Reborn As A Blade Of Grass, I Become The Companion Of A Goddess - Chapter 22

With extensive roots and a vibrant leaf, the blade of grass emitted specks of light from the runic marks carved onto it.

The meridians throughout Ye Yun’s body were being gently and slowly enhanced by energy, expanding as they turned into endless streams.

As such, the impurities within his meridians and roots deep in the soil had been cleaned up, which fed back into the tempering cycle of his meridians.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully stepping into the Meridian Transformation phase of Growth. You have obtained three Influence points. The host’s current Influence is 18. Keep up the good work, dear host.]

Shi Hao had been cultivating next to Ye Yun and started to feel a slight tremble in the soil.

‘What was going on?’ Shi Hao was about to investigate but the tremors stopped as quickly as they started,

The frequency of the tremor caused by Ye Yun’s Meridian Transformation phase was not strong before things returned to normal again. That was the reason only Shi Hao caught it.

Shi Hao shook off the confusion in his head, abandoned all distracting thoughts, and resumed cultivation.

It might not have been much to Shi Hao, but the cause of the tremor was a big deal for Ye Yun.

Meridians were the foundation of cultivation. Now that he had entered the Meridian Transformation phase, his cultivation would be able to reach higher levels.

Ye Yun continued to absorb the spiritual Qi from his surroundings, allowing it to surge into his body like waves from a vast ocean washing through his meridians.

If this continued, he would soon be able to temper his body to become indestructible.

Everything that he had accumulated through cultivation in the Energy Storage phase of Growth was to establish the foundation for expanding his meridians in the Meridian Transformation phase.

Now that he had entered the Meridian Transformation phase, Ye Yun continued his cultivation.

——

Night came, and so did the torrential rain that dissipated the scorching heat of the day. The temperature started to drop and the cold settled in.

Ye Yun stopped his cultivation and stared at the rain, sinking deep into his thoughts.

Transmigrating to this world and having to cultivate were probably one of the best things that could happen to him. He did not have to worry or race towards the immaterial and insignificant things from his previous world.

If one ignored that he was just a blade of grass, he could be said to be the most carefree existence in the world.

No one knew of his existence; he was proficient in the Art of Nine Revolutions Essence; and his body had become almost indestructible. Once he cultivated to the point where he could have a soul avatar to move about his physical body, he would be able to walk freely in the world.

But this did not mean that Ye Yun was an ambitious person. He had never thought of being invincible. He just wanted to be a normal person.

After all, he could not come here for nothing. He wanted to take in the scenery here; admire nature’s handiwork; climb the mountains and swim the rivers; watch the transitions of the four seasons; and daydream while looking at the clouds in the sky.

If he was able to make some friends, he would want to gather with them for a drink and a good laugh. Maybe even meet a girl.

He started to wish for many beautiful things as the rain fell from the sky.

Anyone who had reached the peak of their cultivation would receive the privilege to travel the world here. And Ye Yun wanted to be that person.

With this in mind, Ye Yun spread out his Divine Sense and it started to vibrate as he fell into a meditative state.

For now, this was how he would ‘travel’ around. Through his Divine Sense, he saw people walking in the pouring rain; people laughing under the eaves; people leaning against the window; and people dozing off to the sound of the rain.

The world was vast and boundless. Thousands of living beings breathed and walked the land; thousands of lights were shining, but none of them were bright enough for him.

Was his current state a form of karma? What had he done to deserve this?

As he continued to fall deeper into his thoughts, Ye Yun did not notice that the Art of Nine Revolutions Essence could and was able to temper not only his body but also his soul.

Eventually, the Art of Nine Revolutions Essence had helped him begin the refinement of his soul.

He wasn’t sure how long he had been meditating but he could tell that he had made a breakthrough and that his soul was being refined.

While the rhythmic drops of rain brought a peaceful relief, it was also the calm before the storm.

The darkness of the night and heavy rain obscured the movements of a group of people.

The Great Wastelands was not only a vast expanse of land but was also mountainous and interrupted by forests. With the added factor of the presence of desolate beasts, travel was never easy or safe through these terrains, which was why the various tribes of this place were usually isolated from each other.

This was also why the representatives of the various tribes had gathered in Wolf Village, awaiting the return of Lang Ji after he made his last stop in Sand Eagle Tribe.

When Lang Ji arrived, everyone looked up at him expectantly and peered behind him. Lang Ji was supposed to bring the Divine Eagle, Sand Eagle Tribe’s guardian spirit, back with him.

The Divine Eagle could move as fast as lightning. As such, it had been deemed as the main force of their attack on Stone Village later.

Moreover, the Divine Eagle was good at observing the situation from above and could alert them of any incoming attacks from Stone Village’s ancestral artifacts.

However, there was nothing behind Lang Ji. The leaders were confused. Could it be that the leader of Sand Eagle Tribe didn’t care about their people being killed by Stone Village? Or did they not have the heart to let their guardian spirit participate in the battle?

“Sand Eagle Tribe had welcomed a group of eighteen outsiders, and many among them are experts and talented cultivators..”
