Chapter 786
"I understand. Thank you, Senior Brother. I've let you spend your resources again this time. Once I earn enough contribution points, I will pay you back."
Bai Zhu shook his head.
"It's just a first-grade pill for stabilizing the mind; it's not worth many contribution points, so there's no need."
"If you truly want to thank me, then master the art of alchemy sooner. I look forward to discussing the Dao with you."
Otto smiled and said sincerely:
"I also look forward to discussing the Dao with Senior Brother Bai Zhu."
Bai Zhu stood up and walked toward the door.
"Then I shall take my leave."
"Also, I will be entering seclusion in a few days. If you have any questions, come find me within these next few days."
Otto nodded slightly. After watching Bai Zhu leave, he lay back down on the bed, weak and powerless, gazing at the ever-changing sky of the pocket dimension.
Otto lay alone on the bed, surrounded by an endlessly vast lawn.
A profound loneliness filled the entire world, but...
Otto's heart was full; he did not feel lonely.
It was just that, as of now, Otto was still troubled by how he could have an honest and open conversation with Kallen.
Every time he thought about such things, Otto felt a sense of panic.
After a long while, he sighed softly, closed his eyes, and began to regulate his mind.
Inside Himeko's cave dwelling.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent at this moment; Kallen sat blankly to one side, while Theresa looked on with some concern.
"Grandma Kallen, are you alright?"
Hearing this, Kallen managed to pull herself together. Looking at Theresa, who looked exactly like she did when she was a child, a trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes.
Although it was strange to be called "Grandma" for no apparent reason.
But Theresa carried her bloodline, so she was indeed her descendant.
As for why she wasn't called "Mom Kallen"...
If Theresa really called her that, Otto would definitely explode.
"I'm fine. I'm sorry, Theresa..."
Theresa shook her head. The matter between Kallen and Otto was a grievance of the older generation, and there was nothing she could say about it.
Such matters could only be resolved by Kallen and Otto themselves. There would be plenty of time to get along in the future; let them find a way themselves.
She was just a little girl in her tens.
Whether in terms of physical age or actual age, compared to these two who were over five hundred years old, she was still a child.
What's more, even by the lifespan of a cultivator, she was still in the stage of not having fully developed.
"Sister Kallen..."
Kiana suddenly called out excitedly. In an instant, Theresa's face darkened, and she stared silently at Kiana.
"What are you shouting for! Kiana!"
Kallen pursed her lips and smiled, waving her hand:
"It doesn't matter. Let everyone call me what they want; I don't mind."
Theresa was a bit annoyed. Of course Kallen didn't mind; after all, she wasn't the one who had been demoted by several generations.
Kiana glanced quietly at Theresa, then immediately added:
"Sister Kallen, don't think so much. Come over and listen; we were just planning to tell the Class Monitor about cultivation."
Kevin had come over earlier and said a few things, but basically, he just urged Fu Hua to start cultivating sooner; he hadn't mentioned any specific details.
Fu Hua was still quite bewildered.
She was once the Immortal Chiyuan; everything was fine, so what was this situation with Kiana and the others cultivating?
"Speaking of which, how exactly was I resurrected?"
Fu Hua clenched her fists, somewhat astonished:
"This body doesn't seem to be my original one, but... it is equally powerful!"
"Wait! Is this a soul body? A body condensed from the soul? What is going on?"
Kiana laughed cheekily:
"Earlier, we took you to see Senior Sister Lisa. Senior Sister Lisa restored your soul power, Class Monitor, and said she gave you something special."
"Strictly speaking, you are just a soul right now; your physical body hasn't been brought over yet."
Fu Hua was somewhat dumbfounded.
"Is this also a method of the Immortals?"
It was a bit absurd. She was, after all, the Immortal Chiyuan; how could she not remember having such abilities?
"It's cultivators! We are all cultivators now."
Kiana poked Fu Hua. Although it was a soul body, it still had warmth and substance.
Kiana couldn't help but feel moved by the special abilities of cultivators.
"Cultivation..."
Fu Hua was still somewhat bewildered.
"What exactly does that refer to?"
"Hmm... Class Monitor, have you ever read cultivation novels?"
Fu Hua's face flushed slightly, and she defended herself:
"I... how could I read such things..."
"Wait!"
Suddenly, Fu Hua reacted, staring at Kiana in astonishment.
"You mean, cultivation refers to the kind of cultivation in cultivation novels?"
"Hee hee! Class Monitor, didn't you say you hadn't read them?"
Kiana teased Fu Hua, who pursed her lips and did not respond to Kiana's banter.
"I don't quite understand..."
Kallen looked at Kiana blankly. When she was alive, there were no cultivation novels.
However, she had seen an Immortal—the Immortal Chiyuan, after all.
"I'll give you a book later, Sister Kallen; you'll understand once you read it."
"Simply put, Teacher Himeko suppressed the Honkai with the cultivation base of the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit."
"Now, our world is temporarily free of Honkai. If we want to eradicate it completely, it's also very simple; I can do it after cultivating for a while longer."
"Also, Refining Qi into Spirit is the second realm of cultivation, you know."
Fu Hua suddenly realized.
"Refining Essence into Qi, Refining Qi into Spirit, Refining Spirit into Void, Refining Void into Dao, and then undergoing the Tribulation to ascend and become an Immortal..."
Bronya pursed her lips and looked at Fu Hua strangely.
"Class Monitor... you seem to know a lot about this."
513. Kallen: Why would I be resurrected if there's no Honkai?
Hearing Bronya's words, Fu Hua realized she had given herself away.
She immediately blushed in embarrassment.
Having lived for over fifty thousand years, Fu Hua had to find some fun in her daily life, right?
Besides, is there anything wrong with the Immortal Chiyuan reading cultivation novels?
"I just..."
"Alright, stop teasing Fu Hua."
Himeko looked at Bronya and the others with annoyance, coming to Fu Hua's rescue.
Fu Hua breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Himeko, her mood somewhat complex.
"Teacher Himeko..."
Ever since she woke up, she hadn't dared to face Himeko.
Fu Hua always felt that it was because she had been deceived by Otto back then that she had made mistakes, causing Himeko to nearly lose her life.
