Upon hearing this, Chu Xingze's eyes lit up immediately.
It seems that the wedding night is just around the corner.
"Have you really, really, really thought of a way?" Su Diandian frantically winked at Shan Yunting.
Damn it, damn it, why did they have to bring this news at this time of year?
She was both happy and unhappy.
The good news is that there is finally hope for ascending to the upper realm.
After her eyes darted around a few times, Su Diandian decided to take it one step at a time.
If she's lucky, she might just break through the Heavenly Gate and ascend to heaven, then she won't have to use her body to coax Chu Xingze, this precious baby.
Hahaha……
After a burst of inward laughter, she helped Chu Xingze to his feet and out of the hiding corner.
When Shan Yunting saw the two, his expression changed slightly, but his words were quite intriguing.
"My lady, what are you and Young Master Chu doing?"
"Of course, we'll do what we usually do," Chu Xingze retorted gently.
"Oh? It seems that Young Master Chu often practices with female disciples at Yuheng Palace." Shan Yunting's mouth was not spared either.
"You!" Chu Xingze was speechless, then turned to look at Su Diandian, "Wife, I did not do that kind of thing with the female disciple."
I really want to escape.
Why does she always have to be at these competitive events?
"Didn't you say you found a way to take down the fake sun?" Su Diandian decided to change the subject.
Sure enough, when it came to business, Shan Yunting immediately replied, "My wife, come with me."
The group returned to their temporary lodgings, where Asher and Lucius were already waiting.
Even Meng Che was there.
When Meng Che saw Su Diandian, he quickly explained, "Lisu and Mai Hong had already buried them, so I... I..."
"Okay, fine, just bury it." Su Diandian casually replied, then looked at Shan Yunting again, "Didn't you say you had a way?"
Shan Yunting raised his chin at the Asher brothers, "Weren't you always worried that taking away the fake sun would plunge the spirit world into darkness?"
"The two brothers can use Western magic to create a magic sphere that creates the alternation of day and night."
If the two brothers can successfully create a magic ball that can alternate between day and night, they can directly replace the fake sun.
There is still one problem: how to refine the fake sun and how to extract the necessary substances from it.
Su Diandian had never studied weapon crafting, let alone alchemy.
She looked at Shan Yunting with expectant eyes.
"When I was young, I was somewhat interested in alchemy, but Bei Wudu always outdid me, so I simply gave up on it."
After hearing Shan Yunting's words, she was astonished: "I heard that you were the strongest genius of that generation, how come there is someone who can surpass you?"
Shan Yun rubbed his nose and explained, "Everyone has weaknesses."
Alchemy was his weakness.
Chu Xingze silently raised his hand beside him, "Well, I know a little about alchemy and weapon crafting, but I'm not very proficient at them."
"What level?" Shan Yun asked seriously.
Chu Xingze counted on his fingers, "Weapon refining is at the second level, and alchemy is at the fourth level. Both of these paths test one's spiritual sense, and my spiritual sense isn't strong enough, so..."
"Well, it's barely enough."
And so, Chu Xingze was chosen as the person to refine the fake sun.
Meanwhile, Meng Che also accompanied the Asher brothers as they searched for materials to refine the magic ball.
Chu Xingze and Shan Yunting were both unable to fly in the spirit world, so Su Diandian had no choice but to carry one of them as she rushed into the sky.
The three quickly arrived at the location of the fake sun.
After observing for a while, Chu Xingze concluded, "This core of wood is already burning. All I need to do is activate its own flames and extract its essence."
It sounds simple, but it's extremely difficult to do.
Su Diandian wove a futon out of vines for him to sit cross-legged on, while she and Shan Yunting stood guard to protect him.
Time passed by, minute by minute.
Su Diandian also didn't know what the situation was.
She didn't dare ask, and could only take the handkerchief from Shan Yunting's hand to wipe Chu Xingze's sweat.
The flames of the burning Divine Wood Heart flickered, sometimes large and sometimes small, and the energy within it became extremely unstable.
When Su Diandian probed with her divine sense, it was as if she had encountered an exploding landmine.
After an unknown amount of time, a message came from Meng Che.
The Asher brothers are making progress in creating the magic ball; in another twenty-four hours, they will be able to successfully create a magical artifact that can alter the day and night cycle.
Right now, it all depends on Chu Xingze's progress.
Just as Su Diandian was nervously staring at the fake sun, she suddenly heard a "poof" sound.
Chu Xingze spat out a mouthful of blood, his body swayed, and he fell downwards.
Su Diandian chased after him without hesitation, but was stopped by Shan Yunting. "Continue to extract the energy from the Divine Tree Heart, and I will help you save the person."
After saying that, he jumped down after Chu Xingze.
Only Su Diandian remained on the fake sun's side.
Having neither the skill to forge weapons nor the skill to refine pills, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and proceed.
Come on! Divine sense, carrying spiritual power, instantly burrowed into the fake sun.
She sensed the violent energy spreading out of the fake sun and slowly tried to gather it together with her divine sense.
That's how it should be done, right?
Gather energy, gather it again and again, and finally compress it into essence.
Mom and Dad, brother and sister, please bless her.
May she be blessed with the ability to successfully extract the essence of the Divine Tree Heart and ascend to the Upper Realm.
Su Diandian focused her mind, continuously using her divine sense and spiritual power to compress the energy within the heart of the divine tree.
Finally, the enormous mass of energy condensed into a single egg-sized ball.
But it's not enough, not enough.
"Press it down again!" As she shouted, thunderclouds began to gather in the sky.
However, there seemed to be some force in the air that suppressed the thunderclouds, preventing the lightning from condensing and taking shape.
Su Diandian could feel a swelling pain in her dantian, which was a sign that she was about to advance from the Nascent Soul stage to the Tribulation Transcending stage.
But without Lei Yun's arrival, he cannot advance to the next level.
A fine layer of sweat seeped from Su Diandian's forehead, but it was instantly evaporated by the heat of the Divine Wood Heart.
Thundercloud, Heart of the Divine Tree, Tian Dan...
All three parties are in a state of frustration.
It's painful, it's painful, but I need to break through!
"Ah! Press down!" Su Diandian shouted softly, pouring all her spiritual power into the heart of the divine tree.
The energy cluster, the size of an egg, finally stirred again.
A single, clear drop of liquid dripped from the energy cluster, followed by a second, then a third…
By the sixth drop, the energy cluster began to weaken.
"One more! Again!" Su Diandian used her last bit of strength to squeeze out the seventh drop of liquid.
At the same time, the Heart of the Sacred Tree was completely burned to ashes.
After the ashes scattered, seven drops of clear liquid remained suspended in front of her.
The name of the liquid came to her mind.
The origin of immortality.
The reason why no one in the cultivation world can ascend to immortality is precisely because they lack the essence of immortality.
Su Diandian used her divine sense to send a drop of immortal essence into her forehead, causing an extremely invigorating energy to explode outwards.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the sky, and thunderclouds gathered within it, forming a sea of lightning.
Supporting Chu Xingze, Shan Yunting looked up at the sky and murmured, "It's the Thunder Pool, the Heavenly Gate, it's opened..."
