The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 173 The Master Asked Me to Be the Sect Leader
The round-faced man looked at the person in front of him and said, "Then you have to make sure he can form a core. Now that the immortal spirit is asleep, it will be difficult for the envoy to enter the dream after he was captured."

"Jiang Man voluntarily left his name and was even willing to give up everything to save people."

He already had supporters.

"If you fail to subdue him, it will cause him to fail to form his core."

"Then your status will also be affected."

"You don't have much immortal power left."

Faced with the well-meaning reminder from the round-faced man, Chen Yu nodded slightly: "I understand, but Jiang Man is definitely not what he appears to be."

"Such blatant blatant actions clearly indicate that they are from the Enforcement Hall."

“But you have no evidence, and the fact that he dared to reveal his name shows he’s not afraid of retaliation. How can someone so upright be a member of the Enforcement Hall?” The round-faced man looked at Chen Yu and said, “If I asked you to reveal your name, would you dare?”

Chen remained silent.

This is true.

But Jiang Man dared to do it.

He couldn't understand it either, since the other party was most likely from the Enforcement Hall.

But they dare to publicly reveal their names.

They even dared to say that they would do everything in their power to rescue the celestial messenger.

You can't say that someone like that has a problem no matter how you look at it.

Such an honest person naturally gains the approval of others.

Therefore, this time, everyone's cooperation will definitely be accepted.

However, if the Core Formation fails...

Things are getting complicated.

Chen Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.

"I should also remind you that the flames of the immortal spirits in your dreams have been growing brighter lately. They suspect it's related to Jiang Man, so they're paying more attention to it," the round-faced man reminded him again.

The candlelight was so bright, it was truly astonishing.

This has never happened before.

But it was indeed after Jiang Man entered the dream.

The specifics are unknown.

Then their people began preparations.

Chen Yu then returned to the archipelago.

They set out to connect with Jiang Man's dream.

As long as Jiang Man begins to compete for the advancement method, he will be pulled into a special dream, and he will be able to find the other party by means of the resonance between the other party and the immortal spirit.

This can influence the other party.

Actually, what truly prevented Jiang Man from obtaining the promotion method this time was not staying up all night.

Rather, it was because he absorbed the power of the immortals.

He already knew that staying up all night couldn't stop the other person.

However, the other party was overconfident, accepting all immortal spiritual power without question.

That is a celestial spirit, no ordinary power; those who absorb it will experience abnormalities in their bodies.

It will definitely have some impact, but he does have a way to get him out of it.

Furthermore, once a fairy decides to submit, she will place a lock on it.

Jiang Man also has it.

If the fairy spirit had not been asleep, the lock might have been unlocked, but now it has become his weapon.

With locks, it is difficult to evolve promotion methods.

Faced with the temptation of Core Formation, he figured the other party wouldn't refuse him.

Regardless of whether the other party is truly a member of the Enforcement Hall, as long as we can win them over this time.

Then there won't be any problems.

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.

Jiang Man watched Ji Hao leave, feeling that the other party was determined to arrange a marriage between him and Ji Hao.

There was absolutely no need for that; the marriage alliance had already ended.

He married Meng Qiewei.

Although I don't know why Meng Qiewei's surname is Meng, she is still a member of the Ji family.

However, Ji Hao said that as long as he performs well in the Misty City, he will have the confidence to make demands.

If they don't perform well, it will be difficult for them to become direct descendants.

However, collateral relatives are also possible.

Perhaps it won't be long before they send someone out to check again.

"Old Huang, I think I should go to the top of the mountains instead," Jiang Man said.

"Do you think the special fog at your wife's house is related to your extraordinary destiny?" Old Huang suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Man was taken aback and said, "The special fog of the Misty City, could it be the Fog of Seeking the Law?"

Old Huang, munching on grass, said, "Not sure."

Jiang Man pondered for a moment and felt that it was quite possible.

After all, the Five Elements Secret Realm was a secret realm brought by a great figure.

And this important figure is most likely Ji Hao.

Therefore, the Five Elements Secret Realm belongs to the Ji family, and the Seeking Law Mist is also most likely to belong to the Ji family.

The things required by the destiny of an unparalleled genius are only normal in the Ji family.

Therefore, the possibility seems very high.

Then I absolutely have to go.

"If I succeed, won't a young lady really appear?" Jiang Man asked.

"Why don't you just refuse?" the old ox said.

“I’m worried that Meng Qiewei has already seen through my identity,” Jiang Man said.

The other party was unlikely to come out, and Ji Hao was not someone she had sent.

But if anyone else comes out, it will probably be related to this.

That would be a big problem.

“Even if her true form comes out, I can escape. Don’t worry about me,” the old ox said.

Jiang Man remained silent for a moment.

