Pan Si Cave Mansion, Master Tao Da looked at a record in his mind, thoughts surfacing in his heart: This time, I'm afraid washing myself clean in the Penglai Sea won't be enough.
He looked at Aunt Pan Si, her face flushed and revealing her true form, burrowing deeper into the silver thread paths, and Tao Qian opened his mouth, at a loss for words.
He couldn't very well say, "Aunt, you've misunderstood, it's just that I have been overindulging these past few days, indulging in the pleasures of Yin and Yang every night, accidentally condensing the Ultimate Happiness Source Qi, which will cause anyone who has high regard for me to mistakenly believe I'm seeking pleasure."
The truth was indeed thus, but he couldn't say so, otherwise Aunt Pan Si would only feel more embarrassed and angry.
"It's a good thing I didn't bring Master Yuan along, or this title of Daoist Peach Blossom would likely stick to me forever."
"What a mistake, what a mistake, these past few days have truly been ludicrous."
Tao Qian rarely introspected and sighed with shame repeatedly.
He had already examined that Source Qi by now, indeed it was both mysterious and absurd.
The root cause was Grandma Taizhen's ever-changing, fantasy-fulfilling Secret Technique of Divine Communication.
Once using that method, it was inevitable to get tainted by the Source Qi.
On the first night, there was already a record that gave a warning.
However, at that time, Tao Qian only saw the detail "all fantasies come true", combined with the scene before him—Sister Yunrong in a wedding dress, half kitten and half human—his blood surged, desire filled his Heart Soul, so he didn't look further and flipped onto her, attempting to be a mighty cat-loving man.
Who would have thought it would cause him to make a fool of himself in front of Aunt Pan Si.
Understanding the causes and consequences, Tao Qian initially intended to turn around and return to Ascending Immortal Island, thinking of a way to eliminate the "Desire Origin Qi" from his body, and then come back to apologize to Aunt.
But just at that moment, looking at Aunt Pan Si's half-human, half-spider form, along with the unstable Qi sensed, he suddenly remembered another very urgent matter.
"If I remember correctly, Aunt Pan Si is also facing a deadly ordeal."
"A long time ago, I came here once and, with the help of the Spirit Pearl given by Aunt, accidentally glimpsed her state."
"She is deeply entrenched in mutation due to reading too many transcendent tomes, and to survive, she had to use [Spiritual Shedding Technique], sinking deeper and deeper, with only a century of life left now."
"At that time, my cultivation was weak, and I was entangled with other matters, unable to plan and think of a rescue method for Aunt."
"I originally thought that Aunt's identity was not low, and the Sect should step in to help."
"However, it seems that I was mistaken."
"Cultivation has many costs, it should be resolved by oneself, the Sect cannot help with everything. Moreover, with Aunt Pan Si's personality, not interacting with others, staying inside the cave mansion without showing her face, perhaps other uncles and aunts are not even aware of her life-threatening danger, and she wouldn't seek help either."
With this thought, Tao Qian immediately turned back. Content orıginally comes from 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩
He is one to always repay favours, and Aunt Pan Si helped him a lot and has such a good nature.
Now knowing this, how could he not lend a hand?
Before, if he had thoughts , it would have been considered audacious, as one should know that Pan Si Immortal herself has read a large number of extraordinary tomes, and her cultivation was not low. If there was a solution, she would be the first to know.
But now, Tao Qian had some qualification.
Perfect Realm of Ultimate Happiness, Great Master cultivating Three Meridians.
Calculating it, his Dao Heng, as a younger generation nephew, was actually a whole great level higher than Pan Si Immortal.
Of course, this is rare but not an isolated case.
Spirit Treasure Sect elders are truly abundant, their cultivation spans from the Cavernous Mystery to Ultimate Happiness.
And like Xuu Xun, Yang Jie, these true disciples, in the coming years, their Dao Heng is likely to surpass many ordinary elders.
"Since I've run into it, I might as well check to see if I can resolve Aunt's deadly ordeal."
Once this thought emerged, Tao Qian took action.
He took out the [Pan Si Spirit Pearl] that Aunt had given him before, intending to communicate from afar.
Unexpectedly, the Spirit Pearl was unresponsive, having been unidirectionally blocked by Aunt Pan Si.
Tao Qian's face stiffened, immediately realizing that failing to explain clearly was simply not an option, otherwise, after today, Aunt Pan Si might regard him as a day-time gallant rogue seeking pleasure.
After thinking for a moment, he guessed where Aunt might be, following the Qi to search.
Besides the guest reception palaces, the territories of Pan Si Cave Mansion were covered by countless silver threads, sticky and forming thousands of intricate labyrinthine caves.
Aunt, after all, was well-read in tomes and had set up many Forbidden Technique traps that ordinary people wouldn't be able to find her, and even entering here alive would be tough.
However, Tao Qian having come once before, plus for some unknown reason, none of the barricades and traps were triggering on him along the way.
Even the many Spirit Spiders he encountered, big and small, instead of attacking him, respectfully saluted him.
Some with spiritual intelligence, capable of human speech, even directly called him "Ascending Immortal Island Master."
They peered at him, whispering among themselves.
Before long, Tao Qian successfully entered this island's Star Membrane Secret Technique acupoint.
In the next moment, his eyes suddenly reflected a wondrous scene:
In the world within the Secret Technique, this time there weren't millions of Spirit Spiders mating and proliferating, only a vast, extraordinarily soft and crystal-clear silver thread spider web.
On that web, a half-human, half-spider woman was trapped in her own fantasies and emotions, unable to extricate herself.
This woman had the upper half dressed in long-sleeved silk clothing, like a well-read and yet eerily cold and innocent girl from a deep chamber, but the lower half was a plump, voluptuous spider abdomen full of fluffy white fur.
She would sometimes blush shyly rolling back and forth on the web, and at other times stand up and walk back and forth, muttering to herself:
"Impossible, impossible, there must be some mistake, the younger generation nephew is not such a person. How could he seek me for pleasure in broad daylight? It's truly too embarrassing."
"Even if he did figure out some of my intentions, he should be more modest about it."
"He must have guessed some, right? I invited him to witness the reproduction ceremony, and he invited me to eat the Immortal Peach."
