The waves behind overtook the waves ahead, each stronger than the last

At this moment, Song Shuhang really wanted to tear open Senior White's cocoon and pull him out of it.

Fortunately, he rationally restrained this foolish impulse—if he had torn open the Giant Cocoon with his bare hands, the Venerable White inside might have instinctively punched him, and he would have died.

Song Shuhang sighed, feeling completely helpless against Venerable White.

But is sleeping inside a cocoon really that comfortable? That's why Venerable White is so reluctant to come out.

Song Shuhang began to have doubts—last time, after taking the 'Dragon Demon Potion,' he immediately emerged from the cocoon after absorbing its effects, without even having a chance to experience what it felt like to sleep inside the cocoon. Perhaps, once his muscles had recovered, he could try sleeping inside the Giant Cocoon again when he took the 'Dragon Demon Potion'?

Maybe he'll even grow to like sleeping in his cocoon and won't want to come out?

Just as he was pondering this, True Lord Eternal Fire of the 'White Cloud Academy' personally came to the side of Venerable White's Giant Cocoon.

He politely bowed to Shuhang and the others, welcoming their arrival.

Then, he bowed to the Giant Cocoon and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai, it's been a long time. How have you been lately?"

After a while, a dazed voice came from within the Venerable White Giant Cocoon: "Hmm~~"

Song Shuhang's eye twitched involuntarily.

But True Lord Eternal Fire remained calm. "Fellow Daoist Bai, then I won't disturb your rest any longer. We can have a long talk by candlelight after you come out."

Inside the Giant Cocoon, the Venerable White responded with a soft "Hmm~~"

True Lord Eternal Fire chuckled, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and left with a carefree air.

Standing to the side, Song Shuhang felt extremely embarrassed.

After True Lord Eternal Fire left, Song Shuhang gently tapped his calloused hand. "Senior White, are you really not going to get up right away?"

"Hmm~ Sleep a little longer, just a little while longer," said Venerable White.

Song Shuhang sighed.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he asked, "Senior White, why are you still refusing to come out of this Giant Cocoon? Could it be that something has happened to your body that makes you not want to come out and see us immediately?"

Could it be that Venerable White has truly transformed into 'Muscle White'?

No, no, if he had become Muscle White, Venerable White would have been very happy to emerge from his cocoon and show it off to everyone. Given Senior White's personality, something like 'Muscle White' would only make him feel amused.

So, could it be that, like Young Master Phoenix Slayer, his body underwent some kind of evolution, such as growing a tail?

"Hmm??" Venerable White's voice sounded groggily.

"Senior White, you don't have cat ears? Or a tail? Or wings or something? Is that why you're embarrassed to come out and see us?" Song Shuhang asked curiously.

"Hmm?" Venerable White mumbled a groggy reply, then yawned after a while and said, "I'm a human cultivator, how could I grow those things? I'm not talking to you anymore, let me sleep a little longer. I'm plugging my ears, I won't reply to you anymore."

"Huh? Cover your ears?" Song Shuhang immediately said, "No, Senior White! If you cover your ears, how are we supposed to call you when the crew starts filming?"

Are we really going to summon 'Senior Copper Trigram' and have him disguise himself as Senior White to film a movie?

No, no, that's not a good idea. Given Copper Trigram Immortal Master's personality, if he were to disguise himself as Senior White, who knows what he might do?

Senior Copper Trigram's reckless nature is no less than Mad Saber Three Waves '! What if he goes out and courts death while wearing Venerable White's appearance?

"Senior White, answer me! Don't cover your ears!" Song Shuhang called out.

However, Venerable White seemed to have plugged his ears, and did not reply to Song Shuhang's words. There wasn't even a 'hmm~' or 'um~' response.

"Don't do that, Senior White. You're the main character later. If you don't come out, everyone will be annoyed. Come out quickly." Song Shuhang stepped forward and vigorously patted the Giant Cocoon.

The True Lord White Crane beside him looked distressed; every time Song Shuhang patted the Giant Cocoon, it felt like patting its heart. Yet, it also longed for the Venerable White to emerge—what if the Venerable White grew wings? Wouldn't he be adorable? Wouldn't they be a perfect match?

So it forced itself to endure the heartache and let Song Shuhang beat the Giant Cocoon.

Song Shuhang patted it several times, but the Venerable White inside didn't react at all.

They really plugged my ears?!

"Looks like I have no choice but to use my last resort," Song Shuhang said through gritted teeth—did they really think he couldn't wake people up without breaking free of this Giant Cocoon?

Senior White, you're too naive.

This time, I'll definitely get you out of bed.

Song Shuhang reached out and picked up the Giant Cocoon and the empty cocoon attached to it. Then... he exerted force with both arms and frantically shook the two Giant Cocoon.

