Chapter 124 In Order to Capture, One Must Let Loose
In the living room of the Jiang family, after the dining table became a mess, Jiang Ping let Li Sushang take the three little girls to take a bath.
After washing up, Jiang Ping spent a lot of effort coaxing the three little girls to bed.
Then, he returned to his room and summoned the system with a thought.
[Cultivation Completion Signing System)
[Name]: Jiang Ping
(Cultivation Realm): Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm
(Cultivation Method): Great Void Celestial Technique
[Technique]: Nirvana Palm, Wind Spirit Sword Technique
[System Version]: 1.0
[Today’s Signing Reward: Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact, Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Disk]
Jiang Ping complained in his heart that the random rewards given out by the system were too random when he signed in.
More than ten days ago, it had been giving out spirit stones. But today, it had given him an immortal artifact. The difference was too big.
He looked at the introduction of the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Disk.
(Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Disk: After using spiritual energy to activate it, you can control the five elements, eight gates, and eight trigrams to fight. Moreover, the eight trigrams disk has the effect of setting up formations and casting spells. It can set up to a thousand formations…]
Feeling that it was a good thing, Jiang Ping put the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Disk away into his storage space. Just as he was about to shut down the system, a notification popped up.
(Continuous Signing Reward: Cultivation Method Category (Ancient Divine Technique, Spiritual Chaos Sword Technique, Resurrection Lily Technique)]
Damn it!
Jiang Ping was shocked. This was his precious system, and it was simply spoon-feeding him.
Ever since the three little girls had entered the refinement realm, Jiang Ping had not found a suitable cultivation method, so he did not bring them along to cultivate.
This time, not only did he receive cultivation methods, but it was also customized by the system. This was too considerate.
It seemed that he had to find time to impart the cultivation methods to the little girls.
After Jiang Ping put away the three cultivation methods, he took out three top-grade spirit stones from his storage space. After putting them on the table, Jiang Ping pondered for a while and took out another top-grade spirit stone.
His daughters’ progress was so fast. As their father, he had to work harder. Otherwise, how could he protect his daughters? Therefore, Jiang Ping planned to directly absorb four top-grade spirit stones to see if he could breakthrough in one fell swoop. Because the cultivation method that Jiang Ping cultivated was quite special, he could absorb several times more spiritual energy than ordinary cultivators.
The spiritual energy in Fusheng City was considered thin for Jiang Ping, and relying on absorbing the spiritual energy of Heaven and earth, his progress was very slow.
Therefore, ever since he was in the origin core realm, Jiang Ping had started to cultivate by absorbing top-grade spirit stones. High-grade spirit stones simply couldn’t satisfy the bottomless pit of his cultivation method.
There were four top-grade spirit stones on the table, and Jiang Ping was adjusting his breathing with his eyes closed. At this time, on the roof of the Jiang Mansion, Xu Shi and Feng Qingye were quietly approaching the tiles on top of Jiang Ping’s house by relying on the magical artifact that shielded heaven’s secrets.
Jiang Ping raised his wrist, and the four spirit stones on the table floated in the air.
Then, he sat cross-legged, and the spiritual energy of the four spirit stones materialized and surged into Jiang Ping’s body.
Feng Qingye and Xu Shi arrived on the roof of Jiang Ping’s house like thieves and gently flipped open a tile.
They just happened to witness the scene of Jiang Ping refining spirit stones. Xu Shi was so shocked that he almost shouted. Even Feng Qingye could not help but gape.
Those four sparkling spirit stones were not high-grade spirit stones. Judging from their color, they were top-grade spirit stones.
Top-grade spirit stones!
Xu Shi thought to himself that he knew this kid was not telling the truth at all.
What did he say about painstakingly saving up three high-grade spirit stones? What nonsense!
This kid was great. So high-grade spirit stones needed to be saved when he was treating top-grade spirit stones as if they were snacks?
Then, he used telepathic transmission to ask Feng Qingye. “What do you think? Are you able to beat him?”
