Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 123: Understanding the Grudges Between Jiang Yu and Jiang Tian Completely!

The next day.

Jiang Yuan opened his eyes and a joyful smile appeared on his face.

It's really different after my comprehension has improved.

Just one night of practice, and he successfully visualized the Taiyin Star and the Sun Star in the Celestial Star Chart for the first time.

Just visualizing these two stars made him feel that his spiritual soul was improving at a much faster rate.

And in the latter half of the night, he continued to comprehend the Heavenly Fire Archery, and instantly comprehended a trace of the destructive true meaning of the Heavenly Fire.

It was this trace of destructive true meaning that he had been lacking before. Combined with his previous insights, he leaped to a realm beyond perfection.

This superior attack technique of the ordinary high-grade level has finally reached its most perfect state in his hands, with no room for improvement.

Just at this moment,

Bang! Bang! Bang!

There was a sudden knocking sound at the gate of the mansion.

Jiang Yuan was immediately surprised, so early? Who could suddenly come to visit?

His divine sense swept over in an instant.

The figure of the person outside the door instantly appeared in his mind.

It's her!

Xie Wanqing!

His voice instantly sounded in Shu Xiaoxiao's ears: "Xiaoxiao, bring the visitor outside to the backyard!"

Backyard.

As soon as Xie Wanqing stepped into this courtyard, she saw Jiang Yuan already sitting in the pavilion, sipping tea.

"Sister Xie, please have a seat!" Jiang Yuan raised his hand to gesture.

"Don't call me sister anymore, I can't bear the title of sister with your current cultivation level. In the cultivation world, age doesn't matter, only strength matters!" Xie Wanqing said with a bitter smile while taking a seat.

Looking at Jiang Yuan in front of her, the more she looked, the more she felt that she had wasted these years.

She looked older, but her cultivation level was far behind him.

It should be noted that no one can start practicing from the womb. Before the body is fully developed, any excessive body tempering is considered to be damaging the potential of the body.

So no matter how talented one is, they generally start body tempering around the age of fifteen and embark on the path of cultivation.

Before that, even the descendants of great cultivators can only use natural treasures to nourish their bodies and increase their potential.

Strengthening the tendons and bones, so that once they start practicing, they have the potential to soar.

So judging from Jiang Yuan's current age, he has only been practicing for about two years at most. From an ordinary and mediocre mortal to this point, it is truly incredible.

Thinking of this, she felt even more bitter in her heart.

She looked older, which means her cultivation time is several times longer than Jiang Yuan's.

Is this the difference between true geniuses and our false geniuses? She secretly thought in her heart.

Jiang Yuan heard Xie Wanqing's words and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"I wonder what brings Sister Xie here today?"

Xie Wanqing finally came back to her senses.

"Master Xiao asked me to inform you that the judgment from yesterday is out?"

"Oh?" Jiang Yuan was suddenly surprised. This efficiency is a bit exaggerated!

It has only been one day, and the judgment and punishment from yesterday have already been completed.

No wonder he became the acting hall master of the Enforcement Hall. His style of doing things is indeed swift and decisive.

Jiang Yuan said lightly, "I'm all ears!"

Xie Wanqing immediately spoke, "Jiang Tian and Jiang Yu, their dantians have been abolished, and today they were expelled from the Tai Xuan Sect. Now they have left the Tai Xuan Sect through the Great Gorge and headed towards the mortal world."

"Chu, the steward, has also abused his power for personal gain and neglected his duties in recent years. His dantian has also been abolished, but unfortunately, due to his old age, he aged and died just half an hour after his cultivation was abolished."

"Liang Qiuduo has been relieved of his position as the leader and demoted to a regular disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall. He will face the wall in the Cold Ice Cave for three years!"

"I wonder if Senior Jiang is satisfied with this punishment?"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"Satisfied!"

From the perspective of the sect's rules and regulations, this punishment in Jiang Yuan's eyes had already exceeded the normal punishment.

From this, one could also see Xiao Ruochen's perspective. In his eyes, the Tianjiao were far more important than ordinary disciples.

Because his previous performance was enough to make him pay attention, that's why he received such a severe punishment now.

This trial coincided with his previous views, and his actions were also unfair.

He was only a beneficiary of his way of doing things. From the perspective of the sect, he was not competent, but from the perspective of the sect, his actions were correct!

Chu Zhi looked like he only abolished their dantians, but in fact, he should have sentenced them to death.

As for Jiang Tian and Jiang Yu, after their punishment is over, let Xie Wanqing inform him. The intention behind it is self-evident.

It's just that the lives of the two of them are left for him to handle.

As for Liang Qiu, she didn't make any major mistakes. She just acted arrogantly as a law enforcer.

He had already taught her a lesson, so the current punishment could be considered severe.

Xie Wanqing saw Jiang Yuan's expression and also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she got up and said, "Since that's the case, I'll take my leave!"

Just as she took a few steps, she added, "By the way, Jiang Tian and Jiang Yu were expelled from the Tai Xuan Sect early this morning."

After saying this, she left without looking back.

Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment.

If they were to be judged by their crimes, they certainly didn't deserve death.

