Transition

Stones do not have ordinary senses like eyes; in fact, their senses are quite mysterious, rooted in their 'consciousness'.

As a spirit formed from a piece of jade, he naturally experiences the existence of 'pure consciousness' because his body is pure spirit, and his physical organs and flesh are completely different.

This is a 'Dao Rule Reader', and it's innate.

However, in reality, if the jade breaks, the stone will also die. After all, although the spirit is pure consciousness, it still has its own material basis and cannot exist independently.

But this also leads to a small thing: the 'gaze' of a stone can be sensed. When you are 'stared at' by a stone, you will have a 'The Unseen' feeling, as if something is watching you.

This is actually some interference with the consciousness of others caused by the Dao Rule Reader during its scanning process.

Therefore, Li Shiwei sensed the stone's gaze at that moment.

"Hmm? Is there a problem?" Li Shiwei asked.

"It's nothing, boss. Let's go. True Lord Chizhong should be ready by now, and then we can head to Liesu." Stone suggested setting off immediately.

"Okay, let's go!" Li Shiwei excitedly sheathed her sword, then rode the clouds away, riding the strong winds, flying towards their predetermined destination.

According to the original plan, she would go to find Yang Ning herself, and then follow Yang Ning's next group of people to the Sacred Flame Realm.

Then, he parted ways with the others and traveled alone by a large ship from the Sacred Flame Realm to the edge of the world cluster, where he participated in a Seventh Rank World temporarily named 'Sea Hunting Realm'.

The natives of this world are willing to cooperate, but they are far from conquering the entire world. There are still a large number of Savage Beast in the Sea Hunting Realm, powerful wild animals without intelligence or civilization.

These Savage Beast occupied the entire ocean and most of the land.

And these are all excellent materials.

However, they cannot be exterminated. If they are not allowed to reproduce, it would be like losing a natural breeding ground for Savage Beast.

However, for the Sea Hunting Realm, these Savage Beasts are extremely dangerous, and every now and then a 'beast tide' will appear, sweeping through the already limited civilized territory and causing huge losses.

Therefore, the people of Mount Luofu and the Sea Hunting Realm reached an agreement that they would not interfere too much with the natural development of the Sea Hunting Realm, but they would send people to regularly suppress the beast tides of the Sea Hunting Realm.

However, all the materials and supplies that are cleared out after the beast tide is over will be taken away and stored as cargo. About once every twenty years, a large ship will come and take these resources away, deliver supplies, and then continue its journey into the next cargo cycle.

The large ship that Li Shiwei was on was the one that was used once every twenty years to collect cargo and resupply supplies.

Li Shiwei's task was also very simple. She would go to the Sacred Flame Realm, follow the ship, and work as an ordinary crew member. Her specific responsibilities would be to guard the ship. After landing in the Sea Hunting Realm, she would take a communal Mustard Seed Bag to deliver supplies to various bases and then collect the resources from these bases.

It was well-organized; it was essentially just social practice.

But that alone was enough to make Li Shiwei overjoyed.

Don't you see how many college graduates end up doing manual labor as interns, working with great enthusiasm for meager wages? Li Shiwei is currently in that stage.

However, Li Qi still paid her wages as usual, and she had to rely on her own wages to cover all her expenses outside.

Because at home, she had no concept of money at all; she would just take anything and use it. It was only after she went out that she needed money to support herself.

But they weren't actually that short of money. Li Qi and the people of Mount Luofu respected the labor of their subordinates. They were given provisions based on the value they created, while Li Qi only took his share. So most of them weren't short of money.

However, Li Qi actually took a considerable share, since the formation of the World Group was his, and the entire organization was named after him. Although he did not actually participate in its operation, he was the one who basically built the entire framework, so Li Qi was not short of resources.

In addition, the Shaman Path itself does not require much cultivation resources. Most of the money that Li Qi and his wife earned was actually used by Shen Shuibi. Shen Shuibi did not need that much. Generally speaking, the extra money was given to Yang Ning to continue to maintain the existence of this organization.

Since we can't use all that money, we might as well distribute it to our subordinates. This will also help us expand the organization and earn more money in the future.

