The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

"The Confucian school is located in the State of Qi. Are you planning to ask the Confucian school to uphold justice?" Jiang Chuan asked An Qisheng with some curiosity.

An Qisheng did not answer this question.

But Jiang Chuan gleaned the answer from the other person's subtle expression.

Without a doubt, it is not Confucianism.

If he wasn't a Confucian, then who was An Qisheng planning to find to help him uphold justice?

Then, Jiang Chuan realized something else.

Tiantai Mountain is only about 20 kilometers away from Langya, which is ridiculously close.

Xu Fu's ancestral home was Langya.

These two individuals are renowned figures among alchemists; it would be impossible for them not to know each other.

"Do you know Xu Fu of the Yin-Yang School?"

Jiang Chuan suddenly spoke.

An Qisheng's pupils contracted slightly in surprise, though he quickly regained his composure. Jiang Chuan still caught this fleeting change.

"That's interesting!"

A faint smile appeared on Jiang Chuan's lips.

(Wang Dede)

"It really came without any effort at all."

"How did you know I've been searching for Xu Fu recently?"

"As his old friend, you should know where he is."

Upon hearing Jiang Chuan's words, An Qisheng was startled. He was very close to Xu Fu of the Yin-Yang School and knew how powerful the Yin-Yang School was. He also had the idea of ​​siding with the Yin-Yang School.

His dojo was invaded by a mysterious powerful figure, and he wanted to find the Yin-Yang School to seek justice for him.

Unexpectedly, the other party's purpose from the very beginning was to cause trouble for the Yin-Yang School and to find Xu Fu's whereabouts.

In the next instant, Jiang Chuan leaped out and arrived in front of An Qisheng, ready to subdue him.

An Qisheng saw through Jiang Chuan's intentions and immediately fought back, his powerful energy surging from his body. Unfortunately, it was no match for Jiang Chuan and he was easily suppressed.

Chapter 396 Xu Fu, you've made me search so hard!

"Whatever you wish to ask, I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

After Jiang Chuan displayed his formidable strength and easily suppressed An Qisheng, An Qisheng demonstrated what true integrity and moral character are.

On the surface, he appears to be a hermit practicing Taoist magic in the mountains, detached from worldly affairs and solely seeking the path to immortality.

But in reality, he wasn't as extraordinary as he seemed.

His jealousy and murderous intent stemmed from drawing power from the Fusang Divine Tree in Tang Valley, proving that he was just an ordinary person.

In fact, he himself is just an ordinary person.

In the original history, the fact that he was willing to meet Ying Zheng three times and tell him about the Dao of the Immortals is enough to show that he was no different from people like Lu Sheng.

Judging from his age, he may not be young.

But aside from his age, there's nothing particularly noteworthy or respectable about Jiang Chuan.

"You are quite sensible."

Jiang Chuan looked at An Qisheng, whose power had been completely sealed by him, his head bowed, and he couldn't help but praise him.

An Qisheng lowered his head and couldn't help but mutter to himself. How could he be so ungrateful? The person in front of him was incredibly strong and easily defeated him. Afterwards, the person even used strange methods to seal all of his power.

Admittedly, he had previously sought out a master of Yin-Yang philosophy to "uphold justice" for him, but only if he could escape from this place.

The other party easily subdued him.

His powers were sealed, leaving him like a fish on a chopping board; if he didn't comply, death would be the only outcome.

“I’ve already said what I wanted to ask,” Jiang Chuan said calmly.

An Qisheng's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "I'm not entirely sure about Xu Fu's whereabouts, but I do know something about what he's been up to lately..."

An Qisheng recounted what he knew in detail.

In the beginning, Xu Fu was just an ordinary alchemist from the Qi-Lu region.

There are many people like this.

Among them, some, like him, were not born into prestigious families such as the Hundred Schools of Thought, but had a lineage of teachers and could be said to have a clear lineage. Others were born out of wedlock, having heard legends of overseas immortals from who knows where, and tried to seek immortality themselves. Whether they succeeded in finding immortality is hard to say, but they certainly fabricated many methods for seeking immortality.

Xu Fu was originally a sorcerer, but because of his eloquence, he was quite famous among the many sorcerers in the State of Qi.

He disappeared for many years, and when he returned, he had become the Jin Elder, the head of the five elders of the Yin-Yang School. The Yin-Yang School was extremely mysterious among the Hundred Schools of Thought.

