Chapter 2: Arranging for Bai Man

In the Golden Mysterious Star Region of the Immortal Realm, on the Flower Fluttering Star…
In a secluded valley, a woman suddenly appeared—beautiful and graceful, with skin as white as snow and striking large eyes that exuded both dignity and charm. This woman was Qu Yi’s wife, Bai Man.
In the realm of cultivation, Bai Man had endured nearly ten thousand years before finally ascending. As soon as she ascended, she looked around and realized she was in a valley, filled with the sounds of birds and beasts. A dangerous aura was approaching her. With her cultivation level of One-Star Human Soul Immortal, she immediately became anxious, tears welling in her beautiful eyes.
“Qu Yi, if you don’t come quickly, I’m going to die!” Bai Man cried anxiously in the valley.
She knew that Qu Yi possessed the Boundless Star Dots, while she had the Soul Compass he had given her, allowing him to arrive at any moment. Yet she wasn’t entirely sure—what if he was in seclusion? Then she would truly be in danger.
“Haha, Bai Man, how could I let you die? I’m coming.”
Suddenly, a pleasant voice came from the sky, and Qu Yi’s tall figure descended, radiating happiness.
Bai Man’s eyes immediately filled with tears as she rushed into the air and threw herself into Qu Yi’s arms, her delicate hands patting his chest.
“You still like to tease me. If you’re delayed even a moment longer, I’ll be eaten by those monsters!” Bai Man smiled joyfully but complained loudly.
Qu Yi chuckled, enduring her pats, only to notice that the surroundings were surrounded by monsters—groups of Demon Sound Wolves, all with green eyes and fierce appearances, clearly intent on devouring him and Bai Man.
Bai Man was only at the One-Star Human Soul Immortal level, while Qu Yi emitted a sense of chaos, as ordinary as the natural energy of the world. Naturally, neither of them could stop the monsters’ desire to hunt. Thus, these Demon Sound Wolves, at the Human Soul Immortal level, appeared.
“Bai Man, stop fighting for now. I’ll eliminate these annoying creatures around us,” Qu Yi said gently, patting her back.
Hearing his words, Bai Man responded with an “Oh,” then happily left his arms and looked at the groups of Demon Sound Wolves.
Qu Yi simply called out, “Five Elements World.”
He quickly moved his hands in five directions, delivering five punches. Immediately, five planetary worlds appeared—one for each of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each of these worlds was filled with the six forces of the world.

The Celestial Realm, the Demon Realm, and the Fiend Realm—among these three realms, it is likely only Qu Yi possesses the ability to summon the Five Elements worlds simultaneously, as he is the only one who masters all five elements. Now, with his cultivation at the level of a Six-Star Heavenly Soul Immortal, he has already mastered the powers of the six elements. Thus, he was able to manifest the planet worlds of the five elements in their most perfect state.

Ugh, ugh, ugh…

When those Demon Sound Wolves sensed Qu Yi’s attack, they immediately felt a sense of despair. They couldn’t move an inch; their entire bodies were frozen in place, and in terror, they could only emit final cries of despair. Over ten thousand Demon Sound Wolves vanished as if they had never existed in this world.

“Qu Yi, you’re… so amazing,” Bai Man said in astonishment, forgetting to close her mouth.

Seeing such a fascinating scene, Qu Yi suddenly flashed forward and came to Bai Man’s side, kissing her.

“Ugh… you’re bad…”

Having been separated for tens of thousands of years, they spent many days together in affection before reluctantly parting. Afterward, Qu Yi recounted to Bai Man everything that had happened since he arrived in the Celestial Realm. His wife listened attentively, and Qu Yi continued to speak with great enthusiasm for a whole month.

Eventually, feeling like he would go mad if he kept talking, he stopped abruptly.

“Qu Yi, why did you stop? What about the matters of the Fallen Realm and the Divine Realm?” Bai Man asked gently, leaning on his shoulder.

After listening for over a month, she was still so interested and hadn’t realized that Qu Yi had already told her everything.

Qu Yi widened his eyes and couldn’t answer for a long time.

“Because it will take another two years before the Fallen Realm and the Divine Realm open, and I haven’t entered them yet,” Qu Yi said with a mix of laughter and frustration.

Bai Man let out a sigh, stepping away from his shoulder with a red face. “So, you’ve already told me everything.”

Qu Yi nodded immediately.

“Then let me talk about the Cultivation Realm. Get ready—this will take a long time,” Bai Man said excitedly.

Qu Yi pinched his finger, thinking that it would likely take a whole year just to hear Bai Man explain everything. He had already experienced her storytelling skills before—she would explain everything from start to finish in great detail. If she were to cover everything that had happened over those tens of thousands of years, a year would definitely be the shortest possible time.

