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

Qingchi Sect.

The main peak, Qingchi Peak, was shrouded in clouds and mist, with an incredibly rich spiritual energy. The [Tianyuan Daoyi Spiritual Array] shimmered with azure spiritual light.

At this moment, in the main hall at the summit, Jiang Heqian had just resolutely rejected Yuan Xiuzhen's proposal.

This old master actually tried to lure him into joining the Qingchi Sect.

Lord Du, the True Lord of Lushui, is ruthless. His entry into the Qingchi Sect means that he will have to go to Luyu Heaven.

Inevitably, once the Lutai Awakening Sword shines upon him, Zi Fu's life and fortune will be like cattle and sheep in shackles, completely at Du Qing's mercy.

Only a fool would join the Qingchi Sect; Jiang Heqian would never seek his own death.

Master Yuan Xiu put down his teacup and asked in a calm tone:

"Master Yu Yan, you were fortunate enough to attend the Daoist teachings at Xuanzhen Mountain of the Xiuyue Sect in the past. It seems that the Supreme True Lord had the intention of cultivating you, Master Yu Yan?"

Now that the True Lords of the Sun Dao lineage are all fighting in the heavens, Yuan Xiu couldn't help but ask a question.

In the past, he wouldn't have dared to even think about matters involving the True Lord, let alone mention them.

Jiang Heqian was completely taken aback by such a direct question, and replied with a solemn expression:

"Great virtue of the Supreme Lord Shangyuan, Yu Yan was just lucky to have a bit of an opportunity; it is by no means a matter of being cultivated by the Supreme Lord."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Xiu merely smiled and nodded, not believing him, thinking to himself:

"Before attaining enlightenment, the Supreme True Lord of the Primordial Realm specially summoned this descendant of the Jiang family in front of the entire world. Who would believe there was no reason? Could it really be because this descendant of the Jiang family is related to the Yuan Dynasty?"

His expression remained unchanged as he lightly tapped the armrest of the jade chair with his fingers.

For a moment, the main hall at the summit fell silent.

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Jiang Heqian quickly spoke up to change the subject, saying:

"Senior, I have come to Qingchi to ask you a private matter. There is a junior from the Li family of Wangyue Lake who is cultivating in Qingchi. Please allow me to meet him."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Xiu turned to look at him and said calmly:

"It's nothing, Master Yuyan, please make yourself at home."

Jiang Heqian stood up, clasped his hands in a salute, and with a flash of magical light, disappeared from the main hall at the summit in the blink of an eye.

Yuan Xiu, dressed in a blue robe, narrowed his eyes and stared at the jade chair where Jiang Heqian had sat, seemingly lost in thought.

Changtian Peak.

This mountain is not high, but its terrain is rugged and difficult to traverse, and it is covered with lush vegetation.

Many years have passed since Li Xizhi opened his meditation cave on this peak.

There are very few cultivators on Changtian Peak. Apart from the demonic snake Li Wushao, only Li Xizhi's two disciples live on Changtian Peak.

One of them, surnamed Zhao, was from a poor farming family; the other, surnamed Quan, was a descendant of the Quan family.

At this moment, Li Xizhi was in the pavilion of Changtian Peak, writing a letter to the Wangyue Li family at his desk.

Jiang Heqian, riding on the Jade True Divine Power, silently appeared at the summit and transmitted his voice through the power:

"Xi Zhi, come out and see me."

Li Xizhi, who was concentrating on writing, was startled by what he heard and unconsciously destroyed the letter on the table.

His expression shifted several times, and he thought to himself:

"It was the Purple Mansion Divine Power that summoned me. Where would a strange Purple Mansion True Person come from in the Azure Pool Sect? Since you were able to pass through the Purple Mansion Grand Array within the sect safely, True Person Yuan Xiu must know about it. Just obey."

Li Xizhi took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and with a few flashes, activated the formation and appeared outside the pavilion.

Wearing a jade crown, dressed in white, and with a bright jade sword at his waist, Jiang Heqian sized up Li Xizhi upon seeing him appear, thinking to himself:

"The swordsman from the Li family really has a different temperament from his brothers."

