Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel

Chapter 842: Chapter 463: You’re Grounded at Home

Later on.

Li Ye sat atop the mountain peak.

Gazing at the clouds that constantly changed.

Like a mercurial future and an untouchable past.

Unfortunately, with a breeze, they dissipated.

He reached out, trying to grasp a wisp of the ethereal Cloud Qi, but surprisingly, even with his late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, he couldn’t hold it. The Cloud Qi playfully slipped from his hands and vanished without a trace.

"Sigh."

"Clearly, I’m already so strong, so why do I still have such sentiments?"

Li Ye looked to the side: "Ancestor Master Lixi, please enlighten me."

Lixi, who had been silent all this while, looked at him: "Asking me? Even immortals sometimes have the melancholy of the changing seasons. Why don’t you plant something instead?

How long has it been since you planted anything?

The sect doesn’t need your worry right now, just rest assured and relax."

She stood up.

Stretched lazily towards the sun.

Her fingers pointed forward, as if trying to grasp the radiance of the sun.

But unfortunately, even she couldn’t hold the sun in her palm, just like Li Ye couldn’t hold the white clouds.

Then she shrugged: "Well, do you get what I mean now?"

"..."

Li Ye’s mouth twitched slightly.

Helplessly, he said: "I understand what you mean, so should I just... go rest?"

"Not quite, I just saw a very familiar face, I need to have a chat with her now."

"Go, go then!"

"You’ve reached late-stage Nascent Soul, you don’t need our approval anymore."

Lixi watched as Li Ye left with light steps, his celestial figure against the light seemed as if it were about to melt, and she narrowed her eyes.

She looked at Mie Ye, who had appeared at some point, and coldly said: "That kid borrowed your power, you wouldn’t still be thinking of taking your real body back, would you?

I’d say you’d be better off being someone else’s sword spirit. Isn’t there often such talk in the Upper Realm about falling off cliffs, getting rejected, or having spirit roots dug up and then getting some ring with a grandfather inside?

You’re getting on in years, can’t you just admit you’re old?

This new wave, as soon as they come into contact with Immortal power from the Immortal Realm, should quickly transform, and then, you know, you’ll surely get beaten up!"

Although this seemed like concern.

The veiled schadenfreude couldn’t be hidden.

Mie Ye chuckled.

Patted her on the shoulder.

"..."

"What are you doing?"

Lixi nearly jumped up.

Words have always been a Dharma method to dissolve loneliness.

She didn’t have Su Xing’s Emotion Song that could communicate with all things, so naturally, she could only honestly banter a bit with her old friend. After all, in such long years, there was only so much to do.

"I’ve been wondering why you won’t go back." Mie Ye looked at Lixi, his eyes clear: "Your Mediation Creation is a magic of Nuwa, who is the first saint to prove her Tao.

No matter how troublesome, it can’t affect the Saint’s Dojo.

Anywhere you till the fields is just farming, so why waste time coming here."

This time, Lixi didn’t reply.

But she heard a teasing voice from behind:

"After separating Divine Soul here for ten thousand years, don’t you understand what she really means."

Su Xing Celestial Venerate appeared behind them without anyone noticing, then reached out and pinched a light leaf that appeared in the void.

He gently blew beside his lips—

Melodious music rose along with the silver-blue starlight Immortal Ribbon, falling to the ground, confined within this small world, growing entwined branches on the ground.

The branches began as soft starlight like a river, but interconnected, it was as if galaxies collided, bursting with dazzling sparks, like fireworks often released by mortals.

Even the two powerful beings were entranced.

Then...

They found themselves trapped within the entwined branches.

But the music was melodious, able to condense the bonds of emotion with sound, winding tender, even the Divine Sense that had been cultivated to be indestructible for who knows how long was soon turned into soft murmurs by the music.

"Hmm?"

When the two realized something was wrong, Su Xing Celestial Venerate had already slipped away, not leaving a trace of starlight.

Just leaving them face to face.

The entwined branches embraced and grew towards each other, the surface shimmering with specks of starlight.

Like hands about to hold.

With a note attached—

"Forced melons are sweet!"

"Tested by Su Xing of the Four Seasons Sect!"

Lixi: "..."

She closed her eyes, unwilling to speak.

But then heard Mie Ye’s voice as gentle as the wind:

"I heard the Four Seasons Sect has two special Spiritual Objects, one being the Thousand Blessings Tree, which requires mortals to personally till the land and diligently cultivate to obtain, tastes good, and fills you up."

"The other is the Myriad Harmony Silkworm. Its silk can only be seen clearly under candlelight, yet it fears Spiritual Power immensely but braves the wind and snow, wearing it is comfortable and warm."

"Together they make a harmonious union of men farming and women weaving—or women farming and men weaving, whatever works, would you be willing to grant this object to me, would I be fortunate enough to study it well with you."

"It can also be exchanged for this object."

Lixi opened her eyes.

Only to see a small jade-carved sword being handed to her.

That small sword was made from Kunlun jade, a treasure of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, only obtained by the thick-skinned Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerate to gift to beloved students and satisfied juniors as fine materials for swordmaking.

But also...

Mie Ye’s Lifebound Magical Treasure.

Despite the jade’s gentle luster, it shone so brightly she couldn’t open her eyes.

...

Meanwhile.

Li Ye had already arrived at the Su Family.

Yes, his rare break naturally called for his friend Senior Brother Su Ya, to see if he’s once again hopelessly engrossed in Alchemy.

And to check on... Su Yu.

Yet he forgot his current status.
