It’s said that a long ti ago, when our Four Seasons Sect was being established, one of the friends our ancestor invited to help was the Great Wangshu.
Our ancestors ca with the Great Wangshu, but both the ancestor and the Great Wangshu have been dormant for a long ti. Every year, the Moon Liquid Pearl is used to maintain their forms."
Having said this, Wang Yin thought for a mont and decided to say more: "It’s said that this Silver Moon Grass was cultivated by the Great Wangshu and our ancestor together, and it contains the divine techniques of the Great Wangshu.
It’s a pity... Hmm? Ah?!"
Before she finished speaking, she saw a wisp of silvery white moon fire rise from Li Ye’s palm, elegant and pure.
Wang Yin imdiately sensed a change in her state of mind.
No wonder she had felt a comfortable aura from this senior brother earlier; it turned out to be the Moon-controlling Spirit Fire.
She quickly said, "Senior Brother, using this fla for alchemy would be very effective for both the Great Wangshu and the ancestor.
Could you help the alchemist in refining pills? The price of the pills will be converted into contributions to you and the alchemist."
Oh?
Li Ye blinked: "Can I designate who will refine them?"
"Of course you can."
"I can help you make contact right now."
...
In no ti.
Su Ya was hastily called over by a decree from the Steward Hall, reportedly related to the Wangshu Moon God.
He rushed over imdiately.
He ended up arriving at Li Ye’s cave mansion.
And he t Li Ye, who was having a delightful conversation with Wang Yin.
"..."
Even soone like Su Ya, who was accustod to Li Ye’s antics, couldn’t help but feel envious. What had this guy done this ti to be treated this way by soone from the Wangshu Jade Rabbit clan?
You should know that these folks only interfere in matters related to the Wangshu Moon God; otherwise, they are extrely aloof abroad.
"Senior Brother Su!" As the host of the cave mansion, Li Ye naturally knew who had arrived, quickly waving his hand and introducing, "This is Dao You Wang Yin from the Wangshu Jade Rabbit clan.
Dao You Wang Yin, this is Senior Brother Su, with whom I’ve cooperated many tis before. He is absolutely capable of refining suitable pills.
Senior Brother Su, I’ve called you here to use the Moon-controlling Spirit Fire to refine pills."
Su Ya had already cald down completely and said calmly, "I have refined pills of the Moon-controlling series before, just leave it to ."
Wang Yin nodded happily: "Thank you, senior brothers."
She looked at Li Ye: "Could I ask Senior Brother Li to grant access to so space in the cave mansion? I need to summon so materials for Senior Brother Su."
Li Ye ntally controlled the stone tablet of the cave mansion, then gestured with his hand: "Junior Sister, feel free to proceed."
He then saw that under Junior Sister Wang Yin’s head, a pair of fluffy rabbit ears suddenly sprang up and stood erect, emitting ripples of spiritual power from beside the ears.
A beam of moonlight abruptly pierced through the heavenly do.
Imdiately after, a heap of crystalline jade flowers, glowing like a jade dish, rained down and piled into a small hill on the ground.
Only then did Wang Yin press her ears back down.
"These are the jade flowers cultivated from the jade trees in the Wangshu Grotto Heaven. Using these and the Moon Liquid Pearl as the main ingredients, one can refine the Jade Moon Pill. Here is the pill formula."
Wang Yin solemnly handed a jade scroll to Su Ya, whose hand couldn’t help trembling when he received it.
This is a unique spirit pill of the Wangshu Jade Rabbit clan!
It’s said that only a few Golden Core True n in the sect can refine it. Even his sister hadn’t had the chance to see it, but today, he had the opportunity to behold this mysterious pill formula.
After Wang Yin left, Su Ya looked at Li Ye, with excitent still in his eyes, making the latter almost shiver with goosebumps.
"Senior Brother Su."
"You should familiarize yourself quickly."
"If this task is ssed up, you probably won’t fare well."
—That statent was indeed correct.
Li Ye did have the authority to choose his collaborator.
But if Su Ya really dragged his feet, the sect would surely make him make up for his lack of knowledge to avoid any issues.
Su Ya, of course, understood the seriousness of this matter.
