Chapter 321: Leaving a Name in Celestial Years, the Divine Technique [Wangshu] (Part 2)
At this moment, Li Ye timidly spoke up, "How about letting me leave a mark as well, Master?"
"Heh." Taoist Dongcang showed a hint of a smile and waved his hand, sending the ginkgo leaf to Li Ye's front.
Under the gratified gaze of the Sect Leader and Spring Sun Taoist, Li Ye also left his mark. Now, there were two marks as blazing as the sun and one relatively weak but endlessly enduring mark.
Then.
The Sect Leader was quite troubled, looking at the jade scroll, pondering what kind of reward would be fitting for Li Ye.
However, Li Ye looked at the jade scrolls and suddenly spoke:
"I want to learn the remaining chapters of the Nine Songs."
The Celestial Spirit's Thirty-Six Techniques were indeed great, but the problem was that he felt his vitality was not enough to support learning so many Dharma methods. Even just one technique of resurrecting the dead left his divine soul somewhat weary.
Not to mention, there was also the "Blooming in an Instant" promised by Taoist Dongcang.
As for the Nine Songs, it hadn't progressed for quite some time now.
But when he mentioned this, the Sect Leader shook his head and said, "I can promise you to study them, but which specific chapter or chapters you learn will depend on your master."
He was only responsible for "authorization" and "permission."
As for how to learn that would be a matter for Su Xing to handle.
But what Li Ye needed was exactly this permission.
He grinned and saluted the Sect Leader, "Thank you, Uncle Master!"
The Sect Leader seldom saw Li Ye in such good spirits and asked casually, "I'm curious, if you could choose, which chapter of the Nine Songs would you like to learn?"
"Naturally, Donghuang Taiyi." Li Ye replied without hesitation.
"..."
"What if you had to choose another?"
The Sect Leader rubbed his brow and earnestly said, "You need to learn at least nine chapters of the Nine Songs to study Donghuang Taiyi.
Forcefully studying it would surely lead to uncontrollable issues, and by then, you'd surely not be wanting to shout for your Uncle Master to save you, would you?"
Li Ye: "..."
He felt a bit of the Sect Leader's mature and steady image shattering.
But if Donghuang Taiyi was off the table.
He thought seriously for a moment and answered, "Grand Master of Fate or Xiangjun then."
Spring Sun Taoist chimed in, "The Grand Master of Fate is indeed fitting, suitable for you to continue to delve deep into the resurrection arts, but as for Xiangjun…"
Her expression turned a bit odd.
She truly didn't know how to describe it for a moment.
However, Taoist Dongcang spoke with interest, "There is actually some connection between Xiangjun and Lady Xiang's chapters, involving a rare Taoist technique of time and space.
Moreover, it can summon spirits to dance with you.
It's a rather interesting divine technique."
Li Ye keenly sensed that Spring Sun Taoist's peculiar expression was due to this "Summoning Spirit," but the elder duo seemed to be holding their cards to their chest, and he couldn't press it.
But indeed, he was curious about what kind of Dharma method it was.
Taoist Dongcang waved her hand.
First, she gave Li Ye the promised rewards.
A total of six spirit patterns, a spirit plant, and a divine technique.
Li Ye briefly glanced at them; they all involved "Winter" spirit patterns, and the spirit plant was a Nascent Soul level "Cloud Screen Heavenly Green Pine."
All were really impressive.
More importantly, they were something Li Ye could currently use, clearly thoughtful gifts.
Then she instructed, "If there's anything you don't understand, seek out my disciple. I'm about to leave the Eastern Domain to find Senior Sister Miao Du."
After saying this, she left decisively.
Like winter snow melting under sunlight, without a trace.
"Then, I shall take my leave as well."
Spring Sun Taoist patted Li Ye on the head, "All the authority to mobilize the Hungry Bone, I shall transfer to you. Pay more attention to the activities on the Hell Path here.
Maybe you'll gain quite a bit by chatting with the old monk there.
As Taoist Dongcang said, you are not an ordinary Golden Core now; you will have to expend much effort in many matters, which will help your future.
