Immortal Mystery Sequence: I Establish a Divine Duty for Heaven and Earth

Outside the Jiang residence, high in the void.

The clouds and mist rise and fall, concealing the Daoist principles.

Two figures were hidden between heaven and earth, their auras concealed and not revealed.

Uncle Qing sat cross-legged, seemingly one with the surrounding world, unmoved by any external events or objects.

Dong Daozi's expression was indifferent, but his brows were furrowed.

"Junior brother, is it really necessary to do this? Why keep a secret watch? Even if... that young woman has something special about her, she is already over thirty years old. In our Daoist terms, this means her foundation is not yet open, and she has no chance of becoming an immortal in this life! She poses a very limited threat to our sect."

Qing Shuzi smiled faintly: "Brother Dao, I truly hope that the Daoist sect's grand plan for the next hundred years can be realized. Therefore, before it is truly achieved, we cannot allow the agricultural sect to have even the slightest chance or any possibility of surpassing our Daoist sect."

"Junior brother, you are truly overthinking things. There's not a trace of a sustained upward trend in the agricultural path. How long has this minor Three Realms Gate remained unbroken? No one has been able to break through it yet! This young woman's appearance won't change anything!"

"It's not just that young woman." Uncle Qing's gaze was deep, as if he had noticed something. "Jiang Tu's series of reactions just now also made me inexplicably uneasy. I feel like he knows something..."

"Jiang Tu?"

Dong Daozi recalled the farmer's words and actions at the banquet. He was attentive, fearful, and honest. He seemed like just an ordinary farmer. He really didn't believe that a mere farmer could have the ability to deceive the two Daoist masters!

He doesn't even deserve it!

"Junior brother, you're overthinking it. He's perfectly normal; there's nothing unusual about him."

"I also hope that I am overthinking things, but it is precisely because he is too normal that I am uneasy. Just now, all his responses were just right, which dispelled my and my fellow Daoist's suspicions. Such a person is either truly despicable or so clever that it is difficult to see through him..."

"Alright then, I'll trouble you to entrust the task of secretly monitoring the Jiang family to our two undercover agents in Yingfeng City and Dajiang New County, who will take turns carrying it out. Afterwards, please head to the Jiaosha Ancient Forbidden Land first. I'll stay here a few more days to personally confirm that everything is normal for this child before I can feel at ease."

Dongdaozi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and sighed.

He knew that Uncle Qing was cautious by nature, but sometimes his caution was too much and became a burden. However, since the matter had come to this point, he could not persuade him any further. He raised his hand and a dense stream of Daoist true energy shot into the sky, turning into two streams of light that shot in two completely different directions.

Swish! Swish—

It is as dazzling as a rainbow piercing the sun, but invisible to the naked eye.

"I have already sent word to the people in both places, ordering them to keep a close watch on this place. The matter of Jiaosha cannot be delayed any longer, so I will take my leave first. Junior brother, please do as you see fit."

"Take care, fellow Daoist."

Dong Daozi rose into the clouds, flicked his whisk, and disappeared into the vast cloud layer, vanishing into the southeastern horizon in the blink of an eye.

Only Uncle Qing remained in the void.

He closed his eyes again, his Daoist aura completely subsided, leaving no trace, like a suspended, still stone.

Taoist masters often go into seclusion for decades at a time, and they never lack patience. They believe that with their patience, no secret can be kept hidden for long and will eventually come to light.

The next day, at dawn, the first light of day was just beginning to break.

Two figures, one from the south and one from the north, arrived one after the other, a man and a woman, and knelt down in front of Uncle Qing.

"The hidden agents in Yingfeng City have all been deployed to pay their respects to our esteemed teacher."

"Situ Yan, a spy from Dajiang New County, pays respects to her senior master."

Situ Yan is only twenty years old. She has a delicate and beautiful face, a graceful demeanor, and a calm and serene temperament. She is the great-great-granddaughter of Situ Zhang, the second senior brother of the Taoist sect. Although she is young, she has already received the Tao twice.

