I've never felt happy to become an immortal.

Chapter 221 Aunt Qingmei
No matter how much time has passed in the world of true cultivation, it is only less than 24 hours in modern society.

To outsiders, Bai Xuan had simply overslept and slept in late, not getting up until almost noon.

The old man didn't wake him up, letting Bai Xuan sleep until the sun was high in the sky. When he woke up, breakfast had already turned into lunch.

There's not much to complain about.

The old man had already taken the big yellow dog out.

During the few days Qin Xiaochun stayed at Bai Xuan's house, he didn't have much time to spend with the old man, nor was he interested in walking the dog. Instead, the big yellow dog served the old man like a grandson, making him very happy.

Before, they had an attitude of "If you dare to keep a dog, I'll throw you out," but now it's become "I still have to go home and feed the dog."

Upon entering the washroom, Bai Xuan mechanically brushed his teeth, foam flying from his mouth as he casually opened the Dark Moon Realm Gate.

I took a quick look at its update information.

[Supernatural Powers: Second White Steed (Locked), Third Reaching Heaven, Fourth Riding the Wind, Sixth Imperial Decree]

The supernatural powers have been unlocked in three stages.

Except for the second White Horse, which is locked and cannot be used, the other three are already usable.

The third effect of "Resisting Heaven" is defense, and theoretically it can be used in any space.

Moreover, the Six Desires Demon's forced distortion of the third Heavenly Shield's effect opened up new avenues for Bai Xuan, suggesting that the application of supernatural powers might be more extensive.

It's like the character for "scholar" which, when turned upside down, becomes "dry"; or the character for "bitter" which, when turned upside down, becomes the character for "grass".

Simply put, it's a shift in mindset, a reverse deduction of how to apply the method.

There is a similar setting in the famous gag manga "Elbow Technique Kaisen". The spells used by sorcerers can be in two forms: the spell and the reverse spell... The Third Immortal Slayer should be the reverse form of the Third Heaven Slayer.

The strategy has shifted from defense and parrying to cutting and opening up new fronts.

Of course, this is just a temporary thought, and it's unclear whether it will be effective.

Bai Xuan himself didn't know much about these sword immortal remains; they seemed to be products of the Heavenly Dao.

As he gradually finished collecting all the supernatural abilities, he began to wonder what kind of supernatural ability would be ranked number one.

Second is time; third is space... Time is king, space reigns supreme; so what else transcends time and space?

He beckoned with his finger to turn on the tap, and the water, flowing backwards, defied gravity and flew up, rinsing away the foam in his mouth and then washing away the dirt and oil secreted during sleep.

After it was over, I didn't need to lift a finger; the towel flew over by itself, and the faucet turned off automatically.

It was as if an invisible magical hand was doing all of this for him.

Mental movement.

Before acquiring supernatural powers, Bai Xuan had to exert tremendous effort even to move a potato chip, as his mental energy output was restricted. Now, however, his mental energy output is stable and effortless.

There was not the slightest stinging sensation on my forehead.

If I were to unleash my full mental power, I wonder how much weight I could bear?

Bai Xuan stroked his chin, thinking he would try again later.

As the Dark Moon Gate's functions continued to improve, I gradually began to develop in the real world in a way that made me less than human.

I sat down at the table and started eating lunch.

Let's move on to the next item.

[Armor: Sumeru Ring, None available]

An extra slot has been added to the armory, so you can now carry two items.

but……

Bai Xuan looked at the antique-looking bronze ring that had appeared in his hand and wondered if this counted as exploiting a bug.

Since the Sumeru Ring was brought over, the space inside the Sumeru Ring was also brought over, and the things inside the space were naturally brought over as well.

He flipped his palm over, and the Lone Goose Sword appeared in his hand. With a flash of light, the Lone Goose Sword transformed into a silver note, and then into a gourd-shaped precious medicine.

Precious herbs cannot grow naturally in places lacking spiritual energy; they are simply not suited to the local environment. However, the spiritual energy contained within them is still highly nourishing.

"If you can cultivate with spiritual herbs, does that mean I can cultivate here too?" Bai Xuan thought for a moment, then put away the precious herbs: "Forget it, what's the point of cultivating?"

Why be a scoundrel? Wouldn't it be better to be a superhuman? Modern society isn't that dangerous, so why think about fighting and killing all the time?

The lack of spiritual energy in this world is a fatal flaw; there's simply nowhere to replenish the consumed spiritual energy.

They also need to import elixirs from the true cultivation world to restore spiritual energy... What kind of interdimensional transporter is this?

Bai Xuan flipped his hand again, and an oil paper package appeared in his hand, containing a cold braised chicken leg.

The thought about Fan Qingshuang flashed through my mind.

I'll put aside thinking about that for now; I have plenty of time, and I also need time to recover from my injury.

Bai Xuan got up and heated up the braised chicken leg. He took a bite and found it to be quite delicious, much more fragrant than the ones sold in shops. It was a flavor that couldn't be found in the real world, since the chicken also contained a trace of spiritual energy.

He spun three chicken drumsticks by himself, and when he felt that was enough, he planned to save them for dinner. When he turned around, he saw a big yellow dog sitting next to the table, drooling, its eyes fixed on the chicken drumsticks on the plate.

