Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel-Chapter 678 - 381: Nascent Soul (2)
Unexpectedly, it was directly blown to the depths of a world beyond sight, unable to reveal itself for the moment.
Seeing this, Li Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This was a secret technique of attack from the Four Seasons Sect.
It was as renowned as the "Great Funeral of the Four Seasons" at the Four Seasons Scenic Spot.
It represented the enigmatic chaos following the end of the four seasons, considered the pinnacle of space in a sense.
Li Ye knew very well that he couldn’t defeat this deity.
It’s just that he had caused too many disturbances, the deity couldn’t fully focus on him; if it regained its strength, it would definitely strike like a torrent.
He had done everything he could.
There was only one problem he couldn’t solve.
Where exactly were Taoist Dongcang and Ancestor Miaodu?
He was very puzzled, but he still took the opportunity to quickly merge into the brilliance after the thunder tribulation.
Only by fully accepting this brilliance could his Nascent Soul’s status stabilize.
After he entered the brilliance,
the Nascent Soul sat down directly,
naturally sitting cross-legged in the radiance.
It was about three inches tall,
crystal clear like glass, with brilliance flowing from inside out, countless Spiritual Qi attracted by it, surrounding and emitting a star sea-like light.
A pure smile on its face, eyes curiously observing the world, and cheerful laughter emanated from the Nascent Soul.
Everything in the world seemed so unfamiliar and interesting to it.
Li Ye at this moment felt his consciousness within the Nascent Soul, a strange and subtle feeling, unable to control his body, yet with an indescribable sense of leisure.
It seemed as if he had really become a carefree and innocent infant.
But he could feel the terrifying power contained within this Nascent Soul, the Tao Fruit, all sacrifices beginning to restore as the Nascent Soul took form.
His own "Jade Light" was the perfect remedy for repairing all.
As long as the Nascent Soul was intact, he would be eternal.
"..."
"I always feel like something is missing."
Li Ye, unable to control the Nascent Soul, mind was blank, but when his Divine Sense scanned down to Wei Qingye, his heart skipped a beat.
Wait.
Bro, where’s your Nascent Soul?
Only then did he realize that if Wei Qingye had survived the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation, heavenly brilliance should have come to repair his body.
"... It’s fine."
Wei Qingye seemed to notice the gaze of the Nascent Soul,
grinning: "Ah, I was still a bit short, couldn’t overcome the tribulation, but it’s okay, I’ll try again after resting for a few days."
Saying so, he spit blood.
Even though Li Ye was slow, he had to notice the abnormal situation.
He was just about to grit his teeth and forcibly control the Nascent Soul when a voice rang in his ear:
"Li Ye."
No need to turn around.
He knew it was the voice of Ancestor Miaodu.
At this moment, Ancestor Miaodu’s body was covered in golden blood, and following her, Taoist Dongcang also appeared deflated, both panting as they arrived at the Heavenly Hua Pillar beside Li Ye.
"Alas."
"Those few old guys really are difficult to deal with."
"If not for Senior Sister having the Earth Book, we might not have been able to stop them."
Taoist Dongcang landed beside Wei Qingye, grabbed a handful of pills, and buried him with wind and snow.
Then he returned to Li Ye’s side.
Sitting down heavily, he said to Li Ye: "We’ve been stopping the deities of other worlds with... someone just now."
"Sorry, but it has caused you such trouble."
Upon hearing this, Li Ye suddenly understood why, despite causing such a storm, the other deities hadn’t come—it was because Taoist Dongcang and Ancestor Miaodu were blocking them.
If it weren’t for them, he’d have faced not only the deity of Qingguang but also its "brothers and sisters" born with it.
Yet he couldn’t speak.
At this moment, the Nascent Soul was completely free and uncontrolled, incredibly hard to rein in.
This state of "unrestrained" was actually therapeutic.
If the Nascent Soul’s "Jade Light" could repair the physical and Tao injuries, then "unrestrained" would mend the wounds of the self.