Imdiately, he obtained so Moon-controlling Spirit Fire from Li Ye, then gathered all the necessary materials for alchemy in the cave mansion, and asked Li Ye for a quiet chamber to go into seclusion.
Fortunately, Li Ye had prepared so quiet chambers beforehand with the spiritual bamboo of the cave mansion; otherwise, Su Ya would have needed to make one on the spot.
After sending Su Ya off to seclusion.
Li Ye casually found a place to lie down. For the ti being, this matter was settled, just waiting for news from the disciples stationed in the marketplace.
He initially intended to see if there were any suitable tea trees to plant but hadn’t watched for long before his divine sense noticed sothing unusual with the spiritual bamboo of the cave mansion behind him.
"What is this."
Li Ye set down the jade scroll in his hand, and upon a thorough sweep with his divine sense, discovered that those bamboo wood ants inside were... transforming.
Indeed.
He watched as a bamboo wood ant elongated its body, stretching its originally tiny form to a full inch, even rearranging its antennae and legs to different positions.
It was like clay, capable of changing at will.
"No, that’s not right."
"...Ah?"
Li Ye’s divine sense extended deeper into the bamboo house, and he astonishingly discovered a bamboo wood ant stretching and morphing its body into a small nest, protecting the eggs within.
As he continued to scan, he even saw bamboo wood ants embedding themselves into the nest, becoming part of it.
Most interestingly, if not for his ticulous inspection and the amplification afforded by his position in the cave mansion for divine sense perception, he might not have realized that the faint green hue was actually from the transforming bamboo wood ants.
So, has the characteristic of the spiritual bamboo in the cave mansion been passed on to the bamboo wood ants?
Li Ye simply extended his hand, summoning the Ant Queen he had previously bonded with. What unfolded next was even more astonishing.
The palm-sized, plump Ant Queen, upon arriving, morphed into his likeness, even awkwardly lifting the corners of its mouth into a smile.
The pseudo "Li Ye" was as thin as paper, with clothes and skin tinged green, and that human-like grin at the mouth’s corner...
"..."
He almost couldn’t help but throw a divine technique to obliterate it.
Dare to transform so recklessly?
"Quickly change back." Li Ye’s tone was serious: "Arbitrarily transforming into the appearance of other cultivators will provoke hatred. Even here, you cannot do such things."
Since this creature was one of his newly acquired spiritual insects, Li Ye felt the need to properly discipline it, even exerting his spiritual pressure.
The Ant Queen trembled imdiately, quickly reverting to its original form.
Seeing it indeed frightened, Li Ye sighed slightly and softened his tone: "I understand you’ve suddenly acquired a new ability and wish to show , but you still need to be cautious."
This Ant Queen, being a Foundation Establishnt stage spiritual insect, naturally understood Li Ye’s words and was imdiately very thankful.
A small pair of wings sprouted from its back, and it brushed against Li Ye’s ankle affectionately.
Only then did Li Ye leisurely start asking it questions.
The more he asked, the more peculiar his expression beca.
Because these ants were not rely altering their bodies but using ingested bamboo powder and sap, mixing them in their crops to create "bamboo mud," allowing them to stretch and transform at will.
The bamboo mud produced by the bamboo wood ants could substitute for their bodies, controlled freely or even combined to form a massive "structure."
"What an intriguing ability."
Li Ye rubbed his chin, an idea suddenly occurring to him.
"Bring all the ants here, and transform according to my instructions..."
He directed the ants to transform, watching them slowly rge into a bamboo house about five zhang tall, looking almost indistinguishable from an ordinary bamboo house at first glance.
But as soon as Li Ye sat in the rocking chair at the entrance of the bamboo house, the house began moving, with ant legs suddenly appearing at its base, walking forward slowly.
Though not fast, it was incredibly stable, with no jolts or bumps.
Li Ye watched the snowflakes drifting from the sky and the scenery retreating along the way, and contentedly reclined in the rocking chair, closing his eyes to rest.
Inevitably, the moving bamboo house caught the attention of wandering beavers, and in no ti, a crowd of beavers clambered up into the bamboo house using each other for leverage.
They dared not make a sound.
Their small eyes curiously scanned the scene outside and the décor inside the bamboo house, encircling Li Ye before lying down in a circle and falling into a deep sleep.
The bamboo house carried on its unhurried journey.
