As for the substance that fell towards the cliff below, with no obstruction from the surface of the ground, it was unknown what forces of the plunge would carry those faintly blue items to wherever underground.

The unseen places were not Shi Chun's concern, he only cared about the immediate present, hence he made a special trip to the great prison of Wukang Mountain.

The prison was a place he was quite familiar with. In a deep pit, he did not go down, but stood at the edge and glanced below. As expected, the bottom of the pit indeed accumulated a considerable amount of the faintly blue substance.

He touched the iron-hard ground, remembering the time when he had used his right eye superpower to survey this land from the mountain base, Wukang Mountain was an enormous stump of a tree, its grandeur before breaking was unfathomable.

The tree's very presence could support the faintly blue items that lay between the ephemeral and the real.

He looked up, pondering, long ago when the colossal tree still stood, whether the aurora-like colors would have been entwined around the treetop, what a sight that would have been.

The talisman on his body suddenly heated up, he took it out and saw a message from Bian Weiyin, "Where did you go? Do you still want to go over there and see?"

And so, Shi Chun stood up and returned, seeking her out again.

At Bian Weiyin's residence, when they met again, others were present, so neither displayed anything unusual, but Bian Weiyin felt comfortable in her heart. She didn't really have anything particular in mind to show Shi Chun in the Forbidden Land, it was simply a pretext to spend time with him.

Her status and the environment she grew up in shaped her public image, along with her ambitious endeavors, she had to consider her reputation. Thus, most of the time, it was Bian Weiyin as if the City Lord herself, no one could see her daughterly affection, or rather, no one could see her private desires.

An accident brought Shi Chun into the private realm beyond her defenses, hence in her private domain, she was no longer alone.

In that darkness, where she thought she might never emerge from again, she dared to let go.

But upon returning to Wukang Mountain, the private moments she shared with Shi Chun ceased, which often made her long for the times spent outside.

Now knowing that Shi Chun would soon depart, she increasingly longed for more time together.

Of course, in accommodating Shi Chun, she also harbored some expectations of him.

It was because of that dark experience that Shi Chun's Cultivation Technique seemed to grant him night vision or something of the sort. Since he expressed a desire to take a look, perhaps he might really bring about some noteworthy discovery.

She, of course, wanted the refining secret method for the immobilization charm. After Shi Chun left, she would still be her and wanted to compete for the position of Sect Master.

Right now, had there not been others present, she would have already desired to embrace, hug, and kiss him.

This natural wonder continued for approximately three hours, and by the time it dissipated, it was the latter part of the night.

All of the Yulan Bamboo had been collected, quickly entering the third phase of inner refining called burning the dark, where a large amount of Yulan Bamboo had to be completely burnt to ashes, and must be burnt in specific Magic Artifacts, which was no small undertaking.

Although much of the faintly blue items had been carried off by the Yulan Bamboo, Shi Chun, walking inside and outside the courtyard, discovered that the ground of Wukang Mountain was still littered with plenty of the stuff. In many places, it even accumulated, a pity that others couldn't see it—truly a waste of heavenly resources.

He found it odd, if these items could accumulate, why had he not seen past remnants at the mountain peak before?

He faintly realized that these items probably had a limited time to be exposed.

Bian Weiyin emerged from the courtyard, passing by him she softly called, "Let's go."

And so, Shi Chun followed her.

Outside the Sect's Forbidden Land, a large amount of symbol paper, completed in the fourth step of refining, was being escorted under strict supervision to the gates of the Forbidden Land.

Lead elders Yi Huachun and Feng Youzhi both participated in the escort, while Sect Master Bian Jixiong stood in front of the tightly closed stone gate to receive them.

After confirming count, all the symbol papers were placed inside a Qiankun Bag, and Bian Jixiong signed for it.

Then elders Yi Huachun and Feng Youzhi themselves spread out to guard around the Forbidden Land, vigilantly preventing anyone from approaching.

Bian Jixiong pushed open the stone doors and was met with the sight of the white-robed Bian Que, meditating cross-legged.

Bian Jixiong entered, closed the door, knelt before his father to perform a respectful salutation, then rose and entered through a side door into a spacious stone chamber beyond.

Inside the chamber was a pool that had just been filled halfway with clear water.

Even though he knew his father was guarding the place and there would be no issues, he still meticulously inspected the entire chamber, leaving no anomaly unchecked, even a tiny ant would be killed.

After making sure everything was in order, he approached the pool of clear water and took out a gourd, shaking it, he poured in a batch of medicinal powder.

After that, he stripped off his shoes, socks, and clothes, jumped into the pool, and began moving about, waving his hands to stir, causing the medicinal powder and clear water to quickly react, turning the water gradually murky yellow.

Outside of the Forbidden Land, Shi Chun frowned from atop a pavilion, observing the changes in Bian Jixiong's body. Not knowing what Cultivation Technique was performed, as the movement of his limbs stirred the water, plumes of red mist evaporated from his body, blending into the water.

His right eye superpower did not reveal the color of the medicine, but he could see the red mist, released after Bian Jixiong's technique, mingling with the water and lingering without dissipating.

A male Disciple, who harbored affections for Bian Weiyin, witnessing the two alone atop the pavilion, left with a tight face, going to complain to Yin Huixing, being Wei Bian's junior and also a disciple of Huixing.

Bian Jixiong, who had stirred in the water for a while, took out a large amount of symbol papers from the Qiankun Bag, scattered them into the water, and then walked and stirred in the paper-laden water, performing a technique to press the papers into the water for soaking.
