The fourth layer of the Celestial Palace compared to the third is even more...
Empty.
Everywhere the eye can see, where the divine sense reaches, there are warm golden clouds. Even the sunlight, from an unknown source, spills down warmly, covering everything in brilliance. There’s a faint golden Spiritual Qi floating in the air.
Makes one feel sleepy.
Even cultivators like Li Ye with strong divine sense feel this way; it is indeed quite fascinating.
However, he is truly curious about the truth of Xiguang Village.
So he patiently walked slowly, distractedly admiring the changes in the scenery along the way.
Su Ya simply tossed out a pillow, comfortably sitting cross-legged on it, with spiritual power creating several arms to sort various materials and pills, yet he was also listening.
The Spirit God glanced at them and indeed had no particular thoughts.
Internally, he was even a bit joyful.
Actually, he has been here for a very long ti, unable to leave the Celestial Palace, and truly needed soone to chat with him. Otherwise, the wear and tear of ti might make him indifferent and dull.
Even last ti when the Sect Leader caught him and punished him, he chatted quite happily with those inmates, so he voluntarily stayed for decades. It wasn’t until he sensed Li Ye coming that he was willing to co out.
Thinking of this, his tone lightened considerably:
"Actually, my master is not of the Human Race, but of the Golden Sand Race."
"And she’s the most unique among the Golden Sand, the Sand Blood Whale."
"Unlike ordinary Golden Sand Race, my master and her people live among the clouds, wrapping themselves in clouds, only landing on the ground when absolutely necessary."
Oh?
This is indeed sothing new.
Li Ye recalled the ancient texts but found no records on this, thus he cald his thoughts, quietly waiting for the Spirit God to continue.
The Spirit God’s voice carried a deep reminiscence:
"Sand Blood Whales are exceedingly unique. Though they are naturally born from the cloud energy, they possess human flesh and blood, able to nurture many lives."
"It is said they originate from the very beginning, created by the ancestors of the Four Seasons Sect, to create life."
"My master was one of the best — she, after her Golden Core stage, voluntarily joined the Four Seasons Sect, began learning the art of transformation to create unique beings using her own flesh and blood."
Her womb is both a Grotto Heaven and her Cave Mansion, capable of housing all creatures for them to breed and thrive.
Wow.
Experints with one’s own flesh; this is indeed a determined person.
Hearing this, Li Ye was even more astonished and interrupted: "So she created, or rather, nurtured so from the Human Race?"
Actually, to be more precise, it should be the Spirit Race.
Because to this day, the Human Race cannot be "created." After all, they are a natural Tao body in many legends, close to Tao, and naturally can’t be created casually.
Anything mixed with other elents cannot be considered pure Human Race.
"Yes and no," the Spirit God replied, "Wanting to create the Human Race is, of course, impossible. The master rely injected so strength into the Human Race’s bloodline and then used herself to nurture... offspring."
He seed to have hesitated for a mont before finding a suitable term.
Offspring.
"But if they are her beloved offspring, how could she let them suffer such hardships?" Li Ye raised questions.
Honestly speaking.
Even though Li Ye doesn’t have offspring, he knows he’d want to provide the best for his children, certainly wouldn’t let them suffer.
Especially since the bloodline connection can’t be severed, didn’t the ancestor ever consider what kind of hardships Xiguang Village endured?
He admits that sotis he’s quite unreasonable.
But when it cos to protecting one’s own.
Sotis reason is out of the question. Even if the big picture is vital, but if the big picture sacrifices one’s offspring, then ultimately, it is still not capable enough.
Cultivators are already the cream of the crop among adults; making decisions shouldn’t be too embarrassing, naturally should have it all!
Hearing his question.
The Spirit God swallowed the words he originally intended to say.
He took a deep breath before continuing:
"In short, due to reasons you know, the master, although left so special inheritance for them, didn’t intervene much."
"Until you unexpectedly entered Xiguang Village, you rescued them."
"Those inheritances, naturally, belong to you, no doubt."
Actually, after hearing this, Li Ye already didn’t have a good impression of the ancestor he hadn’t t—she, as one of the ancestors of the Four Seasons Sect, if she truly cared, protecting one’s own wouldn’t need considering.
Even if it is said not to interfere with the lower world, one can always say it involves one’s descendants, no one could say anything.
But due to receiving her inheritance and favor, speaking too harshly indeed seems unsuitable, yet he is considering whether to continue seeking treasures on the Celestial Palace Ninth Floor.
Su Ya apparently realized this too.
Directly asked: "Do you still want to go up; if not, how about we search elsewhere?"
The expression on the Spirit God suddenly beca sowhat anxious.
He opened his mouth: "You two..."
"Go have a look."
"I too want to et the ancestor, to ask so questions in person."
Li Ye gave Su Ya a reassuring look: "No need to worry."
But Su Ya still patted his shoulder, softly said: "I know you wholeheartedly want an answer, but sotis the answer isn’t that important, so why trouble yourself?"