Because Jiang Ping was cultivating and had removed the spell that concealed his cultivation, Feng Qingye was now able to clearly sense Jiang Ping’s actual cultivation.
Feng Qingye didn’t use his spiritual energy to reply. He only looked at Xu Shi and slowly shook his head.
Xu Shi thought for a moment and then said to Feng Qingye.
“Then we’ll leave first. We’ll go back to the sect and bring some people over.”
Now, they had no other way.
Feng Qingye agreed with Xu Shi and quietly put back the tile. Then, the two of them returned the way they came and left the Jiang Mansion.
After Jiang Ping absorbed the spiritual energy of the four top-grade spirit stones, he didn’t break through to the earth immortal realm. He just reached the perfect divine baby of the nascent soul realm. However, Jiang Ping was not disappointed. Based on this speed, he believed that he would be able to break through very soon.
Then, he stood up and stretched. He walked to the bedside and lay down. He thought to himself that he would bring those girls to fly kites the next day, so he smiled and went to sleep.
After sneaking out of the Jiang Mansion, Xu Shi first invited Zhou Zheng out. Then, he told him to keep an eye on Jiang Ping’s family tonight. If there was anything unusual, he would inform them immediately.
After saying that, he handed Zhou Zheng a piece of jade and told him that he could contact him once he directly crushed it.
He and Feng Qingye went back to call for reinforcements and would arrive at noon at the latest tomorrow.
Zhou Zheng nodded, and then Xu Shi and Feng Qingye flew off.
On the way to the Jiang Mansion, Zhou Zheng was in a good mood. From what Senior Xu Shi had told him.
Fusheng City definitely has a spirit stone mine. If they were to take over the spirit stone mine for the Tianyuan Sect, it would be enough for him to live a few lifetimes if he could get some small benefits.
The last task at hand was to keep an eye on the Jiang Mansion. Since he didn’t need to be cannon fodder, he was naturally in a good mood.
As he walked, Zhou Zheng suddenly felt a flash of red in front of his eyes. When he focused on it, he realized that Feng Dan was already standing in front of him.
Zhou Zheng said guiltily.
“M-Miss, why are you here so late at night?”
Feng Dan asked him coldly. “The Golden Door Sect’s gate was demolished today, and you weren’t around. I asked the guards who were inside, and only then did I know that you went back to your hometown.”
“I should be the one asking why you are here.”
Zhou Zheng chuckled.
“Didn’t I come back?”
Feng Dan’s expression did not change as she asked again.
“Your hometown is not in this direction.”
Zhou Zheng was stumped by the question and answered somewhat hesitantly.
“Then did I go the wrong way? Yes, my house is over there. Miss, I’ll go home first.”
After saying that, Zhou Zheng turned around and was about to leave.
Feng Dan continued.
“That day, when I came out from my father’s study, I happened to bump into you.”
“I also saw that you, Xu Shi, and Feng Qingye were plotting something just now.” “So you were the one who told Xu Shi and the others that the Golden Door Sect obtained a spirit stone, right?”
Zhou Zheng stopped in his tracks and did not answer. With a flick of his wrist, he was about to crush the jade that Xu Shi had given to him.
Feng Dan saw Zhou Zheng’s actions and immediately took out her God Striking Whip without a word, whipping at Zhou Zheng.
The whip drew a streak of lightning in the air with crackling sounds.
Zhou Zheng didn’t have time to react before the whip ruthlessly hit his head. Then, fresh blood flowed from his head, and his entire body trembled as if he had been electrocuted.
Then, Feng Dan kicked him, completely cutting off Zhou Zheng’s life force. Feng Dan put away this low-grade spiritual artifact called the God Striking Whip. This whip was given to her by her father when she was eighteen years old.
If it weren’t for this whip, even if Feng Dan had the perfect late-stage core building realm cultivation, it wouldn’t be easy for her to kill Zhou Zheng, who was in the middle stage of the core building realm.
Feng Dan pried open Zhou Zheng’s hand, picked up the jade, and walked towards the Jiang Mansion.
