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

Because the Tianyi Sect was involved, the tea party following the banquet did not last long. After it ended hastily, Jiang Yuchuan and Qi Changqing, led by Lu Jingchen, checked into two adjacent guest rooms that had been prepared for them in advance.

After settling Jiang Yuchuan and Qi Changqing in, Lu Jingchen immediately sent a message by carrier pigeon to the Third Prince about Lu Xuan's assassination and the involvement of the Tianyi Sect.

If the mastermind behind the assassination of Lu Xuan is indeed a prince, then this prince is highly likely to be colluding with the remnants of the Tianyi Sect!

Now that the Lu family has aligned themselves with the Third Prince, they are now bound by a shared destiny. Therefore, any discoveries must be reported to the Third Prince immediately so that he can prepare and take appropriate countermeasures.

Meanwhile, back in his study, Lu Xuan also released a carrier pigeon through the window.

On the desk in front of him, besides the letter paper, brush, and inkstone, there was also the porcelain vase that Jiang Yuchuan had given him as a congratulatory gift.

As he gazed at the carrier pigeons flying away into the night sky, Lu Xuan's gaze gradually became distant and profound.

This tense atmosphere did not affect Jiang Yuchuan and Qi Changqing.

After returning to their room, the two began to cultivate.

More than half a year has passed since Jiang Yuchuan entered the Foundation Establishment stage. At this moment, the Azure Spirit in his Qi Sea has grown its third leaf.

According to the "Qingyuan Creation Manual", every two leaves that a Qingling grows after transforming into human form represent a breakthrough in a minor realm.

Once it has grown six leaves, which means it has broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, a flower bud will grow at the top of Qingling. After the flower bud fully blooms, it can begin to prepare for breaking through to the Golden Core Realm.

According to Jiang Yuchuan's prediction, it will take at most four more months for him to condense the fourth leaf and officially enter the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

The seed of the Golden Silk Green Thunder Vine, which he had nurtured in his Qi Sea long ago, was still happily circling and dancing around Qing Ling, and its size remained unchanged.

Jiang Yuchuan wasn't in a hurry, after all, it was normal for such a ferocious ancient creature as the Golden Silk Green Thunder Vine to be difficult to hatch.

Even if he were to hatch the Golden Silk Green Thunder Vine now, with his Foundation Establishment stage strength, he probably wouldn't be able to summon it, let alone use it to fight.

Although he is unable to hatch and use the Golden Silk Green Thunder Vine with his current cultivation level, it doesn't mean that other plants are also unsuitable.

After cultivating the "Azure Origin Creation Technique", there is no limit to the number of spiritual plants that can be nurtured in his Qi Sea.

The Golden Silk Green Thunder Vine is her natal magic weapon, and that cannot be changed. However, she can accept any other spiritual plants used for support, as long as she likes them.

However, Jiang Yuchuan did not want to treat his Qi Sea as a field and fill it with plants.

Adhering to the principle of "better to have none than to have something bad," he only selects plants that are useful to him or that have magical effects before nurturing and cultivating them in his Qi Sea.

After Jiang Yuchuan finished his cultivation inside the Spirit Pearl, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he went to the Spirit Spring and took out the ring-shaped jade pendant that had been soaking in the spring along with the jade hairpin.

Seeing that the jade pendant was much more lustrous than before and contained a trace of spiritual charm, Jiang Yuchuan nodded in satisfaction.

This jade pendant was intended as a gift for Qi Changqing, so it didn't need to be soaked in the spiritual spring for too long.

With Qi Changqing's mortal body, the jade pendant in this form could be activated by his internal energy.

Jiang Yuchuan placed the jade pendant on his palm and slowly channeled his spiritual energy into it.

Since the jade pendant had not yet transformed to the standard of a spiritual artifact, it could not withstand too much spiritual power, so Jiang Yuchuan quickly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, he put two fingers together, gathered spiritual power at his fingertips, and began to inscribe runes on both sides of the jade pendant.

The runes on the front can be activated actively to become attack runes. Once activated, they can draw upon the spiritual power within the jade pendant to instantly conjure twelve azure light arrows, each a foot long and as thick as a finger.

These light arrows were the same method he used to kill the alligator dragon before, but they were much more powerful and faster.

Based on the amount of spiritual energy stored in the jade pendant, this attack rune can be activated a total of six times.

The reverse side of the jade pendant is engraved with defensive runes that cannot be activated actively. Only when Qi Changqing suffers a fatal attack that he cannot avoid will these runes appear, forming a protective shield that can deflect the attack.

However, due to the limitations of the jade pendant's material, the amount of attack power that this light shield can reflect and block is limited.

According to Jiang Yuchuan's estimation, this light barrier can only withstand one full-force attack from Xuanxi at most.

Jiang Yuchuan felt that this was sufficient.

After all, there are only a handful of grandmasters as powerful as Xuan Xi in the entire world, and it is almost impossible for such people to have any enmity with Qi Changqing.

After engraving both runes, Jiang Yuchuan made a small hole in the jade pendant, then took out two red ropes and a strand of his own hair, braided the three together, and threaded them through the small hole, thus completing the task.

The red rope woven into her own hair was exceptionally strong, and could not be cut by ordinary swords.

After doing everything, Jiang Yuchuan returned to his room with the jade pendant.

The morning light was just beginning to break outside the window.

Jiang Yuchuan calculated the time, walked out of his room, and knocked on Qi Changqing's door.

Qi Changqing's voice came from inside:

"Who?"

"it's me."

"—Sir?" Qi Changqing immediately ran to open the door and invited Jiang Yuchuan into the house. "Sir, is there something you need from me so early?"

Seeing Qi Changqing's slightly puzzled expression, Jiang Yuchuan smiled and asked, "What day is it today? Don't you remember?"

"Nowadays……"

Qi Changqing was suddenly shocked, then stared wide-eyed at Jiang Yuchuan, "Today is my birthday, but—how did you know, sir?!"

He was perfectly aware that he had never mentioned the specific time of his birthday to his husband.

Jiang Yuchuan didn't answer the question, but instead handed the jade pendant in his hand to Qi Changqing, saying, "This is a gift for you. Do you like it?"

Qi Changqing naturally remembered this jade pendant; he had accompanied Jiang Yuchuan to buy it.

But he never expected that the jade pendant would end up being given to him!

"I love it! Changqing loves it!!"

Qi Changqing accepted the jade pendant, a bright smile spreading across his face, but his eyes were already brimming with tears of emotion.

In Qingyang Town, there is no custom of giving gifts on birthdays. Therefore, his mother always celebrated with longevity noodles and a sumptuous meal.

The jade pendant that Jiang Yuchuan gave him was the first birthday gift he had ever received.

Qi Changqing wiped away his tears with a smile as he carefully put the jade pendant around his neck.

After Qi Changqing calmed down, Jiang Yuchuan told him the function of the two runes engraved on the jade pendant and how to activate them.

Qi Changqing was both shocked and moved upon hearing this.

He originally thought that Jiang Yuchuan giving him such a jade pendant was valuable enough, but he never expected that the jade pendant would contain such a powerful technique!

With this jade pendant for protection, even if he were to travel the world alone now, he would probably no longer be in any danger.

Qi Changqing knew without a doubt that Jiang Yuchuan must have added these powerful features to the jade pendant himself.

Qi Changqing raised his hand and gently placed it on his chest, pressing the jade pendant against his skin. Feeling the slight coolness emanating from the pendant, his eyes welled up with tears again.
