Nuwa, the goddess of immortality, said that cultivating immortality does not require spiritual energ

Having decided on the gift, Chen Yun immediately called his mother, Su Yuning, and asked her to make a magic bracelet with life-saving functions according to his requirements.

Su Yuning was initially confused and thought that her son had finally realized he wanted to pursue girls, so her tone was full of surprise.

Chen Yun could only sigh and spend a lot of time explaining before his mother understood that it was prepared for Wang Zhiheng.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhiheng thanked her and left in a hurry—Li Yanran was still waiting for him.

Qin Le and the other two were about to leave when suddenly a palm-sized phantom of Nezha appeared on Chen Yun's shoulder.

He glanced at Wang Zhiheng's departing figure, then turned to look at Qin Le and the other two, his tone unusually tinged with a hint of emotion:

"Your friend... his future path will probably not be easy."

"Huh? Boss, what do you mean by that?" Chen Yun was taken aback.

Qin Le and Chu Xiaonan also cast puzzled glances at them.

"That girl named Li Yanran," the illusory figure of Nezha said calmly, "her mother... is a quasi-saint. Do you understand now?"

The three of them were all taken aback.

After a brief silence, Chen Yun and Chu Xiaonan almost simultaneously gasped, their eyes widening in shock.

Although Qin Le was also surprised, he remained relatively calm.

"Old Wang is doomed..." Chen Yun rubbed his face and muttered.

"How strong must one be... to catch the eye of a quasi-saint?" Chu Xiaonan couldn't help but sigh.

Just imagining that scene is enough to bring immense pressure.

Nezha said it wouldn't be easy, which was already a very euphemistic way of putting it—it was clearly hellish difficulty.

The three of them silently lit a candle for Wang Zhiheng in their hearts, and silently added a word of encouragement before they dispersed.

Even if you know about this, you can't help; ultimately, he has to rely on himself.

Qin Le strolled around the academy and unknowingly wandered to a secluded, shady path. On a bench, Luo Qiuyue sat alone, her brows slightly furrowed, her expression clearly showing her sorrow.

"Still haven't gotten the hang of it?" Qin Le walked over, sat down next to her, and asked with a smile.

Seeing that it was Qin Le, Luo Qiuyue nodded helplessly: "I always feel... it's just a little bit off."

Since consulting Qin Le, she has devoted a great deal of energy to studying the relics and spiritual core of civilization in the mortal era. Her understanding has deepened day by day, but she has always been just one step away from truly grasping the essence of humanity.

That suffocating feeling of something seemingly within reach yet repeatedly slipping through her fingers made her very uncomfortable.

Seeing her like this, Qin Le smiled and said, "If you really don't want to take the path of 'sealing cultivation to experience mortals,' I have another suggestion—but it's a bit dangerous."

"What suggestion?" Luo Qiuyue looked up at him.

"Let's borrow the power of the Refining Heart Lake and see if we can experience a complete mortal life within the illusion," Qin Le said directly.

"...I don't think I've offended you, have I?" Luo Qiuyue looked at him speechlessly.

Of course she knew about the Refining Heart Lake—a renowned treasure land in the Heavenly Realm, but also a notoriously dangerous place. Its name reflected its purpose: to temper one's Dao heart.

If one can successfully overcome the trials of illusion, one's Dao heart will be greatly tempered, making future cultivation twice as effective.

But if one cannot overcome this... the backlash from inner demons, the shattering of one's Dao heart, and the death and dissipation of one's Dao are no exaggeration.

That was a dangerous place that even many immortals dared not venture into lightly, yet Qin Le suggested that she, a mortal who had not yet become an immortal, give it a try?

What's the difference between this and suggesting she take a walk in the gates of hell?

"I was just saying," Qin Le said, rubbing his nose, a little embarrassed. "If you had grasped the spirit of humanity sooner, things would have been much easier for me, wouldn't they?"

This suggestion is indeed not very reliable.

Luo Qiuyue rubbed her temples, as if she had made up her mind: "Fine... let's do it the way you originally said. But you have to help me."

"How can I help?"

"To experience ordinary life, I can't just stay cooped up in the academy all the time, can I? I have to go out and see the world." Luo Qiuyue looked at him with a slight smile in her eyes: "Come keep me company."

"I don't mind," Qin Le readily agreed, then casually asked, "But... can't I ask someone else?"

"The others need to hurry up and cultivate. Qing Shuang just grasped the essence and is consolidating it, so she doesn't have time either," Luo Qiuyue explained.

"Okay," Qin Le nodded. "I'll contact you by phone later."

According to Luo Qiuyue, he was indeed the most suitable candidate—he didn't have to suffer like others, and he was idle every day, except for occasionally guiding his classmates.

Once they entered university, fewer classmates needed his guidance on specific magical techniques and supernatural abilities. Instead, they mostly explored on their own, struggling to grasp the concepts and laws of magic. He was powerless to help them in this regard.

"Let's begin now. Here, take this."

As Luo Qiuyue spoke, she took out a silver bracelet with a groove and a black crystal about the size of a thumb.

She put the bracelet on her left wrist and then handed the black crystal to Qin Le.

"Why are you giving this to me?" Qin Le asked, somewhat puzzled, as he took the crystal.

He recognized it—a standard spirit-sealing artifact used by the Alliance, often employed to temporarily imprison the cultivation of lawbreakers. The black crystal was the only key.

"I have the key with me..." Luo Qiuyue smiled helplessly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to resist unlocking it myself."

Qin Le understood and put the black crystal into his storage ring: "Okay."

The silver bracelet flashed with a faint light and then quietly locked itself.

Luo Qiuyue breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to look at her palm, and then tried to clench her fist.

"This is... what it feels like to be a mortal."

His spiritual power was completely sealed, his physical strength was suppressed to the level of an ordinary person, his divine sense could not be released, and even the slight connection between his sea of ​​consciousness and his master Yue Cijing became blurry and ethereal.

A long-lost sense of vulnerability, stemming from life itself, enveloped her.

"How do you feel?" Qin Le asked with a smile.

"So weak."

Luo Qiuyue also smiled, her tone filled with curiosity, but also a hint of barely perceptible disappointment.

"Anyway, there's no danger in the academy, let's get used to it for a couple of days first," Qin Le suggested.

"Well, but right now... you need to help me untie this first." Luo Qiuyue stretched out her left hand, somewhat embarrassed.

"No way? It can't even hold up?" Qin Le asked in surprise.

"It's not that I can't handle it," Luo Qiuyue said helplessly. "It's just that my change of clothes are all in my storage ring, and I need to go back to my dorm to get them and put them away. I can't open it right now."

Qin Le chuckled and took out a black crystal, attaching it to the groove on the bracelet. A flash of inspiration, and the seal was temporarily broken.

Luo Qiuyue immediately got up and jogged towards the dormitory. Qin Le sat down again and waited quietly.

Shortly after, Luo Qiuyue returned, put the bracelet back on, and handed the key back to Qin Le.

The two sat down again on the bench. Luo Qiuyue suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, if we leave school together later, what about the demon classmates...?"

Qin Le replied nonchalantly, "Just bring it along, what else can we do?"

We can't keep them cooped up in the academy forever. Taking them out to see the world seems like a good idea.
