Meng Li was suddenly annoyed. It may have been the hidden stress from being thrown in here suddenly erupting, or the long periods of cultivation finally striking back.

[There are orders to notify you of this when you reach Nascent Soul, but there are no orders that I can"t tell you before hand. Master actually needs help - however, before that, you need to reach a certain level of cultivation. However, you can"t rush - your foundation must be stable. That"s why, master has prepared tests. When you reach Nascent Soul, when you"re ready, a piece of your soul will be sent into the world you"ve created to reincarnate as a mortal. You must cultivate up to your original level of cultivation and merge with that piece of your soul, or the laws master left behind will prevent you from reaching Origin Soul. Nothing bad will happen if you fail - the piece of your soul will return unharmed, but you"ll have to attempt the test again and again, until you succeed.] the system dumped a lot of information on him once again.
Meng Li asked carefully.[Nothing. However, it will be impossible for the people to sense anything out of the ordinary about your clone. And even doing something like that will have its" challenges - people are evil by nature, and there will be no shortage of people pretending to be your reincarnation, or trying to harm you, etc.] the system replied. Any interaction with the outside world would help him, and if Meng Li was able to set up a foolproof way of cheating, that proved his abilities too.
Overall, the tests set up by the mysterious master were meant to help him grow, not make him fail. And even if he did fail, there was no punishment - he had unlimited tries.
Meng Li asked once again.[No. Your original body will fall into a deep sleep to prevent any injuries to the soul. Only when you"ve completed the test will the original body wake up for the fusion ceremony. During that ceremony, you will be controlling two bodies - you will not become two different beings.] the system once again answered his questions. The test were indeed quite hard.
[Restricted - you can only summon items of your cultivation level, not above.]
It wasn"t good, but it was still better than nothing. Meng Li was relieved. However, he soon stopped the questioning session as the tests were too far in the future for the current him.
Meng Li returned to the original topic.[You will be able to exit by yourself only when you reach the level master ordered. However, there might be a way to send Ye Jian out, but only after you reach Nascent Soul Realm.]
With the new information, Meng Li relaxed. He didn"t want Ye Jian to become trapped in his world, so he needed to cultivate, fast.
"I will be able to send you out when I reach Nascent Soul." Meng Li answered Ye Jian. The conversation with the system was extremely fast, and he wasn"t silent for a long period of time.
"Huh... That"s better than nothing. Are you at least able to let me break through to your level of cultivation?" Ye Jian was relieved and asked Meng Li once again.
"This..." Meng Li was stunned. He had to ask the system once again.
[Yes. However, there are limited uses for this.]
Meng Li commanded. He had no idea what to do himself, so he could only leave it to the system.At the time Meng Li gave out the command, the Qi in the area around Ye Jian started to churn. If there were any clouds in the sky, they would"ve been punctured just above Ye Jian"s head, as a thin thread made from laws had descended from the void above the atmosphere. It was like a pillar, extending into the heavens. However, its" origin couldn"t be seen.
The churning of Qi in the area became more and more violent, with the faint thread growing in size, eventually enveloping Ye Jian. Ye Jian wasn"t actually aware of what was going on - he had fallen unconscious the moment the thread connected with his head.
The power of laws gradually grew in strength, and started to give out light. It was an extremely eye-catching happening - a pillar of light connecting the heaven and earth.
The Qi, although violent, did nothing to harm Meng Li. His hair and clothes were flapping, but no harm actually came to him. However, the tress in the valley were actually being uprooted, and the water in the stream below him was actually forced out of the area by an invisible pressure.
Meng Li looked emotionlessly at the pillar of light, but at a certain moment, his face changed slightly. When he noticed the extreme changes which suddenly occurred, he used his Spiritual Sense to envelop the immediate area. The mortals in Qingshui city weren"t affected by the chaotic Qi, and the most they felt was a strong wind. However, practically every cultivator on the planet had noticed the commotion. Many powerful presences had popped up, and Meng Li could even sense a Qi Sea cultivator making his way over. It was troublesome - Meng Li didn"t want to reveal his existence, and he had a feeling that Ye Jian would also prefer to be anonymous. The extreme show caused by whatever the system did made practically everyone think that there was a treasure to be found in the area. Thus, many people made their way over.
Meng Li commanded.The system didn"t reply, but Meng Li could sense a small change in the Qi flow surrounding him. It was extremely small, and with the storm in the surroundings, extremely easy to miss. However, Meng Li noticed it. He could tell that the change increased the strength of the storm to the point where even peak Qi Sea cultivators wouldn"t be able to enter an area of 1 km around the pillar of light.
He didn"t sense any changes in regards to him being invisible, but he believed the system wouldn"t lie to him.
As he calmly sat on the rock, he thought of how to handle the situation. With everyone thinking that a treasure had appeared, they would definitely be extremely confused if nothing was present, and would search the surroundings. Meng Li didn"t want that to happen - he would have to plant some treasure here.
he asked the system.[None with such strength, but there are some with similar, but weaker effects.] the system replied and showed him the items. There were many of them, but Meng Li could actually see the end of the list. After all, the summoning tab was extremely vast, but not infinite.
