The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 151 Why isn't he sleeping?

On the sea, the ship kept moving forward, but as it passed through the sea fog, a dark shadow silently fell into the water and disappeared.

At this moment, the tall man came up to the deck and looked around at everything.

Only after confirming that there was nothing amiss did he remove the black robe.

He was a robust middle-aged man.

It has many runes on its body.

The Qi and blood resonate with the runes, shining brightly.

His gaze was as intense as that of a seasoned general.

A powerful aura began to spread, causing the weaker demonic beasts around to flee in panic.

He channeled his spiritual energy to make the ship move quickly.

After circling the island once, the ship returned to the central island.

Upon entering the port, someone came to greet us.

"Manager Chen, is there anything unusual?" a man in his early thirties asked respectfully.

As the ship docked, Manager Chen's feet landed on the pier. He shook his head slightly and said, "There are no problems for now. The sea monsters haven't made any moves. However, fog has started to rise in Area One. Please be careful when you are exploring."

“The monsters over there could take advantage of the fog at any time to make their move.”

“Those evil spirits and heretics may also use the fog to approach the island.”

"But the most dangerous place is not here."

"The Dabi area is the easiest place to take advantage of the chaos, so we need to remind them to be vigilant. At the same time, we can't let our guard down here either."

The man immediately wrote it down.

After giving many more instructions, Steward Chen headed towards the central market.

Chen Yu was one of the three stewards of the Lonely Smoke Islands.

He was born into poverty, but his exceptional talent was evident from the time he entered the Cloud Frontier Division.

He was quickly valued by the local family.

In the end, he married into their family and became one of them.

At first, he treated them as family and worked hard to cultivate, even staying up all night to cultivate.

After achieving the Foundation Establishment stage, he dared not slack off in the slightest.

His cultivation speed has always far surpassed that of others.

Whenever someone catches up, he stays up all night practicing to create distance.

Everyone says that staying up late is bad for your mental health, but he never believed it.

He felt that his hard work and effort would not let him down.

Although it was indeed difficult to bear at first, once you overcome it, there won't be any major problems. Without a doubt, he overcame it and made great strides forward.

Those were the years when he received the most applause.

Until he reached the Golden Core stage, a fog appeared in his mind, blocking his path forward.

He didn't believe he would be blocked, but as he moved forward, he saw endless darkness, a sun that would never rise, a dead end, his own weakness, and the despair of an abyss.

Core formation failed!
At that moment, he felt that something was wrong.

I'd like to try again; maybe I'll succeed this time.

It just requires some resources.

However.
His family ridiculed him, and his wife felt he was wasting resources.

My father-in-law said it was another failed investment.

No one will give him a second chance.

He suddenly realized that these people had never cared about him; what they cared about was the brilliance he possessed.

His glory is gone; he can discard it at any time.

Family affection?

love?

Friendship?

They are all merely byproducts of brilliance.

But he was unwilling to give up, so he inquired with the sect.

The sect told him that it was the effect of staying up late, and that if he wanted it to subside, he needed to practice the Sleeping Dream Technique and fall into a deep sleep in order to smooth out the effects.

But the Dream Magic requires a spiritual source, which he no longer possesses.

He wanted to get a good night's sleep and then cultivate, so that he could break through to the next level.

However, that wouldn't work, because due to the contract, he needed to compensate his family with a sum of spiritual energy.

Finally, he chose to enter the sixth secret realm of the ancient well. As long as he came out quickly enough, he wouldn't be greatly affected.

still have a chance.

He stayed inside for three months, accumulating enough spiritual energy.

I want to rest and recuperate before getting promoted.

Unfortunately, a year of recuperation did not allow him to fully recover.

Until that night, in his despair, he had a dream.

I dreamt of someone who claimed to be a fairy.

Fate changed from that moment on.

.

At this moment, Chen Yu walked in little by little, and the people around him bowed their heads respectfully as they greeted him.

Looking back, Chen Yu felt that he was standing on the edge of despair and felt powerless in the face of reality until the fairy said that she could remove all obstacles for him.

At that moment, the other person became the light in his heart.

He broke through.

Achieve the Golden Elixir.

His family came looking for him again, but he refused them.

resentment?

No, it's that I've seen through it all; they're not from the same world at all.

After years of cultivation, his progress was not bad. He suppressed his family members several times, thus hindering the rise of their new generation and completely cutting off their future path.

He simply did something he wanted to do and that made him happy, nothing more.

After doing all that, he volunteered to come here.

Planning for the future.

Now, his task has come.

First, they tried to win over people from the Seventh Hospital; second, they contacted Jiang Man.

He wasn't sure where Jiang Man's communication with Xianling had gone.

