As for those impurities... we’ll talk about them later.
One must not be indecisive.
This magic is specifically used by the Four Seasons Sect to communicate with heaven and earth and soul spirits, especially effective in communicating with soul spirits.
But after all, it’s a Golden Core level magic, which requires not just an understanding of the magic, but also sufficient spiritual power to support it.
After finishing the drawing, Li Ye’s complexion noticeably turned pale.
On Iron Bull’s forehead, however, there appeared a vivid Phoenix, its feathers still burning, as if it was about to spread its wings and fly at any mont.
Li Ye instructed him:
"According to the technique I taught you."
"Now sit cross-legged and inject your divine sense into the earth."
Iron Bull hurriedly complied.
Following Li Ye’s thod, he tried hard to inject the divine sense borrowed from Li Ye into the earth.
The cold, hard earth was like a frozen corpse.
His faint divine sense traversed through his ridians, like a small boat in a raging storm, which without Li Ye’s guidance, would have been swallowed by the storm imdiately.
Fortunately.
This pain didn’t last long.
His plea coincided with the Phoenix’s lingering obsession.
Deep in the earth, a spirituality that had been dormant for who knows how long was awakened, instantly encompassing his probing divine sense, erupting upward like a volcano.
"Boom!"
The ground shook violently.
Under everyone’s gaze, the ground swelled up.
Soon after, a gigantic tree with green and red hues quickly grew, reaching seven or eight zhang tall in just an instant, elegant and majestic.
Even more miraculous was that the branches at the top intertwined, forming the shape of a graceful bird, dragging long, colorful tail feathers that drooped to the ground.
The mont it sprouted.
Warm flas dispelled the bone-chilling cold brought by the eternal winter night, making everyone feel a strange sense of closeness.
It seed as if this bird was their ancestor.
The connection in the bloodline was an indelible bond.
"It’s done."
Li Ye looked at the green and blood-red phoenix tree, sighed in relief, as expected.
Sure enough, the Human Race here all have Phoenix bloodline.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have lasted so long; demonic qi would erode one’s mind, gradually becoming violent and irritable.
Fortunately, he arrived in ti, and there’s hope for salvation.
But the situation of this phoenix tree...
[Na]: Snow Phoenix Wutong
[Mood]: None
[Status]: A Primordial Spirit Plant born from the remains of a Phoenix, it will strive to protect what it can, but deeply buried in the bloodline is an indelible "White Demon Demonic Qi" that will continue to contaminate it.
[Bindable]: Any Spirit Race willing to sacrifice themselves, using flesh, bone, and soul to awaken the Phoenix’s spirituality.
Li Ye frowned.
Even the Phoenix cannot resist the White Demon Demonic Qi.
The situation here is becoming increasingly complicated.
...
Not far from the phoenix tree.
Li Ye looked at the children playing under the tree, the phoenix tree bringing warmth as spring, isolating the cold winter.
It’s a wonderful feeling never experienced before by the children, each of their faces filled with genuine smiles.
Especially Iron Bull.
He could even draw a strand of the phoenix tree’s power, astonishing his companions.
The adults and cultivators stood at a distance.
Almost the whole village gathered here, enjoying the protection brought by the phoenix tree.
Fu You’s face never stopped smiling.
He thanked Li Ye again: "It’s truly thanks to you, Immortal, otherwise, we could never have discovered such a divine tree beneath the ground."
Li Ye waved his hand, asking:
"Where are your fields?"
Fu You imdiately extended his hand, inviting: "Over here!"
The leader led Li Ye towards the east, and soon, they saw a fenced area, about seven or eight mu of farmland.
Inside, the previously seen swollen rice lotuses were neatly planted, and so slender, bipedal spirit beasts were busy in the fields.
They carried small hoes, diligently loosening soil and applying fertilizer.
Whenever snow accumulated, they would imdiately transport the snow away, not letting it pile up in the fields.
Isn’t that a weasel?
