The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 170 Qingdai: The Immortal Sect Can't Stop Miss from Going Out
It was already evening when Jiang Man returned to his residence.

He was also a bit tired from rushing back, so he briefly practiced his cultivation a few dozen times.

He chatted with Lao Huang while cooking.

The first thing he talked about was breaking through the limits of his talent. He mastered the superior technique in just twenty-two days and one hour, which even boosted his physical cultivation.

The old ox grazed on its own, showing no desire to utter a sound.

No matter what Jiang Man said, it pretended not to hear it.

The conversation continued until they mentioned demons, spirit beast eggs, and the stone.

The old ox seemed to come to its senses only after a moment.

It looked at the spirit beast egg and said, "The immortal sect is in great order. Good cultivation methods allow you to progress faster, making you stronger than normal demons."

"But it won't be much better."

"After all, the demon race also has its own advantages."

"Logically speaking, demons should be stronger than ancient cultivators."

"It's not like you guys are above my level."

"So there's something wrong with these demons?" Jiang Man asked, pointing to the spirit beast eggs.

The old ox shook his head: "There's no problem with the spirit beast eggs right now, but it's hard to say whether there will be any problems after they hatch."

"Furthermore, it is understandable that they would be weak if they came out of the seal."

"But the Misty Cloud Sect has no reason not to know that the seal is malfunctioning."

"So the sect specifically waited for someone to discover it and then report it?" Jiang Man asked.

So he was very curious whether he was the first.

Several demons were missing along the way, which means he was definitely not the only one who knew in advance.

Will the other party report it?

Jiang Man was unaware of this, but had not yet received any news of a reward being reported.

"What do you plan to do with these eggs?" the old ox asked.

"It's sold," Jiang Man said truthfully.

"Not raising spirit pets?" the old ox asked curiously.

"Having seen what they'll look like beforehand, I don't want to raise them," Jiang Man said with a look of disgust.

It would be better to sell it and buy spiritual resources.

It became the cornerstone of his spiritual practice.

Finally, Jiang Man asked Shi Tou a question.

"There's the aura of an evil god. Are you going to continue provoking him?" the old ox asked.

Jiang Man shook his head: "No, I'll go see Mr. Yan tomorrow and hand over the stone."

"Even a peerless genius fears an evil god?" the old ox asked.

"Give me a few years, and the offensive and defensive strategies will change," Jiang Man said confidently.

The old ox was silent for a moment, then began to eat grass.

Jiang Man roughly understood the situation based on what he had received.

Then came the cultivation.

If he can achieve a complete fusion of power, he can enter the top three of the outer sect.

After mastering the subsequent secret techniques.

Then we can secure first place.

The number one outside the sect.

His light will illuminate the entire sect at the moment he forms his core.

The rankings won't be released quickly this time; we'll have to wait until the next day.

September 16th.

Before heading to the courtyard, Jiang Man took the opportunity to check the rankings.

at the same time.

Zhuo Bufan and the others also arrived at the ranking announcement area, all wanting to see if Jiang Man could make it into the top fifteen.

Su Qinya and Gao Rong also came.

Gao Rong felt she had never looked forward to rankings so much in her life.

Su Qinya had no intention of winning Jiang Man's heart; she just wanted to see if she could qualify.

Having the qualifications means having a brighter future.

And since no one could complete the task, it meant that she had not failed.

Overall, this was a huge profit.

Soon a lot of people arrived here.

People from the First, Second, and Third Affiliated Hospitals all want to know their ranking.

Zhuo Bufan, Zhao Yaoyao, and the others were squeezed in by the powerful figures and couldn't get in.

However, it's still barely visible.

At this point, many names began to appear on the ranking stone tablet.

Almost all rankings are generated in an instant.

Zhuo Bufan said, "Look at the individual rankings first, don't rush to look at the team rankings."

“I’d say the top ten,” Lin Qingshan said immediately.

“You really have a lot of confidence in Jiang Man,” An Rong said.

"Shut up," Cao Cheng said seriously. "It's all because of you that I've suffered such heavy losses."

“It’s not normal for someone like you who doesn’t appreciate beauty to suffer losses,” An Rong said bluntly.

"Stop arguing, I've finished looking at it." Lin Qingshan looked at the stone tablet and said seriously, "You can look at the top ten, you don't need to look at the others."

Immediately, everyone else looked at the top ten positions.

First place: Shangguan Liuyun from Tianxiang Peak Academy.

Second place: Gu Yuexi, Beipanfeng First Hospital.

Third place: Zhao Tianhe, Yunxia Peak First Affiliated Hospital.

Eighth place, Yunxia Peak Seventh Academy, Jiang Man.

Ninth place, Nanpanfeng Second Hospital, Qiu Li.

"Eighth in the outer sect?" Zhuo Bufan exclaimed in shock. "Isn't that already first in the outer sect?"

Because after this competition, the First Affiliated Hospital was no longer the First Affiliated Hospital.

We're about to compete for the promotion method and enter the inner sect.

