Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Affairs Hall.

Located in the main peak of the Seven Great Peaks of the Supreme Mystery Sect.

Jiang Yuan came to the Affairs Hall without any obstacles by virtue of his identity token.

“Young fellow, what do you need help with?” a frail old man asked slowly.

Jiang Yuan, after glancing at his Status Panel, quickly and respectfully responded: “Esteemed elder! I need to exchange for two follower identity tokens!”

“Hand over twenty lower-grade spiritual stones and show your identity token!”

Jiang Yuan presented his identity token: “I don’t have spiritual stones, can I use banknotes instead?”

“Sure! As long as they are banknotes from any of the five major banks of the Qianyuan Kingdom, they can directly be exchanged for spiritual stones. One thousand taels of silver can exchange for one lower-grade spiritual stone. You can also complete Sect tasks to earn achievement points to exchange for spiritual stones!”

So expensive! Jiang Yuan’s tongue involuntarily clicked in disbelief.

A thousand taels of silver! In mortal society, that’s enough to support a family of four for a lifetime without worries.

Yet in the Immortal Sect, it was only enough for one lower-grade spiritual stone. He had no idea what spiritual stones were good for!

Then Jiang Yuan took out twenty thousand taels in banknotes from his body, effectively draining over thirty percent of his wealth.

The old man glanced at Jiang Yuan in surprise.

He was astonished as Jiang Yuan, dressed simply, surprisingly pulled out such a generous amount.

Exchanging silver directly for spiritual stones was a poor value deal, and usually, very few people would do so.

Even if they intended to exchange, they would usually do so privately.

Private exchanges offer a much higher exchange rate!

He accepted the banknotes and identity token that Jiang Yuan submitted without saying much else.

After checking it twice and confirming the identity token to be correct.

He handed two black tokens to Jiang Yuan.

“Take these back to your followers to perform a blood recognition. Then their status will be equivalent to half yours and they can visit most places!”

Next, he took out a small booklet and gave it to Jiang Yuan.

“I see you’ve just joined the sect recently, take this back and read it carefully to supplement your basic knowledge, especially the rules of the Supreme Mystery Sect, make sure you understand them properly!”

Jiang Yuan quickly thanked him: “Thank you elder!”

On the way back, Jiang Yuan finished reading the entire booklet.

Now, he understood that spiritual stones were equivalent to cultivation resources for those above the Meridian-Breaking Realm.

And for Artifact-Refining, Pill-refining, creating formations…

They were useful everywhere, no wonder they became the universal currency in the cultivation world.

Every spiritual stone was the result of processing, forming a unified specification.

Just as he opened the gate to the courtyard.

Jiang Yuan’s gaze suddenly fixed.

The courtyard was now spotless and completely transformed.

Gu MO stood under a tree, his hand on his sword hilt, eyes closed.

The man wasn’t moving at all!

Although he didn’t draw his sword, in Jiang Yuan’s eyes.

Each falling bamboo leaf appeared to be a sword filled with chilling light.

Jiang Yuan gently closed his eyes, excluding his divine sense, and instantly everything turned pitch black.

Yet even so, those sword-like bamboo leaves remained clear and deeply imprinting in his mind.

“Young Master, you’re back!” Gu MO suddenly said.

The vision in Jiang Yuan’s mind suddenly disappeared.

He shut the gate, “Gu MO, what were you doing just now?”

“Nourishing Intent!” Gu MO said,” Nourishing an intent that can slay all enemies with a single sword stroke!”

Then he slowly revealed a smile.

“I feel that I am walking on the road of success. The moment my intent is fully formed, I am confident I can slay all enemies!”

After saying that.

Zing!

A sound of a sword singing.

Within three meters of him, the falling bamboo leaves instantly broke in half.

Then he slowly sheathed his sword.

“Young Master, you see, this is the insight that I recently gained!”

Jiang Yuan’s expression was also full of surprise.

Under the envelopment of his divine sense, he clearly saw the scene where Gu MO merely drew his sword without making any other move.

But the bamboo leaves within three meters of him seemed to have been cut by an invisible sword qi.

Every one of them split into two, incredibly precise!

Not a single bamboo leaf that fell within the three meters was missed!

So this is the natural talent of a Sword God?

Indeed it’s formidable!

He actually self-taught and comprehended his own sword technique.

Jiang Yuan commented, “Great! Your sword does have an unpredictable taste.” He threw a token to Gu Mo.

“Register it with your blood. If necessary, you can go to the first floor of the techniques Tower to learn from the techniques of our predecessors, and absorb their essence!”

“Yes, Young Master!” Gu MO nodded his head in response.

At this moment.

Shu Xiaoxiao, holding a quilt, walked out from the side room and smiled upon seeing Jiang Yuan.

“Young Master, are you back?”

Jiang Yuan nodded and said,” Come to my room!”

Shu Xiaoxiao promptly followed Jiang Yuan to the main room.

Then she put the quilt in her hand neatly on the bed.

When she finished her work, Jiang Yuan said, “Give me your hand!”

Then he took her finger, making a small cut, a bead of blood slowly seeped out and dripped onto the black token.

Jiang Yuan then looked at her Status Panel again.

[Name] : Shu Xiaoxiao

[Realm]:yet to step in

[Inborn Qi movement]:conceptual phase (above purple) Deeply blessed (blue) Pure heart (blue) Outstanding talent (blue) High comprehension (green) Body of wood (green)

Her key Qi movement was still in the conceptual phase.

He then instructed, “Tonight we do the medicinal bath, use all the remaining ginseng tonight and I will help you refine it! ”

“Yes, Young Master!” Shu Xiaoxiao nodded, ” Then I will go heat the water now! ”

“Go ahead!”

With Jiang Yuan’s consent, she immediately left the room with her steps lighter.

Night fell, the moon rose from the east.

Shu Xiaoxiao was huddled in a bathtub, filled with mist.

Squeak!

Suddenly there was the sound of a door being opened.

Her fingers gripping onto the tub edge turned white involuntarily. Looking at this scene, Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but smile lightly.

“What are you so nervous about!”

“Yo… Young Master, I…” Instantly, Shu Xiaoxiao became so nervous that she couldn’t articulate her words.

Jiang Yuan approached the bathtub, thinking it was a bit humorous.

With her flat-chested figure, what was there to be nervous about?

At that moment.

The leftover heat from the burning wood below kept the tub warm.

Shu Xiaoxiao had only her head remaining outside the water surface, her cheeks flushed from the heat.

The water in the tub had turned red, with strands of blood swirling about, clearly visible.

“Did you throw all the leftover ginseng in?”

“Mmm!” She nodded.

Jiang Yuan then put his palm on top of her head, a strand of divine soul power immediately fused into her body.

Helping others to refine medicinal power was an impossible feat to others unless their cultivation was extremely advanced.

But before Jiang Yuan, with his strong and refined divine soul!

Controller the divine soul precisely, as easy as flipping his palm.

As the divine soul entered her body, Jiang Yuan silently shook his head, she shouldn’t be called Shu Xiaoxiao, more like Shu Pingping.

Then he cast aside the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind and focused his mind.

With full force, he controlled the strand of divine soul power that had left his body, fused it into her body, and began to absorb and refine the medicinal power in the hot water..
