Cultivating Immortals in Two Realms, I Possessed the Primordial Thunder Vine

Chapter 25 Jade Eye Slip! The Longevity Scripture

"As expected, villains die from talking too much!"

After taking the other person's storage bag, Xu Changjun checked the surroundings for any other oversights and found that everything was charred black, which could be considered as destroying evidence.

If you wash it with a water-repelling talisman, even the most skilled tracker won't be able to find a trace of him.

He quickly left the area, disappearing from sight in a few flashes.

……

Zhou Jinyu, the deputy sect leader of Fenghuang Sect, was determined to succeed, but not only did he fail, he also lost everything, including his cultivation.

His demise was instantaneous; all his scheming ultimately came to naught.

Instead, it gave Xu Changjun a stroke of good fortune.

Zhou Jinyu began cultivating the Sword Embryo Sacrifice God Technique even earlier. He spread evil methods, seized the foundations of others' cultivation, and even went so far as to become a demon.

However, in the end, the entire condensed demonic embryo was devoured by Xu Changjun, who used it to evolve into the Six Thunder Divine Weapons, thus gaining a huge advantage.

But what truly broke his mental defenses was the god that the sword embryo worshipped after Xu Changjun seized the Dao foundation of the Three Missing Daoists. It was magnificent and grand, practically a righteous god worshipped in a temple.

The sword spirit he transformed into exhibited extreme aggression, was permeated with demonic energy, and led people astray, turning him, a dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator, into something neither human nor ghost.

This huge gap is what caused Zhou Jinyu's mental defenses to crumble.

To him, both were practicing evil arts, but the final results were worlds apart, plunging him into deep resentment. This was the root cause of his intense killing intent towards Xu Changjun.

Xu Changjun was also very clear about this, and could even vaguely guess the reason. Even though it devoured Zhou Jinyu's demonic avatar, the god worshipped in the sword avatar did not show any intention of breaking free from control. It even evolved into a three-headed, six-armed avatar wielding a divine weapon of thunder and lightning. The fundamental reason was still the Gengjin divine thunder.

"Perhaps it's because the Nine Heavens Thunder Vine and my true form are intricately connected!"

Xu Changjun guessed the answer, after all, in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, his clone was the Nine Heavens Thunder Vine, which reached the heavens and the earth and emitted countless golden lightning bolts.

Regardless, the improvement of the deity worshipped in the ritual of the Demon-Slaying Thunder Sword is undoubtedly a good thing for Xu Changjun, allowing him to further enhance his strength and unleash power far exceeding that of before.

Xu Changjun then opened the storage bag he had obtained from Zhou Jinyu.

Besides the thirty-six mid-grade spirit stones and three thousand low-grade spirit stones, there were also some porcelain bottles containing pills. What made Xu Changjun happiest was obtaining two jade slips.

"I never imagined that my first time opening a bag would result in winning the grand prize."

Xu Changjun was overjoyed. The two jade slips contained the "Scripture of Longevity of the Natal Spiritual Root" and the "Spiritual Wood Sword Embryo Method," respectively. These were the secret manuals of the Fenghuang Sect, and only the sect's high-ranking members and a few true disciples were qualified to cultivate them.

Only someone like Zhou Jinyu, a deputy sect leader, could carry both of them with him.

Moreover, the jade slip was brand new, so it was definitely not something that this high-ranking member of the Fenghuang Sect cultivated himself, but rather something that he specially engraved to pass on to his disciples.

Xu Changyun was well aware of the importance of these two manuals.

It might be just icing on the cake for others, but for Xu Changjun, it was even more important than the Dao-Seizing Sword Embryo, and it was what he desired most at the moment.

Cultivating spirit wood is a unique secret technique of the Fenghuang Sect. Spirit wood cultivated by the Fenghuang Sect, regardless of size or material, surpasses spirit wood of the same age. Even when forged into flying swords, its power is greatly enhanced.

"The Spirit Wood Sword Embryo Technique can nurture a spirit wood flying sword, allowing the bloodline to connect with the spirit and the sword to become one with the person. The Longevity Scripture of the Natal Spirit Root can refine a wood spirit root into the body. Perhaps I can borrow the Nine Heavens Thunder God Vine to bring back a piece of the Primordial Vine to cultivate in the present world, which is not impossible..."

"The solution might lie in these two books on secretarial matters."

These two jade slips are highly practical for Xu Changjun, as they can quickly increase his foundation and strength, which is why he is so excited.

After calming down, Xu Changjun stopped dwelling on it, composed himself, and embarked on his journey.

……

After spending half a month, Xu Changjun arrived at the magnificent Canglan River and Longyin Ferry. Looking into the distance, it resembled a silver ribbon drifting into the distance, or a giant dragon winding and twisting, giving people a magnificent and awe-inspiring feeling.

The Canglan River, as the largest river flowing through Yundong Lake, is the main channel connecting Yonglan Prefecture, which greatly promoted trade between Yundong Lake and Yonglan Prefecture.

Xu Changjun planned to train, so naturally he left Yundong Lake to see a wider world and find an opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

When he arrived at the dock, the entire dock was bustling with noise and activity, with large ships coming and going, carrying pedestrians and goods.

"What a huge ship?!"

Xu Changjun gazed at the enormous dragon-horned ship before him. Its scale was so grand that it resembled a true dragon, no less impressive than the aircraft carriers of his previous life.

The Canglan River has been flowing for thousands of years. Unlike ordinary rivers, it is like a roaring, angry dragon. The river is wide, like an inland sea. Ordinary small boats cannot navigate it and will fall apart in no time. Only the spirit boats of the cultivation world can forcibly cross the river and go downstream.

Moreover, the river is teeming with strange and magical fish, and even dragons, which can stir up storms and create turbulent waves. Only giant ships can withstand the strong winds and waves.

The ship before us is made of special metal, like a steel behemoth. Its interior is made of spirit wood as its backbone, and it is crafted using unique methods from the cultivation world. It is covered with spirit-gathering arrays, defensive arrays, and other array patterns, which gives this seemingly huge ship an extremely fast speed, even surpassing that of steam power.

Moreover, this giant ship is not a single vessel, but a mass-produced one called the Moon Spring Great Ship. It is a special industry created by the Moon Spring Clan and has become one of their clan's main sources of income.

"Isn't it spectacular!"

Just then, a voice rang out from afar. Xu Changjun nodded slightly and turned to look.

He had just noticed that someone was watching him. Although they were well hidden, they could not escape his senses and he still discovered them.

However, the other party's observation was more of an observation and did not contain any malicious intent.

Therefore, Xu Changjun ignored him. Only when he saw the man speak did he slowly turn his head and ask.

"Who are you? And what brings you following me?!"

His cultivation level is now different, especially after killing Zhou Jinyu, a Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivator, and devouring his demonic embryo, his strength has increased terrifyingly, and naturally he has a completely different demeanor.

So the moment he opened his mouth, his calm voice contained an invisible pressure that fell directly on the other person.
