Chapter Fifty: Uninvited
dn't trust you, so he didn't give me the chance…”Of course, no matter how many reasons there are, it's ultimately a problem.Zhong Xuan smiled: “I thought time had passed. Since someone brought it up,...During the excursion to the ruins of Ku Rongyuan, Jiang Wang could be said to have turned misfortune into good fortune, reaping enormous benefits.
In this realm of Tenglong, nothing is more important than purifying one's heart. This introspection gave him greater confidence in clearing away the veil of ignorance.
Of course, the practice itself takes time and diligence.
"This fat man is very cunning, be careful not to be tricked by him."
When Jiang Wang was practicing, the voice of Jiang Yan in the meditation candle suddenly rang out.
"Jiang Yan, the principle of never being apart from close kin, I thought you understood."

“You are me, and I am you. Who is close to whom, have you seen it clearly”
Jiang Wangyu activated his Dao pulse, a dragon soaring forth, and directly leaped into the thick fog of ignorance, too lazy to bother with anything else.
Why did Jiang Yan suddenly remind him to beware of Chong Xuan Sheng
This problem Jiang Wang wouldn't even consider. Some problems, once you think about them, fall into calculation.
Jiang Yan had his own calculations, and Jiang Wang also had his own judgment.
No matter what, cultivation is the root of everything.
He asked himself that he wasn't as naturally intelligent as Zhao Ruocheng, nor as deep-minded and far-seeing in strategy as Chongxuan. He could only strive diligently in his cultivation, grasping at everything within his reach.
Abandon the interference, and don't do some foolish things that others might suspect you of.
No matter what Jiang Yan was scheming, he refused to yield.
Li Longchuan said that Chong Xuan's gift was grand and imposing, this is no exaggeration.

When he first came out of the Heavenly Treasury Secret Realm, he immediately offered a Longevity Fruit to Jiang Wang as proof.
Life span is extremely mysterious. There is a predetermined number in the unseen, yet it is constantly changing and unpredictable. Before witnessing it, there's never a fixed form. Only when witnessed does it become solidified.
There is an ancient saying in the art of divination: "Heaven's secrets come first, and human life is unfathomable."
That's about the profundity of one's lifespan, which is truly mysterious.

Usually, when assessing a person's lifespan, it's more accurate to consider it as a range rather than a precise number.
For example, Zhang San is a young and strong man in his thirties. Someone with a bit of insight can tell that his lifespan is at least fifty years or more. But without proper care, it's unlikely he'll live to eighty.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
While some experienced doctors could see that Zhang San's Qi and blood were slightly deficient, meaning he probably wouldn't live past sixty, there was no problem with him living to be thirty.
Those who are more powerful practitioners can penetrate Zhang San's physical details, thus narrowing this range to see between forty and fifty.
For example, when the national teacher of Youguo first saw Jiang Wang, he knew that his lifespan was dwindling, and this was the reason.
While some ordinary people may know their "imminent death" before they die. This is the body's feedback to itself, this deadline, is destiny.
But one's destiny is not immutable.
The same person, raised in luxury and abundance, will naturally live longer than someone who experiences frequent hunger and deprivation.

