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

For the next two weeks, Xuanxi would come to Jiang Yuchuan's courtyard almost every day to sit for a while.

Despite his constant teasing of Xuan Xi's shameless freeloading behavior, Jiang Yuchuan would always include Xuan Xi in his meals.

Furthermore, during his conversations with Xuanxi over the past few days, he learned many little-known secrets about the martial arts world and the imperial court. He also learned Xuanxi's true identity and background.

As he had predicted, Xuan Xi's identity was indeed extraordinary; he came from Baiyun Temple, one of the four top sects in the martial arts world. He was also the most senior person in Baiyun Temple at present, and even the current abbot had to respectfully address him as "Master Uncle."

Jiang Yuchuan was no stranger to Baiyun Temple, a major martial arts sect with a history of over a thousand years. He immediately came up with a plan to take advantage of the situation. He instructed Qi Changqing to casually practice the martial arts he had taught in front of Xuanxi the next time Xuanxi visited. During the practice, Qi Changqing was not to appear too proficient and was to intentionally make one or two mistakes.

Qi Changqing was intelligent, and he was often present when Jiang Yuchuan talked with Xuan Xi these days. He naturally knew Xuan Xi's identity, so he easily guessed Jiang Yuchuan's purpose in asking him to do this.

As a seasoned and shrewd person, Xuanxi naturally saw through Jiang Yuchuan's plan the moment Qi Changqing appeared and started throwing punches.

Although she knew she was being treated like a lamb to be fleeced, Xuanxi didn't mind at all. On the contrary, she welcomed it warmly and willingly, and even hoped that Jiang Yuchuan could fleece her even more.

Xuan Xi wasn't doing this simply to curry favor with Jiang Yuchuan. Rather, he had genuinely gained considerable benefits from this period of freeloading.

Although he didn't know what Jiang Yuchuan had added to the food and tea, after eating the food and drinking the tea, the energy he had lost for more than ten years due to the backlash when he was divining for Jiang Yuchuan was not only fully restored in a short time, but even his own blood and qi power was greatly improved!

The power of Qi and blood is not only related to a martial artist's own strength, but also closely related to lifespan!

Without Jiang Yuchuan's meals over the past half month, Xuanxi would have lived for another five or six years at most.

Now, Xuanxi feels that even if she lives for another ten years or so, there will be no problem at all!

Xuan Xi was struggling to find a way to repay such a great favor. Qi Changqing's actions provided him with just the right opportunity!

Therefore, when Xuanxi was instructing Qi Changqing in martial arts, she taught him everything she knew, even bringing out one of the Baiyun Temple's signature techniques, the "Seven Star Absolute Meridian Sword".

Jiang Yuchuan naturally saw all of this and wasn't surprised at all by Xuan Xi's behavior. After all, how could he not know what Xuan Xi had gotten from him?

The reason Xuanxi was able to benefit so much from the meals he had been eating these past few days was entirely because he had enhanced the spiritual energy contained in the food.

Although Jiang Yuchuan repeatedly expressed his disdain and ridicule for Xuan Xi, it was undeniable that Xuan Xi's style and temperament were very much to his liking. Moreover, Xuan Xi possessed far more experience and knowledge than ordinary people, and every conversation with him was always enjoyable and fulfilling.

It would be a real pity for someone like him to die so young, which is why Jiang Yuchuan helped him out a little.

However, Qi Changqing, the person involved, was unaware of the key details.

He thought that Jiang Yuchuan asked him to do this just so that Xuanxi could give him some pointers on his skills, but he never expected that Xuanxi would end up teaching him so much!

All sorts of martial arts techniques—lightness skills, footwork, palm techniques, fist techniques, sword techniques, and finger techniques—were thrown at him all at once!

It almost knocked him unconscious!

Qi Changqing was not opposed to learning more martial arts; in fact, he was somewhat looking forward to it. However, in order not to neglect his medical studies while practicing martial arts, he had to shorten his rest time, reducing his daily sleep from four hours to two hours.

Because he had been eating food imbued with spiritual energy for a long time and had also mastered the basics of the "Eternal Spring Technique," sleeping only two hours a day had no effect on Qi Changqing.

Later, he even discovered that practicing the "Eternal Spring Skill" at night could also have a certain effect on cultivating the spirit. So he hardened his heart and compressed his sleep time again, turning it into only sleeping for one hour a day!

From then on, Qi Changqing completely transformed into a spinning top. In the morning, he concentrated on learning medical skills from Jiang Yuchuan, and in the afternoon, under Xuanxi's guidance, he devoted himself to martial arts training. After returning home in the evening, he would silently meditate and practice the "Eternal Spring Skill".

This went on for more than a month until Jiang Yuchuan announced that he would be going back to Daqingshan to collect herbs, which brought a temporary respite.

Qi Changqing naturally wanted to go into the mountains to gather herbs, but Xuanxi thought that she would be quite bored if the two of them went into the mountains alone, so she simply offered to go with them as well.

Jiang Yuchuan readily agreed.

Therefore, the old man, the young man, and the teenager each carried a bamboo basket and stepped into the Daqingshan Mountain at dawn the next day.

On the second day after Jiang Yuchuan and his two companions entered the mountains, four very special guests arrived in Qingyang Town.

Among the four, the leader was a kind-looking, slightly plump, fair-skinned middle-aged man. Behind him were two men and a woman, all of whom held swords and had handsome appearances, looking no more than twenty-five years old.

The two men were Tong Mu and Che Zhanhong, who had appeared in town before.

The middle-aged man leading the group was their martial uncle, Cai Shiyuan, the second elder of the Wenjian Sect. The youngest-looking woman at the end was their junior sister, Cai Yingmei, Cai Shiyuan's beloved daughter.

"Father, so much time has passed. Is that mysterious grandmaster you mentioned still in this town? Have we come all this way for nothing?"

Cai Yingmei blinked her big, bright eyes, glancing around curiously at the various trinkets being sold at the surrounding stalls.

This was her first time coming down the mountain in sixteen years, and she had even begged to come along, just to see the outside world, have some fun, and broaden her horizons. As for searching for the mysterious master, she didn't care at all, which is why she asked the question in such a casual tone.

"It may be, or it may not be."

Cai Shiyuan replied with a smile, "But this is, after all, the only place we know that the grandmaster once appeared, so even if there is only a sliver of a possibility, we still have to come here and give it a try."

Tong Mu and Che Zhanhong both nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"Father, can that grandmaster really make withered trees bloom in winter and flowers bloom in the snow? Are all grandmasters that powerful?"

While asking curiously, Cai Yingmei took out some silver and bought a pearl hairpin, which she then put in her hair.

Tong Mu and Che Zhanhong were also quite curious about this.

They only had a vague concept of the power of a Grandmaster, and they knew nothing about whether a Grandmaster possessed any other means besides strength; they were only at the stage of speculation.
