For a cultivator at the Golden Core stage, thoughts can flicker through the mind in an instant.

Upon confirming that the panel was indeed changing, he realized that the so-called "Literary Vein Dragon Turtle" or the Seven Stars Unification were both Dharma Methods capable of inducing a certain qualitative change within the Wenxing Bamboo.

There was definitely a point of convergence between the two.

Moreover, unification first and then binding would undoubtedly be better than mere binding.

Li Ye nodded, "Then I shall purchase it..."

He was about to ostentatiously buy dozens of pots when he suddenly realized a problem—the panel provided binding for special needs or specifically cultivated tendencies.

Why was it that, with just a sweep of his divine sense,

there were over a hundred pots of Wenxing Bamboo here, all with identical binding explanations?

This uniformity could only imply one thing.

The Wenxing Bamboo itself had some significant deficiency that the entire species longed to fulfill.

If it were merely a matter of cultivation, it seemed too simple.

Why not use this opportunity to befriend the Bitter Journey Academy?

If he could resolve the Wenxing Bamboo's deficiency, he should be able to quickly build a reputation within the academy, which would make any future endeavors more convenient.

His brief contemplation led the shop owner to mistakenly believe he wasn't interested in buying.

The owner hurriedly said, "Is there any concern, Taoist Friend?"

Lv Qingge, beside him, pondered and, after a few glances at Li Ye, said, "Perhaps it's due to the item's deficiency."

He sighed, "You truly have keen eyes to discern the deficiency at a glance, so elucidate the matter to Taoist Friend Li to alleviate his concern."

"This..." The owner hesitated a bit, but finally conceded, "Since you said so, Mr. Lv, I won't hide it."

The item in question relies on the false starlight within our Xuanji Celestial Screen. When encountering genuine starlight, it dissipates, and the literary qi within naturally struggles to remain.

Even the Wenxing Bamboo itself transforms to the point of being unable to leave the vicinity of the academy."

"He's right," Lv Qingge continued, "The Beidou Seven Stars we cultivate cannot yet sustain themselves under the celestial conditions of this world, especially since the Beidou Seven Stars are but fragments of ethereal stars from another world brought here by our forebears."

"So, it's as I surmised," Li Ye's expression brightened with understanding.

He calmly stated, "I do have some divine techniques that might solve this deficiency."

Ah?

What?

This statement astonished both the owner and Lv Qingge.

After all, the Wenxing Bamboo has a history of millennia, and no predecessor, even with the assistance of the Four Seasons Sect, has managed to resolve its issue.

There were even practitioners at the Nascent Soul stage involved.

So now, Li Ye, at the Golden Core stage, claims he can resolve it.

"Truly?" Lv Qingge asked earnestly. He cupped his hands towards Li Ye, "It's not that I doubt you, Taoist Friend, but the matter is significant. Resolving the Wenxing Bamboo's deficiency would benefit countless people.

The Bitter Journey Academy would undoubtedly owe you and your sect a huge favor."

Lies of satisfaction formed in Li Ye's heart.

This was exactly what he was aiming for.

Previously, the Four Seasons Smooth Token had been of great assistance to him; with the sect's unconditional support, he felt compelled to repay the favor, planning to channel all the goodwill and benefits arising from this resolution back to the sect.

After all, once he demonstrated his capability, resources would naturally come to him; there was no need to hide his skills, and he should rise to prominence however he could.

Li Ye's tone remained composed, and his expression calm:

"I wouldn't say it if I weren't confident."

"Therefore, I would like to meet with the elders of your esteemed sect who can make decisions in this regard to discuss collaboration between the Four Seasons Sect and the Bitter Journey Academy."

The shop owner and Lv Qingge exchanged a glance.

The latter graciously extended an invitation, "Then let's head to the Boyue Tea House. Please wait a moment, Taoist Friends Li and Su, while I notify the elders."

"Oh, by the way,"

"You won't be bored there, as I will arrange for some unique spirit plants to be sent over. If any of them catch your interest, feel free to take them."

This was clearly a gesture of goodwill.

Gifts were directly sent over.

However, if you fail to meet expectations, the higher you rise, the harder you fall later.

Fortunately, Li Ye had confidence.

Thus, after he nodded, he and Su were led into a tea house by the tranquil lakeside, made of a wood called Moon Wave Wood.

The tea house had nine floors, offering a clear view of the serene lake reflecting the full moon in the distance. Most cultivators within were leisurely and relaxed.

They sipped from tiny cups of tea, their voices neither deliberately low nor loud, but rather soft and gentle.

The tea house's decorations were exquisite textiles, meticulously crafted with every thread infused with essence, qi, and spirit, an epitome of beauty.

Just by stepping in, one could sense tranquility permeating the heart, bringing immense comfort.

Li Ye ascended the steps, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

This place.

Or rather, the entire Boyue Tower, was made from the bodies of Demon Spirits!

And it was even associated with the "Nine Songs."

[Name]: Boyue Spirit Tower - Bo Yi

[Status]: A tower transformed from a Boyue Deer statue, enlightened by the Holy Book "Mountain Spirit," capable of altering its structure at will, calming the mind, and suppressing moonlight.
