’Gaining a little over 6 points of Skill Level a day... it still feels too slow.’
’I should go out for a proper walk today.’
Su Qing had to relax.
But this time, things seemed different.
Everyone Su Qing knew, except for his masters, was out and about.
Many areas on Qingsu Island were bustling with excitement.
It was as if it were the New Year.
’Is it the New Year already?’
Su Qing pondered for a moment before heading to the kitchen.
Luo Xingya was already in the kitchen cooking. At a dining table in a corner of the small courtyard, Su Hongshang sat alone, sipping tea.
"Young Master, you’ve come out of seclusion?" Luo Xingya flashed a sweet smile upon seeing Su Qing.
But she didn’t stop what she was doing.
Su Qing smiled and asked, "Is today some special occasion?"
"It is."
"These past few days mark the anniversary of Qingsu Island’s creation. Didn’t you know, Young Master?"
"Lots of people are celebrating on their own."
"It’s as lively as when mortals celebrate the New Year."
"No wonder."
"Young Master, are you going to cook with me?" Luo Xingya couldn’t help but ask, noticing Su Qing had already picked up a kitchen knife.
"Mhm, I’ll cook."
"I’m going to make something deep-fried."
...
When Su Qing brought a dish to the dining table, Su Hongshang raised an eyebrow in delight. "I thought our dear husband was going to stay in seclusion forever."
"I haven’t been in seclusion the whole time. A man’s got to relax now and then."
Su Qing revealed his cultivation: Yin Realm Perfection.
Su Hongshang’s smile froze on her face instantly.
"Your cultivation... how can it be this fast!"
She was utterly baffled. How had Su Qing’s cultivation reached Yin Realm Perfection so quickly?
Even she was still only at the Middle Tier of the Yin Realm, and that was with her constantly absorbing Immortal Qi and practicing an Immortal Scripture.
She had thought her own cultivation speed was already very fast.
After all, an Immortal Cultivator’s training was measured in years.
Not to mention this was the cultivation speed for the Fifth Realm.
It was simply unimaginable.
"Of course my cultivation speed is fast."
"You should know what kind of man your husband is."
"How could my cultivation not be fast when I rule over an Immortal Realm?"
Su Qing then concealed his cultivation, preventing Su Hongshang from probing any further.
Su Hongshang didn’t give it much more thought.
Her gaze shifted to Luo Xingya.
Luo Xingya’s cultivation speed seemed to have gotten even faster.
Foundation Establishment Eighth Layer. Barring any surprises, she would reach Foundation Establishment Perfection within a year.
This was the result of her excellent innate aptitude, combined with the effects of Su Qing’s Spirit Fruits.
’Truly powerful.’
However, progress would inevitably slow down once one reached a certain stage.
"How did you make this golden-brown chicken?"
"You’ve never made anything like this before."
"You just coat it in flour and deep-fry it. I don’t usually bother making things like this."
"But I was in a good mood today, so I made some for you to try."
"It is delicious, but it feels like eating coarse grains. It’s not as good as the dishes Xingya cooks."
"Hey, don’t get hung up on the subtle differences in texture."
"It’s obviously delicious."
Su Qing chuckled helplessly and pulled Luo Xingya down to sit and eat dinner with them.
As night fell, Su Qing noticed lights appearing in the second Great World above them.
He remembered the Array Plate was still inside, so there shouldn’t be any instances of slaughter or oppression.
Su Hongshang followed Su Qing’s gaze.
"These two Pocket Worlds of yours... the space in just one of them is dozens of times larger than the Celestial Saint Continent."
"If they were all inhabited by mortals, you’d end up with a huge population of them, and a massive number of people with Spirit Roots would emerge."
"That would lead to a shortage of Spiritual Qi in the Immortal Cultivation Realm."
"It’s fine. Spiritual Qi will never be in short supply."
"But there’s no way I’m ceding the Celestial Saint Continent to the Demon Race either."
Su Qing chuckled. Even though his Great Worlds could support countless lives, that didn’t mean he would just hand over the lands of the continent.
’If worst comes to worst, I’ll just sneak over and unleash the World-Purifying Immortal Technique.’