This has always been the case within the Taoist sect. The lifespan of the eldest disciple and the other disciples may differ by hundreds of years, and there may be too many generations between them, but once they enter the Taoist sect, they are fellow disciples...

Since the start of the Daoist sect's century-long plan, Situ Zhang was transferred to the vicinity of the forbidden area of ​​Jiaosha, and the task of secretly monitoring the new county of Dajiang fell to her.

Uncle Qing raised his hand to support them, and the two of them felt themselves being lifted up by a gentle stream of true energy.

"I suspect there may be secrets hidden in this Jiang residence. You two can freely deploy your spies from both locations to secretly monitor the couple's movements... If there are any unusual occurrences, report them immediately."

"Yes! Your disciple will obey your orders!"

Qi Kaizhen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master, I just used my Insight Technique to investigate. There is a field of high-quality seeds hidden underground in the Jiang family's house, where many precious medicinal herbs are being sown. Each seed of those herbs is worth tens of thousands of coins in the mortal world, which is not something that ordinary merchants can afford... Is this considered unusual?"

Qing Shuzi remained calm, his eyes closed, and said, "That medicinal seed was a gift from me."

Qi Kaizhen: "...Huh?"

Situ Yan: "???"

The two were filled with doubts and felt extremely confused.

So many high-quality seeds are extremely valuable in the mortal world, and they would be considered good resources in the Taoist sect as well, comparable to some very good types of basic natural treasures... and you just gave them away like that?

Master, are you actually doubting this person or secretly cultivating them?

Are you alright?

Or... why don't you also have some doubts about your disciple? Your disciple wants it too!

"If I don't leave him some benefits, how can he completely put his mind at ease? Only when he is certain that I have no suspicion or malice towards him will he expose his secrets when he is careless. As for the medicinal seeds... they are nothing special, no need to worry about them."

The two readily agreed, their hearts filled with even greater awe for his true abilities.

After that, the days went by.

Spring has passed and summer has arrived; several months have flown by in the blink of an eye.

Qing Shuzi secluded himself outside the Jiang residence, practicing meditation every day, ignoring all inquiries and concerns.

Qi Kaizhen and Situ Yan initially took turns keeping watch and doing everything themselves. But as time went on, they gradually discovered that the Jiang couple were not unusual at all. They would go out to plow the fields at dawn and return in the evening, tending to the good seeds at night, and occasionally take a caravan on a long trip to sell some of their homemade anti-aging cosmetics.

The couple is very close, but at this age, their passion has faded, and their lives have become bland and uninteresting.

As a result, the two gradually relaxed their vigilance, each with their own tasks to attend to, and simply switched to the low-level hidden stakes for duty, only coming to check on things personally every ten days or half a month.

It was at the end of the third month after the arrival of the two immortals.

A rainy night.

Swish swish swish—

The world was shrouded in mist, dark and obscuring the stars and moon.

Jiang Tu sat in front of the main hall watching the continuous downpour, splashing tiny droplets of water on the ground... Zhou Ning'e sat to the side mending clothes, while Xue Li and Xiang Gua brewed tea under the eaves, filling the courtyard with a refreshing fragrance, making for a rather leisurely life.

He watched the rain with great interest, then slowly raised his head, his eyes deep and profound. The subtle tremors that had been raging in Jin Ce's mind for months finally stopped at this moment!

A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders; I've finally overcome this hurdle!

Three months!

That powerful Taoist master had been secretly watching him for three whole months without making a sound!

He couldn't even sense the other party's presence. If Jin Ce hadn't reminded him, he would probably have died ten thousand times over. During this time, he was extremely cautious and walked on thin ice, never doing anything out of line. He was just like a farmer in his fifties.

If he had lost his composure even slightly, if Ning'e hadn't been so calm, steady, cautious, and taciturn, and had said something she shouldn't have, the couple wouldn't have survived tonight.

