Chapter 222 – Departure to Ancient Origin City

Chapter 222 – Departing Ancient Yuan City

A few days later.

Jiang Chengxuan had just finished digesting the epiphanies gained from possessing the Formation Master.

The summoning jade talisman he had with him vibrated violently.

Taking out the summoning jade talisman, he took a look.

Jiang Chengxuan’s face couldn’t help but change slightly.

The message was sent to him by Hua Mengyue.

There was only one content, and that was that this time, the demonic beast chaos had already begun.

Sure enough.

The time was about two years earlier than expected.

Jiang Chengxuan didn’t dare to be slow, and at that moment, he directly went out of his cave.

Just after coming outside, Jiang Chengxuan saw Shen Ruyan, who also happened to come out of her own cave.

At this time, the breath on her body, actually gave Jiang Chengxuan a kind of hidden oppression.

This caused his heart to be taken aback, and he couldn’t help but look at Shen Ruyan and ask:

“Ruyan, your cultivation …… level?”

“Uh-huh.”

Shen Ruyan nodded slightly.

“It’s already at the peak of the ninth level of the Violet Mansion.

If there are no accidents, within the next few decades, it should be possible to attempt to condense the Golden Dan.”

“Really?”

Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart was instantly delighted.

He had known for a long time that Shen Ruyan was much faster than ordinary cultivators in both her cultivation and her divine ability because of the accumulation from her previous life.

Now it seemed that this potential should still be able to help her go for a long time.

At that moment, the couple briefly exchanged their gains from these years of seclusion.

Through the exchange, Jiang Chengxuan learned that Shen Ruyan had not only broken through her own cultivation to the peak of the ninth level of the Purple Mansion over these years.

Moreover, she had also utilized the series of resources she had previously obtained to raise her innate magic treasure, the Five Thunders Chopping Immortal Sword, to the Pseudo-fourth rank level.

The Falling Thunder Heavenly Seal, was also raised to the upper third rank level.

In addition, like Jiang Chengxuan before her, she had also smelted some of the magic treasures she couldn’t use, or those that had been eliminated, and extracted the materials from them, then paired them with some other precious materials, and eventually refined a Third Order Upper Grade Defense Magic Treasure of her own.

A shield that flashed with lightning.

Named by Shen Ruyan as the Golden Thunder Heavenly Ring Shield.

After it was activated, it could release a ring-shaped golden heavenly thunder.

Not only could it resist the attacks of others, but the ring-shaped golden heavenly thunder thus released also possessed the efficacy of paralyzing the magic treasure and weakening its power.

It was considered to be one of the top third-order top-grade defensive magic treasures.

Even compared to some pseudo-fourth rank defensive magic treasures, in terms of function and effect, it was no less impressive.

On top of that, Shen Ruyan had also refined her Thunder Spirit True Body.

A very powerful and esoteric Dao body divine ability.

Once cast, not only could it completely transform itself into thunder, but it could also cast all sorts of thunder divine abilities spells at will.

If one is holding a thunder system treasure, one can increase the power of the treasure several times out of nowhere.

In addition, under the state of Thunder Spirit true body, it is not a real flesh and blood body.

Therefore, general attacks on the Thunder Spirit’s true body would not be able to play much of a role.

It was just that this kind of Dao Body Avatar was extremely consuming for itself.

Therefore.

If it wasn’t a last resort, Shen Ruyan wouldn’t easily cast her Thunder Spirit True Body.

At this moment, he heard Jiang Chengxuan say:
“Ruyan, I’m sure you should have received the transmission from Daoist Flower’s side, right?”

Seeing Jiang Chengxuan ask about this, Shen Ruyan’s face couldn’t help but take on a touch of gravity.

Then she saw her nod and said, “That’s right, the summons from Fellow Daoist Hua’s side, I have indeed received it on my side.”

At that moment, the couple briefly conferred about the matter this time.

A few moments later.

The two of them then left Xuan Ming Peak together and flew towards the council hall where the Jiang family was located.

On the way, Jiang Chengxuan had already sent a message to all the elders of the Jiang family about the demonic beast chaos, and told them to gather at the Council Hall as soon as possible.

In response, all the elders of the Jiang family did not dare to be slow.

When Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan arrived at the Jiang family’s main peak’s council hall.

Jiang Rendao, Liu Linglong, Family Head Jiang Renyi, and Jiang Renchuan and other Jiang Family Elders were all already waiting here.

Jiang Chengxuan glanced at the crowd present, then without any nonsense, he directly opened the door and said:

“Gentlemen, regarding the matter of the Demon Beast Rebellion this time, I think you all should already have some understanding, right?”

Without waiting for the crowd to reply, Jiang Chengxuan already continued to speak:

“The things that I asked you to arrange and prepare before, how are they arranged and prepared now?”

With that, Jiang Chengxuan’s gaze, then looked towards Jiang Renyi, Jiang Rendao, and Liu Linglong several people.

Family Head Jiang Renyi immediately bowed and replied, “Greetings Uncle, those things you asked us to arrange and prepare before, we have all arranged and prepared them properly at the moment.

