The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 95 Old Huang: Your Wife is Here (Part 2)

The battle is over.

Everything is already set in stone.

The people from the back of the mountain gradually came down.

Many of them arrived in a state of severe injury.

The same applies to Cheng Moyang and his group.

"Jiang Man won? How is that possible?" The short Yang Feng still couldn't believe it.

Especially when recalling the time at the stables, the other party was about to be kicked out of the Cloud Front Division.

In just a few months, they've defeated a whole bunch of people.

A poor man.

How did we get to this point?

"Let's take a look at the rankings first," Cheng Moyang said.

Although I had a general idea in mind, I still wanted to see for myself.

A few moments.

They saw Yun Qiansi's ranking on the list.

As expected, it was exactly as I had guessed.

Jiang Man's name was prominently displayed as the first place winner, followed by a comment.

Just a few words.

It seems to perfectly capture that person's spiritedness and unparalleled talent.

"One man defeated the entire Yunqian Division." Cheng Moyang breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Jiang Man was able to enter the top five of Yunqian Division, so his defeat is perfectly reasonable.

He made it into the top three, so even though he lost, he was still honorable.

He is now ranked first in Yunqian Division, and he is honored by this.

No one would say he's lost his number one spot.

They would only think that he had once been fortunate enough to overpower Jiang Man.

Even within the clan, no one would pay attention to him.

Because someone on the third floor was directly defeated.

That's what everyone should be focusing on.

All he needs to do is think about how to undo the previous offense.

One act of teasing, and it was quite cruel.

I wonder how much others gave.

In addition, you should first recover from your injuries, and then ask Fang Yong and Chang Qiwen, who were arrested together with you.

-

On the way down the mountain, Jiang Man endured the pain and walked ahead.

After a long silence, Li Yuan finally asked out of curiosity, "What would you have done if I hadn't come today?"

He pondered this question for a long time, but still had no answer.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Man glanced at the other party and calmly said, "I told you before that what I want is the number one position in Yunqian Division."

"If someone can't have it, can someone else have it?"

Yan Huimin was taken aback by the short sentence. She then thought of today's situation and guessed, "So back then, no one could obtain the qualification for the secret realm?"
"If the qualification is further delegated, it will naturally fall to the top spot?"

Li Yuan was also surprised, which meant that Jiang Man was going to defeat everyone from the very beginning.

What he can't have, he has to rearrange.

They might even regroup and form new teams.

In the end, he still managed to get it.

Alternatively, Yunqian Company may cancel the contract directly.

But the possibility is very low; Yunqian Si will definitely send out the three spots.

This is also extremely important to Yun Qiansi.

These slots didn't exist before, but now they do, and they can't be left vacant and wasted.

Ignoring Li Yuan's surprise, Jiang Man strode down the mountain.

While their surprise was delightful, their bodies were starting to give out.

If they stay, their image as an unparalleled genius will be tarnished.

evening.

Jiang Man returned to the stables alone.

He walked dejectedly into the room and slowly sat down.

My body trembled involuntarily.

Fresh blood was slowly flowing down, and the injury could no longer be contained.

"You overexerted yourself and your body is too weak to handle it," the old ox said calmly. "It's not a big problem, you just need some rest. But your situation is really rare."

"Few people can expand their bodies with spiritual energy in a normal state."

“Such is my talent, there’s nothing I can do about it,” Jiang Man said slowly.

The old ox remained silent for a moment, then turned and left the room.

Jiang Man shook his head. The old ox had changed; he didn't like to talk anymore.

However, luck played a part in our victory this time.

Defeating everyone is unrealistic; I'm just too weak.

It needs to be improved.

As a peerless genius, what he needs is to be able to calmly cope even when luck is not on his side.

After calming down, Jiang Man decided to rest for a while.

I'll get up and practice again in the middle of the night.

During the first half of the night, Jiang Man's name reached the ears of various families.

I'm very curious about whose side Jiang Man is working for.

However, after checking, it was found that there was no such item.

Many people regret that they offered too low a price initially.

No wonder they were all defeated.

Old Jin, who had searched for Jiang Man several times, spent a restless night.

He offended someone too badly.

The next day.

Jiang Man let out a heavy sigh of relief.

He stopped practicing.

The Heavenly Heart Seal has been handed over to the old ox, and he will be able to provide guidance soon.

As for the iron token, it was also given to Lao Huang for safekeeping.

He owed a large sum of spiritual energy because of these two things.

I need to do the math carefully and then start paying off the debt.

A few moments.

Jiang Man put down his pen.

Somewhat incredible.

A simple calculation shows that he owes a total of 43,000 yuan.

This is still assuming the twenty Spirit Gathering Pills Little Fatty gave me later are worth three hundred.

If it were at the price at that time, that would have been a huge sum of 50,000.

"Some can't afford to pay it back."

Logically, he should have paid off all these debts before heading to the sect.

But it took more than two months.

