The Immortal Clan was established starting with the entry on the Dao of the Gou.

Jiang Yun had many mid-grade spirit stones.

These spirit stones can buy many rare and precious materials and magical artifacts.

If you want to buy spirit wood, that will be even easier.

However, the mid-grade spirit stones in Jiang Yun's possession are commonly used by Foundation Establishment cultivators.

He's only at the Qi Refining stage and has no powerful backing.

It shouldn't be taken out and used lightly.

Because it could easily lead to death.

On the other hand, Jiang Yun really didn't know where to buy spirit wood.

Should we go directly to visit the three major immortal sects?

"Besides the three major immortal sects, the Great Yu also has many smaller sects and cultivation families."

"With so many cultivators, there must be trade dealings; there should be a market there."

Jiang Yun pondered in secret.

There must be a market for cultivators.

However, he was out of touch with the outside world and, being a rogue cultivator, had never had any contact with other cultivators, so he had no idea where the market was located.

"Once I reach the fifth level of Qi Refining, I will take De Xian with me and pretend to be a mortal to seek immortality and inquire about it."

Jiang Yun quickly came up with an idea.

Seeking immortality and enlightenment, we took Jiang Dexian out for a stroll to find out the location of the market.

He put the spirit-gathering array aside for the time being.

The art of alchemy using formations, talismans, and other magical techniques.

Simply understanding it is useless; you have to put it into practice.

When we obtain the spirit wood in the future, we will then work on this spirit-gathering array.

Six months later.

September 9th, the thirteenth year of the Tianqi reign.

Chen Shi (7-9 AM).

The sun rises in the east.

Jiang Yun stopped cultivating, walked out of the room into the courtyard, and let out a pleasant sigh.

"Dad, get up!" Jiang Deyue was trimming the flowers and plants in the yard. "Lately, my eldest brother has become a lazybones too. He doesn't get up until the sun is high in the sky!"

"It's alright, he's not doing farm work these days, let him sleep in."

Jiang Yun laughed.

He knew that Jiang Dexian was probably cultivating in her room, not sleeping in.

"Husband, breakfast is ready. Call the children to eat."

A moment later, Ling'er came out of the kitchen.

She gets up before dawn every day to cook.

Sometimes I would ask Jiang Deyue for help.

"Okay."

Jiang Yun responded and called the children to eat.

After breakfast.

Fang Yu and Luo Susu brought their son to Jiang Yun's house.

"Brother-in-law, sister."

When it's not busy with farming.

Fang Yu and Luo Susu would then bring Fang Minglong over so that he could study and learn to read and write with Jiang Yun's children.

They lived in poverty their whole lives.

I don't want my son to be poor in the future.

Let Fang Minglong study and learn to read and write with Jiang Deping and Jiang De'an; perhaps he will have a chance to change his fate in the future.

"Minglong, have you memorized all the characters I taught you yesterday?"

Jiang Yun teased Fang Minglong.

"I've got it."

Fang Minglong nodded.

Upon seeing Jiang De'an, they immediately ran over to play.

This kid often fights and quarrels with Jiang De'an.

But they made up the next day.

After letting Fang Minglong, Jiang Defan, Jiang Deping, and Jiang De'an play for a while, Jiang Yun began to teach them to read.

Half an hour later.

Exclamations of surprise came from outside.

"An immortal! It's an immortal!"

"It's so bright! What do the words on the token say?"

"What happened? Are immortals fighting?"

Jiang Yun and Ling'er have keen hearing.

They exchanged a glance and then went outside.

The neighbors stood outside, looking up at the sky, and exclaimed in surprise.

Jiang Yun and Ling'er looked up at the sky.

In the direction of Qingshan Lake, a huge token appeared in the sky at some unknown time, with the character "Chu" engraved on it.

The character "楚" looks even more dazzling than the sun.

"The Chu family hereby issues a decree: all Foundation Establishment cultivators are to proceed to the Great Chu Imperial Palace to await orders. Anyone who disobeys will be executed without mercy."