Then they inquired whether there were any other risks associated with this advancement realm.

“An evil god.” The old ox calmly uttered these two words, then explained, “You have been tainted by the power of an evil god, and moreover, the evil god has left a lock on your mind.”

"Lock in the well".

Even if you break through, the marks will remain, so you will still be locked up.

"This evil god has the ability to create dreams."

"Her physical body has perished, and her remnant soul should be unable to take any action since the last time."

"But she still has subordinates."

"You might encounter these people."

If it were just a matter of locking him up, it wouldn't be a big deal.

But the fact that other people are interfering is a bit troublesome.

Jiang Man inquired about their strength.

Fortunately, the answer was that everything was safe.

The evil god's true form is dead, and the dream realm can no longer carry much power.

It will not cause any substantial harm.

However, it has a certain impact on mental state.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Man felt that there was no impact.

It might even be a form of help.

Afterwards, Jiang Man began to consolidate his own power and understand the changes brought about by the perfect foundation building.

Until October 15th.

Jiang Man bought some Qi and Blood Pills and then headed to the small hill with the iron token.

All the advancement to the secret realm is entered from this side.

When he first came, no one paid any attention to him.

But this time when he came to the hillside, many people's eyes were on him.

Wei Chuyao even came up to say hello.

Zhuo Ling simply nodded in acknowledgment.

Others, more or less, approached the matter with a degree of scrutiny and skepticism.

However, no one stepped forward to say anything.

Ranking eighth is not something these people can question to their faces.

Unless you're in the top seven.

Jiang Man ignored the gazes of these people and finally saw a man in the crowd who was all alone.

His mere presence exuded a sense of oppression.

Even Jiang Man couldn't help but be drawn to the other party; that heavy aura told everyone around him that the weight of his spiritual energy was extraordinary.

"So strong." Jiang Man thought in surprise.

When he saw the other person, he felt like he was looking at himself—confident, arrogant, and with absolute control over his physical strength.

Jiang Man previously thought he was invincible, but after discovering his opponent, he felt that his invincibility was almost shaken.

This person is dangerous.

In actual combat, without the support of the latter two secret techniques, it's really hard to say who would win or lose.

He soon learned the other person's name.

Shangguan Liuyun.

The number one outside the sect.

At this moment, some people on the periphery, though not daring to question Jiang Man to his face, still whispered, "I think his eighth place ranking is inflated, and his thirteenth place ranking is even more inflated."

"His points are based on his young age, which doesn't reflect his actual ability at all."

"If you want to compare ages, then say it's about ages. Just send him back to the Seventh Hospital."

"But he's here to compete on ability, so bringing up his age is going too far."

"The loss was made without any clear explanation, it's unfair."

The person next to him nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense, so why not tell the sect?"

"said."

"What did the sect say?" "The master wants me to become the sect leader."

"and then?"

“I refused. The sect leader does not have the freedom to study and cultivate.”

"I see."

Many people secretly questioned the decision, but none of them could refute it.

Therefore, some people are secretly competing with each other.

After entering the advancement secret realm, Jiang Man will realize that this eighth place is not genuine.

Jiang Man didn't blame these people; she only blamed herself for being too insignificant.

But it happened very soon.

Once he emerges from the secret realm, within a few months, his light will shine upon everyone in the outer sect.

Even those who are about to leave the outer gate.

They will also be bathed in his glory.

"It's almost time, everyone, please get ready."

After he finished speaking, no one did anything else.

Immediately afterwards, the light of the array spread across the plaza, instantly teleporting everyone carrying the iron tokens into the secret realm.

After feeling dizzy, Jiang Man landed at a three-way intersection.

There was no one there, and he had no idea where the others had been sent.

But standing here, you can roughly see everything around you.

Ahead are mountains, to the left is an endless sea, and to the right is a thick fog.

There was no introduction or any conditions.

Which side you choose to go is entirely up to you.

However, the aura here is stronger than that of the fixed advancement secret realm.

Therefore, it is easier to obtain the promotion method, especially in the mountains, where the feeling is particularly obvious.

"It's exactly as Mr. Ji described. It seems that it really is the secret realm he provided."

"The Seeking Dharma Mist may indeed exist here."

Jiang Man's gaze lingered on the other side of the mist, and without hesitation, he stepped forward.

As he walked in that direction, fog began to rise around him.

The fog fluctuated in size, falling on people like stinging attacks.

This forces people to activate their cultivation and begin to fight back.

But as he moved forward, all the power in his body was unleashed.

No amount of fog could affect him.

Gradually, he began to see some figures in the mist around him.

Each figure noticed his arrival and turned to look at him.

That gaze was undisguised, as if it wanted to see through him completely.

Jiang Man ignored him and continued walking forward.

After a long while, the figures in the mist finally began to move.