Therefore, Jiang Man is actually the number one disciple in the outer sect.

"Only eighth?" Cao Cheng said slowly. "They can't even get into the top five."

Upon hearing this, everyone instinctively looked over.

An Rong nodded in agreement: "I'm already seventh, the gap isn't that big."

Zhuo Bufan and the others remained silent for a moment before turning and leaving.

Meanwhile, Gao Rong was constantly checking the team rankings.

He felt a surge of excitement and anticipation.

But I was also a little nervous.

Finally, he saw his own name.

Thirteenth place: Jiang Man, Su Qinya, Gao Rong.

Upon seeing the ranking, Gao Rong froze on the spot.

I felt an indescribable sense of joy.

He, Gao Rong, never expected such a day.

This means he has a chance to achieve the Golden Elixir.

How lucky he is to have Xiao Gao in his family.

His vision and foresight are unmatched.

the other side.

A man looked at the rankings and remained silent for a moment.

"What are you thinking about, Fellow Daoist Shangguan?" A woman walked up from behind.

“The eighth place is from the Seventh Academy,” Shangguan Liuyun said calmly.

"Oh?" The woman looked at the rankings and smiled. "It really is him. I've heard of him. He's said to be a genius who stays up all night. With his talent, staying up all night doesn't really matter. He's definitely going to reach the top."

"What, Fellow Daoist Shangguan, is it a pity that you didn't get to fight him?"

"According to some people, he does not seem to have completed the fusion of powers."

"By the time he finished merging, we had already left the outer gate."

"There's no chance for us to fight."

Shangguan Liuyun looked at the person beside him and said softly, "Next month is the time to compete for the promotion law. He was able to jump from the Seventh Academy to the First, Second and Third Academies. Do you think he can directly participate in the promotion law competition from the Sixth Academy?"

Shangguan Liuyun turned to leave, adding casually, "Junior Sister Gu is too happy too soon. You'll probably get to see what the other person is like soon enough."

Gu Yuexi shrugged and said, "Do you think I can't beat him? He hasn't had time to complete the fusion of power or cultivate the secret technique in a month."

"No matter how you look at it, I have the advantage."

Shangguan Liuyun turned around and glanced at the other person, saying, "Is this all there is to being good at?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuexi paused for a moment and said, "If we don't compare these, what should we compare?"

Shangguan Liuyun sighed and said, "It doesn't matter anymore. But for me, I might be able to compete with him. That's only because he's young; otherwise, I wouldn't have a chance."

"Meeting him at this time is both my luck and my misfortune."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuexi exclaimed in surprise, "You mean he can compete with you? How is that possible? I know your strength best."

"They are far beyond the reach of those geniuses."

"Jiang Man not only stays up all night, but his progress is also insufficient."

Shangguan Liuyun calmly said, "Tianjiao, you cannot understand, nor do you need to understand. Just accept it."

"Just wait, you'll meet them soon."

"If he is a true prodigy."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Preparing for the advancement dungeon a month from now.

Jiang Man looked at his ranking, but showed no dissatisfaction.

He thought he could only make it into the top fifteen.

I didn't expect it to be eighth.

As for team thirteen.

Not bad either.

He mostly draws, mainly because he's young.

We won too few games fair and square.

However, the number of losses was small, so finishing in the top fifteen is a very good result.

Now he is also qualified to enter the advancement realm.

He was hesitating whether to join this year or next year.

Logically, next year should be the best time for him to be in good condition.

but.
The opportunity is right in front of us. As a peerless genius, can we let it slip away?
Of course not.

What's missing is the fusion of power.

Secret techniques may not be learned, but the fusion of powers must be complete.

Otherwise, the promotion would be meaningless.

Afterwards, Jiang Man found Mr. Yan, and the first thing he did was naturally to hand over the stone.

"Is it related to an evil god?" Yan Yiqiu felt that something was amiss.

Why is it related to evil gods?

She teaches at the outer gate.

How can one be so virtuous?

In the end, she had no choice but to accept it and decided to give it away immediately.

This thing is hot to the touch.

Then Jiang Man talked about the second thing.

That means he's going to participate in the advancement realm.

The method of competing for promotion.

Upon hearing this, Yan Yiqiu was stunned again.

Only then did she realize that the person standing in front of her was the most talented person she had ever seen.

His cultivation journey is a legend to others.

"What's your individual ranking?" Yan Yiqiu asked.

“Not bad, eighth place,” Jiang Man replied.

"Not bad?" Yan Yiqiu was silent for a moment before saying, "I will apply, and I should have an answer in the next few days."

eighth.

This year is probably the most dazzling year of her coaching career.

If Jiang Man successfully enters the advancement secret realm, obtains the third method, and then returns to cultivate it.

Breakthrough before the beginning of the year
I can't even think about it.

Afterwards, Jiang Man returned to the courtyard, feeling that he probably wouldn't have much time to stay there.

Because we need to continue to complete the fusion of forces.

We're in a bit of a rush.

Besides, it's already September 16th, so Song Qing has probably already returned to Luoyun City.

