When the Golden Horn returned Bahu to the village, and then ca back to the Mountain God Temple at Feilai Peak.
Li Boyang had already left here and returned to Li Family Village.
"The moon is truly round tonight!"
Sitting near the shrine of Xiluo at the village entrance, Li Boyang gazed at the bright moon in the sky and sighed.
Beside Li Boyang, Li Jingshu was rely looking down at her shadow, occasionally forming a spell with her hands and softly chanting incantations.
In this process, a faint Evil Qi surged from deep underground, rging with Li Jingshu’s shadow.
Thus, a visible distortion appeared on Li Jingshu’s shadow.
Just like Li Boyang’s Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect, the twisted shadows tried to transform from a low-dinsional plane into a high-dinsional entity.
However, Li Jingshu was neither soone inherently favored by the Evil Qi, nor had she suffered the curse of Nai Fu’s Evil Qi.
The bit of Evil Qi she gathered using divine techniques was not enough to support her shadow in manifesting a true Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect.
"The moonlit night environnt might suit the cultivation of the Dharma Aspect, but you can’t force it."
Glancing at Li Jingshu beside him, Li Boyang smiled helplessly.
"Moreover, the path of the Dharma Aspect may not be suitable for you, so why insist on mimicking my path?"
Li Boyang spoke honestly; at first, he carried Evil Qi with his shadow, manifesting a ghostly form purely as a move of desperation.
Now, the specific cultivation system had been established by Li Boyang.
Li Jingshu had many things she could learn; she didn’t necessarily have to study the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect.
"Hmph! Who says it’s not suitable for ?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jingshu imdiately raised her head in defiance.
The next mont, a small shadow rose from her feet.
Though it wasn’t enough to manifest any particularly powerful form, that small shadow was indeed the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect.
Nearly warped and transford, the small shadow eventually turned into a dainty little monster.
"See, didn’t I just manifest a Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect?"
With a re beckon of her finger, the dainty little monster leaped onto her shoulder.
Also composed of shadow and Evil Qi, it was a Dharma Aspect.
This dainty little monster wasn’t humanoid; its whole being resembled a shadow entity capable of transforming at will.
Only when it opened its mouth could one see its ghastly white teeth and crimson tongue.
"You call this a Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect when it can’t even form basic features?"
Reaching out to touch the little monster, Li Boyang jokingly laughed.
As Li Boyang said, forming a mouth and a tongue was already the limit for this shadow entity.
"Next ti, I’ll definitely form eyes, that’s progress."
In front of Li Boyang, Li Jingshu seed to have reverted to her childhood state.
Amidst their banter, there was an undeniable spirit of persistence and unwillingness to yield.
"Tsk tsk, you just love doing things that yield little for much effort."
If you applied this energy to learning Proverbs Talismans, you’d achieve far more success than practicing the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect."
Li Boyang’s statent wasn’t an exaggeration.
Without the innate enhancent from Evil Qi, saying Li Jingshu’s efforts yielded little was generous.
The ceiling of Li Jingshu’s cultivation in the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect was already set; she was never going to reach Li Boyang’s level.
"I’ll learn Proverbs Talismans, but I won’t give up on the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect either."
Imitating Li Boyang, Li Jingshu snapped her fingers with determination.
The next second, that small Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect returned to being a shadow, and then a familiar Butterfly Knife slowly erged from it.
This was the first "Magical Treasure" Li Boyang had specifically crafted for Li Jingshu.
Of course, standing at Li Boyang’s current height,
calling this Butterfly Knife a "Magical Treasure" was really overestimating it.
Aside from a faint spiritual essence, it only had the advantages of durability and sharpness.
"Oh? You actually still have it?"
Li Boyang, a bit surprised, didn’t expect Li Jingshu to still have this knife.
Especially when Li Boyang noticed so Proverbs Talismans discreetly appearing on the handle and blade.
Those Proverbs Talismans gave it an added elent of immortality, in addition to durability and sharpness.
"Isn’t using those precious materials and ’Original Talismans’ on this a bit wasteful?"
In response to Li Boyang’s question, Li Jingshu rely huffed softly.
To Li Jingshu, this was the first magical treasure her little brother had given her, which held far more significance than ordinary value could asure.
In fact, the reason she chose to use those precious materials and inscribe ’Original Talismans’ on this Butterfly Knife was to keep it in its original state forever.
—No need for further enhancents, nor should it decay over ti.
That was Li Jingshu’s thought when she reforged the Butterfly Knife.
"Anyway, just tell whether the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect is useful or not!"
Not giving Li Boyang the chance to examine it further, Li Jingshu once again let the Butterfly Knife sink back into the shadow.
When the shadow returned to beneath Li Jingshu’s feet, everything seed to settle back into tranquility.
"Using the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect as a storage space?"
"Doesn’t your Bronze Treasure Book have the sa function? Why exert extra effort to cultivate a Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect?"
Even now, Li Boyang wished to persuade Li Jingshu to abandon this low-efficiency effort.
Unfortunately, what Li Jingshu cared about was never the functionality of the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect.
Her perseverance in the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect was purely because it was one of the techniques Li Boyang used most frequently.
From initial bewildernt to now mature understanding.
Li Boyang had already unknowingly beco the idol that Li Jingshu pursued.
This pursuit wasn’t about surpassing abilities but resembled idol-like imitation.
—The path my little brother paved, I must walk down, no matter how arduous and difficult the journey ahead may be.
With this belief, Li Jingshu could patiently lay her foundation bit by bit.
Unlike other beings pursuing the path of Celestial and Human, who gradually diverged onto a path vastly different from Li Boyang’s.
When Li Boyang preached in Yunng Marsh, he often said, "The Great Dao has three thousand paths, all can certify the Tao."
But to Li Jingshu, her imitation and pursuit were a path too, weren’t they?
"Uh, if you really want to tread down the path of the Dharma Aspect..."
"I will docunt so insights into cultivation and usage for you to refer to specifically."
Seeing that Li Jingshu hadn’t taken his words to heart, Li Boyang could only sigh in the end.
After all, she was his sister, pampering her was all Li Boyang could do.
"But you must promise in advance, don’t let practicing the Shadow Evil Dharma Aspect delay your personal cultivation."
