The Ji Family's Pride

Chapter 72: The Original Intention is Not Easy
Inside the room, a powerful aura emerged from Ji Xiaoshan's body, and array runes on the wall flickered slightly.

"You've suddenly realized it?" Wan Nianfeng was stunned, his eyes full of disbelief. "How long has it been? Have you improved again?"

Having spent so many years in the Black and White Academy, he was very familiar with the nine chapters of the Taoist Canon. This was a unique skill of the Heavenly Immortal, and although only the first five chapters remained, its power was still intact.

He was very familiar with the first move of the Nine Chapters of the Wooden Ruler, "Hearing the Truth in the Morning". He had personally experienced it once when he was sparring with Ji Xiaoshan three years ago. Now that this extremely familiar aura was exploding in front of him at close range, he was extremely helpless.

Wan Nianfeng's mind moved, and he raised his hand, and a round, dark formation plate appeared in his hand.

At the moment when Ji Xiaoshan's aura exploded, he was directly hit by Wan Nianfeng into the void in the corner of the room.

"I really owe you!" Wan Nianfeng sighed helplessly. Although he was not very familiar with formations, he had a lot of Yuan Liquid in his hands. Formations were indispensable for a cultivator when he went out, so he spent a lot of Yuan Liquid to buy many different types of formation plates in Tianbao Mountain and stored them in the storage magic weapon. It was convenient and fast.

"call!"

In the side room, the mysterious aura on Ji Xiaoshan's body quietly retreated, and a pair of eyes that had been closed at some point quietly opened.

“No matter how difficult the road is, my original intention will not change. This is the second style of the nine chapters of the wooden ruler - the original intention is not easy to change! This simple truth took me nearly three years to understand.” Ji Xiaoshan sighed.

This is worthy of being the unique ruler technique of the Black and White Immortals. It took nearly three years just to learn the first form, and then he polished it while turning it into a sword, making it more suitable for sword cultivators to use. This was only possible after he gained the sword insights of the Northern Sword Cultivator.

Now, at this moment, an inspiration finally struck him, and he broke through the last bottleneck of the second move in one fell swoop.

"It's so refreshing! The things that I couldn't figure out before, I figured them out in an instant." Ji Xiaoshan said with a smile.

For cultivators walking in this world, their Tao heart is like a mirror that needs to illuminate themselves at all times. However, over time, it will accumulate a lot of dust and needs to be wiped frequently to keep it looking like new.

"You are so straightforward. But I lost a formation plate that can block the aura." Wan Nianfeng's eyes widened immediately after hearing this. "I bought this formation plate at Tianbao Mountain. It is of very high quality. It can block even the divine sense of the earthly immortal level. But it cost me a lot of money."

"Hahaha." Ji Xiaoshan laughed. "Brother Minghong, I was a little reckless this time. I should find a quiet room to meditate. However, this flash of inspiration is so fleeting that I can't think too much about it. Don't you like the Drunken Immortal Fruit Wine from Zuixianju? I'll buy five jars as an apology to you."

Ji Xiaoshan's strength had just improved, so he was naturally in a very good mood. The 500 kilograms of Yuan Liquid as an apology was considered quite sincere.

"Hmm?" Wan Nianfeng's eyes lit up. The five jars of Drunken Immortal Fruit Wine together weighed 500 kilograms of Yuan Liquid, which was quite good. "Well. If you have these five jars of Drunken Immortal Fruit Wine, then I will let you go."

"Okay, I'll call the boy over right away." Ji Xiaoshan nodded and left the room.

……

When Ji Xiaoshan returned to the room, the boy followed him.

Ji Xiaoshan looked around and saw that the array disk that was floating in a corner had already been collected by Wan Nianfeng. This array disk only consumed some energy, and then it could be used again after replenishing some energy fluid. He also knew that it was not only used once. Such a treasure was naturally collected.

"Minghong, the Immortal Drunken Fruit Wine you asked for is here." Ji Xiaoshan sat back and smiled as he watched the servant bring five jars of wine.

"Senior, this is the wine you requested." The servant's eyes were filled with lingering joy, and his words became more humble and gentle. He respectfully placed jars of fine wine on the table.

"Well. Just put it on the table." Wan Nianfeng nodded, "Waiter, I wonder if there is a Tianbao Mountain opened in this place on Qianqiu Island?"

