    I am a thousand-year-old, solitary herb growing on the cliff face of the Taihang Mountains. Though an inconspicuous and often overlooked medicinal plant, I am unlike that old ginseng on the opposite mountain, constantly targeted by all sorts of demons and monsters. That old ginseng, like a tortoise, carries bulging baggage every day, always on the run, hiding and fleeing, and even now, at my advanced age, remains a ten-thousand-year-old spirit. But thanks to my tenacious vitality—unafraid of harsh cold or scorching heat, able to survive even in the cracks of rocks—and my superior conditions of constantly swaying my head and enjoying the essence of the sun and moon, well… and of course, thanks to my neighbor, the drunken mountain god, who recognized my extraordinary talent and innate wisdom, and whose affinity for immortality brought me into being a spirit. But only at night, when I transform into human form and drift within the limited valley, I sit on a cliff face, gazing at the bright moon above, vowing to cultivate myself into a lovely, beautiful, and beloved flower fairy, so I can quickly leave this mountain and see the outside world. Otherwise, that uncle down the mountain will keep threatening to use me to make wine, using me as leverage to blackmail me into guarding the valley while he slacks off and enjoys a carefree life in the human world. Speaking of which, I haven't seen the drunken mountain god uncle return in a long time, especially since I haven't had his roast goose in ages, and my notebook is practically worn out from reading it so much. Without any amusement, I could only gaze all day at the ancient ginseng on another distant mountain peak. Today, he was again surrounded by two or three people, constantly dodging and weaving, his pack on his back. The group scratched their heads, unable to find him. I scoffed, "What idiots! That old man is right under your feet!" I'd seen this trick for nearly a thousand years and was already tired of it. It would be much better to revert to my original form, lie down, and absorb the moon's spiritual energy to cultivate into an immortal. With my freedom, I could go wherever I wanted with a single spell. But finally, utterly bored, I sent several communication talismans to the mountain god, threatening and bribing him: "If you don't bring back my beloved fish, meat, and storybooks, I'm quitting!" Anyway, this valley was rarely visited; there was no point in a spirit that could only transform at night guarding it. Finally, on the third day of my refusal to work, Uncle Mountain God swaggered up to me, carrying my favorite fragrant roast goose and duck, along with a Qiankun bag containing several library towers. He tossed his Mountain God Seal into my arms and declared righteously, "I'm going to have some romance, to express my love. You, little devil, will keep watch for me for a while longer. With this seal here to suppress you, you can protect this mountain range and even help you quickly cultivate your immortal body." I stared blankly at the dark, ugly square seal Uncle Mountain God had thrown at me for a long time, then disgustedly tossed it aside. I picked up the delicious whole roast duck and stuffed it into my mouth, mumbling between bites, "Trying to trick me again? No way!" This sprayed grease all over Uncle Mountain God's face. This was the seal of his divine power; without it, he was without divine power. Who would be so foolish as to give up their position as a mountain god to become a powerless mortal? Mortals are said to be fragile, subject to birth, aging, sickness, and death. This drunken uncle was trying to trick her into escaping to the mortal realm for pleasure. The mountain god, unfazed, wiped the oil stains I'd sprayed on his face and leaned closer, waving his hand earnestly, "Bound by the mountain god's seal, I can only travel within a hundred miles. I can't accompany my Arou to see the world's myriad landscapes." I looked at him in shock. This mountain god was actually having an affair with a mortal? I gasped. In the stories I'd read, many mortals were tormented and wounded by love, often ending badly. Even most immortals considered the tribulation of love the most heart-wrenching and difficult ordeal. Could this be the mountain god's "tribulation of love"? The mountain god uncle laughed heartily, patted my shoulder, and looked at me with pity, seeing that I only knew about the outside world through stories in novels: "The fate of the characters in novels is controlled by the novel's master, but my fate is in my own hands, not his. The outside world is vast and boundless. When you have the chance to go out and see for yourself, you'll know how vast, rich, and wonderful it is." Was he serious? I angrily wiped the grease from the corner of my mouth and began to earnestly advise him with some concern: "How can you give up your great immortal path for this love between a man and a woman? Foolish! Beware of the trouble that beauty brings!" However, the mountain god uncle looked at the bright moon in the sky with a loving expression: "What is love in this world that makes people willing to die for it? I would die for her. What does the position of mountain god matter?" Well, it seems he has seriously gone mad, so obsessed that he would give up his life for love. No matter how earnestly I pleaded with him, he remained unmoved, determined to "run away from home." At his age, he acted like a naive child, so easily swayed by love. So utterly useless! I even suspected his status as a mountain god must have come through some powerful backdoor. Seeing his unwavering resolve, and also unable to resist the temptation of achieving immortality sooner—originally requiring a hundred years to cultivate, but this magic seal could grant me freedom within fifty years—plus the mountain god's silver tongue and his sugar-coated bullets filling several library towers, I finally agreed to his request, hoping he would keep his promise and return soon. The mountain god promised me that after fifty years, he would return to take over the position of mountain god after accompanying Arou through her life. I could also take this opportunity