Senior Hu Taotao was quite fast.

After seeing the strange dusky wish silkworms and the brand new Zhu Yu, she immediately sent a message, and shortly afterward, a door made of pink glow burst open...

A group of foxes.

Although they were all Qingqiu Foxes, their fur colors varied—most commonly white, then pink, crimson, and even multicolored ones.

The fox with the most "vivid" colors stood up on its hind legs, holding its paws while curiously gazing over here. Li Ye always felt that this creature resembled that kind of idler who roams around aimlessly.

True Man Moqi, sitting at the head, also gave it another look.

This made True Man Hu Taotao, who had been smiling all along, suddenly cold down her face, and she angrily scolded, "Dying your fur again, do you like being unique that much? You might as well ask Ling Shan Pavilion for some spices to marinate with while you're at it.

When I have time, I'll peel your skin and stew you to taste if you're a mix of flavors."

It was apparent that this colorful fox had done such things more than once, otherwise, an esteemed Nascent Soul of the Qingqiu Fox wouldn't be so enraged.

But facing Hu Taotao's reprimand, the fox transformed into a rather tall, albeit slightly frail, extremely handsome young man.

His colorful hair was so dazzling that it almost overshadowed the handsome appearance typical of a Qingqiu Fox.

"Great-grandmother."

The young man grinned cheekily, "No need to be angry, I was just researching dyes and inadvertently used my own fur for experiments."

He even took out a bottle of dye.

Li Ye, who had been sitting back watching the show, suddenly felt the spiritual power emanating from that dye and said:

"I wonder what materials were used to make this dye..."

Li Ye's sudden inquiry caused True Man Hu Taotao, who was about to reprimand further, to pause, filled with confusion in her eyes.

Could it be that this boy's dye has something special?

If it's truly useful, perhaps she wouldn't have scolded him so harshly.

The youth, a cultivator named Hu Feng, upon hearing this, glanced at Li Ye and answered very earnestly:

"This was made using water from Weichuan, combined with Void Ink Silk purchased from True Man Li, and the sunset glow from the sky."

Indeed.

Li Ye suddenly understood.

He realized why he felt a somewhat familiar spiritual power inside it.

Moreover.

The spiritual power fused remarkably well, and crucially, the energy contained within the colors wasn't overwhelmed. This dyeing technique is truly impressive.

Unexpectedly, there was indeed a pleasant surprise. If this friend could assist, he might actually achieve a previous conception.

He glanced at Hu Feng thoughtfully.

Then he respectfully addressed True Man Hu Taotao, sitting at the head:

"Senior."

"I noticed that Friend Hu Feng possesses a noteworthy talent in the blending of spiritual power. I happen to have an idea I'd like to entrust to Friend Hu Feng..."

With that, he revealed his earlier conception.

It was a thought that came about during his time at Bitter Journey Academy after witnessing some divine techniques of magic—simply put, creating scrolls and vestment robes through techniques like dyeing and embroidery.

The scrolls naturally mimic the world within the painting of the Locust Spirit Scroll, while the vestment robes are among the best-selling artifacts today.

A well-crafted vestment robe can even be sold for several times the price of a storage magical artifact—that indeed relates to the current state of the Cultivation Realm, as the production of space-related artifacts isn't overly difficult, making the cheaper ones extremely cheap, but the expensive ones very costly.

The cheap ones being things like storage pouches and rings.

The expensive ones being portable caves, Grotto Heaven, and the like.

Of course.

The vestment robe Li Ye wanted to make had basic effects like cleaning, the most crucial being the transformative effect of stitching turning spiritual.

The spiritual silkworms he cultivated all possessed extraordinary spirituality. As long as the embroiderer could use silk to stitch out a "body," and then activate it, it would become a summoned "Embroidery Spirit."

Moreover, this Embroidery Spirit could change its own spiritual power based on different spiritual dyes, with embroidery artisans specialized in creating such spirits at Bitter Journey Academy.

A vestment robe able to summon an Embroidery Spirit to assist could be priced at tens or even hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones.

This was partly due to the extremely expensive materials, but mainly because of the embroidery craft itself.

Regrettably, there are very few people proficient in embroidery, familiar with using Void Ink Spirit Silkworm silk, and capable of dyeing; he had searched within his sect several times without finding a suitable person.

Ultimately, he had to shelve it helplessly.

And now, it seemed there was an opportunity to achieve it.

He held a sense of anticipation.

After speaking, he looked at True Man Hu Taotao, awaiting her response.

Li Ye's sudden inquiry caused True Man Hu Taotao, who had been about to continue reprimanding, to pause. The anger in her eyes slightly diminished, reflecting a trace of puzzlement and deliberation.

This Friend Li, with his extraordinary insights, since he spoke up, could it be that Hu Feng's mischievous dye indeed has some significance? If beneficial for the collaboration, this young man might eventually enter Li Ye's core circle.

But does he truly have this ability?

Can he succeed?

If unsuccessful, that would be quite embarrassing in front of old friends.

After Li Ye explained his idea, before True Man Hu Taotao could respond, a calm white fox among the foxes stepped forward, transforming into a person, and softly said:
