Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 117: Luck Upgrade, Meridian Opening Realm Tenth Level!

Unnamed Valley.

Two figures suddenly appeared here.

The people who arrived were the two elders of the Sunset Sect.

"Over there!" one of them said.

In an instant, the two of them appeared where Zhao Li and the others had fallen.

Seeing the crimson ground beneath their feet and the four slightly distorted bodies, the two of them couldn't help but be moved.

One of them had a cold look in his eyes and said, "Indeed, they're all dead. It seems that the culprit is Jiang Yuan from the Tai Xuan Sect! This person must not be allowed to live!"

The other person saw that his disciple had also died here, and his heart was filled with killing intent. He nodded slowly.

"According to the information revealed by Zheng Kai, they were here to find a cave. The fact that a conflict occurred here indicates that the entrance to the cave must be in this valley."

"Let's split up and search. If we find it, we'll take action immediately!"

"Good!" the person nodded, and the two of them disappeared from the spot.

With their cultivation at the Divine Bridge Realm, they quickly searched the area.

After a moment.

Their figures appeared again in this empty space.

One of them shook his head and said, "No traces can be found, which means that the cave is in another space that we can't see through with our strength."

The other person sighed slightly, "It's a pity we came too late. It's been over half a month now, and they've probably already taken the treasure and left!"

At this moment, on the mountain valley.

An old man with white hair calmly looked down at the two people below.

The elders of the Sunset Sect!

They had also found this place.

This kid is really audacious, killing people and not leaving.

If it weren't for this old man coming here out of boredom to take a look, he would have to use up his life-saving trump card to escape this disaster when he came out.

A few days ago, Kong Nian saw that Jiang Yuan and the others hadn't returned. Based on his vague perception from before, he found this place.

After seeing the several bodies in the valley, he confirmed that Jiang Yuan and the others had disappeared here.

In his eyes, although Jiang Yuan hadn't become his disciple, he had taken on his lifelong efforts.

He considered him his successor, and whether he formally became his disciple or not was of little significance.

He also somewhat understood Jiang Yuan's thoughts. This kid had a unique personality.

Coming to the Tai Xuan Sect was just for cultivation. This Tai Xuan Sect could be replaced with the Sunset Sect, Tianjian Mountain, and so on.

It made no difference to him.

He estimated that in Jiang Yuan's eyes, he would eventually leave the Qianyuan Kingdom, which was just a corner of the Eastern Region, and move towards a larger world.

Just like that peerless genius from the Heavenly Peak back then, he competed with the geniuses of the world and participated in the conflict between humans and demons that had lasted for millions of years.

Now, human Luck and demon Luck were divided in the world. Whoever wins half will possibly become the protagonist of this era.

In the past eras that have passed, some eras had humans as the protagonists.

In some eras, however, humans were just a small clan, or even struggling at the bottom.

Thinking of this, he smiled faintly.

He was very supportive of Jiang Yuan, this kind of genius stepping out.

So he decided to put aside the idea of taking him as a disciple.

Because Jiang Yuan's talent, as shown now, he was completely unqualified to be his master.

Since that was the case, there was no need to become a burden to him.

For now, he would be his protector, ensuring his safety in the early stages, and contributing to the rise of human Luck.

While he was contemplating, the two people below had already discussed and made a decision.

One of them picked up the bodies on the ground and turned into a stream of light flying towards the direction of the Sunset Sect.

And another person dug a dwelling place on the cliff and waited quietly.

He had made a decision to wait for half a year. If there were no changes or if the intelligence proved that Jiang Yuan had already appeared in the world, he would leave.

Otherwise, he could not let go of the grudge of the four direct disciples of the Sunset Sect.

As an elder of the Sunset Sect, he also had the obligation to secretly eliminate these outstanding disciples of the sect. Their rise would cause potential changes in the plans of the imperial family of the Qianyuan Kingdom.

Two months later.

Liu Jie and Liu Ruxi, who were in the cave, had stopped their cultivation.

They had already reached the sixth level of the Meridian Opening Realm and had opened up 251 meridians. They only needed to break through one more level to reach the seventh level of the Meridian Opening Realm.

But they didn't dare to break through at this time.

Because their spiritual soul strength was not enough to support them in further breakthroughs.

When breaking through, if they couldn't suppress the violent spiritual energy in their bodies, they would be injured at best, and at worst, they would go berserk and damage their meridians.

No one dared to take the risk of forcefully breaking through.

Looking at Jiang Yuan, who was still meditating in the distance, Liu Jie sighed, "The place of the great cultivator's nirvana is the greatest opportunity for Brother Jiang. He has actually broken through to the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm and is now advancing towards the final barrier."

"I wonder how strong his spiritual soul is. He can easily break through three levels," Liu Ruxi said when she heard Liu Jie's sigh.

"This is the difference between true geniuses and ordinary cultivators like us. Even if I encounter such an opportunity, I can only break through one level and have to pause my cultivation," she continued.

"For him, as long as he has enough resources, he can break through to an unimaginable level. I estimate that he can break through to the tenth level of the Meridian Opening Realm here, opening up 360 meridians, which is the number of the Great Circulation of Heaven and Earth," Liu Jie said in amazement.

