For what looked to be a long passing of time in the Supreme Pagoda, only wo hours had gone by in the real world
Jiang Ming walked out of the room and went up the roof. Gazing at the galaxy far beyond, he took a deep breath. It gave him an indescribable feeling of serenity.
Laying back on the rattan chair, he checked his Status and noticed there were some changes. The Spell column had been removed, while the Special Ability section had been separated into different types. The rest did not change much.
With 7600 years of cultivation, the mana accumulated in his sea of consciousness had reached its peak
If he consumed them, the benefits would be insignificant, but if left to overflow, the mana would only dissipate away.
Currently, what Jiang Ming was comprehending was the Sambodha, what he was trying to form was the Dao Seed, and what he was cultivating was his cultivation realm.
Although it might seem that there are not many changes to his physique, he had reached the current physical limits.
The Grand Path Almighty Method Sutra and physical training were linked together, but even then, cultivating both at the same time still would not be enough to help him break through.
His battle prowess, however, had grown immensely. “Never would I have guessed that the Great Manifestation Technique would actually be a supreme-grade special ability. This is really a surprise!” exclaimed Jiang Ming
He figured that the Great Akasa Formless Sword Qi would be considered to be of supreme-grade as well, and the Verdant Emperor Spirit Transformation
Technique being a supreme-grade special ability was not surprising either.
Suddenly, Jiang Ming saw a figure flying toward him from afar and landed right next to him. It turmed out it was Zi Linglong. “Senior Brother, let’s just squeezea little,” she said as she leaned against Jíang
Ming, who was trying to inch over to the other side. “You little girl, why don’t you go for a rest?” Jiang Ming asked.
Zi Linglong remained by his side and fluffed up his shoulder like a pillow, latching on comfortably.
The soft night breeze blew comfortably, tickling his face as her hair swayed around. “T’ve just completed a part of my training and came running over whenI saw you were awake!” Zi Linglong said happily. ‘
Brother, you used to be a deep sleeper and seldomly wake up in the middle of she asked curiously, “Senior the night. What’s wrong”
With a big smile on his face, Jiang Ming replied, “Tve also just finished my cultivation and came out for some fresh air. Linglong, do you need any help with your cultivation?”
Zi Linglong reached out and clung on to his neck, inching nearer and nearer until half of her body was already bearing down on him. “You’ve grown so much, and you’re still squeezing on to me.” Jiang Ming huffed. “Well, I always slept on top of you when we were kids. I’m older now, but that doesn’t mean I can’t do it anymore. From now on, you are my pillo,” Zí
Linglong replied with a cheeky smile as she squinted her eyes.
Jiang Ming muttered, “You can even kill a Primal Spirit expert with your strength. If you suddenly get agitated, you might end upf bits. I won’t be able to rest in peace!” ening me into “Just relax, Senior Brother! My phoenix bloodline has the ability to reincamate.
Even if you really burst into pieces, I can easily fix you up.” Zi Linglong grinned. “Yes, you are all that!” Jiang Ming sneered.
Zi Linglong continued to snuggle up to him. “Hehe! It’s really comfortable laying on you. So don’t move! I want to take a nap!” “Well, I want to take a nap to0,” Jiang Ming muttered.
Zi Linglong lay on top of Jiang Ming and continued teasing one another before falling asleep together.
AS the sun rose steadily up the eastern sky, the warm sunlight slowly crept its way over, illuminating Mother Earth. The two finally woke up from their deep sleep. “That was a really good sleep:” Zi Linglong yawned with her eyes still half-opened. She did not climb down from Jiang Ming but instead snuggled even closer onto his neck for comfort. “The sun is already up. You are killing me here.” Jiang Ming huffed. “Brother, let me sleep just for a bit more. Early momings are the best timeto sleep. Pretty please?” Zi Linglong begged as she refused to come down.
Jiang Ming simply flipped over, placing her down before waking up himself. “I’m making breakfast!” he said as he jumped off and went off to prepare their breaktast.
Zi Linglong continued to snuggle on the rattan chair with the biggest smile on her tace.
As the sun finally rose, illuminating everyone and everything, Zi Linglong finally got up and saw that Jiang Ming had already prepared a table full of food. “Brother, what’s this? It looks murky and sticky,” asked Zi Linglong curiously. “This is black pepper soup. Have a taste. Maybe you might like it. If not, then go for those white soft looking things on the side. This is Tofu Pudding. They are much lighter and retreshing answered jlang Ming while dipping his bun into the black pepper sauce, taking a big bite. The crispy bun covered with the gooey black pepper soup tasted heavenly!
Zi Linglong looked at the gooey black pepper soup and frowned. She stirred the soup around with her spoon and muttered, “Brother, this soup looks unappetizing. I know there’s mutton, yellow flower herbs, purple fungus, and even prawns in them, but it still looks really hard to swallow!”
Jiang Ming could only ask her to give it a try. “Well, you made them for me. So I guess I must give them a try,” Zi Linglong murmured as she took a sip hesitantly. “Delicious!” Zi Linglong praised as she continued to sip more and more of the black pepper soup.
As Jiang Ming smiled in delight, an announcement could suddenly be heard in his mind. “Ding! Congratulations! Master has hada delicious breakfast with
Junior Sister. Reward of 10 days of cultivation is awarded!”. This made his smile spread.
They finished up their breakfast, and just as Jiang Ming was about to sit down after doing the dishes, Zi Linglong had already prepareda pot of tea and was walking toward him. “Come, little girl, sit,” said Jíang Ming as he patted the seat next to him.
Zi Linglong hugged onto his arms, sat next to him, swinging around, and asked, “Brother, what is it?”
I have something for you.” Jiang Ming smiled as he flipped over his hands, revealing a piece of red crystal. The crystal was scarlet red and looked somewhat ominous. Even though the crystal was sealed, a threatening aura dispersed out of it, sending chills down one’s spine.
This is.” Zi Linglong gasped when she saw the crystal lying in Jiang Ming’s palm. Her eyes were staring wide at the scarlet crystal in disbelief. “This looks like the Phoenix’s Blood!?”
Jiang Ming simply nodded. “This is actually the Phoenixs Blood Essence. The phoenix’s will has already been refined, and its raging power has been suppressed. Consuming it now is completely safe and should be very beneficial you. “Here you go. Don’t ask questions,” Jiang Ming said as he handed Zi Linglong the crystal. “Thank you, Brother!” Zi Linglong thanked Jiang Ming. She had so many queries and confusions on how he had gotten them in the first place but ended up not asking any questions and simply thanked him for it.
Jiang Ming followed up with another jade box sealed with 10 herbs. Just by looking at the Yin-Yang aura lingering around the herbs, one could tell they
Were exotic items. “These are 10 blades of king-grade Yin-Yang Sword Grass. It helps a lot with the cultivation of the Yin-Yang Dao,” Jiang Ming explained as he tossed her the
OX.
Jiang Ming had gotten the items from trading with Feng Wu. The Phoenix
Blood was of the immortal grade, which only cost him 1 point; the same went for the 10 blades of Yin-Yang Sword Grass. n the past, he couldn’t give anything to her because he wasn’t strong enough and would invite suspicion from others. Another reason was he couldn’t find any explanation for how he got them in the first place.
Even though Jiang Ming had the Supreme Order now, he still could not let others know of the items’ origins, but at least he felt the reason was good enough.
He now had the confidence and the ability to face the world. Of course, he
Would start to train his Junior sister.
Jiang Ming called up the Human Path Record and took a look at his relationship with Zi Linglong to see that there were no changes, and it remains at 97.
Her Status, however, stated: ‘My goodness! How does Brother Jiang own such an immortal-grade Artifact? Did he stumble upon Immortal encounters? That must be it!
Seeing her Status in the Human Path Record, Jiang Ming smiled as he explained, Tve gotten some lucky Immortal encounters, that’s all. Don’t pry!” “Ha! Thats where you got them!T knew it! With your vast knowledge and peerless talent, how would you be weaker than anyone? Brother Jiang, I think you can continue pretending to be weak and let me handle the problems outside. You can continue your cultivation in the shadows,” exclaimed Zi
Linglong, who was delighted for Jlang Ming but was still a little perplexed.
