The seed in the Dantian seemed to agree with him, lightly pulsating, spreading a trace of joy from his heart.
——Indeed, I need comfort myself.
Though strange, it indeed was just so.
Perhaps deep down, he truly held a fondness for basking in sunlight, just like now, lying on the recliner, savoring the early summer sunshine.
"That’s quite true as well."
"Isn’t cultivation all about seeking ease and freedom."
"Certainly should satisfy oneself."
He gently tapped with his fingertip, combining the Spiritual Power from the Jianmu with the Xiguang Bell.
The white bell floated in the Heavenly Dome, continuously absorbing Sunlight Spiritual Power and emitting bright ripples.
All the Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts in the courtyard could sense the subtle emotional changes within the bell’s sound.
Originally just soothing for the sake of soothing, now it truly carried Li Ye’s pleasure of enjoying the sunshine within it.
"My own magic should naturally have my own thoughts."
Li Ye nodded in satisfaction, then took out the Moonlight Spiritual Gold given to him by the Flint Fire Crystal Insect which he kept close to him.
"Begin, with this power, I can forge my own Magical Artifact."
Injecting spiritual power, the five sprouts rolled in his palm, gradually starting to melt.
Sunlight shone on the silvery metal, slowly adding a touch of golden brilliance, the aura within, initially somewhat cool, also warming up.
He had previously decided to forge these Spiritual Gold into his own Lifebound Magical Artifact, which would transform into his Lifebound Magical Treasure after I survived the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation in the future.
Previously at Qi Refining, it was somewhat challenging to refine.
But now it’s different.
Utilizing the unique Artifact Refining method of the Four Seasons Sect given to him by Su Ya before leaving, and combined with his current control over spiritual power, it’s enough to melt and fuse these sprouts.
Quickly, all five pieces of Moonlight Spiritual Gold melted, under Li Ye’s control, they fused into a bracelet.
The Yin Attribute moonlight and the Yang Attribute Flint Fire power entwined on the bracelet’s surface, forming a strange scene of alternating silver and gold-red.
"My Lifebound Magical Artifact."
"But it still needs a bit of Essence Blood."
He looked at this bracelet and unhesitatingly spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood, which, brimming with vitality, instantly melded into the bracelet, at that moment, Li Ye established a connection with it.
It was a connection of mutual understanding.
"Calling you Vajra Bracelet seems inappropriate, let’s call you Sun and Moon Ring," Li Ye said.
The Sun and Moon Ring gently trembled, spun around swiftly, and proactively slipped onto Li Ye’s wrist, emitting spiritual power fluctuations containing both coolness and warmth.
Li Ye gazed down at this Sun and Moon Ring, suddenly recalling the novels he had read where treasures could be nurtured in the Dantian, but it seems currently he can’t achieve that.
"Wonder if I can do it in the future."
"Only one last step remains."
He took a deep breath. Fresh chapters posted on novelꞁire.net
Fetching from his close position, the brocade pouch from where he had long carried a tael of Qi Fortune Shining Gold, he placed it gently onto the Sun and Moon Ring to begin refining.
Even though the Beavers kept purifying the Hungry Bones, continuously gathering a good amount of Qi Fortune Shining Gold.
But this one tael had been with him the longest, already thoroughly integrated with his Spiritual Power, naturally making it excellent material, so he rightfully chose it.
After adding this bit of Qi Fortune Shining Gold, a golden boundary appeared between the constantly shifting silver and gold-red colors of the Sun and Moon Ring, changing along with it.
Although Li Ye did not know what exactly changed, he was sure it was a good change, probably to be discovered upon use later on.
The process of refining this Lifebound Magical Artifact went quite smoothly, completed in a short time, all thanks to his daily accumulation.
"Senior Brother Su Ya mentioned that the Lifebound Magical Artifact needs various inscriptions of runes imprinted, all good things are in the Four Seasons Sect, it seems I have to enter the sect to buy them."
He stroked the Sun and Moon Ring on his wrist, closing his eyes to rest, now it was only an embryo and couldn’t be used recklessly.
At the moment, the sunlight was bright and the bell sound mellow.
It truly was the right time for a nap!
In the following days, he stayed at home.
Not because he really wanted to be lazy, but Qingsui Silkworm and Bright Shining Mulberry Tree were at a critical period, requiring him to stay at home to oversee.
The Spiritual Mechanism Vine and Qian Fang were evidently aware of his situation, never rushing him, but each day someone from there would send a disciple with a letter to inform him of the situation.
Basically, handling what needed to be killed or trapped, keeping in mind there were several families aside from the Zhou Family waiting for their turn.
They were unwilling to lag behind, forcibly dispatching some of their astute juniors to replace the Zhou Family and continue clearing the Spirit Land.
The Zhou Family surely disagreed, but the Spiritual Mechanism Vine had to maintain balance—it had already given the Zhou Family enough benefits and face, naturally, it couldn’t solely side with them.
Thus, after the Spiritual Mechanism Vine personally spoke, juniors from the other families were also sent over.
This led to those juniors striving harder than anyone else, the number of injuries soared, and Miner Ghosts were slain left and right, and they even managed to seize three Earth Demon Ginseng.
"But still, it’s nothing compared to Senior Brother’s achievement of single-handedly resisting tens of thousands of Miner Ghosts and even eliminating a Hungry Ghost Evil Bone."
At this point, the disciple delivering the letter took out a brocade box: "Uncle-Master says this is a reward for Senior Brother."
He opened the brocade box, revealing the Earth Demon Ginseng that Li Ye had captured earlier, entwined with sealed rune light threads, in a state of slumber.
