Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Chapter 357: Chapter 237: The Seed of Cause and Effect, Jiang Yuan’s Gift! (Asking for monthly votes, asking for subscriptions!)
Outside the room.

Jiang Yuan, hearing the rustling of clothes in his ears, involuntarily thought of the scene that had just transpired.

He couldn’t help but smile wistfully.

No matter how profound one’s cultivation is, human desires and emotions remain closely attached to one’s life.

Humans are still humans, how could they become emotionless and only pursue a lofty state of mind with cultivation?

But this isn’t bad either.

If cultivation led one to become emotionless, pursuing only a lofty state of mind.

An undying state achieved in such a way would be rather dull.

If one indeed lost all desires and pursuits, what difference would there be between living and dying?

Death, is but an eternal slumber from time immemorial.

Losing one’s emotions, is also the same as an eternal slumber.

As Jiang Yuan was immersed in deep thought.

Squeak!

The door slowly opened.

“Young Master!”

The soft voice of Shu Xiaoxiao rang out from behind him.

Like when Jiang Yuan first saw her at Yunyan Pavilion.

Jiang Yuan turned his head to find Shu Xiaoxiao neatly dressed, wearing a green dress.

It perfectly complemented the spring weather.

Having rushed out in haste, her hair was not neatly combed, but was simply pinned up with a wooden pin.

Her face still held a faint blush, and her gaze shied away from Jiang Yuan’s.

She bashfully buried her head into her chest.

Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but give a gentle smile.

Hearing Jiang Yuan’s soft laugh, she grew even more bashful and refused to look up.

“Let’s go!”

Jiang Yuan said.

“Oh!”

Shu Xiaoxiao asked softly, not asking where they were going, and hurried towards Jiang Yuan, following closely behind him.

Suddenly.

Thump!

Shu Xiaoxiao’s head bumped heavily against Jiang Yuan’s back, then with a backward tilt, she fell onto the ground.

Jiang Yuan turned his head to look at her and couldn’t help but chuckle.

Shu Xiaoxiao quickly got up and rubbed her forehead without daring to make a sound.

“By ‘let’s go’, I didn’t mean to walk!”

Jiang Yuan executed the technique of the Five Elements, and the two of them instantly sank into the earth.

“Young Master, where are we going?”

“Yunxiao City!”

The two of them sped through the earth, heading for Yunxiao City.

Two hours later.

They arrived at Yunxiao City.

The crowd on the street looked at the two who suddenly appeared. They did not show any surprise.

They merely gave them a few more glances because of their good looks.

Some of them couldn’t help but praise, “What a marvelous pair! I wonder which famous clan or faction sent these outstanding disciples out for their field training.”

“Don’t you know him?”

“Is he famous?”

“Haven’t you heard of the number one on the Heavenly Ranking?”

“I’ve heard of it! Isn’t it Zhou Qiu?”

Upon hearing this person’s reply, the previous person couldn’t help but fall silent.

Then they said, “Brother, how long has it been since you last left your home?”

“I’ve been in seclusion for a few months, why? Was Zhou Qiu’s number one spot taken away?”

“More than that, Zhou Qiu had long since perished! Killed by this man.”

“…”

The two of them walked onto the road.

“Young Master, many people seem to recognize you!”

Jiang Yuan casually said, “That’s normal. After my journey to Pearl Cave, I became the first in the Heavenly Ranking.”

“For those who are adventuring outside, how could they not check the Heavenly Ranking and recognize me?”

“Recognizing the people on the Heavenly Ranking, knowing who they absolutely must not offend, that’s a mandatory lesson for those traveling abroad!”

Shu Xiaoxiao thoughtfully nodded her head.

Jiang Yuan suddenly led her into a jewelry store.

“Young Master, why are we here?”

Shu Xiaoxiao looked puzzled.

Jiang Yuan just smiled.

His gaze swept over and he pointed at a jade pin shaped like a small sword, saying, “Help me wrap this up!”

The shop assistant immediately beamed and responded, “Yes, Young Master!”

Such a person who buys without asking about the price, he is obviously someone of extraordinary wealth.

Especially the fact that such a celestial beauty stands beside him further proves his uniqueness.

This young lady, in her eyes,

Has the leading charisma and appearance that she had ever seen, not at all inferior to those so-called celestial fairy goddesses in the rumours, and even surpassing them.

