You'd better keep your promise to me.
Wan Chongshan looked at Li Xingkong, seemingly wanting to see his conflicted expression.
"That's natural, but these things ultimately require Xiao Chongshan's own consent."
Li Xingkong certainly had no problem with it, but Xiao Chongshan was also an independent individual, a living, breathing person, and Li Xingkong couldn't make decisions for her.
"Hmph, I'll let her go, and she'll naturally go."
Wan Chongshan acted like a parent, leaving no room for Xiao Chongshan to refuse.
This was the first time Li Xingkong had ever met someone like this. Nobody cared about his past self; he treated him like a tiger parent. Tsk.
However, this is their own family matter, and Li Xingkong shouldn't interfere.
"Old woman..."
Xiao Chongshan was clearly not so happy. It wasn't that she didn't want to get along with Li Xingkong, but rather that she felt very uncomfortable being forced to do things her way.
After glaring fiercely at Wan Chongshan a few times, Xiao Chongshan turned and walked away. As he passed by Li Xingkong, he gritted his teeth and said something.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go, I don't want to see this guy again."
Having said that, he vanished from the space in a flash.
" Senior Wan, then I shall take my leave."
Li Xingkong quickly greeted them and followed. After all, he had promised Wan Chongshan, and he had to keep his word.
Watching the two figures disappear one after the other into the distance, Liu Shinian was not in a hurry to go back.
" Sister Wan, wow, I never expected this..."
Liu Shinian shook his head, looking as if he had seen something extraordinary.
"Didn't expect anything?"
Wan Chongshan breathed a sigh of relief as the two figures disappeared. In front of them, he always unconsciously adopted the attitude of someone who had been there before, which was really not like his usual style.
"I thought my sister was keeping a mistress, but it turns out she was arranging blind dates for her own son..."
Liu Shinian, however, saw through Wan Chongshan's thoughts; she wanted to bring Li Xingkong and Xiao Chongshan together.
"You know nothing! All you do all day is gossip. Why don't you go and cultivate yourself instead?"
Wan Chongshan seemed to have been touched on a sore spot, and with a flick of his finger, he threw Liu Shinian, who was still wanting to watch the drama unfold, out of the room.
She was left alone in the space, and Wan Chongshan's eyes were blank for a few seconds.
She doesn't belong to this era. Li Xingkong of this era should belong to her in this era, even though she might not have that thought now.
However, if we can't see each other more often now...
Wan Chongshan sighed unconsciously, and then disappeared into the layers of space.
Li Xingkong and the other two returned to the small world almost one after the other. They didn't say much along the way, except for Liu Shinian, who was curiously looking at the newly appeared character in front of him.
She had never met Xiao Chongshan before, and only regarded him as a junior of Wan Chongshan. In her opinion, this guy was very aloof and didn't say much along the way.
It's hard to imagine that someone with this kind of personality would know Li Xingkong.
The three of them, now back in the small world, stopped at Li Xingkong's residence.
"Now that I'm back in this small world, I'll continue my secluded cultivation. Don't bother me unless it's absolutely necessary."
Xiao Chongshan said coldly.
"That won't do. Senior Wan said I have to be by your side, or at least within your sight, otherwise I'm afraid she'll beat me up."
Li Xingkong was quite honest. Although Wan Chongshan hadn't come, he was probably watching from somewhere, and he didn't want to test Wan Chongshan's methods.
"What a nuisance, that old woman is such a busybody."
Xiao Chongshan muttered a few words.
"Then let's find an open location, one that ensures we're within sight."
As for going into seclusion with Li Xingkong? She wasn't used to it.
"Alright."
Li Xingkong was naturally more than happy with this arrangement; it was fine as it wouldn't affect his seclusion.
"Seclusion, seclusion, seclusion every day. If you're all in seclusion, I'll be in seclusion too."
Liu Shinian felt a little helpless.
These two guys might seem like an odd couple in other respects, but they're quite compatible when it comes to cultivation.
"Perfect, let's cultivate together then."
Li Xingkong used his power of creation to observe the area and selected three points within the small world, just enough for the three of them to cultivate.
After making his selection, Li Xingkong went straight to a spot, settled down, and began his research.
"I'm going too!"
Xiao Chongshan left a sentence and then landed at another coordinate.
"Madmen, they're all madmen!"
Liu Shinian shook his head and slowly walked towards the third location. These guys really don't care about anything else when it comes to cultivation.
Regardless of the cultivation levels of the other two, Li Xingkong immediately began experimenting with the path to Immortal Seat.
Observing the Immortal Seat is difficult; finding a way to move Immortal Seat is even more challenging.
The Immortal Seat is like a fixed anchor point in reality. No matter what Li Xingkong does, its position remains firmly fixed in that place, and it seems that no amount of means can affect the position of the Immortal Seat.
After nearly 1,000 years of research, nothing was found.
However, Li Xingkong was not discouraged.
The rank of Immortal Seat is too high, clearly beyond Li Xingkong's current reach. Detecting higher beings with low-level methods is inherently a very difficult task.
Just as before becoming an immortal, Li Xingkong, in his Nascent Soul form, could not influence an immortal who was in the information state, there was a fundamental difference, an insurmountable chasm.
This research is destined to take a long time, and Li Xingkong has made ample preparations.
If a thousand years doesn't work, ten thousand; if ten thousand years doesn't work, a hundred thousand. He can wait.
After 10,000 years of seclusion, Li Xingkong was finally able to make his Immortal Seat tremble a couple of times. After 20,000 years, his Immortal Seat seemed to have grown legs and could move slowly.
After nearly 50,000 years of seclusion, Li Xingkong was finally able to control the movement of other people's Immortal Seat.
To spend so much time just to make the Immortal Seat movable is something that is hard for ordinary cultivators to understand, and all of this seems to be meaningless.
But for Li Xingkong, it was different; it meant that his idea was only one step away from being realized.
Find enough cultivators, then have them follow your orders, and adjust their Immortal Seat to create art using those Immortal Seat.
As for where these enough cultivators will come from...
Li Xingkong looked in a certain direction.
He never imagined that Thousand Mountains Body could play such a role at this crucial juncture.
With a flick of his wrist, Li Xingkong summoned a sufficient number of Thousand Mountains Body, and then distributed all the conceptual pillars he had obtained, allowing them to begin their cultivation.
He was hesitant to seek help from other cultivators, but if it was all his own Thousand Mountains Body, then there would be no problem.
The Thousand Mountains Body began their cultivation to become immortals, but Li Xingkong's gaze was fixed on the location of the Wan Chongshan.
When she revealed her "Thousand Mountains Body" back then, did she ever imagine this day would come?
Li Xingkong didn't know.
