Xuanjian: Jade True Sword Immortal, my Dao Wisdom keeps increasing.

Several Foundation Establishment cultivators of Jueyin perished, and a grayish-white, chilling aura rose up.

Suddenly, it started snowing.

Seeing Jueyin Zifu step into the void, Jiang Heqian's tense mind finally relaxed.

With a clear clang, he sheathed his Mingyu sword and floated in mid-air, silently admiring the swirling snow.

At this moment, the middle-aged man with a long face, thick eyebrows, a sharp, golden aura, and dressed in a black Taoist robe looked at Jiang Heqian and said in a low voice:

"Young friend Jiang has done my Jianmen a great favor. I am Cheng Jiuwen of the Jianmen, and I thank you very much."

Jiang Heqian replied respectfully:

"I wouldn't dare. As a junior stationed here on the Great Western Plain, I will certainly do my best."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jiuwen smiled slightly and said:

"This is not a place to linger. Young friend, let's return to Jianmen and discuss this further."

Return to Jianmen? Abandoning the Great Western Plain?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Heqian's expression changed several times, filled with surprise and joy. He asked to confirm:

"Senior, do you mean you're taking me back to Jianmen, so I don't have to stay in this Great Western Plain anymore?"

Cheng Jiuwen nodded slowly, his tone tinged with guilt, and said:

"In the end, it was my Sword Sect that used Young Friend Jiang. Now that we have eliminated several Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators who cultivate Jueyin, the Great Western Plain will be peaceful for a while. As for Zong Chang who cultivates Jueyin, it will take her decades to cultivate a Jueyin Foundation Establishment cultivator. Young Friend Jiang, you naturally don't need to stay here any longer."

Those demonic cultivators who had cultivated the Jueyin [Sanyi Chamber] Immortal Foundation were specially raised by Zong Chang.

No wonder Zong Chang looked at me strangely after I killed that group of demonic cultivators.

It turned out that she had raised them to use as provisions for her spiritual practice.

The Jueyin Dao branch descends to become a hundred evils, prone to disorder and debauchery. Zong Chang uses the nurturing of these demonic cultivators to cultivate her [Sanyi Chamber] supernatural power.

She originally intended to use her superior number of Foundation Establishment cultivators to break through the Jianmen stronghold on the Great Western Plain in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, the Sword Sect saw through their scheme and outmaneuvered them.

After considering it for a moment, Jiang Heqian said respectfully:

"Senior, please allow me to leave a message for the manuscript."

After saying that, he immediately took out paper and pen and began to write. Then he returned to his post, handed the letter to Gu Pang, gave him some instructions, and left with Cheng Jiuwen.

The vast emptiness is boundless and silent.

Cheng Jiuwen used his Gengjin Divine Power to carry Jiang Heqian through the void.

Arriving in the Xuanjian World, this was Jiang Heqian's first time entering the Taixu. Perhaps because his cultivation level was too low, he had no feeling for the Taixu and did not see anything special about it.

When Jiang Heqian scanned the vast void with his divine sense, he only felt a gentle aura.

Everything was pitch black to the naked eye, making it impossible to tell which way was which.

The two walked silently through the void.

In less than half a day, Cheng Jiuwen withdrew his supernatural powers and appeared at the summit of Jianmen Peak with Jiang Heqian.

The sensation of his feet touching the ground startled Jiang Heqian, bringing him back to his senses. He bowed respectfully and said:

"Thank you, Senior Cheng."

Cheng Jiuwen waved his hand and said to Ling Mei, who was sitting to the side:

"Uncle-Master, I have brought Young Friend Jiang back. We will return to Daxiyuan now."

After speaking, he used his supernatural power, and in a flash, he vanished into the void.

They're leaving already?

Jiang Heqian wanted to say a few more words, urging him not to let the draft remain in Daxiyuan.

It seems I'll have to wait until my next meeting with Cheng Gao to tell him in person.

Ling Mei simply nodded, then poured herself a cup of spiritual tea and pointed to the wooden stool opposite her, saying:

"Young friend Jiang, please have a seat. I, Li, will offer you tea instead of wine to express my gratitude."

"The Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator who was lingering in the Sword Sect's territory on the Great Western Plain was eliminated entirely by you, young friend. The Sword Sect owes you a favor. If you ever need anything from the Sword Sect in the future, please just ask, and we will do our best to help."

This time, the Sword Sect was indeed openly plotting against me, sending me to the Great Western Plain, just waiting for those demonic cultivators to come and die.