You can only earn six or seven thousand spirit resources.

We can't just borrow from some families because we're number one.
That would actually make you owe even more favors.

No wonder those families are unwilling to sponsor exceptionally talented but impoverished students without a contract; the debts are indeed tempting to renege on.

The feeling of an indefinite delay can easily breed resentment.

The gratitude felt when you receive a loan is genuine, but once you've weathered the crisis, you forget that gratitude.

—

Jiang Man sighed heavily.

He always remembered the matter of repaying the money, especially after becoming the first person in Yunqiansi, the first thing he had to do was repay the money.

However, he really had no way to deal with 40,000 to 50,000 spirit resources.

"Aren't you a peerless genius? You can't even handle 40,000 or 50,000 spirit resources?" the old ox said softly.

"My talent lies in cultivation, so it's normal that I can't do it. Even if I could, I'd just be robbing Peter to pay Paul," Jiang Man said without any attempt to hide his true feelings.

I am a genius in cultivation, not a genius in acquiring spiritual resources.

Of course, the main reason is that my cultivation level is not high enough.

Once you reach a higher level, everything will fall into place.

It just doesn't take that long.

But there's no rush, there's still plenty of time.

There will be a way.

Let's first understand the Heavenly Heart Seal, and then practice it a little.

The book clearly states that the Heavenly Heart Seal cannot be taught at the Cloud Forefront Bureau.

You need to go to the sect.

Of course, one can also figure it out on their own.

It does not affect its use.

This is a temporary technique, not something that the Cloud Guardian Division usually uses.

Therefore, even Mr. Fu and the others may not have cultivated it.

But it's definitely worth asking.

Their knowledge extends beyond just the arts of the Cloud Guardians; their ability to serve here naturally stems from their experience and knowledge.

In addition, now that the most difficult time has passed, we should prepare a thank-you gift for Mr. Zhao and the others.

It would be better to give a gift in the form of some kind of domestication.

After that, the old ox began to explain the Heavenly Heart Seal to Jiang Man.

The Heavenly Heart Seal surpasses even the highest-grade mortal techniques.

The formal content is incomprehensible even to look at. It requires a certain amount of systematic learning.

During the guidance process, the old ox reminded him: "For further improvement, you will need to systematically learn these contents. With the great restoration of the immortal sect, the cultivation methods and techniques have been revised, and all cultivation has a traceable path."

"The higher your cultivation level, the more you need to learn. The most difficult Qi Refining Techniques are only at the Upper Mortal Rank. It's not because there aren't any stronger techniques available, but because there's no need to learn them, and you can't learn them anyway."

"For example, this Heavenly Heart Seal."

Jiang Man nodded, deeply agreeing.

He couldn't understand this spell at all.

Even after listening to explanations, they only have a superficial understanding.

The explanation took a whole day, and while Jiang Man could understand it, it was a bit slow for him to digest it.

The old ox explained it well enough; it would be better if someone who doesn't understand it thoroughly explained it.

This content would probably take three days and three nights to explain.

As the explanation unfolds, the old ox will also chime in with reminders.

"Because this technique is not common and there is no one to guide you, it is normal for there to be some deviations."

"But I will try my best to reduce the deviation. You have to find out exactly where the deviation is, and then make corrections."

"The sample you provided is too small; I cannot fully deduce the logical direction of the spell."

Jiang Man nodded to indicate that he understood.

They then spent another two days explaining it.

Jiang Mancai fully absorbed it.

At present, I only understand how to cultivate, but it is hard to say when I will succeed in cultivating.

Furthermore, this Heavenly Heart Seal somewhat fails to live up to its difficulty.

The Heavenly Heart Seal, also known as the Formless Seal, has no inherent power, but becomes stronger when faced with a stronger opponent.

Whatever magic attack comes your way, you can retaliate with the same power.

Even if the opponent is a low-grade mortal, their power is still low-grade mortal.

There is no lower limit, but there is an upper limit.

The only advantage is that it consumes very little energy.

Regardless of the circumstances, even high-grade spells cannot defeat low-grade mortal spells.

"It seems capable of fighting against those above the mortal level, but its actual effectiveness is not as good as those above the mortal level. No wonder it was demoted to the Qi Refining level." Jiang Man sighed.

It has some effect on those above, but no effect on those below.

Even after being relegated to lower levels, few people in the Qi Refining Sect would actually practice there.

Suddenly, Jiang Man remembered something.

If you keep using your full strength, the opponent will use the Heavenly Heart Seal.

Does that mean we can't win no matter what?

Even if one possesses abundant spiritual energy, it cannot withstand the low energy expenditure of others.

In particular, every move is evenly matched.

Cultivation is indeed not as simple as I thought.

Afterwards, Jiang Man began to practice his magic, starting with the basics.

When Jiang Man tried to cultivate it, he found it to be several times more difficult than the Nine Clouds Dragon Suppression Technique.

The flow and vibration of spiritual energy require personal understanding and experimentation.

