"Hahaha!"

Regaining his confidence, Senior Brother Chen boldly patted Li Ye on the shoulder. "Don't be sad; I'll introduce you when the time comes."

"You shouldn't always be cooped up in the cave mansion cultivating. There are many fun things to do in the Spirit Race. During the few years I spent there, I encountered many interesting things. I'll tell you about them."

"Look, these are the gifts my friends and confidants have sent me."

It was evident that Senior Brother Chen was indeed someone with a wide network, much broader than Li Ye's.

He took out the shed shell of a Xuan Turtle, the feather of a Wen Yaoyu, a Bifang tail feather...

Li Ye was simply left in awe.

Third Senior Brother was truly earnest and well-meaning.

Everyone of the Su Xing lineage loved wandering around. Even Junior Brother Spiritual Mechanism Vine couldn't sit still and wanted to transform and go out.

Did such a junior brother who stayed in the cave mansion cultivating all day really come out?

Could this be a case of extremes meeting?

"Actually, Junior Brother hasn't been staying in the cave mansion all the time. I even went to the Southern Domain recently to form my core," Li Ye retorted, feeling slightly lacking in confidence.

To avoid him taking out anything else that would astound him,

Li Ye quickly interrupted him. "Senior Brother, I'm already well aware of your prowess. Let's discuss the matters of the array here.

Other Uncle Masters have pointed their fingers at Uncle Master Lu, but they only praised me. Do you sense anything amiss?"

After all, this involved an array he didn't understand well, so he was a bit worried about not performing well.

Third Senior Brother looked puzzled. "What are you talking about? You don't think the Uncle Masters would praise you without reason, do you?

You did a good job, that's why they praise you.

If you didn't, they'd scold you harshly. Now that you're a Golden Core True Man, you're not the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment kid who needs protection!"

So I really did well?

Li Ye had an expression of slight confusion on his face.

Seeing this, Senior Brother Chen's earlier confidence from showing off seemed to be slightly suppressed again. He sighed deeply. "The Qi Fortune Array is the most troublesome array within the sect.

You helped construct such a troublesome array on your first attempt, and you did well. If you belittle yourself further, it's not modesty but arrogance!"

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Seeing you like this makes me want to spar with you! How about we have a duel?"

"That won't be necessary," Li Ye quickly shook his head. "But I heard from Master that you're quite accomplished in Combat Spirit Plants. How about teaching me sometime?"

——The so-called Combat Spirit Plant refers to a series of Primordial Spirit Plants that grow rapidly and are used in Magical Duels. Even the Demon-Suppressing Tree falls under Combat Spirit Plant.

"Combat Spirit Plants, huh." Third Senior Brother became serious for once, gazing thoughtfully at the distant river. "Actually, using Combat Spirit Plants depends on whether you're accustomed to using them.

We cultivators need to possess our own power. Magical Treasures and such are just methods.

How about this, attack me with all your might.

I'll see how your Spiritual Power is."

"...Really use my full strength?" Li Ye hesitated.

"What's there to be afraid of?"

"I won't mock you for your mana depth."

"We're here in Weichuan, and Weichuan Lady can dissipate some aftermath, so nothing will go wrong."

Third Senior Brother stood there with ease, saying lightly, "Go ahead."

"Then please excuse me."

Since Third Senior Brother said to go all out, Li Ye didn't hold back. He mobilized all his Spiritual Power, even donning that Rice Robe.

A terrifying amount of Spiritual Power gathered around him, enough to create halos of Spiritual Power that spread out.

The halos outshone the sun above and the unceasing waters of Weichuan in the distance!

Especially his Lifebound Magical Treasure, which was spinning wildly, with its sun, moon, and Yin Yang lights changing rapidly, transforming into a murky mass of Spiritual Power.

Third Senior Brother felt something was off immediately.

This can't be right.

Wasn't it said that advancing quickly might mean slightly weaker mana?

Master deceived me!

As the Spiritual Power around Li Ye gathered, Third Senior Brother suddenly felt as if he had been tricked by the old man.

When he came, the old man said Li Ye progressed too quickly, perhaps with unstable mana, and specifically sent him to test it.

Is this what they call unstable mana?

If this is unstable, then what is he?

At this moment, he truly wished to back out.

But having already spoken boldly, especially to his junior brother, calling it off now would be quite embarrassing.

So he decided to get serious.

With a wave of his hand—

Various Spirit Plants rapidly grew around him, with lotuses, vines, trees, grass... The number of plants was endless.

All these different spiritual energies were under his control and vaguely formed an array.

The traces of this Spiritual Power manipulation were evidently also part of the Five Elements Spirit Ascension Technique.

Li Ye finally finished his preparations, holding a branch of the Jianmu, pointing lightly at his Senior Brother.

"Senior Brother."

"Be cautious!"

The next moment, the top of the Jianmu branch erupted with dazzling, blinding Five-Colored Radiance. There were no fancy magic or flashy Divine Techniques.

It's known that Jianmu's power inherently has the might of space, generally speaking, merely breaking with force is most feared of Spatial Divine Power.

But Li Ye had Jianmu, so he didn't fear this.

Just exerting the force would hit—at least the Golden Core is like this.

"Whoosh!"

The Five-Colored Radiance instantly overwhelmed the Combat Spirit Plants that Third Senior Brother had just set up and collided with Third Senior Brother's Spiritual Power.
