“The grass on my dad’s grave is taller than I am!”

“You’re not that short,” Shangguan Yu murmured.

After learning Shangguan Yu’s identity, Uncle Ba’s eyes lit up and patted Qiu Jin’an on the shoulder, “From now on, you can call me Old Ba.”

“Get lost!” Qiu Jin’an shook off Uncle Ba’s hand. Seek Dao Sect indeed wasn’t a place for him to stay for long, he had vented a lifetime of anger on the sect.

“Qiu, I think Seek Dao Sect is quite fun. It’s rare for us to visit, why don’t we stay a few more days?” Shangguan Yu suggested.

Qiu Jin’an took Shangguan Yu, turned around without looking back, and left by boat.

Shangguan Yu kept talking incessantly, “I’ve been educating you since you were young. Don’t lose your temper, stay cool when dealing with things, and be calm. Look at you, you’re a grown-up now, but you’re still quick to anger even as a Sect Leader. It’s not good…”

Qiu Jin’an kept sullenly silent without responding.

Shangguan Yu wiped her tears, “My son has grown up, he’s starting to be disobedient.”

Out of helplessness, Qiu Jin’an responded, “Mom, can you stop acting like a child?”

“What’s wrong with being a child? Your father liked me this way.”

“I…” Qiu Jin’an stammered at a loss for words, unsure of how his father ended up falling for his mother in the first place.

On the flying boat, Qiu Jin’an assigned the task, “Everyone, write a two-thousand words reflection on this visit to Seek Dao Sect. It must include introspection, self-reflection, and the next steps. Hand it to me tomorrow!”

At once, protesting cries filled the air.

…

At the entrance gate of Seek Dao Sect, Uncle Ba waved goodbye to the flying boat in relaxed contentment, “What do you think, do I have a chance with Shangguan Yu?”

The Grand Elder looked Uncle Ba up and down dismissively, “Even I’m more handsome than you, yet you dare to chase after her?”

The Third Elder sighed sagely, “Second Brother, I don’t mind you switching the generation, but I’m afraid Master won’t agree to it. He is suppressing Captive Peak, perhaps he won’t need your help.”

The elders strictly adhered to a tradition of kicking a man when he is down, each convincing Uncle Ba to not be too desperate.

“Get lost!” Uncle Ba roared in anger. What kind of brothers are these? They couldn’t say a single nice word.

“Let’s go, let’s go have a look at the high-ranking members of Eternity Sect we’ve captured.” said Grand Elder, stating the important matter that needed to be handled urgently.

The disciples at Seek Dao Sect were gathered around the high-ranking members of Eternity Sect at the Martial Arts Square, pointing and gawking at them like they were rare creatures.

This time we were not able to capture all of the Eternity Sect members who infiltrated the Seek Dao Sect; two Rudder Masters and a sect patriarch are still at large, disguising as disciples of Seek Dao Sect.

Lu Yang held the Dream Pillow, looking it over from left to right, fascinated.

This was his first time seeing immortal treasures.

The Dream Pillow was a porcelain pillow-shaped artifact, the porcelain was turquoise in color, and an open green lotus was painted on it with colored glaze.

“Is this the Dream Pillow that Little Lu talked about?” The Grand Elder and others came over, very interested in the immortal treasure.

“Here, let me study it,” the Grand Elder took the Dream Pillow. His special expertise was in dreams, so he was very interested in this kind of item that could force people to sleep.

The Grand Elder tried to input a thread of spiritual essence to activate the immortal treasure, but the spiritual essence sank like a stone in the sea. The Dream Pillow showed no response.

“This is interesting,” said the Grand Elder, now more curious about how to operate the Dream Pillow.

Yun Zhi wanted to share how to use it with the Grand Elder, but seeing his excitement, she ultimately kept mum.

Let the Grand Elder figure it out on his own.

Despite using various methods, Grand Elder failed to activate the Dream Pillow, and he was a bit frustrated.

“How do you use this thing?”