Remember, no matter the issue, you can seek your master, mistress, or Sect Leader Uncle. Especially your Sect Leader Uncle; it is his duty."
Spring Sun Taoist too left.
Being in Divinity Transformation, she was indeed very busy; currently, she was the only one in that stage in the Eastern Domain, heavy responsibilities lay on her shoulders.
Staying here for years was mainly because Li Ye was crucial, hence being here in protection.
After she left, the Sect Leader looked at Li Ye, "Many will come to meet you next; I give you maximum authority, you can agree to any matter, but no matter good or bad, they are your accomplishments or missteps.
Remember, plan carefully before you act.
There are plenty of treasures in this world, and more so in our Four Seasons Sect, do not be blinded by worldly objects."
He said this.
Then patted Li Ye on the shoulder.
And took his leave.
Li Ye stood under the Ruo Wood, feeling a moment of silence.
Until an elegant figure gracefully approached.
Moonlight gathered around her, forming fine gauze and a velvet carpet, and distant structures like pavilions built of glassy jade stood all around, ethereal and sacred, magnificent, as if her arrival had brought the scene of another world.
"Wangshu… elder sister."
Li Ye was about to address Wangshu as a deity but quickly changed his tone under her playful gaze.
"Yes." Wangshu gestured for Li Ye to follow her, walking leisurely ahead.
With her steps, the skirt dragging on the ground like a stream behind her emanated countless soft moonlights, seeping into the earth.
—This was the Moon God's blessing, something akin to a perpetual "Moon Bath Technique."
With such divine techniques present, the power of the Great Yin would never be exhausted since it directly drew spiritual power from the moonlight; unless the moon completely lost its Great Yin power, it wouldn't wither.
"This land is very good."
"I can feel the tranquil heart power here."
"So, I want to find a place for the Wangshu Jade Rabbit clan to reside; they have learned quite a bit of pill-forging and alchemy arts from me, and they might even offer you tributes, what do you think?"
Tributes?
Li Ye quickly waved his hand, "Having the venerable clan of my elder sister come here to assist me is an honor beyond measure, how could I use the word tribute? Rest assured, I'll surely build them a perfect dwelling."
But Wangshu shook her head, "They have served me for long, and in terms of worldly matters, they are not even as clever as children, so you need not worry, they are Spirit Race after all; a little exertion won't kill them."
Hmm?
Suddenly intending for her vassaled tribe to adapt to worldly affairs?
"Have you grown weary of peace and seek to enter the mortal realm?" Li Ye straightforwardly asked without overthinking.
"Indeed." Wangshu directly responded, "Seeing your senior brother's endeavors, I too wish to split my divine soul, and now I am blessing this land to take root."
"..."
Li Ye felt a bit dizzy.
The Wangshu Moon God planned to take root here.
Does the Sect Leader know about this?
What will happen when you fully emerge, as Wangshu's status is particularly unique and held in high regard throughout the Tao Furnace Realm?
Unexpectedly, Wangshu halted her steps.
Turning back to smile at him, she said, "You will not tell the Sect Leader, and he will not know. This is a secret between us two, bonded by eternal moonlight.
I know you have created a body for a departed soul, and I want such a body as well, crafted in my likeness.
As for the reward…"
She slowly approached Li Ye.
Actually, Wangshu was quite tall; only when she was close did he realize she was about a head taller than him, and she gently left a kiss on his forehead.
There was no romance; it was purely the blessing bestowed by a deity.
In ancient times, deities bestowed their omnipotent divine power upon the human race through such contact.
A luminous crescent moon-shaped pattern suddenly shone brightly.
"The Nine Songs do not contain a chapter about the Moon God, but the ancestors of Four Seasons Sect did not forget to gift me this, and now, I pass on Wangshu's chapter to you."
Hearing this, Li Ye grew silent.
Was she listening all along to his conversation with the three elders?
The "Wangshu".
Is there truly such a chapter?
He suddenly felt rather touched.
Thus, he sincerely smiled obediently, "Thank you, elder sister."
Wangshu was slightly taken aback.
Then she smiled, "Yes."
