According to the Grand Elder, among the three major sects in the Ancient Domain, the chief disciples of Yaochi Ancient Land and Wushuang Buddhist Temple are both at the peak of Saint King and are on the verge of breaking through to Saint Emperor. However, as the chief disciple of the Divine Sect Holy Land, one is only allowed to be stronger than them, not weaker.

Dongfang Mian made repeated promises, almost to the point of swearing an oath, before the elder, who was still preparing to teach Dongfang Mian a lesson, finally left.

"Trying to break through to Saint Emperor within a month is simply a pipe dream. Do you think you have the talent of this Venerable Lord?" Yan Lin, who appeared out of nowhere, said with disbelief.

Dongfang Mian silently repeated three times in his heart that he had lost his memory, that he was now a fool, and that he shouldn't stoop to his level.

Then he took something from the treasure vault of Tianyin Valley and began to refine it.

Yan Lin clearly recognized that the things Dongfang Mian had refined were quite valuable, and said, "You do have some good stuff, but it's still far inferior to what I have. Back in the day, even with your current refinement of the Gale Beads, I was just using them to flick the fruit off the trees."

"Speaking of the fruit in my master's palace, it has quite a history. Have you heard of the Phoenix Tree? It's the fruit that grows from the Phoenix Tree. It contains abundant energy, but with your strength, eating it would probably make you explode from the fullness."

"Furthermore, the fish in the pond of my master's palace are no ordinary fish; they are all sacred beasts. Have you ever heard of the Crimson Demon Carp...?"

Yan Lin's voice, with its own magic, entered Dongfang Mian's ears. Even though she had set up several layers of restrictions, she could still hear it clearly. Helpless, she had no choice but to listen.

"A-Ju," Dongfang Mian called out with her eyes closed.

Aju stood beside Yan Lin, watching his troubled expression.

Yan Lin glanced at it irritably, "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? Why did you call this silly cat over here for no reason?"

Meow~!

Aju suddenly sprang into action, knocking Yan Lin unconscious with a single swipe of her claw.

Phew~ The world is finally quiet, and Dongfang Mian begins her cultivation in peace.

Aju looked at her own claws, feeling like crying. She had become arrogant, daring to fight Rin, even though it was just a clone.

This scene repeats itself every day. If Dongfang Mian weren't so eager to cultivate, she would have asked her master why, not only had she lost half her memory and become bad-tempered, but she had also turned from a cold and aloof person into a chatterbox.

Ah Ju was getting better and better at fighting, thinking that she could definitely brag to her descendants about this for the rest of her life when she got old, that she had defeated the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm, and more than once.

Three days before the one-month deadline, Dongfang Mian successfully entered the Saint Emperor Realm after refining countless rare and precious materials.

In a great mood, she decided to take Yan Lin and A Ju out shopping.

The Divine Sect Holy Land is extremely vast, with the entire sect comparable to a large city. The sect not only has places for cultivation and study, but also auction houses, treasure pavilions, ordinary restaurants, inns, and all the shops that a regular city should have.

The Divine Sect Holy Land is not only inhabited by sect elders and disciples, but also by a group of aristocratic families who rely on the Divine Sect Holy Land for survival.

Dongfang Mian had never properly gone shopping, and Aju seemed completely naive. Only Yan Lin kept complaining about everything he saw.

"This emerald is barely the size of a fingernail, yet people are scrambling to buy it? Back in the day, the emeralds on any piece of clothing I wore were the size of a fist."

"The quality of this Seven Treasures Mica is far too poor. Back in the day, my gauntlets were inlaid with top-grade Seven Treasures Mica, and I had to have two identical sets. If the quality was even slightly different, I wouldn't even look at them."

"..."
