Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel

There were not even any side effects.

Li Ye's helpless voice followed:

"It's fine."

"After my Divine Soul collapsed, it merged into the earth and was captured by the light of the Treasure Lotus Lamp. It is now cultivating its Tongbao Technique."

"Give me a moment, I'll be restored soon."

His voice sounded as if nothing was amiss, temporarily putting the two at ease.

However, Wei Qingye still had doubts:

"Then why did the Sword Heart Spiritual Jade shatter? I can still feel it in a state of disintegration."

Li Ye was silent for a moment before replying, "It did affect my body a bit, but only a little. When I come out, I will show you why."

After speaking,

his voice faded away.

Wei Qingye and Chen Mo exchanged glances, feeling that things weren't that simple.

...

Indeed, it wasn't that simple.

That terrifying arrow was likely quenched with the Golden Crow's blood, possibly even a magical artifact cultivated from the myth of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun."

Once hit, it wasn't just a matter of destroying this incarnation; it even affected his main body, destabilizing Ruo Wood.

The second sun, about to be born, was influenced by this deathly aura of the Golden Crow… unexpectedly it was born prematurely.

But the problem was that its power also turned demonic.

——A gray-blue sun swayed among the branches of Ruo Wood. The light it emitted wasn't the bright and dazzling daylight but a deep, abyss-drawing glow.

Because of its sudden birth, it absorbed too much power, causing turmoil, and led to Li Ye suffering significant injuries, and the Sword Heart Spiritual Jade was naturally also affected.

Li Ye was truly troubled.

"Alas."

"At least you're born."

He retracted his Divine Sense.

Looking at the treasure lotus lamp, which had silently risen not far away.

It was layered with jade-like pink lotus petals, with a lotus pod-like green-golden base, and a lotus seed serving as the wick at its center.

Overall, it wasn't very ornate.

Nor was it emitting any earth-shattering spiritual light; it simply floated there, quietly emanating rings of firelight.

[Name]: Treasure Lotus Lamp·Imitation

[Mood]: None

[Status]: An imitation of the legendary Treasure Lotus Lamp, built from endless myths, with a compassionate power that disregards the differences between Dao and Demon, focusing only on the user's true heart.

But it is not complete; its wick needs to be filled with special treasures or have another wick nurtured by mythology.

Current filler: Earth Wishing Spirit Jade.

Current usable time: three hundred twenty-one years.

Li Ye blinked.

The imitation of the Treasure Lotus Lamp, even incomplete, could possess such terrifying power?

He could vaguely feel that the power of this Treasure Lotus Lamp reached at least the level of Divinity Transformation, or even higher… Of course, it should be very difficult for him to wield it to its full potential at that level.

While he was pondering, the Treasure Lotus Lamp had already drifted in front of him, its light flickering as if urging him to hurry and grasp it.

Seeing this, Li Ye did not hesitate.

He reached out and grasped the Treasure Lotus Lamp directly.

The lingering bit of Divine Sense was instantly enveloped by a vast power, and a body composed of lotus flowers was swiftly formed in reality.

And even… with a skirt that resembled lotus petals.

His sudden appearance left Wei Qingye and the Third Senior Brother stunned, then they looked at Li Ye's current attire… the pink-golden petal clothing and skirt, and their expressions became quite delicate.

In truth, it was beautiful.

The "aesthetic judgment" of the Treasure Lotus Lamp was quite good; the pink-golden attire didn't seem overly flashy, and instead, it looked particularly heroic on Li Ye, exuding a kind of youthful vigor.

As if he had suddenly become a few years younger.

Or rather, as long as one looked good, with a decent bearing, such attire could never look bad.

Just that the color was truly too vibrant and delicate, too different from the plain Taoist robes Li Ye usually favored, leaving them both somewhat unaccustomed.

"Have you recovered?" Chen Mo circled around Li Ye, surprised: "Lotus incarnation… just how many myths does this Treasure Lotus Lamp incorporate, and is there a connection to the Three Altars Ocean-Conferencing Great God?"

