Qingqiu Mingli, with the Blood Demon floating slowly behind her, saw her tiny eyes reflecting the image of a small white flower.
"This flower might have some connection to the Big Chun seed you're looking for," Liang Yi explained on the side.
"Hmm??"
Yu Wei looked at the small white flower floating in front of the Blood Demon with surprise and a touch of confusion.
The surprise came from the sought-after object appearing right before his eyes, but confusion set in when the Big Chun seed, known for encompassing the reviving power of spring, turned out not to be a seed but a flower?
Hearing Liang Yi's words, Su Youyi, Yue Bai, and others were still a bit puzzled, unclear about the relationship between this flower and the Ancient Divine Wood, Big Chun. However, Qingqiu Mingli and Zhou Yuqing had already reacted and understood.
No wonder even they could only sense the flower's unusual charm but couldn't discern the details.
The Divine Wood, Big Chun itself, embodies spring, transforming into a flower as if a drop of water were joining the sea—an invisible, intangible droplet merging with the world, imperceptible even to a power of the Ninth Realm.
And this flower was in a similar situation...
Only now, after Zhou Yuqing learned the truth, could she carefully observe and detect faint traces of the natural Law within the early spring aura emanating from the small white flower.
Yu Wei was originally quite happy. After all the fruitless searching, his efforts were rewarded effortlessly—Liang Yi was indeed a great brother!
Now, if he could just take this flower back, the early spring sentiment within it could revive his father. The current undercurrents within the Wind God Commerce would no longer be a problem.
But then Yu Wei suddenly realized a troubling issue...
Beyond saving his father, this flower also carried other symbolic meanings! It was the love token Feng Luoshu sent to Qingqiu Lingsi and the only relic of the two now.
In some respects, whether it's the Valley Master of Lonely Moon Valley or the Blood Demon chief, both use this object to cherish their sorrow. Thus, getting the flower from them would truly be difficult.
Moreover, the current owner of this flower was Liang Yi. Although he was good brothers with Liang Yi, business between brothers should still be settled clearly.
He, Yu Wei, the son of the greatest merchant, heir to the largest commerce association, had always adhered to the principle of fair trade. To obtain something, one must give something in return.
As Yu Wei scratched his head anxiously, the Blood Demon, which had been holding the small white flower with two ethereal tentacles, made a move.
Under the continuous caressing of the tentacles, a shimmering light burst forth from the juvenile and plain white flower, drawing everyone's gaze.
Su Youyi, who had been standing by Liang Yi's side, wore a somewhat sentimental expression, her mind stirred by the recent story. But as the light shone, she couldn't help but raise her head to look.
Seeing that frail Spirit Light, Liang Yi vaguely perceived it to be a strand of Origin Spiritual Light.
"This is..."
In Qingqiu Mingli's eyes, there was a hint of disbelief as she stared blankly at the Blood Demon slowly bringing the Spiritual Light to her hand. In that indistinct light, she seemed to see the smiling face of her beloved disciple.
"So it turns out that Feng Luoshu actually recognized the origin of this flower!"
Upon seeing the Spiritual Light, Zhou Yuqing suddenly realized the true intent of Feng Luoshu giving the flower to Qingqiu Lingsi.
"Elder brother, what is this?"
Su Youyi quietly leaned towards Liang Yi and asked.
Although she could tell that the spirit light was related to a cultivator's origin, she didn't fully understand its significance.
"A fragment of Qingqiu spiritual thought's origin light, with this bit of spirit light, the Qingqiu spiritual thought can reincarnate into a human in this life!"
Not only Su Youyi, but even Yue Bai and Zhou Zuixi were confused, staring at Liang Yi with puzzled looks, while only Old Master Orange and Liu Rouxin, who had been informed of the truth by Xue Youyou, remained composed as if they understood everything.
"If one cultivates to a certain realm, recovering memories from a past life is not difficult."
"Reincarnation, recovering memories from a past life..."
Su Youyi pondered, in the Cultivation World, it was occasional for cultivators who reached a certain realm to awaken the wisdom of their past lives, but few cultivators chose to do this.
Most cultivators on the Mystical Mechanism Continent adhere to the belief that ash returns to ash, earth returns to earth, and after death, the body returns to nature.
If there were top cultivators who did not want to die, there were ways to avoid the passage of time, and living for one epoch was not difficult. Once reaching the Ninth Realm, they could even have a lifespan as long as the heavens and exist in the Time River.
In the First Epoch, there were not a few such beings, but the reason they did not live to the present is simply that they did not wish to cling to life at all costs.
Liang Yi's eyes reflected that trace of spirit light, and he could roughly guess the reason for its appearance with a casual thought.
Feng Luoshu might not recognize the [Ancient Divine Wood], but the Blood Demon might. When it comes to sensitivity to the force of life, the Blood Demon is undoubtedly the best, so it's normal for him to notice something odd within the small white flower.
At that time, they were in a state of being hunted, and with Feng Luoshu's temperament, he certainly wouldn't want Qingqiu's spiritual thought to die with him, but he couldn't stop Qingqiu's spiritual thought either, so he could only preserve a bit of his beloved's vitality in this way.
Love is inherently selfish, selfishly loving you, selfishly wanting you alive, even if it's difficult for the other person to accept.
"Then Feng Luoshu..."
Su Youyi suddenly asked.
Since a trace of Qingqiu's True Spirit remained, couldn't Feng Luoshu also use this method to be reborn?
Su Youyi still sincerely hoped that both of them could be reincarnated in this epoch and have a happy ending.
Thinking of her and her senior brother, if they became dao companions and had shared all sorts of beautiful experiences only to face life-and-death separation, she probably would also collapse, right?
"Luo Shu... can't."
The Blood Demon's ethereal voice sounded, and he tossed the white flower back to Liang Yi.
"This is [Ancient Divine Wood], which blooms once every eighty thousand years, not once every eight thousand years like Big Chun."
Liang Yi took the white flower and was stunned for a moment after hearing what the Blood Demon said. He hadn't expected the other party to recognize it; he thought that they had merely recognized its origins.
"Ancient Divine Wood... does it have the same effect as Big Chun's seed?" Yu Wei felt a bit confused, feeling that Ancient Divine Wood did indeed sound impressive, but was it greatly relevant to the Big Chun's seed he needed?
"It's countless times better than that. If you need Big Chun's seed to save someone, just extract a strand of the essence of Ancient Divine Wood and blend it into a common Chun tree's seed; the topmost leaf on the tree will be Big Chun's seed."
The words of the Blood Demon were like a reassuring pill, directly calming down Yu Wei's heart, which had been stuck in his throat.
