Was Little Li Treating Her Like Some Fool?

It rained all night last night, but now the clouds have parted and the rain has stopped. Little Li still couldn't figure out what had happened, even after he had put breakfast on the table.

To be honest, he only had a vague understanding of what the Inner Scene was.

"The Ruyi Golden-Banded Staff) stopped the collapse of the Small World."

"Moreover, this object is extraordinary. It's the first time I've seen a weapon that Hammer Treasure dares not approach. It's undoubtedly a great treasure..."

"So, we can first rule out the possibility that it's because the Monkey Brother is petty and has his eye on the monkey stealing the peaches..."

Li Mo slurped his noodles while deep in thought.

Overall, this might be a good thing for him.

The problem is... Monkey Brother left in a hurry and didn't tell him what the benefits were.

He had never even been exposed to Inner Scene, and his knowledge in this area was completely blank...

Seeing that he didn't show any joy after breaking through his cultivation level, but instead kept muttering to himself, Ying Bing guessed that he had encountered a problem with his cultivation level.

But Teacher Ice Block quietly tied up her hair and ate her noodles, letting him think for a while first.

Your realm of cultivation is your own, your martial arts path is your own; you can't just give up every time you encounter a problem...

"I know! How could I be so confused..."

Li Mo abruptly wiped his mouth and then spoke.

"What do you know?" A faint smile appeared on Ying Bing's lips.

She figured it out faster than she expected.

"Why don't you just ask Ice Block? Why am I wasting my brain cells thinking like this?"

Little Li is primarily someone who listens to advice.

"... What do you want to ask?"

"Ice Block, take a look at my baby first."

"?"

A hint of wariness flickered in Ying Bing Ice Mirror Eyes.

The Divine Hammer Little Overlord, Wife-Prospering Fighting Soul —besides his hammer and Ice Block, what other treasures could he possess?

But Little Li's eyes were full of curiosity; if he were talking about Hammer Treasure, he probably wouldn't dare look her in the eye right now.

So Ice Block nodded slightly.

Before the word "good" could even land, Li Mo took her hand. Both of them were now at the Nine Apertures of Divine Observation, so there was no need for Ice Block to suppress their cultivation levels.

In fact, Li Mo had long wanted to take Ice Block to see the Small World.

Compared to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, compared to the Clear Abyss Sect, that was the world that truly belonged to him.

Secondly, cough...

Sooner or later, Ice Block will find out about his pretending to be the Heavenly Venerable teaching Little Jiang.

It's just that the Small World was too small before, when it was just World Seed. Later, when it grew a bit bigger, there was never any opportunity.

The sky in the Small World is synchronized with the outside world.

At that moment, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle, the sun was high in the sky, and the mountains and rivers were beautiful.

Of course, the most real things are still the sun and the moon at night; everything else is just an illusion.

Standing in this Small World for the first time.

"Wow, this place is huge, but it's not perfect yet."

Ying Bing's eyes reflected the beautiful scenery, her gaze shifting gently.

"Um?"

Li Mo did not see the reaction he expected.

The World Seed is rare enough, isn't it? But Ice Block was much calmer than he had imagined.

"Don't you have anything to say?"

"Yes, it's beautiful."

Ying Bing looked up at him, her eyes filled with amusement.

Did Li Mo take her for some kind of fool?

She had long known that he possessed an Inner World or grotto-heaven similar to the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm, and that he had used it to completely intimidate the people of the Demon Summoning Cult.

And he's even teaching Little Jiang swordsmanship here.

Otherwise, how could Little Jiang know the martial arts techniques she created, which are unique in the world?

This place is indeed different from the cave world formed within the body of Dharma Body Realm cultivator, and has some unique features, but in every aspect it is far inferior to the many wonders within her body in her previous life.

Since Li Mo didn't say anything, she didn't ask.

Everyone has their own little secrets.

Where's my darling?

"Promise."

Li Mo came to his senses, comforted the trembling Hammer Treasure, and pointed to the 'fire poker' stuck in the ground not far away.

"Yesterday I defeated a projection of Divine Intent, but I almost shattered the Small World, and then he just left this here."

He gave a brief account of what had happened.

"Divine Intent projections rarely possess consciousness..."

Ying Bing paused beside the fire poker, her delicate brows furrowed, and looked around.

Suddenly turning around, she grabbed Li Mo's nose with her delicate hand and asked somewhat seriously:

"Were you just trying to Will Soul to connect the inner and outer worlds and release this cave?"

"Dei..."

"Fool."

Ying Bing pinched his nose, as if he were surrounded by a cool and sacred halo.

Li Mo felt like Big-Headed Doll that had been poked but had no temper.

"What's wrong?" Li Mo's voice was very nasal.

"The fusion of inner and outer worlds is something that can only be attempted in the Fifth Realm."

Ying Bing didn't let go. Seeing the confusion in his eyes, and remembering who his master was, she said helplessly:

"The so-called 'External Scene Realm' is to project the scenery in one's heart into the real world, making it indistinguishable from reality, and even influencing heaven and earth."

"The more complex the scene in one's mind, the more difficult it is to transform it into Inner Scene or even External Scene Realm. For example, an egg is simpler than a living hen."

"Because you need to ensure that your 'scenery' is realistic enough so that it won't be destroyed by the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

"And you, you actually want to bring an entire world to life? Is your world 'real' enough?"

Li Mo seemed to understand, but not quite.

In his Small World, nothing was more real than the moon at night.

Everything else can be categorized as special effects.

As a 'world', compared to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, it seems as unrealistic as a dream.

Teacher Ice Block continued to give him extra lessons:

"Between heaven and earth, there exist countless tides, such as the Power of All Living Beings, such as primordial energy, various creatures, different 'Dao'. Some can be seen, some can be heard, some can be touched, and some cannot be perceived, yet they truly exist in the Unseen."

"They are all closely connected and coordinate with each other, like a sophisticated mechanism. If too many are missing, it will cause drastic changes, just like the sun that we saw in the Jade Phoenix God."

"The Inner Scene, on the other hand, is a landscape of the outward projection of the Will Soul, a process of gradually adapting it to the laws governing the universe and integrating it into it."

As Li Mo listened to Ice Block's insightful words, he seemed to understand.

The Inner Scene involves observing and recreating the mechanisms and components within the vast machine of heaven and earth.

The External Scene Realm involves putting those parts in and making them run smoothly; if they run seamlessly, it's considered a success. If someone is exceptionally talented, they can even make the machine run even more smoothly.

His Small World wasn't even half-finished.

From the perspective of heaven and earth, it would be an 'exotic object' that could be crushed at any moment.

It's like running a program that can self-correct.

"If it weren't for the Golden Cudgel, the Small World might have truly vanished just now..."

Li Mo was drenched in sweat; it seemed like something terrible had just happened.

"The being that left this object here is telling you when it will no longer be needed to suppress you, and when your grotto-heaven can connect with the outside world."

Seeing the seriousness in her expression, Li Mo clearly breathed a sigh of relief, only then realizing how foolish his brilliant idea had been.

"Then what should we do?"

"Let it become more and more perfect, closer to reality; now, apart from the sun, nothing else counts."

"No, that's not it."

Li Mo stared at her intently.

"..."

Ying Bing's fingertips curled slightly, and the cold, holy halo visibly swayed.

"I... I want to go back..."

"This place isn't entirely useless; at least we can watch a movie here. Ice Block, shall we watch a movie?"

Learning phase √.

It's time to balance work and rest!

"What are you looking at?"

"The Overbearing Empress Falls in Love With Me."