"After all, in myths, the Treasure Lotus Lamp was born from Taiyi True Man's cave mansion."

"Senior Brother really went all out this time; I'll think of a way to make it up to you."

After saying this, Li Ye looked at Wei Qingye.

With a slight smile, he said, "The same goes for Brother Wei. I remember the best way to practice the Heaven-Inclining Sword is with the Jianmu. When the time comes, I'll accompany your pursuits with my life."

As for other compensations, there's no need to elaborate; he would definitely provide them.

Both of them waved their hands indifferently.

"Trump cards are meant to be used, and spending them means you can replenish."

"This experience of wielding Demonic Qi was extremely rare for me, and I should be able to break through the late-stage Golden Core after a closed cultivation session."

Now they had a rough understanding of the Treasure Lotus Lamp's power.

How should I put it?

This thing was like an all-purpose spiritual power booster, capable of unleashing all Divine Techniques and even amplifying these abilities.

But its greatest power indeed lay in purification, healing, and defense.

To take purification as an example.

Its purification power could cleanse anything Li Ye deemed "filthy," regardless of its Daoist or demonic nature, no matter how holy it appeared to others; if Li Ye considered it impure, it could be purified.

And the healing power could heal almost any injury, and with enough power, it could even revive the dead—especially when combined with the resurrection Divine Technique, the effect was remarkable.

Moreover, the defensive ability was impenetrable by any means.

As long as its light existed, even cataclysmic destruction could not harm Li Ye in the slightest.

——Incidentally, its ability to create this lotus incarnation for Li Ye earlier was a manifestation of its healing power.

For Li Ye, this Treasure Lotus Lamp is just the perfect magical treasure.

No need to worry about distinguishing Spiritual Qi from Demonic Qi, or about wielding it with the risk of self-harm. He himself knows many Divine Techniques, and with the Treasure Lotus Lamp's support, he can achieve even more…

But there was still one last problem.

Which was,

The birth of the Treasure Lotus Lamp had almost drained the Spiritual Qi accumulated over millennia in the Earth Desire Cave Heaven, leaving it nearly barren now, if not entirely.

The approaching Nascent Souls and Golden Cores were thoroughly crushed by the trump cards of Wei Qingye and Chen Mo, and the blood still flowed.

Other Fox Race members with slightly lower cultivation were trembling in their respective abodes.

The precious Spirit Plants transplanted by the Earth Wishing Spirit Foxes were on the verge of death, and many of the more delicate ones had already died in front of Li Ye and the others.

"This is simple."

The Xuan Flower Mountain Opening Axe suddenly spoke: "As long as you use me to cleave open the barrier of Earth Desire Cave Heaven, connecting it with the Tao Furnace Realm, it will naturally heal all the Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts here.

But if you do this, the treasures here will likely scatter, redistributed by the Power of Heavenly Dao across the Tao Furnace Realm.

After all, the treasures here were kept by…"

Li Ye did not hesitate.

He never intended to monopolize so many treasures here but needed to discuss it with Wei Qingye and the Third Senior Brother.

He looked at the two of them.

They waved their hands and said, "You decide. The Spirit Plants here… are not easy to take."

The Celestial Dao likely bore a grudge against the Earth Desire Fox Race. If they took so many treasures from here, any attempt to refine pills or magical artifacts might lead to an explosion in the furnace.

Anyway, they have already left plenty of Mana imprints. At worst, they could come back and find them later, after the Celestial Dao had cleansed the ominous aura, treating it as a treasure hunt.

"Alright."

With this, Li Ye felt at ease.

He grasped the Xuan Flower Mountain Opening Axe flying toward him.

Then, wielding it fiercely toward the Heavenly Dome—

"Crack!"

The Heavenly Dome, which the Earth Desire Fox Race had been strengthening for countless years at the cost of many treasures, was split open just like that.

However, what rushed in first was not the Power of Heavenly Dao from the Tao Furnace Realm, but…

The waters of Weichuan.