Vice Sect Leader Gao, the prisoner at the foot of the stage, laughed when he saw this, “Stupid, this is a treasure of our sect. How could mundane people like you be qualified to use this item?”

While the Grand Elder was still studying, Vice Sect Leader Gao was laughing at him. The five high-ranking members of Eternity Sect would occasionally let out strange, mocking laughter.

Finally, the Grand Elder could no longer bear it. He picked up the porcelain pillow and heavily hit Vice Sect Leader Gao on the head with it, causing him to instantly fall asleep.

“So that’s how you use immortal treasures.” the Grand Elder mused, now knowing how to use the Dream Pillow.

Yun Zhi could no longer contain herself and reminded him, “Grand Elder, if you form a green lotus on the back of the pillow with spiritual essence just like the one in the front, you will be able to activate the pillow.”

“So that’s how it is.”

Grand Elder formed a green lotus on the back of the pillow with spiritual essence and then hit another high-ranking member of Eternity Sect on the head, causing the person to immediately fall asleep.

“It’s actually quite handy.”

Grand Elder returned the pillow to Lu Yang, and Lu Yang tried using it as Eldest Senior Sister directed. However, it didn’t react at all.

Fairy Eternity scoffed, “Do you really think you can activate my treasure with your Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation?”

Unsure of what to do, Lu Yang handed the pillow over to his Eldest Senior Sister for her to deal with.

Yun Zhi orderly formed an imprint with one hand. The imprint slowly seeped into the Dream Pillow, and after it disappeared, she handed the pillow to the Grand Elder.

“Grand Elder, you’re the best in our Sect at using dream arts. This item can be the most effective in your hands. I have left an imprint on the pillow, so even if someone else steals it, I can track it down.”

The Grand Elder was both surprised and delighted. He thanked Yun Zhi profusely. This was an extremely precious immortal treasure. Having it would significantly boost his combat ability.

He was already the most formidable in the Unification Stage. With this immortal treasure, he would become an invincible existence in the Unification Realm. Daoist Buyu would have to be careful, lest he fall for his traps!

Yun Zhi then recited an ancient phrase, asking the Grand Elder to remember it. She said that if he recited this phrase when using the Dream Pillow, it would increase the latter’s power.

The Grand Elder, out of curiosity, asked Yun Zhi if she knew the meaning of this ancient phrase.

Yun Zhi made a weird face and told the Grand Elder it would be better if he didn’t know the meaning of the phrase.

“Why is your pillow named Dream Pillow?” Lu Yang asked Fairy Eternity.

“Is it because, when you were cooking rice porridge, you lied on the pillow and fell asleep, living out your life in the dream. When you woke up, the porridge was still not cooked? I remember a certain legend was like this.”

Fairy Eternity nodded, “Your guess is pretty close.”

“That was when the pillow had just been refined, and I invited Ying Tian Immortal and others over for a meal. The main dish was rice porridge. At the time, I was thinking about other things, and the rice porridge got overcooked and started to bubble up and looked as if it was going to spill out.”

“This is when I remembered something Jiuchong Immortal said. When doing experiments, if the liquid starts to boil, throw a few broken porcelain pieces in, and it won’t boil over.”

“I didn’t have any broken porcelain on hand, only the porcelain pillow. So I threw the pillow into the rice porridge. When I scooped it out, the pillow was covered with rice porridge. Hence, it was named Dream Pillow.”

Lu Yang: “…”

Does this have anything to do with what I guessed?

“Then, after you threw it in, did the porridge spill over?” Lu Yang was concerned about the aftermath.

“It didn’t.”

Just as Lu Yang was about to compliment that this method was reliable, Fairy Eternity continued, “I used too much force and broke the pot.”

Fairy Eternity looked a little scared, “Thankfully Ying Tian Immortal and the others stood me up. Otherwise, if there was no staple food for the meal, I would have been so embarrassed.”

It’s said that immortals can avoid disasters, and it seems the saying held true.
