Primordial Era: Jade Cauldron Forgot to Take on Disciples

Chapter 15 Su Daji's Plot!

"Two~"

After much deliberation, Yang Jian decided to say twenty years. After all, he was living under someone else's roof, and if he really said two days, things might not end well today.

"Two hundred years? No wonder he has such strength."

Su Quanxiao exclaimed, "I've heard that major immortal sects have methods for cultivating strongmen. The longer they cultivate, the stronger they become. Seeing this today, I can see that they are indeed extraordinary."

I originally thought you were practicing the orthodox methods of the Xuanmen sect, but it turns out you're also on the path of Taiyi.

Seeing that he had already set a time for cultivation, Yang Jian could only nod in agreement.

The explanation of the Taiyi Daoist path was found on the bamboo slips containing the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts given to him by Shen Gongbao.

The path of immortality is divided into Taiyi and Daluo.

Cultivating the orthodox methods of the Xuanmen sect to enter the Dao and become an immortal, even at the level of a human immortal, can be called a Great Luo Immortal, with limitless potential.

Those who enter the Dao through unorthodox methods and achieve immortality become Taiyi Immortals, but can only reach the Golden Immortal realm at most. If they do not change their cultivation methods, they can only remain Golden Immortals for their entire lives.

However, ordinary cultivators would be grateful if they could become immortals, let alone become golden immortals.

The cultivation of the orthodox Xuanmen method is difficult, and progress is hard, but the strength is formidable. Have you not heard that the Jade Void Palace is famous for having only twelve Golden Immortals?

These twelve Golden Immortals made a name for themselves in the prehistoric world, each capable of establishing their own dojo and securing a place for themselves in the world.

Unorthodox paths often involve alchemy, swordsmanship, talismanic arts, etc., which allow for rapid cultivation and advancement, and result in formidable combat power in the early stages.

Unless you belong to a prestigious sect, you will follow the path of Taiyi.

As for the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, it does not belong to the distinction between Taiyi and Daluo, because the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts is an ancient shamanic cultivation method that mainly enhances supernatural powers and does not follow the path of immortality.

As for why Yang Jian's cultivation level improved, it was a side effect of the human race's cultivation of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

"Uncle Meng said you've come to choose weapons, right? Come with me."

After wiping the dust off his upper body, Su Quanxiao put on his robe and addressed Yang Jian.

Yang Jian picked up Blackie, who was sleeping soundly in the sun, and followed him.

The cat that Hei Ye in her arms smelled the alluring scent of Yang Jian's blood.

A pair of eyes suddenly opened, and a voice transmission was sent to Yang Jian: "Injured? Don't waste it, let me lick it."

As he spoke, he began to crawl toward the wound on Yang Jian's left arm.

Yang Jian hurriedly reached out and grabbed him, and only after much persuasion did he manage to calm him down.

"I didn't expect Brother Yang to have such leisure and refined tastes. That's right, cultivating the Tao is inherently tedious and boring, so having a companion to relieve boredom is quite nice."

Su Quanxiao joked from the side.

After discovering Yang Jian's extraordinary strength, his attitude became humble, polite, and approachable.

"By the way, are you really Zheng Lun's junior brother? Why is he so ugly because he cultivated supernatural powers, while you are completely different from him?"

Yang Jian shook his head: "I am a disciple of Shen Gongbao, a nominal disciple of Yuxu Palace. I am not a fellow disciple of Zheng Lun. We just met by chance. Our masters had a past relationship, so they introduced me here to try my luck in obtaining a title."

"So you're a top disciple of Jade Void Palace, no wonder~ It seems I had preconceived notions and caused quite a misunderstanding."

Su Quanxiao said with a hint of apology, but in his heart he looked down on Yang Jian. Among the top immortal sects in the world, he hadn't even managed to get a weapon. It seemed that he wasn't doing very well. It was no wonder that he would run into Zheng Lun.

The two arrived at a heavily guarded camp. Upon seeing that it was Su Quanxiao, the guards lowered their guard and opened the gate.

Su Quanxiao pointed to the gleaming weapons on the shelf: "Choose whatever you like."