"If that's true, it would be too exaggerated. He has only been practicing for a little over half a year! He has completed a complete journey through a major realm. It won't be long before he breaks through to the Spirit Sea Realm," he added.

"The speed is so incredible!" Liu Ruxi nodded slightly. "The most difficult part of the Meridian Opening Realm is the strengthening of the spiritual soul. As long as the spiritual soul is strong enough and there are enough cultivation resources, this barrier is not difficult at all."

"Moreover, Jiang Yuan has a strong spiritual soul and a strong physical body, so it's even easier for him."

"Now that he is in the place of the senior's nirvana and has obtained his legacy, it's natural for him to break through quickly."

At this moment, the spiritual energy around Jiang Yuan suddenly surged towards him.

Liu Jie widened his eyes and exclaimed, "This phenomenon... he's really going to break through to the tenth level of the Meridian Opening Realm."

At this moment, the exposed spiritual stones in the cave became extremely dim, and countless spiritual energy was drawn out, forming a tide that converged towards Jiang Yuan.

Crack! The remaining pieces of the external spiritual stones also burst one after another, turning into residue and falling to the ground.

"The absorption efficiency is so exaggerated!" Liu Jie murmured, "All the exposed spiritual stones were actually absorbed by him and turned into residue."

Liu Ruxi shook her head and said, "It's a pity that the inner layer of spiritual stones cannot be excavated!"

"Yes!" Liu Jie regained his senses and nodded slowly, then said, "Otherwise, that would be the most direct and effective way to become wealthy."

Both of them felt very regretful.

In the next moment, Jiang Yuan's aura suddenly soared, and a powerful pressure spread outwards. The two of them had to retreat again and again until they had nowhere else to go.

"The tenth level of the Meridian Opening Realm!" Liu Jie's voice was low as he exclaimed, his eyes wide open.

Even though he had expected it in his heart, seeing this scene still shocked him.

Others needed more than ten or twenty years to complete the journey, but he had completed it in just over half a year.

Jiang Yuan had now become the center of a vortex, and spiritual energy was constantly pouring out from the cracks in the walls on both sides.

Liu Ruxi touched the ends of her hair and felt a slight dampness between her fingers.

"No wonder he can break through to the tenth level of the Meridian Opening Realm in one go. He can absorb the spiritual energy from the walls and turn it into mist. It's imaginable how strong his spiritual soul is," she said.

After a while, Jiang Yuan felt that all 360 meridians in his body were completely illuminated, and a joyful smile appeared on his face.

He had opened up a complete set of 360 meridians, which represented that he had reached the pinnacle of this realm and could no longer make further progress.

The next step was to evolve a small world in his dantian and open up the Spirit Sea within his body.

This was the foundation for the subsequent path.

In order to open up a stable Spirit Sea, one needs the spiritual objects of heaven and earth.

These objects can represent the elements of earth, wind, water, fire, or the power of the five elements.

These items can all make the small world within the body become extremely stable.

Only in this way can a complete Spirit Sea be opened up within the body, and one's own small world will not collapse and disperse.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan also knew that this closed-door cultivation had come to an end.

He quickly opened his own panel.

Because of three months of closed-door cultivation, he had increased his Luck power by more than nine hundred strands at once.

Since the birth of the golden Innate Luck, the increase in his Luck power every day had changed from one strand to ten strands.

Moreover, since the Luck power reached two thousand strands, the long-lost word "upgrade" appeared in front of him again.

[Name]: Jiang Yuan

[Realm]: Meridian Opening Realm, Tenth Layer

[Innate Luck]: Ancient Dual Pupils (gold), Boundless Longevity (purple), Emperor's Bloodline (purple), Dragon and Tiger Body (blue, upgradable), Innate Talent (blue, upgradable), Condensed Divine Soul (blue, upgradable), Divine Marksman (blue, upgradable)

[Luck Power]: 2693 strands

[Luck Seed]: None

Seeing the upgradable words on the panel, he felt extremely relieved in his heart.

Based on what he currently saw, he knew how strong the purple Luck was.

In the entire Tai Xuan Sect, the immortal sect that surpassed the mundane world, he had only seen three people with purple Innate Luck.

Even the sect leader, Lu Qingshan, did not have a purple-level Innate Luck.

The renowned 18th prince of the Qianyuan Kingdom, Zhou Tuo, was the same.

It could be seen how rare purple Innate Luck was, and any one of them could be called a child of Luck.

Looking at the four upgradable Innate Luck in front of him, he was immediately caught in a dilemma.

Except for the blue Luck related to archery, the effects of the other three were very obvious.

One was related to the divine soul, allowing him to be born with divine consciousness, able to perceive the probing of the Divine Bridge Realm.

It could be seen how special it made his divine soul.

So even though he was advancing rapidly, he didn't feel any pressure.

Because the strength of his divine soul was no longer something that the Meridian Opening Realm could possess.

If this Innate Luck continued to improve and reached the purple level, it would undoubtedly cause a qualitative change in his divine soul.

As for the Dragon and Tiger Body, it was related to the physical body. Especially when combined with the Ancient Dual Pupils and Emperor's Bloodline, his physical body had already reached an exaggerated level.

His ability to protect himself had also risen to a new level.

But so far, he had not encountered an enemy who could force him to go all out.

If this Innate Luck continued to upgrade, his physical body would be invincible, standing undefeated among the same realm Innate.

As for the other one, it was related to comprehension.

In Jiang Yuan's eyes, comprehension was the strongest in terms of effectiveness. If he didn't have such strong comprehension, he wouldn't have been able to comprehend the Profound Wave Palm to the level of perfection.

Nor could he rely on the Starry Sky Visualization to gain the power of Divine Ability.

He thought for a long time, and his mind moved.

[Successfully consumed 2000 strands of Luck power, Innate Talent (blue) evolved into Peerless Intelligence (purple)]

[Peerless Intelligence]: Extraordinary comprehension, able to understand any technique at a glance, learn it immediately, and have sudden enlightenment as if it were commonplace for you.

Looking at the explanation of those words, Jiang Yuan was overjoyed in his heart.

He had already experienced how strong sudden enlightenment was.

One sudden enlightenment allowed him to grasp the true meaning of the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique.

And another sudden enlightenment allowed his Profound Wave Palm to leap from perfection to the realm of martial arts.

Now, with the effect of this Innate Luck, Jiang Yuan felt that his mind had become clearer. Many insights suddenly emerged regarding the Tianhuo Rocket Art, which he had previously been confused about.

Recalling the scene where he summoned the Heavenly Fire, he suddenly had a realization and inspiration surged within him.

After a few moments, he felt certain in his heart that he had a clue about the martial technique of the Heavenly Fire Rocket Art.

As long as he contemplated it a bit after returning, he would be able to reach that level.

He glanced at the current panel.

[Name]: Jiang Yuan

[Realm]: Meridian Opening Realm, Tenth Layer

[Innate Luck]: Ancient Dual Pupils (Gold), Boundless Longevity (Purple), Emperor's Bloodline (Purple), Unparalleled Wisdom (Purple), Dragon and Tiger Physique (Blue), Condensed Soul of Divinity (Blue), Divine Marksman (Blue)

[Luck Power]: 693 strands

[Luck Seeds]: None

Seeing that he still had close to 700 strands of Luck Power, his heart immediately became determined.

Three months had passed, and Shu Xiaoxiao and the others had already accumulated a full amount of Innate Luck. Now, every day wasted was a waste of Luck Power.

After returning, he estimated that he was not far from reaching 2000 strands of Luck Power by collecting those strands of Luck Power.

Thinking of this, he slowly opened his eyes and got up.

Liu Jie saw that Jiang Yuan had finished his cultivation and quickly congratulated him, "Congratulations on breaking through, Brother Jiang!"

Jiang Yuan also smiled and said, "Thank you!"

His gaze swept over Liu Jie and Liu Ruxi. Both of them had reached the Sixth Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm, just one step away from the Seventh Layer.

The restriction that prevented them from continuing to break through was their soul strength.

Jiang Yuan understood even more clearly the vast difference in talent between individuals.

For him, breaking through to the Tenth Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm did not feel any pressure.

Liu Jie said, "Brother Jiang, now that you have finished your cultivation, shall we return to the sect?"

Jiang Yuan nodded.

Then he looked around and saw that all the spirit stones in the cave had turned into debris.

The cave had also become dim.

If they were not cultivators, it would be no different from being blind in this place.

Only cultivators could rely on a faint glimmer of light to see as if it were daylight.

His gaze penetrated the surface of the cave.

He saw that there were still many ores hidden deep inside, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If he could dig them out and take them away, it would undoubtedly be an astonishing fortune.

But it was a pity that he couldn't!

Suddenly, he was taken aback.

Was this the Spirit Vein Jade Marrow?

Yes, it was the Spirit Vein Jade Marrow!

Jiang Yuan was extremely certain in his heart.

He was overjoyed, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.

Seeing Jiang Yuan's expression, Liu Jie couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Jiang, have you found a treasure?"

Jiang Yuan nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, I have found the Spirit Vein Jade Marrow, a three-inch long and one-inch wide Spirit Vein Jade Marrow."

Upon hearing these words, Liu Jie's eyes widened, "Brother Jiang, are you talking about the Spirit Vein Jade Marrow that can create a spiritual vein?"

"Yes, it is the Spirit Vein Jade Marrow that, according to legend, can gradually generate a vein of spiritual stones as long as it is buried deep in the mountains!" Jiang Yuan nodded.

Liu Jie was instantly happy for Jiang Yuan, "Brother Jiang, you truly have great fortune to be able to find such a treasure."

Jiang Yuan smiled. With the Spirit Vein Jade Marrow, his cultivation in the Spirit Sea Realm would progress even faster.

He now had more confidence in the war between the Immortal Sects and the Qianyuan Imperial Family that would take place two and a half years later.

The gloom in his heart also dissipated a lot.

The bug that caused the Luck value to be calculated incorrectly has been corrected.
