The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 192 Little Yellow, My Becoming a Great Power is Just Around the Corner

Once Jiang Man began to suspect that the woman was Meng Qiewei, he was already convinced that the person was Meng Qiewei.

He was convinced that his intuition was correct.

Looking at the other person, he felt a sense of beauty.

This kind of beauty has only appeared in Meng Qiewei.

It's very likely the feeling of looking at a Daoist partner.

Regardless, Jiang Man could not regard him as an ordinary person.

It cannot even be ignored.

This resulted in him not being able to concentrate for about an incense stick's time during his cultivation.

Left with no other option, he could only attend classes at the Fifth Academy to calm his nerves.

I had just arrived when I heard the news about Zhao Tiankuo.

"He's already reached the Foundation Establishment stage?" Jiang was surprised.

It is impossible to determine how the other party succeeded.

Could it be that, like me, he is an unparalleled genius?
After a brief recollection, Jiang Man didn't realize that the other party was an unparalleled genius.

Hidden?
If this is possible, could the extra aura on my body be related to the other person?

It's still uncertain.

But there's definitely something wrong with the other party.

After inquiring about the reason, Wei Beichuan said, "I heard that his success was not without reason."

"First, one must obtain the qualification to enter the Qi Refining Secret Manual in Yunqian Division. Second, one must give up the ranking in Yunqian Division and start cultivating again ahead of time. Then, one must also cultivate the advancement method. This also requires someone in the sect to help him buy a cultivation qualification."

"With these qualifications, all that's left is to work hard."

"When entering a sect, it is best to enter the Qi Refining Secret Realm at the ninth level of Qi Refining."

"If we fail to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining in the end, then there will be a big problem."

"I heard that Zhao Tiankuo just advanced to the ninth level of Qi Refining after entering the sect."

"Barely able to establish a foundation."

"That's not what people outside say. They say Zhao Tiankuo is the real prodigy," Lin Qingshan said helplessly. "They even say that Jiang Mancai came up through this path, his foundation is unstable, so he's still in the outer sect and doesn't dare to enter the inner sect."

"And they even said that you need to stay up all night to improve quickly."

"But Zhao Tiankuo didn't stay up all night."

Cao Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "However, after my investigation, I found that Zhao Tiankuo is timid and cowardly, and his achievements are all due to his family's arrangements."

"But even if it's arranged, it's not easy for us to take the lead."

There are many points of discussion regarding Zhao Tiankuo's abilities.

Is it talent or resources? Can it be replicated?

How does it compare to Jiang Man?

What kind of personality they have determines whether they can go far in the future.

Regardless of the discussions, Zhao Tiankuo has indeed become the new prodigy of the outer sect.

Especially since Jiang Man was walking ahead, many people would make comparisons with him.

Otherwise, so many people wouldn't be paying attention and discussing it.

Jiang Man felt that the other party was a bit strange.

But I never imagined that the other party would become a prominent figure as soon as they arrived.

As for whether it's talent or not, he doesn't care.

No matter how talented you are, you can't surpass him.

Secondly, there are no prodigies in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Only after achieving the Golden Elixir did he realize how vast the difference was between the two.

Great difference.

Not to mention the primordial spirit.

The road ahead is too long, and the increasing difficulty cannot be compensated for by the speed of Foundation Establishment cultivation.

His main focus was still on the aura emanating from the person, and where it came from.

Mr. Yan arrived quickly. She was taken aback when she saw Jiang Man: "You're not looking for me, are you?"

Jiang Man shook his head.

The other party breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that he can't sleep peacefully because of the evil god.

After the lecture, Jiang Man returned to his residence.

Ji Hao was already waiting for him here.

Seeing the other party now, Jiang Man felt a surge of hatred, hating himself for being blinded by the spiritual source.

If it weren't for that 15,000, why would I be so upset?

"Junior brother is back?" Ji Hao asked with a smile. "Would you like to come in and have a seat?"

Jiang Man nodded, wondering what the other person wanted to say this time.

I could ignore it before, but not anymore.

However, he was curious whether Ji Hao knew that Meng Qiewei had arrived.

Just listen to what the other person has to say about them.

After entering, Jiang Man brought a chair for Ji Hao.

After sitting down, Ji Hao looked at the old ox and said, "Junior brother, you raise oxen?"

"Mm." Jiang Man nodded without saying anything more.

Old Huang's background is suspicious and cannot withstand thorough investigation, so it's best not to pay attention to him.

Jiang Man then brought up what happened yesterday:
"Mr. Ji, are you here today because of yesterday?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Hao nodded and said, "That's true. What do you think of Ji Meng, Junior Brother?"

A dream? Jiang Man felt he was not mistaken.

The other party is Meng Qiewei.

What do you think of the other person?
How do I bring this up?
Seeing Jiang Man remain silent, Ji Hao continued, "It's like this, my younger sister is quite good at formations, would you like her to teach you some?"

“I checked, and it seems you haven’t even started studying your minor yet.”