But it was not unfamiliar to the alchemists of the Qi-Lu region.

In the past, the Yin-Yang School served the State of Yan and even helped it to the point of nearly destroying the State of Qi.

Many alchemists in the Qi-Lu region gradually formed their own schools during that time, influenced by the Yin-Yang school.

The first thing Xu Fu did after returning as an elder of the Yin-Yang School was to find many alchemists in the State of Qi and inquire about the situation overseas. He even told these alchemists that the Yin-Yang School had found traces of the existence of immortals, who were hiding overseas. They were simply unaware of the situation overseas, and that if they could help them go to sea to find the immortals, they could do so.

One day, we may share in the blessings of immortality.

Some scoffed at such claims, while many others sided with Xu Fu.

Xu Fu is very likely currently in the company of a few people, diligently compiling nautical charts.

……

Jiang Chuan ultimately let An Qisheng go; after all, he had no grudge against An Qisheng.

During his trip to Tiantai Mountain, he encountered an unexpected stroke of good fortune.

He continued traveling through the coastal areas of the State of Qi afterward. (chaf)

During this period, the Qin army was stationed on the border of Qi, and the state of Qi was in grave danger.

People in inland areas are filled with fear and anxiety.

People living by the sea are even more direct. Some of them take their families by boat to overseas lands, find an unnamed island, and hide there. Others, although they haven't fled yet, have indeed made such preparations.

It can only be said that living in coastal areas does indeed give people more options than ordinary people when war comes.

While observing the local customs and culture along the way, Jiang Chuan also visited many famous alchemists in the State of Qi.

These people have been going to sea to seek immortality for many years and have a deep understanding of the ocean.

Although Xu Fu was from Langya Commandery and was quite famous there in his youth, he later left Qi and joined the Yin-Yang School. The Yin-Yang School was based in Qin, which was far from the sea, so Xu Fu did not know as much about the sea as one might imagine.

Jiang Chuan visited these alchemists and learned from them that Xu Fu had indeed visited them not long ago to inquire about the sea.

Although Xu Fu's whereabouts are still unknown, Jiang Chuan has been able to further confirm Xu Fu's exact location.

In a desolate mountain near the sea.

This place is not as famous as Mount Tiantai. A Taoist priest who was quite famous in the State of Qi lived in seclusion here.

The opposing sect has many disciples who have gone to sea repeatedly over the years.

Although no trace of the immortals has been found, they are extremely knowledgeable about the dangers lurking in the nearby seas and the islands along the way.

A middle-aged man with slightly dark skin, dressed in a white robe with cloud patterns and wearing a hat, was holding a scroll of animal skin illustrations. He listened to the person in front of him describe the situation of the sea while quietly taking notes.

"Thank you sir."

After the record was completed, Xu Fu, the Lord of the Clouds, thanked the old man before him.

The old man stroked his beard and said, "Mr. Xu, you are too kind. Searching for immortals at sea has been a long-cherished wish of our sect for many years. If Mr. Xu's Yin-Yang School can really find the immortals and the immortal mountains, it will be a fulfillment of our long-cherished wish."

Xu Fu said that they would definitely find the immortal mountain.

Afterwards, Xu Fu did not stay in this desolate mountain for too long. Instead, he bid farewell to the old man and prepared to go to another place to continue perfecting the nautical chart in his hands.

However, not long after he left this desolate mountain, a powerful aura immediately struck. Xu Fu sensed this aura and his brows furrowed in deep thought.

Immediately afterwards, a figure slowly emerged in mid-air ahead.

The other person exuded an aura of transcendence, and upon seeing Xu Fu, his gaze revealed an even more sharp and piercing intensity.

"Xu Fu, I have gone to great lengths to find you!"

"You've made me search so hard!"

Chapter 397 Crushed to Ashes

"Who is your Excellency?"

When Xu Fu saw the person in front of him appear floating in the air, his pupils immediately contracted slightly. Being cautious and suspicious by nature, he couldn't help but ask the person in front of him a question.

However, Jiang Chuan, who was opposite him, had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with Xu Fu.

He raised his arm and struck at Xu Fu.

Xu Fu sensed an immense crisis approaching, and he instinctively drew the "Amaterasu Sword" hanging at his waist. This sword was very similar to a samurai sword, a single-edged sword with a curve.