"The old ones are gone, so there's no need to worry about the rest."

He secretly thought.

Those young spies from the Taoist sects are much easier to deal with. Their cultivation is far inferior to his, and he can easily sense their location and any movement of the wind by using the earth. He only needs to pay a little attention to avoid being monitored.

"call--"

He exhaled a long breath, it was time to get down to business... He had been waiting for this day for too long, it had been delayed for several months!

That night, all was quiet.

Jiang Tu sat alone in the quiet room, the sequence panel slowly unfolding before him—

"Agricultural Road Sequence"

Serial Number: 01

Current evolutionary progress: Rank 7 - "Herbal Compendium Attendant"

Total number of cultivators in this sequence: 6422

"Influence Level of this Sequence: lv2.5 (Qin Qianren Chengcheng of Qingshan Lake, Tian Jun Jiao Hua Jiangzhou Sifang)"

"Harvested Causal Value: 12888"

"Event triggered"

"(New) Tianwu City's Tianjun Chen Shidao is in seclusion attempting to break through to the third realm, suffering repeated defeats but failing (Causality Value +30)"

"(New) Agricultural schools in 25 cities including Tianwu Yuanjiang Yingfeng have been opened, and thousands of new farmers have been added each year (Cause and Effect Value +450)"

"(New) Farmer supply transport is disrupted, Qingshan Lake is isolated from the outside world, and the Qin family is isolated (Causality value +150)"

"(new)……"

"..."

Rows and columns, densely packed.

6422 Sequence Monks!

The agricultural route has gone through 31 years of trials and tribulations. From the initial 109 people who were reduced to one overnight, it has now grown to more than 6,000 people spread throughout Jiangzhou. The 1,000 people in Qingshan Lake have formed their own group, and the farmers in Sifang have opened up schools. The fire of agricultural route has spread to most of Jiangzhou!

As Jiang Tu watched, a thousand thoughts raced through his mind.

While the strategy of differentiating Daoist sects greatly slowed down the development of agricultural Daoism, making it difficult for various regions to produce herbalists and more farmers in the short term, it also facilitated the spread of agricultural Daoism from the small county of Jiangxin to the surrounding areas.

What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise.

"A great harvest!"

Swish!

Causality value: 13247

Ha! Since he transmigrated, he has never fought such a rich battle!

Cool!!

"Add more points! Add a lot more!!"

"Consumes 10000 Causality Points, job level increased, job sequence evolution efficiency moderately increased."

「职业等级：lv3（10000/10000）→lv4（0/50000）」

"Special Feature: (New) Incense and Sacred Way"

"Incense and Divine Path: The core characteristic of the Incense and Divine Path sequence is that in any gathering place of more than a thousand sequence cultivators, there is an extremely low probability that an Incense and Divine Path will be born due to a special opportunity. It gathers the hearts and minds of the people in one place to worship incense and circumstance, combines the power of the four directions of agriculture, spreads knowledge, teaches skills, resolves doubts, and pacifies all living beings and people."

Jiang Tu: "!!!"

His pupils suddenly contracted!

—The Way of Incense and Sacred Religion!

The unique attributes gained by each class level up through the Sequence Gold Strategy are indeed powerful and are never isolated!

Good products lead to good seeds, which form the cornerstone of stable farming and have a far-reaching impact.

Blessing a region gives birth to all kinds of spiritual energy, and protecting a region's mountains and rivers contains a myriad of wonders.

Each characteristic triggers a series of chain reactions during evolution, which are then loaded into reality, completely changing the course of the entire sequence and bringing significant progress and a huge acceleration to the development of the sequence!

The characteristic of incense and deity worship undoubtedly represents that the agricultural path sequence is touching a new dimension!

Incense offerings, faith, deities.

This is definitely the superior ruler of the land spirit, capable of bringing about far too many changes to the foundation of agriculture!

This is so exciting!!
