Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags - Chapter 297
Chapter 297: Chapter 201: Changing fate, harvesting qi movement seeds!_2
No wonder all the qi movements I previously opened were purple. As it turns out, the highest probability for an intermediate luck seed is purple, followed by blue.
I hope I’m lucky enough this time to yield a golden innate qi movement.
If it’s blue, compared to purple, it would mean a loss of two thousand strands of Luck Power, let alone golden.
Jiang Yuan quietly hoped in his heart, then focused his intentions.
Straightaway, Luck Power poured onto the seed.
After performing this action, he immediately closed the Status Panel, a surprise stirring within his heart.
He initially assumed that even if this action was successful, he would have to wait until Lin Yuqing had truly condensed a flawless Taoist heart to give him feedback.
Unexpectedly, feedback came immediately.
Moreover, the level of this feedback was substantial.
With 488 strands of Luck Power, it was clear this was something extraordinary.
Lin Yuqing curiously asked the people and demons not far away, “Daoist Friend Jiang, did you keep them here to spare their lives?”
Jiang Yuan waved his hand, dispelling the world’s power around him.
“You just asked me if I kept them here to spare their lives?”
He repeated his words.
His response was intended also for Zhou Qiu, Song Que, and the two from the East Sea Demon Tribe.
“Hmm, yes!” Lin Yuqing nodded, “I’m very curious.”
When they heard this exchange between the two, Zhou Qiu, Song Que, and the two sea demons were immediately attentive, their focus entirely on the conversation.
Because Jiang Yuan’s answer would decide their fate.
It was a matter of life and death.
Jiang Yuan noted their rapt attention, so he chuckled: “I haven’t decided yet. I’ll make my decision once we get out of the Pearl Cave! But for now, I may have to restrict their movements. If any of them try to escape or resist, then I’ll have no choice but to execute them on the spot!”
Lin Yuqing nodded, “I see. That works.”
When Zhou Qiu, Song Que, and the two sea demons heard this, they immediately let out a sigh of relief.
If Jiang Yuan wasn’t going to kill them now but would decide after leaving the Pearl Cave,
there would be even less reason to kill them.
The longer he drags it out, the more he would weigh the pros and cons.
The thought of being able to keep their lives brought them boundless relief.
Jiang Yuan noticed their change and smiled.
He had initially planned to kill them immediately. Their deaths inside the Pearl Cave would remain unknown, and no one would trace it back to him.
But then he chose to keep them alive for now to absorb their Luck Power.
Each of these four individuals possesses purple innate Luck Energy.
There are still eight months until the Pearl Cave closes.
Just these four people alone can provide him with about a thousand strands of Luck Power during this period.
This was a great gain.
Compared to killing them now, keeping them alive for the time being is a better choice.
But ultimately, they will be killed. It’s just not the time yet.
Releasing a tiger back to the mountain will only invite disaster unto oneself.
Having settled this matter and putting Zhou Qiu and the others at ease, Jiang Yuan turned his gaze toward the illusory image of the Dragon Palace on the horizon.
Lin Yuqing also noticed Jiang Yuan’s gaze.
“Are you planning to enter the Dragon Palace now?”
In response to Lin Yuqing’s question, Jiang Yuan nodded, “Yes! Since I’m already here, I might as well take a tour and see if there is something that the Saint of the human race has left behind.”
Jiang Yuan then turned to Shu Xiaoxiao and said, “Xiaoxiao, keep a close eye on them. If anyone tries to escape or resist, feel free to kill!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
Shu Xiaoxiao agreed.
Jiang Yuan also said to Lin Yuqing, “Miss Lin, please help me with that too.”
“No problem!”
Lin Yuqing agreed too.
After setting these matters, Jiang Yuan slowly headed towards the seaside.
All eyes were instantly drawn to him.
Including Zhou Qiu and Song Que, who were lying on the ground, they both struggled to rise.
Setting foot inside the Dragon Palace was a dream all cultivators of the Qianyuan Kingdom had had for over a century.
Everyone wanted to know whether the human Saint who had killed the Demon King of the cave, had left anything behind.
If something was left behind, any item would be a true priceless treasure.
Anything remotely connected to the Saint would be of extraordinary value.
Currently, the sea surface was calm and ripple-free, as smooth as a mirror.
This ocean had turned into a dead sea with the fall of the Demon King, never again to produce even a speck of a wave.
Jiang Yuan had just stepped onto the sea surface.
A vast amount of power instantly fell onto him, and his body sank abruptly.
Then, Jiang Yuan adapted to it.
He took note of the force exerted on his body.
Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but be surprised that this force exerted more pressure on his physical body than on his divine soul.
The repression on the divine soul was extremely low, but the repression on the physical body was very high indeed.
He could feel himself moving forward as if he were carrying a big mountain on his back.
With this thought in mind, he took slow steps forward.
On the serene sea surface, he moved forward.
The sea surface reflected his figure.
He walked slowly forward like this.
Two hours later, he had reached the spot where Zhou Qiu had planned to return.
He was already five thousand feet from the seashore.
But from this position, there was still two-thirds of the journey to the center.
“He’s reached the distance you reached before!” Song Que’s voice echoed softly in Zhou Qiu’s ear.
Zhou Qiu was calm: “That’s expected, given his age, he faces more pressure than I do!”
He heaved a slight sigh in his heart.
Earlier, after being defeated by Jiang Yuan in just a few moves, he was seriously injured, close to death.
Only then did he realize that Jiang Yuan’s greatest strength was his physical body, his truly unparalleled physical body.
Such a powerful physical body teamed with his cultivation realm and his age.
In his eyes, actually, there wasn’t much doubt anymore.
Jiang Yuan’s entry into the Dragon Palace was almost inevitable.
He himself was confident that he could make it more than halfway, even two-thirds of the journey.
Let alone Jiang Yuan now.
Meanwhile.
Jiang Yuan moved on the calm sea surface.
The pressure on his body was growing heavier and heavier, as if he was carrying a mountain, a growing, increasing mountain.
More than two hours later, Jiang Yuan was only ten thousand feet away from the shore.
At this point, the pressure on him had doubled since the beginning.
He looked back and exhaled softly.
Feeling the weight of the mountain he was carrying, he realized why no one had been able to cross this sea and enter the Dragon Palace for so long.
Because even he felt some pressure.
At his age, with his physical strength, he could feel the pressure. For ordinary heavenly geniuses, it would be a weight that could crush them.
Not to mention the remaining one-third of the journey.
He then continued on his way.
On the shore.
Lin Yuqing watched Jiang Yuan’s figure in the distance and calmly said, “He has now gone the farthest of anyone to this day!”
Shu Xiaoxiao was somewhat surprised: “Has no one ever gone beyond ten thousand feet?”
“No!” Lin Yuqing shook her head slightly: “Since the appearance of the Pearl Cave, the furthest distance reached has been no more than nine thousand three hundred and fifty-four feet.”
She took another deep breath: “He still looks so relaxed. It seems today, the Dragon Palace of the Pearl Cave will finally witness its first heavenly genius.”
Even though she was mentally prepared.
But Jiang Yuan breaking the furthest record still made her feel a slight shock deep inside!
