In the core laboratory of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, Jieming had just finished calibrating a complex rune array designed to observe microscopic spatial folds.
After a quick check, he nodded in satisfaction at the smoothly operating array. Just as he was about to delve deeper into his research on new spatial knowledge, his magic net terminal vibrated with a specific, rhythmic pulse.
Glancing down, he saw a communication request from Viola.
Though slightly surprised, Jieming accepted the call immediately.
A light screen unfurled, revealing Viola's lively face. Her silver-gray hair looked freshly groomed, falling in a smooth, shimmering cascade.
"Good afternoon, Junior Brother Jieming!" she greeted him, her voice brimming with energy.
"Good afternoon, Senior Viola," Jieming replied, his usual calm smile in place. "Are you contacting me to purchase more 'Imaginary Element'? I recall you still had a portion of your last batch left."
"No, no," Viola waved her hand, getting straight to the point. "I have a friend who wants to meet you and discuss your 'Imaginary Element'."
"Your friend?"
Jieming blinked, showing little interest. After all, many people in Grandmentor Anton Buchanan's neighborhood had already sought to discuss it with him.
Viola saw through his thoughts. "This friend of mine is different. The law he studies might be able to help you increase your law mastery level."
"Oh?" Jieming's interest was piqued, and he leaned forward slightly. "Your friend? Discussing the Imaginary Element? Specifically?"
Viola explained, "It's like this. I previously discovered that your Imaginary Element has a very peculiar, beneficial guiding effect on biological organisms, so I took some back to research its potential in magic potion cultivation."
"As it happened, I remembered I have a friend who is an absolute expert in the fields of biological cultivation and life energy, so I went to discuss it with her."
She paused, her voice tinged with the excitement of a new discovery. "After we studied your Imaginary Element together, she was absolutely stunned! She found that a certain tendency inherent in your Imaginary Element actually resonates and connects strongly with the core law she's been researching! Because of this, she's very eager to meet you in person and gain a deeper understanding of this Imaginary Element."
Hearing this, Jieming's heart stirred. He asked curiously, "Resonance and connection? Senior Viola, could you tell me what specific law your friend is researching?"
"The Law of Spirituality," Viola replied bluntly, the four words cutting through the air.
The Spirituality Law!
Upon hearing this, Jieming's eyebrows shot up. He instantly understood why she was so interested.
Qi, in the cultivation world, was the fundamental particle that constituted all things.
But it was called spiritual energy—not by accident.
Although the substance itself possessed no sentience, the very concept of "spirit" it contained pointed toward the spiritual intelligence of life, the innate spirit of all things, and even higher levels of spiritual ascension and intellectual enlightenment.
Techniques like "enlightenment," often spoken of in the immortal cultivation world, as well as the indestructible "true spirit" possessed by high-level cultivators, could all be considered the most profound interpretations of this concept of "spirit."
It was only natural that the other party, specializing in the "Spirituality Law," could keenly perceive the inherent tendency within spiritual energy to promote life evolution, nourish the divine soul, and inspire wisdom. After all, this even touched upon one of the most fundamental and core characteristics of spiritual energy!
Jieming lowered his head, lost in serious thought.
When it came to the pure "construction" of spiritual energy, Jieming wasn't worried about his research progress. After all, the Incense Divine Path of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane was still waiting for him to build.
But in terms of the "conceptual" study of spiritual energy, Jieming admitted that he was indeed not very suited for this kind of liberal arts-style research.
Exchanging ideas with a wizard who researched the "Spirituality Law" was undoubtedly a rare opportunity. Not only would it allow him to examine "spiritual energy" from another unique perspective, deepening his understanding of how the concept of "spirit" manifested in the Wizard Universe, but it could also, in turn, help him improve his mastery of his own "Spiritual Qi Law."
After all, knowledge always connects in unexpected ways.
"I understand," Jieming nodded, turning to Viola. "I would be pleased to converse with Her Excellency. What are the arrangements? The time, the location?"
Seeing Jieming agree, Viola's smile widened. "I'm so glad you said yes! As for the location, you can go directly to her plane. All those demonic plant samples we cultivated with your Imaginary Element are there, which will make on-site observation and discussion much more convenient."
Jieming keenly seized the key point in her words: "Her plane?"
To own and completely control a private plane was, in itself, a symbol of power and status.
"That's right," Viola nodded affirmatively. "Like me, she is also a sixth-tier wizard. Because she's exceptionally skilled at planting various exotic demonic plants and cultivating special creatures, she's a quite famous top-tier raw material supplier in our circles, and she's incredibly wealthy."
A sixth-tier wizard, specializing in biological cultivation and the Spirituality Law, possessing a private plane... Jieming quickly weighed the situation in his mind.
The other party was far higher in level than he was, but with Viola, his fellow disciple and senior sister, acting as the intermediary, he shouldn't have to worry too much about his safety.
Besides, establishing a connection with such a being might prove beneficial in the future.
"Alright, I'm in," Jieming decided. "So, are we leaving now?"
"Right now!" Viola declared with her usual decisive flair. "She spends all her time in that 'Hundred Flowers Garden' of hers anyway, so she has no concept of time. We don't need to worry about the hour."
The moment the words left her lips, Jieming's magic net terminal pinged with a cross-planar teleportation synchronization request from Viola.
After verifying the request's permissions and the safety of the coordinates, Jieming approved it.
The next instant, the teleportation formation in the laboratory flared to life, and Viola's tall figure materialized.
She was dressed in a dark green hunting suit, a practical outfit that made her look spirited and valiant.
As soon as she appeared, she grinned and held out her hand. "Junior brother, sell me two more tubes of the high-concentration stuff as a 'greeting gift' before we go. It would be awkward to show up empty-handed."
Jieming smiled helplessly but still skillfully prepared two tubes of pure Condensed Spiritual Energy and handed them to her, transferring the corresponding military merits in the process.
Afterward, he used his soul contract to give the Black Giant Priest Commanders a brief rundown of the research direction and key considerations for the upcoming period.
"Everything's arranged? Then let's go!" Seeing this, Viola took the lead and stepped onto the teleportation formation inside the laboratory.
Jieming followed closely behind.
With a flash of light, the two arrived at the familiar Noren Academy No. 147.
Without stopping, Viola led Jieming through the academy's internal teleportation zone, stepping into a formation capable of transporting them to an extremely distant plane.
