Little scattered repair

  The Gao Mansion is located in the northwest of Jiping City, covering an area of hundreds of acres. The Gao Mansion is the most powerful family in Jiping City, and Old Man Gao's 100th birthday celebration was also very grand. The Gao Mansion prepared a seven-day and seven-night feast to entertain the guests who came to celebrate Old Man Gao's birthday.

  In the martial arts hall of the Gao Mansion, 500 eight-person tables were set up, but they were packed to bursting on the first day. No one had expected so many people to come to celebrate Old Master Gao's birthday. The steward at the entrance of the Gao Mansion was rapidly reporting the arriving guests and their gifts, but the queue was still very long.

  Such a grand scene shocked Jiang He greatly, he had never seen such a big lineup! The prestige of the Gao family was so fierce! This made Jiang He want to go into the mansion to take a look.

  Not far from the main gate of Gao Fu, there was another noble gate. Those who thought their gifts were valuable enough could enter through this gate. Jiang He listened for a while outside and had an idea in his mind. He casually drew a water therapy charm and walked towards the noble gate.

  It was also a coincidence that Jiang He met Zhang Lao Da again, who he had seen three days ago, and was now in front of him. The attendant shouted: "Zhang Da Fu, the Flipping River Dragon, presents a thousand-year-old Huang Jing." Immediately, a small servant came up to lead Zhang Da Fu away. Jiang He was surprised in his heart, not knowing how the thousand-year-old Huang Jing that had originally been in Wu Lao Da's hands had changed owners.

  "This is a hydrotherapy symbol. Any injury that isn't too serious can be cured immediately." Jiang He explained with a smile, somewhat worried that the official didn't understand its value.

  The receptionist was startled, and his gaze at Jiang He also became very respectful. He took out a crystal clear glass rod from his pocket, placed it on the water therapy symbol, and instantly the glass rod emitted a deep blue light. Jiang He was also surprised, not expecting that ordinary people could measure spiritual symbols.

  "It's actually a high-quality Spirit Symbol!!" The steward said in disbelief, speaking very cautiously, "I don't know how to address the immortal master?"

  "My name is Jiang He"

  "Master Jiang has brought a high-quality spiritual symbol." The manager shouted loudly, and immediately a beautiful maid came to lead the way. This maid was only fifteen or sixteen years old, extremely pretty, but her expression was very humble and obedient, completely without the spirit of the young girls in Jiang's original world.

  The maid led Jiang He to a grand hall, where the interior was luxurious and elegant. There were only about ten tables inside. The maid brought Jiang He to an empty table and said: "Immortal Master, this is the banquet hall for receiving distinguished guests. Please wait here for a moment, and the feast will begin soon."

  Jiang He nodded, his eyes scanning the hall to find that there were already forty or fifty people present. Among them, six or seven were cultivators of immortal techniques, but their cultivation was very low, with the highest being only at the seventh layer of the Qi Refining stage. Cultivators who reached the ninth layer of the Qi Refining stage and broke through the restriction of the Heavenly Law could sense the realm of cultivators whose cultivation was lower than theirs.

  And others are majestic guests with a long breath. Jiang He estimated that these people should be the same as Zhang Da Fu, who is a martial artist in the mortal world.

  According to Jiang He's limited understanding, in this world, only one or two out of a hundred people have the physique for cultivating immortality, so cultivators are very rare. Cultivators absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth to improve their cultivation. As for ordinary people who cannot cultivate immortality, there is another path of cultivation, which is to cultivate their own bodies. Such people are called martial artists.

  Martial artists cultivate not only their physical bodies, but also the innate energy hidden within. This is called internal power. When internal power reaches its peak, it can possess extremely powerful strength. A formidable martial artist may attain the strength of eleven fierce bulls, a power known in the mortal world as the Nine Oxen and Two Tigers' Power.

  In his body, he possesses the strength of over three hundred fierce bulls. In these three years, his control and perception of power have reached an astonishing degree. He can clearly perceive that the strongest among these warriors is only equivalent to four fierce bulls in terms of strength.

  Apart from the monks and warriors, the rest were ordinary people with smiles on their faces. They wore luxurious clothes and had an air of wealth about them.

  These three types of people were separated. Jiang also noticed at this time that the more than a dozen tables in the VIP hall had been cleverly divided into three parts. The one led by the maid was next to the table where several monks sat. These large tables, each with ten large chairs, were round tables. All the monks sat down in front of a round table, on which various fruits and snacks were placed.

  Jiang Wei arrived and immediately overheard the private conversation of those people.

  "Yun Xiao, Shixiong, do you recognize this person? Looking at his young age, how can the aura on him be so strong?" A cultivator in the third layer of Qi Refining asked another cultivator. This cultivator looked to be only around thirty years old, but had an extraordinary air about him, a true immortal's demeanor that surpassed even Jiang and the elders of Tianfeng Sect he had met before. However, his cultivation was not high, only at the eighth layer of Qi Refining.