He reckoned that even a birthplace of Demon Fiends could be purified by him.
"The matters of the Demon Realm... people like us probably have no say in them."
"It’s all people from the Abyss Sea who come here to negotiate."
Su Hongshang said faintly. This was the reality for those who lacked strength; they had no control over such matters.
When the sky falls, the tall ones hold it up, but they might not be able to bear the entire weight.
Even a few falling fragments could destroy certain existences.
"What’s there to be afraid of? Nothing major will happen in the short term. What kind of place do you think our Qingsu Island is?"
"Even a Ninth Realm Immortal would have to behave themselves if they came here, alright?"
Su Qing said proudly.
It was a fact, and having stated it once, he wouldn’t bring it up again.
"Yes, your Grand Array is very strong, but I heard you were still ambushed. If Tang Dan hadn’t mentioned it at the auction, I still wouldn’t know."
"..." Su Qing just smiled. "I was just careless. It won’t happen again."
"I won’t give them another chance."
"Now that we’re full, a certain someone promised to let me use some Spirit Medicine."
With a single step, Su Hongshang had already entered the Spirit Vein Small World.
The corner of Su Qing’s mouth twitched.
’This spendthrift... It’s a good thing I haven’t revealed my Tier Nine Spirit Medicines.’
’Otherwise, wouldn’t even my Tier Nine Spirit Medicines be in jeopardy?’
Speaking of Tier Nine Spirit Medicines...
Su Qing hadn’t tried synthesizing them yet. He hadn’t paid much attention to the Tier Eight Celestial Medicines after they were grown.
’Oh well. I’ll think about it after I break through to the Entering the Void Realm.’
...
Su Qing slipped away as well.
He ran into the Little Immortal Realm and began cultivating again.
To be honest, it was fine when the Demon Realm wasn’t mentioned. But the moment it was, Su Qing felt a sense of unease.
He had to raise his cultivation properly.
’Otherwise, it’d be a real joke if I went out and got myself killed again.’
He once again eradicated more than ten Earth Great Immortals within his Micro Acupoint Great Worlds.
Su Qing’s lifespan skyrocketed.
He took out a Spirit Fruit and began to refine it.

「Demon Realm.」
On Heaven Refining Mountain, a floating peak, Demonic Qi ran rampant throughout the Demon Realm. Most members of the Demon Race, however, were used to it and had long ago started to ignore its existence.
"Delusional Dream, what are you doing here?"
"I came to see you, you old geezer."
"What is that you’re carrying? How can it so effectively suppress Demonic Qi?"
"And why has your aura become so pure?"
"Yanmo Taoist, you have already integrated with the Demon Realm and become one of its Ninth Realm experts. Even if you knew, what could you do?"
This was a conversation between an old man and a man with black hair and black eyes.
Although the old man’s hair was graying and the roiling Demonic Qi on his face obscured his features, his Life Force was immeasurably vast.
"Hmph. One look and I can tell you’ve taken a trip to the Spirit Realm and forgotten where your roots are!"
The old man spoke no more and attacked directly.
In the Demon Realm, a Ninth Realm expert’s power was considered invincible. The same could be said for the Spirit Realm.
But he could not leave the Demon Realm.
The entire Demon Realm pressed down on Delusional Dream, yet he showed no sign of panic.
"A clone?" The old man’s demon pupils widened in astonishment.
"A gift for you."
As soon as Delusional Dream spoke, his body exploded, transforming into more than a dozen wisps of Immortal Qi.
The old man’s eyes filled with desire as he absorbed it all. After refining it, he trembled and murmured, "Is this the power so pure that even the Demon Realm itself craves it?"
"Delusional Dream, it’s too late. Your gift... it’s far too late."
...
A long time later, the soft murmur was heard again.
"The Spirit Realm and I have reached a point where one of us must perish."
"I will not let the Spirit Realm win so easily. This aura... Immortal Qi? No, an Immortal Qi even purer than Immortal Qi."
"Hehehe."
On Heaven Refining Mountain, a certain Daoist laughed in sudden realization.