Yang Jian looked around and finally chose a long halberd made of ancient bronze from the East Sea. It weighed nearly three thousand catties and was quite handy to use.

At least I don't have to carry around that broken bronze spear like before.

The two emerged from the armory.

Su Quanxiao suddenly asked, "Did Zheng Lun only bring you this time? I remember he said before that he had a good brother who was a genius, and that they worked together seamlessly, and that the two of them could fight immortals together. I wonder if he was just bragging."

Yang Jian guessed that the other party was referring to General Chen Qi, but at this time, the two generals, Heng and Ha, had not yet made a name for themselves, and Chen Qi was still working under some warlord.

He shook his head and said, "No, but Su Daji, the daughter of Marquis Su, was in the procession that came here. I don't know if she is the young marquis's older or younger sister."

Su Quanxiao frowned upon hearing this: "Su Daji? My father only has one son, me. Where did this daughter come from?"

"Zheng Lun couldn't possibly be unaware that my father has no daughter. It seems he's conspiring with someone to plot something sinister."

He asked sternly, "Where is Su Daji?"

"Zheng Lun said he would take Su Daji to the Marquis's camp to report back."

Yang Jian subconsciously sensed something was wrong; he must have gotten himself into some messy trouble.

As expected, nothing good ever comes from encountering Su Daji; I shouldn't have come out in the first place.

It seems that Su Daji must be a fox spirit. He should have turned around and left the moment he heard Su Daji's name.

The Demon Eye between the eyebrows is not the Eye of Truth. If he could see whether Daji was a human or a fox, he would not have ended up in this situation.

Then he realized that even the tiger demon in his arms, who was at the immortal level, couldn't see through Daji's true form.

What puzzled him most was that this did not match any of the familiar scripts for the Investiture of the Gods.

However, since Yu Ding didn't accept him as a disciple, it's not surprising that Su Daji appeared so early.

He had originally thought that his familiarity with the script of the Investiture of the Gods would allow him to thrive during the great calamity.

It now seems that there will be many obstacles along the way, and strengthening our capabilities is the only right path.

If the Great Tribulation of the Gods is like a whirlpool in the river, then going with the flow will only make you sink deeper and deeper.

Only by being a stone at the bottom can one remain unaffected by the prevailing trends.

"Come with me and expose Zheng Lun's treacherous scheme. I'd also like to see what kind of person Su Daji really is, daring to set her sights on our Su family."

After Su Quanxiao finished speaking, he quickly left. Halfway there, he turned back and saw that Yang Jian had not followed and was still hesitating in the same spot.

His face suddenly darkened: "Why aren't you leaving! Could it be that you're an accomplice too?"

The guards beside the armory sensed something was wrong and drew their swords, looking at Yang Jian with eager anticipation.

They were just waiting for the young marquis's order to perform meritorious service on the spot.

The atmosphere suddenly turned tense and somber.

The black-clad creature that Yang Jian was holding instantly became excited.

He transmitted his voice, "Is dinner ready?"

Yang Jian knew he couldn't shake off this trouble; only two paths lay before him.

Follow Su Quanxiao to expose Su Daji, or go on a rampage here and escape Zhenbei City.

Both are dead ends.

If Su Daji was indeed the legendary nine-tailed fox spirit, then he must have thoroughly offended her in the past.

Once Su Daji enters Chaoge and takes control of the government, she will definitely make things difficult for him.

His original plan to accumulate power in the Shang Dynasty before the Great Tribulation of the Gods began, so that his traitorous plan to rebel against the Shang Dynasty in the future would be completely thwarted.

As for the option of wreaking havoc here and then escaping, that's simply a pipe dream.

With Grand Tutor Wen Zhong of the Yin Shang Dynasty stationed in the northern part of the town, he probably wouldn't get far before being whipped to death.

As for the black man in his arms, perhaps he can withstand a couple more lashes.

Thinking of this.

He quickly comforted the black man in his arms, signaling him to calm down.

"I have nothing to do with Su Daji. I will go with the young marquis to expose that witch."

Yang Jian's words were forthright and eloquent.

Su Quanxiao extended his hand: "Then please."

The soldiers on the sidelines were watching them intently.

Yang Jian was caught in a dilemma.
