She was a Spirit Cultivator released from her previous state, with overall strength equivalent to Wang Jixuan during the early Unification Realm. Even if she encountered ordinary Unification Realm cultivators, she could ensure a stable victory.

Compared to Amina, Gao Huating, dressed in loose jeans paired with a long sweater, looked much more at home.

Mu Dan had once again donned her classic maid outfit.

The Queen returned to her old profession.

In the foreseeable future, apart from commanding the tens of thousands of high-level special Mechanical Bodies within this subspace, there would likely be no more opportunities to command a grand fleet.

After all, they were about to head towards a world where only cultivation existed.

Zheng Shiduo, the only man left here besides Wang Jixuan, calmly put on makeup for himself.

Lao Zheng understood how to avoid suspicion.

The residence he chose for himself was right near the entrance, far away from these 'female companions'.

Hmm... he also didn't like playing with girls.

The Red Snake was even more casual, wearing pajamas with a sleep mask on her forehead, looking completely drowsy, muttering:

"Why are we having a meeting? People need to hibernate, you know, hibernate."

These travelers had already left their harbor, but for now, they could only hide inside Old Sophie's subspace.

For this reason, sufficient supplies had been prepared here.

Thanks to the development of Star Domain expedition technology, they now had specially made cans that could be stored for decades, nutritionally balanced and with varied flavors.

Old Sophie's ashes were already cool, and Wang Jixuan decided to rename this place.

Master Wang's secret garden?

This name seemed a bit too ambiguous.

Let's call it [Between Spiritual Energies], as Amina and the Red Snake respectively represent the pinnacles of two Spiritual Power Technologies.

Wang Jixuan announced this decision on the spot, and everyone nodded.

"Just a name change? That's the content of the meeting?" The Red Snake pouted immediately.

Wang Jixuan clicked his tongue: "Keep complaining and you'll be punished by not being allowed to sleep for a month!"

"Teacher~ Snake admits her mistake~"

The Red Snake blinked repeatedly, her voice coquettish.

Wang Jixuan brushed off the goosebumps on his arm, then his expression turned serious, and he said softly:

"All of you following me from now on, our destinies will be shared. If one prospers, we all prosper; if one falls, we all fall.

"Among us, there's no need for such polite words, yet I still want to say a few simple things."

Zheng Shiduo chuckled: "Brother Wang, you can be polite?"

"Of course," Wang Jixuan cleared his throat, "I hope all of you can unite and help each other, trust one another, so that if I ever set foot in the Immortal Realm, I'll do my best to bring you along, if you're willing."

Gao Huating asked suspiciously: "Teacher, didn't you always say the Immortal Realm requires Ascension?"

"That's the normal route."

Wang Jixuan was quite emotional:

"In this world, there are loopholes we can't even imagine. Nothing is impossible.

"Tianluo and the Dark Sect can select some elite talents every once in a while, allowing them to enter the Immortal Realm for cultivation without undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation.

"Ascending to the Immortal Realm is like a selection process; those who make it are Immortals.

"But not everyone in the Immortal Realm is an Immortal; most beings aren't. Cultivation there is much easier than outside.

"The Immortal Realm, True Realm, Xu Realm, Endless Star Sea, it truly is a ladder to the heavens."

Zheng Shiduo laughed: "I've been wanting to say, isn't this just one big Fortress?"

"More or less," Amina said softly, "it's indeed a hierarchically defined system."

Wang Jixuan flicked his fingers lightly, and the Moonlight Sword fell in front of him, vibrating gently.

Wang Jixuan handed this Immortal Sword to Amina, instructing: "This is an Immortal Artifact. Even if you can't activate it, you can use it to slay powerful foes. Later, you'll carry it. If we encounter enemies, you might need to ambush them at a critical moment."

"Okay."

Amina took the Moonlight Sword, carefully sensing the fluctuations of power on it.

Unexpectedly, she actually felt a slight resonance between the Law Fragment her Core Circuit controlled and the Moonlight Sword.

Amina looked at Master Wang in surprise.

Wang Jixuan nodded with a smile.

This wasn't a gift of the sword; the Immortal Artifact was a shared resource within his small team.

Wang Jixuan also didn't want to overly rely on such an Immortal Artifact. Unless it was a matter of life or death, neither Amina nor the Immortal Artifact would appear.

The Daoist continued: "About a month and a half later, we'll arrive at one of Tianluo's branch halls. I've inquired; Tianluo has six branch halls. We're only going to one, and only the Tianluo Main Hall has a path to the Immortal Realm."

