Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel

But this guy only cares about tying things up, not dealing with them. Every time the fruit cracks, it's the Moon God Wangshu who catches them. If it weren't for Wangshu, it would have been like dumplings dropping, one drowned for each that fell into the sea.

The Golden Cores responsible for observing the Hell Transformation Diagram have become somewhat numb.

Just how many living beings has this Hell Path harmed?

It's been a full year and a half, with hundreds or thousands of fruits falling every day, yet it seems unending.

Spring Sun Taoist also found it quite strange.

She sat in a hall built on Ruoquan Island, in front of a Demon-Suppressing Tree, and casually asked:

"Why are you keeping so many souls?"

Under the lush shade of the Demon-Suppressing Tree, the monk sat cross-legged on the ground.

He calmly replied:

"No matter what you ask me now, I won't answer you."

"I actually look forward to you completely erasing my True Spirit, and then let's see if your Four Seasons Demon Sect can still control the Hell Transformation Diagram."

This meaningless exchange had continued for a year, and logically, Spring Sun Taoist should have been accustomed to it by now.

She originally stayed here not because of this guy, but to see if Li Ye could complete his cultivation.

After all, Li Ye had been planting the seed of a demon in his Taoist Heart for a very long time.

To this day, that Ruo Wood still emits Demonic Qi and Spiritual Qi daily, yet it cannot maintain a balanced state, which worried her.

But now, hearing the monk speak this way.

A trace of indescribable disgust flashed through Spring Sun Taoist's eyes, and she said coldly, "At worst, I can go find Compassion, ask Him to use you as soil to plant the noble fruit. Do you really think without you, we can't control the Hell Path.

Then you might want to think about this.

Why are so many demons suppressed in the Demon Suppression Valley, and why is Compassion guarding it?"

The monk was puzzled.

"Are you saying..."

"Hehe, anyway, you're about to experience it yourself." Spring Sun Taoist stood up, having lost the desire to communicate with him.

As she walked out, she said:

"Using you demons as soil, with the noble fruit as the body, beings identical to you can be created, even with nearly identical Divine Souls."

"Though cultivating such a noble fruit consumes many resources, I really don't want to waste time here with you... Hmm?"

She suddenly stopped in her tracks.

The wind around became a little chilly.

This chill is not something the physical body can sense but directly affects the soul, even the soul of a Divinity Transformation.

Not knowing when it started.

The surroundings seemed to have become somewhat "dim."

Though it was still a magnificent palace, a lavish "nursery" built for the monk, those glazed tiles and jade walls appeared a dull gray.

The Spiritual Qi turned "cold."

Everything seemed to have already left the concept of "life."

"Oh?"

A slight smile finally appeared on Spring Sun Taoist's face.

She quickly walked out of the hall, leaving the annoying monk behind, and looked into the distance at the Ruo Wood.

Only to see, centered around the Ruo Wood, strands of gray mist spreading, the tranquil night and these "Death Qi" enveloping everything around.

The lush Spirit Plants remained unaffected.

They continued to grow vigorously, even more so, but in Spring Sun's perception, they were indeed "dead objects."

"Not bad."

Spring Sun Taoist was rather satisfied.

Even she hadn't mastered the resurrection Divine Technique, because honestly, it's very difficult to learn. She tried to learn it once but didn't succeed and was pulled by the Sect Leader to mine for decades.

However, she did know the characteristics of this Divine Technique.

Reviving the dead is actually quite simple. It's about recapturing souls that have entered reincarnation in the Underworld, then injecting flames into the "lifeline" of the physical body, allowing them to live again for a long time.

And the Underworld is essentially no different from the Yang World.

Life and death are just different characteristics of Spiritual Power.

The Underworld also speaks of "growth and decay" — the youngest souls begin to grow, regardless of race, with clear changes.

Even souls have a "life span."

Once the life span in the Yang World ends, another journey in the Underworld begins, until both life and death have come to an end, or reincarnation, or some accident, causing the soul to truly perish.

What ordinary people understand as death, where the soul enters the Underworld and reincarnates, still belongs to the Yang World process.

The Underworld is truly another world.

It can grow, reproduce, and even has trades and towns.

Only those who have practiced special Dharma Methods or are uniquely gifted can peek at or personally visit the scenery of the Underworld.

— Clearly, now Li Ye is standing at this threshold.

"Originally, the Sect Leader intended to let him go to Dusuo Mountain to see if he could learn this Divine Technique, but unexpectedly it's happening ahead of time."

"So it remains to be seen if he can truly shift between life and death, cutting off a part of the Underworld as an imprint for his Divine Technique."

Spring Sun Taoist directly sat cross-legged.

Releasing her nearly limitless sea-like Divine Sense and power, intending to protect Li Ye.

Suddenly.

The moonlight in the Heavenly Dome became unusually bright.

Unlike the previous brightness, this moonlight carried a kind of vibrant vitality, or rather spirituality.

Over the temples of Wangshu Moon God constructed throughout the Tao Furnace Realm, moonlight emerged, day or night, enshrouding the temples.

It washed away all forces in an incredibly domineering yet gentle manner, rendering anyone or anything unable to influence the temples' changes at this moment.

The Moon God's statue bore a compassionate and benevolent smile.

A bright halo appeared behind the statue's head, impartially spreading her Divine Power to all her believers.

Believers touched by the Moon God's power were healed of all ailments, their lifespans increased, their wishes fulfilled.

This situation naturally drew the attention of major powers throughout the Tao Furnace Realm.

Everyone knew.

The Wangshu Moon God, asleep for thousands of years, had awakened.

Why did she suddenly wake up now?

— This was something Spring Sun Taoist didn't understand either.

She looked forward.

An awareness projected to this place.

Transforming into a woman dressed in a very simple moon-white robe, yet as though woven from moonlight and tranquil night, exuding a sacred aura, with her forehead, wrists, and atop her head adorned with transparent, exquisite jewelry.

Although the styles of these jewels and gemstones were numerous, even exceedingly ornate to an extent, they didn't affect her in the slightest.

They were merely simple ornaments.

Just simple adornments.

Her appearance resembled a flourishing young girl, yet her demeanor contained a maternal warmth and inclusivity, her gentle, mysterious silver eyes directly gazing at Spring Sun.

"I'll take care of the protection here."

Wangshu said, "This child calls me sister, after all, and those two should also give me some face and won't make things too difficult for him."

She extended her fair, slender hand.

Gently waved—

"Swish!"

Moonlight silently replaced Spring Sun Taoist's power, while also reflecting the situation on Li Ye's side.

At this moment.

The area around Li Ye was already filled with gray soil.

His silhouette had become devoid of any life, yet somehow exuded a strange vibrancy, holding a bead in his hand.

He squatted down, with a face full of anticipation, and buried it into the ground.

The bead... was clearly the glazed bead bestowed by the Celestial Dao, long since his treasure material for invoking Divine Techniques.

But why was he planting the bead?

Wangshu felt she might still be a bit dazed from just waking up, so she gave an inquisitive look to Spring Sun Taoist.

As a result, the expression on Spring Sun Taoist's face was even more complex.

She had an ominous premonition.

What on earth was Li Ye planning to do in the Underworld this time?
