I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 234 - 4: Ghost Gods of Yunmeng Marsh (1/3)

"We'll fly next, remember to hold onto me tightly."

Li Jingshu casually glanced at the orderly and busy Ghost Gods and instructed quietly, as if accustomed to it.

"Mm, alright."

Gone was his previous mischievousness; Lu Huaijin was behaving very obediently now.

After all, Li Jingshu could disregard the imposing presence of these Ghost Gods, but young Lu Huaijin couldn't manage that.

His innate, stronger than average Spiritual Sense informed Lu Huaijin.

Every Ghost God here could easily crush him, much like squashing an ant.

Whoosh!

Guided by a swarm of Sleep Bugs.

Li Jingshu skillfully navigated through the clouds and fog, soon approaching Feilai Peak at the center of Yunmeng Marsh.

Compared to a few years ago, Feilai Peak had changed significantly, void of Ghost God Cliff following its reconstruction.

The cracks in the mountain had been filled with countless plants and vines, with only a faint golden light seeping through.

Those golden lights flickered like living creatures, moving throughout the mountain's interior.

Every spark of gold caused nearby Ghost Gods to retreat with expressions of dismay, save for a few exceptions.

"Has it awakened again?"

Surprised, Li Jingshu looked at the flashing golden lights.

She immediately understood why the Ghost Gods avoided it.

Li Boyang had informed her long ago.

The God-Binding Rope possessed an extraordinary spirituality, not at all inferior to her Bronze Treasure Book.

Moreover, after acquiring the God-Binding Rope, Li Boyang specifically used the Prison Soul Tripod to reforge it.

The ability of the God-Binding Rope to divide and form "collars" that constrain Ghost Gods resulted from Li Boyang's enhancement.

Magical Treasures refined by the Prison Soul Tripod have their spirituality greatly strengthened.

This directly led to the God-Binding Rope becoming less of a treasure.

And more akin to a God existing in "rope" form, wielding the powers of confinement and sealing.

"Yes, it has awakened again."

Unnoticed, Human-faced Spider Xiaogui quietly emerged from the fog.

Habitually landing atop Li Jingshu's head, Xiaogui's face was filled with helplessness.

"And this time, it's throwing a tantrum again, almost causing Mountain God Grandma to lose her temper..."

The God-Binding Rope was a relic left by the Huai River Witch, comparable to Xiluo in terms of seniority.

Its nascent spirituality had a capricious temperament like a child, it would be an understatement to call its behavior unpredictable.

In fact, this was the real reason why the Ghost Gods were wary of it.

"What's the matter this time?"

Having become accustomed to the God-Binding Rope's occasional tantrums.

Li Jingshu was more curious about what it intended to do this time, and why it managed to anger the equally hot-tempered Xiluo.

"Heard it wished to taste food..."

"But lost control for a moment and almost overturned Mountain God Grandma's treasury."

Trying to comprehend the connection between these events, Li Jingshu ultimately gave up. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Whether a rope could taste food, or how Xiluo's treasury was overturned, went beyond Li Jingshu's understanding.

What Li Jingshu knew for sure was to skirt around Xiluo while climbing the mountain—she did not wish to become collateral damage.

"Speaking of which, why did you come so early today?"

"And brought this little girl?"

With two front legs covering its eyes.

Curiously, Xiaogui turned to look at Lu Huaijin, who was being held by Li Jingshu.

Noticing Xiaogui's gaze, Lu Huaijin also responded with a polite smile.

Just like with those Ghost Gods earlier.

Lu Huaijin sensed a powerful aura emanating from this small spider, one she absolutely could not provoke.

Being an Innate Divine, Lu Huaijin's remarkable soul endowed her with heightened Spiritual Sense.

Thus, while other children were still practicing the Breathing Technique, Lu Huaijin had already begun with the Perception Technique.

Until now, Lu Huaijin hadn't officially practiced the Breathing Technique, but her mastery of the Perception Technique was growing.

With both combined, Lu Huaijin could clearly perceive the immense Life Essence Qi within Xiaogui.

Accompanied by a breathing rhythm Lu Huaijin couldn't comprehend.

That vast Life Essence Qi naturally flowed, overflowing to faintly form a Gang Qi around her.

However, Xiaogui's Gang Qi was different from Li Jingshu's Body-Protecting Gang Qi, mixed with a more sophisticated and inscrutable logic.

[She... seems like she's not her complete self right now?]

This thought suddenly flashed in her mind, causing Lu Huaijin's Celestial Eye on her forehead to open instinctively.

And then, Lu Huaijin saw a scene beyond her imagination.

It was a vividly seductive Spider Lady, human above the waist and spider below.

"Little girl, you know it's impolite to stare at others like that, don't you?"

Before Lu Huaijin could continue observing, Li Jingshu blocked her Celestial Eye.

With Li Jingshu's ample Life Essence Qi, Lu Huaijin's Celestial Eye couldn't reveal any more.

Only when Li Jingshu forced her to close her Celestial Eye.

Lu Huaijin hadn't quite recovered from that fleeting glimpse.

"It's okay, she's just a child!"

"Weren't you curious and troublemaking when you were young?"

Xiaogui wasn't at all offended by Lu Huaijin's impudence, more surprised by her talent.

"Indeed, worthy of being an Innate Divine like the Prophet..."

"In front of this eye, it feels as though I have no secrets."

Hearing this, Li Jingshu momentarily didn't know whether to scold Lu Huaijin, or be embarrassed by Xiaogui revealing her past.

"Ahem, her original Celestial Eye didn't have this capability."

"But she has remarkable aptitude in practicing the 'Perception Technique,' and can now achieve stable Meditation and contemplation."

"Although there's still quite a journey ahead before she cultivates her Primordial Spirit..."

"It has greatly stimulated her potential, triggering the first transformation of her Celestial Eye."

Due to Li Boyang's teachings, Li Jingshu's understanding of the Celestial Eye was beyond outsider's imagination.

"I see!"

With a cry of amazement, Xiaogui swiftly flew to the center of Lu Huaijin's palm.

"This should be our first meeting, right?"

"At least for you, this should be your first time seeing me."

"Though I have nothing else to offer, this 'Protective Talisman' can be my gift to you."

Gradually, Xiaogui spun a piece of crystal-clear silk.

And then strung it into a 'Ghost-faced Spider,' placing it in Lu Huaijin's hand.

"With this little trinket, ordinary spiders won't dare approach you easily anymore."

"If you happen to encounter any poison, swallowing it can render you immune for a short time."