In the Daxia world, there are only three things that exist in almost every large gathering place for immortal cultivators. One is the Daxia city, one is Tianbao Mountain, and the rest is the Yinglongwei branch.

The former represents the authority of the Great Xia world, where all the land under heaven belongs to the king. The latter two start from consolidating the rule of each party.

Tianbao Mountain traded with countless immortal cultivators and brought countless treasures to the Daxia royal family. The latter's Yinglongwei was a sword hanging by the neck to intimidate the immortal cultivators.

"Tianbao Mountain? My Qianqiu Island gathers cultivators from the vast territory of the North Sea, so of course there are some. Senior, do you want to go to Tianbao Mountain?" The servant said respectfully. "Senior, you are here at a very clever time. The day after tomorrow, Tianbao Mountain will hold the Treasure Fair that is held once every ten years. If you are interested, you can wait for two days. I heard that even immortal-level magic weapons will appear at this treasure fair."

"Oh? Okay, I understand." Wan Nianfeng glanced at the boy and nodded slightly.

"Here, this is 600 kilograms of Yuan Liquid. Get out. If you try like this again, watch out for your head." Ji Xiaoshan said calmly, his face showing no emotion. An extremely powerful aura burst out like a flood, and all fell on the boy.

The boy's face turned pale instantly, his body was shaky, and beads of sweat flowed instantly. He said with a trembling voice, "Yes, I don't dare anymore."

"Remember it and get out!" Ji Xiaoshan shook his head. Looking at the back of the servant, he thought and the door of the wing room closed instantly.

"This is not like your character. How come your cultivation has improved and your personality has also changed a little?" Wan Nianfeng said casually after checking the jars of Drunken Immortal Fruit Wine one by one and putting them into the storage magic weapon.

"I just figured out some things." Ji Xiaoshan shook his head. "The boy tried to test us with words several times before. He must want to confirm where we are going. We need to be careful."

"I discovered it, too. It's probably because of what happened at Chaoyin Immortal Mansion and the fact that I spent 600 kilograms of Yuanye to buy this fruit wine. I just need to be careful. At least they don't dare to do anything on Qianqiu Island."

"That boy just mentioned the treasure fair of Tianbao Mountain. I don't need anything right now. Even if it is a first-class magic weapon, with my Wanxiang realm, I can't refine it." Ji Xiaoshan said softly, "Besides, it would take at least several million kilograms of Yuanye to buy it. With that Yuanye, I could have broken through to Yuanshen Daoren or even Earthly Immortal long ago."

"You? Even if I give you millions of kilograms of Yuanye, you still can't break through. To break through the Yuanshen Taoist, one must at least comprehend a way. If I remember correctly, you are still far from it now!" Wan Nianfeng smiled slightly.

The Black and White Academy requires its disciples to comprehend at least one path before they can break through to the next realm, and Ji Xiaoshan's strongest sword music path in these years is still a long way from perfection.

Ji Xiaoshan glanced at him and said softly, "Let's leave here first and go to Tianbao Mountain to find a place to stay. Tianbao Mountain should be safer with the Great Xia Emperor standing behind us."

"Okay." Wan Nianfeng had already put away all the Immortal Drunken Fruit Wine and stood up. "It's a good opportunity to get rid of the things I don't need so that I can go find the Chaoyin Immortal Mansion earlier."

……

Tianbaoshan Branch of Qianqiu Island.

“Although I have figured out the second move of the Nine Chapters of Wooden Ruler, I still need to modify it into a sword move that is more suitable for my use. Otherwise, it will never be as convenient as the Lingxiao Sword Canon.” The figure in Taoist robes sitting cross-legged sighed softly.

He had been thinking about this for the past two days since he came to Tianbao Mountain. It was possible to perform the Rule Method with a sword, but the sword method was more flexible. The Rule Method was much heavier, more powerful, and had a wide range of openings and closings.

"If you can use three heads and six arms to perform the nine chapters of the wooden ruler in a fight, it would be quite mysterious. Anyway, the purpose of learning the nine chapters of the wooden ruler in the first place is to learn by analogy and find a path that suits me. The Lingxiao Sword Canon is also very powerful, and there is still room for improvement."

Lingxiao swordsmanship is one of the best swordsmanship in the Black and White Academy. It is naturally extraordinary. Ji Xiaoshan often uses this swordsmanship to fight against the enemies.

"Well, the time for Minghong to attend the treasure fair is approaching. Well, let's go and take a look."
