The beaver, who had been anxiously pacing, took out the Treasure Lotus Lamp imdiately.
Immortal music and the compassionate fla reflected each other, creating an extraordinarily magnificent scene upon the snow, even overshadowing the moonlight above.
Li Ye glanced down at the beaver, which winked back at him and proudly puffed up its plump chest, bringing a rare smile to Li Ye’s face.
—The current situation with the Flint Fire Crystal Insect was that its own power was insufficient for making an "I want it all" choice, but with Li Ye’s support, it could naturally achieve "I want everything."
At the mont vitality was infused, the Flint Fire Crystal Insects, which had been in hibernation to conserve their own spiritual power, instantly awakened.
Without any words needed, they imdiately spat out a golden-red fire seed, rolling around amidst the Taiyin Moon Power released by the Silver Moon Grass.
The fire seed gradually beca dusted with silver.
Countless Flint Fire Crystal Insects around, along with the Silver Moon Grass that Li Ye had ticulously selected for transplantation over ti, began to shine, with golden-red and silver radiance enveloping the fire seed.
Li Ye originally thought this state needed to last for a while.
But to his surprise.
After just the duration of one incense stick, Li Ye felt the accumulation of pitch-black tribulation clouds in the sky, clearly targeting the three Flint Fire Crystal Insects.
Demon Core Tribulation.
To undergo tribulation so swiftly!
If they could survive the tribulation, they could then condense their own Demon Core. Although not equivalent to the Golden Core Period of the Human Race, it would signify that half of their body firmly stepped into the Golden Core realm.
After condensing the Demon Core, it would just take so ti for them to successfully transform and reach the Golden Core Period.
Even more unexpectedly for Li Ye, the Silver Moon Grass also conveyed a consciousness, and within the surrounding flowing moonlight, a pill erged with a silver interior and a golden-red exterior.
The Demon Cores of the Silver Moon Grass and Flint Fire Crystal Insects were exactly opposite.
Yet they were exceptionally intimate with each other.
Spiraling around, under the firelight of the Treasure Lotus Lamp and the immortal glow of the Emotion Song, surrounded by the spiritual power of countless Flint Fire Crystal Insects and Silver Moon Grass, they charged straight into the cloud layers.
In monts, Flint Fire and moonlight burst within the dark clouds, clearly usually harmless but now giving a ferociously explosive feeling.
Seemingly attracting so consciousness’s attention.
From within the Four Seasons Jade Pendant, two consciousnesses arrived in succession.
First was Wangshu’s voice as gentle as water:
"They are my kin, how can such a major event as tribulation crossing go without notifying ? Let in, I will help them cross the tribulation!"
As Wangshu’s voice faded, another robust and fiery masculine voice sounded:
"Mountain Spirit, Lady Xiang..."
"I wish to take the Flint Fire Crystal Insects as my kin."
"When you learn the Chapter of the East Monarch in the Nine Songs in the future, they will still be your subordinates."
These two deities’ consciousnesses were eager beyond compare.
Seemingly afraid they would miss out on such wonderful matters by even a mont.
For anyone else, to be actively courted and eagerly awaited like this, it would absolutely be a good thing, but Li Ye was sowhat hesitant.
No.
With no hesitation, he responded directly: "You two, I once promised them everlasting freedom. I know becoming your kin is a good thing, but I still hope they can make that choice themselves now.
Patriarch Wangshu, can you withdraw your blessing?
I will help them cross the Celestial Tribulation."
—He wished to use this Celestial Tribulation to set the Flint Fire Crystal Insects and Silver Moon Grass free; Wangshu’s blessing was indeed useful, but it might impede their path to the Divine Path in the future.
At least Li Ye thought the Immortal Dao was a more carefree and unfettered pursuit.
This answer was obviously unexpected for the two deities, they were slightly stunned, especially Wangshu, her look of disappointnt was scarcely concealed.
"You little fellow."
She sighed, "You clearly know what I give cannot be retracted, and yet you say such things.
Yet I refuse to comply with your wishes.
As long as it’s under the moonlight I, Wangshu, control, these Silver Moon Grasses will still receive my blessings.
