Ji An said gently, "This humble Daoist comes from a remote planet in the Starfield and knows few people on Ziwei Star, so there is no need to hold a celebration.
In a few days, when Fellow Daoist Yun Miao returns, this humble Daoist will prepare some humble wine at my cave abode and invite a few friends for a small gathering."
Thanks to the benefits brought by the Stone Turtle, he lacked neither pills nor spirit fruits to raise his cultivation. His spells were exceptionally powerful, and he had to create his own cultivation arts. Thus, he could cultivate peacefully without maintaining close ties with the outside world.
He only needed a few friends of the same level with whom he could exchange ideas and sharpen his thoughts. That was why he maintained contact with them.
Que Yue Sanren's eyes revealed admiration as he sighed.
"Fellow Daoist cultivates with such diligence that it puts far too many people to shame."
He himself had once been just as diligent, but as his cultivation rose, his progress grew increasingly slow, and he no longer pressed himself so hard in cultivation.
Sometimes, upon encountering a bottleneck, one could spend centuries without the slightest progress. Nothing wore away one's edge more than that.
When anyone saw their long years of effort yield not the slightest return, their striving heart would slowly grow old.
Ji An smiled politely and changed the subject.
"This humble Daoist next intends to raise the grades of the Green Lotus Treasure Color Banner and the Plain Cloud World Banner. I trouble Fellow Daoist to make a list and prepare the materials. In the future, this humble Daoist will exchange fifth-tier mid-grade spirit fruits and spirit wine for them.
The Seven Luminaries Golden Branch I planted has borne fruit again.
