Gulu, Gulu gulu...

One of Po Xu Yuzhuang’s eyeballs rotated clockwise, while the other rotated counterclockwise. The frequencies of the two eyeballs’ rotations were even different, giving off a peculiar sensation.

Song Yan stared wide-eyed and open-mouthed at that porcelain doll-like pale face.

And that face seriously studied him in return.

But it was definitely not a gaze of deep affection—it was learning, mimicry.

Before long, Po Xu Yuzhuang’s eyeballs quieted down, calmly resting in the center, and then met Song Yan’s gaze.

Song Yan smiled slightly.

He knew he had severed a small piece of cause and effect, and understood that he severed it because he felt the cause was already concluded, severing at this moment would be beneficial for both sides.

However, he couldn’t remember what kind of cause and effect it was.

Perhaps, he once had a special relationship with one of the female cultivators in these cave mansions, or perhaps he killed an enemy, or maybe he saved a mortal, or something else.

But it didn’t matter, he had severed the cause and effect, yet as the one who severed it, he felt a strange sense of loss, loneliness, maybe that’s the price.

He curiously released his divine sense, sweeping through the surrounding cave mansions in Seeking Immortal Valley, trying to see if anyone else felt as lost as he.

Scenes flashed by...

There were couples joyfully engaging in dual cultivation, cultivators working diligently on their solitary cultivation, cultivators discussing the Dao by candlelight, and a female cultivator seeking guidance from the Elder of Dust Light Sect...

He gazed at the Elder and the female cultivator, observing for a long time, finding nothing unusual about them.

Song Yan withdrew his sight.

He already understood that this might be the small price for severing cause and effect.

If severed frequently, the small price would stack crazily until his mental realm collapsed.

Formless and selfless, but not emotionless.

Isn’t it true that no one can be emotionless?

During this process of severing cause and effect, although he couldn’t remember what he severed, he remembered the experience gained from this severing.

"Selfless" is to sever a piece of cause and effect from himself, making him no longer exist to others who had cause and effect with him, thus removing the "self" in this cause and effect. This is "selfless."

But such magic technique needs to be used cautiously.

Firstly, the cause and effect between you and your target should be mostly concluded, as this is the weakest moment of cause and effect, only then can it be severed;

Secondly, your realm and power must far exceed your target.

As for other factors, they can only be realized in future attempts.

After thinking through these, Song Yan casually leaned against the mountain wall by the cave entrance, pulled out a jar of fine wine from his storage bag, took a few mouthfuls, and quietly watched the boundless rain flow at this moment.

He had become accustomed to using the simplest way to pass such times of melancholy and loneliness.

The rain poured wildly; this scene, this night, although empty and desolate, yet carried a unique realm.

Old causes and effects pass away, and new ones will always begin.

The human heart is like a bottle; it can’t hold much.