"Go eat your dog food." Bai Xuan didn't intend to share.

"Awoo..." The big yellow dog could only carry its food bowl and run outside by itself.

Bai Wuwei's voice rang out: "You're finally awake. What were you doing last night? Did you stay up all night? Were you chatting with girls under the covers?"

The old man was as energetic as ever, and the first thing he said was to urge him to find a partner in various ways.

Bai Xuan was already immune to it, so he pretended not to hear and went to the kitchen to start washing the dishes and chopsticks.

"Alright, alright, you're already getting impatient after just one sentence." Bai Wuwei said after sitting down, "Have you forgotten something?" "Forgot what?" Bai Xuan's question meant that he really didn't remember. It wasn't that he had a bad memory, but rather that his memory was biased due to running back and forth between the two places.

"I told you to make a phone call to your aunt, don't you remember?" Bai Wuwei glared at him, his beard bristling.

"I understand." Bai Xuan thought it was something serious: "I'll call it in a bit."

The old man urged, "Start now!"

Bai Xuan reluctantly took out his phone and found the phone number in his contacts... The last call was twenty-six days ago.

It seems like less than a month has passed.

But you can't calculate it that way.

The twenty-six days that Bai Xuan spent in the modern world were equivalent to several years or even more than a decade in the other world.

Therefore, when he presses the call button, he needs to make some inexplicable determination to shake off the sense of unfamiliarity in his heart.

International long-distance telephone communications take a little longer.

A melodious ringtone sounded from the speaker; it was a song hummed by a woman.

'Sakura, Sakura, I want to see you, I want to see you now'
This song is quite famous, but it's often mistaken for an anime song. In fact, it's not. The story it tells isn't about love, but about longing. It was inspired by the short story "Sakura," and the song's content is a response to the father's longing from the perspective of a deceased daughter.

This song is clearly not original; it was sung by the person on the other end of the phone.

Bai Xuan first heard this song in an anime clip, and was then drawn to watch the anime. He dragged his aunt to watch it with him, and the two of them fell silent after watching it. Afterwards, they hugged each other and cried like dogs.

The intro to just one song brought her image to the surface of my memory, and my memories of her gradually became clearer.

Then the ringing stopped.

The call was answered, and after a pause of about a second, an intellectual voice came through.

"Hey?"

Her voice carried a hint of afternoon languor. The only sounds on the other end of the phone were human voices and breathing; there was no sound of traffic or footsteps.

"It's me." Bai Xuan snapped out of his daze. "Is now a convenient time?"

"It's convenient. I'm working on my thesis at home, and no one will bother me." A comfortable groan came from the phone. You could imagine the young woman on the other end stretching like a cat, with a few crisp clicking sounds in the background.

"You finally decided to call me first... but it seems like I was the one who asked?"

Bai Xuan told an obvious lie: "I've been quite busy lately."

"What are you so busy with? You've moved back home, are you busy looking for a job? Or busy inheriting the family fortune your mother left you? She's already made a fortune, does she want to go even further and become a tycoon?"

The woman spoke quickly and clearly, her words like the rhythmic cadence of a musical instrument.

As a tutor at a Japanese university, she is an academic and has never gotten along with Bai Xuan's beautiful mother.

When the pretty mother wanted to take Bai Xuan back to tutor him personally, it was this aunt who objected, and the two had a big argument and parted on bad terms.

Bai Xuan didn't want to get involved in this dispute, so he asked, "So what's the matter? The old man is urging me to call you back as soon as possible."

"Well, it's nothing serious," Auntie said. "I just wanted you to come to Japan for a few days."

"why?"

"Your grandma misses you."

"Ah..." Bai Xuan really couldn't find a reason to refuse this time.

In this large family, Grandma Shangguan was his most loving relative and the one who actually made the decisions.

Then a soft voice came through the phone.

"I miss you too."

A gentle and tender voice.

Bai Xuan immediately held the phone a short distance away, paused for three seconds, and said, "I understand, I'll go see Grandma."

"Then it's settled. I'll book your plane ticket right away, how about 9 AM tomorrow?"

A lively and cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone, not even giving Bai Xuan a chance to reply.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow, that's all~ See you tomorrow."

beep...

The phone hangs up.

Bai Xuan looked at the old man who seemed about to say something and predicted in advance: "I'm going to Japan this time, but I can't guarantee that I can persuade Grandma to come back."

The old man got up and walked around the living room twice, then rubbed his hands together and asked, "Are you planning to stay there for a few days?"

"I'm not sure." Bai Xuan shrugged. "This is my first time going there too. I'll probably stay for ten days or so."

He had just finished speaking when a loud voice rang out.

"I disagree!"

A beautiful woman strode into the Bai family mansion, exuding an astonishing aura of a powerful businesswoman. Like a tornado, she squeezed her figure into a space that seemed incongruous with her presence, the howling wind suppressing everything around her under her violent pressure.

This woman shattered the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere inside the old house.

Even Bai Xuan couldn't help but cast a surprised glance at him.

Then he was immediately reprimanded by the other party.

"Look where your mother is!"
