Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

A Nascent Soul cultivator is someone I can only look up to.

As for those cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or above, I'm afraid I don't even have the right to give them a second glance.

"Heh, how ironic!"

Wang Mang gave a bitter smile.

Then he turned around and sat cross-legged on the bed.

Early the next morning...

Wang Mang then prepared to sell some cultivation resources.

Speaking of which, the cultivation resources here are sold for several times more than in Qingzhou.

That's considered making a small profit.

The market in Tian Shu Star City is bustling with people.

Various independent cultivators have settled here to do business.

Most of these cultivators were at the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage.

Most of them felt that they were destined to never achieve the Great Dao in this lifetime, as their comprehension and aptitude were insufficient to break through.

He made a living from this for the remaining hundreds of years of his lifespan.

I might as well spend the rest of my life here.

Of course, this does not include the cultivators of the Star Luo Merchant Guild.

"Your Star Luo Merchant Guild is being a bit dishonest in doing this."

"Everyone sells this pill for five hundred spirit stones."

"Only your Star Luo Merchant Guild would offer three hundred spirit stones."

"How are we supposed to do business?"

At that moment, one cultivator shouted something at another.

It immediately attracted a group of cultivators to watch.

"Hehe, my Star Luo Merchant Guild has plenty of these kinds of pills."

"Even if we sell at a loss, we're happy to do it."

"Why are you meddling in my business?"

The cultivators from the Star Luo Merchant Guild were naturally not at a disadvantage either.

Wang Mang could roughly guess that the Star Luo Merchant Guild used such methods.

In this way, they could control most of the resources and businesses in the market.

Although it's somewhat disgraceful, this kind of thing happens everywhere in the cultivation world.

Even in Qingzhou's black market, it often appears.

So it's not surprising anymore.

"Alright, alright!"

Why waste time talking to these people?

"Our Xingluo Chamber of Commerce has something important to attend to recently."

"Let's stop all business in this market."

The one who spoke was a graceful female cultivator.

Judging from her attire, the female cultivator was wearing a red, form-fitting gauze dress.

She has a great figure and stunning looks.

It's probably at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

His swaying and staggering walk through the crowd was particularly eye-catching.

"Ancestor Li Ziran of Luoyan City is going to hold a dual cultivation ceremony for her granddaughter soon."

"Our chamber of commerce should naturally go too."

"So there's no need to argue with these people."

"Our Xingluo Merchant Guild is temporarily closed. Please find somewhere else to shop!"

The female cultivator said it calmly.

The group of onlookers dispersed, looking disappointed.

Right now...

Have you heard?

"This grandson-in-law of the ancestor Li Ziran is said to be named Su Chen."

"He's a Nascent Soul cultivator from out of town."

"Tsk tsk tsk, to be valued by a Void Refinement stage ancestor and chosen as his grandson-in-law."

"What an incredible stroke of luck!"

"This person is definitely not an ordinary person."

"that is!"

"Moreover, it is said that the geniuses of the major sects, and even the descendants of those old monsters, are among them."

Everyone is eager to get to know this Su Chen.

"If only I could get to know this cultivator named Su Chen."

"That would be an immense opportunity for us cultivators!"

At that moment, two or three rogue cultivators were discussing something behind Wang Mang.

What!

Wang Mang was completely bewildered.

Su Chen?

I didn't hear wrong, did I?

Given the vastness of the Xuanhuang Continent, it wouldn't be surprising if there were a few people with the same name.

After all, Su Chen had only been away from Qingzhou for a short time.

Where can one directly climb to the level of a Grand Cultivator in the Void Refinement stage?

but...

The person just now clearly stated that he was an outsider cultivator, and he was also at the Nascent Soul stage.

Some of them inexplicably match Su Chen's description.

Is it true?

Wang Mang frowned.

"Fellow Daoist, the Su Chen you just mentioned."

"Do you know anything else?"

Wang Mang then asked the group of rogue cultivators a question.

"Where did it come from?"

"Why are you asking about this?"

"Go! Go! Go!"

These rogue cultivators showed absolutely no respect for Wang Mang at this moment.

If this had happened in Qingzhou, Wang Mang might have snapped this guy's neck.

However, I had to hold back here.

"I would be grateful if you could explain it to me, fellow Daoist."

"I was just curious..."

Wang Mang then took out a few spirit stones and stuffed them into his hand.

"Ugh!"

"You should have said so earlier, since you were curious, brother."

"Then you've come to the right person."

"After all, I just came back from Luoyan City."

"Speaking of Su Chen, he does indeed have the qualities that made that Ancestor Li Ziran value him."

"At such a young age, not even two hundred years old, he has already formed a Nascent Soul."

"It is said that he is a cultivator from Qingzhou."

"Now we've climbed up to Li Ziran, this great Buddha."

"I'm afraid there are very few people in the entire Xuanhuang Continent who would dare to disrespect him."

"Overnight, the descendants of those old guys from the major sects, those spoiled young cultivators..."

"But they're all preparing lavish gifts, getting ready to pay them a visit!"

"We cultivators without any background can just listen and then ignore it."

The monk muttered to himself with a smile.

Only then did Wang Mang realize that it really was Su Chen.

Regardless of what happened in between.

I have no choice but to go to Luoyan City, thousands of miles away, to confirm it myself.

...

Luoyan City is bustling with activity right now.

The dual cultivation ceremony is still three days away.

However, many people from various sects had already come to pay their respects well in advance.

After all, on the day of the grand ceremony, they wanted to curry favor with the emperor.

I'm afraid we won't even get a chance to say a word.

If you visit in advance, at least you can leave an impression.

Perhaps many sects and cultivators think this way.

At this moment, the giant stele temple looked just like it did on the day of the grand ceremony.

Su Chen looked at the swarming crowd of cultivators.

For a moment, I was indeed a little dazed.

"Young Master Su!"

"I've heard so much about you!"

"Young Master Su has already reached the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age."

"I truly admire you."

Upon meeting him, he was greeted with a barrage of flattery from a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.

Su Chen hadn't had a chance to reply yet.

Several more cultivators then squeezed in.

"I am an elder of the Crimson Peak Sword Pavilion."

"If Young Master Su ever needs anything from our sect in the future..."

"Go ahead and speak."

"To be honest, my sect is not a major sect."

"But at least our sect is skilled in sword forging."

"On this occasion, I have prepared a fine spirit sword for Young Master Su."

A bloated cultivator bowed to Su Chen.

Then he waved to the person behind him.

The two disciples who brought the sword quickly carried a sword box and placed it directly in front of the cultivator in charge of registering the gifts.

Then he quickly signed his sect's name.

Su Chen's lips twitched at that moment.

Those people were all cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage.

His cultivation level was even higher than mine.

They were so polite to me, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.

It's busy.

Suddenly, a thundercloud surged in the sky outside the palace.

In a short while, the thundercloud was split in two by a beam of spiritual light.

This caused countless cultivators to look up.

A cultivator was seen walking through the air.

...
