Chapter 239 - 210
Chapter 239 of "Spiritual Energy Rejuvenation: I Began Cultivating By Farming" opens showing developments: Hahaha.” The jubilant and hearty laughter of the Patriarch rang out, and had there not... Keep reading!
Hahaha.” The jubilant and hearty laughter of the Patriarch rang out, and had there not been a formation here, the laughter would have shattered the rooftop.
Amidst his father’s laughter, the Xuanyuan Family Head felt as if an earthquake had shaken the ground.
The movements of someone with Spirit Mansion cultivation were indeed formidable.
He eagerly anticipated leaving his father’s secret chamber so he could return to his own cultivation spot and also advance to the Spirit Mansion cultivation level.
“Ah, that’s right, could the person who refined the Supreme Elixir be that old monster?” After laughing, the Patriarch grew curious about the person who could refine such elixirs, already having some ideas in his mind.
“Father, the one who refined the Supreme Elixir is a young man, about the same age as your grandson, a very formidable youth.
His cultivation has already reached the Ocean Wheel stage.”
The Patriarch looked at his son disbelievingly.
Being an alchemist himself, he found it hard to believe that a young person could be so powerful.
“Could he be disguising his age, actually an old monster who has taken on a young appearance?”
The Xuanyuan Family Head shook his head, trusting his own observations.
“Absolutely not, this person’s history is widely known throughout the Cultivation World.
Three years ago, he was a commoner’s child, then entered the North City Immortal Sect as a Servant Disciple and served for three years.
It is said that just a month ago, his cultivation was still at the seventh level of Qi Refining.
He was ambushed and robbed, and it was during a life-threatening encounter deep underground that he stumbled upon a stroke of good fortune.
In just over a month, his cultivation level soared, now matching that of your son.”
The Patriarch half-believed his son’s words, stroked his goatee thoughtfully, and said:
“Are these reports true or false?
Did he mention where he was ambushed and robbed, or where exactly he encountered his fortuitous opportunity?”
The Xuanyuan Family Head nodded and added:
“The external rumors have been confirmed by his own admission, with witnesses corroborating his story.
He was undergoing a trial in the oasis of Liusha Sea City when he was ambushed and robbed.
He was lucky to survive, being blasted into a deep pit that led to another space.”
“A trial in the oasis of Liusha Sea City?
Our clan members have never participated in a trial there, right?
Our family has always considered that place too low level.
Only ordinary sects and clans go there for trials.
I never imagined there would be another space in that place.”
“Right, it’s because we were unaware that we missed out.
Some disciples from our family have already gone there secretly to investigate.
After several days of travel, they arrived at the trial site of the oasis in Liusha Sea City.
But so far, they haven’t discovered any new space underneath the oasis.”
“Have members of other noble families discovered it?
Or is it that Jiang Tang entered a different dimension, and after he emerged, that space closed off, making it impossible for others to find it?”
“Mm, father, what you’re suggesting could be possible.
Not everyone can have such a fortunate encounter.
Just knowing about such a person and bringing him into our family would be a great boon for us.”
“Mm, if he is indeed a young man, we can use the young generation of our family to form a marriage alliance with him.
Having this kinship would allow us to hold onto him even more firmly.”
“Father, that’s exactly what your son has been doing.
Among the Ten Great Clans, the others may have heard of our intentions and have surprisingly sent their female disciples to approach Jiang Tang, offering seduction through beauty.”
“Mm, those who can become major clans are no pushovers.
We just have to do our best and focus on increasing our cultivation first!”
The moment the Patriarch thought of the other family’s efforts to become stronger, he wouldn’t allow himself to fall behind.
The Xuanyuan Family was once ranked first among the Ten Great Clans and aimed to maintain that position in the future.
As the young rose in cultivation, he, as the Patriarch, could not afford to be left behind.
Now, what used to feel like an insurmountable tier seemed achievable with the help of the Supreme Elixir, and becoming the first to ascend was no longer just a dream.
The Xuanyuan Family Head was sent away by his father, and he didn’t return to the council hall or to the guest reception hall, opting instead to go into seclusion in his own residence.
Returning to his dwelling, he was reminded of his wife and that his son also possessed a portion of the elixir.
The Xuanyuan Family Head visited his wife first.
Both were cultivators, and they practiced in different places, cultivating separately.
