The cat demon defies the heavens and is the emperor’s only beloved disciple!

Wanbao Pavilion is the holy place for alchemy of Emperor Yun Che, which brings together the most precious spiritual herbs and elixirs in the world, as well as the secret alchemy recipes that countless cultivators dream of.

In spring, Wanbao Pavilion is filled with the fragrance of flowers and lush greenery.

The sunlight filtered through the thin clouds and fell onto the well-arranged alchemy furnace, shining with golden light, as if every ray of light contained endless spiritual power.

Xu Wan was standing beside Yun Che, observing his master's every move intently.

She was wearing an elegant green gown with her long hair tied up lightly, like a fairy walking out of a painting.

"Wan'er, what we are refining today is a Jin Yuan Dan that can improve your cultivation."

Yun Che's voice was gentle and magnetic. As he spoke, he gently stroked the simple and elegant alchemy furnace beside him.

This alchemy furnace, named "Qiankun Ding", was obtained by Yun Che by chance during one of his training. The furnace body was engraved with complex runes, and faint spiritual energy fluctuations were faintly revealed.

Yun Che lightly waved his sleeves, and a wisp of pure spiritual energy condensed from his fingertips, slowly injecting it into the Qiankun Cauldron.

Suddenly, a blazing flame rose from the cauldron. It was the unique fire of the cultivators, which could extract the essence from the spiritual herbs and remove impurities.

"Look carefully, the way to make an elixir is to be extremely careful and meticulous, and controlling the temperature of the fire is crucial."

As Yun Che explained, he demonstrated how to adjust the size and temperature of the flame according to the different properties of the spiritual herbs.

Xu Wan nodded seriously. She also had a small alchemy furnace of her own. Although it was not as gorgeous as the Qiankun Ding, it was equally precious to her.

She imitated Yun Che, carefully guiding her spiritual power and trying to ignite her alchemy furnace.

At first, her flame flickered, seeming rather awkward. But under Yun Che's patient guidance, the flame gradually became stable and powerful, and began to evenly envelop the spiritual herbs in the furnace.

As the flames continued to burn, the spiritual herbs in the furnace began to emit bursts of fragrance and their color gradually became deeper.

Yun Che smiled faintly. He knew that this was a sign that the essence of the spiritual herbs was beginning to be extracted.

"Now, what we have to do is condense these essences into liquid."

As Yun Che spoke, he lightly waved his finger, and a stream of even purer spiritual energy poured into the Qiankun Cauldron, causing the temperature of the flames to rise suddenly.

Seeing this, Xu Wan hurriedly increased her spiritual power output, and subtle changes also occurred in her alchemy furnace.

I saw that the originally scattered essences began to gather into drops, and finally turned into a pool of emerald green spiritual liquid, swaying gently in the furnace.

Just as Xu Wan was immersed in the joy of refining the elixir, Yun Che suddenly stopped what he was doing.

He took out a golden spirit stone that shone with golden luster, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

“Wan’er, your master wants to give you a gift.” Yun Che said as he placed the Golden Spirit Stone in his palm, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to mobilize the spiritual energy in his body.

The golden spirit stone gradually softened under his control, and finally turned into a golden liquid, flowing slowly.

When the golden liquid cooled and solidified, an exquisite jade bracelet suddenly appeared before his eyes.

The jade bracelet is crystal clear, as if it contains endless spiritual power and vitality.

"This is the 'Golden Spirit Bracelet' that I made specifically for you using the Golden Spirit Stone. It's not only a magical defensive weapon, but it can also help you achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating."

Yun Che gently placed the jade bracelet on Xu Wan's wrist, his eyes filled with doting and anticipation.

After refining the Jin Yuan Dan and giving Xu Wan the jade bracelet, Yun Che felt particularly relaxed.

He thought of Yan Wu’s child Jin Xi, the lively and cute little guy who always made him laugh.

Then, Yun Che took out some remaining Golden Spirit Stone fragments and used the same method to refine a golden stone ball.

Although this stone ball looks ordinary, it is extremely hard and elastic, and is Jin Xi's favorite toy.