No cost required."
With her voice fading along with the moonlight, East Monarch’s voice followed: "Never mind."
"Since you’ve made your calculation, that is for the best."
"But since Patriarch Wangshu has given her blessing, I cannot fall behind. You should first familiarize yourself with East Monarch’s power."
"When you can learn it, it will also be easier and more carefree."
A thread of fla shot forth from the Four Seasons Jade Pendant.
Instantly, it fell into Li Ye’s palm.
Li Ye didn’t examine it imdiately, his full attention was focused on the Flint Fire Crystal Insects and Silver Moon Grass undergoing the tribulation.
Actually, the intensity of this Thunder Tribulation was indeed very high.
After all, these creatures had much external help, and the Celestial Dao is not foolish. If so much external help wasn’t penalized, how many more cultivators would cross tribulations?
Through the Glazed Bead Bracelet, Li Ye could feel the anger of the Celestial Tribulation, and a bit of... powerlessness.
It seed to question why it was him once again, how many tis has Li Ye interfered in the Celestial Tribulations.
To this, Li Ye could only say that for the future, more would be better, and pretended not to notice.
As long as he wasn’t wronged himself, he believed with the good deeds he had done, no matter how, the Celestial Dao wouldn’t bla him.
Those favored always act confidently.
Ti thus quietly passed.
When finally the Celestial Tribulation ceased.
The snow on the ground was already ablaze with Flint Fire, the golden-red fire lights danced with silver light and petals, seemingly acquiring their own consciousness, leaping and running freely.
Faintly visible within them, the Flint Fire Crystal Insects and Silver Moon Grass drifted with the wind.
At this mont, they were no longer confined by insect and plant forms, flas elevated the wind and light, carrying their Demon Cores and souls as they ran wildly.
Clearly, they were in high spirits, even brushing lightly against Li Ye’s cheeks, the cool and hot touch filled him with comfort.
"So this is freedom."
"And this flower..."
Li Ye looked down at the half-silver, half-golden-red flower.
The Flint Fire Crystal Insects below the flower had already wandered off with the Silver Moon Grass; it had no roots yet was miraculously imbued with abundant vitality.
Centered around it, ripples spread outward.
It was evidently causing the Flint Fire to burn on the snow.
[Na]: Splendorous Fire Moon Flower
[Mood]: ?
[State]: A miraculous flower ford by the transformation of the Flint Fire Crystal Insects and Silver Moon Grass, it will gradually produce Flint Fire and Moon-controlling Spirit Fire seeds and slowly transform the surrounding environnt.
As long as there’s enough "fuel" and "moonlight," it can continuously produce and transform.
The current estimated production rate is: two per year.
"It can produce fire seeds."
"Not bad."
Li Ye finally let out a sigh of relief.
After the Silver Moon Grass and Flint Fire Crystal Insects have ford their Demon Cores, their lifespans beco very long, even potentially longer than his own current remaining years, so he no longer needed to fear parting from them.
Only now did he have the mood to look down.
The gift from East Monarch was still in his hand.
It was a peach branch.
To be precise, a peach branch burning with the Fire of the Sun.
Within the shadows it cast, one could glimpse a scene entirely different from the mundane world—a range of mountains shrouded in perpetual mist, and upon them, an enormous peach tree seemingly blocking the sky.
Under the tree, two deities were gazing at him.
One of them was holding two plump Flint Fire Crystal Insects in his palm.
"Hmm!?"
Li Ye instantly recognized where this was.
Dusuo Mountain!
Although most of the souls of those two Flint Fire Crystal Insects had rged with the small world of this Cave Mansion, a trace of their True Spirit still went to Dusuo Mountain.
East Monarch said that was his duty.
Could it be that the Chapter "East Monarch" in Nine Songs involved matters of life and death?
Could he actually find those two Flint Fire Crystal Insects at Dusuo Mountain?
That would be...
Wonderful.
Li Ye silently clenched his fist and turned to leave.
Going to Dusuo Mountain would likely require so help, and he hoped what he recently created, the Dangkang Flower Ginseng Pig, could gain him that opportunity.
