A cat that lingers beside a saint

During his time at the Taoist temple, Su Bai witnessed what true genius was all about.

These four characters are clearly used to describe the golden crow on the Fusang tree.

In just a few days, Jinwu not only restored the solar power it had depleted, but also greatly improved its cultivation level.

In Su Bai's opinion, this was what he called cheating.

And his pendant was clearly this hibiscus tree.

In recent days, Su Bai had also thought about lying on this tree like the Golden Crow to absorb the power of the sun.

However, each time he absorbed too much, it caused a feeling of imbalance between yin and yang within his body.

Each time he absorbs too much solar energy, he needs to absorb a large amount of lunar essence to replenish it.

The Fusang tree originated from a branch of the ancient sun star, and the solar power contained within it can be used to nurture the Golden Crow.

This alone is enough to illustrate how terrifying this tree is.

Su Bai stood under the tree, looking at the golden crow on it, and couldn't help but feel a little envious.

This is practically a walking little sun.

Not only can he absorb the power of the sun at will, but he also doesn't need to go through the process of constantly refining and merging with the power of the moon to achieve a balance before it can be integrated into his body.

Su Bai sighed slightly, then jogged over to the old Taoist priest's side.

The old Taoist priest has been quite free these past few days. Wanlinghui has taken the initiative to take on some household chores, so he has plenty of time to relax in his rocking chair.

Jumping onto the old Taoist's stomach, Su Bai poked his head out and asked, "Master, an old man once told me that Yin and Yang coexist; where there is Yin, there is Yang, and where there is Yang, there is Yin."

The old Taoist nodded; the Supreme Being clearly understood this better than he did.

"There's the sun during the day and the moon at night. Since there's the Fusang tree, which embodies extreme yang, isn't there also something that embodies extreme yin?"

Yo?

The old Taoist looked at Su Bai with some surprise.

Has this cat suddenly become enlightened?

"Where is this extremely yin object?"

The old Taoist priest's lips curled up slightly: "This Fusang tree was manifested from the primordial power of the sun star at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth."

"What you see in front of you is just a branch; as for its original form, I'm afraid it's impossible to find."

"However, although the Sun Star is gone, the Moon Star is still here."

"There is a laurel tree on the Taiyin star. This tree was also manifested from the Taiyin origin at the beginning of the world."

Hearing this, Su Bai probably understood.

Since the Sun Star has the Fusang Tree, then the Moon Star must also have a corresponding Yin element.

If he could find a branch of a laurel tree and plant it in the yard, wouldn't Su Bai be able to cultivate whenever he wanted?

More importantly, planting these two plants in this Taoist temple can also add a touch of class.

In an old Taoist temple, there is a hibiscus tree and a laurel tree. If word gets out that this place isn't a blessed land, then that person must be out of their mind.

Thinking of this, Su Bai couldn't help but smile.

He walked out of the temple without making a sound.

Su Bai probably already knew where to find the laurel tree.

Just as he reached the door, he heard the old Taoist's voice behind him.

"Little one, where are you going again?"

The moment the sound came, Su Bai took off running, and the next second, he rushed into the mural outside the wall.

Inside the temple, the old Taoist priest seemed to have known Su Bai's thoughts all along.

He did not stop them.

In his view, this was only a matter of time.

Even if Su Bai himself didn't go, he would probably find an opportunity to get a laurel branch.

Now that Su Bai has chosen to go by himself, he feels that it has saved him a lot of trouble, at least he doesn't have to move his feet.

At this moment, Wan Ling carried the food out of the kitchen, and as soon as she stepped out, she saw Su Bai's figure flash by.

"Master, where is my senior brother going?"

"Where else could it go? Naturally, it went to the outside world."

Before long, the golden crow also flew down from the treetop.

He looked at the old Taoist priest with a puzzled expression: "What is the outside world?"

"It's a place you'll never be able to reach."

Wanling smiled and stepped forward, ignoring the sun's fire enveloping Jinwu, and gently patted his head.

Although Jinwu was indignant, he was helpless. This girl was the second person he had encountered who was not afraid of his sun's fire.

As for Su Bai...

Does that count as a person?

……

Stepping outside the wall, one is still enveloped in mist.

But for some reason, Su Bai vaguely sensed that the atmosphere between heaven and earth seemed somewhat heavy.

According to my master, this should be called the turbid qi rising and the clear qi sinking, which is a reversal of yin and yang, and is a very ominous sign.

But upon closer reflection, this is the Heavenly Court, so how could there be any ominous signs here?

Su Bai moved very carefully, afraid that he would be encountered by some immortal or god again, just like last time.

After all, it's not always possible to be so lucky as to encounter Nezha.

Once we left the walkway, the fog wasn't as thick as before, and the heavy feeling disappeared.

Just like last time, the Heavenly Court was still a harmonious scene, with fairies still flying around in the sky.

Su Bai came out this time intending to find the location of the Moon Palace.

According to his memory of mythology, the only place in the heavenly court with a laurel tree is the Moon Palace.

If you're lucky, you might even get a sneak peek at the legendary Chang'e.

Because Su Bai's size was small enough, and most of the immortals and gods flew, very few people would be as observant as Nezha to notice Su Bai's presence.

In fact, even if some immortals or gods did notice Su Bai's presence, they wouldn't interfere.

After all, cats are not the only animals in the Heavenly Court.

With this layer of invisible protection, Su Bai's journey through the Heavenly Court became much smoother.

Unfortunately, he wasn't very familiar with the Heavenly Court, so finding the location of the Moon Palace was extremely difficult for him.

As I was walking, a voice suddenly came from behind me.

"Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, I, Old Pig, was once Marshal Tianpeng, commanding 100,000 celestial river soldiers. What do you mean by blocking my way like this?"

"Marshal Tianpeng, it's not that I want to stop you, but His Majesty asked me to pass on a message to you."

Upon hearing the sound, Su Bai's eyes lit up slightly, and he curiously walked towards the direction from which the sound came.

A large-bellied man with a pig's head and a human body, holding a nine-toothed rake, was confronting Nezha's father, Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

"His Majesty said that Marshal Tianpeng is now a monk. Since he is a monk, he cannot have any more frivolous thoughts. Otherwise, wouldn't this journey to the Western Paradise have been in vain?"

"I'll let him go..." Pigsy had barely opened his mouth when he involuntarily covered his mouth with his hand.

After a moment, Pigsy took a deep breath and said, "Today is the fifteenth of August, the perfect time for moon gazing."

"What's wrong? Can't monks appreciate the moon?"

"What business is it of yours if monks are appreciating the moon?"