While he was busy with official duties, his attendants also managed the household affairs, with each having their own office space for work.
He guessed that his wife must be dealing with matters in the living room at the moment.
He went to find her in the living room, had everyone else leave, and discussed this incident with her.
“Husband, this is truly wonderful, I can also improve my cultivation,” said the wife of the Xuanyuan Family Head, like other wives, she sought to cultivate and stand equally with her husband.
“Mhm, this is your share, wife, and the one for our son will be kept by me for now.
I will have someone summon him back.”
“Yes, although our son is at the Nascent Soul Stage and is a major step behind that Jiang Tang of Ocean Wheel, that commoner Jiang Tang is really powerful.
No wonder husband, you decided to betroth our niece to him.”
As the Wife of the Family Head, the Xuanyuan wife had the right to decide marriage arrangements for the young masters and misses in the family, and beyond strategic marriages, she hoped they would find good places to call home.
The Xuanyuan wife was dressed in luxurious elegance, her clothes crafted by an Artifact Refiner, not ordinary Lingluo silk but made from Heavenly Silkworm Silk, offering warmth in winter, coolness in summer, and served as a Magical Treasure that could both defend and attack.
Even every piece of jewelry she wore could be a container or might be an offensive and defensive Magical Treasure, and the beaded hairpin on her head was no ordinary item either.
Those were all jewelry that could serve as Flying Treasures and also be used as weapons.
“Of course, your husband has certainly thought things through; our family has run out of Supreme Elixirs.
I heard that person collects Spirit Grass seeds, and I don’t believe he could have obtained so many Spirit Grasses in that space.
Continuously refining Supreme Elixirs, the items brought out will eventually run out, yet she seems to have an inexhaustible supply of Spirit Grass.
I suspect he has a Magical Treasure that can cultivate them.”
The Xuanyuan Family Head had these suspicions but it was inappropriate to ask.
Everyone has their own secrets; they merely enjoy the benefits derived from them.
Probing too much might be disadvantageous for them—Jiang Tang might become wary of them.
“Husband speaks wisely.
I’ve heard that many Magical Treasures crafted by ancient Immortals came with spaces for cultivating Spirit Plants.
Perhaps Jiang Tang fell into a space belonging to the ancestors of an ancient battlefield and managed to take that space with him.
If those people can no longer find that space,
I suspect Jiang Tang’s secrets are not limited to being able to refine Supreme Elixirs.
It’s said that he possesses Spiritual Fire, which is why he was chased and almost had his treasures snatched away.
To refine Supreme Elixirs, he must undoubtedly hold his own secrets, his own Magical Treasures.”
The Xuanyuan wife had also sent people to investigate this person.
Who would have heard of a man with Mixed Spiritual Roots from an ordinary family achieving such incredible proficiency in cultivation in just a few years, or even in just over a month?
Even people from their Great Clans could not achieve this.
Even her own cultivation level couldn’t catch up, and perhaps among the younger generation, Jiang Tang was the most formidable.
Anyone who heard these rumors would not be convinced and would want to investigate and learn more about this person.
After hearing his wife’s words, the Xuanyuan Family Head felt she was quite right, and after instructing her a few more things, he returned to his own cave dwelling to cultivate.
An Earl and several Viscounts were outside the forest.
That day, many people in Immortal Venerable City were poisoned and the city was sealed off.
They were wrongly accused of being terrorists, but after clarification, it was believed that they were not criminals.
Logically, they had come just to watch the excitement, but upon encountering such danger, they should have left.
Yet, they did not depart, instead, they joined everyone in helping the people of Immortal Venerable City with the antidote.
The young people who grew up in the deep mountains and ancient forests never knew how treacherous the human heart could be.
Just as they were poisoned, an Elder planned to slay all the people in their village, and they regarded this person as a terribly wicked devil.
Only when Immortal Venerable City was poisoned did they realize that some would harm innocents in their quest for resources.
The Earl and his companions could not refine Pills, could not help much with Alchemy, so they volunteered to guard on their own initiative.
After multiple efforts by people to administer the antidote, eventually, with the arrival of a supreme Alchemist, the entire city’s population was detoxified.
Immortal Venerable City opened its gates, and those outside the city could feel the vital Qi drifting from inside the city, making their bodies feel comfortable.
