In the blink of an eye, it had been three days since Li Boyang returned to Feilai Peak.
During these three days, the Hundred Lands Gods and the mountain people spirit monsters attacked and seized territory, gradually reclaiming the lands swallowed by the sea tides.
Especially along the direction where the roots of the Immortal Spring God extended.
Paths through the mountains and reservoirs and canals were built, guiding the mountains and water veins of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range to regain dominance.
During this process, even though so South Sea gods and sea demon water monsters took the opportunity to cause trouble, they were no longer a major threat.
Thanks to this, even without Li Boyang returning to Li Family Village to command for these three days, the overall situation still progressed in an orderly manner.
It wasn’t just about reclaiming the land swallowed by the sea water.
According to Li Boyang’s prior expectations, he intended to clear the entire line of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, connecting the region in a truly unified way.
But before that, Li Boyang had to first find a way to solve the problem of the South Sea Sea Eye.
"You’ve been staring at the Prison Soul Tripod for three days already, haven’t you figured it out yet?"
Gently swaying her tail, Xiluo yawned as she weakly asked.
Not far from the courtyard, Li Boyang was controlling the Prison Soul Tripod to forge a jade statue.
This jade statue was one of the fifteen night wanderer gods turned completely to jade by the Jadeification Insomnia Curse.
From the shattered jade stones surrounding the Prison Soul Tripod, it wasn’t hard to tell that Li Boyang hadn’t been idle for these three days.
Of the original fifteen night wanderer gods, only the one inside the Prison Soul Tripod remained.
The remaining fourteen had either lted or shattered, becoming the sacrifices for a series of previous forging experints.
Fortunately, Li Boyang didn’t waste those broken fragnts.
He specifically collected them, planning to forge a new magical treasure from them—a surprise for Xiluo.
After all, no matter how chaotic, bad-tempered, and unambitious Xiluo was.
She was still a bona fide goddess.
She helped him so much, Li Boyang felt that crafting a magical treasure for her that matched her identity and image was simply the right thing to do.
But before that, Li Boyang’s imdiate priority remained the South Sea Sea Eye.
"Do you think it’s that simple?"
"I’m re-forging a complete god this ti, and also one that’s been cursed by the Witch King..."
Slightly weary, Li Boyang rolled his eyes and was about to say more, when a pill was accurately popped into his mouth.
"As you like to say, ’haste makes waste...’"
"You should focus more on your own health right now!"
Ignoring Li Boyang’s shocked expression, the instigator Xiluo lazily stood up, transforming directly into her half-human, half-beast evil god form.
"I’ve watched you for a few days now, and I roughly know how to control the heat."
"So leave the painstaking work to !"
She pushed Li Boyang away from the front of the Prison Soul Tripod and sat down herself.
"Gulp..."
Only then did Li Boyang swallow the pill, blinking his eyes.
"Do I look that bad right now?"
Turning to glance at Li Jingshu, who was equally worried behind him, she nodded like a pecking chick.
Before Li Boyang could react, Li Jingshu grabbed the Bronze Treasure Book floating in the air and handed it to him.
At that mont, the cover of the Bronze Treasure Book had turned into a smooth bronze mirror, reflecting Li Boyang’s current appearance clearly.
A head of disheveled red hair...
Dark circles under his eyes...
And a red skin fur robe slung askew over his shoulders...
Li Boyang’s current look couldn’t be more disheveled, akin to a beggar.
And this was after he swallowed the pill, which restored so of his complexion.
"You haven’t slept for three days straight, and you continuously drained your primordial Qi to power the Prison Soul Tripod..."
"If it weren’t for Xiluo stopping from disturbing you, I’d have woken you up long ago."
With a resigned smile, Li Boyang realized the pressure and worry his three days of seclusion had caused those around him.
"It’s okay, I was indeed too impatient."
Quietly channeling the small amount of Profound Yellow Qi within him, Li Boyang smiled reassuringly.
The next second, his entire head of red hair returned to its original smoothness, and even the dark circles under his eyes disappeared.
"The ’Jadeification Insomnia Curse’ is a bit more troubleso than I imagined."
"Even though it turned the bodies of the night wanderer gods into materials akin to heavenly and earthly treasures, its essence is still a curse."
"To turn these night wanderer gods into real magical treasures, I first need to understand the characteristics of this curse..."
By this ti, Li Jingshu was no longer the ignorant Big Girl she once was.
She understood what Li Boyang was saying and knew the difficulty of this matter.
But precisely because of this, Li Jingshu was very worried about Li Boyang’s current physical state.
"Why do we need to forge these night wanderer gods into magical treasures?"
"We already have enough magical treasures in hand, isn’t it unnecessary to forge these night wanderer gods?"
"And in such a hurry..."
Li Jingshu never cared about magical treasures; she knew Li Boyang wasn’t the type who paid attention to such external things.
Even out of his own curiosity and desire for knowledge.
Li Boyang preferred to explore the answers little by little, rather than exhausting himself like he had these past few days.
"To resolve the South Sea issue, these night wanderer gods are a perfect opportunity."
As he said this, Li Boyang recalled the image of the thousand-foot jade statue at the South Sea Sea Eye.
Before returning to Feilai Peak, he already had a concrete solution.
But out of his cautious habit, Li Boyang wanted to go further, to control all the variables in his own hands.
"Little Brother, are you hungry now?"
"Just tell what you want to eat, and I’ll make it right away."
Realizing she couldn’t persuade Li Boyang, Li Jingshu could only change the topic this way.
Though she never said it, Li Jingshu knew exactly how heavy the burden on Li Boyang’s shoulders was.
For this reason, besides resenting her own lack of ability, Li Jingshu could only express her silent support in this way.
"Hmm, I’m indeed a bit low on primordial Qi right now..."
"Just make so roast at. After all, I still prefer eating at!"
"Pills are okay for ergencies, but I don’t like treating them as als."
Watching Li Jingshu’s swift departing silhouette.
Li Boyang blinked again, the smile on his face growing brighter.
"That’s why... this is why I’m willing to work so hard..."
"Even if it’s just for you all, I have to quickly resolve this South Sea crisis."
Seemingly hearing Li Boyang’s murmur, Xiluo, who was replacing him in controlling the Prison Soul Tripod, glanced back at him.
"Rember to save a portion of the roast at."
"Big Girl’s culinary skills have improved significantly recently, though she’s gotten a bit lazy."
"Of course, I’d not mind if you wanted to cook personally, as long as you don’t co up with any more weird innovations."
Glancing back at Xiluo, Li Boyang replied in mock exasperation.
"Your taste has beco more and more picky. You weren’t so fussy before!"