  The cultivator known as Yun Xiao furrowed his brow and said, "I've never seen him before either. I also feel that the aura on his body is extremely powerful, so don't provoke him. Tong Xuan, you have a wide range of connections, do you know this person?"

  Another Taoist said: "I have never seen it before, but looking at this person's young age, his cultivation is deep and immeasurable. Could he be a disciple of some sect?"

  Yun Xiao nodded and immediately stood up, rushing to Jiang He and smiling: "Fellow Taoist, may I invite you to our table to discuss the way of cultivation together?"

  Jiang smiled slightly and said: "Alright, I was just feeling a bit lonely by myself." He then sat down with these people.

  "A narrow path in the clouds, I don't know where you come from, how should I address you?" Yun Xiao smiled and said.

  "Tianfeng Sect's Jiang He, you can just call me Jiang He." Jiang He smiled.

  "Yun Xiao has met Jiang Shixiong." In the cultivation world, seniority is not determined by age, but by cultivation level. Those with higher cultivation levels are considered seniors, and Jiang He's cultivation level was stronger than theirs, and he came from the Tianfeng Sect of the Xianmen, so it was normal for these people to call him "Shixiong".

  "Tong Xuan has met Jiang Shixiong"

  "Zhan Nian has seen Jiang Shixiong"

  ……

  These people all came to pay their respects to Jiang He, who smiled and responded in kind. After the formalities were over, everyone became a bit more familiar with each other and started discussing some interesting things they had seen and heard. Jiang He just smiled and nodded along, but from these people's conversations, he also learned quite a few taboos of the immortal cultivation world.

  As time passed, more and more people gathered in the VIP hall. Among them, the majority were martial artists. At first, these martial artists could still converse quietly, but later on, they started cursing one another, all of whom were cursing the Shun Tian Alliance. Jiang He listened attentively to their conversations, gathering information, and managed to understand some of it. It turned out that the Shun Tian Alliance was using the name of "upholding justice" to hunt down those martial artists who had committed evil deeds.

  There were also thirteen monks who came to congratulate. Jiang He couldn't help but feel strange and asked, "Yun Xiao Dao You, I came here to congratulate Gao Tai Ye, just because of the face of a few fellow disciples, and coincidentally caught up with you. You are also monks pursuing the Tao of immortality, why did you come to congratulate him?"

  "I suppose Jiang Shixiong has been cultivating in the sect for many years and doesn't know about things outside," Tongxuan said with a smile.

  "That's right, exactly."

  "That's right, Jiang Shixiong is a disciple of the Dà Mén Pài sect, and they have access to all sorts of cultivation resources. Unlike us scattered cultivators, who have very limited resources and can hardly cultivate to the 8th layer of Qi Refining in our entire lives. Although we are considered immortal masters by ordinary people, our actual status is quite embarrassing. Those powerful figures and warriors from the mortal world keep a respectful distance from us. We cannot lower ourselves to work like ordinary people, and sometimes we even face the predicament of going hungry while cultivating. Therefore, we have prepared some items that cultivators can use as gifts, hoping to receive support from the High Manor, so that we can cultivate in peace."

  That Tong Xuan is eloquent, but once he mentioned this, he also felt a little sad.

  Jiang He Ting came, but it was somewhat hard to believe, and said: "But you have the power, I don't believe it. When you're hungry, won't you take action to rob? If it were me, maybe I would go to those wealthy families to take some money for use."

  Tong Xuan smiled wryly and said, "Brother Jiang, your cultivation is profound, unlike us. We are just small scattered cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, 4th or 5th layer, whose power can't even compare to that of a strong martial artist. Once we make our move and those people report it, the authorities will send martial artists to capture us."

  Jiang and Mo Ran were silent. A cultivator of the fourth layer of Qi Refining, but with the strength of two fierce bulls, would be enough to surround and kill even a hundred-man squad of soldiers, let alone a warrior. And these scattered cultivators, most of whom had poor innate talents, although they could cultivate immortality, were not accepted by any sects and could only rely on some external methods passed down to cultivate on their own. With poor innate talents and no guidance, the situation was naturally pitiful. In comparison, his own situation was actually quite good.

  "Haha, don't mention those unhappy things. We're already far ahead of others just by having the chance to cultivate. What's the point of complaining here? Pursuing the Dao of Immortality is going against heaven's will from the start. If you don't have the determination to overcome difficulties, then why bother cultivating? Go home and farm instead." Cloudy said with a smile.

  When Yun Xiao spoke, the low and gloomy atmosphere around the table dissipated, and everyone's face showed a determined expression. Jiang was shocked in his heart, such a loose cultivator with unyielding determination, if he succeeded in cultivation, would definitely surpass the disciples of the sect.