But thinking about what these two had done before, Jiang Yuan slowly got up. Keeping such people would only invite more trouble.

Then he said to Shu Xiaoxiao, "I'm going out!"

Tian Shou Peak.

"Master Uncle!" Lu Qingshan respectfully said.

Kong Nian raised his eyes and glanced at him. "Why do you have time to wander around this old man today?"

Lu Qingshan sighed slightly, "Master Uncle is still angry about yesterday!"

Kong Nian shook his head, "Not angry, just a little disappointed!"

Lu Qingshan also sighed, "Yes! We've been too comfortable for too long. It's been hundreds of years of comfort, and they've lost their fighting spirit!"

"Qianyuan Country has also been too comfortable for too long. This kind of comfortable environment will only corrode people's hearts!"

"I finally understand why there are so few people in Qianyuan Country who have broken through to the Law Manifestation realm!"

Hearing Lu Qingshan's sigh, Kong Nian nodded slightly.

"It's this principle. The path of cultivation requires an indomitable spirit. Otherwise, it will eventually come to a halt."

"The strength of the divine soul is not only related to cultivation, but also to the strength of one's spiritual will!"

"So far, no one in our Tai Xuan Sect has broken through to the Law Manifestation realm because we have been too comfortable!"

Lu Qingshan nodded, "So we must fight the great battle with Qianyuan Country. Only by rising from the ruins can our Tai Xuan Sect be reborn. In these two years, observe the disciples carefully, see their character and potential, and send some sparks to Qianyuan Country!"

Then he looked at Kong Nian again, "Master Uncle, can you break through to the Law Manifestation realm again?"

Kong Nian pondered for a moment, then shook his head, and nodded again.

"It's hard to say. I feel that I am not far from a breakthrough. The most crucial step in Law Manifestation is to transform the divine soul into the Primordial Spirit. This step was originally like a sky moat. But recently, I feel that this sky moat is just a mountain peak. With a little effort, I can leap over this sky moat and transform my divine soul."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan's expression instantly became excited.

"If Master Uncle can break through again and extend your lifespan by hundreds of years, that would be great! Our Tai Xuan Sect can become the top sect. On par with Tianjian Mountain!"

Kong Nian shook his head, "Let's not talk about that. Whether I can break through or not depends on opportunity. After all, I don't have many good years left! My current state is already declining, and there is only one last chance!"

Talking about this, Lu Qingshan sighed slightly.

On the other side.

Jiang Yu and Jiang Tian were running wildly in the canyon.

"Cousin, slow down, wait for me!"

Jiang Tian's face turned pale. He had just been hit by a dispersing cyclone in his dantian, and his meridians were also damaged. He was in pain all over his body.

With such injuries, he was even worse off than ordinary mortals at their limits.

Jiang Yu didn't even look back as he said, "If you want to die, rest here. Only after crossing this great gorge and rushing into the endless barren mountains and ancient forests can we truly escape danger."

"Cousin, will Jiang Yuan really come?"

"No one knows the answer to that question except for him. But based on his performance since joining the sect, he is not a forgiving person. Are you willing to bet? I'm not!"

After hearing these words, Jiang Tian's face turned pale and he looked somewhat fearful.

He immediately clenched his teeth and caught up.

On the other side.

In the sky.

At this moment, two elders concealed their figures and silently followed.

They were the elders who presided over the Law Enforcement Hall, following the orders of Xiao Ruochen. They were also tasked with testing Jiang Yuan's actions through Jiang Tian and Jiang Yu, as decided in yesterday's discussion among the elders.

They were shocked to learn that Jiang Yuan had broken through to the tenth level of the Meridian Opening Realm, just one step away from the Spirit Sea Realm.

This was extremely astonishing.

Because this meant that Jiang Yuan's talent in terms of spiritual power, although not as exaggerated as his physical body, still ranked among the top in the Qianyuan Kingdom.

Only those with an incredibly powerful innate spiritual power could break through this realm like a god.

This also meant that his talent in terms of spiritual power must be extraordinary.

Therefore, this prodigy could not be treated as an ordinary disciple or even a true disciple. His character and talent needed to be observed before entrusting him with important tasks.

If his character, temperament, and talent were all excellent, he could be cultivated as the next sect leader.

Liu Qingshan was already nearing a hundred years old, and in another hundred years, he would retire and vacate the position of elder. At that time, the position of sect leader would naturally be available.

Suddenly, one of them looked in the direction of Tianzhu Peak, his mouth slightly agape, and his eyes wide open.

"Flying in mid-air! What kind of technique is this?"

At that moment, a blue light flickered around Jiang Yuan in the distance, as if a bolt of lightning was speeding through the air, swiftly passing over the ancient forest.

The other person also showed astonishment, "Meridian Opening Realm can fly in mid-air. Could this be an innate divine ability?"

Then he became certain, "Yes, it must be. Only those with innate divine abilities can perform such miraculous feats."

At this moment, the two of them stared dumbfoundedly at Jiang Yuan flying towards them, feeling extremely shocked.

The speed displayed by Jiang Yuan at this moment was incredibly fast.

