Upon returning to the sect, Shen Ge immediately went to Su Liuyue's cave abode to see her.

Before he could even speak after entering the room, Su Liuyue, who had only glanced at him, suddenly exclaimed with a grave expression, "Your sea of consciousness has been broken? What happened?!"

Faced with Su Liuyue's question, Shen Ge scratched his head and said, "I was tricked this time and almost didn't make it back, but luckily I'm very fortunate and only suffered minor injuries."

Su Liuyue was almost laughing in anger. Such a serious problem as the sea of consciousness being broken was just a minor injury?

"Tell me, what exactly happened? How did it break?" Su Liuyue asked coldly, though a closer listener would notice she was suppressing her anger.

Shen Ge naturally sensed the anger in his voice. He had come to find a solution, not to get beaten up, so he quickly recounted everything that had happened to him these past few days, including the fact that he had obtained the Life and Death Instruction.

After listening to Shen Ge's description, Su Liuyue remained silent for a long time. All of this was caused by that Star Stone. Shen Ge's transformation made her feel guilty because that Star Stone had become a high-grade Law Treasure, the Morning Star Sword, in her hands.

The atmosphere remained tense for a while before Shen Ge broke the silence, asking, "Sister, how can we resolve this problem with the sea of consciousness?"

Hearing Shen Ge's voice Su Liuyue came back to her senses.

Yes, that's right. Now that it's already happened, the focus should be on how to treat it. After pondering for a while, she said, "This is a bit difficult. Let me think of a way. You should go back and rest well."

"That little guy is with Mu Wan. Go pick him up when you have time." With that, Su Liuyue got up and hurriedly walked out, ending the conversation.

Looking at Su Liuyue, who had already disappeared, Shen Ge suddenly said dejectedly, "It seems this matter is really difficult to handle. I don't know if it can be resolved."

After saying that, Shen Ge left the cave abode and flew towards the direction of Mu Wan's cave abode.

Meanwhile, Su Liuyue arrived at the sect's main hall and met with Sect Leader Ziyang. Upon entering, she forgot to bow and immediately asked, "Sect Leader, how should we repair the damaged Sea of Knowledge?"

"Damaged sea of consciousness?" Ziyang was slightly taken aback, then he suddenly asked seriously, "Is Shen Ge in trouble?"

Su Liuyue did not hide anything and told Ziyang about Shen Ge's situation directly.

"Sect Leader, Shen Ge's sea of consciousness is severely damaged. Do you have any good solutions?"

After pondering for a while, Ziyang finally spoke softly, "The sea of consciousness is the second foundation of a person's cultivation, its importance far exceeding imagination, and repairing a damaged sea of consciousness is by no means an easy task."

"Our Spirit Moon Sect's ancient texts record some methods, one of which is to use a fifth-grade pill, the Spirit Transformation Pill. However, this Spirit Transformation Pill is also a key pill for breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Stage. Nowadays, the entire Southern Barbarian Lands can't even find enough fifth-grade Alchemist, let alone all the necessary materials."

"Is there any other way?" Su Liuyue asked anxiously, her face showing a hint of worry.

Ziyang sighed and said, "Another option is to find someone with the exact same birth date and time and the same Spirit Root attribute as him, and then use Secret Method to share a sea of consciousness. That person's complete sea of consciousness can then gradually repair Shen Ge's damaged sea of consciousness. However, finding such a perfect match is practically impossible. It's even more likely than finding Spirit Transformation Pill, since such a thing might still exist in some ancient secret realm."

"We can't completely repair Shen Ge's sea of consciousness right now, but I have a way to alleviate his injuries. After that, he should be able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Peak. As for breaking through to the Golden Core stage, that's impossible."

"Liuyue understand, thank you for your explanation, Sect Leader." Su Liuyue bowed and then turned and left without lingering.

Watching Su Liuyue's disappearing figure, Ziyang remained silent for a long time before sighing, "Alas, Heaven is not kind to our Spirit Moon Sect. First, Qin Yu had an accident, and now Shen Ge is crippled. Why is it so difficult for people with Supreme-Grade Spirit Root to truly cultivate after joining our Spirit Moon Sect?"

On the other side, Shen Ge arrived at Mu Wan's cave abode and immediately saw two figures, one big and one small, playing and frolicking. He coughed and stepped forward, saying, "What are you playing? You're laughing so happily. Can I join in?"

Upon seeing Shen Ge, Su Sui immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at him. Mu Wan then swiftly approached Shen Ge Shen Ge, before he could react, performed a backflip and kicked him in the chin. The force of the kick was so great that it almost sent Shen Ge tumbling off the mountaintop.

After rolling a few times upon landing, Shen Ge rubbed his aching chin. Just as he was about to stand up, a pair of white boots appeared before him. Sensing something was wrong, Shen Ge decided not to get up. Instead, he rolled over and looked up at Mu Wan, asking, "Tell me, why did you suddenly attack me so ruthlessly? If you can't give me a proper explanation today, this matter won't be over without three thousand Spirit Stone."

Mu Wan slowly squatted down and stared at Shen Ge, her eyes filled with anger, but even more so with shame and rage. "Don't you know what you usually say to Su Su?"

Seeing Mu Wan's expression, Shen Ge asked in confusion, "What did I say?"

"Very well, still pretending to be innocent, huh?" Mu Wan raised her hand and poked Shen Ge's cheek, saying, "Didn't you tell Su Su that I'm your dao companion? So, dao companion ' playful fights are a sign of affection, so you don't mind me hitting you today, right?"

After saying that, Mu Wan's fists rained down like raindrops, each one carrying a faint layer of firelight. Although she didn't use her full strength, it was still quite heavy.

Shen Ge quickly braced himself and used his hands to defend himself. After taking a few punches, he couldn't take it anymore and quickly rolled to the side to dodge the attack before getting up.

At this moment, Shen Ge's left cheek was somewhat dark, a result of the fire from Mu Wan's fist, making him look rather disheveled.

Seeing that Mu Wan was still planning to make a move, Shen Ge quickly said, "Stop! I didn't say that. Su Su misunderstood. I swear on my integrity, I really didn't say such shameless things."

"Is that so?" Mu Wan sneered, clearly somewhat disbelieving, but she didn't make another move. The few solid punches she had just landed had already calmed her down considerably.

Seeing that Mu Wan wasn't enough, Shen Ge immediately yelled at Su Sui, "Su Su, come here and explain yourself, or you won't get any food for ten days!"

"Tell me, which sentence of mine expressed any interest in her, and when did I say she was my dao companion? With her childlike personality, do you really think I would have any feelings for her?!"

"Shen Ge, you're asking for it!" Mu Wan roared and launched a flying kick, and the two started fighting again.

Watching this scene from a distance, Su Sui pursed her lips guiltily. "Still denying it? Didn't you say that hitting is a sign of affection and scolding is a sign of love? Look how fiercely you two are fighting, and how awful your insults are."