Sister? It seems Ji Hao is unaware of the other party's identity.

"An array?" Jiang Man pondered for a moment, then asked, "How much spiritual energy?"

As for minor studies, you'll always need to contribute spiritual resources.

"Three thousand," Ji Hao said.

"One month?" Jiang Man thought it was quite cheap.

“Teach me once,” Ji Hao said.

Jiang Man was taken aback.

Three thousand at a time?
too expensive.

However, since the person on the other end was Meng Qiewei, he found it difficult to refuse.

"Three thousand is too few?" Ji Hao asked.

“No, no, not a few.” Jiang Man immediately shook his head.

“Alright, I’ll give you three thousand for each lesson you take,” Ji Hao said.

Jiang Man was taken aback, then said righteously, "I love learning."

Ji Hao is simply a genius whose talents are somewhat wasted.

Having become a peerless genius who has traversed the heavens and earth, Ji Hao should also be promoted to a peerless genius.

He felt it was unreasonable for such a person not to be an unparalleled genius.

Jiang Man then questioned Zhao Tiankuo.

"This person?" Ji Hao pondered for a moment and said, "His path to becoming stronger is public, and it can even be replicated, but it's not easy, and every step has to be just right, otherwise it won't work."

"He's the one you brought. What do you think of him?"

Jiang Man recalled that the other party's personality and talent were both average.

It's absolutely unimaginable that someone could reach the Foundation Establishment stage right away.

He no longer possesses the extraordinary charisma he once had.

But that's exactly the path they took.

Jiang Man told the truth.

"We can keep an eye on it for a while and see how things go," Ji Hao said.

His investigation revealed that everything the other party did was arranged by the clan.

He himself has no opinions of his own and can only follow orders.

Jiang Man found it strange, but there wasn't much information available at the moment.

Then just wait.

Right now, we still need to improve our cultivation level. In addition, the Immortal Abode is about to open.

The Immortal Abode is different from other secret realms.

It is unknown; they have to explore what's inside.

Furthermore, it is unknown how long it will take to get out after going in.

Only inner disciples are allowed to enter such a secret realm.

In other words, the lowest level required is the Golden Elixir.

Otherwise, they wouldn't even qualify to enter. The sect doesn't allow outer disciples to die in vain.

Therefore, under the great rule of the immortal sects, there is an upper limit to what one can obtain upon reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

Such was the circumstance.

After chatting for a while, Ji Hao left.

"Old Huang, do you think this Zhao Tiankuo has a serious problem?" Jiang Man asked.

"You, a peerless genius who can traverse the heavens and earth, need to pay attention to him?" Old Huang asked.

Jiang Man nodded slightly: "Normally, it's not necessary, but I have some extra tricks up my sleeve, so I can't be underestimated."

"But it won't take too much effort, after all, becoming stronger is what I need to do."

Jiang Man has always understood that only by being strong enough can all problems be solved.

If you can't solve it, then you're not strong enough.

Just keep getting stronger.

"You should still worry about how to deal with your wife, and then think about how to handle that other person's task," the old ox reminded him.

Jiang Man was stunned for a moment.

For a moment, he felt that the trouble Zhao Tiankuo had brought was indeed not that great.

Because he is now facing Meng Qiewei and Tingfengyin, neither of whom are comparable to the people from the sect.

But he didn't know how to do it.

Now that things have come to this, the only thing to do is to cultivate myself.

I hope the Immortal Abode will open soon.

-

inner door.

Zhao Tiankuo's guards were standing in a courtyard.

Bow your head respectfully.

Ahead of him stood a rather young man who looked up at the fruit on the tree and asked, "Old Meng, when do you think these fruits will ripen?"

Old Meng bowed his head respectfully and said, "It should be soon."

The man sighed, "It's not easy. I'm afraid something might happen along the way. We still have to be careful. If someone does something to this tree, the fruit could easily be damaged."

“Yes, we should try our best to eliminate unnecessary threats,” Old Meng said.

"What do you think is the most dangerous?" the man asked calmly.

"Jiang Man was the one who sent that person to the sect. He probably never expected that they would directly reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Now he must be filled with resentment and bitterness, knowing what kind of person he underestimated. Moreover, he has always been at odds with us, so naturally he can't stand to see us doing well," Old Meng continued.
"Now he must be filled with regret. He missed the rise of a prodigy. If he had just given him a hand back then, it would have been a great story."

Upon hearing this, the man turned his gaze back to Old Meng and said, "We were talking about fruit, why did you bring up Jiang Man? He's no nobody, his strength is obvious to all."

Old Meng retorted, "A person who dares not enter the inner sect will naturally be looked down upon."

"He does have some ability, but that's about the limit."

"If it were the young master who had reached the Golden Core stage, he would surely have stepped into the inner sect without hesitation, rather than lingering in the outer sect."

"What kind of nonsense is this?"

"Is it a lack of self-confidence, or fear of other Golden Core cultivators?"
"That would be a inferior approach."

