The entire sect is obsessed with love, but I'm the only one who's truly insane.

Qiu Ling worked quickly and efficiently, preparing a large table of dishes.

In an effort to build rapport, they sat down at the table even though they weren't eating, but the conversation gradually turned into a rumor-debunking session.

"I heard the Ink Scale Spirit Bone is gone?"

"No, it's still there, but it was damaged during the bone-shaving process. It's been recovering, but after taking the pills made from the Wuding Dragon Bamboo, it should be completely repaired. It's currently advancing in the next stage."

Qiu Ling breathed a sigh of relief. Mu Chen continued to ask, "There are rumors outside that when you appeared at the Central Plains Grand Competition, your hair had turned white and your eyesight had deteriorated. Is it because your essence was damaged and you are facing the Five Signs of Decay, meaning you won't live much longer?"

"No, not really." Lin Du ate his rice. "My gray hair is temporary, and my eyes are a bit sensitive to light and have astigmatism. I probably won't die anytime soon."

"However..." she said quickly, grabbing the last sweet and sour fried egg, "I'm happy they promote me like this."

Yuan Ye regretfully put down his chopsticks. "Hmm!"

"What about Yuan Ye's dragon aura?" Qiu Ling asked tentatively.

"Oh, I really am out, that's for sure." His eyes were clear as he picked up the last chicken leg. "Is there any rice left?"

Qiu Ling paused for a moment, "It seems there's still a little left."

She cooked a large pot of rice as He Gui had instructed, but it still seemed too little.

Yuan Ye stood up. "That's good. The food my uncle made was so delicious that I couldn't help but eat more."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Ling thought of the stew Feng Yi had made and suddenly realized that it was because the dishes Feng Yi had made before were too bad and not appetizing, which was why they only ate one pot of rice!

"So what do you usually do besides cultivating? I saw Yan Qing and Yuan Ye refining weapons? You can consign them to our trading company."

Qiu Ling's business also includes a shop selling magical artifacts.

"Yes, that's right!" Yan Qing nodded. "That thermos on the market was made by my junior uncle and me. And that timer pot, Yuan Ye and I have been making self-defense hidden weapons recently."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Ye became excited. "Then do you sell coffins? My coffins are excellent! They even have mechanisms!"

"Well, actually..." Qiu Ling realized, "Huh?"

Why would a good family need a coffin with a hidden mechanism?

"Junior Uncle said that cultivators are usually buried with many magical treasures and books, especially rogue cultivators. Given that there are too many tomb raiders, we support custom-made anti-theft coffins! My mechanical skills and Junior Uncle's array formations will ensure that even thieves below the Cloud Ascension Realm will not be able to touch the coffin. Anyone in the Cloud Ascension Realm who dares to lift the coffin lid will be injured or killed."

"It perfectly meets market demand!"

Qiu Ling: ...What kind of talents are these kids? They even sound like they'd sell well?

Lin Du suddenly remembered something, "I drew a blueprint. The mining tools on the market are still not efficient enough. Yan Qing and Yuan Ye will come with me in a bit."

"Why would we need to mine? I haven't heard that a mine has been discovered in our territory recently." Qiu Ling didn't understand the sudden change in topic. Usually, when a mineral mountain is discovered, the major sects in the vicinity will join forces with local family organizations to mine it, and the profits will be divided according to the level of participation and the amount of effort invested.

Lin Du spoke, "The Cold Moon Secret Realm will open this winter solstice."

"I do know that. Actually, your Ninth Uncle and I originally wanted to go, but after thinking about it, we decided to let the merchants go instead, since it's mainly about the mineral deposits... Hmm?" Qiu Ling's eyes widened.

"Yes." Lin Du nodded. "The Cold Moon Secret Realm has many rare minerals."

Otherwise, why would she have studied the Mountain-Breaking Formation first?

Lin Du is always very methodical in her work!

Qiu Ling turned to Mu Chen and sighed, "They say dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and a rat's son knows how to dig a hole. I think these little brats have surpassed their parents."

In the blink of an eye, July's heat wanes, August's heat lingers, September brings the distribution of clothing, and October brings the harvest of rice.

On this day, Lin Du, Yuan Ye, and Yan Qing were working hard on the autumn harvest, their bodies covered in bits of grass. Dozens of harvesters were working in the spirit fields, while Jiang Liang, Xia Tianwu, and Jin Xuan were carefully tending to the spirit herbs in the medicinal field.

As the light overhead gradually dimmed, Yuan Ye subconsciously looked up at the sky. "Hey, there seem to be dark clouds. Is it going to rain?"

Lin Du's heart skipped a beat. He slapped Yuan Ye on the back of the head and unleashed a torrent of spiritual energy. "Those are tribulation clouds! They're the tribulation clouds of the Nascent Soul stage! Hurry, hurry, we need to collect them before Mo Lin successfully completes his tribulation, or it'll start raining spiritual energy later."

She raised her hand and sent a telepathic message to her four senior brothers and sisters, "Autumn Harvest, come quickly."

The Three-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was extremely powerful, with rolling dark clouds and deafening thunder.

Everyone was busy.

No disciple of the Supreme Sect fails to participate in the autumn harvest. The reasons are twofold: first, they understand the true laws of nature and are not so lazy as to be ignorant of the five grains; second, it is convenient for them to practice spiritual power and control of their consciousness. Although they do not have to harvest themselves, controlling magical tools to harvest still requires some effort.

When the thirty-sixth heavenly tribulation descended, all the farm tools were put into the warehouse.

Everyone saw a sword aura cleave the Xuan Lei in two, the tribulation clouds slowly dissipated, birds took flight, light shone everywhere, celestial music filled the air, and purple energy came from the east.

Mo Lin made another step forward on the Divine Firmament Path.

There are two paths of Xuan Lei: one is annihilation, and the other is rebirth.

Mo Lin felt his spirit bones restored to their original state, looked up to feel the spiritual energy in the spiritual rain, and his chest was filled with boundless pride and ambition.

After enduring countless trials and tribulations, one of the hundredth generation disciples of the Supreme Sect has finally grown into a great tree.

Everyone looked up at the drizzling rain, and Feng Yi suddenly looked down and said, "You've grown up."

I've finally grown up.

A 105-year-old cultivator at the Radiant Sun Realm can still be considered a young prodigy.

In the summer, without a trace of emotion, he calmly laid out several large iron basins, determined not to waste them.

Lin Du met Mo Lin's grateful gaze, "I told you to come out for the autumn harvest earlier, but you almost ruined it. The wheat was flooded in one pot."

Mo Lin suppressed his emotions and sincerely apologized.

"It's alright, we can go to the Cold Moon Secret Realm together. We need someone like you!" Lin Du smiled. "Come on, let's celebrate your successful Nascent Soul formation with a feast down the mountain!"

With another person at the Radiant Sun Realm, there's even more room for maneuver.

She had no intention of leaving with just one companion stone.

Mo Lin is no longer on either list, so very few people know about his Nascent Soul stage.

Feng Yi heard that Lin Du and Yan Qing had found many notes from predecessors in the Cold Moon Secret Realm in the Book Tower and made a detailed plan, so he did not object.

As soon as November arrived, the six boisterous children came down the mountain together, and the Supreme Sect finally returned to complete peace.