[Na]: Clear Turbid Yellow Spirit
[Mood]: Anxious, busy, hungry
[State]: Descendants born of the Yellow Spirit in the Jianmu World, in an environnt where demonic and turbid qi rise, have already worn away most of their spiritual qi, yet still rember to help cultivators manage the nursery fields.
So, these are the descendants of the Jianmu Yellow Immortal.
No wonder.
Li Ye knows very well that those "Immortals" living in the Jianmu World have long imprinted the protection of mortals into their bones.
This is a legacy rooted in their bloodline.
Even now, being eroded by demonic qi and not having enough to eat, they still help people manage the fields in their own way.
Perhaps it was the pure spiritual qi belonging to the Four Seasons Sect that attracted the weasels’ attention to Li Ye.
They imdiately gathered around, carrying their hoes.
One of the bolder ones used its paw to touch the hem of Li Ye’s Taoist robe, and then excitedly squeaked and chattered.
Li Ye silently took out a pile of dates and handed them to them, watching them devour the dates one by one, his feelings grew increasingly complicated.
"Thanks to them," Fu You also sighed, "they take care of almost all of these fields, without them, we wouldn’t even be able to save the annual harvest."
"You should definitely thank them."
Li Ye gave the last of the dates to the Yellow Immortals.
Then he lifted his head, grasping the fragnt of the Earth Book, and his aura changed suddenly.
Using two fingers like a sword, he gently slashed towards the field in front of him.
"Zzzzzz..."
The fire of the Phoenix rose and burned throughout the field, and the demonic qi within lted rapidly, like snow t with sunlight.
At the sa ti.
The vitality brought by the Earth Book irrigated the Pengmi Lotus, and the lotus roots growing underground suddenly arched upwards, then gradually beca bigger and expanded...
Imdiately after—
"Bang!"
A loud explosion.
All the lotus roots of the Pengmi Lotus burst open.
The red grains of rice scattered into the sky, accompanied by the smoke and firelight from the explosion, like fireworks bursting in the cold night sky, raining down like teors.
After each grain fell, the flas on their surface would continue to burn, regardless of whether it landed on the ground, roof, or simply inside a house.
In any case, the firelight would continue to burn.
Then burn away the demonic qi spreading on the ground.
After all the rice grains from the Pengmi Lotus burned out, the air on this winter night was no longer filled with filth, but rather with a scent... of toasted rice.
Li Ye released the fragnt of the Earth Book.
Took a difficult breath, feeling his vision darkening.
Even though the phoenix tree helped stabilize the spiritual qi here and slowly purify the spiritual power, forcibly mobilizing this power to exorcise demons was still too hard.
Moreover, he felt that this world was rejecting him.
In the distance, the sky was tinged with the faint glow of white.
Indicating that dawn was near.
Was it almost dawn so soon?
He didn’t know what would happen if he stayed here after sunrise, but if he didn’t leave now it would definitely be too late.
So he instructed Fu You: "I need to return to my courtyard; co find after sunset."
Fu You quickly nodded.
Imdiately instructing people to escort Li Ye back.
On the way back, Li Ye increasingly felt sothing was wrong, as sticky demonic qi began to rise from the snowy ground here, and more and more white shadows lood in the distant mountains.
They seed to be starting to riot.
The people escorting him clearly knew what was about to happen, quickening their pace, finally returning to the front of Li Ye’s courtyard before it was fully light.
Seeing Li Ye enter the courtyard, they quickly left.
Not even having ti to say a word.
Li Ye looked in the direction they left, instinctively feeling sothing was off.
Above the snowy forest, which had begun to twist and blur, a pale sun was about to rise.
But as it rose.
Suddenly, the space around the sun seed to warp for just a mont.
It was as if a voiceless wail resounded through the heavens.
The sun then began to fall downward.
This sudden change was too unexpected, even for Li Ye who didn’t anticipate it.
He furrowed his brows, just about to take a closer look.
The blur of the snow forest had already vanished.
A few squirrels bounced into the courtyard, bringing with them the pure spiritual qi of the biting cold wind.
There was no longer a trace of demonic qi.