Although they couldn't compare to him, this speed could be considered the strongest means of self-preservation below the Divine Bridge Realm.

Even the most powerful cultivators in the Spirit Sea Realm, when faced with Jiang Yuan's ability to fly in mid-air, felt powerless.

They could only briefly hover in the air, leaping a hundred feet at most.

But that was the extent of it. How could they kill someone who could fly in mid-air? Moreover, his speed was much faster, about two to three times their own speed.

It must be noted that they were both high-level cultivators in the Divine Bridge Realm, wielding the power of heaven and earth, surpassing Jiang Yuan's cultivation by two realms.

The difference between the two was like night and day, like the difference between ants and humans.

To have two to three times their speed already left them extremely shocked.

This meant that once Jiang Yuan broke through to the Spirit Sea Realm, his flying speed would undoubtedly skyrocket again, making him the fastest among cultivators of the same realm.

In the air above the gorge, Jiang Yuan's eyes narrowed.

"I've found you!"

He muttered to himself, his figure slowing down from fast to slow, instantly stopping on a rock in the gorge.

Looking at the two people frantically fleeing below, his face turned slightly cold.

A beam of light flashed in his hand, and a longbow appeared.

He strung the bow, and the bowstring in his hand snapped straight.

The next moment.

Boom—

A loud explosion.

The arrows in Jiang Yuan's hand shot straight towards the two people fleeing below.

Boom--

As the arrow fell, the two people were instantly torn apart into a mist of blood, without even realizing the danger.

Jiang Yuan retracted his longbow and turned away in an instant.

"A clean and ruthless shot! Indeed merciless!" muttered someone in the sky.

"Yes!" another person echoed, then shook their head slowly. "It's just a bit too ruthless and heartless. Although they were at fault, it doesn't warrant death, considering they are fellow disciples!"

"Let's go back and report! With his disregard for the bond between fellow disciples, it will be difficult for everyone to agree to fully cultivate him!"

"Yes," the person nodded. "Fellow disciples should be forgiven in certain situations in order to gain their love and respect. Besides, who lacks cultivation resources? To fully cultivate him, the resources of the other major peaks will inevitably be reduced. This plan is basically impossible to pass!"

"Merit and reward, only then can we win over the masses."

"If he wants to obtain more resources, he can only rely on himself."

"You can't just keep demanding from the sect without giving anything in return!"

In an instant, the two figures disappeared from this place.

The valley fell into silence.

From leaving to returning, Jiang Yuan only took half an hour.

Just as he stepped through the gate...

Shu Xiaoxiao hurriedly greeted him, "Young Master, the Sect Master is waiting for you in the backyard!"

The Sect Master? Lu Qingshan?

Jiang Yuan felt puzzled. Why did he suddenly come to visit?

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he nodded slightly and walked towards the backyard.

After a moment...

Entering his own backyard, Jiang Yuan saw Lu Qingshan, dressed in a green robe, sitting in the pavilion, with a calm and detached appearance.

He appeared to be in his thirties, and no one could tell that he was approaching a hundred years old.

"Greetings, Sect Master!" Jiang Yuan bowed and saluted.

Lu Qingshan saw Jiang Yuan and a smile appeared on his lips. He gestured with his hand, "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Sect Master!" Jiang Yuan bowed again and took a seat.

"Do you know why I came to find you?" Lu Qingshan asked with a smile on his face.

"I don't know!" Jiang Yuan shook his head.

"I want to accept your maid as a true disciple and cultivate her as the next Sect Master. Originally, I valued you the most, but unfortunately, I know you have great ambitions and the small Tai Xuan Sect cannot keep you!"

Lu Qingshan poured a cup of tea for Jiang Yuan and himself, and said slowly and calmly.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Shu Xiaoxiao, and she immediately shook her head repeatedly.

"Young Master has shown me great kindness. Without Young Master, I would have long been trapped in a quagmire. How could I be who I am today? I only want to follow in Young Master's footsteps. I don't want anything else!"

Lu Qingshan shook his head slightly and sighed, "Alright then! I was prepared for this when I came here!"

He looked at Jiang Yuan and said, "I have one more request!"

"Sect Master, please speak!"

"If you have the opportunity in the future, within your capabilities, help the Tai Xuan Sect once!"

Jiang Yuan solemnly said, "Even without the Sect Master's request, I would do it. The Tai Xuan Sect has shown me kindness! I am not the kind of person who doesn't repay kindness!"

"I have seen how the Sect Master treats me, and I have great respect for Senior Kong!"

"Although I know you will achieve great things in the future, there are some things that I alone cannot decide!"

"The sect's resources are not up to me alone. As you know, the Tai Xuan Sect is divided into seven branches, with the Heavenly Pillar Peak as the main branch. I am only the nominal Sect Master. The final decision on major matters still needs to be voted on by the seven peak leaders and the elders!"

"I understand the Sect Master's meaning," Jiang Yuan nodded.

Lu Qingshan also nodded slightly, then said, "Do you think Gu Mo will agree if I accept him as a direct disciple?"

Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, "He should agree!"

"That's good!" Lu Qingshan's face immediately showed a smile.