In the end, Meng Li had decided on a spiritual herb - a tree. It was called the "Heaven Connecting Tea Tree". The leaves of the tree were extremely beneficial, and could be made into a tea to strengthen the effects. It sped up cultivation and increased a cultivator"s comprehension. If taken for a long period of time, it would permanently increase the cultivator"s comprehension, but the effect was mostly gone in a few hours. However, the tree was still a heavenly treasure and could practically elevate a normal sect into the strongest sect in the world - provided that they could keep it, of course.
Meng Li summoned the tree. It was only useful to people at his level, so it was extremely easy. When he summoned it, it didn"t cause any reaction - the heavenly changes were only present when such a treasure appeared naturally. As it was summoned, nothing out of the ordinary happened.
Meng Li planted the small tree near the stream. It was close enough to the pillar of light to be within the cultivators" margin of error.
He protected the small sapling from the storm of Qi with a small barrier. Now that everything was settled, he could only wait. Then, he would teleport away with Ye Jian. However, he needed to confirm something first.
[Yes.] Fortunately, he could. Otherwise, Meng Li would have to think of something to hide his existence... Unnecessary effort was something Meng Li preferred to avoid.
The pillar of light actually stayed in its" place for several hours. This period of time was enough for many experts to make their way over - some who belonged to the Full Moon Empire, but the majority were rogue cultivators. After all, Qingshui town was a remote town located near the border - not a place where experts would gather. The border was also peaceful. The closest settlements not from the Full Moon Empire were the tribes of the paradise islands archipelago. Surprisingly, the islands were actually closer to the town than the capital of the Full Moon Empire.
After several hours of waiting, some experts from the tribes have arrived. They were all of the Qi Sea realm, with two at the peak. They seemed to be the leader of two tribes. What surprised Meng Li was that one of them was actually flying despite being only a Qi Sea Cultivator. A quick scan with Spiritual Sense revealed to him the truth - the man actually had a treasure which enabled flight, like the one Meng Li summoned when he was a Qi Sea cultivator.
Several hours later, when the sun was about to set, the pillar of light actually started to decrease in strength. It started slow, with it becoming more and more thin, but a few minutes after, it was completely gone. With it, the turbulent Qi was gone as well, and all the experts were free to pour in. Meng Li quickly stood up and caught Ye Jian, who was still unconscious, and teleported away. In less than a minute, the cultivators started pouring in. After spotting the tea tree, all of them rushed to take it, and a great battle had broken out. Fortunately, the tree was s.n.a.t.c.hed from the ground quickly, so no one noticed the ground showed some signs of it being planted there. However, this had nothing to do with Meng Li.
He was carrying Ye Jian and walking down towards his house. He knew that Ye Jin and Xie Ja weren"t home yet - the spectacle of light wasn"t important enough to make them abandon their job and come home. They would return in less than an hour. However, Ye Jian would need to wake up before that.
Fortunately, it didn"t take long for Ye Jian to wake up. He was confused, and Meng Li wasn"t surprised. After all, he suddenly fell unconscious and woke up in a stranger"s house.
"Where am I?" Ye Jian asked carefully while standing up.
"My house. I made it so that you can break through to my realm, but it caused a bit of a disturbance. I had no other option than to plant some decoy and take you here." Meng Li replied, while sipping tea. The tea made from the Heaven Connecting Tea Tree"s leaves was quite good, he had to admit.
"Want a cup?" Meng Li asked, motioning towards the table. Ye Jian sat down, and Meng Li poured him a cup.
"Good tea!" Ye Jian said, after sipping some. Meng Li could see some resemblance in Ye Jian with how a person would drink wine, not tea.
"It"s called "Heaven Connecting Tea Tree". I took some leaves when I planted it there - the symptoms of it appearing are similar to what happened with you." Meng Li explained casually.
"Heaven Connecting Tea Tree? I remember that"s quite a rare spiritual herb. The tea made from its" leaves also carries many advantages to cultivation and comprehension." Ye Jian praised. His eyes lit up, and he couldn"t help but eye the kettle. The comprehension increase was negligible with his past cultivation base - how could a Qi Foundation spiritual herb help an Origin Soul cultivator? However, the speed benefit for cultivating was very helpful to him. The effect was strong, but gentle - it was safe for even Qi Gathering cultivators to drink. However, who would waste such a heavenly resource on Qi Gathering cultivators? The answer was Meng Li.
"Sure, take some." He threw half of the leaves he had to Ye Jian. They were practically useless for him, but they tasted good. If Ye Jian needed more, he would simply summon some.
"Oh, and you"ll probably need some storage. Take this." Meng Li casually threw a small bag at Ye Jian. He had summoned another bag for Ye Jian, the same size as the one he had, and transferred the sea serpent"s corpse inside. It was a small gift to him - he wondered if Ye Jian would be able to do something useful with it.
"Thanks." Ye Jian caught the bag easily and bound it to himself. As he sent his consciousness inside, he was surprised at the serpent and sent a questioning look at Meng Li. Meng Li didn"t respond and continued sipping his tea.
Ye Jian simply shrugged his shoulders and put the tea leaves into the bag. He then attached the bag to his hip - it didn"t look out of place on him, since it was extremely small. As he prepared to exit, Ye Jian remembered something.
"Hey, brother Meng, one thing... Could you give me a tea set too?" he embarra.s.sedly asked Meng Li.
