The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 183 My husband must be very happy, right?

Jiang Man pondered for a moment.

I don't think this is a good thing.

No change is actually the best thing.

But this time the change was too great, and Meng Qiewei simply did not appear.

The most likely explanation is that she can't come, or secondly, she's brewing something bad.

The likelihood of forgetting oneself or letting go of oneself is not very high.

Such a strong person must have a lot of free time.

If conditions permit, there's no reason not to come.

Jiang Man was silent for a moment before saying, "Just now, another problem has arisen in Luoyun City. I now suspect that the problem in Luoyun City is not the demonic beasts, but the immortal sects."

As he spoke, he looked at the old ox and asked, "Old ox, you didn't leave any traces, did you?"

"As long as you don't admit it, no one will know it's you," Old Huang said casually.

Jiang Man exclaimed in admiration, "Old Huang is really amazing."

"Old Huang, in your prime, who was stronger, you or my wife?" Jiang Man asked.

The old ox remained silent.

Jiang Man didn't care.

Instead, they prepared to set off for Luoyun City.

He paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered something from long ago: "Old Huang, I remember asking you before how to help you regain your strength, and you said you'd talk about it after I survived. Now, I've left the peerless genius destiny far behind."

"Can you tell me now?"

"You're too weak. Wait until you become stronger," the old ox said.

Jiang Man nodded: "That works too, we don't have much time anyway."

The old ox glanced at Jiang Man and said, "You're getting too cocky."

"It's arrogance to be unworthy of one's position. My cultivation level doesn't match my talent; I'm still within the realm of humility," Jiang Man said confidently.

The old ox fell silent.

Head down, eating grass.

Jiang Man then carefully stored away his storage magic item and prepared to leave on his sword.

Before he could even turn around, he noticed a light emanating from Old Huang.

"Your beloved wife has written a letter," Old Huang said.

"Old Huang has to admit one thing: my wife is too beautiful. She deliberately spoke to me in a cold tone several times. As a young man, I definitely couldn't handle it." Jiang Man said, reaching out to take out the ball of light.

But he didn't stop talking: "Old Huang, have you ever had such an experience? When you were young, did a woman as exceptional as Meng Qiewei show interest in you?"

Did you block it?

The old ox lowered its head and ate grass.

At this moment, Jiang Man had already heard Meng Qiewei's message.

"My lord, the people of the Immortal Sect have been investigating. A powerful figure has entered the Magpie Bridge and blocked my way. I can't go to see you. I've been sulking for a long time. You must be very happy, right? I'm locked up here by them and can't get out. Even seeing you is a luxury. When you become stronger in the future, will you come and take me out?" A soft voice echoed in Jiang Man's mind.

After a pause, the ball of light spoke again: "Will my husband be defeated by the destiny of an unparalleled genius? If my husband dies, I will be a widow and have to remain a widow for my husband for the rest of my life."

"Those people outside are still speculating whether I'm hiding my husband in the room, and they're even going to forcibly search my place."

"They ganged up on me."

Jiang Man remained silent for a moment.

The immortal sects have launched a thorough investigation, and even Meng Qiewei doesn't dare to come out, which means that a truly powerful figure has intervened.

Jiang Man immediately informed the old ox.

"A powerful figure who even your wife is worried about should be able to find out something, but not much," the old ox said.

Jiang Man admired him; he had underestimated Lao Huang.

"But something's strange. The rules of the Immortal Sect should be quite old. How come someone suddenly entered the Magpie Bridge? You'd better be careful," the old ox warned.

Jiang Man nodded, then asked another question: "Is it believable that Meng Qiewei said someone bullied her?"

"The people of the Immortal Sect don't believe it, but whether you believe it or not is another matter," the old ox said.

“I don’t believe it either,” Jiang Man said.

Someone like Meng Qiewei, whose mere movement can cause major problems, who would dare to bully her?
The old woman has a terrible temper; people are afraid of her, let alone dare to bully her.
Isn't that just asking for trouble?

Jiang Man shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Now that it's confirmed Meng Qiewei won't be coming, there's no need to worry about her suddenly showing up.

You can set off with peace of mind now.

In order to get to Luoyun City, he specifically asked for a map, as it was quite far away.

Mid-August is the time for the Yunqian Division's assessment.

I need to get to Yunqiansi before mid-August.

In addition, we must complete the mission as soon as possible and bring the people back.

As for the qualifications for this assessment, Jiang Man only needs to tell Mr. Yan.

It's not complicated.

Senior Sister Yu back then was probably like that too.

However, she came from the inner sect, while I am just an outer sect member, so my status is actually low.

However, the relevant information should have also been sent to Yunqian Division.

I just don't know how to introduce myself.

Outer disciple or inner disciple.

When the handover takes place, we'll have a general idea of ​​what's going on.

If they take it seriously enough, then the documents that come down will probably be about internal affairs.

If they don't take it seriously enough, then they must be from the outer sect.

Jiang Man was merely curious about this, but didn't care about the specifics.

After all, Song Qing had already been asked to help investigate.

As long as Yun Qiansi doesn't hold me back, that's fine.

The most troublesome thing along the way is how to cultivate while traveling.

