Truly buried!

Wang Jixuan initially thought Senior Bai Gu's mention of 'burial' was a rhetorical device, but unexpectedly...

It was literal action!

He donned the alloy battle armor specially crafted for him by Mu Dan, feeling like, well, a pharaoh's coffin from Earth's Golden Age films.

"Why am I wearing this thing?"

"Oh, for safety!"

Mu Dan and Amina pressed Wang Jixuan from both sides, briskly helping him put on the armor.

Mu Dan grinned mischievously: "Sixteen thousand years is too long. My main consciousness will accompany you into deep sleep to avoid confusion that could cause disaster. This armor also has a positioning function, so when I want to sleep, I'll hide in it!"

"Exactly," Amina, in her petite form, said worriedly, "For those of us not sleeping, we'll be whisked to the present world with a blink, following Senior Bai Gu. Who knows what might happen in those sixteen thousand years?"

Wang Jixuan chuckled and gently pinched her cheek.

Xiao Na pouted, feeling slightly upset.

She also wanted to join Wang Jixuan in deep sleep.

— She had just tasted sweet love for five or six years, so she was naturally worried if Wang Jixuan would forget her after sixteen thousand years.

But no one knew if the life span of a spirit cultivator increased with strength advancement.

If it didn't, Amina would only have tens of thousands of years left, and sleeping for sixteen thousand years would waste a third of her life.

Mao Mo and Zheng Shiduo faced the same situation.

Mao Mo was a Loose Immortal, with no further path, and Senior Bai Gu didn't have the leisure to help him continue on the Immortal Road.

Zheng Shiduo was still a spirit cultivator, waiting for Master Wang to upgrade his core circuit, so his life span couldn't be wasted asleep.

Red Snake and Gao Huating, however, could enjoy this wave of benefits.

Red Snake counted as a demon cultivator, and Gao Huating was a proper cultivator; they too would be buried by Senior Bai Gu later.

However, the time they could be buried mustn't be too long, at most two or three thousand years before resurfacing.

Whether Xiao Huating could become immortal was uncertain;

But Red Snake, after this 'burial', stood an eighty percent chance of becoming a Great Demon comparable to a Primordial Immortal.

"Will we be by the teacher's side later too?" Xiao Huating asked softly.

From the corner came the laughter of Senior Bai Gu:

"Not exactly so; your teacher's Dao leans towards wood, so I will eventually place him in a rich locale of the Wood Dao, your Dao leans towards water, and Red Snake's demon path leans towards Blood Evil, I will find you each a treasure ground."

Mu Dan muttered softly: "I always feel that this senior enjoys nurturing games."

"Watch your tongue!"

Wang Jixuan glared at Mu Dan:

"Show respect to seniors!"

"Oh, he's not exactly a benevolent senior."

"In what way am I not benevolent?"

Bai Gu laughed and scolded:

"Indeed, I do have the intention to cultivate you for convenience to settle accounts with the Beast God Palace later, but I've taken good care of you all."

"Is that so?"

Mu Dan nudged spectacles that didn't exist:

"Senior, your self-awareness has grown stronger recently, self-claiming 'this seat' instead of 'I' or 'poor Daoist,' suggesting you're gradually reverting to a superior's mindset.

"In those days, you were a challenger of the Immortal Realm, and now you're possibly becoming the old rule to be challenged.

"This is something to watch out for."

"Go, go, go, I can't out-talk you."

Bai Gu murmured, then fell silent.

By this time, Wang Jixuan had put on this miniature mecha-like protective suit, and with difficulty, sat up, looking at Mu Dan, then the corner.

Was it his illusion?

In recent years, he increasingly felt Senior Bai Gu seemed to be wary of Mu Dan.

"Mu Dan?"

"Yes?"

Wang Jixuan's gaze was somewhat suspicious.

Mu Dan's big Kazi-Lan eyes instantly filled with innocence and harmlessness.

"Ahem," Wang Jixuan returned to the topic, "Let's stick to what we discussed at the meeting before, I, Red Snake, Xiao Huating find respective places to sleep, others go to the present world to wait for us, any issues?"

Red Snake coolly folded her arms and asked: "Didn't they say, at the same time point, only one of me can exist? If I sleep over... will there be a problem?"

"No," Senior Bai Gu responded slowly, "I will merely place you near the Dao, using formations and barriers to isolate your sleeping selves from this world."

Red Snake nodded: "Then it's fine for me."

Xiao Na raised her hand beside her: "What about the specific meeting point in the present world for us?"

Senior Bai Gu said: "Ask your man, this can be flexible."

Wang Jixuan stroked his chin thoughtfully, slowly saying: "The time point we start from, is twenty years after the death of Linglong Fairy."

Mu Dan puzzled: "Why twenty years? Isn't seamless transition better?"

"It's not quite feasible," Wang Jixuan smiled, "At that time, the Palace Master of Beast God Palace had a confrontation with Senior Bai Gu, a Daluo Golden Immortal duel, would certainly cause some turmoil."

Bai Gu laughed: "That wouldn't happen, Daluo's duels are generally kept secret, they wouldn't possibly announce to the world that the owner of Moon God Palace didn't die and achieved the Immortal Dao Fruit."

Wang Jixuan said: "In any case, it's best to avoid their limelight."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Xiao Na murmured softly: "I'll miss you, what to do."

"You can ask Senior Bai Gu to take you directly to the time point we reunite."

Bai Gu in the corner said: "That's not possible, I can only traverse the past, utilizing the gaps in the Time Dao and Karma Dao, at most bringing you back to the present world."

"Twenty years isn't too long, it's alright."

Xiao Na gently stroked Master Wang's 'mecha', whispering:

"Remember to take care of yourself, don't be too eager for success, the cultivation path is long, seeking revenge against the Heavenly Dao should not be rushed."
