34: Chapter 34 Mysterious Immortal Secret Realm, Top-Tier Seed (2) 34: Chapter 34 Mysterious Immortal Secret Realm, Top-Tier Seed (2) Who would have thought that before he could even start picking, he would run into Jiang Tang.

And he plucked the Qingming Grass completely bald.

The Blade Sect disciple looked despairingly at the area where the Qingming Grass grew, then turned the same forlorn gaze towards Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang: “…” He made it seem like he had committed some serious mistake.

Producing three stalks of Qingming Grass and handing them over, Jiang Tang spoke with evident distaste, “Take it, take it.”

Blade Sect disciple: “??”

“You’re just giving it to me like that?” He took the Qingming Grass, assessing the quality of the Spirit Plant, and was immediately astonished.

This was of upper third-grade quality, enough for him to concoct the Pills required to enter the Outer Sect.

“Don’t want them?

Give them back then.” Jiang Tang raised an eyebrow.

“Of course, I want them!” Fearing that he might actually take them back, the Blade Sect disciple quickly ran off.

At this moment, Chong Li, who had been deeply asleep, let out a yawn and leisurely opened his eyes.

“Daddy, you are too kind.

People who are too kind and honest tend to be bullied,” Chong Li commented as he watched the disciple’s retreating figure and yawned again.

Jiang Tang touched his nose.

He always felt awkward being lectured by a child.

“Li, I’m going to meditate and practice cultivation.

Now that you’re awake, would you protect me?” Jiang Tang took a candy made of Spirit Grass from his Qiankun Bag and gave it to Chong Li.

“Mhm, Daddy, rest assured and meditate.” Chong Li, holding the candy obediently, landed on the ground.

Once Jiang Tang sat down cross-legged to meditate, Chong Li flapped his wings and erected a barrier around him.

Although Chong Li appeared to be just a fledgling, his strength was not to be underestimated—

He would occasionally close his eyes to rest, yet while doing so, he was also inheriting the legacy of his bloodline.

Since he had grown from the Spirit Field Space, he had directly inherited the abilities of his ancestors’ bloodline—and this was not just bragging.

Chong Li could assure you that, given time, he could become the first phoenix of this era to evolve from the Vermilion Bird and ascend.

Therefore, the barrier he set up was not something that those of exceptional strength could easily breach; ordinary people were basically unable to see Jiang Tang.

At most, they might sense the existence of the barrier.

But now…

The candy Daddy made was too fragrant!

Chong Li nibbled eagerly at the candy, finishing it off in short order.

He lay quietly in front of Jiang Tang, curiously observing him.

Jiang Tang was very handsome, and because he had tilled the land for years, his handsome face had a tanned hue, which made him seem neither like a frail scholar nor a rough peasant.

Like what, then?

Chong Li couldn’t figure it out.

Right then, sleepiness swept over him again.

Chong Li, seeing that the barrier was stable, released his Divine Sense to scan the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger, closed his eyes again to accept the inheritance from his bloodline.

He needed to grow fast so he could protect Daddy with Eryao.

As Chong Li fell asleep, his form and the barrier merged into one.

At that time, two uninvited guests suddenly intruded.

They were a man and a woman, dressed ordinarily but with extraordinary features.

They looked quite young, yet their faces and bodies were riddled with wounds, showing a bit of a disheveled state.

“Yi, they ran away!” The girl gasped for breath, her eyes shining with excitement.

“Don’t worry, big brother will protect you.” The young man stroked the girl’s head, smiled faintly, and then collapsed to the ground.

His back was drenched with cold sweat.

Just now, he had nearly been killed by that herd of wild boars.

If he hadn’t been burdened with this dead weight, he could have run even faster.

But this dead weight had its uses, too.

For instance…

“Yi, here are some Pills for you.” The girl handed over a bottle of Pills with a sweet smile.

“Ling’er concocted them herself, Yi, please feel at ease and take them.”

Her alchemy skills were peerless.

It was a Pill Furnace she could carry with her at all times, without needing him to carry it.

With this in mind, a feigned look of difficulty appeared on the man’s face, “Little sister Ling’er, this doesn’t seem quite right.”

“Oh, brother Yi, Ling’er has already said, all of Ling’er’s Pills belong to brother Yi.

As long as brother Yi wishes, Ling’er can also refine Fourth-grade Pills.” The woman gazed at the man, a trace of embarrassment fleeting across her face.

The man felt disgusted in his heart, yet still, he laughed lightly, “Fine.”

They both sat down on the spot and began to adjust their Qi.

As night fell, stars dotted the void.

Chong Li turned over lazily and opened his eyes, catching sight of Jiang Tang, whose body was consolidating Spiritual Energy.

He promptly sat up.

Father is about to have a cultivation breakthrough!

Eryao had mentioned that father, with the help of the Immeasurable Ancient Jade in secret, was making rapid progress in Body Refinement.

From a mere mortal who couldn’t lift a Spiritual Artifact to a Spiritual Cultivator who could now easily wield an iron shovel imbued with spells.

However, in Chong Li’s view, his own father’s cultivation was really not that impressive.

After a moment, the Spiritual Energy fully integrated into Jiang Tang’s body.

Jiang Tang slowly opened his eyes, which seemed to flash with a spiritual light.

He exhaled a long breath of turbid air, a smile appearing on his face.

The minor achievement of the Seventh Layer of Body Refinement, achieved!

Tch, after tempering his body, cultivation sure is fast.

“Li, thank you.” Jiang Tang looked at the little bird beside him and smiled broadly.

“Daddy needs not thank Li.

Daddy, daddy, Li is going to dissolve the barrier now, be careful,” Chong Li flapped his wings and flew up into the air, his gaze became sharp, and the protective barrier around them immediately dissipated.

The fierce wave of air spread in all directions and quickly reached the man and woman who were meditating nearby.

Both of them opened their eyes at the same time and looked in this direction.

Seeing Jiang Tang suddenly appear, they were first startled and then instinctively on alert.

In such a Secret Realm, Sect disciples follow the law of the survival of the fittest, often attacking and killing those weaker than themselves to seize their treasures.

This fellow is certainly no pushover.

The man narrowed his eyes, only to notice something.

This man, he seems to only have the cultivation of Body Refinement.

And that little bird beside him looks quite ordinary.

Where did that domineering Qi come from just now?

“Umm, I did not mean to offend, I ask for both of your understanding,” Jiang Tang, noticing their tense expressions, silently made a bow and then quietly turned to leave.

Just now, Li had communicated with him through Divine Sense, indicating that there was an extremely precious seed about to appear here.

An extremely precious seed, which is considered the very best amongst the top-quality goods.

One in ten thousand.

This was also the purpose of Jiang Tang’s journey.

“Did not mean to offend?

You make it sound so easy.” The man snorted with a mocking laugh.

“What does the fellow Daoist suggest?” Jiang Tang furrowed his brow.

He was probably going to try to extort him.

This thought was soon confirmed.

“My companion and I came close to cultivation deviation, fellow Daoist, you ought to compensate us with some silver or Spiritual Medicine at least,” the man said with disdain after confirming Jiang Tang was only at the Seventh Layer of Body Refinement.

What a joke, it was only a false alarm.

“Here is a bottle of First-grade Rejuvenation Pills, let it be my apology,” Jiang Tang produced a bottle of Pills and handed it over.

The woman shook her head, about to refuse, but the man snatched the bottle and examined it while snorting coldly, “Just look at your pitiful state, you could only afford such common First Rank Elixirs.”
