Battle Through the Heavens: My Grandfather is a Six-Star Dou Sheng

Chapter 99 Zi Yan in Seclusion

"Elder Qingshan, it's been a long time. I'm so grateful to have Elder Qingshan come to pick me up this time."

Qingshan stared at Jiang Xing, his eyes filled with astonishment.

He originally thought that even if Jiang Xing was exceptionally talented, it would be extremely difficult for him to achieve such a huge breakthrough in just three years.

However, the facts were right in front of him: Jiang Xing had not only successfully broken through to the level of a half-saint, but had even reached the level of a high-level half-saint. Such speed was simply astonishing.

"Young friend Jiang Xing, your rate of improvement is truly ashamed of even this old man." Qingshan's voice carried a hint of envy and admiration.

Jiang Xing smiled slightly and said, "Senior Qingshan, you flatter me. I was just lucky."

……

The two exchanged pleasantries again.

Qingshan brought Jiang Xing to Dragon Island. During the journey, Jiang Xing learned from Qingshan that Zhu Li had recently gone into seclusion to prepare for breaking through to the Dou Sheng realm.

Jiang Xing was quite surprised by this, thinking that Zhu Li's improvement was quite rapid.

Jiang Xing naturally followed up with a compliment.

Jiang Xing: "That's wonderful. If Zhu Li can break through to the Dou Sheng realm, the Taixu Ancient Dragon will have gained another Dou Sheng powerhouse."

Qingshan waved his hand.

Qingshan: "Young friend Jiang Xing, have you come to Dragon Island to see the Dragon Emperor?"

Jiang Xing nodded and said, "I just came out of seclusion. I heard that Zi Yan went into seclusion and hasn't been to the Jiang family for a long time. I was a little worried, so I came to see her."

Qingshan said, "The Dragon Emperor has indeed gone into seclusion."

Jiang Xing asked if he had obtained the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit.

Qingshan was puzzled. How did Jiang Xing know this?

Jiang Xing, fearing that Qingshan might overthink things, said that Ziyan had come to tell her grandfather before she went into seclusion.

Qingshan suddenly realized that they knew their Dragon Emperor often visited the Jiang family and was close to them, so he did not doubt what Jiang Xing said about the Dragon Emperor.

Qingshan nodded, indicating that he had indeed obtained the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit.

Jiang Xing recalled that in the original story, Zi Yan seemed to have encountered some mishaps while refining the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, so he asked about Zi Yan's current situation. He was a little worried that the Ancient Dragon Island didn't know how to use the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit. Jiang Xing remembered that in the original story, it seemed that Xiao Yan helped Zi Yan refine it, but he didn't know the specifics of how he helped. So if the Ancient Dragon Island really didn't know how to refine the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, he would have to go to the Ancient Emperor's Cave to ask Zhu Kun.

Jiang Xing was thinking about how to subtly ask them if they knew how to refine the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit.

Qingshan didn't know what Jiang Xing was thinking, but he could tell that Jiang Xing was worried about his Dragon Emperor, so he comforted him, "Don't worry, young friend Jiang Xing, the Dragon Emperor is being watched over by our elders, so nothing will happen."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

In the original story, when Zi Yan was refining the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, Dragon Island was not unified, so no one on East Dragon Island knew how to refine it. Now it's different. Dragon Island has returned, and those older generation of Taixu Ancient Dragon experts have returned. Presumably, some of them should know how to refine the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit.

Jiang Xing did not make a request to see Zi Yan because he knew it would be inappropriate.

Although he had done Ancient Dragon Island a great favor, Jiang Xing would not make such a rude request because it concerned some secrets of the Ancient Dragon of the Void.

Therefore, Jiang Xing simply told Qingshan that if Ziyan needed anything, he hoped Qingshan would let him know, as he might be able to help.

Qingshan knew that Jiang Xing was worried about the Dragon Emperor, so he smiled and agreed, thanking him.

Jiang Xing came to Dragon Island only to confirm whether Zi Yan had truly obtained the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit. Now that he had the answer, Jiang Xing said, "Since Zi Yan isn't here, I won't bother you any longer. If Zi Yan comes out of seclusion, please ask Qingshan to tell her that Jiang Yue misses her and invites her to visit the Jiang family when she has time."

Qingshan knew that Jiang Yue was Jiang Xing's daughter, and that his own Dragon Emperor would definitely go to the Jiang family after emerging from seclusion, so he naturally agreed.

……

Inside the meditation room.

"Phew, it's been over a year, and I still haven't been able to break through to the Dou Sheng level."

Jiang Xing sighed. It was indeed not easy for a half-saint to break through to the Dou Sheng realm.

Jiang Xing was still obsessed with the speed of improvement in the secret realm. After leaving the secret realm, he actually wanted to break through to the Dou Sheng level in just over a year.

Jiang Xing dismissed his unrealistic idea and stood up.

"The spatial trade fair is about to begin, it's time to go and retrieve the Nine-Colored Origin Stone and the Demon Flame Remnant Map."

Jiang Xing walked out of the cultivation room.

The Space Trade Fair is a high-level trade fair jointly organized by the three major sects. It not only offers various high-grade pills, but also features Heaven-rank cultivation techniques and combat skills.

However, this trade fair is not open to just anyone. To participate in this spatial trade fair, one needs to obtain an invitation from one of the three major sects. Obtaining an invitation is quite simple: one must have reached the Dou Zun level in strength, or have a force that possesses a Dou Zun level expert.

Of course, some forces with Dou Sheng level experts would not invite them either. One reason is that Dou Sheng level experts generally look down on what's inside, but the main reason is that the three major sects know that if a Dou Sheng level expert were to participate, they would not be able to control him.

With Jiang Cheng present, the Jiang family naturally did not receive an invitation.

However, this was no problem for Jiang Xing. He simply went to a power in the eastern part of Zhongzhou and threatened it a little, and that power obediently handed over the invitation.

The day of the Space Trade Fair arrived as scheduled. Jiang Xing brought the pills he had prepared earlier and was about to go alone.

However, just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by a clear voice.

"Daddy, where are you going?" Jiang Yue asked curiously, blinking her bright eyes.

Jiang Xing turned around and looked at his daughter's expectant eyes. He didn't hide anything and said frankly, "There's a space trade fair in Zhongzhou. I plan to go and find some treasures."

"Taobao? That sounds like a lot of fun! I want to go, I want to go!" Jiang Yue got excited as soon as she heard the word "Taobao" and grabbed Jiang Xing's sleeve, refusing to let go.

Although the Space Trade Fair was a mixed bag of people, Jiang Xing had already reached the advanced half-saint realm, so protecting his daughter was no problem. Therefore, Jiang Xing did not refuse and decided to take Jiang Yue with him.

He affectionately patted his daughter's head and smiled, "Okay, then let's go together."

So, Jiang Xing took Jiang Yue and headed towards the location of the Space Trade Fair.

Throughout the journey, Jiang Yue kept asking Jiang Xing curiously, "Dad, what is this space trading event? Is it fun?"

Jiang Xing wasn't annoyed by this and patiently explained it to her.

The space trade fair was held in a desolate desert.

Here, yellow sand fills the sky, and people rarely visit; it seems to be a corner forgotten by the world.

This also avoided a lot of unnecessary disturbances and crowds, allowing the trade fair to proceed in a peaceful atmosphere.