The fact that such a woman can openly follow this man shows a lot.

Among cultivators, what kind of woman is the most invincible to provoke?

That would be women of stunning beauty.

They can roam about because there must have been those whose minds are filled with lust that had their eyes on them.

But their safety can give answers to many questions.

The skeletons of those who perished at their hands must be countless.

Not to mention a beauty that causes even her to feel palpitations.

She hurriedly wrapped up the sword-shaped jade pin for Jiang Yuan.

“Young Master, it is priced at one hundred low-grade spiritual stones.”

Jiang Yuan nodded, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and he took out a middle-grade spiritual stone to give her.

This price, in his eyes, was very reasonable.

After all, the material used in this jade pin was extraordinary, and it perfectly matched Shu Xiaoxiao!

Jiang Yuan took the wrapped box and immediately opened it.

“Turn around!” Jiang Yuan said indifferent.

Shu Xiaoxiao covered her mouth, obediently turned her body and faced away, her back towards Jiang Yuan.

Her eyes were brimming with mist.

Jiang Yuan removed the wooden pin on her head and put it in his bag.

Then he picked up the sword-shaped jade pin in the jewelry box.

He took hold of Shu Xiaoxiao’s hair, twisted it twice, inserted the sword-shaped jade pin, and it was neatly tied up.

“Done!”

Jiang Yuan gave a smile.

On the day of their journey to Pearl Cave, he had felt guilty and had privately vowed.

She had been serving faithfully by his side for so long, he seemed to have never properly given her a gift.

Now that they had come to Yunxiao City, how could he not give her something.

After all, she had been following him for so long, serving him conscientiously.

He was absolved of many troubles and hardships in life because of her.

If she were a common maid, could she be so worry-free?

Would she be so dedicated and diligent?

“Young Master!” murmured Shu Xiaoxiao.

Tears flickered in her eyes.

Jiang Yuan laughed and patted her head.

“Why are you crying? It’s just a small gift!”

“Today is Xiaoxiao’s birthday, and it’s also the first birthday gift Xiaoxiao has received!”

She defiantly looked up, fighting back the tears in her eyes.

Jiang Yuan was stunned.

“Oh, is that so?”

He then smiled and said, “Well then, happy birthday Xiaoxiao!”

“Thank you, Young Master, Xiaoxiao is very happy!”

After Jiang Yuan and Shu Xiaoxiao left the Gold and Jade Square, they headed towards the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

If one were to talk about the best-informed place, it would undoubtedly be the Heavenly Secret Pavilion!

90% of the great cultivators proficient in deduction techniques in the world come from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

Naturally, they also have the most up-to-date information.

At the same time, the Heavenly Secret Pavilion is also one of the top powers in the Five Realms and Four Seas.

The famous Supreme Ranking, a flawless immortal weapon, has been worshipped in the Heavenly Secret Pavilion for countless years.

Up to now, this item has never been stolen or lost.

This shows how extraordinary it is!

The two soon arrived at the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

“Do you want to buy information or investigate it, Young Master?”

A maid seeing Jiang Yuan stepping in quickly greeted him with respect.

She knew Jiang Yuan’s identity the moment she saw him.

Currently, he is the first on the Qianyuan Kingdom’s Heavenly Ranking.

And most likely, the first in the history of the kingdom.

If he doesn’t fall midway, allowing him to display all his talents, he could gain a seat on the Supreme Ranking.

Once he is on the Supreme Ranking and receives the protection of that immortal weapon.

It’s extremely difficult for him to fall unless he faces a peer-competitor.

If even an elder generation tries to take action, due to the protection of the qi of the immortal weapon, various changes may occur which allow him to have a narrow escape.

Only those who can connect heaven and earth can disregard the backlash of luck and forcibly strike down his enemy.

Because for them, no matter how great the accident might be, they can wipe it out.

Jiang Yuan said, “To buy information!”

“Please follow me, Young Master!”

The maid led Jiang Yuan to a VIP room, which was the treatment for the first on the Heavenly Ranking.

“Please wait a moment, Young Master! The Pavilion Master will come out soon!”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “There’s no need to bother the Pavilion Master, I just want to buy some common information!”