Li Shiwei had already learned about these things beforehand, but she didn't pay much attention to them.

Like her parents, she didn't place much importance on the resources for spiritual practice.

As for money, enough is enough.

Only those who are short of money will treat it like a treasure.

People who have never lacked money tend to be less concerned about it.

Li Shiwei is a typical example of a young punk who has never lacked money, has never been beaten down by society, and is so arrogant and reckless that she rushes headlong into the world.

And she was indeed a rabbit, but she didn't inherit any rabbit characteristics. After all, Shen Shuibi wasn't a real rabbit; she was just a moon spirit manifesting as a jade rabbit.

Li Shiwei possesses some characteristics of the moon spirit. For example, her pupils change color according to the phases of the moon, she can easily control the Taiyin Qi, and even her gender is influenced by the Taiyin Qi.

In short, this little rascal excitedly ran to Yang Ning's team to report for duty.

However, Yang Ning didn't have time to see her in person, so he directly assigned her to the team.

Next, Li Shiwei will follow this group to Liesu, and then to the Sea Hunting Realm.

The current group will transport approximately two thousand people to Liesu via a transport Law Treasure, from Liesu will distribute them to different world groups.

The eager little rascal, carrying a sword and filled with curiosity, stood among the crowd, gazing at the transport Law Treasure he was about to board.

"Wow... this is the Treasure Gourd?" Li Shiwei looked up curiously at the Law Treasure she was about to ascend.

Since it was an organization led by the people of Mount Luofu, the means of transportation used was the kind commonly used by Daoist sects, and at this moment, they were using a Treasure Gourd.

The gourd was about seven or eight zhang long and looked like a small boat. A Daoist priest was standing on the gourd, in charge of opening and closing the gate and guiding people. The whole place was on a mountain, and everyone lined up along the mountain path.

When you reach the gourd-shaped opening in the queue, just wait for the Daoist priest to call your name, and then you respond. The gourd opening will then generate a suction force that will pull you in.

Li Shiwei knew this; she had read about it in books, specifically the tales of immortals. "There was True Person immortal named Fei Changfang, who once served as a market official. In the market, there was an old man selling medicine, who hung a pot at the head of his stall. Every time the market closed, he would jump into the pot. No one in the market saw it, except for Changfang, who saw it from upstairs and found it strange. So he went to him, bowed twice, and offered him wine and dried meat. The old man knew that Changfang was a god and said to him, 'You may come again tomorrow.' The next day, Changfang went to see the old man again, and the old man took him into the pot. There he saw a magnificent jade hall, filled with fine wine and delicious food. They drank together and then came out."

There was a man named Fei Changfang who saw an old man selling medicine. After selling the medicine, the old man would go straight into his gourd. So Fei Changfang went to visit him, and the old man took him into the gourd as well. Once inside, he found that the gourd was no longer there, but an Immortal Palace with towering buildings and gates. The small gourd was like a grotto.

This Law Treasure is similar; once you enter, there is a pavilion inside, and then a gourd seven or eight zhang long that can hold several thousand people to go to the Liesu.

Li Shiwei waited in line obediently, and everyone around her was quiet. Everyone knew what they were going to do, and the cultivators were quite self-aware. There was no noise or commotion like in a market, after all, they still needed the gourd.

The distance from here to Liesu is at least several hundred thousand miles, which is a very, very long distance for these workers, whose highest rank is eighth. They simply cannot get across without this gourd.

Soon, it was Li Shiwei's turn in the line. Li Shiwei quickly stood still and waited for the Daoist priest to call her name.

"Are you Li Shiwei?"

"Yes!" the little brat replied.

But then she saw a suction force coming from the gourd's mouth, and she was involuntarily lifted into the air. In her view, the gourd suddenly grew larger and larger, and she was sucked directly into the gourd's mouth by the suction force.

Immediately afterwards, a bizarre and dazzling scene unfolded before her eyes, as if it were a passage made of countless rainbows and glass, through which she glided, unable to control her own body, feeling like she was bungee jumping.

The stone kept making a buzzing sound; clearly, he was terrified, and it was actually his scream.

Li Shiwei found it very exciting and couldn't help but cheer.

