Many places that had seemed incomprehensible gradually became clear through Xu Yi's tireless experimentation.
At last, in the latter half, he hit a wall. With no other choice, Xu Yi manifested the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Aspect. This aspect was immense, and the cost of revealing it was considerable. His earlier experiments had gone smoothly, so he had refrained from manifesting it until now.
Now that he had encountered a difficult problem, he had no choice but to bring out this aspect. As expected, the more grandiose the aspect, the better suited it was to this treatise.
Xu Yi's research had gone exceptionally smoothly. He had thought it would continue that way, but without the complete cultivation art, it was impossible to reconstruct it from the insights alone.
Xu Yi labored over it for three days and nights, but finally gave up. He kept feeling that he was just one step away from a breakthrough, yet he always got stuck at the crucial point and could make no further progress.
The timeline in his mind was pressing. He knew that tomorrow was the day of the agreed battle at Sun Peak. If he kept researching, he would only wear himself out completely.
In the end, he set aside his research and managed to sleep for two hours before leaving his cave abode. He had already noticed that Yu Zixuan and Yi Bingwei had arrived at Empty Island with Qiu Wa.
Sure enough, as soon as he opened the cave abode, he saw Yi Bingwei standing quietly before the peonies. She stared at him in a daze, her stunning beauty outshining even the flowers.
Thinking of how she was Xuan Lengyan, the beloved he had longed for all this time, Xu Yi couldn't help smiling as he slowly walked toward her.
