As soon as Lu Qingshuang finished speaking, the expressions of Qin Le, Chen Yun, Luo Qiuyue, and Wang Zhiheng immediately became somewhat strange.
Li Yanran and Chu Xiaonan looked bewildered, not quite understanding what had happened.
At this moment, Luo Qiuyue couldn't help but chuckle and continued the conversation:
"Well... what a coincidence. My master also said that I could go to the Heavenly Realm to cultivate during my vacation, so I brought you all along."
Chen Yun immediately chuckled and raised his hand: "Even Nezha, the great master, let me go up, and then... you know what happens."
"Me too... It's the same here." Wang Zhiheng rubbed his temples, his expression a mix of helplessness and amusement: "This is really... an unbelievable coincidence."
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback at first, and then they couldn't help but laugh.
They were all chosen by the celestial beings, who valued them highly and, coincidentally, made the same suggestion.
And they all seemed to be on the same page, packing up and bringing their other companions with them.
This absurd coincidence is truly hilarious.
"In that case," Qin Le smiled and shook his head, making the final decision, "the holiday arrangements are settled then—we'll all go to the Celestial Realm to cultivate!"
He didn't expect things to turn out this way, and while surprised, he also found it quite amusing.
"Um!"
"no problem!"
"You guys... you're really something."
"Hahaha……"
"..."
Everyone laughed and agreed. After all, being able to cultivate in the Celestial Realm was indeed an exceptional opportunity that far exceeded expectations.
Time flies, and the last days of the first semester have quietly passed by amidst intense review and assessments, finally ushering in the long holiday.
Three hundred demon students were summoned back to the demon territory by Ye Li. The reason was simple—they needed to go back to secure their spots to remain by Qin Le's side.
This is also a test for them by Ye Li.
If someone spends a semester with Qin Le but makes no significant progress, their position will be replaced by other more outstanding and hardworking young demons.
Upon their return, they will face challenges from their peers. Only by defeating all competitors with their strength can they regain the right to accompany Qin Le and comprehend the Dao.
When Qin Le returned home, he was greeted by that all-too-familiar, earth-shaking sound—
boom! ! !
A loud bang was heard, and the floor beneath their feet trembled three times.
Qin Le was already used to it and pushed open the door without changing his expression. Sure enough, his mother, Lin Wanrou, with her hair slightly curly from smoke and a few specks of soot on her face, poked her head out of the alchemy room.
Upon seeing Qin Le, she greeted him with a smile, "Your son's back?"
"Mom," Qin Le looked curiously towards the alchemy room, "what new pill are you working on now?"
"We haven't made anything new." Lin Wanrou walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down, her tone carrying a hint of researcher's distress: "What about the Transformation Pills from before the repeated experiments?"
"A Transformation Pill?" Qin Le was even more surprised: "Um...didn't you already have a finished product?"
According to his mother's research habits, once the first qualified product of a new elixir is successfully refined, it usually means that the main formula has been determined. The subsequent steps are just fine-tuning, optimization, and stabilization of the process before it is sent to the alliance for testing and sold online.
But this Transformation Pill has been around for so long, and Mom is still causing the furnace to explode?
This is clearly illogical.
"Don't even mention it." Lin Wanrou waved her hand, looking frustrated. "The first one you ate was like winning the lottery! After that, I meticulously replicated the recipe, the steps, the heat, and the ingredient ratios, but... it exploded every single time! I have absolutely no idea what went wrong."
Not only did Qin Le find it strange, but she herself was completely baffled.
Logically, successfully refining the first pill should mean that the formula is largely feasible. However, she is now repeatedly failing despite trying to replicate the successful formula, which completely contradicts the common sense she has accumulated over many years of alchemy experience.
However, there was no discouragement in Lin Wanrou's eyes; instead, her eyes shone with a light of high morale in the face of difficulties.
For her, overcoming difficulties is the greatest joy in alchemy; the more bizarre and illogical the problem, the more excited she becomes.
"Fine..." Qin Le was helpless in this matter.
His theoretical knowledge of alchemy may be more solid than that of the college teachers, but that is mostly based on the foundation and principles of an existing complete system.
