Immortality and cultivation: Heaven rewards diligence, and success is inevitable.

Meanwhile, on the fishing boat, Old Jiang felt heartbroken seeing his granddaughter in this state.

However, he did not go to stop her. Since his granddaughter had already embarked on the path of cultivation, he had to make changes.

His granddaughter has now become his apprentice. A teacher for a day is a father for life, and even if he were his own grandfather, he wouldn't have the right to stop his master's teaching.

Jiang Yu's parents were also cultivators, but they went out to gather herbs and never returned. I'm afraid they've met with great misfortune.

Therefore, Old Man Jiang did not allow Jiang Yu to embark on the path of cultivation. He allowed him to live a peaceful life as an ordinary mortal.

However, they later encountered a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, and the grandfather and grandson almost died on the spot.

Since that day, Old Man Jiang changed his mind. He made Jiang Yu become his disciple and work hard to cultivate, so that even if he died in the future, Jiang Yu would be able to protect himself.

He is now very old, and his granddaughter has to walk the rest of the road by herself.

With tears streaming down her face, Jiang Yu approached the flames.

As Jiang Yu approached the flames, he felt their intense heat.

This flame is different from ordinary flames; it seems to contain some kind of power that makes it grow stronger.

As time passed, the flame not only did not go out, but instead became even hotter.

Jiang Yu looked at the flame and gradually stopped crying, becoming quiet.

For a moment, she forgot about the three venomous snakes behind her, forgot the danger, and focused even more intently on the flames.

Seeing Jiang Yu's change, Jiang Shi quietly put the three venomous snakes back into the Thousand Serpent Banner, as they were no longer needed.

As Jiang Yu was intently observing the flame, the metal-type magic power within his body underwent a change and began to slowly rotate.

As the metal-elemental magic rotated, an exceptionally sharp aura of water-elemental energy emanated from it.

[To fully understand the true meaning of "Gold Generates Water".]

[Proficiency +100]

[Learning the true meaning of "Metal generates Water"]

[Metal generates Water: 100/500]

Finally, the moment Jiang Yu grasped the true meaning of "Gold Generates Water," Jiang Shi also learned it directly.

By this point, Jiang Shi had learned four of the Five Elements True Meanings: Metal generates Water, Water generates Wood, Wood generates Fire, and Fire generates Earth.

Only one more film is missing – "Tu Sheng Jin".

Jiang Shi felt that he would soon master the final essence of the Five Elements.

The five elements are mutually generating and interconnected. Having already mastered the other four, the true meaning of this last one will naturally come to be understood.

There's no need to go out of your way to learn it by stealing information anymore.

Jiang Shi waved his hand, extinguishing the flames in front of Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu snapped out of her daze and came to her senses.

As soon as she regained consciousness, she immediately felt the sharp, watery energy within her body.

Jiang Yu opened his arms, and water spirit energy emanated from his body, transforming into a large amount of water-based magic power that fell to the ground.

The ground was instantly riddled with craters by this powerful water-based magic.

Although Jiang Yu has only just begun to grasp the true meaning of "Gold Generates Water," she is practically invincible in battles against opponents of the same level.

Of course, this only applies if you don't encounter a disciple from a top-tier, powerful faction.

Those disciples already had a basic understanding of the Five Elements.

"Master, look! I've become so powerful!" Jiang Yu exclaimed excitedly.

They had completely forgotten about the venomous snakes from earlier.

"This is the true meaning of the Five Elements, specifically the 'Metal generates Water' principle," Jiang Shi said.

"The true meaning of 'Gold Generates Water' is amazing! Thank you, Master, for bestowing this teaching." Jiang Yu skipped over to Jiang Shi and said gratefully.

Jiang Shi originally planned to leave once he had learned the true meaning of "Gold Generates Water".

But seeing Jiang Yu in such a state, he couldn't bear to leave immediately.

After all, Jiang Yu's cultivation level is too low now, and Old Man Jiang is a person whose spiritual root has been severed.

If he were to leave now, it would likely be very soon for him and his grandson to perish.

Once you embark on the path of cultivation, you're no longer in control of your own destiny.

Jiang Yu was his first disciple, and Jiang Shi couldn't bear to watch her die like this.

He was not a demonic cultivator after all. In the past, he had no feelings for the Qingyun Sect because the disciples of the Qingyun Sect treated ordinary cultivators like servants.

He doesn't cultivate the path of ruthlessness, so he inevitably has feelings of compassion.

"Fine, I'll take you with me for a few more days," Jiang Shi thought to himself.

Having Jiang Yu with him wouldn't affect his cultivation, which is why Jiang Shi didn't just abandon her.

"Let's go." Jiang Shi said, walking towards the fishing boat, followed by a bouncy fisherman.

After the two boarded the ship, Jiang Yu continued to diligently cultivate under Jiang Shi's arrangement.

Jiang Shi sat cross-legged at the bow of the boat, and with a flick of his wrist, a silver sword pellet appeared in his palm.

Jiang Shi has not only been teaching Jiang Yu cultivation.

He continued to refine the silver sword pellet.

After a month of hard work, today, we are almost there, just a hair's breadth away from completely removing the sword energy mark left by Lu Yuanfeng.

Jiang Shi focused his mind into the sword pellet, and suddenly, a burst of sword energy shot out.

Jiang Shi neither dodged nor avoided; a golden shield of light blocked his way.

"Thump!" A sound of impact rang out.

The golden shield shattered instantly, but at the same time, the sword energy also shattered.

The last sword aura imprint lost its previous indomitable momentum and remained very weak, which is why Jiang Shi was able to block it with a golden shield.

"Great! Now it's time to leave my mark."

Jiang Shi thought to himself, and then he poured his mind and magic power into the silver sword pellet and began to refine it.

Jiang Shi's magical power and mental state were constantly being cleansed within the silver light sword pellet.

As time passed, Jiang Shi consumed twelve drops of magical liquid before finally refining a sword aura mark.

Furthermore, a faint sword heart appeared here within Jiang Shi's sea of ​​consciousness.

At this point, Jiang Shi officially became a sword cultivator.

Jiang Shi's mind stirred, and the silver sword pellet in his hand immediately changed, turning into a silver flying sword that floated up.

The silver flying sword exuded a chilling aura. Upon seeing this, Old Man Jiang and Jiang Yu on the boat both trembled in their hearts, as if they had seen something terrifying. They sensed that the sword's mere aura could kill them countless times.

"Congratulations, Master, on obtaining this priceless treasure," Jiang Yu said, offering his congratulations.

This was taught to me by Old Jiang.

"Haha, it is indeed a treasure, worth celebrating." Jiang Shi transformed the silver flying sword into a sword pellet and stored it in his sea of ​​consciousness.

This way, one can use their mind to refine the Silver Light Flying Sword at any time.

The mind and spirit are different from spiritual consciousness. They are usually used to refine magical artifacts and spiritual objects, or to draw talismans to communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

If the mind is damaged, the soul is also damaged. Therefore, ordinary Foundation Establishment stage cultivators would never allow their mind to leave their body.

If sword cultivators didn't need to use their mental energy to refine sword pills, Jiang Shi wouldn't have allowed his mind to leave his body.