“Bai Man, we can talk about matters in the cultivation world later. Let me take you to see an old friend first,” Qu Yi said with a smile. Then, without waiting for Bai Man’s reply, he grabbed her and led her into the Dimension Ball.
※※※
Inside the Dimension Ball,
The Vessel God appeared as a well-behaved child, sleeping on a soft chair.
Bai Man landed right next to the chair and saw the Vessel God at first glance. Excited, she spread her arms and rushed toward him.
“Vessel God…” Bai Man called out excitedly as she reached for him, only to find that the Vessel God had already disappeared from the chair.
In the distance, the Vessel God stared at Bai Man with wide eyes.
“Can’t you two let me sleep in peace?” the Vessel God complained indignantly.
Bai Man was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter. “Vessel God, you’re still the same as before. Just a hug from me, and you’re already so reluctant!”
The Vessel God nodded and waved his hand. “Alright, you’ve already ascended and seen me. Stop disturbing me. I still need to sleep… Well, I’ve been feeling sleepy lately.”
Bai Man pouted, clearly displeased.
Qu Yi also entered the Dimension Ball and joined Bai Man. Seeing her expression, he understood what had happened.
“Bai Man, forget it. The Vessel God has always been like this—neither growing fatter, taller, or stronger. He’s been frustrated all these years, and his temper is terrible. Just ignore him. Let’s go see Wu Yuan. He’s now at the level of a Six-Star Heavenly Soul Fiend,” Qu Yi said with a smile.
Since Wu Yuan didn’t need to worry about his soul realm, Qu Yi could keep helping him advance by providing energy. Over the past ten thousand years, Wu Yuan had stayed in the Primordial Vitality Veins and quickly reached the level of a Six-Star Heavenly Soul Immortal. However, to advance to a lower-tier Heavenly Soul Fiend, Wu Yuan still needed a special opportunity—something beyond just absorbing primordial energy.
Bai Man glared at the Vessel God fiercely before turning to Qu Yi with a smile and nodding.
Wu Yuan was on a planet inside the Dimension Ball. That planet had only one type of terrain: grasslands. The entire planet was covered in green grass, with flat grasslands everywhere.
Qu Yi led Bai Man over and landed in front of Wu Yuan, who was running.
“Ugh… Ugh, it’s Bai Man. You’ve also ascended,” Wu Yuan stopped his horse and immediately reverted to his human form, shouting in delight.
Bai Man ran over to Wu Yuan, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, “Wu Yuan, it’s been so long since I last saw you. You’re still the same—acting like a child.”
Wu Yuan let out some frustrated noises.

Qu Yi smiled and then said, “Bai Man, stay here and play with Wu Yuan. I’ll go buy you a cultivation space so you can quickly advance in your cultivation.”
At present, Bai Man was only at the level of a One-Star Human Soul Immortal, which was quite low. Naturally, Qu Yi wanted to provide her with the necessary conditions to help her advance rapidly.
For a Human Soul Immortal cultivator, a cultivation space was undoubtedly the best treasure. Back when Qu Yi ascended to the Immortal Realm, he also relied on a cultivation space to quickly advance, which allowed him to establish a firm foothold there.
Now, with his wealth and influence in the Immortal Realm, it was no trouble for Qu Yi to purchase a precious cultivation space. Moreover, he had countless pills. With his Soul Devouring bloodline, he never ran out of pills. Therefore, with a cultivation space and pills, Qu Yi was confident that Bai Man would be able to advance quickly.
Upon hearing this, Bai Man’s face lit up with joy. She had already heard Qu Yi explain many things about the Immortal Realm, knew about the uniqueness of cultivation spaces, and was aware that Qu Yi had many pills. Hearing him arrange such things for her made her extremely happy.
“Qu Yi, go ahead. I want to have fun with Wu Yuan. I want to tell him everything about the cultivation world,” Bai Man said with a smile.
Hearing Bai Man’s words, Wu Yuan jumped up happily, as if he had been playing alone for years and finally found a companion, feeling extremely joyful.
Qu Yi’s heart skipped a beat at this. Fortunately, he had Wu Yuan, the best listener, to share this burden with.
“Okay, go ahead and chat. I’ll be back soon,” Qu Yi replied immediately before disappearing.
Bai Man took Wu Yuan’s hand, sat down, and began to tell him about the events in the cultivation world over the years.
※※※
Qu Yi returned to the Inch Realm Sphere and saw Bai Man and Wu Yuan chatting enthusiastically. Shaking his head slightly, he then went over to them.
“Bai Man, I’ve brought the cultivation space. From now on, practice here,” Qu Yi said with a smile.
Then, he threw a rectangular jade piece onto the grass—it was a cultivation space of very high quality.
Qu Yi had bought a cultivation space specifically for Bai Man.
“This is the cultivation space. It looks really ugly,” Bai Man said after staring at it for a while.

Qu Yi touched his forehead and quickly took out six bottles of pills, smiling and saying, “Bai Man, each of these six bottles contains a different type of pill, each embodying a fundamental force of the metal element. With these six pills, along with this cultivation space, you won’t need even two years to break through to a Six-Star Human Soul Immortal. I believe you’ll succeed.”

Two years to progress from a One-Star Human Soul Immortal to a Six-Star Human Soul Immortal—this would be an astonishingly fast rate of cultivation even in the Immortal Realm. Of course, Qu Yi had good reasons for being so confident.

Hearing this, Bai Man’s mouth fell open in shock, clearly stunned by Qu Yi’s words.

Qu Yi smiled faintly and said gently, “Bai Man, cultivate here. I need to go find Fire Venerable. It’s time to settle Emperor Hao’s debt.”