"It's too early to tell the specifics," the man said with a smile. "But since you see him as a threat, how do you think you should deal with him?"

"If this is a hypothetical situation, then Third Master, how do you think we should respond?" Old Meng asked abruptly.

The man, referred to as Third Master, pondered for a moment and said, "Although he is in the outer sect, the Immortal Abode is about to open, and I imagine someone will want to discuss some things with him."

"This is something we naturally cannot interfere with."

"However, I heard that he is a sentimental person. He raised a cow when he was young and has been taking it with him since he started cultivating."

Such friendship is truly enviable.

"only."

He looked at Lao Meng curiously and asked, "How many years do you think a normal cow lives?"

"Ten years?" Old Meng replied.

"How many years has this ox been raised? At least a dozen years, how come it's still alive and well?" Third Master looked at Old Meng with a curious expression.

At that moment, I thought maybe the cow was just old; such things do happen.

But looking into Third Master's eyes, he suddenly realized and said, "Something is definitely amiss. This ox is not normal."

Third Master suddenly realized, "So it was the scalper who was acting strangely. No wonder, how could someone who doesn't have family support progress so quickly?"

Old Meng's thoughts raced: "The reason Jiang Man was able to progress so quickly is entirely because this ox is not an ordinary yellow ox; it is an evil god who has not yet recovered from its injuries."

"Help Jiang Man improve its cultivation so that we can find an opportunity to help it recover."

After a moment's thought, Third Master realized, "So that's how it is. Jiang Man relies on an evil god, which makes sense."

“Yes.” Old Meng finally understood, and then continued, “I previously obtained an aura related to an evil god. If it can be integrated into the old ox, then it means that it is an evil god.”

"And it would be best to wait until Jiang Man enters the Immortal Abode and confirm this matter when he lowers his guard."

"It has been confirmed that he colluded with evil gods."

Upon hearing this, Third Master chuckled and said, "Don't make things up without evidence."

“I understand,” Old Meng nodded.

He has plenty of evidence, as long as the aura of the evil god merges into the old ox.

Then the other party is an evil god.

Could this old ox possibly claim that it was innocent?
His opening of his mouth further confirms that he is an evil god.

Once Jiang Man comes out, there will be no chance to turn the tide.

The other party has some strength, but he actually dared to say he would dismiss the elder, so it's better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free.

In the end, he would have to lay a rough foundation for his path forward.

Furthermore, when a person is weak, he or she will always pay the price for his or her arrogance.

Now all we need to do is prepare the necessary items and wait for Jiang Man to enter the Immortal Abode.

Jiang Man did not go out in November, but instead focused on improving his Golden Elixir Technique.

There was no substantial improvement after a month.

However, there are still two months left before it is fully completed.

He didn't want to do anything else; he could only continue to improve.

Ji Hao asked him to go and learn formation techniques from Meng Qiewei, but he refused.

How could we miss this crucial moment?
Ji Hao wasn't in a hurry; instead, he waited.

Two months is actually a very long time.

There will always be some minor issues that arise.

For example, someone might ask for directions, or some senior students might want to see him.

Most of the inquiries were about whether they lacked spiritual resources, and they said their family could provide sufficient assistance.

Of course, there will be some conditions.

In order to calm down, he even sought out Mr. Yan and Ji Hao.

Finally, things have quieted down for a while.

However, the nine hundred days of the Peerless Prodigy Destiny expired this month.

But it only vibrated briefly before starting to spin.

No new challenges have emerged.

I realized I was too late, so I'll figure out a way to catch up.

By the end of December, Jiang Man felt he was only one step away from achieving great success.

By the end of January, Jiang Man felt that he had already stepped into Dacheng.

Early February.

Jiang Man received Meng Qiewei's invitation the day after.

The body began to radiate light, and all the spiritual energies converged into one.

The golden elixir began to circulate, nourishing the eight extraordinary meridians and the entire body.

It was a feeling of clarity, as if power could flow throughout the entire body.

Complete control over the power unleashed by the Golden Core.

All rivers flow into the sea, achieving greatness.

Jiang Man has a sense of heroic spirit.

He could finally improve his cultivation level; the elders of the Zhao family were still waiting for him to catch up.

But I have to keep my appointment today.

"You dared to delay your wife's invitation for the sake of cultivation? Aren't you afraid?" the old ox asked.

"Little Huang, I have achieved the Great Perfection of the Hundred Rivers Converging into the Sea, and becoming a Primordial Spirit Powerhouse is just around the corner," Jiang Man said with a smile.

The old ox was silent for a moment before saying, "Your wife has left a mark on you, so she can attack you at any time."

Jiang Man was taken aback, then immediately said, "Little Huang, I'll let you experience my cultivation speed another day. I'm going to find my wife."

On the other side, Qingdai was extremely surprised.

Invitations have already been sent out, but the son-in-law isn't coming.

He probably doesn't realize who he's keeping waiting for.

She herself was worried that the young lady would fly into a rage and attack.
