Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality

This transformed the once quiet fishing village on the coast into a bustling and lively place, with a constant stream of people coming and going every day.

The giant fish bestowed by the dragon during its tribulation became treasures sought after by people searching for the dragon god's traces.

Lured by prices that were ten to a hundred times higher than usual, the fishermen sold all their fish in less than two days, making a fortune.

Of course, these fishermen did not forget the promise they made. Therefore, each household took half of their earnings to fund the construction of a temple and the casting of a golden statue for the Dragon King of the Sea.

Because the money earned from selling fish was much greater than expected, both the Dragon God Temple and the Dragon God statue placed inside were expanded several times over.

Not long after the two legends about the divine dragon spread, the dynasties of Daqian, Dayong, and Dali, as well as various martial arts sects, successively dispatched special personnel to the Wuhui Sea to conduct investigations.

Because the Great Qian side reached a cooperation agreement with the three major sects several years ago, the four forces, led by the Gongfeng Academy, are now on the same boat.

This incident caused a great uproar and became known throughout the world. Moreover, it occurred in the vast sea. To ensure safety, each of the four forces that went out to investigate the situation sent a Grandmaster to lead the team in order to deal with any possible unexpected situations.

The delegation from the Great Qian Imperial Academy was led by Li Shilin, the delegation from the Great Buddha Temple was led by Hui Chen, the junior brother of Huian, the delegation from the Suspended Sword Pavilion was led by Chu Yunzheng, and the person who came from the White Cloud Temple this time was Xuan Xi, who no one expected.

Given Xuanxi's status and position at Baiyun Temple, no one would believe he was sent by Jingwei. Therefore, Xuanxi's presence here can only mean that he requested to come.

"I didn't expect that Master Xuanxi would personally lead the team from Baiyun Temple this time. Could it be that the Master is also interested in some legend of the divine dragon?"

Li Shilin walked to Xuan Xi's side, following Xuan Xi's gaze as they looked towards the sea, and greeted her with a smile.

"I was just so bored staying on the mountain that I came out for a stroll to clear my head."

Xuanxi smiled faintly: "As for the so-called divine dragon, I don't care much. Aren't there enough similar legends circulating in the world? And which one of them actually yielded any results in the end?"

"What the Taoist priest says is very true."

Li Shilin nodded in agreement, then said, "However, this time it seems to be a little different from the legends that have been circulating before. Whether the dragon really exists or not is another matter, but those terrifying and strange thunderclouds have indeed appeared. A similar situation has never happened before."

Xuanxi listened quietly without saying anything more, but her gaze towards the distant sea grew increasingly deep.

Seeing this, Li Shilin remained silent for a moment before speaking again: "Does the Daoist Master still remember the mysterious, never-seen expert who crippled Wu Yan back then?"

Xuanxi's heart skipped a beat, but she remained outwardly calm as she replied, "Of course I remember. You're bringing up that mysterious expert now, do you think the thunderclouds at sea are related to him?"

Li Shilin nodded emphatically and said solemnly, "The so-called legend of the divine dragon is nothing but a joke in my opinion. But the existence of experts in the Innate Realm is something we have all witnessed with our own eyes. We have no way of knowing what kind of methods and abilities this realm, which has disappeared for nearly a thousand years, possesses. Although being able to summon thunderclouds does sound a bit terrifying, I would rather believe the former than the divine dragon."

"Although the Innate Realm is powerful, it doesn't have the extraordinary abilities you imagine."

After a long silence, Xuanxi slowly said, "Being able to summon thunderclouds covering an area of ​​nearly a thousand miles is something that ordinary people cannot do. So, let alone the Innate Realm, even those at a higher level cannot use their mortal bodies to unleash such terrifying power of heaven and earth."

"There are realms higher than the Innate Realm?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shilin felt a strange stirring in his heart.

During the prosperous era of the Great Qian Dynasty, although it was able to dominate the entire martial arts world, its establishment time was limited. No matter how strong it was, in terms of its foundation and knowledge, it could not compare with these famous sects that had been passed down for more than a thousand years.

"I was just giving an example, Elder Li, you don't need to think too much about it." Xuanxi shook his head and chuckled: "Whether there are higher realms above the Innate Realm, I have no way of knowing."

Xuanxi's words greatly disappointed Li Shilin. The two fell silent, each lost in their own thoughts, gazing at the sea in different directions, lost in thought.

"Mr. Jiang, is this thundercloud at sea related to you...?"

Xuan Xizhi connected this matter with Jiang Yuchuan entirely because the year after the Wanren Peak incident, around the time Jiang Yuchuan discovered Fangzhang Island, he secretly descended Ziyun Mountain and embarked on his journey to Qingyang Town.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Jiang Yuchuan had already left, so he ended up coming up empty-handed.

From Qi Changqing, who was guarding the courtyard for Jiang Yuchuan, Xuanxi learned the exact time of Jiang Yuchuan's departure, and also learned that Jiang Yuchuan had specially built a wooden boat that he claimed could cross the sea before he left.

It was precisely because he understood these things that when he heard about the unprecedented thundercloud phenomenon appearing in the sky above the Wuhui Sea, he immediately thought of Jiang Yuchuan and took the initiative to offer to come and see for himself.

On the journey to the Boundless Sea, Xuanxi carefully recalled the scene she had witnessed when she used her secret technique to divine for Jiang Yuchuan. She also combined this with some information she had gathered from Qi Changqing about the methods Jiang Yuchuan had used.

In the end, Xuanxi realized that Jiang Yuchuan might be much more powerful and mysterious than she had thought.

The strange events that occurred in the Burial Valley have now been repeated in the Boundless Sea, and the situation is even worse.

In the Wuhui Sea, there happens to be a legend related to Fangzhang Immortal Island.

Both places, which were related to immortals, were suspected of having had Jiang Yuchuan's presence.

Once might be a coincidence, but what about twice?

Why have these two places, which have been explored and searched for by countless people for thousands of years and are related to immortals, never shown any unusual activity, but instead, after Jiang Yuchuan appeared, they experienced a series of inexplicable changes and anomalies?

"Is Mr. Jiang a human being, or...?"

Xuanxi dared not think any further.

Even after living for over 170 years, his heart was still pounding wildly.
