Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel-Chapter 262 - 178: Celestial Dao Divine Technique, Seed of the Small Thousand World
First, he cast his gaze towards the crowd of Spirit Pets summoned by the Eight Trigrams Celestial Plate.
The first to arrive was the particularly bold Beaver, which dashed over, wobbling its chubby belly, leaped up, and landed right in Li Ye’s arms.
Clearly, it knew it could be slightly indulgent, and its charmingly adorable manner captivated both female and male cultivators, lighting up their eyes.
They contemplated whether they could buy a few Spirit Pets from the Four Seasons Sect to raise at home.
However, its antics evidently sparked anger within the Spirit Beast group, but they could do nothing since this fellow was indeed one of the Spirit Beasts that had been with Li Ye since the beginning.
In the Cave Mansion, it held a status akin to that of an elder brother and was usually quite generous, so they could only look at Li Ye pitifully, as if overshadowed by a cloud.
This astonished the cultivators even more, for they knew these beasts were typically efficient in handling matters, almost aloof.
Sometimes, when trying to communicate with them, they would barely respond, so how did they turn into doting little dolls around Li Ye?
To be honest, the contrast made the cultivators’ lips curl into smiles, and even evoked some envy.
Especially the female cultivator from the Demon Path, whose face, like a mask, revealed unabashed envy.
"You all..."
Li Ye was truly amused by these creatures; indeed, as the Spirit Beasts’ cultivation grew, their intellect matured as well, only exposing such a demeanor before him.
He didn’t mind; rather, he felt comforted. At the very least, with him, he hoped these little ones could be completely relaxed and comfortable.
But to soothe his Spirit Pets before so many cultivators, even though these cultivators had just assisted him through tribulation, it was a bit embarrassing even for Li Ye.
So, with a wave of his hand, he gathered all the Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts into the Jianmu world, including the Beaver.
Then, he turned nonchalantly, a spring breeze-like smile on his face, and cupped his hands toward the cultivators not far away:
"Thank you all for helping me through the tribulation."
"Should you need assistance in the future, don’t hesitate to seek me out. I will surely do my utmost."
As soon as he finished speaking, these cultivators naturally reciprocated with polite gratitude, faces adorned with mischievous smiles:
"This time, we sure took advantage of our dao friend!"
"With our dao friend’s Thunder Tribulation behind him, I’m sure his future cultivation journey will be smooth sailing."
"Should our dao friend need punches in the future, we would surely not shy away!"
That’s how relationships are forged.
Li Ye naturally nodded with a smile, his gaze lingering on the female cultivator from the Demon Path for a moment, seriously nodding again.
There’s no real boundary between the Righteous and Demon Path; since this dao friend helped him, he would regard her as a friend.
"Everyone..."
Just as he was about to invite them to gather, Wei Qingye interjected, "Our Sword Mountain elders have already prepared a banquet.
Why don’t you follow me and enjoy some relaxation and entertainment?"
With those words, he winked at Li Ye.
It seemed like he was deliberately sending these people away.
Li Ye wasn’t foolish; he had gifted Ring Heaven Domain a great present, so Sword Mountain would surely express their gratitude, likely bestowing him some benefits.
Thus, he simply followed up, "Yes, yes, please head to Sword Mountain for the banquet first, and I shall join you shortly."
The disciples of Celestial Vein Sword Mountain who had been waiting promptly opened the space portal, leading the way.
"Alright, then, we’ll head there first."
"Come to think of it, we haven’t tasted Sword Mountain’s delicacies yet."
"Hope they won’t serve us swords!"
Soon, the cultivators left amidst laughter and chatter.
Only Li Ye and Wei Qingye remained standing in the fragrant fields.
About three breaths later.
A girl carrying a Sword Box silently appeared before them, her appearance notably valiant; calling her a girl, she resembled more an outgoing general about to set off.
Just by standing there, Li Ye felt immense pressure.
Not a Nascent Soul!
A Nascent Soul couldn’t possibly exert such pressure on him.
"Brother Li, this is the Sword Elder from our sect." Wei Qingye approached casually without much reverence, leaning in to speak into his ear.
Seemingly more of a boast than awe.
The girl, or rather, the Divinity Transformation Elder glanced at Wei Qingye; she saw that celestial elements, once loathed by the Celestial Dao, were fading from his body.
Even the disdain erased by reincarnation was dissipating after helping Li Ye, a scene that even left her a bit envious.
She spoke, "Wei Qingye, you may step back first."
"Huh?" Wei Qingye glanced at the Divinity Transformation Elder with confusion but obediently left.
Once he departed, the Divinity Transformation Elder approached Li Ye.
"Call me Senior Yao."
"I’ve actually come to thank you for resolving a major problem for our Celestial Vein Sword Mountain."
"The relationship between our two sects dates back to the founders, so in the future, feel at home at Sword Mountain, and whatever secret techniques you wish to learn, be my guest."
"Besides, I have a treasure to offer you."
She extended her hand with a gentle wave.
A wooden box descended before Li Ye.
"Inside is a Grotto Heaven seed, preserved by the founders of our two sects when defining the Celestial Dao."
"It holds a unique divine technique of ours; if you can master it, it will be an opportunity."
"If you’re interested in swordsmanship later, I’ll have my disciple teach you; I’ll handle things with your Supreme Elder."