Zheng Shiduo asked: "Should we prepare some gifts to grease the wheels?"

"We'll play it by ear when it comes to that."

Wang Jixuan chuckled awkwardly:

"I'm not very good at this, but, when under someone's roof, it's better to bow your head. I've made some preparations as well.

"Later, I'll place the stone plate that serves as the subspace entrance and exit on the storage ring of my finger. I've carved new prohibitions on this ring so that you can sense what's happening outside.

"If there's anything you need to remind me of, just go ahead and say it.

"Generally speaking, unless an Immortal shows up, it's unlikely anyone would detect your presence."

— A Artifact Refining Master's confidence.

Wang Jixuan reminded everyone a few more times, essentially just giving them a heads-up.

He was rather worried that if they saw him being wronged or threatened on the Tianluo side, they'd jump out to fight back impulsively.

After all, he's always been quite respected on Earth.

Wang Jixuan had thoroughly prepared himself for such a mindset.

In his heart, Earth is devoid of cultivators, and he's about to travel to a world comprised of cultivators. He isn't particularly special; he just possesses some resources and has three lifetimes of cultivation experience, having created strange things like the core circuit... and so on.

Wang Jixuan looked at Gao Huating and smiled, saying, "Later, you will act as my senior disciple and engage in normal activities. I'll be overseeing your cultivation lessons, so don't be lazy."

"Oh," Xiao Huating obediently agreed.

Mu Dan, who had been kneeling obediently at the side, cautiously asked, "Boss, can I activate my Poison Tongue system now? There aren't any cultivators around here anyway."

"Go ahead, just not too aggressively."

"Okay then..."

Mu Dan rolled her eyes playfully and muttered softly:

"These Heavenly Net guys definitely won't punish you. They simply want to extort the value from your body, but don't get all worked up and give away all the core circuit technology. That would really leave no leverage."

"No way," Daoist Wang glared, "Would I get worked up?"

"Who knows."

Mu Dan chuckled:

"That fellow Hui Zhi is truly a beauty; when she took you to the cabin to rest earlier, her eyes were practically glued to you.

"If you ask me, officer, you might as well put a fake scar on your face. Being too handsome truly attracts too much attention."

Amina appeared displeased.

Wang Jixuan cleared his throat: "Mu Dan, stop talking nonsense. This fellow is simply receiving quite a few benefits from us here."

Amina then added, "If utilizing a beauty trap would help our situation, I actually wouldn't mind. Our spirit cultivation civilization is quite open-minded at heart."

"I mind!"

Daoist Wang lifted his hand and rubbed his temples:

"Let's not entertain such thoughts. Our goal is to cultivate, establish ourselves in Tianluo, and return to Earth to resolve issues with Blade Beasts and Hei Yao, among others. We mustn't leave things half-done."

"Alright then, today's small meeting will conclude here. Amina, come with me."

"Hm?"

Amina was a bit taken by surprise, but the others had a knowing look.

Only Red Snake couldn't help but mutter, "Well, just said goodbye to my Tongtong and now feeling youthful again."

Wang Jixuan: ...

There was no way to respond to that.

He did indeed have serious business with Amina.

A moment later, at the top of the spire.

Wang Jixuan, along with Amina, dismantled Old Sophie's coffin and transformed the space into a movable square platform.

"You're planning to give this thing away?" Amina asked.

"Yes, it contains many spiritual energy circuits, but they're all for communication and healing. I can't just hand over a core circuit outright, even though I brought three."

Daoist Wang stretched lazily, glancing contentedly at his handiwork.

Amina gathered the residual parts into one pile, sitting prettily at the platform's edge. She removed her hairpin, letting her slightly curled long hair fall.

Her bright eyes gazed at Wang Jixuan as she softly inquired, "Regarding that Hui Zhi..."

"I can't even recall Hui Zhi's exact appearance right now," Wang Jixuan explained with a wry smile, "And honestly, I'm not considering looking for a partner at this moment. Our agreement is definitely still valid."

Damn it! Mu Dan is definitely doing this on purpose!

He must find a chance to properly discipline her Mechanical Soul!

Amina nodded slightly and was just about to say something when a gentle call suddenly echoed inside the spire's space.

It was the voice brought by the Alien Soul Wang Jixuan left outside.

"Brother Wang? May I come in?"

Ah, Loose Person Hui Zhi.
