On the vast land of the Divine Realm, towering temples rise majestically, each exuding an ancient aura that chronicles countless years of history and legacy.
At this moment, every deity in the Divine Realm is dressed in pristine white uniforms, symbolizing their faith and allegiance to the Eternal Life Sect.
They stand solemnly, resembling the guardians of heaven and earth.
Inside the Ice God Palace, a world of ice and snow stretches out, with palaces as pale as jade.
The towering structures formed of ice sparkle brilliantly under the sunlight.
Now seated on the high throne of the Supreme God King is Shui Bing'er, the embodiment of beauty and grace, resembling an ice goddess, with a realm of icy wonders behind her that underscores her supreme authority and majesty.
Important figures from the Divine Realm, including Qian Renxue, Feng Xiaotian, Ye Lengleng, and Yu Tianxin, kneel before Shui Bing'er, respectfully reporting on the state of the Divine Realm.
"Your Majesty, the energy flow and resource supply in the Divine Realm have been steadily increasing. The repair and construction of temples in various locations are proceeding in an orderly fashion. The teachings of the Eternal Life Sect have deeply rooted themselves in the hearts of the believers, who hold a reverent awe, ensuring success in all endeavors," Qian Renxue reports respectfully.
"Indeed, Your Majesty. Ever since you and Elder Shouxu took charge of the Divine Realm, our power has grown stronger, and we have made significant progress in various fields. The harmony and prosperity of the Divine Realm are entirely due to the wise leadership of the Eternal Life Sect," Feng Xiaotian adds.
Shui Bing'er nods slightly, her gaze sweeping over everyone as she assesses their demeanor.
Yu Tianxin respectfully adds, "Your Majesty, the divine energy flow in various regions remains stable, and the production of divine energy crystals is on the rise. The followers of the Eternal Life Sect are wholeheartedly contributing their efforts."
With a slight smile, Shui Bing'er turns her gaze to the horizon, her thoughts drifting as she says, "The Divine Realm is our shared home. We must maintain unity; with the strength and faith of the Eternal Life Sect, we will surely safeguard the peace of the Divine Realm."
In response, everyone echoes, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Then, her gaze falls on the empty throne beside her, and a wave of melancholy washes over her.
This throne once belonged to Shui Wuya, and his absence makes the seat feel exceedingly vacant.
Although Shui Wuya has been gone for a short time, for Shui Bing'er, every moment feels as lengthy as millions of years.
Her gaze extends to the edge of the Divine Realm, silently calling out Shui Wuya's name, wondering where he is and what circumstances he faces.
The other deities present sense Shui Bing'er's longing.
Feng Xiaotian, Ye Lengleng, and others step forward to reassure her, saying, "You need not worry too much; Elder Shouxu possesses great power and will surely manage any challenges, turning peril into safety."
Shui Bing'er nods slightly, gratefully regarding them, yet her inner worry remains unresolved.
Meanwhile, Qian Renxue lifts her head, gazing into the distance of the Divine Realm, her eyes also reflecting her longing for Shui Wuya.

In the Dou Po World.
Within the Xiao family estate, a tranquil atmosphere envelops Xiao Xun'er's chamber.
The room is simply yet elegantly decorated, with jade embellishments and embroidered curtains exuding a subtle fragrance.
Xiao Xun'er sits calmly on her bed, eyes closed in meditation as she concentrates on her cultivation, listening intently to Ling Ying's report.
Ling Ying stands respectfully before Xiao Xun'er, her tone slightly anxious as she reports, "Miss, Xiao Yan took the money you gave him to buy medicinal herbs; it seems he intends to learn alchemy. I can't shake the feeling that this is somewhat unusual."
Xiao Xun'er opens her eyes slightly, replying calmly, "If he has this intention, he must have his own plans. I trust him."
Ling Ying furrowed her brow, her tone laced with concern. "Miss, I feel this situation isn't simple. Xiao Yan doesn't seem as naive as he appears; he might have ulterior motives."
Xiao Xun'er shook her head, her expression resolute. "I trust Brother Xiao Yan. From now on, you are not to follow him without my permission."
"Understood."
Seeing Xiao Xun'er's determination, Ling Ying reluctantly acquiesced.
In her heart, she couldn't help but think, "If I don't follow him, what if that kid leads you astray?"
Meanwhile.
In Xiao Yan's room, a faint herbal fragrance filled the air, with a dan furnace and various vividly colored herbs laid out on the table.
Xiao Yan stood by the furnace, holding an alchemy manual and closely following the guidance of Yao Lao.
Yao Lao observed the herbs and the furnace from the side, occasionally offering detailed instructions.
"The first step in alchemy is to familiarize yourself with the properties and uses of various herbs," Yao Lao said earnestly.
He picked up a piece of Qingzhu grass, explaining, "This is Qingzhu grass; it has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, playing an important auxiliary role in refining healing pills."
Xiao Yan carefully examined the Qingzhu grass, memorizing its characteristics.
Yao Lao continued, "When refining healing pills, you must master the timing and the combination of herbs, maintaining focus and meticulousness."
Xiao Yan nodded, striving to stay alert and composed.
Yao Lao instructed, "Next, ignite the furnace and control the heat, adding the herbs into the furnace one by one."
Following Yao Lao's directions, Xiao Yan lit the furnace, cautiously managing the heat.
He added the prepared herbs into the furnace, taking great care with each step.
Seeing Xiao Yan's serious demeanor, Yao Lao smiled encouragingly. "Keep this focus; don't rush, and everything will go smoothly."
Xiao Yan concentrated on the changes inside the furnace, adjusting the heat and his technique according to the temperature and state of the herbs.
The herbs within the furnace began to melt slowly, releasing a gentle fragrance. Beads of sweat formed on Xiao Yan's forehead as he focused intently.
Yao Lao observed Xiao Yan's performance, nodding in satisfaction. "Very good, maintain this state; control is key, and the heat is just right."
As time passed, the herbs gradually fused, forming a light green liquid that began to coalesce into a pill.
Xiao Yan anxiously and excitedly watched the furnace, his heart filled with anticipation for success.
Yao Lao patiently explained the intricacies of the alchemical process beside him.
Finally, a faint popping sound emerged from the furnace, and a crystal-clear green pill appeared within.
Xiao Yan excitedly picked up the pill, his heart brimming with a sense of accomplishment and joy.
He respectfully bowed to Yao Lao, gratefully saying, "Thanks to your guidance, I was able to successfully refine this pill; I've truly benefited greatly."
Yao Lao smiled and shook his head, his eyes sparkling with approval. "You are indeed teachable. Your insight and diligence bring me much joy."
This was Xiao Yan's first attempt at refining a pill; though the pill's effects were ordinary, it held great significance for him.
Afterward, he placed the successfully refined healing pill into a small vial, preparing to sell it at the market for some money.
He understood that this basic pill wouldn't fetch a high price, but for a beginner, it was a solid start.
Moreover, as a discarded member of the Xiao family, selling anything too precious could lead to trouble if someone discovered it.