“It’s not a problem, the Pavilion Master is also eager to meet Young Master Jiang!”

The maid said while she poured Jiang Yuan some tea.

Within a few breaths.

Jiang Yuan had just taken a sip of tea when an elderly man with white eyebrows and beard, exuding an immortal charm, appeared before Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan stood up and said, “Greetings to the Pavilion Master!”

Observing the rich Golden Qi of Luck on him, Jiang Yuan had a thought.

Strains of innate luck quickly gathered into Jiang Yuan’s status panel.

Jiang Yuan glanced at the fluctuating numbers on his panel.

He thought to himself that he hadn’t looked at the precise number before, but it should be more than sixty.

Not bad!

The higher the cultivation, surely the more luck that can be stored.

He opened the panel of the Pavilion Master for another glance.

[Name]: Yu Xuanji

[Realm]: Fourfold of Dharma Realm

[Innate Luck]: Seed of Karma (Purple) Unpredictable Heavenly Secrets (Blue) Pre-emptive Strike (Blue) Innate Wisdom Root (Blue) Outstanding Talent (Blue)… …

[Seed of Karma]: Possessing the Seed of Karma, you have extraordinary perception for the Path of Karma.

[Unpredictable Heavenly Secrets]: The heavenly secrets are muddled, it’s hard to predict your past and future, you have good talent for the Path of Deduction.

[Pre-emptive Strike]: In a fight, you subconsciously perceive impending dangers.

[Innate Wisdom Root]: Born with extraordinary wisdom roots, deep understanding, occasionally entering an enlightening state.

[Outstanding Talent]: Your aptitude vastly surpasses ordinary people, learning martial techniques, practicing techniques, and breaking through realms are much easier for you than for others.

Seed of Karma?

Jiang Yuan looked surprised.

This path is not common!

This Master of Heavenly Secret Pavilion is also extraordinary!

Yu Xuanji, seeing Jiang Yuan’s face, smiled broadly, “No need for formalities, I’m pleased to meet Daoist Friend Jiang Yuan!”

He also quickly bowed to Jiang Yuan.

Then he raised his hand to motion, “Please have a seat, Daoist Friend. We can talk as equals! The path of Cultivation acknowledges only the accomplished. Judging from your performance, you will break through the Dharma Realm in a few years, and your Cultivation realm won’t be inferior to mine.”

Jiang Yuan didn’t refuse and nodded in agreement before sitting down.

Yu Xuanji sat on a chair next to Jiang Yuan.

He picked up the tea already brewed by the maid and took a small sip.

“I wonder what kind of information Daoist Friend Jiang Yuan is looking for?”

“Beast God Mountain and Xuanyuan City!”

Yu Xuanji nodded, “I see.”

He beckoned and a maid came to his side.

“Go, bring over the detailed information about Beast God Mountain and Xuanyuan City.”

“Yes, Pavilion Master!”

The maid curtsied and quickly left.

“Daoist Friend, have some tea first. The information will be here soon.”

Jiang Yuan nodded and smiled, “There’s no rush!”

Then he took a couple of sips of tea.

Seeing Jiang Yuan, Yu Xuanji was a bit puzzled in his heart.

Unlike Jiang Yuan, he knew quite a lot about Beast God Mountain and Xuanyuan City.

The secret realm of Beast God Mountain is a tale as old as time.

It is said that an exceptional genius of the true phoenix lineage from the upper realm fell here in ancient times, attacked by a powerful enemy.

A secret realm was formed after he fell.

No one knows what exactly happened in between.

But one thing is known, that genius of the true phoenix lineage fell in the Beast God Mountain, and shortly after, a significant event impacting the world today occurred.

Deadly Heavenly Passage!

Long after, a secret realm appeared.

People speculate that the secret realm formed after the fall of the phoenix genius, and could possibly be his place of nirvana.

This is because only that fallen genius of the true phoenix lineage could correspond to this suddenly appearing secret realm.

Nirvana is a top innate divine power of the true phoenix lineage.

If the nirvana is successful, that genius of the true phoenix lineage has a chance to live a second life.

So when this secret realm was discovered, countless people flocked to it.

However, up till now, no one has found the so-called place of phoenix nirvana.

Yet occasionally, there are some good gains from the secret realm, some rare and precious resources can be found inside.