to cultivate diligently, and upon his return, he would surely allow me to see the mortal world. In the years after the Mountain God left, I, a lowly flower spirit with weak spiritual power, guarded a powerful magical seal, attracting the covetousness and harassment of many surrounding ghosts. Fortunately, these ghosts only dared to appear at night, and with the seal, they dared not act rashly. Day after day, year after year, I guarded this valley for nearly fifty years. Through diligent cultivation using the Mountain God's seal, I gradually gained the ability to transform into human form during the day, allowing me to fly and roam freely within the valley, making life quite pleasant. Especially the entire library in the Qiankun bag that the Mountain God gave me for amusement, filled with all sorts of strange tales and records—from folk customs and human life to demon myths, chivalrous spirits, immortal romances, and historical anecdotes—made me eager to see the vast and different world the Mountain God spoke of. I counted down the fifty years I had agreed upon with the Mountain God, but on that day, the Mountain God did not return. But at midday, when the sun was high and my spiritual energy was at its weakest, I was just waking up from a deep sleep, my original body, still basking in the sunlight, when I groggily looked up and saw a handsome young man with refined features and resolute eyes. His robes fluttered, his black hair flew, and he pierced through layers of mist and sunlight, riding the wind towards the cliff face in my direction… I rubbed my sleepy eyes, staring blankly at the handsome young man approaching me. My heart, which had been as steady as a mountain for thousands of years, was surprisingly pounding wildly! Damn it, I was actually moved! Could this be the legendary love at first sight? I think I can now understand the mountain god's words: "What is love in this world, that it makes people bound together by life and death... Um... I wouldn't take his life, but I've fallen for his beauty." This young master landed on a clearing on the cliff above me and began to meditate with his eyes closed. I felt spiritual energy constantly flowing into him; he must also be a cultivator, drawn here by this auspicious place brimming with spiritual energy. Isn't this fate? I'm reminded of a beautiful saying: "The mountain has trees, and the trees have branches; my heart is pleased with you, but you do not know." That's right! Young master, this flower bud of mine has fallen for you; why don't you come into my arms? "My beauty, wait for me! After noon, once I regain my human form, I'll definitely seduce you and make you my husband. I'll treat you well! I'll pamper you!" However, I forgot that cultivators set up seals around themselves during cultivation, allowing spiritual energy to enter but not leave. My own spiritual energy was also sealed, making it impossible to activate or use after noon, let alone regain my human form. If he continued cultivating like this, he would likely drain all the spiritual energy I had painstakingly cultivated for a thousand years. Forget seducing men, I wouldn't even be able to save my life. In desperation, I took out the Mountain God's Seal and placed it on my head. With the Mountain God's Seal's protection, I should be safe. I thought that even a minor immortal like him couldn't withstand the Mountain God's divine power being drained. I was completely captivated by his unparalleled beauty, staring at this elegant young man who had been cultivating here for three days and three nights without stopping. I was finally awakened by the pain of my body gradually losing its spiritual power. I realized that he had completely drained the spiritual power from the mountain god's seal and was already absorbing mine. I had underestimated this young master; he was actually a high-ranking deity with spiritual power far surpassing that of the mountain god. At this moment, I no longer cared whether I would also be unlucky enough to become a mountain god with only a name and no power when the mountain god returned, because if he continued to cultivate, my life would be in danger as well. I clutched my aching body, cursing bitterly, "I only coveted your beauty, and you want my life! Men are all ungrateful bastards!" This wicked man, of course, couldn't hear my resentment. He sat there calmly and steadily as always. All I could do was curse his ancestors and wish he would be struck by lightning for doing such a despicable thing to vent my anger, and I could only watch helplessly as my spiritual power was drained away bit by bit. Perhaps even the heavens couldn't bear to watch, or perhaps my curse had come true; indeed, bolts of lightning appeared in the sky, striking him directly. Only then did the young master release his seal and rise to confront the incoming thunder. I finally found an opportunity, using my remaining spiritual energy to shrink into a ball and scramble away from this ominous place. If I had been any slower, my last bit of spiritual energy would have been reduced to ashes by the thunder. The young master formed a white light barrier with his hands to block the thunder above his head, staring in astonishment at the ball-like thing that had appeared out of nowhere and rolled away beneath his feet. I, like the countless nights of resentful ghosts that had clung to the Mountain God's Seal in my hand, glaring at this immortal young master with red eyes, completely forgetting my earlier vow to seduce this handsome young man and make him my husband after regaining my human form. Damn it! At this moment, all I want is to skin him alive and drink his blood. I can see that these bolts of heavenly lightning are tribulation lightning. If he fails, I will spit on his corpse and curse him to be utterly destroyed and never reincarnated. If he succeeds, his spiritual power will be weakest during the brief moment of his ascension and the reshaping of his primordial spirit. Even if I have to use forbidden techniques, I will reclaim double the share of spiritual power that belongs to me and the mountain god. Click the link below to continue reading Chapter Two.