We can only try it out first.

Tonight, let the outsiders approach their residence.

Then try to take a few with you.

Most of the instructors at the Foundation Establishment stage are ordinary Golden Core cultivators, so there's no need to worry too much about them.

Simply use magic items to trap one or two.

Especially when it's dark and windy, and everyone is resting, that's the best time to make a move.

Back then, he thought he was being clever and stayed up all night practicing, but in the end, he suffered terribly.

Nowadays, very few people stay up late, but this is also their opportunity.

Back at his lodgings, he waited quietly for a call for help from the Seventh Hospital.

However, he did not hear any shouts until midnight, and from midnight until dawn.

"Did they fail? Or is the coach afraid to make it public?" Chen Yu wondered.

He soon received a secret message instructing him to go and check it out that evening.

The next night.

He used the pretext of inspection to walk towards the rest area of ​​the Seventh Hospital.

The hour of Zi (11 PM - 1 AM) is a time for everyone to rest.

However, when he went over, his face turned black.

The area where these people were located was brightly lit, and they were all cultivating in the courtyard.

Seeing this, Chen Yu was stunned and became anxious.

What are these people doing?

When did staying up all night to study become so blatant and aboveboard?

They don't know that staying up late to practice can damage one's mental and physical health, so how could a coach not know?
If a coach misbehaves, won't others report it?

Why would these people stay up all night if they hadn't tasted the benefits? Once they tasted the benefits, the rankings of other peaks would inevitably drop.

If no one reports this, why are all those people so good-natured?
He felt somewhat helpless for a moment.

No wonder the people who tried to launch a sneak attack yesterday failed; they simply didn't have the chance.

How can these people launch a sneak attack if they don't sleep at all?
He never dreamed that he would encounter an entire courtyard of people staying up all night to cultivate.

Chen Yu steadied himself and walked over.

As soon as she arrived, Yan Yiqiu spotted him.

"My name is Chen Yu, the manager of the first area," Chen Yu introduced himself.

Yan Yiqiu then lowered her guard: "Yan Yiqiu is the instructor of the Seventh Academy of Yunxia Peak."

"Mr. Yan." Chen Yu nodded politely, then looked at the people in the courtyard, "What are they doing here?"

He was somewhat reluctant to say it outright.

Staying up all night to study is hardly something to be proud of.

"We're staying up all night to cultivate," Yan Yiqiu said.

Chen was surprised, but still curious: "Don't they know that staying up all night to cultivate damages one's mental and physical health?"

Yan Yiqiu said with a hint of helplessness, "I know."

"Then why are they doing this?" Chen Yu was even more confused.

Yan Yiqiu shook her head: "Perhaps they feel it won't harm their mental state."

After learning more about it, Chen Yu finally decided that these people were beyond saving.

But it doesn't matter, we'll all end up joining them anyway.

It can be said that someone gave them a chance.

It was their good fortune.

After that, Chen Yu left. He didn't ask any further questions, only offered a kind reminder, and didn't pay any attention to who Jiang Man was.

Such matters become highly suspicious once questioned.

There was still plenty of time, so he wasn't in a hurry.

Jiang Man didn't care whether anyone came or not, as long as it didn't affect his cultivation.

Now they need to get used to being here for three days before going out for real combat.

The most important thing is practical combat skills; otherwise, you can obtain a spirit sword.

Jiang Man frowned, because the competition was about practical combat skills.

He only uses his ultimate move.

It's a big loss.

Ji Hao sat on the rooftop, looking down at everyone below. These people were truly cultivating without sleep or rest.

He felt embarrassed to take a break.

For three days, none of the people in the Seventh Academy took a break.

In the past few days, they have finally gotten used to the spiritual energy.

"Let's go, it's time to set off. This trip will last seven days, followed by three days of rest upon our return. We'll repeat this nine times, and then it'll be over." Ji Hao said to everyone, "Remember to prepare everything you need, so we don't end up lacking supplies and making no progress."

Jiang Man has been trying to boost his spirits these past few days.

While honing my skills, I also want to get promoted again.

Soon, I will be able to advance to the seventh level of the Spirit Realm.

His physical body is also close to reaching the sixth level.

In addition, he would study the Purple Cloud Divine Light during mealtimes.

In a few more days, I will be able to begin my cultivation.

That's why he felt it was difficult to improve his combat skills, since he spent all his time improving his cultivation and spells.

The time required to hone skills is no less than that required to improve techniques.

It would be better to improve one's spells and cultivation level, which would allow one to unleash more power.

Ultimately, it all comes down to different approaches.

There's too much room for improvement, and no time to work on practical skills.

The path to becoming an unparalleled genius is too wide.