Jiang Ming noticed that her Status had added yet another row: “Brother Jiang had Immortal encounters? That’s really good news. In the future, with both of us working together, we can kill the Nine Heavens!’
Reading this, Jiang Ming had a weird thought that Zi Linglong was arranging for her to deal with the affairs outside and arranging himself to deal with internal affairs.
As Zi Linglong went back to continue her cultivation, Jiang Ming walked to the back of the mountain. He pondered long at the 5 acres of planted lands and decided just to destroy all of them, leaving only an acre of farmland.
He turned around and entered into the underground void that he had openedIt was enclosed with a formation evoked from the Life and Death
Disillusionment Formation Disk. Jiang Ming knew now that this disk’s grade was exceptionally good and actually on par with an immortal-grade Dao
Vessel.
The void was huge, and an immortal-grade spiritual fountain was standing in the middle of it. It was constantly communicating with the ley line, absorbing the heaven and earth spiritual essence and turning it into an immortal-grade spiritual fluid.
An immortal-grade Enlightening Tree seed could be seen starting to bud in the middle of the fountain.
Pondering for a bit, Jiang Ming suddenly announced, “From now on, this here will be called the Chuyang Cave!
He started to evoke spatial energy to widen the land further, reaching a total of 10 acres wide. Four acres were lands surrounding the spiritual fountain and were recognized by the system as fertile land.
Jiang Ming evoked the Life and Death Disillusionment Formation Disk once again, placing a bundle of low-grade energy crystals into it.
Upon detecting the loW-grade energy crystal, the formation started operating to whittle away at the energy crystal, turning them into gaseous spiritual essence, which intensified the cave’s spiritual essence to its limit in an instant!
At the same time, waves of patterns started coming out of the formation. Some of them followed the ley lines into the ground while others reached out into the air as if following an invisible network, triggering the power of the orders of heaven and earth. It slowly covered the entire cave, permeating through
Chuyang Peak, quietly raising the sect’s defense.
All of a sudden, the spiritual fountain was suddenly stimulated by the gaseous spiritual essence in the air and started to hum. These gaseous spiritual essences were slowly pulled toward the fountain, condensing and saturating until they eventually turmed into top-grade spiritual fluid! “Incredible! This really works” exclaimed Jiang Ming euphorically as he continued adding two more bundles of those low-grade energy crystals into the fomation.
Jiang Ming thought for a while before deciding to plant more seeds into the land, namely the Ancient ‘Tree of War’s seed, Flower Fairy Tree’s seed, Scarlet
Fruit’s seed, Phoenix Blood Crystal Rice, and many more.
All of these seeds were considered rare elixir seeds, which even the worst among thenm were of high grade. There was even a chance for these seeds to grow into a King of Medicine. It was a shame that he could not plant them as densely like he did before because the seed’s grade was so high that it might not even bud when it was planted too near to each other
Jiang Ming quickly finished farming the four acres of land and came to realize that there was no reward given by the system this time around. “I destroyed the previous plot of land and reopened this land. Maybe that’s why there’s no reward this time.” speculated Jiang Ming
He reasoned that this might be a way to prevent people from cheating, but he paid no heed. It would be absurd if he could keep destroying and replanting the few acres of land repeatedly and receive rewards for doing so. “The spiritual essence has become so saturated, turning into rain clouds and irrigating the whole plot of land. With such great conditions, there’s bound to be a bountiful harvest in the future! I can’t wait!” exclaimed Jiang Ming. “Everythings all set in place and ready for the next crucial part. Hopefully, the
Verdant Emperor Spirit Transformation Technique can effectively help speed up the plants’ growthl” thought Jiang Ming as he leaped up enthusiastically and sat cross-legged atop the middle of the patch of land.
He started to slowly evoke the Verdant Emperor Spirit Transformation
Technique, which caused waves and waves of green aura to appear, radiating through and engulfing the four acres of land.