But this feeling only lasted for a dozen seconds. Suddenly, the scenery around her changed, and she found herself surrounded by an endless sky, falling from the sky.

She immediately steadied herself, made a hand Hand Seals, and cast a cloud-riding spell. The clouds in the surrounding sky were drawn down to her feet, stopping her fall.

After settling into place on the cloud, she immediately leaned out and looked down.

Below, there are thousands of pavilions, and many people are falling from the sky into them. Some, like Li Shiwei, have taken flight on their own, while others are panicked or calm, waiting for the pavilions below to light up and lift them up one by one.

It seems this is their 'cockpit'.

After descending, Li Shiwei found an empty attic and moved in. There was plenty of food and water there, and she could live there for decades without any problem.

Curious, she stepped out of the attic and wandered around the small city, taking in the sights.

There are no merchants or anything like that here; it's probably just a magical transport Law Treasure responsible for taking people to Liesu.

Besides Li Shiwei, there were also some migrant workers who were visiting for the first time, looking around the streets. They were just as curious as Li Shiwei. After all, for an eighth-rank official, this kind of world within a pot was too mysterious to them. Many people were trying to figure out how this world within a pot worked.

Li Shiwei was clearly one of them, and she didn't find it strange at all.

She was not proud of her identity, or rather, at only seventeen years old, she was not yet fully aware of the difference between herself and the people around her.

She just felt that everything was fair; she should do the same as everyone else, which was only natural.

This atmosphere and mindset are also the result of her upbringing at Xuanjing Mountain. At least to this day, the little brat doesn't think he's any superior or inferior to others. This humble yet confident and equal attitude is a benefit of her excellent upbringing.

After a while—

"Boss, stop looking. The runes here are all encrypted. You'll have to decipher them to see what's inside. With your usual skill level, breaking the encryption here is just a pipe dream." The stone vibrated and made a sound.

Li Shiwei lay on a rune chain exposed in a cave within a pot and studied it for a long time, but to no avail. Shi Tou couldn't help but speak up.

But Li Shiwei didn't think so. She looked away from it and said with dissatisfaction, "How do you know I can't figure it out? You're underestimating me, aren't you? Let me tell you, I've already learned something from it."

"Boss, my results are better than yours." Stone's voice vibrated as he spoke, "I've already looked at these runes. They're even harder than the test that True Lord Yang Ning gave you a few days ago. You didn't pass that test."

"If it didn't pass, it didn't pass. These two things are unrelated! I've already figured it out. Look, although this area is encrypted, it's actually clearly divided into Yin and Yang paths."

"There is clearly the essence of heaven and earth in this. Heaven and earth form images, and the cycle is clear. The cycle ends and begins again, like a continuous loop. This cycle is formed by the method of five, six, thirty, and rebirth. Although it cannot be broken for the time being, we can still see the general operation inside." Li Shiwei said, explaining her judgment on this rune.

Stone said, "If it were really as you say, then it couldn't be like this. The solar terms of a month can cycle through twelve times, and those twelve times are divided into twenty-four. The twenty-four solar terms are the fire season of a year. The twenty-four solar terms alternate and shift. How could there be a method of five, six, thirty and then rebirth? Boss, I suggest you stop thinking."

It's clear that the stone is also quite good at learning. Ever since it broke through its stone body, it has been hanging on Li Shiwei's waist, so it must have received the same education as her.

At least, when Li Qi's parents were teaching Li Shiwei, they never avoided mentioning it.

As the man and the jade were arguing about how this place was built, they suddenly heard a voice from behind them.

The voice said, "The first three and five, the last three and five, all the myriad phenomena and hexagrams are here. True lead is divided into two, changing yin and yang. Thus, there is heaven and earth in the pot. Heaven and earth are the parents, and Kan and Li are the husband and wife. Divide into three hundred and eighty-four hexagrams, following the timing of the fire. You two are not wrong, but you only got half right. Only by separating into three and five can two conclusions be established at the same time."

Upon hearing this, Li Shiwei turned her head to look in the direction of the voice.

There stood a young girl, who looked to be about the same age as Li Shiwei, but with a much quieter demeanor.