I refuse to believe that you, Senior White, could possibly sleep under these circumstances.

If you can still fall asleep like this, I'll truly admire you!

The True Lord White Crane beside him widened his eyes and said anxiously, "Gently, gently! Don't shake the other empty cocoon off!"

Not far away, True Lord Eternal Fire turned around in surprise and looked at the young man who was frantically shaking the 'Venerable White Sleeping Giant Cocoon'.

Who is this young man? Has he eaten bear's heart or leopard's gall? How dare he shake Fellow Daoist Bai's sleeping Giant Cocoon so violently? Isn't he afraid of dying?

Curious, True Lord Eternal Fire Huo asked True Lord Dustfall beside him, "Fellow Daoist Dustfall, who is this young man?"

True Lord Dustfall also glanced at Song Shuhang —a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, and he always comes up with new ways to court death.

"This young man is my friend Song Shuhang," True Lord Dustfall introduced.

"This name sounds familiar. May I ask your Daoist name, young friend?" asked True Lord Eternal Fire.

"As for Daoist names, that's a bit complicated. Young friend has quite a few Daoist names, so I call him 'Young Friend of Seven Dao Titles'," True Lord Dustfall replied.

True Lord Eternal Fire nodded silently.

"Young friend Shuhang is the one who was responsible for welcoming Senior White out of seclusion this time. How should I put it? He's a bit different from most of the fellow cultivators in the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group' because he's a young man who just started cultivating recently, so his way of thinking is more modern and also more unconventional. In short, he's an interesting junior." True Lord Dustfall's lips curled up—especially this young friend, who was quite adept at courting death.

In my opinion, in the "Nine Provinces Number One Group", the one who can "overtake the old wave and crush the 'Three Waves' on the beach" when it comes to courting death is not Copper Trigram Immortal Master, not Doudou, and not even Fellow Daoist Creation, but this young friend Song Shuhang!

True Lord Eternal Fire nodded, then asked, "However... is it alright for this young friend to shake Fellow Daoist Bai's sleeping place so violently?"

"Hmm, who knows about that? Maybe Senior White finds that being rocked like this helps him sleep better?" True Lord Dustfall chuckled.

True Lord Eternal Fire nodded. "That makes sense!"

But just then, a loud 'clang' sound suddenly came from afar.

The two True Lord turned their heads and looked over—then saw that Song Shuhang, who had just been hugging and shaking the Giant Cocoon of Venerable White, let out a scream and was crushed to the ground by the Giant Cocoon, and even cracks appeared on the ground.

--It seems that the sleeping Venerable White finally couldn't stand being shaken anymore and used a technique or spell similar to 'Thousand-Pound Drop' to make the Giant Cocoon instantly become as heavy as a small mountain.

In this way, Song Shuhang, who was shaking enthusiastically, was directly suppressed by the Giant Cocoon and collapsed to the ground.

"Oh dear, Senior White, don't hurt me anymore! My ribs are going to break!" Song Shuhang shouted, slapping the Giant Cocoon.

But the more he patted it, the heavier the Giant Cocoon became.

Song Shuhang immediately understood. He stopped patting the Giant Cocoon and stopped shouting—and sure enough, the weight of the Giant Cocoon stopped increasing.

Song Shuhang sighed softly—really, waking up a powerful senior is a dangerous thing. Especially when this senior might unintentionally cause terrifying destruction.

Well, he's really out of options now. He'll just let Senior White sleep until the movie starts!

Yu Jiaojiao and Ye Si came to Song Shuhang's side.

At this moment, Yu Jiaojiao transformed into her mother's appearance, holding a twig in her small hand, and poked Song Shuhang's face—there was no other way, the transformation was just an illusion, not a real transformation. Her little paws were too short, and she couldn't poke Song Shuhang's face even when she was squatting down, so she could only rely on the length of the twig.

Yu Jiaojiao asked, "Are you still alive? If you are, roll your eyes!"

Song Shuhang rolled his eyes in agreement.

Yu Jiaojiao: "Hehehe."

Ye Si squatted down next to Song Shuhang, looking puzzled, and asked, "Actually, Shuhang, I was just about to ask you... This Senior White in the cocoon, even though his ears are plugged, you could have woken him up using 'Secret Voice Transmission' when filming started. Did you have to be in such a hurry?"

Song Shuhang: "..."

"You haven't forgotten about 'Secret Voice Transmission,' have you?" Yu Jiaojiao asked.

"Cough, of course not. I just think we can't let Senior White continue to be so willful. He's such a grown man, yet he still stays in bed so long. Everyone's waiting for him to come out, so I actually wanted to shake him awake!" Song Shuhang said earnestly.