No one loves you more than yourself; at this moment, the Nascent Soul was compensating for the treatments it might not have received since its creation, acting freely and without restrictions.
Once the Tao Fruit of the Nascent Soul was formed, the Tao Heart would have no more cracks. Even a cultivator of the Demon Path would have an extremely solid Tao Heart—such is the magic of the Nascent Soul.
From the inside out, achieving perfection.
So, in a sense, forcibly interrupting this process might truly harm the Nascent Soul, resulting in what could be described as "unhappy childhood," leading to unforeseeable tragic consequences.
Fortunately, they appeared.
If not, Li Ye would have forced an interruption to first stabilize Wei Qingye’s injuries.
The atmosphere finally seemed a bit calm.
And it was at this time.
A ripple suddenly boiled up like boiling water within the Chaotic Outer Domain, and a giant tree unceremoniously plunged straight into the Qingguang Realm.
The instant it descended,
the Celestial Dao of the Tao Furnace Realm followed, beginning to invade this place, treating its Celestial Dao as a delicacy to munch on.
Following that,
a female cultivator wearing an Eight Trigrams Taoist Robe appeared, tossing the Eight Trigrams diagram into the sky, and it rushed in all directions, immediately solidifying the causality and space of this place.
"Oh~"
The female cultivator noticed this place and waved at Dongcang:
"Here I am!"
Fine, you’re here, but why are you waving?
Dongcang wore a sour face, but still introduced her to Li Ye, "This is Ancestor Yunqing of Qiongguan Mountain.
She’s also a Divinity Transformation cultivator.
Also, she’s the guardian of the current generation’s Ten Directions Radiant Array.
The divine technique she just used is the Eight Trigrams Heaven Locking Technique—from this moment on, Qingguang Realm won’t experience any variables."
Before Dongcang finished speaking,
two rays of escape light quickly shot out from the Jianmu.
One headed towards Wei Qingye, from a group of sword cultivators with sword boxes on their backs, the other surged towards Li Ye, comprised of his senior apprentice brothers... and master and mistress.
Seeing them arriving, Li Ye wanted to greet them,
and perhaps boast a bit about what he had done—though it was a painful ordeal, not too hard.
However, he forgot he was still an infant.
The adorable Nascent Soul went "babbling."
Leaving his senior apprentice brothers, master, and mistress slightly confused.
Then they couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
"You child, always bringing some amusement."
The mistress looked at Li Ye tenderly and then slapped the master on the back hard: "Why are you still dawdling?
Your disciple was bullied!
Move now! Otherwise, I’ll take your disciple for a hundred-year tour in the Chaotic Outer Domain!"
The master, teeth gritted in pain, hurriedly said: "Alright, alright!"
Saying this,
he unfolded his palm.
Floating silently in his solid palm was an orange-red orb, seemingly emitting endless light, waves of brilliance oscillating, and just by appearing, its terrifying spiritual power instantly shattered the surrounding ground and mountains.
If not for Jianmu’s suppression here, the space would likely have utterly collapsed once again.
Su Xing said calmly:
"The world has cooled; it’s time for its destruction."
"Luckily, your Ancestor Jianmu has locked down all innocent mortals."
"Let’s wipe out the rest with karma."
With that said,
he flipped his palm.
That orange-red orb plummeted straight down.
The firelight instantly swept across the entire world—this was different from Li Ye’s tribulation fire, it burned everything to ashes.
As far as the eye could see,
only boiling, surging firelight remained.
And in the flames struggling to escape, yet already anchored, was the deity of Qingguang.
Under Jianmu’s protection, Li Ye and others felt only warmth like sunlight, watching the burning and destruction of the world.
Only the Celestial Dao of the Tao Furnace Realm—if it had a face, it’d surely be bewildered.
As it was absorbing the Celestial Dao here—
how did it... all burn away?