A cultivator who takes elixirs and feasts on delicacies is also governed by this principle. For example, pills of longevity and fruits of immortality are all like this.
But the heavens have their order, and human life is finite. These kinds of longevity wonders can only be taken once; taking them multiple times is useless.
Even if a longevity pill that extends life by one year is taken and proves more effective, extending life for three, four, or even five years, it will no longer have any effect.
For example, Jiang Wang had consumed a longevity fruit that added twenty years to his lifespan. After that, any other longevity fruits would have no effect on him.
This avoids the possibility of longevity artifacts being completely monopolized by some peerless experts, because a monopoly is useless to themselves.
Therefore, the national teacher Zhao Cang of Youguo bestowed upon Jiang Wang a Longevity Pill that extended one's lifespan by a year. His intentions were quite subtle. For ordinary people or even ordinary cultivators, an extra year of life would certainly be a good thing.
But with Jiang Wang's potential, he will have every opportunity to acquire better longevity pills in the future. However, after taking this one-year longevity pill, his hope of increasing his lifespan through this path is cut off.
When Jiang Wang arrived in Qi, he gained more experience and understanding. Looking back after his journey, he finally understood the matter.
Life is limited, this limit was explored by the sages long ago, it is exactly one hundred and twenty-nine years and six months.
This is indeed a record, the longest lifespan ever recorded for an ordinary person who has not practiced cultivation or taken any longevity elixirs.
And what is meant by extraordinary is transcending the power of ordinary people, yet it's difficult to break the limit of human lifespan.
What sets practitioners apart is that they are physically healthy and strong, resistant to disease and able to approach their lifespan with relative ease. Ordinary people, however, find it difficult to live past ninety.
Cultivators have a greater chance of encountering longevity treasures, but the dangers encountered in cultivation that can shorten one's lifespan are also something ordinary people rarely encounter. Some injuries may be irreparable, so from the perspective of longevity alone, some cultivators might not be as good as ordinary people.
Speaking of the cultivation itself.
Even when practitioners reach the outer courtyard realm, they will still suffer from the hardships of declining qi and blood.
Even someone as powerful as Ji Cheng, who had once reached the peak of the outer courtyard, would suffer from injuries and age, leading to a decline in both his qi and blood. His cultivation would regress, and three of the Four Holy Lounges would be extinguished.
If I hadn't gritted my teeth and persevered, I probably wouldn't have even made it to the Battle of Qiyang.
Only after reaching the divine realm can one lock their blood and essence, solidify their true nature, be known as a golden body with jade marrow, and have an indestructible physical form. Until death, they will not suffer from the decay of blood and essence. Until death, they can maintain their peak state.
In ancient times, the realm where the gods resided was once called the Immortal Realm. The reason for this name is quite clear.
At the realm of divine presence, practitioners can effortlessly live beyond their lifespan. This realm is also considered the true breaking of human limitations on life expectancy, "I am like a god descending," refers to more than just power.
In the ancient times of yore, chaos reigned supreme. Even with the presence of gods, safety was far from guaranteed.
The legend of immortality lasted until...the first invincible, disease-free and peerless Divine Realm strongman died at the age of 518.
That person maintained a body of gold and jade throughout their life, but at the moment of death, they instantly aged and crumbled.
The immortal realm became a false immortality.

Without going into higher realms, when Jiang Wang traveled through the ruins of Ku Rong Courtyard, he questioned his true self. After solidifying his Dao heart, he looked inward and realized his regret—he needed to compensate for the lifespan lost due to the use of the Bai Gu Dao's demonic arts, making up for his "human lifespan limit."
This doesn't mean that he can't make further progress just because this "regret" isn't filled. It means that his future cultivation will be comparatively more difficult.
But what can increase one's lifespan are all precious treasures. Chongxuan Sheng's life-extending fruit back then was also a stroke of luck. When he went to seek the fruit to make friends with Jiang Wang, he didn't actually have much confidence himself.
Precious things in the world are hard to come by, so for now, just keep them in your heart and wait for the right opportunity.
It was a rare occasion to have spent two days in such peaceful tranquility. Cultivation, cultivation, cultivation.

The Xiashan hot springs welcomed an uninvited guest.
The gift arrives first, while the person is still on their way.

Gold and silver, jewels and precious stones, these things amount to eight chests, it's nothing to boast about.
The land deeds and pharmacy shop deeds listed on the main gift list are paramount—these are things that the newly formed De Sheng Chamber of Commerce desperately needs. With the new Yangdi laid out and the market expanded, even with ample food and medicine supplies, it would still not be enough.
Although the Sihai Merchant Alliance also mobilized a large amount of resources, it was impossible to fully satisfy Chong Xuan Sheng's appetite. After all, no matter how big the business in Yangdi is, the lion's share still goes to Chong Xuan Sheng.
A carriage pulled by two demon beast bloodline steeds, driven by a master at the Tenglong Realm.
The two bodyguards who accompanied him were also in high spirits.
The scale is considerable, and the sincerity cannot be faulted.
Present gifts first, then send visiting cards, and the carriage will follow after.
But when this extravagant carriage arrived at the mansion, the gates were tightly shut, and the previously delivered gifts were neatly stacked outside.
No visitors please.
The carriage owner just lifted the curtain.
With a whoosh.
The invitation card, sent out just now, arrived with a flash of lightning and got stuck on the carriage door!ousand-zhang range. This suddenly erupting terrifying sound killing, following the chime of knowing and hearing, ringing dozens or hundreds of times after, with a thorough understanding of Yang's know...