Dressed in a feathered robe and with a magic sword at his waist, Li Xizhi bowed his head respectfully and said:

"Li Xizhi, the peak master of Qingchi Changtian Peak, pays his respects to Senior and requests your instructions."

Jiang Heqian turned around and said in a gentle tone:

"Rise, no need for formalities. You are the son of an old friend, so you must have heard of my name. My name is Jiang Heqian, and my Taoist name is Yuyan. I am currently cultivating in Milin County."

Upon hearing this, Li Xizhi, dressed in a feathered robe, stood up and stood to the side, saying excitedly:

"Li Xizhi of the Wangyue Li family has met the Jade Immortal. When I was young, I heard about your deeds from my father. Now that I have seen the Sword Immortal in person, I am extremely happy."

Since his soul transmigrated, Jiang Heqian has always been kind to the Wangyue Li family, from getting to know Li Tongya to assisting Li Yuanjiao and then having a brief encounter with Li Ximing.

Any cultivator from the Li family who had obtained a talisman seed knew that there was a sword immortal in Milin County who got along extremely well with their family.

Jiang Heqian nodded with a smile, but before he could speak, Li Xizhi invited him:

"This place is simple and humble. Please, Senior Yu Yan, come to Changtian Peak to talk, so that I may entertain you properly."

He waved his hand and cast a spell, and the array on the mountaintop flashed with spiritual light, instantly opening the array.

The two flew into the pavilion on the summit one after the other, and Jiang Heqian sat in the main seat to wait.

A moment later, a man dressed in green with a gloomy expression, holding a pot of spiritual tea, poured tea for Jiang Heqian with trembling hands.

He was clearly terrified.

Li Wushao! This Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent.

Back in Xianhu, Jiang Heqian, at Kong Tingyun's invitation, almost killed this hooked snake. In the end, Li Yuanjiao, who was traveling with him, brought it back to Wangyue Lake and subdued it, making it the spirit beast of the Li family.

Jiang Heqian stared at Li Wushao with great interest, which terrified the snake demon, who broke out in a cold sweat. He stammered, "..."

"Please, sir, have some tea."

Jiang Heqian waved for him to leave, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and got straight to the point:

"I've broken through to the Purple Mansion realm and come to Qingchi for a visit. I'll also take this opportunity to see the son of an old friend. Xizhi, there's no need to be nervous."

"I see you also practice the sword path; have you yet cultivated the sword essence?"

Li Xizhi quickly stood up, bowed, and replied:

"Xi Zhi thanks Senior Yu Yan for his concern. This junior is dull and has not yet mastered the sword essence."

Swordsmanship training depends entirely on individual comprehension; the swordsmanship experience of others can only be used as a reference.

Jiang Heqian waved his hand, gesturing for him to sit down, and then continued:

"Although I already possess sword intent, the swords cultivated by sword cultivators are all different. I can only share my insights from when I cultivated sword essence, hoping it will be of some help to you."

"Sword essence is the manifestation of a sword cultivator unleashing sword energy that leaves the body to kill enemies. My understanding of sword essence back then was..."

Sitting at the lower end of the table, Li Xizhi listened intently as Jiang Heqian recounted the story of Jian Yuan.

He didn't know how much time had passed before he came to his senses. Seeing Jiang Heqian leisurely sipping his spiritual tea, he quickly stood up, bowed, and thanked him.

"I am deeply grateful for Senior Yu Yan's teachings."

Jiang Heqian downed the spiritual tea in his cup in one gulp, stood up, and said calmly:

"It's nothing. I hope you will cultivate diligently and master the Sword Essence as soon as possible. That would be the greatest gratitude you can give me."

With that, he used his supernatural powers and vanished from the spot in the blink of an eye.

Li Xizhi was thrilled. He bowed again and replied, "This junior will do his utmost to cultivate the sword essence as soon as possible, so as not to fail the trust placed in me by my senior."

The benefits that a Purple Mansion cultivator brought to Li Xizhi were immense.

At least for now, no force dares to harm him easily.

As Jiang Heqian stepped into the Void Realm, he pondered for a moment and thought to himself:

"I need to invest in the Li family, and then find a suitable opportunity to go to Wangyue Lake and try to contact Lu Jiangxian to get reimbursed for the Taiyin Yuehua (a type of medicinal substance)."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grin.