The group then went to the beach.

"Where's the boat?" Yan Yiqiu asked.

The others were also puzzled, as many of them did not know how to fly on a sword, and even those who did did not possess a spirit sword.

Even if there were a spirit sword, it would still need sufficient spiritual energy.

The consumption is too great.

"The first practical lesson is about using the Swimming Dragon. Learn to rationally control and manipulate spiritual energy to operate the Swimming Dragon." Ji Hao looked at the small island in front of him and said, "What you need to do is use the Swimming Dragon to reach that island."

"Also, I advise you to keep your pills and talismans safe, or give them to Mr. Yan."

"Otherwise, if they fall into the water, there could be problems."

The group glanced at the island in the distance and felt it wasn't too far.

The dragon can reach that point.

The problem was operating the dragon on water, something they had never tried before.

There's no sea area this large near the sect.

"I'll go first," a man said as he stepped forward from behind.

He didn't presume to do so, but instead gave the item to Mr. Yan.

So he activated the dragon and headed towards the island.

The moment he stepped onto the water, it burst open, and he almost fell in, unable to find any footing.

But it quickly unleashed a powerful force and flew out successfully.

Then bang! bang!

The other person stepped on the water a few times and then fell in.

"You failed," Ji Hao said with a smile. "Are you going to swim across or come back and start over?"

The other party chose the latter.

Then Ji Hao dragged him back.

"Water is clearly different from land," he kindly pointed out.

“Yes, water and land are different, and any spell will have different effects in different environments.” Ji Hao said slowly. “You will learn many spells along the way. Most of these spells are useless, but what you need to do is understand the environment and then use the spells.”

"Minor spells can also play an extraordinary role at crucial moments."

"Also, you need to hurry. If you don't cross the sea within an hour, I will make you carry heavy loads for the next six days."

With that, he mounted his sword and flew off to wait on the other side.

Mr. Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He was terrified, thinking that she would also be put to a test.

Fortunately, it was only there to guard the items.

"Are you sure you can do it?" An Rong asked Cao Cheng.

"You should worry about yourself. If you fall into the water, your precious piece of meat will be looked down upon," Cao Cheng said disdainfully.

"Useless meat? You'll never get to eat anything good in your life," An Rong said disdainfully.

Then she looked at Zhao Yaoyao: "Yaoyao doesn't even have what she wants."

While researching how to cross the sea, Zhao Yaoyao took out her notebook: "An Rong mocked me for not being feminine."

She actually has this too, it's just that it's a bit restrictive, making it easier to cast spells.

Like An Rong, it purely affects cultivation and combat.

Cao Cheng is right; it should have been cut long ago.

An Rong: "."

Jiang Man gently patted the surface of the water, then felt the surface tension of the water.

Then I did a simple calculation of the power resonance.

In this way, the dragon moved as if walking on flat ground and crossed the sea.

Others admired him.

But at least tell me how you got there.

When Jiang Man reached the other side, his brows furrowed slightly.

My trouser legs were a little wet.

It's because of the waves.

So the details were overlooked.

Still have to practice.

Ji Hao was stunned when he saw Jiang Man coming over.

He had expected Jiang Man to arrive soon, but not this soon.

He thought about it and decided that he should still bring the people into the clan.

If I can successfully form my core in seven years, then I should consider having a direct descendant.

The correct answer should be found in seven years.

the other side.

Chen Yu watched as Jiang Man and the others attempted to cross the sea, but made no move.

There was no rush to do anything.

Ever since he learned that they were staying up all night, he couldn't bring himself to do anything rash.

But it's already being set up.

Everything can be set up in two months at most.

That will completely disrupt these people.

另外
He took out a bead, which was the extracted illusion.

It allows everyone who enters to experience the despair he felt after working all night to get promoted.

This will make them understand what they will ultimately have to face.

Only that celestial being can bring hope to people.

The rest is about influencing people outside the archipelago.

With such a lively scene here, they've been itching to get out and about.

All of these can be utilized.

In addition, the arrival of two instructors from the Seventh Academy this time was somewhat unexpected, but it's not a big problem.

They can hold them off.

-

Mist Cloud Sect.

Huo Bingzhi, who had been imprisoned, kept waiting, but the days passed by one by one.

She received no response whatsoever.

Because Jiang Man had never slept.

She felt that no matter how late the other person stayed up, they should still go to sleep.

Three days passed, and she went to sleep without receiving a response.

You can wait.

Ten days.

We can wait.

Twenty days.

Keep waiting.

One month.

two months.

From September 15th to now, November 15th.

She discovered that Jiang Man hadn't slept at all.

Some people can't take it anymore.

Angry eyes widened.

Why isn't he sleeping?