Including the things that should have been said, we have also spoken to all of the clansmen.

So far, no clan members have raised any objections.”

“Not bad.”

Jiang Chengxuan nodded in satisfaction at once.

“In that case, then follow the original plan.

But whoever is willing to take the initiative to travel with us afterward, regardless of what happens in the future, he, as well as his offspring, will all have their cultivation resources doubled.

Including Foundation Establishment Pills and even Crystals of the Five Elements, as long as the conditions are sufficient, they can be supplied on a priority basis.”

Speaking at this point, the light of the summoning jade talisman suddenly lit up again on Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s bodies.

This caused both of them to not be able to help but condense their complexions.

At that moment, they took out the summoning jade talisman and carefully read over its contents.

Instantly, both of them couldn’t help but have a strong look of astonishment appear on their faces.

Surprisingly, they wanted them, the Jiang Family and the Bai Family, to go to Ancient Yuan City together and take charge of the township over there.

Moreover, during this process, Hua Mengyue and that Senior Brother Li Fei of hers would also be traveling together.

It was no wonder that they had such a reaction at the moment.

One must know that nowadays, they, the Jiang family and that Bai family, could be said to be the topmost Violet Mansion Immortal clans in the Liang Immortal Cultivation World.

Both clans had more than two late Purple Mansion cultivators in their clans.

Especially that Bai family.

Its old ancestor, Bai Mingshan, was already a cultivator at the ninth level of the Purple Mansion a hundred years ago.

Now that a hundred years had passed, his cultivation, exactly what realm he had reached, was unknown to anyone.

And besides that old ancestor Bai Mingshan, their Bai family also had a cultivation genius, the white-haired youth they had seen that day at that Bishui Auction, named Bai Yuanchen.

At that time, his cultivation level was the seventh level of the Purple Mansion.

Now that so many years had passed, to say that his cultivation hadn’t grown at all would obviously be impossible.

Finally, there was Hua Mengyue and her Senior Brother Li Fei.

Both of their cultivation levels were similarly at the late Zifu stage.

If you count the couple again.

Then all of a sudden, the number of late Purple Mansion cultivators that had gathered in that Ancient Yuan City had reached as many as six.

One must know that the late Purple Mansion stage was not some kind of cabbage.

Putting such a luxurious lineup in that Ancient Yuan City.

What was so special about that Ancient Yuan City that it required so many of their late stage Purple Mansion cultivators to jointly guard it?

Thinking of this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but both look at each other.

At that moment, the two of them didn’t hide anything, and instead, they roughly told the crowd what they had just received.

After hearing this, the crowd’s reaction was almost the same as Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s, they couldn’t help but have a strong look of astonishment on their faces.

Only to hear Jiang Renyi say, “Uncle, could it be that within that Gu Yuan City, there is something of particular importance, or some special strategic significance?”

Jiang Chengxuan shook his head and said, “This is not easy to say for the time being, what exactly is the situation, when you and I arrive over there, we will naturally know.

For now, let’s just deliberate on who will go on the expedition with us next, and who will be responsible for staying behind to garrison the clan.”

As soon as his words fell, many people in the arena immediately got up and expressed their willingness to follow Jiang Chengxuan and the others and head to Ancient Yuan City together.

Among them were the family head Jiang Renyi, as well as the Supreme Elders Jiang Rendao and Liu Linglong.

Jiang Chengxuan looked at them, then raised his hand and ordered a few people to stay behind and be responsible for stationing the family.

All of them were relatively young people who had just become elders not long after breaking through Foundation Establishment.

Then there were a few people who weren’t good at fighting and were mainly responsible for refining pills and weapons.

Finally, Jiang Chengxuan looked at Liu Linglong again and spoke:

“Linglong, you shouldn’t participate in the demonic beast chaos this time, so stay within the clan and help look after and guard the clan.”

This immediately caused Liu Linglong’s face to just change slightly.

However, before she could open her mouth next, she heard Jiang Chengxuan continue:

“My mind is made up on this matter, so you don’t need to say anything more.

Also, staying in the clan, you shouldn’t think that it’s such an easy thing.

During our absence, the safety and maintenance of the entire clan rests on you alone, so I hope you won’t let us down.”

Indeed.

Leaving Liu Linglong behind this time was also his decision after careful consideration.

First of all, he and Shen Ruyan, were bound to head to the frontline.

And according to the requirements, Jiang Rendao and Liu Linglong, must also go to another one.

Jiang Rendao was good at fighting, but not good at management.

If he was allowed to stay within the clan, it was obviously not very suitable.

As such, Liu Linglong, who possessed Purple Mansion cultivation and was good at managing and maintaining the daily affairs of the clan, was naturally the only candidate to stay.

As for why the family head Jiang Renyi was not left behind, the reason was also very simple.

After they went to the frontline Gu Yuan City, the following would need someone who could command the lower-ranked cultivators.

And this person, looking at the Jiang family, there was no one more suitable than Jiang Renyi.

Soon, the entire Jiang family acted.

A few days later.

Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, Jiang Renyi, and a host of other Jiang Family executives, with hundreds of Qi Refining Stage clansmen, traveled to Ancient Yuan City together on several third-order treasure ships.

