This ti they found it quickly.
The beaver curled up deep in the amber liquid along with the cat.
Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
He imdiately grabbed both of them and turned around swiftly.
But...
He noticed the ti fish quietly staying in place.
Its body had begun to be assimilated by the surrounding amber liquid—what was flowing from its scales was actually the sa amber liquid, or rather, blood.
"Alas."
"I’ve been in the River of Cosmic Light for so long."
"In the end, I still have to lt here with it."
The ti fish’s voice carried a hint of reluctance, its whiskers waving toward Li Ye: "Go, go, the River of Cosmic Light is not a place for mundane beings."
It sank to the black riverbed, silted with mud.
It closed its eyes.
Li Ye, who originally planned to leave, stopped and directly said:
"Co with ."
"Acknowledge as your master, and I can use my spiritual power to maintain your existence."
The fish remained silent.
But Li Ye did not give it any ti to think.
He directly grabbed it and fled the place with it in his arms.
During this process, the fish struggled slightly, seemingly resisting yet receptive.
In the end, it remained motionless.
— It didn’t really want to die; it was just following the "rules." If it tried to escape, the Cosmic River Spirit would certainly kill it.
It made a gamble,
to see if Li Ye could indeed take it away.
Unexpectedly, it actually worked.
Li Ye took it and directly left that place full of amber liquid, arriving at the place where the beavers had built a dam.
But its two whiskers began to fade,
losing the special power from the River of Cosmic Light.
Even its body started to change, eventually transforming into a gray, dusty carp, looking almost like a stone fish at first glance.
It could not even convey its consciousness anymore.
With a flip of its belly, it was Li Ye who quickly picked it up and casually tossed it into a makeshift fish basket.
Inside, it poked its head out, cautiously observing the surroundings, blowing bubbles out of its mouth.
As if trying to say sothing.
But Li Ye no longer had the energy to pay attention to it.
Because.
In the not-so-distant, rapidly flowing water of the Cosmic Light River, a small dam was surprisingly standing, with beavers lying on it, utterly exhausted.
But they indeed accomplished it.
Nine-colored radiance entwined materials resembling dry branches, using river mud as an adhesive, stood firmly in the middle of the river—since the river had no banks, everywhere was the center.
"Truly, you’ve worked hard."
Li Ye petted each beaver, sending his spiritual qi into their bodies.
Perhaps they didn’t lack spiritual qi, as the favor of the Heavenly Venerate was still with them, and should continue to accompany them.
But his comforting made them feel much more at ease.
Although they had already beco a kind of spirit demon, they sprawled before Li Ye without any decorum, their big bellies bulging, often chirping or snuggling against Li Ye’s arm.
But, how to say.
Even though they were "chubby," they were still adorable.
If they were the human race...
Li Ye had such a frightening thought.
He quickly shook his head, dismissing the idea.
It was truly terrifying.
In any case.
After comforting the beavers for a good while,
he reached out and summoned the Xiangshui Tree.
In this peculiar place, it seed to have undergone so unknown changes, its branches more solidified rather than the semi-transparent illusory texture it had outside.
It didn’t even need Li Ye’s control.
It grew many small roots on its own, directly inserting them into the dam’s gaps, rooting itself in this place.
These roots didn’t affect the dam’s original ability to filter and slow the river water, but instead, further firmly fixed the dam in the river’s center.
And it began absorbing the river water for "evolution."
Even more astonishing, it seed to help the Nine-Colored Earth Radiance undergo a transformation.
In any case.
It belonged here by nature.
Upon arriving, so previously undiscovered wonders began to manifest, filling Li Ye’s heart with joy.
If so.
Then he should be able to frequently see the beavers.
Without being blocked by the surging cosmos, unable to helplessly gaze at this place from outside, unable to extend a helping hand.
He humd an unknown tune.
He began using the Xiangshui Tree to construct a small space structure.
It was a painting.
Depicting a long river sprinkled with starlight, with no source or destination in sight, winding its way across the canvas, stretching into the unknown cosmic universe.
This Dharma thod was actually learned from Senior Wa Yi.
Rendering the illusory into reality.
The canvas itself served as a protection for the internal space.
Even in an environnt like this, it could remain safe, impervious to the river’s erosion or the passage of ti here.
Li Ye hung it on the branches of the Xiangshui Tree.
Then with a wave of his hand, he said:
"Let’s go."
"Co with and have a look."
He dove headfirst into the painting.
The beavers naturally didn’t hesitate to follow right behind him, entering the painting together.
Inside the painting, the marine tree appeared sowhat desolate.
Apart from the seemingly starlit river, there was nothing else.
But even so, the beavers were very happy.
"Chirp chirp!"
They exclaid excitedly.