We can't waste this much time.

That's too lazy.

August 3rd.

Luoyun City, Yunqian Division.

Song Qing had been waiting here since early morning, chatting with the guards at the entrance.

"Why has Guard Song been coming to my place so often these past few days?" a middle-aged guard asked.

Song Qing laughed and said, "A friend of mine said he was coming, but I wasn't sure when exactly, so I came a few days early to wait for him."

The middle-aged guard was quite surprised: "Is your friend that important?"

Who gets to wait several days in advance?

Although Song Qing had no background, he was a guard of the Yunqian Division.

They were working for Yunqian Si.

Compared to others, he is far superior.

Of course, within the overall cloud computing sector, it's nothing special.

They were almost identical to the gatekeepers.

“Of course it’s important.” A younger man standing nearby sneered, “They said they’re friends from the sect.”

"Could you not come a few days in advance to wait?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged guard asked curiously, "People from the sect? Fellow cultivators in the Qi Refining Academy?"

The young guard laughed again and said, "What Qi Refining? What if they're Foundation Establishment?"

Song Qing shook his head awkwardly: "Neither."

"So those are fellow cultivators working in the sect? Actually, they're not bad; they have a much brighter future than us." The middle-aged guard said with some envy.

"It's true, but some people are too sycophantic. They think that when a big shot from their sect comes, they'll grovel and kneel down. They've been waiting for days, and they're still happy to be fooled." The young guard said sarcastically. "He probably still feels proud and powerful, that his fellow cultivators from his sect have come to see him, and he's showing off here."

The middle-aged man immediately interrupted the other person, saying that it was going too far.

Song Qing didn't say anything, just gave an awkward smile.

I won't explain further.

Because Jiang Manlai seemed to have a special mission, he didn't dare to say anything recklessly.

If it affects the mission, that would be bad.

I just shamelessly sat here and waited quietly.

I thought I would have to wait all day and come back tomorrow.

But not long after, he saw a person appear at the gate.

He stood there, seemingly filled with emotion.

Upon seeing this, Song Qing immediately stood up.

江满
coming.

At this moment, Jiang Man used a dragon to travel all the way from the city wall to this place.

He was still dressed in the same ordinary clothes, not on purpose, but simply out of habit, and hadn't changed them.

No one mentioned these things, so they just let things take their course.

Now that he is a Golden Core Ancestor, he no longer needs to use such petty tricks to earn spiritual resources.

Looking at the familiar gate, Jiang Man recalled the past.

"It's been four years."

He sighed.

Four years ago, he entered the sect with the highest score.

At that time, I was a prominent figure in Yunqian Division.

Everyone who sees him will be stung by his unparalleled brilliance and will have to bow their heads.

Now, four years have passed, and the students and trainees have all been replaced.

I'm afraid not many people will recognize me.

That's why Mr. Zhao and Mr. Fu didn't forget themselves.

However, he didn't intend to bother them; his main priority was to find Song Qing first. Then there was the sect assessment two days later.

The document he received stated that this recruitment drive would accept 100 people, with the possibility of increasing the number by five or decreasing it by five, depending on the circumstances.

This is within his sphere of authority.

In addition, there are some verbal instructions about the surroundings.

As is customary, he also has to take some time to inspect the area.

In short, there are many things to do, but they can be completed in one day.

The task itself is still the most difficult part.

But where is Song Qing?
I forgot to ask him where he was working, so I'll go find him myself.

As he was thinking about how to find the person, Song Qing's voice came from the side: "Jiang Man".

Seeing the other person walk out of the guard post, Jiang Man asked in surprise, "Aren't you a sect's transport guard? Why are you doing such an easy job?"

Song Qing was taken aback. "You're not happy about doing something easier?"

"You've been lazy and haven't been cultivating properly, have you?" Jiang Man shook his head and sighed.

This laziness made him quite upset. What's wrong with everyone suffering together?

Song Qing felt ashamed, as he had been waiting these past few days and hadn't been able to cultivate properly.

"Is this the friend you have work with in the sect? You've been waiting here for days, quite a grand affair," the young man said jokingly as he stepped out.

His words, however, carried a hint of mockery.

Jiang Man looked at the other person and breathed a sigh of relief.

So it turns out they weren't here to enjoy themselves, but to be looked down upon. That's good then.

"Have you been waiting for me these past few days?" Jiang Man asked.

"I don't know when you'll be arriving, so I can only wait as the time approaches," Song Qing said truthfully.

Jiang Man sighed and said, "What a waste of cultivation time."

Song Qing: "."

"Did you find anything?" Jiang Man asked.

He ignored the sarcastic person.

He couldn't understand what it meant to have friends who had work to do.

There was no need for him to explain.

Soon, the other party will know who you are.

When he stood on the assessment platform, with the dean accompanying him, this scene spoke volumes.

"I have some information, in the back mountains outside the city," Song Qing recalled. "That area has been sealed off, guarded by the Yunqian Division. They're probably waiting for the sect to come and deal with it."

There were three groups of monsters inside.

Some of them escaped.

"It is said that he has the cultivation level of the early stage of Foundation Establishment."