He really couldn't help his mother with cutting-edge scientific research, which involved creating something from scratch and exploring unknown areas, especially when it came to the unknown question of why a successful experiment couldn't be replicated.
"Oh, by the way, there's something I wanted to tell you." Qin Le remembered something important: "I'm going to the Celestial Realm with some friends tomorrow for a while."
"Hmm? Why did you suddenly decide to go to the Heavenly Realm?" Lin Wanrou sat up straight and looked at her son curiously.
Qin Le then briefly recounted how several immortals had invited Chen Yun, Luo Qiuyue, Lu Qingshuang, and Wang Zhiheng to the Heavenly Realm for cultivation during their holidays, and how these individuals had all unanimously brought their other companions along, ultimately resulting in a collective Heavenly Realm cultivation trip.
He himself went up for a stroll and continued to fulfill his bi-weekly preaching commitment.
Under his consistent, unwavering sermons throughout the semester, his dining companions have all successfully grasped the essence of his teachings:
Lu Qingshuang – The Art of Ice and Snow
Chen Yun – The Art of Destruction
Wang Zhiheng – The Essence of the Sword
Chu Xiaonan – The Essence of Power
Luo Qiuyue – The Five Elements Theme
Li Yanran – The Artistic Conception of Painting
Thus, they have all taken the crucial first step on the path to immortality.
Next, one must continuously refine and deepen one's own artistic conception, using this as a foundation to ultimately touch upon and comprehend the laws.
"I see..." Lin Wanrou nodded after hearing this, then her eyes lit up as she got up and went into the room.
A moment later, she came out with two items—a palm-sized metal token engraved with the words "Heavenly Court" and shimmering with a faint golden light, and an antique-style storage ring.
"You can go up there for a bit." She stuffed the token and ring into Qin Le's hand, her tone matter-of-fact: "Help me buy some things. Spiritual plants, and some alchemy materials; the supplies here in the mortal realm aren't quite enough."
Although she can trade with Laozi every month through the essence of spiritual objects to obtain some high-end materials that are unique to the celestial realm and extinct in the mortal world, her inventory of many common basic spiritual plants and auxiliary materials, which are also produced in limited quantities in the mortal world, is indeed running out.
Originally, he planned to ask his master to help collect the items and then have someone bring them down. Now that his son is going up there, the task of buying them on his behalf has naturally fallen to him.
After all, the large-scale transfer of resources from the celestial realm to the mortal world is a fixed plan that takes place every five years.
If Qin Le hadn't brought it back, she would have had to wait nearly two more years.
As for her ascending to the heavens to buy it herself?
Don't even think about it!
If she went up there, she would probably be immediately dragged into Laozi's Tushita Palace by her master and locked in the alchemy room to refine pills every day. How would she have time to do her beloved free scientific research?
Moreover, the mortal realm is the safest and most comfortable place for her.
She's just a nobody at the early stage of Earth Immortal realm. How dangerous it is for her to run to the Heavenly Realm, a place teeming with powerful experts and rife with war!
In terms of survival skills, she felt she was not even as good as her own son.
Qin Le took the ring and token: "What exactly do you want to buy?"
The ring was filled with spirit stones, and the token was linked to a huge amount of contribution points under Lin Wanrou's name.
"I'll make a list for you." Lin Wanrou said, taking out a small notebook and starting to write: "If you don't have enough spirit stones or contribution points... borrow some from my master first, and I'll pay her back later."
Qin Le remained silent, sitting quietly to the side and waiting.
About half an hour later, Lin Wanrou stopped writing, looked at the three pages of paper filled with writing with satisfaction, and then handed them to Qin Le.
"Here, buy everything that's written on it. The types and quantities are all clearly labeled," she instructed with a smile.
Qin Le took the list, glanced at the first line, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
"Mom... your units of measurement..." He looked up, his expression somewhat indescribable: "Are you serious?"
The list does not use the common terms like "plant," "grain," "ounce," or "coin" to describe the quantity of various spiritual plants and materials.
Instead, it is written clearly and plainly—
ton!
