After the autumn harvest officially ended came the celebrations, which lasted all the way until the Beginning of Winter.
Throughout that time, this cave-heaven reserved for celebrations served up every kind of food in an endless feast, while Gold Core and Nascent Soul True Persons sat atop the clouds and expounded the Dao.
This was the grandest celebration of the Four Seasons Sect.
So the scene was truly lively.
At one point, it became so lively that Li Ye felt dazed and afraid—when he looked up, fellow disciples attending the celebration filled the skies and the earth in every direction.

He had never imagined cultivators could be this noisy.
He reckoned that if someone threw a brick here, they could hit seven or eight Gold Core True Persons, perhaps even a Nascent Soul True Person.

He took a deep breath and focused on listening to the True Persons expound the Dao.

Time slipped by in a flash.

Even now, the lingering fear remained in his heart.
He had thought cultivators liked to stay alone
