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

"Senior brother, don't worry. With the three of us working together, even if the opponent is Shangguan Shuo, the city lord of Canglin City of Lingxu Sect, he will die and perish," a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator said.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with what he said.

These three are all late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, and are among the best in the Qingyun Sect.

He was in no way inferior to the sword cultivator Lu Yuanfeng.

He is also a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator belonging to the third tier among the three major sects.

Within the Qingyun Sect, there are no combat experts of the same caliber as Shangguan Shuo of the Lingxu Sect or Ku Hong of the Biluo Valley. Although Lu Chuanxuan is the current senior disciple of the inner sect, his strength is somewhat lacking.

However, there are many third-tier great cultivators like Lu Yuanfeng.

People like the Seven Masters of Qingyun are all such individuals.

The reason for this situation is that the Qingyun Sect is controlled by scions of powerful families.

Even the most talented cultivators at the lower levels cannot break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

People like Lin Yanyi possess astonishing comprehension, created their own cultivation methods, and comprehended the true meaning of the Five Elements in the "Wood Generates Fire" and "Water Generates Wood" schools during the Qi Refining stage.

Even someone like this wouldn't be granted a Foundation Establishment Pill by the Qingyun Sect. No matter how high their talent or comprehension, they can't establish their foundation without a Foundation Establishment Pill.

This resulted in the fact that, although the scions of the three great families of Qingyun Sect had the resources to reach the late stage of Foundation Establishment, they were still limited in their ability to achieve this stage.

However, there was not a single person with high combat power and unparalleled talent.

If Qingyun Sect hadn't squandered its past resources, it would have been wiped out long ago.

This Foundation Establishment cultivator thought that the person who killed Lu Yuanfeng was at most of the strength of Shangguan Shuo, and the three of them could easily handle him.

They could never have imagined that Jiang Shi, at this moment, had already surpassed Shangguan Shuo in strength.

Moreover, he is still cultivating, creating his own techniques, and his strength is constantly increasing.

Just as the three were having their private conversation, a servant knocked on the door to report.

"Uncle-Master, Uncle-Master Lu Chuanyu has come to pay his respects."

"Please let him in," Lu Chuanqi said immediately.

Lu Chuanyu is also of the "Chuan" generation, and is of the same generation as him.

Although they are both members of the Lu family and of the same generation, their relationship is actually just average.

This is because the two were rivals at the same time.

They fought many battles back then to compete for resources.

Not all peers are relatives; many brothers have turned against each other over cultivation resources.

"What are you doing here!" Lu Chuanqi said rudely.

"Did your senior brother send you to stop me?"

Lu Chuanqi knew that the person opposite him, Lu Chuanyu, was a confidant of the senior disciple of the inner sect.

He thought the man had learned that the three of them were going out to seek revenge and had come to stop them.

"Junior brother, you've misunderstood," Lu Chuanyu said with a smile.

"My senior brother sent me to deliver this to you."

After Lu Chuanyu finished speaking, he stopped keeping him in suspense and flipped his hand, revealing two top-grade magic artifacts, the Mountain and Sea Banners, in his hand.

Two top-grade magic artifacts, the Mountain and Sea Banners, floated up and flew towards Lu Chuanqi under his control.

"This is the Mountain and Sea Flag, a top-grade magic artifact." Lu Chuanqi naturally recognized this treasure.

The Mountain and Sea Flag, a top-grade magical artifact, is a famous treasure of the Lu family.

"My senior brother asked me to tell you that although he is bound by Sect Leader Lu's orders and cannot come to help you in person, he believes that these two high-grade magic artifacts, the Mountain and Sea Banners, can lend you a hand," Lu Chuanyu said.

"Thank you, Senior Brother, for bestowing these treasures upon me." Lu Chuanqi accepted the two top-grade magic artifacts, the Mountain and Sea Banners, with great surprise.

With this treasure, I'll be more confident in going out to seek revenge.

Seeing that Lu Chuanqi had accepted the gift, Lu Chuanyu did not linger and turned to leave.

"Now that my mission is complete, I won't stay any longer. It's time to go back and report to my senior brother."

Lu Chuanyu left decisively. He knew that his relationship with Lu Chuanqi was not good, so he naturally wouldn't stay and try to win Lu Chuanqi's favor.

After he left, Lu Chuanqi distributed the two top-grade magic artifacts, the Mountain and Sea Banners, to the two Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.

"You may accept this Mountain and Sea Flag."

The two Foundation Establishment stage cultivators didn't stand on ceremony. After all, they were about to fight to the death, and having a life-saving magic artifact would provide an extra layer of protection.

Once the three Foundation Establishment stage cultivators were fully prepared, they set off.

Their first priority is to investigate this river.

Three Foundation Establishment stage cultivators flew along the riverbank, investigating.

Little did they know that Jiang Shi had already infiltrated the bottom of the river.

Unless you're a Golden Core cultivator, no one can find him.

At this moment, Jiang Yu was lost in thought at the bottom of the river.

At this time, three days had passed since Li Jiangshi went into seclusion.

"I wonder how Master's cultivation is going?" Jiang Yu thought listlessly, resting his chin on his hand.

"Yu'er, hurry up and cultivate." Old Man Jiang walked over and said to Jiang Yu.

"When Young Master Jiang is not here, you should make the most of your time to cultivate and not waste a single second. Otherwise, when your master returns from seclusion, he will be very disappointed if your cultivation has not improved at all."

"Yes, Grandpa. I'll seize the time to cultivate right away." Upon hearing Old Man Jiang's words, Jiang Yu jumped up and hurried off to cultivate.

She really didn't want to disappoint her master.

Having lost her parents at a young age and raised by her grandfather, she lacks a sense of security.

Her master saved her and her grandfather in the most critical moment, and was the greatest benefactor of her family.

Therefore, she wanted to cultivate herself diligently so that she could become a useful person to her master in the future.

In the future, I can always stay by my master's side.

Jiang Yu sat cross-legged at the bow of the boat, which was his master's favorite place to sit.

Xihe Stone radiated a spring-like light, and Jiang Yu diligently cultivated himself under this light.

Below the river, on the other side.

After three days of cultivation, Jiang Shi's kidneys became much stronger, and many impurities were eliminated.

Jiang Shi felt his body relax a bit.

This simply makes the kidneys healthier.

It's still far from being a fully-fledged cultivation technique.

"It seems I need to think of another way," Jiang Shi thought to himself.

Jiang Shi originally thought that he could create a method to refine the kidneys by relying on the true essence of Gui water.

But now it seems I was being too simplistic.

"How can I create a water-based body-refining technique?" Jiang Shi wondered to himself.

He began to think hard, and a week passed in a row.

On that very day, Jiang Shi suddenly had an idea.

"I almost forgot the true meaning of 'Metal Generates Water'." Jiang Shi suddenly remembered the true meaning of the Five Elements he had learned some time ago.

The true meaning of "Gold generates Water" can serve as a catalyst for the true essence of Gui Water.

This allows the kidneys to better absorb the essence of Gui water, thus strengthening them.

Jiang Shi channeled his metal-based magic power, which began to transform into a large amount of water-based magic power, and started flowing into his kidneys.

At the same time, this magical power was also mixed with the blood energy generated by the phantom of the Crimson Blood Kui Bull.

Jiang Shi decided to take a gamble and strengthen his kidneys in one fell swoop.

As long as you have blood and energy, even if you lose a bet, it won't be a problem at all.