Ye Si nodded earnestly, "Oh, oh."

Yu Jiaojiao: "Hehe."

"Alright, stop chuckling. Help me move Senior White's Giant Cocoon. It's so heavy, it's making my ribs feel like they're about to break. Oh well, let Senior White continue sleeping for now. But once filming starts, I absolutely have to wake him up," Song Shuhang said through gritted teeth.

"Hahaha." Yu Jiaojiao stood up with a laugh, then stretched out her little paws, trying to remove the Giant Cocoon pressing down on Song Shuhang.

A moment later...

"Huh? I can't move it!" Yu Jiaojiao used all her strength, but she couldn't budge the Giant Cocoon pressing on Song Shuhang even an inch.

She was a Fourth-Grade demon, and even she couldn't lift that weight—how come Song Shuhang wasn't crushed to death? That weight, even if it didn't kill Shuhang, should at least have made him vomit blood, right?

Ye Si blinked. "I'll give it a try."

Having said that, she reached out her slender hand, picked up the Giant Cocoon, and tried to move it.

A moment later...

Ye Si shook her head and said, "I can't move it either."

She was a Fifth-Grade Realm cultivator, no, wait, she's Fifth-Grade Realm Spirit Ghost now? Anyway, she's Fifth-Grade cultivator, yet she couldn't move this cocoon.

Song Shuhang: "..."

The True Lord White Crane, in her predominantly feminine state, said in a sweet voice, "I'll give it a try."

A moment later... it failed too.

Afterwards, fellow Daoists such as Young Master Young Master Phoenix Slayer, Fairy Lychee, and Snow Wolf Cave Master tried several times, but no one could remove the Giant Cocoon from Shuhang's body.

"It seems that Senior White didn't use a technique like 'Thousand-Pound Drop'. Instead, it's a suppressive seal... Because it's Sealing Art, that's why we can't move this Giant Cocoon!" Fairy Lychee guessed.

As she spoke, Fairy Lychee didn't forget to take out her phone and Song Shuhang.

Song Shuhang's lips twitched. He looked at Yu Jiaojiao, then his eyes suddenly lit up. "Jiaojiao, why don't you try using Earth Escape Art) to take me out?"

"I'm sorry, I can't do it." Yu Jiaojiao chuckled, "This is White Cloud Academy's territory. Every inch of this land is protected by array formations and restrictions, so you can't use the Earth Escape Art."

Song Shuhang: "..."

"Young friend Shuhang, don't overthink it. You should wait until Senior White wakes up and breaks the seal before coming out. Don't worry, I'll have my daughter stay with you," said Fairy Lychee.

At the same time, her small hands flew across her phone, sending the photo she had just taken with Song Shuhang to the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group'.

Yes, she looks beautiful today.

In the Nine Provinces Number One Group

After Fairy Lychee posted her selfie, another fellow cultivator commented.

It wasn't Northern River's Loose Cultivator, but Mad Saber Three Waves.

Mad Saber Three Waves: "Let me out... Senior White, please let me out! I've cried myself unconscious. I spent a full twenty minutes writing this message. Senior White, I was wrong, I was really wrong. This Sluggish Secret Realm is simply hell!"

Mad Saber Three Waves was truly afraid!

People who are prone to courting death are generally quite active, and forcing them to remain 'slow' is the most terrifying thing for them.

When the fellow cultivators in the group saw this message, they could already imagine what would happen after Mad Saber Three Waves was sent to the 'Sluggish Secret Realm'.

He needs fifteen seconds to raise his hand, and fifteen seconds to take a step.

It took him fifteen seconds to take out his phone, another fifteen seconds to unlock the screen, and several more seconds to open the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group'. Then he started typing a message, each keystroke taking several seconds.

And so he typed out each word one by one, each word taking several seconds, or even a minute.

This doesn't even include the process of deleting the text after making a mistake. Finally... after a long twenty minutes, Mad Saber Three Waves typed out the above sentence and successfully pressed the 'send message' button.

It was a truly heart-wrenching scene—but most of the fellow cultivators in the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group' felt no 'pity' when they thought of this tragic scene; on the contrary, they felt a sense of joy.

Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "Huh? You can send messages in that Secret Realm? Not bad."

Mad Saber Three Waves was so enraged he even contemplated suicide.

At this time, it was more than 100 kilometers away from the White Cloud Academy.

Su Clan’s Seven Blade Flight, his hands behind his back, exuding the air of a master. Behind him, Su Clan’s Sixteen sat cross-legged, playing on his mobile phone.

Soon, she saw the group photo posted by the Fairy Lychee.

"Pfft~~" Sixteen burst out laughing.
