"I think it's all over. No one has realized that Immortal Haoyue is now suffering from inner demons."
"A spy drama? That's something else."
The progress bar was still moving, and no one in the Immortal Realm noticed the changes in Immortal Haoyue. Or perhaps the inner demon was disguised too well, almost indistinguishable from the original Immortal Haoyue.
At this very moment, the immortal from Laiwu was about to descend to the mortal realm with his little ink-wielding boy for training.
There are generally only two reasons why immortals descend to the mortal realm for trials: one is that they have encountered a bottleneck in their cultivation and need to break through it through trials; the other is that there are too many petitions from the mortal realm, so they have to send out more people.
The descent of the Immortal Laiwu to the mortal realm for training falls into the latter category. Recently, the Laiwu Palace has received far too many petitions addressed to the Immortal Laiwu. The Laiwu Palace can only send a limited number of minor immortals to the mortal realm, so the Immortal Laiwu has no choice but to personally intervene.
"Your little apprentice?" Immortal Shangyuan nudged Immortal Laiwu with his elbow. The two had known each other before they became immortals; they were good friends from a private school.
"Yes." The Immortal from Laiwu replied expressionlessly.
"It doesn't look like it to me." Shangyuan Immortal looked at the egret chatting with the curious maids in the courtyard, noticed the similar style of clothing, and then looked at his friend who had been occasionally distracted by the other person. This didn't seem like an ordinary master and disciple at all.
However, since he saw through it all, he chose to remain silent.
"Here's what you wanted." After handing over several maps and a box, Shangyuan Immortal said, "Alright, alright, you and your master should go now. My beauties are still waiting for me."
Immortal Laiwu led Bailu away from Immortal Shangyuan's residence. Once the two had gone some distance, Bailu whispered, "Why isn't Immortal Shangyuan in the Immortal Realm? And he's different from all the other immortals."
The immortal from Laiwu said calmly, "He dislikes the immortal realm, finding it bland and boring. He prefers the mortal world's hustle and bustle and the beauty of women, so his cultivation has remained stagnant."
Bailu nodded after listening. She felt that if it were her, she would probably prefer the mortal realm and not want to go to the celestial realm. The celestial realm was indeed beautiful, but... thinking of the smiling maids who handed her pastries and snacks and told her many interesting stories, the mortal realm felt more humane. Of course, the immortals in the celestial realm were all very kind, but there was still some distance between them, after all, there was a difference in their magical cultivation.
"Where are we going now?" the egret asked, kicking a stone away from the roadside.
"We're almost there. The village is just ahead." The immortal from Laiwu stopped. Actually, the two of them could have ridden on cranes, but the immortal from Laiwu seemed to prefer traveling at a leisurely pace.
"Did they run into some trouble?" Bai Lu blinked. She had heard in the celestial realm that mortals liked to petition the immortals whenever they encountered trouble, big or small.
"Just a nightmare." The immortal from Laiwu spoke in a calm tone, but he didn't tell the egret, who was still excited, that the origin of this nightmare was rather strange.
Nightmares are born from people's worries and are usually quickly eroded by the spiritual energy of the mortal world. They only affect two or three people before they disappear. However, if the entire village is trapped in a nightmare, it means that the nightmare has not only escaped the erosion of spiritual energy, but is also very likely to devour spiritual energy and strengthen itself.
"Nightmare?" The egret tilted its head and thought for a moment. "Ah, I spend my time in books. They create nightmares, which can be caught with dreamcatchers."
"Indeed, but mortal dreamcatchers are actually useless. A dreamcatcher that can truly catch nightmares must be woven with silver threads woven by the celestial weavers, and supplemented with the tail feathers of spirit birds and the spirit pearls from the bottom of the clear pool."
The egret said incredulously, "But these... these things are extremely rare!" Even if the Weaver Girls wove millions of bolts of cloth, they might not be able to weave silver threads. Spirit birds can live for tens of thousands of years, but their tail feathers can only be taken after the spirit bird dies. As for the spirit pearl at the bottom of the clear pool, it is formed by the gathering of spiritual energy and cannot be formed in just a few thousand years.
"Yes, there are only two dream catchers in the world that can capture nightmares, and both are located in the Laiwu Palace."
Bai Lu blinked, realizing that Laiwu Palace was such an extraordinary place.
"Wow, this is impressive! The immortal is indeed a big shot."
"I stared into thought as I looked at the dreamcatcher I bought for 20 yuan on Taobao by my bedside."
"Everyone, we've leveled up by defeating monsters. Forget about the Dreamcatcher; I'll take the experience from this Nightmare."
"You must have been playing games like crazy earlier, hahaha."
"Can someone tell me what's happening in the Immortal Realm? Could the Demon Moon be using this opportunity to destroy it?"
"No... really? They're going to attack without any preparation?"
"Probably not, otherwise what would they show next?"
"Or perhaps the immortal realm is destroyed, the master and disciple survive, rise again, and seek revenge. Wow, that's pretty exciting!"
"No, it's very passionate."
Although everyone was eager to know what would happen next, the second episode's progress bar had already reached its limit, leaving everyone with a huge cliffhanger that kept them thinking about it in bed at night.
The premiere of "The Immortal" received rave reviews. The sweet moments in just two episodes were enough to support a bunch of fans who ship the couple for 500 yuan each. Ye Chu's Weibo was no longer filled with comments like "Mom loves you" or "Mom supports you," but instead, it was dominated by fans of the couple shouting "500 yuan!" And Ye Chu was that 100 yuan.
"What's going on? Mom Ye's comment somehow ended up here?"
"Many of the Mama Ye fans have become fans of the 500 Yuan CP, and the Mama Ye family is in imminent danger."
"Emergency situation, Level 1 alert! Mother Ye and her family must be defended!"
"I admit that 500 yuan is sweet, but it's fine for the official Weibo account of the TV series to post it, but please don't post it under the actors' personal Weibo posts, okay?"
"It's alright, the Ye family doesn't have that many rules, as long as it's not excessive."
"Five hundred yuan is too sweet, I want to climb over the wall."
"Sister who's switching sides, you're a fan of the Yu Chu CP, right? Your profile picture has already exposed you, please stop right now!"
On the film set.
The crew is filming indoor scenes.
"Wow, Rou Rou, aren't you asleep yet?" Guan Fei asked, rubbing her eyes and yawning. He Rou, sleeping on the bed opposite her, still had her phone screen lit up, seemingly continuing her flower-digging project.
Then look at my two other roommates who were also dragged into this mess; they're currently playing the game too.
"No, you can't let playthings distract you from your studies. Even though you don't have to get up early tomorrow, you have an exam in the afternoon, right?"
He Rou and the other two sat up from the bed.
"Well, we finished reviewing while you were taking a nap this afternoon."
"Hmm, I even did a set of exercises."
"Absolutely no problem."
Guan Fei was instantly wide awake, her eyes widening in disbelief as she exclaimed, "You guys are studying behind my back?!"
He Rou replied softly, "We tried to wake you up to study, but you were fast asleep."
Guan Fei pouted. Well, she had to admit she was always a heavy sleeper.
With no other option, Guan Fei, being the only one in the dorm who needed to study the next morning, decided to go to sleep as soon as possible.
He Rou lay back down on the bed. In the game, her character was sitting in front of her alchemy furnace, doing strange things. The screen displayed: In progress...
Her professional level is already 8, and now she can sell some high-priced medicines.