This time, the cultivators from their Jiang family who traveled to Ancient Yuan City, there were three Purple Mansion Superiors, fifteen Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, and hundreds of Qi Refining Stage cultivators.

When their group arrived at Ancient Yuan City and saw the tall walls of Ancient Yuan City, many of the Qi Refining Stage Jiang Family cultivators couldn’t help but have a shocked look on their faces.

Obviously, up until now, they had never seen such a lofty and huge city wall.

“Who are the comers? Please stop at once!”

Right at this moment, within that Ancient Yuan City, several voices suddenly came out.

All of them were cultivators who were responsible for stationing themselves here.

Jiang Chengxuan, who was located at the front of the boat, didn’t talk nonsense.

Straight away, he threw out a token that landed in the hand of one of the middle-aged cultivators.

That middle-aged cultivator took the token and carefully looked at it, the expression on his face immediately changed, hurriedly saluting Jiang Chengxuan who was at the head of the boat:
“So it’s the Jiang Family’s Senior Jiang Chengxuan in person, just now if we have offended, I hope Senior Jiang won’t take offense.

Quickly!
That was senior Jiang, as well as a group of Dao friends from the Jiang Clan’s Immortal Clan.

Quickly open the formation!”

The middle-aged cultivator said, rushing to order some of the people around him to quickly open the city protection formation.

These people also didn’t expect that the people who appeared before them were actually a group of people from the hallowed Jiang Clan of Immortals.

At that moment, each and every one of them all did not dare to be slow, and immediately urged the formation to open a gap.

When Jiang Chengxuan saw this, he couldn’t help but nod slightly, and then he signaled the crowd, and together, they urged the treasure ship, and soon arrived within Ancient Yuan City.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as Jiang Chengxuan and his group had just entered the Ancient Yuan City, there were several recluse lights flying over in the distance.

When the light came closer, everyone could see that it was a few Purple Mansion cultivators.

At the head of the group was none other than Jiang Chengxuan’s acquaintance, Hua Mengyue.

Beside her, there were three more people following her at the moment.

One of them was none other than Bai Yuanchen, whom they had met at the Bishui Auction that day.

On his left was a rather old man with a majestic aura around him.

If his guess was correct, he should be the Bai Family’s old ancestor, Bai Mingshan.

As for its right side, is a double ten appearance of a beautiful woman, should also be the white family of a certain Zifu cultivator.

At this moment, several people from the Bai Family were all sizing up Jiang Chengxuan and his party.

At this moment, they heard Hua Mengyue laugh, “Fellow Daoist Chengxuan, and Ruyan, you’ve finally arrived.

Come, let me introduce you guys first.”

With that, Hua Mengyue reached out and pointed to the three people beside her.

“These few people, I’m sure that you, Fellow Daoist Cheng Xuan and also Fellow Daoist Ruyan, should have heard of them before.

They are precisely the fellow White Clan members who are in charge of guarding this Ancient Yuan City along with you and me this time.

Elder Bai Mingshan, the current head of the Bai Clan, Bai Yuanchen, and Bai Zixuan of the Bai Clan.”

Soon after, Hua Mengyue gave a detailed introduction for both sides.

It could be seen that regardless of the Bai Family’s Elder Master, Bai Mingshan, or the Bai Family’s current Family Head, Bai Yuanchen, their attitudes towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s party, who had come, were quite courteous.

Only that Bai Zixuan, seems to still hold a few points of arrogance, although the attitude can not be said to be cold, but also by no means counted as warm.

This point, whether it was Jiang Chengxuan or Shen Ruyan, or Hua Mengyue, all felt out.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Hua Mengyue immediately smiled and rounded off the conversation:

“Right, you and I here don’t just stand here, hurry and go inside first.”

As she spoke, she had already called a Bishui Sword Pavilion’s Foundation Establishment Cultivator, making him responsible for arranging where Jiang Renyi and the other Refiner Foundation Establishment Cultivators would go.

As for herself, she took Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the three members of the Bai Clan, and went to the council hall here.

“By the way, is your sect’s Fellow Daoist Li Fei, not here today?”

On the way, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but look at Hua Mengyue and ask.

“Fellow Daoist Li Fei ah ……”

Hua Mengyue smiled and said, “Before, he had some things to deal with in the sect, so he didn’t come with me.

But looking at this time, I reckon that he should be almost there soon as well.”

As soon as her words fell, she saw the sky in the distance, and suddenly a sword light sped towards this side.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the three members of the Bai Clan couldn’t help but be moved in their hearts.

Then he saw Hua Mengyue smile and say, “This is really a coincidence, just talking about Senior Brother Li Fei, Senior Brother Li Fei has come over here.”

As the words fell, that sword light was already flying into Gu Yuan City.

Not a moment later, the sword light dispersed in front of the crowd, revealing a young man in a long shirt.

It was Li Fei.

“Senior Sister Hua.”

He first greeted Hua Mengyue, and then he turned his head, nodding towards Jiang Chengxuan and the others, as well as the three members of the Bai Clan.
