Magic Treasures from the Upper Realm likely operate under rules similar to a password. Once they fall to the Lower Realm, they become like pearls coated in dust, their brilliance hidden; even Ascension Experts would find it difficult to detect the slightest trace of them.

Having obtained two Upper Realm Magic Treasures, Wang Mu actually harbored some doubts, uncertain whether these items were authentic or not.

Mr. Lee had also advised that, aside from oneself, it was best not to let others use these items, as doing so could easily draw the punishment of the Heavenly Way.

Because treasures not belonging to this realm, if misused, would inevitably break the rules—although most cultivators in the Nine Provinces couldn't misuse them even if they tried. But what if an accident occurred?

「Fengyue Sect, Moonlight Hut.」

"These past days, your soul and body, after being tended to by me, your Master, are now unimpeded and undoubtedly healthier than before.

"However, your cultivation... must start anew."

Mu Hongyuan, standing outside the windowsill, then said softly, "Have you thought it through, cultivating the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram?"

"I have thought it through... but Master, I don't plan to start cultivating immediately..."

"Then you..."

"I want to enter the mortal world..."

"Why?"

"My disposition is unstable, and I wish to enter the mortal realm to temper myself through cultivation, be it for three years, five years, ten years, or even a hundred years... any duration is acceptable.

"At Fengyue Sect, my cultivation has been too smooth. Everything was provided by you, Master, and with my constitution, my experience is too limited. That Devil was so formidable, able to manipulate people's hearts repeatedly, because my own mental fortitude is too weak.

"Therefore, I want to enter the mortal realm to temper myself, to walk through the more complex world of mortals... without you, Master, without the Fengyue Sect..."

Mu Hongyuan turned around, looking at her beloved disciple, and sighed. "Years ago, I guided you through the mortal world once, letting you witness its many facets, the complexities of human hearts, and the ruthless struggles of the Immortal Path.

"Yet, what one sees is ultimately different from personal experience..."

"If you are willing to think this way, then I, your Master, will not force you. Only, you must guard your True Heart and not allow yourself to develop romantic feelings again. Otherwise, cultivating the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram will be fraught with difficulties for you."

"Don't worry, Master, I understand."

Watching her beloved disciple leave the Fengyue Sect, Mu Hongyuan sighed.

"In your heart, you must still be unable to forget that rogue, hence this desire..."

"So be it..."

Leaving Fengyue House, Mu Hongyuan changed her attire and went outside the Fengyue Sect.

Shortly after, she saw that rogue approach.

"Eh?" Wang Mu's eyes widened in surprise as he saw Mu Hongyuan outside the sect gate. "Sister Mu, why have you changed into this attire?"

The Mu Hongyuan before him was dressed in light red martial attire, her long hair bound atop her head, a folding fan in hand, resembling a refined and dashing young nobleman from the mortal world.

He glanced again. Wasn't this the same attire Mu Hongyuan wore when she cross-dressed in the game back then? A striking resemblance.

"I am Mu Hongxue, entrusted by you, my friend, to journey to the Immortal Island. Let's depart," Mu Hongyuan said with a smile.

Her flawlessly fair face bloomed with a smile as refreshing as a spring breeze.

Wang Mu even felt his own good looks were threatened.

Wang Mu didn't quite understand what Mu Hongyuan was implying... But vaguely, he had an inkling of her intentions.

With those words, Mu Hongxue lightly waved her hand, and a beautifully designed Immortal Boat slowly materialized in the void.

"Let's go!"

Flying onto the Immortal Boat, Mu Hongxue landed on the navigation beacon at its prow. She opened her folding fan, and wisps of mystical energy flowed out.

Wang Mu followed her.

The Immortal Boat activated, parting the clouds and clearing the mist.

Its grandeur far surpassed what he remembered.

Wang Mu assessed the Immortal Boat and sensed it was of an even higher grade than the flying vessel belonging to his Master, Cheng Tianyong of the Sword Sect.

Truly worthy of the Supreme Master… Indeed wealthy.

Once the Immortal Boat was underway, Mu Hongyuan sat cross-legged in the air, immersing herself in meditation, oblivious to her surroundings.

Wang Mu stole a few more glances, a sense of nostalgia washing over him… Honestly, Mu Hongyuan's current appearance truly resonated with Wang Mu's sense of aesthetics—a pure appreciation for beauty itself.

Wang Mu did not disturb her.

The Immortal Boat was equipped with a Spirit Gathering Array. Finding a spot, he activated the Formation and began to meditate, contemplating the Wuji Treasure Book.

Although Wang Mu had already grasped the cultivation principles of the Wuji Treasure Book, the actual effects of cultivating it were still unknown. It was always better to contemplate it further and study it more thoroughly.

Moreover, it was best to study it in conjunction with the Prajnaparamita Holy Scripture. After attaining the Demon Body, he needed to immediately cultivate the Prajnaparamita Holy Scripture to swiftly form the Divine Demon Body, allowing no delay, to prevent any unexpected complications.

The Prajnaparamita Holy Scripture taught one to comprehend the origin of the Dao and to clarify the mind to perceive one's true nature. This Buddhist Cultivation Manual was a profound skill focused on the deep cultivation of the Primordial Spirit.

Through Primordial Divine Power, one could comprehend the origin of all things and reach the state of true Prajnaparamita. This involved cultivating a great Buddha-Heart wisdom connecting heaven and earth, allowing one to understand all fundamental truths of the world. Ultimately, the Primordial Spirit would merge with the Dao, enabling one to undergo Crossing Tribulation and achieve Ascension.

What one cultivated was a Prajnaparamita Buddha Heart.

For some reason, contemplating this scripture always made Wang Mu think of Ying's Evil Ghost Buddha Heart…

Similarly, the Prajnaparamita Buddha Heart here was not a physical heart.

This 'Heart'—the will, the Primordial Spirit, the very foundation of one's being—is a formidable power in the Buddhist Sect.

Possessing this Heart, one could eliminate all personal karmic hindrances and negative Karma, live freely according to one's true will in this world, where Heart Demons and cultivation bottlenecks would cease to exist.

"With a Demon Body, give rise to a Buddha Heart…"

"This Divine Demon Body... I wonder how powerful it will be once successfully cultivated..."

Wang Mu wasn't sure. Perhaps by the time he truly succeeded in its cultivation, he would have already reached Divinity Transformation, or even Crossing Tribulation...

Mu Hongyuan floated down, looking at Wang Mu, who was immersed in his cultivation.

"Looking at him now... he truly has excellent composure..."

He was cultivating so diligently, completely ignoring her new appearance. This genuinely surprised her a little.

Mu Hongyuan continued to watch him, a somewhat distant and illusory look in her eyes.
