Rebirth of the Wilderness

Kuzhu is immersed in the interior of Qingyan Mountain, intoxicated by the main peaks with different scenery and magnificent views.

Each mountain tells the story of nature with its unique posture, making people linger.

These main peaks are either majestic and tall, reaching into the sky, or graceful and elegant, like a poem or a painting.

They display the wonders of nature in their own ways, making people marvel at them and feel awe.

Walking through it, the bitter bamboo seems to have walked into a flowing painting, and every scene is so fascinating.

Finally, the unsatisfied Kuzhu trekked through the remaining 362 main peaks in Qingyan Mountain, leaving its footprints on each one.

During this journey, Kuzhu not only appreciated the magnificence and diversity of nature, but also gradually outlined a blueprint of his ideal destination in his mind.

"Kuzhu, we have finished our tour. Which main peak are you going to choose as your cave?"

When Kuzhu heard Hong's soft question, his eyes flashed with determination and expectation.

He slowly raised his finger and pointed to the mountain in the distance that had already taken root in his heart.

Hong looked in the direction pointed by Kuzhu, and saw that one side of the mountain was covered with dense and lush bamboo forest, like a green ocean.

The top of the mountain is covered with snow, as if it is wearing a holy silver crown, which forms a sharp contrast with the emerald green below the mountain, adding a bit of mystery and solemnity.

The white snow seems to be the purest brushstrokes of nature, lightly dotting the top of the mountain, making the entire mountain look more majestic and magnificent.

Covered with white snow, the mountain top appears even taller, like a fairy in white gauze, standing quietly in the sky, overlooking all things in the world.

Whenever the sun shines, the white snow will sparkle with dazzling light, contrasting with the blue sky and white clouds, forming a breathtakingly beautiful picture.

For Kuzhu, this snow-capped mountain adds a bit of attraction.

It not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also has an indescribable holiness and purity.

Kuzhu knew that on top of this mountain, he would be able to find a deeper way of practice and be more closely connected with the heavens, the earth, and nature.

At this time, a breeze blew, and the bamboo forests that were as big as mountains and seas swayed gently in the breeze, exuding a faint fragrance. They swayed gently in the mountains, not only enjoying the tranquility and beauty, but also showing the world the tenacity and indomitable spirit of life in their own way.

Overall, the mountain has beautiful scenery, with the gentleness and delicacy of a water town and the grandeur of a snowfield. It is strikingly similar to the place where bitter bamboo was born, as if it was a gift specially prepared by nature for the bitter bamboo.

Seeing this, Hong knew that Kuzhu’s choice was not accidental, but the result of careful consideration.

So Hong smiled and nodded, her eyes full of encouragement and expectations for Kuzhu.

She said softly, “Well, that mountain is indeed suitable for you.

There, you can continue your practice, be with the bamboo forest, and blend with nature. I believe you will find your own fun and peace. It is an excellent place for retreat."

Upon hearing this, Kuzhu's face blossomed into a satisfied smile, which showed an infinite longing and confidence for the future.

He knew very well that this choice not only meant that he would find a new home in this mountain forest, but also meant that he would embark on a new path of cultivation here in pursuit of the supreme realm.

From now on, bitter bamboo will be one of the guardians of this forest, and its existence will add a touch of poetry and charm to the scenery.

From now on, he will practice quietly in this bamboo forest, listen to the whisper of the wind, feel the breath of nature, and live and prosper with all things.

"Kuzhu, now that you and I have just finished our journey and have both reached the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, it is time to retreat and make a breakthrough."

Hong's words revealed a sense of determination and firmness.

She continued, “Now your master is in seclusion and my father God is also missing. We cannot rely on external forces now and can only rely on our own efforts.

Let us take this opportunity to practice in seclusion, strive to break through the bottleneck as soon as possible, and reach a higher level.

When your master comes out of retreat and my Father God returns, we can give them a surprise."

When Kuzhu heard this, a surge of blood and passion surged in his heart.

He understood what Hong meant, and knew that this was their best option right now.

So he nodded firmly and decided to embark on the path of seclusion and practice with Hong.

Having made up his mind, after saying goodbye to Kuzhu, Hong took a deep breath, took firm steps, and walked towards his own cave.

There, she will begin her journey of retreat and practice, writing her own legendary chapter with sweat and persistence.

And all these efforts and dedication are to prove her worth to God the Father and make Him feel proud and pleased with her.

Her steps were firm and powerful, and her eyes were shining with expectations and determination for the future.

"I must not let the Father down!"

Her heart is filled with firm belief, which is like a burning flame, illuminating her way forward.

She knew that as the first life created by God the Father, she carried God’s endless expectations and love.

Despite her congenital defects, the wisdom and love of God the Father allowed her to go through various experiences and be reborn with greater potential and unlimited possibilities.

For her, this retreat was not just a simple spiritual practice journey, but also an important moment for her to prove herself to Father God and repay His kindness.

She knew very well that this was a lonely and long road, full of unknowns and challenges.

But as she firmly believes, as long as you have faith in your heart, you can overcome all difficulties and move forward courageously.

She knows that this journey will be full of hardships and tribulations, but she also believes that as long as she keeps her original intention and firm in her faith, she will be able to reach the end and reap her own glory and honor.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, lengthening her back, making her look lonely and determined.

This back figure seems to be announcing to the world that she is about to embark on a new journey to pursue a higher and farther realm.

And after Hong left, Kuzhu found an ideal place for retreat on the mountain of his choice.

He waved his hand lightly, and an exquisite portable cave appeared before his eyes.

This cave was the treasure bestowed upon him by Taoist Qingtian. Although it was not big, it had all the necessary facilities to meet all his needs for cultivation in seclusion.

Kuzhu did not make too many arrangements because he knew that it was safe and worry-free inside Qingyan Mountain, and that true practice lies in inner peace and concentration rather than external luxury and complexity.

He sat quietly in the cave, closed his eyes and began to adjust his breathing and mentality.

The surrounding bamboo forest swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, as if it were the most melodious music of nature, adding a bit of tranquility and harmony to his practice.

From then on, Kuzhu began his journey of seclusion and practice in the Qingyan Mountains.

And whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he would always think of the days when he fought side by side with Hong Yun, Zhen Yuanzi, Fuxi, Nuwa and the three Taishang brothers, as well as the many innate creatures along the way, and the oath they made together.

These memories are like bright stars, illuminating his way forward and making him more determined in his beliefs and pursuits.

As Kuzhu and Hong entered into seclusion one after another, the Qingyan Dojo returned to its former tranquility.

In the days to come, Kuzhu and Hong will immerse themselves in spiritual practice day after day, year after year, hoping to write their own legendary chapters in this vast world with sweat and persistence.
