Han Clan Immortals: I have a hundredfold energy-gathering bottle

Han Jieliu's speed in riding the wind alone was even faster than when he was driving the Swift Green Boat.

He barely rested, and after three days of traveling by air, he finally approached the Han family's territory and saw the Jianzhu Mountain in the distance.

Although I came from a previous life, my values ​​were already set, and my personality has always been indifferent and easygoing.

But transmigrating means inheriting everything from the original body, including the innate affinity for the family inherent in this body.

After returning to the Han family, seeing the family atmosphere of generation after generation and the close bond of blood, he had some insights and experienced something different.

With these two factors combined, Han Jieliu changed his mindset and hoped that the Han family could continue to prosper.

Therefore, upon hearing the news of the tragedy at his home, Han Jieliu did not choose to run away immediately.

Instead, he decided to do what the elders should do, risking returning to the clan to prepare for stabilizing the situation.

Han Jieliu suppressed his pent-up emotions. The air was filled with the scent of blood, though faint, he could still detect it.

Han Jieliu stood in the air, looking down at the spirit fields below, which had been ravaged by the beast tide and were now in complete disarray.

And the mortals below, moving like ants and carrying the corpses of those who perished in the beast tide, did not look well.

"According to our clan's calendar, the beast tide occurs once every fifty years, and only twenty years have passed so far."

"My family had just started to prosper, with the addition of two Qi cultivators, Jieyu and I, when suddenly we were attacked by a beast tide... How could this be so strange?"

After letting his mind wander, Han Jie drifted down and picked up a single ear of spiritual rice from the ground.

Besides the spiritual bamboo industry on the mountain, their family also has many spiritual fields at the East Entrance and Jiehu Road, which are cultivated by many Nascent Soul cultivators.

The cultivators who planted this spiritual rice were mostly former vassals of the family and had returned to the Han family, or wandering cultivators who came here seeking protection and made a living by paying land rent.

Among them, the eastern entrance of Dingshan Hall has the most spiritual fields, which are fertile fields enclosed by reclaiming mountains and forests, accounting for half of the family's spiritual fields.

However, Dongkou was the most severely damaged because it was close to Mengtan Mountain.

The plants in the field were scattered all over the ground, attracting birds from the sky to come down and peck at them.

"After being disrupted by the beast tide, I'm afraid only three or four out of ten of the spirit rice we planted this year will survive. We'll have to find another way to pay our salaries."

Han Jieliu abandoned the ear of spirit rice and, adopting the mindset of a head of household, began to estimate the loss of the spirit field.

The quantity of this sacred rice is one of the necessary indicators for the tribute paid by various families in Linjiang County to their ancestors, and this must be done every five years at Leijun City.

"Huh~"

Not long after Han Jie went missing, his aura at the Qi Refining Realm was detected.

In a distant mortal village, a cultivator flew over and, upon seeing Han Jieliu's face clearly, respectfully greeted him.

"Elder Han Jieliu has returned. I am here to guard this place on the orders of Elder Chiting."

The newcomer was called Han Shediao. He was dressed in a beast-patterned robe, was tall and strong, and had a sharp glint in his eyes.

This person was originally a hunter in the mountains, who was led onto the path of immortality after discovering a spiritual aperture.

His cultivation progressed quite quickly, reaching the late stage of embryonic breathing. Later, he swallowed a stream of mixed energy, which led to his current cultivation level.

Because he had commanded the clan's soldiers for many years and made great contributions, he was granted the surname Han by the Han family and held a certain position in the family. Therefore, he knew about Han Jieliu's return from the clan.

"Well then, tell me about the beast tide."

Upon hearing Han Jieliu's words...

Han Shediao cupped his hands, looked at the mountains to the east, and said in a heavy tone.

"A few days ago, our home was suddenly attacked by beasts, which caused the Dingshan Hall to be destroyed, Elder Chijun to be injured, and several demons to break in."

