"Senior," Dongfang Jian said contemplatively, "That gourd is indeed a Spiritual Treasure, but it has been severely damaged..."
The wooden figure waved a hand, "Don't worry, I'll find a way to restore the gourd to its original state."
"Senior has a way?" Dongfang Jian's eyes lit up.
"Not at the moment..."
"Uh..."
"Nothing in this world is difficult for one who sets their mind to it. Just give me time, and I will surely come up with a solution."
"Senior is right."
"During this period, you should cultivate a deeper bond with the gourd, and it would be best to gain its acknowledgment, to willingly accept you as its master."
"Senior... I have a doubt in my heart, and I'm not sure whether to voice it."
"Speak freely," the wooden figure said with a smile. "As long as I know the answer, I will definitely tell you."