I was unable to pay interest to the other party this time.

"What is the competition like between the First, Second, and Third Academies?" Cao Cheng asked immediately when Jiang Man came over.

"How many people are participating?" An Rong also asked.

Jiang Man pondered for a moment and said, "About a thousand or so? There are eight or nine hundred Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivators."

Upon hearing this, Cao Cheng and An Rong were both stunned.

How many Foundation Establishment stages have been completed?

Eight or nine hundred?
How can we break into the top ten?
Zhuo Bufan hesitated for a moment and then asked his cousin, Zhuo Ling.

Jiang Man remarked with emotion, "He's a good person."

Zhuo Bufan was puzzled.

Why is he considered a good person?

Zhao Yaoyao reminded him, "In the past, people would approach you hoping you would marry into their family, but recently they might be hoping you would take a wife or even a concubine."

How did she know?
Because the clan had given her orders, but she refused.

Although her family was somewhat unhappy with her rejection, they could only accept it.

Because if they didn't do such things, they would be classmates and have a good relationship.

Once this task is completed, the friendship becomes a matter of mutual benefit.

It's already difficult to win people over, and doing this could lead to them being ostracized.

There's no need for that.

You could easily find someone else to do it.

Jiang Man nodded in gratitude.

Of course, no matter who comes, his answer will be the same.

Those people wouldn't be so persistent as to pester you relentlessly.

“Actually, some people will try every means to get close to you in order to increase familiarity and thus take advantage of the situation,” Lin Qingshan said.

He didn't believe those people would give up.

They will definitely use whatever means are available.

Some people might even go to extremes.

Have to guard against it.

"How do the women who are nearby compare to me?" An Rong asked, raising her head.

Cao Cheng glanced at the other person and said, "If all those people send out people like you, then they're doomed."

“I suspect you’re not even a man,” An Rong said dismissively. “Any man would look up to me.”

As she spoke, she looked at Lin Qingshan and the others.

The latter was silent for a moment before taking out his notebook: "An Rong mocked me for being indiscriminate in my choices."

Wei Beichuan wrote: "An Rong said I'm trash."

An Rong: "."

Zhao Yaoyao said, "Let's cut it."

Jiang Man shook his head. These people were wasting his time. He should continue cultivating.

Everyone: "."

Jiang Man stopped cultivating only after Mr. Yan arrived.

The other party brought many things.

There are secret techniques for succeeding in this assessment, rewards for submitting stones, and additional rewards for ranking eighth individually and thirteenth in the team.

Although he wasn't sure what it would be like, Jiang Man felt he was about to become wealthy.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

A rustic courtyard.

Meng Qiewei stood under the tree, slightly raising her head to watch the branches sway.

Qingdai came in from outside and stood beside her young mistress, looking up at the tree as well: "Miss, what are you looking at?"

Meng Qiewei did not make any move, but said, "This tree is sick."

Hearing this, Qingdai was somewhat surprised: "Are you sick?"

Meng Qiewei casually said, "There's an evil god trying to do something. You should inform the immortal sect when you have time. It should be related to the rain earlier."

Qingdai did not hesitate and immediately sent out the message.

Send the elders to spread the word.

If the young lady herself spoke up, then it must be true.

If it is indeed a method that the immortal sects have not been aware of, then it is likely that the immortal sects will have a hard time stopping the young lady from going out this time.

Of course, power cannot be taken out.

Otherwise, there is absolutely no possibility that the immortal sects would agree.

But even without any special powers, those on the list are theoretically not allowed to leave the house.

She then brought up the news: "The new generation of prodigies has sent back news about that prodigy who stays up all night."

"They said the other party participated in the assessment of the First, Second and Third Affiliated Hospitals."

"We got eighth place."

"It looks like we'll have to go to the advancement realm again."

"The new generation of prodigies also said that although the Golden Core stage is a hurdle, if you firmly choose the other party at this time, it will definitely be a timely help. But if you wait until the Golden Core stage is formed, it will be the icing on the cake."

He felt that he should directly arrange a marriage between his direct descendants and him.

"The form it takes is entirely up to us."

As she spoke, Qingdai looked at her mistress and said, "Miss, do you think what the new generation of prodigies said makes sense? This prodigy who stays up all night has indeed made rapid progress, but the elders' opinion that he is fast is also problematic. How far one can go is not directly related to how fast one advances to the Foundation Establishment stage."

"They still want to wait and see."

"Because judging from their previous attitude, they probably don't want to marry into the family."

"Ultimately, the Foundation Establishment stage is too weak; nothing can be seen at all."

"Where do you think their bottom line is?" Meng Qiewei asked.

Qingdai understood her mistress's idea: she wanted to wait for those people to nod in agreement, and then slip away unnoticed.

So the young lady wouldn't refuse the offer, but she also wouldn't bring it up herself.

"We should wait until we reach the Core Formation stage before we can start considering it," Qingdai guessed.

Meng Qiewei withdrew her gaze and looked at Qingdai: "How long do you think it will take him to form his core?"