"Elder Chiting and Elder Jieyu rushed to Dingshan Hall first and rescued Elder Chijun."

"I and several other Qi cultivators from my family were in town at the time, facing off against two large insects at the early stage of Qi Refining. It was a very dangerous situation."

"Fortunately, the patriarch emerged from seclusion, raised his sword and charged forward. A long and broad sword aura burst forth, causing the leading mid-stage demon to suffer repeated pains and turn to flee."

"Patriarch Han casually used two sword energies to eliminate the giant worm below, then took his sword and chased after it to kill the monster. It has not yet returned to the clan."

Upon hearing this, Han Jieliu was somewhat surprised and asked again.

"Are you sure you're seeing correctly? Are you sure it's sword energy?"

Han Shediao cupped his hands and nodded.

"Yes, Elder, although my cultivation is low and my vision is limited, I know that the sharp and aggressive sword moves in the clan leader's hands can only be sword energy."

There are only four realms of swordsmanship in this world.

These are sword energy, sword essence, sword momentum, and sword intent.

This level of swordsmanship has nothing to do with a cultivator's cultivation level; only by gaining insights into the swordsmanship can one advance further.

Once the artistic conception is reached and comprehension is achieved, some Qi Refining cultivators can even unleash sword energy.

Without understanding this principle, even if one reaches the Foundation Establishment or Purple Mansion stages, one might not even grasp the meaning of sword energy.

Ancient sword cultivators also have a way of writing poetry.

The form must be derived from the inner metal, and the sharpness must be derived from the intention.

"So, does this mean Han Jinwei has already cultivated sword energy?"

A sense of confusion arose in Han Jieliu's mind.

He had seen cultivators in the sect who could cultivate sword energy, and the impression he had of them was profound.

Such sword cultivators possess extraordinary combat power, almost invincible among their peers.

That senior brother, who had just entered the mid-stage of Qi Refining, defeated his opponent, who had been immersed in the sixth level of Qi Refining for a long time, with a few sword strikes.

Xue Yinbai of Zheng Qingfeng was in the same situation at the time.

Because sword cultivators are too powerful, once they achieve enlightenment, they can almost change the entire sect's structure. That's why other peaks have tried every means to prevent them from breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Although Han Jieliu wields the Feiqing Sword, it's only because he's comfortable with sword-type magical weapons; he can use them for both control and combat. He hasn't really studied swordsmanship.

Even the "Central Gorge Intercepting Sword Technique" that I exchanged from the library is only roughly learned and not fully understood.

Han Jieliu quickly shook his head, denying it.

"It shouldn't be. I've seen the only sword manual in the house—'Xiao Lu Tong Qing Sword Manual'—and it's not very sophisticated."

"If Han Jinwei can cultivate sword qi with this, with his fifth level of Qi Refining and talent, as long as Yuan Yingtuan does not break through to the late stage of Qi Refining, the other two families in Nanling should be afraid of my Han family."

He paused for a moment, then thought of the contents of Han Jieyu's letter requesting aid.

"The letter mentioned the sword left behind by Patriarch Gonghe. Could that sword energy be related to it? Is it the trump card that Patriarch Gonghe left for his descendants...?"

Since its founding, the family has produced many cultivators at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and has accumulated some experience.

After returning to the Han family, Han Jieliu quickly went into seclusion to cultivate, and did not discuss the family's resources with Han Jinwei in order to break through to the third level of Qi Refining.

Thinking about it now is pointless; we'll only know for sure when Han Jinwei returns.

Where are the family's spiritual practitioners now?

Han Jieliu asked Han Shediao.

"Elder, Elder Chijun is still recovering from his injuries, and Elder Chiting is stationed in the formation on the top of Jianzhu Mountain, using the formation to patrol the surrounding area."

"Elder Han Jieyu has already gone down to the villages and towns, and is taking stock of the losses and organizing reconstruction."

Han Jieliu nodded and left quickly, deciding to go up the mountain first to see Han Chiting.
