Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Chapter 125: Chapter 111: Meeting with Zhao Li from Dashun Prefecture!_2

Translator: 549690339

Liu Jie was brimming with pride at this moment.

Hearing the word “territory”, Jiang Yuan understood why there was an irreconcilable conflict between the Royal Family of the Qianyuan Kingdom and the Sects, which had aggravated over the years.

A Sect is indeed a kingdom within a Kingdom.

Under such circumstances, no dynasty could tolerate the existence of these Sects.

Furthermore, Sects of the level of the Supreme Mystery Sect existed in over a dozen sizes, scattered across various locations in the territories of the Qianyuan imperial family.

Each power was equivalent to a kingdom within another Kingdom.

It effectively turned the territory of the Qianyuan Kingdom porous, no longer intact.

So, it made sense for the incident where the Qianyuan Kingdom demolished the monasteries and trampled the sects with horses three years later to happen.

Any established dynasty would not tolerate the continued existence of such practices by the various major Sects.

As he was considering these matters, the three of them, on the back of the blue falcon, had already arrived above the Rising Sun Peak.

The blue falcon beneath their feet was also very excited, having flown continuously for a day and a night.

Even the blue falcon, known for its endurance and speed, was somewhat fatigued.

It was excited to be able to rest a bit upon arriving at its destination.

“Brother Jiang, they have arrived!” Liu Jie said excitedly.

Being successful in meeting the disciple of the Sunset Sect meant that they were only one step away from the ancient cave mansion.

The merging of the yin and yang jade pendant represented their possession of the key to open the ancient cave mansion’s treasury.

Thinking about being able to unlock the ancient cave mansion soon, he was understandably filled with excitement.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuan had already clearly seen the faces and clothing of the three people below.

The three of them were all wearing red and black robes, a sign of the Sunset Sect, characterized by the setting sun embroidered on the chest.

It further confirmed their identities.

They were the three true disciples of the Sunset Sect.

However, when he saw their faces, Jiang Yuan was somewhat surprised.

Because one of them had once made a deep impression on him.

Zhao Li from Dashun Prefecture.

The heaven genius who he once felt was unattainable.

Due to his arrival, Li Hong and his Senior Brother immediately left him behind and greeted Zhao Li with a smile, while they treated Jiang Yuan with indifference.

It was a harsh reality, yet it was also expected.

Back then, he was only at the fourth level of Body Forging Realm, while Zhao Li was just a step away from transcending worldliness, reaching the very limit of mortal capabilities.

Both were of the same age.

The gap between the two of them was insurmountable.

Subsequently, Zhao Li’s status panel suddenly appeared before his eyes.

[Name]: Zhao Li

[Realm]: Third Level of Meridian Opening Realm

[Innate Fate]: Born Spirit Body (Blue) Body of Wood (Green) Energetic (White) Martial Arts Family (White)

Indeed, quite impressive, Jiang Yuan thought in his heart.

If not compared with himself, Zhao Li could be considered a full-fledged genius.

In just over a year, he had progressed through three realms.

At that point, the three blue falcons slowly descended.

One of the men below shouted, “Are you the Taoist Friends from the Supreme Mystery Sect, who have come as agreed?”

Liu Jie also shouted back, “Exactly!”

Zhao Li looked up at the person above him, his expression suddenly changed, and he said in surprise, “It’s him!”

“How? Does Junior Brother Zhao recognize them?”

Zhao Li nodded gently, “I met the youngest man once in a remote county town. At the time, he was only at the fourth level of Body Forging Realm.”

He shook his head, “I didn’t expect him to become a member of the Supreme Mystery Sect. I underestimated him.”

While they were conversing, Jiang Yuan and the others leaped off the back of the falcons.

They gently landed on the ground, a few dozen feet away from Zhao Li and the others.

This distance was safe.

If someone suddenly made a move, they would have plenty of time to react.

Liu Jie greeted with a bow, “Greetings to the three Daoist Brothers. Who among you is the leader? Who has the other half of the Yin-Yang jade pendant?”