Furthermore, the time it takes for spiritual energy to pass through must be calculated in accordance with the length of the meridians in order to achieve resonance.

Everyone may appear the same, but their meridians are actually different.

You need to adjust the calculation yourself.

Even with his innate magical abilities, Jiang Man still spent half a day completing the first cycle.

All beginnings are hard.

Jiang Man felt a strong sense of accomplishment when the first operation was successful.

It then continued to operate.

He ran it a total of four times throughout the day.

It takes four tries to get the basics down.

this.
It will take quite a while to cultivate to the ninth level.

It's slow, difficult, and useless.

Jiang Man let out a heavy sigh of relief and said, "It's too difficult."

The old ox ate grass without saying a word.

Jiang Man truly felt that this magic spell had stumped him.

He thought to himself, "Looks like I'll have to go to the sect and look for something."

Then, I chose to accumulate spiritual energy.

He needs to use the remaining time to accumulate enough spiritual energy for the ninth "gourd".

In addition, both the physical and mental aspects must continue to improve.

It is best to join a sect with the ninth level of Qi Refining, the ninth level of Physical Body, and the ninth level of Spirit.

I'm currently at the ninth level of Qi Refining, the sixth level of Physical Body, and the sixth level of Spirit, but I still have a long way to go.

Time is a bit tight.

In the second half of June, Jiang Man spent his time learning the Heavenly Heart Seal and accumulating spiritual energy.

Then head to the Spirit Gathering Hall to earn Spirit Sources.

In half a month, you can earn around 1,300 yuan.

I earned half a month's worth of money, but it wasn't enough to cover the expenses of just one night back then.

End of June.

Jiang Man heard from Steward Miao that all the families were researching why he possessed such profound spiritual energy.

At first, they had no clue, but later they were given guidance by a certain gentleman from Yunqiansi.

Then some progress was made.

Now we are doing the final verification.

I expect we'll reach a conclusion in a few days.

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised.

But I'm not worried about anything.

He didn't care whether he knew or not.

For example, staying up late yourself and making others stay up late as well.

I'm never worried about being caught up.

Even geniuses have to call him a genius when they see him.

As for the abundant spiritual energy, it's actually quite simple: if someone gives him spiritual energy, he can truthfully tell them.

Unfortunately, no one gave him spiritual energy.

It's a bit late to recommend yourself now.

Tomorrow is July 1st, I need to ask Yunqiansi if there are any other rewards for first place.

night.

Jiang Man returned to the stable yard under the moonlight.

As soon as Jiang Man returned, he greeted the old ox with a smile: "Old Huang, are you eating?"

The old ox raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Jiang Man calmly, and said, "Someone is looking for you."

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised: "Who's looking for me?"

Previously, it was all people like Li Yuan.

They came to deliver spiritual energy.

They said they had offended him in the past.

Thinking about it, someone has indeed offended me and should apologize.

"You're back too late. People are waiting for you inside." After saying that, the old ox lowered its head and continued grazing.

Hearing this, Jiang Man didn't care, since there was nothing of value in the house anyway.

Go in then.

As long as the other party doesn't mind that it's simple inside.

Immediately, Jiang Man went to the door and opened it slammed open.

He had only opened the door halfway when his hand suddenly froze in mid-air.

He then gently closed the door.

He stiffly turned his head to look at the old ox: "Old ox, am I seeing things?"

The old ox, head down, ate the weeds it had planted, and without looking up, said, "What are you seeing with your eyes?"

"How should I put it, she's just a very amazing person," Jiang Man said somewhat incoherently.

"You might be seeing things. Take another look." The old ox continued grazing.

Looking at the weeds that were almost completely eaten, Jiang Man took a deep breath and then opened the door again.

A creaking sound rang out.

The house, illuminated by the moonlight, was brightly lit inside.

Immediately, he saw a woman sitting upright on the edge of the bed.

The moment he looked over, the man also slightly raised his eyebrows and met Jiang Man's gaze.

The gentle gaze is soothing, making one feel as if they are on a lake with a gentle breeze.

She wore a blue dress, spotless.

Her delicate features, though unadorned, radiated a dazzling glow.

A bright red pattern between his eyebrows was exceptionally striking.

Her temperament was as serene as the moon, and a single glance from her was like a gentle breeze, exuding an ethereal, otherworldly aura.

After seeing the other person's face clearly, Jiang Man gently closed the door again.

He took a deep breath and said to the old ox, "Old ox, something suddenly comes up, and I want to go back to the village to take a look."

"No need for deep breaths, face reality." The old ox looked at Jiang Man and said, "Your wife has come to see you."

Jiang Man fell silent.

"Good thing, your wife didn't run away," the old ox said casually. "You don't need to ask me to find you another one."

creak!

The door suddenly opened from the inside.

A beautiful figure appeared in front of the doorway. She looked at Jiang Man and asked softly, "Does my husband not like seeing me?"