"There were even some in the middle and later stages, but fortunately they didn't come out."

"Although Yun Qiansi has reached the Foundation Establishment stage, he is still no match for the beast horde."

"We can only use some magical artifacts to cover that area to ensure there won't be any problems."

"However, the monsters have become more active recently, and I wonder if there will be even bigger changes."

Jiang Man decided to go and take a look.

So far, there should be no demonic beasts at the Golden Core level.

If so, it would be quite troublesome.

He is not considered strong among those who reach the Golden Core stage.

We are still in the stage of improving the Golden Elixir Method.

The same applies to magic and spells.

We can only rely on the old methods.

Of course, this comparison is made with Golden Core cultivators who are pure and without impurities.

If one is still refining the impurities of the Golden Core, then the weight of one's own spiritual energy will be superior to that of the other.

"Let's go take a look." With that, Jiang Man led Song Qing away.

Watching the two leave, the neglected young man snorted coldly.

In the end, he didn't say anything.

After all, he was working for a sect, so he didn't dare to act recklessly.

They only dare to say a few mild words; they have to think twice before saying anything too harsh.

However, how could Song Qing, whose family was not capable and who himself was just an ordinary person, have fellow cultivators from a sect?

This made him less than happy.

She's usually not as good as him.

Why did they suddenly become so smug?

"There's no need for that," the middle-aged guard kindly said.

"Just saying a few words, nothing serious, he's not some big shot," the young guard said casually.

“Song Qing has some important fellow practitioners. It’s said that he was able to join the guard team because one of his fellow practitioners is the number one in the Cloud Front Division,” the middle-aged guard said.

"Why would such an important figure come back to see Song Qing? If he were to come back, he would contact the higher-ups of the Yunqian Division to receive him. Why would Song Qing have to wait here? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?" the young guard said.

The middle-aged man shook his head and didn't say anything more.

Although he also thought so, Song Qing had neither talent nor background.

It was definitely not his turn to receive them.

-

Jiang Man and Song Qing had just left the gate of Yunqian Division not long ago.

Suddenly, they saw a man dressed in tattered clothes.

"Jiang Man?" the other person asked, looking at Jiang Man.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Man was quite surprised: "Who are you?"

"Someone asked me to give this to you." The other person handed a box to Jiang Man.

After taking the item, the other party quickly left.

This sudden event surprised Jiang.

He looked at Song Qing.

The latter shook his head, unaware of the matter.

Jiang Man opened the box and saw a blood-red statue inside, similar to the evil god statue in his home.

Without looking closely, I closed it.

Then the box disappeared from his hand.

Seeing this, Song Qing was not surprised, as he had seen it before.

He didn't ask any further questions about the box.

Sometimes, knowing too much can be dangerous.

-

Outside Luoyun City.

The middle-aged man flew away on his sword.

The items have been handed over to Jiang Man; now we're just waiting for him to use them.

That's something that can enhance one's talent; once you start using it, you'll be hooked.

Finally, he was corrupted by an evil god, and his entire mind and spirit were consumed by it.

It was completely absorbed.

He has another statue.

One yin and one yang.

He will be the ultimate victor.

This place is too remote, so it won't be easy for the sect to investigate.

Furthermore, because of its remote location, Jiang Man would definitely be willing to take the risk.

As long as you try
Everything will then be set in stone.

Now all he needs to do is find a place to wait.

Meanwhile, Cheng Yu returned to Luoyun City once again.

She went to the dean and explained what had happened.

Out of curiosity, the dean asked, "Miss Cheng, do you know who the sect has sent this time?"

“Jiang Man,” Cheng Yu told truthfully, “If there are no surprises, it will be him, the former number one of Yunqian Division.”

"When will he arrive?" the dean asked.

He knew who it was, but the other person never came.

“Find Song Qing,” Cheng Yu said after a moment’s thought. “I remember he would come directly to Song Qing, as if he wanted Song Qing to help him find out something.”

"He should have arrived by now, after all, he has a mission to complete."

The dean was somewhat surprised. Who was Song Qing?
Then he asked one last question: "Miss Cheng, do you know what level of cultivation the other party possesses?"

The document issued from above is somewhat unusual.

They indicated that the other party was an outer disciple, but also stated that the dean needed to receive them personally.

Simply put, even though they are outer disciples, they are treated like inner disciples.

This left him completely baffled.

Cheng Yu remained silent for a moment.

Seeing this, the dean asked with some surprise, "Is there something you're having trouble saying?"

Cheng Yu immediately shook her head: "No, it's just that I don't know how to say it right now. These are all things that everyone knows."

"Everyone knows this?" the dean asked.

"Well, let me briefly describe his final achievements," Cheng Yu said slowly, her tone becoming serious. "Jiang Man, after four years of study, participated in the First, Second, and Third Academies Grand Competition as one of the Six Academies, and finally successfully formed his Golden Core using the Third Method, reaching the early stage of the Golden Core realm, becoming the number one outer sect disciple, and even..."

Cheng Yu paused for a moment, then continued, "The sect will rewrite the simplified visualization method because of him, and it should be promoted to all Yunqian Divisions in a few years."