They blocked Jiang Man's path one after another, ready to attack.

Jiang Manzheng walked towards them.

As he got close, he unleashed a devastating Flowing Technique with a single kick.

boom!
The opponent's body shattered from bottom to top, turning into mist and dissipating.

Then some hands appeared and landed on the figure that was about to appear.

Then it turned into mist and dissipated.

The journey was smooth.

These things are not enough to warrant any other major actions from Jiang Man.

While these figures were attacking, some people from the hospital would occasionally appear.

They were somewhat surprised to see Jiang Man.

But they all launched attacks immediately.

Some even suggested testing the moisture content of the eighth grader to see its quality.

However, they were all shattered by Jiang Man's palm strike.

Finally, he vanished into the mist, still in shock.

Vulnerable.

Jiang Man wasn't sure if they were real people.

Until he saw Shangguan Liuyun, the other party only glanced at Jiang Man and then disappeared from the spot.

This made Jiang Man realize that he must have encountered a real person.

I never expected such a strange encounter.

Through the mist, Jiang Man saw a city.

There was no one in the city, nor was there any fog.

When Jiang Man entered, he found that the entire area outside the city was shrouded in mist.

He seemed to be trapped here.

Upon arriving in the city center, Jiang Man looked up slightly and discovered that the mist stretched upwards like a well.

He was down in the well.

It felt like being trapped underneath, with no way out.

They can't escape this place.

At this moment, he felt everything around him begin to change, and the fog slowly turned gray.

Some negative sentiments subsequently spread.

We must completely trap him here.

"You felt it?" A sudden voice rang out from behind.

Jiang Man turned his head and saw a man dressed in a black robe.

He immediately frowned: "It's you?"

Upon hearing this, the other person was taken aback, but quickly regained their composure: "You recognize me?"

"I didn't recognize you, I was just trying to trick you, I didn't expect you to actually fall for it. Looks like you don't have much experience." Jiang Man looked away and said, "So we know each other?"

“I know you. Who do you think I am?” Chen Yu asked.

Jiang Man shook his head: "I can't guess. There's a high chance he's never been to my house."

As soon as Lao Huang arrived, he found you out.

Chen Yu was surprised; this person was strange.

Wouldn't that make him easy to target?

But he wasn't nervous, because he had met the other person before in the archipelago.

It's hard to guess.

He then looked up at the sky and said, “Your situation is complicated. If the lock and the city don’t disappear, you will not be able to obtain the advancement method and will be trapped here forever.”

"Can't I go outside?" Jiang Man asked.

“You can try. Once you get out, all you’ll see is darkness, despair, and countless chains,” Chen Yu said softly. “But I can help you, but you need to become a Celestial Messenger.”

Jiang Man looked at the other person and smiled, saying, "Going out means darkness and despair?"

"Yes," Chen Yu said firmly.

"Have you been there?" Jiang Man asked again.

Chen remained silent.

Jiang Man laughed and said, "Let's go out and see the world, and let you experience the late-coming sun."

Chen Yu frowned, but before he could speak, Jiang Man had already walked away.

He had to keep up.

This is the city within one's heart; those whose minds are not firm enough will be trapped within it forever.

Even someone like Jiang Man, he felt, needed some time.

However.
The wind howled.

What was once a real city has vanished with the wind.

Completely shrouded in mist.

Looking back, Chen Yu was astonished to find that Cheng had appeared behind him at some point.

He endured a long and painful ordeal to leave the city, even collapsing to the ground, wailing and pleading.

Ugly, unbearable, and too horrible to look at.

At that time, only he knew how helpless and desperate he felt.

But she also hated her own weakness, unable to escape the darkness.

But why did the person in front of me appear in the blink of an eye?

"What are you looking back at?" Jiang Man's voice suddenly rang out.

Chen Yu immediately turned around and looked at Jiang Man standing behind him.

At this moment, Jiang Man chuckled and said, "Are you looking at your past self?"

Chen Yu stared behind Jiang Man and said, "You'd better take care of yourself; your path is blocked."

Jiang Man turned to look behind him and saw that all the roads ahead were blocked by iron chains.

There is no other path to take.

Moreover, the surrounding mist is swirling, forming new wells that will pull people into the abyss.

Jiang Man looked at all this and said, "Where is the blockade? The reason you feel blocked is simply because your talent is not enough."

"In my eyes, the road ahead is smooth."

After a pause, Jiang Man suddenly asked, "Were you also stopped by these things back then?"

Chen Yu did not speak.

Because he doesn't deserve it.

Compared to these, the things that stopped him back then are insignificant.

He was actually quite surprised when he saw this.

This gives people absolutely no chance.

He could feel the despair and helplessness.

Does the person in front of me really not notice anything at all?

Or are we just deceiving ourselves?