Jiang Heqian didn't stand on ceremony. He picked up the spirit tea, drank it all in one gulp, and then asked:

"I wonder if it is permissible for me to reforge the Mingyu Sword at this time."

Ling Mei smiled slightly, as if she had already guessed Jiang Heqian's thoughts, and said calmly:

"I have already instructed Cheng Jinzhu to make preparations in advance. Young friend Jiang can go down the mountain to find him. The [Na Yuan Bao Gen] has been prepared for you. We just need you to bring the spirit sword so that it can be reforged."

Even though he had expected it, Jiang Heqian was still very excited and bowed happily, saying:

"Thank you for your kindness, senior. I will now descend the mountain to find Fellow Daoist Cheng. Farewell."

He made a hand seal and couldn't wait to ride the wind down the mountain to find Cheng Jinzhu.

Sword Gate, Weapon Forging Hall.

Jiang Heqian rushed into the main hall and shouted loudly:

"Fellow Daoist Cheng, I, Jiang, have come to have you forge a sword."

Cheng Jinzhu, dressed in a black Taoist robe, stood in front of the fire vein and suddenly beckoned to Jiang Heqian, signaling him to come over.

Upon seeing Cheng Jinzhu preparing by the fire vein, Jiang Heqian grinned and appeared beside him in a few flashes.

Drawing his spirit jade sword from his waist, Jiang Heqian said solemnly:

"Please, Fellow Daoist Cheng, if there's anything you need, just let me know, and I will do my best to cooperate."

Cheng Jinzhu wiped his face, let out a long breath, and said:

"Sword Immortal, you only need to hand over the Bright Jade Sword and the [Supreme Bright Jade] to me, and wait outside for forty-nine days for the Bright Jade Sword to be reforged."

Jiang Heqian said "good" several times, then took out the Jade True Foundation Establishment spiritual item [Shangming Xuanyu] from his storage bag, along with the Mingyu Sword, and handed it to Cheng Jinzhu.

He stared silently at Cheng Jinzhu until Cheng Jinzhu nodded, then turned and left.

......

Mushroom plains.

The area is densely wooded, and beyond this thick forest, a dark, imposing mountain peak comes into view.

This peak is named Tianlei Peak.

Because it is constantly struck by lightning, the purplish-black rocks of Tianlei Peak faintly flash with lightning and occasionally emit a booming sound.

At this moment, several arrays were shining brightly on the summit of Tianlei Peak, and a woman was among them, seemingly using the power of heavenly thunder to break through her limitations.

Li Yuanjiao was hurrying to Tianlei Peak to find the monk Kongheng.

He landed on the wind and heard Li Wushao arguing with Kong Heng.

The snake demon's face was grim, and he said in an unfriendly tone:

"What are you chanting, monk?"

Kong Heng spoke calmly:

"Fellow Daoist Wushao, what I am reciting is the 'Respectful Cultivation and Subduing Words.' The Seven Aspects of the Buddha most like to use this scripture to subdue demons. Fellow Daoist, listen to it more often, it will be of great benefit, so that you will not be at a loss when you encounter the Buddha reciting this scripture in the future."

The shirtless monk in the courtyard had already attained the rank of Dharma Master.

Li Yuanjiao was quite shocked to see this. Three years ago, this monk's cultivation level was only at the Qi Refining stage. The progress of Shi Xiu's cultivation was truly astonishing.

He stood silently outside the courtyard, listening to the demon and the monk chatting idly, before finally stepping into the courtyard.

Li Yuanjiao said calmly to Kong Heng:

"I see that the Master has successfully broken through. Why don't we return to Wangyue Lake together first?"

Kong Heng calmly explained:

"My Liaohe Temple's secret technique can draw upon the Yin Thunder of the Void, and with the help of your noble friend Li Qinghong's immortal foundation [Xuanleibo], you can cultivate. Now that I have become a Dharma Master, I suppose your friend Qinghong will soon have completed his immortal foundation as well."

Li Yuanjiao was overjoyed upon hearing this, and only uttered a single word, "Oh?"

He then forcefully declared, "Master, you should come back to Moon Gazing Lake with me first. Li Wushao can stay here and watch over things."

I will obey your command.

Then the two of them took to the air and rode the wind away.

Eighty years of collecting and reviewing,

A thunderous roar echoed atop Thunder Peak, and Li Qinghong finally cultivated her immortal foundation, the [Mysterious Thunder Pool].
