The Immortal Dome Pavilion has started its business again, with Celestial Treasure remnants flowing like water into Wang Xuan’s pockets, all just to exchange for those Top Grade Pills.

Flawless, without Pill Poison or impurities, and almost without side effects after consumption, such Top Grade Pills are fervently sought after by cultivators.

In less than ten days, the young cultivators of Immortal Martial Mountain had run out of Celestial Treasure remnants, leading them to scour everywhere.

They searched in storage nooks, collection rooms, and even went to other Pill Masters to purchase, with some not even sparing their master’s treasury.

“Who made Wang Xuan have such an odd hobby of liking nothing except Celestial Treasures?” complained a third-generation disciple.

“Isn’t it true! Yet purchasing with Celestial Treasure remnants is the cheapest for us, even a third less than buying from other Pill Masters.

If purchased with Spirit Stones or Spirit Crystals, the cost skyrockets. As long as there are Celestial Treasure remnants, who would want to buy with Spirit Stones!” sighed another third-generation disciple.

“I’ve already asked someone to collect Celestial Treasure remnants all over. Some of my senior brothers at second and third-rate sects have connections, and I shamelessly asked them for help.” A third disciple scratched his head, looking distressed.

“You guys can still gather Celestial Treasure remnants from various channels, I don’t have this ability! Now I wish I could pawn the complete Celestial Treasure I have to the Immortal Dome Pavilion to exchange for pills!” cried the fourth third-generation disciple.

They really couldn’t understand how there could be such a Demon Alchemist in the world, whose Top Grade Pills’ output was thirty times that of alchemists of the same level.

What’s more frustrating is that this Demon Alchemist has such a peculiar hobby, making their quest for pills increasingly difficult.

The Top Grade Pills fell into the hands of the third-generation disciples of Immortal Martial Mountain, leaving behind one Celestial Treasure remnant after another. Once the pill sale ended, the steward would deliver them to Wang Xuan.

Seeing the growing number of Celestial Treasure remnants in his hand, Wang Xuan’s mood improved, naturally increasing his motivation to refine pills.

As his Alchemy Technique was slightly pushed, it rose to the peak of a Spirit Tier Pill Master. At this point, Wang Xuan could refine First Grade Pills, and could still achieve results at the Super Grade level!

Further progress would allow him to refine pills for Earth Immortals.

The higher his level of Alchemy Technique, the efficiency of refining Body Refining tier and Spirit Tier Middle Third Grade and Lower Third Grade Pills was naturally imaginable.

Carelessly refining a batch of Vein Strengthening Pills, thirty Top Grade Pills tumbled into the gourd. Wang Xuan stretched lazily and stood up.

The Immortal Dome Pavilion sells two hundred Top Grade Pills daily, requiring him to spend twelve hours refining them, with several batches of Spirit Tier Upper Third Grade Pills taking the most time, though it wasn’t too busy.

“I’ve already mastered over thirty commonly used pill recipes and over fifty uncommon ones, with more than half prepared by Alchemy Seekers themselves.”

By refining pills daily, he could see the Source Power value increasing in tens of thousands, making Wang Xuan naturally very happy.

Though Immortal Martial Mountain had no more Celestial Treasure remnants left, the outside world still did. Whether the seekers of pills could collect them or not was no longer his concern.

He only provided Top Grade Pills, which for him, was as simple as eating and drinking.

“Chun Shui, Qiushui, how’s the floor coming along?”

Wang Xuan walked into the bedroom, where the twin sisters were busy working. They had laid gemstone after gemstone on the bed, already completing half of it.

There was also a layer of emerald green gemstones on the floor, numbering in the thousands, unimaginable in quantity. These were Spirit Stones, tools for Human Immortal cultivators’ practice.

On the bed were Spirit Crystals, which only Earth Immortals could use. Though they were Basic Spirit Crystals, their quantity would likely surpass that of even a Peak of Earth Immortal’s wealth.

Qiushui didn’t even know how to treat such luxurious floors and beds, feeling guilty about stepping on them.

The value of each Spirit Stone surpasses its weight in gold by a hundredfold, yet being used as flooring is naturally astonishing.

“Mountain Lord, isn’t this too extravagant? If Qiushui got a Spirit Stone, she’d wish to hide it like a treasure.

But you lay them on the ground to walk on daily; if others knew, they’d definitely be envious to death.”

Chun Shui nodded: “Indeed, Mountain Lord, I feel like I’m dreaming, as if residing in the Immortal Realm.”

Wang Xuan smiled: “What your Mountain Lord lacks least is Star Yuan, and secondly, it’s these Spirit Stones and Spirit Crystals.”

As the richest among Spirit Tier Pill Masters, his Spirit Stones had already piled up in storage, prompting him to consider opening a Spirit Stone bank at Immortal Martial Mountain.

Lend you ten, and return twelve in a year.

This way, his Spirit Stones would have a purpose and could continuously increase.

After all, he didn’t use a single Spirit Stone for cultivation! Having resources piled up with no flow is wasteful.

Chun Shui and Qiushui gazed at Wang Xuan with admiration, their eyes filled with stars. This was their Mountain Lord, whose charm captivated their attention.

Time flew by, winter had already gripped for many days, the north wind howled, turning the weather colder, leaving Wang Xuan unable to bask in the sun.

Lying on a rattan chair, with a soft pillow supporting his head, Chun Shui’s delicate hands massaged his head while Qiushui kneaded his legs. The two’s strength had grown, finally satisfying Wang Xuan.