Jiang Yun and Ling'er only glanced at the token.

A majestic voice suddenly rang in my mind.

"My husband, did you hear that?"

Ling'er asked in a low voice.

"I heard it. Only cultivators can hear it." Jiang Yun looked at the token in the sky and realized the truth.

This is a decree.

A cultivator can glean information from it with a single glance.

Ordinary people, however, had no idea what had happened.

"The Chu family...all Foundation Establishment cultivators are at your command, or they will be killed without mercy, this..."

Jiang Yun was deeply shocked.

This Chu family.

They've got some skill.

And they were also very arrogant.

……

at the same time.

The leaders of the three major immortal sects of the Great Yu Dynasty ended their seclusion immediately.

"The Chu family has issued a decree... Alas, I fear it will be another bloody battle."

The leaders of the three major immortal sects all sighed.

The disciples in the sect all looked shocked.

"The Chu family has issued an order, what has happened?"

"I've just joined the sect. Are there any senior brothers or sisters who can tell me about the background of this Chu family?"

"You're like a frog in a well; what I'm about to tell you will scare you to death!"

……

On the other side, the Imperial Palace of the Great Yu Dynasty.

A Chu family token also hung in the sky above the imperial city.

Emperor Tianqi stood before the main hall, looking up at the token.

From deep within the palace, an aged voice echoed.

"Qi'er, the war in Jingguo ends here."

Upon hearing this voice, Emperor Tianqi immediately bowed to the void and respectfully said, "Yes, Third Ancestor."

Almost at the same time.

Jingguo.

In the imperial city of Jingguo, a token from the Chu family also hangs.

This token left the current Emperor Yongtai of Jingguo bewildered as to what had happened.

He has no spiritual roots, does not need to cultivate, and has plenty of time to handle state affairs.

That's how he became emperor.

A moment later, an elderly man with white hair suddenly appeared beside him.

"grandfather."

When Emperor Yongtai saw this man, he immediately paid his respects.

"Withdraw the troops; the war in Dayu has ended."

His grandfather left behind a sentence, and the next moment he turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared.

"Withdrawing troops at this point... sigh... never mind!"

Emperor Yongtai gazed at the token hanging in the air and sighed deeply.

……

Dayu, Huaizhou.

Qingshan Village, Yongning County.

Jiang Yun and Ling'er were both staring blankly at the Chu family token.

The Chu family is really too powerful.

Could it be that he could command thousands of nations?

"Father, where is the State of Chu?"

Jiang Dexian then came out of the house.

He also saw the token and obtained the information from it.

"I don't know." Jiang Yun shook his head. "Da Yu is bordered by Jing to the south and Qi to the east. Chu might be to the west or north of Da Yu."

Jiang Yun spent the first half of his life as a tenant farmer in Qingshan Village.

All he knew was hearsay.

Jiang Yun really didn't know what other countries existed besides the Great Yu.

"Something big is bound to happen," Jiang Dexian sighed. "Luckily, no one in our family has reached the Foundation Establishment stage."

"Don't you want to establish your foundation as soon as possible and go out to take a look?"

Jiang Yun was greatly surprised to hear Jiang Dexian say this.

A boy of fifteen or sixteen years old.

If one enters the immortal sect from the mortal realm to cultivate.

Which one of them wasn't full of vigor and ambition?

"Although we don't know the background of this Chu family, conscripting Foundation Establishment cultivators can't be anything good. If I were to reach Foundation Establishment, I'd run for my life!"

Jiang Dexian hit the nail on the head.

"De Xian is right," Ling'er praised. "If there were good things, why would the Chu family think of others? I'm afraid the Chu family is fighting with some force and needs manpower."

Jiang Yun nodded and fell into deep thought.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators have all been summoned by the Chu family, making it relatively safer for them to go out.

It's a good opportunity to take Jiang Dexian out for a walk.

I'll look for a market town and make contact with other monks.

"Dexian, in a few days your father will take you to Qingshan Lake for a stroll."