“Give this stone ball to Jin Xi tomorrow. He will definitely like it.” Yun Che said to Xu Wan with a smile.

Xu Wan took the stone ball, her heart filled with gratitude and joy.

She knew that this was not just a toy, but also the master's love and blessing for her and Yanwu's family.

As the sun sets, the Wanbao Pavilion gradually becomes quiet.

Xu Wan and Yun Che stood side by side in front of the window, gazing at the brilliant sunset glow in the sky, their hearts filled with longing and yearning for the future.

They knew that on this road of cultivation full of challenges and opportunities, as long as the master and disciple went hand in hand, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

……

Deep in the forest behind the mountain, on a green meadow, the sunlight shines through the sparse treetops, casting mottled shadows.

This is a pure land in the world of cultivation that has not been disturbed by worldly affairs. It is also the secret place where Jin Xi and his parents Yan Wu and Tan Yuan live in seclusion.

Yan Wu and Tan Yuan are both famous and powerful people in the world of cultivation, but they chose such a place to stay away from the hustle and bustle and concentrate on cultivation.

Their child, Jin Xi, has been growing up playing in the embrace of nature since childhood, and is full of curiosity and love for all things.

At this moment, Jin Xi was lying on the soft grass, his clear big eyes fixed on a little bird on a big tree not far away.

The little birds were jumping on the branches, sometimes flying low, sometimes singing loudly, which made Jin Xi laugh happily from time to time.

His heart was filled with endless curiosity and yearning for this world.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of breaking wind in the sky, and then a figure slowly descended like a flowing cloud.

She was a woman in a lavender dress, her hair flowing like a waterfall, her eyes gleaming with a gentle yet profound light. She was none other than Jin Xi's aunt, Xu Wan.

"Auntie is here!" Jin Xi recognized Xu Wan at a glance and cheered excitedly, then turned and shouted towards the big tree not far away,

"Daddy and Mommy, come out and see, my aunt is here!"

Yan Wu and Tan Yuan rushed out upon hearing the sound, only to see Xu Wan had landed lightly on the grass and was walking towards them with a smile.

The family of four was reunited, and laughter suddenly filled the quiet forest.

"Sister Wan, why did you come here suddenly?" Yan Wu took a few steps forward and asked with concern.

"Yes, aunt, is there any good news?" Jin Xi asked excitedly, pulling Xu Wan's skirt.

Xu Wan smiled slightly, took out a round stone ball from her storage ring, and gently placed it on the ground. "I came here today to teach Jin Xi a new game called 'Kicking Football.'"

When Jin Xi heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. He had never heard of such a game before and was full of anticipation.

"Playing football? What is that?" Tan Yuan asked curiously.

"This is a game that originates from the mortal world, but it can also train one's reaction and coordination abilities."

Xu Wan explained, "Xiao Jinxi, watch carefully. Auntie will demonstrate it first."

As he spoke, Xu Wan lightly kicked the stone ball into the air, then caught it lightly and kicked it out again.

The stone ball drew a graceful arc in the air, causing Jin Xi to applaud.

"Aunt, I want to try it too!" Jin Xi couldn't wait to run to the stone ball and kicked it out like Xu Wan did.

However, because he was too weak, the stone ball rolled only a few steps away before stopping.

"Haha, it's okay, just practice a few more times and you'll be fine." Xu Wan encouraged with a smile.

So, on this vibrant lawn, the family of four began their "football" time.

Although this was Jin Xi's first time playing this game, he quickly mastered the basic skills due to his curiosity and enthusiasm for new things.

His laughter, like the clear sound of a silver bell, echoed in the forest, adding a bit of vitality and vigor to this secret place.

As time passed, the sun gradually set, and the sky was dyed with a gorgeous sunset.

Although Jin Xi was tired and sweating, his face was filled with a smile of satisfaction and happiness.

He knew that the time he spent with his aunt would become one of the most precious memories of his childhood.

And Xu Wan, looking at Jin Xi's innocent smile, couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart.

She understood that no matter how bumpy the road of cultivation would be in the future, as long as the love and companionship between family members were always there, it would be the greatest happiness and strength.