The incense burner wafted soothing purple smoke, though the room wasn’t cold, Wang Xuan still built a small fire, reminiscent of his grandfather often doing the same in winter.

“Shuishui, I’ll be going home for a visit to prepare for the New Year,” Wang Xuan said with eyes closed.

The twins had often been referred to as Big Shui and Little Shui by Wang Xuan, but now he simply called them Shuishui.

Though he hadn’t visited home much in recent years, now he was attired in splendor, a dignified return would be something to flaunt.

“Really?” Chun Shui paused for a moment, then said, “I understand.”

Although the festive spirit was weak and traditions had lessened, a family reunion was inevitable. The Mountain Lord came from below the mountain and naturally had to return home for the New Year.

However, Qiushui was quite lively and asked, “Mountain Lord, why don’t you take us with you! My sister and I will take good care of you, wash your feet, massage your legs, hammer your back, and warm your bed.

If we’re not by your side, you’ll surely feel uncomfortable.”

Wang Xuan, although enjoying these indulgent days, still refused: “My home is in the countryside, a very ordinary small place, it’s not suitable to take you back.”

What he wanted was to take Lin Cheng home; she was the intended daughter-in-law for his parents.

Upon hearing this, Chun Shui and Qiushui couldn’t help but show a look of disappointment.

“Mountain Lord, is it because our cultivation level is too low that you’d be embarrassed to take us out? We’ll work hard on our cultivation, and perhaps you’ll take us out some other time?”

These days, Wang Xuan had given the sisters plenty of top-grade pills, and their cultivation had progressed quickly, already reaching the late period of Organ Refining, which was quite impressive.

Qiushui spoke up, and although Chun Shui understood the reason, she did not stop her sister from asking.

“It’s not a matter of cultivation.” Wang Xuan said, “It’s just inappropriate for you to come. If you follow, my parents might see you as the young wives I’ve brought back home.”

“Ah!?” Qiushui blushed with embarrassment, finally understanding why they couldn’t go along.

Chun Shui was somewhat disappointed, thinking how wonderful it would be if they could really go back together.

…

Yue Yiyi had just woken up, and she always slept well. Her master had instructed her to take a Super Grade pill before bed every night, and she slept even better.

The whole night felt like wandering in the Immortal Realm, with both her body and soul extremely comfortable, awakening the next day full of energy.

In her little box, there were thirty or forty Super Grade candy pills, which she exchanged for with a Celestial Grade Early Period Storage Celestial Treasure from Wang Xuan.

Her disciple-nephew, who could refine her favorite candy pills, was naturally a good disciple-nephew, but selling each candy pill at such a high price made her feel like the disciple-nephew should get a scolding from the master.

With the candy pills, she went to the school. Yes, Immortal Martial Mountain had a school that gathered many minors under the age of eighteen.

With peers around, a child’s childhood could be complete, allowing them to play joyfully.

Among the dozens of kids, there was a major difference in ranks. There were those like her—the second generation, direct disciples of Martial Immortal offspring. There were only two or three such individuals, fewest in number but highest in status.

As for the third and fourth generations, whether disciples or the offspring of the second or third generation disciples, they were all arranged to study comprehensive knowledge at the school, from textbooks used by children below the mountain to cultivation material on the mountain.

The children’s lives were rich and vibrant, yet extremely mischievous so that most people couldn’t manage them. Thus, the teachers were usually elders in the True Immortal Realm or second-generation disciples.

These True Immortals would personally come if they had time, or send an incarnation if they were busy, watching over these little brats to prevent any trouble.

In class, Yue Yiyi wasn’t interested at all in what the white-bearded old man was teaching, but her master instructed her not to disturb others even if she didn’t like listening.

“Oh, I really want to sleep.”

Yue Yiyi missed her master, thinking how wonderful it would be to sleep in his arms.

Thinking of sleep brought to mind the candy pill taken before bed, making Yue Yiyi drool with craving, occasionally taking out the box with candy pills.

Next to her was a mischievous five or six-year-old boy, in the naughty phase, highly active with his eyes constantly darting over.

“Eat a piece, have a nice nap, maybe it will be class end by then?” Yue Yiyi thought.

She slightly opened the box, revealing a corner, and took out a Super Grade Bone Tempering Pill, then closed the box.

The gray-black wrapper covering the delicious candy pill was gently split, revealing the milky white Super Grade Bone Tempering Pill. She inhaled deeply as she placed the candy pill in her mouth, no longer opening it again.

It wasn’t long before the little girl fell into a very sweet sleep.

Yet, within that breath’s time, the enticing fragrant aroma of the Super Grade pill, which drew everyone’s attention, had spread throughout the classroom.

Suddenly, all the children became restless, looking around without any interest left in the lesson.

“Where is that smell coming from? It’s so tempting!” They whispered, looking around.

“Quiet!” the white-bearded old man commanded, and although the kids had no further interest, they obediently sat still like clay sculptures.

Finally, enduring until the class was over, the children chatted animatedly.

The mischievous child suddenly sprang up and grabbed Yue Yiyi’s little box, holding it high.

“Yue Yiyi hid something tasty; that fragrance just came from here.” The mischievous child thought he had discovered a secret and proudly announced.

He opened the box and handed out candy pills to his friends one by one.

“Yue Yiyi is so stingy, eating the good stuff alone without sharing with us! Let’s secretly eat up her snacks, that’ll make her angry!”
