'What's wrong with this little junior brother? That Spirit dicine looks perfectly good, so why isn't he taking it?'
Although Yang Ziling had her eyes closed to cultivate, with her level of power, her awareness of her surroundings was naturally quite strong.
The mont Yang Xiao moved, she was alerted.
However, with her level of knowledge, she had no idea what that small, purple blade of grass was.
In fact, even if soone told her it was Divine Communication Grass, she probably still wouldn't know what that was.
After all, this kind of thing was quite rare even back in the Ancient Era.
It could be considered a type of rare Divine dicine.
Never mind that Yang Ziling didn't recognize it; even the most knowledgeable people from the Pure Yang Sword Sect or even dicine King Valley might not have known what it was.
But in the next mont, her jaw dropped in astonishnt.
"It's gone!"
'What's going on?'
Yang Ziling rubbed her eyes.
She looked again, carefully.
It was true. The little purple blade of grass in Yang Xiao's hand had vanished.
And he had lowered his hand.
A hint of relief appeared on his face.
"Success."
Yang Xiao was pleased.
'Given my current Spiritual Power, initially refining the Divine Communication Grass was indeed quite a difficult task.'
But thankfully, he had succeeded.
"How did you do that trick?"
Just then, Yang Ziling ran over.
"A trick?"
Yang Xiao's expression darkened.
'This girl actually spied on while I was taking the Divine Communication Grass.'
But regardless, the Divine Communication Grass was his now. No one could take it away.
Naturally, Yang Xiao was in a good mood.
"Yeah, the trick for making Spirit dicine disappear. Teach , co on."
Yang Ziling had an eager look on her face.
Seeing her like this, Yang Xiao suddenly felt the urge to tease her a bit.
"Alright. Give a stalk of Spirit dicine."
Yang Xiao said with a half-smile.
"Spirit dicine? Can't it be sothing else?"
"Nope. Do you want to learn or not?"
"Learn! Of course I want to learn! It's such a fun trick! Here, for you. This is a Third-Level Spirit dicine that I had a really hard ti getting. Quick, make it disappear!"
Yang Ziling actually took out a stalk of Spirit dicine—and a Third-Level Spirit dicine at that, which was quite valuable to her—and gave it to Yang Xiao to perform his trick.
Yang Xiao was suddenly speechless.
Still, if you're going to put on a show, you have to see it through.
Since he'd started teasing her, he couldn't just give up halfway.
So, taking the Spirit dicine from Yang Ziling's hand, Yang Xiao waved it in front of her eyes and said with a grin, "Watch closely. See? It's gone."
"Huh? You... you actually... wait, that's not right! I saw your Storage Ring flash just now. You just put it away!"
Yang Ziling fud.
'This punk dares to trick !'
"Didn't you ask to make it disappear? This is how I do it."
Yang Xiao, however, wore a completely innocent expression.
"Really? It's that simple? How could I not have thought of that?"
At first, Yang Ziling didn't believe him, but seeing his deadpan expression, she started to be convinced.
In the end, she even slapped herself on the forehead.
'I'm so stupid!'
'How could I not think of sothing so simple?'
Yang Xiao couldn't help but want to laugh.
But he didn't. Instead, he continued, "I have another trick, one that can make Spirit dicine appear out of thin air. Want to learn that one?"
"Tch, do you take for a fool? I already know how to do a trick that simple."
Yang Ziling wore a haughty expression.
She shot Yang Xiao a disdainful look.
But Yang Xiao knew this girl had completely fallen for it.
Sure enough, when he took the Spirit dicine out and returned it to Yang Ziling, she went back to her original spot and began to cultivate again.
This ti, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Power surged even more intensely. Clearly, she was now truly starting to cultivate.
'This silly girl is actually kind of interesting.'
That being said, after getting rid of Yang Ziling, Yang Xiao truly breathed a sigh of relief.
If she had kept pestering him with questions, it would have been really annoying.
If things went sour, they might have even had to resort to fighting.
'My current frail body really can't take that kind of abuse.'
'However, in just a few more days, my Divine Soul should recover, and maybe even achieve a breakthrough.'
Yang Xiao smiled faintly.
Of course, the Divine Communication Grass hadn't vanished into thin air.
Nor had he refined it directly.
Because that thing wasn't sothing that could be fully refined in a short amount of ti.
Of course, this was also because Yang Xiao's current Divine Soul was too weak.
In his first life, or even his second, he could have easily absorbed all of its power.
But now, he couldn't.
Therefore, the Divine Communication Grass had only been initially refined by Yang Xiao and integrated into his sea of consciousness.
Now, whenever he closed his eyes, he could see the small purple grass in his sea of consciousness, constantly nourishing his Divine Soul, which had developed cracks due to the Nine Revolutions Concentration Spirit Technique.
And the Divine Soul is the very source of Spiritual Power.
It's just like the relationship between the physical body and physical strength.
The difference is that the Divine Soul is far more profound, and it undergoes different changes at different levels.
An ordinary person's soul is usually a hazy white ball of light. At this stage, it can't be called a Divine Soul; it can only be called a life soul.
The life soul wanders aimlessly within the sea of consciousness.
Much like a person's thoughts—chaotic and unfocused.
Only by learning ditation can one stabilize it, reaching the level of Determination, allowing it to reside permanently within a Spiritual Acupoint, unmoving.
Once the life soul is stabilized within the Spiritual Acupoint, it can generate relatively strong Spiritual Power, begin to sense the body, and stimulate Blood Qi.
This is the beginning of cultivation.
After breaking through to the Innate realm, the Spiritual Acupoint opens up and transforms into a sea of consciousness, giving rise to Spiritual Sense.
And the life soul, after being baptized by Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, will also begin to transform.
It becos a relatively solid, illusory image.
For example, in Yang Xiao's first life, it was a ball of fire.
In his second life, having combined with the bloodline aura of the Human Race, it should have taken human form. Unfortunately, his body was sealed, making direct cultivation impossible.
Later on, by using the dicine Condensation Skill to refine an Unparalleled Divine Pill, he managed to evolve his life soul into a Divine Soul. He even unexpectedly cultivated it to the stage of Perfection. However, its form wasn't human, but that of a white Pill.
This life is a bit different. Perhaps it's because he absorbed the consciousness of this body's previous owner, or perhaps the Divine Soul Power from his first two lives was exhausted in the void.
Now, his Divine Soul faintly appears to have a human-like shape within it.
At the sa ti, there are two small dots that are currently too indistinct to identify.
However, Yang Xiao knew they were likely related to his previous two lives.
And now, there was also a small purple blade of grass. The grass emanated a purple radiance that flowed, bit by bit, into his Divine Soul.
With every bit that was infused, the cracks on his Divine Soul lessened significantly. Even its color and form showed faint signs of change.
Yang Xiao's spirit also began to recover rapidly.
The feeling was like a dying sapling suddenly coming back to life after a massive infusion of vitality.
And then growing strong and healthy.
It was a truly marvelous sensation.
However, this would take ti.
But would the people who were hunting him really give Yang Xiao that ti?
Obviously not.
Just as Yang Xiao was closing his eyes to rest and Yang Ziling was cultivating, a purple figure suddenly appeared ten li away.
After sensing its surroundings, it suddenly began to race toward Yang Xiao's location.