Returning to his senses, Zhao Li also greeted with a bow, “I am the owner of the Yang jade pendant. These two are my Elder Brothers in the Sect.”

Liu Jie nodded, pointed at Liu Rushi and said, “This is my Senior Sister!”

Then he pointed at Jiang Yuan and said, “This is my Junior Brother. Both of them will be journeying with us.”

Zhao Li appeared calm and composed, “My two senior brothers will also accompany me.”

He then took out a white jade pendant from his body and displayed it in front of everyone.

“This is the token I hold!”

Liu Jie too took out his and instantly, the two jade pendants seemed to attract each other, intending to merge into one.

Seeing these two pendants that indeed matched, the two individuals instantly eased up.

By this time, Jiang Yuan’s gaze had already swept over the three of them, taking note of their cultivation realms.

Zhao Li was at the third level of the Meridian Opening Realm, and the other two were both at the fifth level of this realm.

Their status panels were mediocre, only noting them as cultivators with decent talent, hardly worthy of special attention.

“Am I overthinking?” Jiang Yuan mused internally.

Having been impacted by the knowledge explosion of his previous life,

He always suspected that such an event might lead to loot snatching and killing incidents before leaving his home.

After all, this is a world where individual power precedes everything, and there are no rules restricting behavior in the wilderness.

In such a situation, those who genuinely believe in the innate goodness of people are truly naive.

In his previous life, under such intense pressures, countless people risked their lives for petty wealth.

How much more so in a world possessing transcendent power?

Breaking through cultivation realms elevates life essence and significantly increases lifespan.

How terrifying could personal desires under such circumstances be!

How many could resist the allure of an ancient cave mansion?

As such, thinking of these things, Jiang Yuan had made countless preparations for his journey.

He does not believe that in a world without rules and laws, relying merely on one’s conscience, they could maintain their moral boundaries.

It’s impossible, also against human nature.

Even if there are, they are a minority.

The power of cultivators attributes to the individual.

The increase in capabilities also signifies a rise in status, an elevation of life level, and an increase in lifespan.

The temptation in between all of these is frightening!

Compared with wealth, the gap is immeasurable.

People will always be tempted to evil, that’s normal.

Since setting on the path of cultivation, Jiang Yuan’s aim was clear.

To achieve freedom, act at will, to be dictated by the heart, and for no one to override his will.

But all of these depend on personal power.

So since he has come to this world, he intends to see the peak of the cultivation path.

Especially with the auxiliary of the Fate panel, his resolve for this goal has solidified.

Because he had seen hope, the hope to change fate against the heavens.

Meanwhile, the two individuals beside Zhao Li were secretly probing Jiang Yuan and his two companions.

First, they briefly scanned Jiang Yuan, then no longer paid him any attention.

Jiang Yuan, who appeared to be less than twenty, was unlikely to pose a significant threat to them.

Especially after hearing what Zhao Li had previously said, it made them feel that the three of them were quite naive.

Clearly, Jiang Yuan was brought out by the leading man to widen his horizons.

As Zhao Li had stated, at that time, he was just in the fourth level of the Body Forging Realm.

Even now, at most, he had just barely stepped into the Transcending Realm, barely scratching the first level of the Meridian Opening Realm.

Under these circumstances, it was clear that the three were rookies venturing out for experience.

Even if they didn’t die at their hands today, later on, they were destined to die at the hands of righteous or evil cultivators.

With these thoughts, each of them contained no guilt whatsoever.

They then surreptitiously looked at Liu Rushi and Liu Jie, and after doing so,

they immediately thought, Harmless as person or animal!

A doubt arose in their hearts, wondering if they had overreacted.

These three inexperienced group of people, they could have easily dealt with on their own.

Why was there a need to use secret techniques and have a senior brother surreptitiously follow?

A hint of regret began to creep into their hearts; they should not have been so cautious.

They alone were more than enough.

That way, they would also have obtained more resources.
