"Palace Master Tian, our Young Master invites you!"
Two immortals from the Jiang family walked up to Tian Chan and said respectfully.
The number of immortals in the Jiang family had more than doubled compared to before, all thanks to Jiang Che's longevity pills.
You see, the Jiang family had many old monsters in the Half-Immortal realm who had sealed themselves within Immortal Source because they couldn't break through to the Immortal realm. Almost all of them had done so because their lifespans had dried up, making them unable to survive the Immortal Tribulation...
But after Jiang Che gave them the longevity pills, the lifespan issue was easily solved. Your lifespan now depended on the size of your appetite.
With no worries about their lifespans, surviving the Immortal Tribulation was naturally not a big problem.
Tian Chan remained silent. She could clearly sense that... the two people in front of her had only just stepped into the First Tribulation Immortal realm, yet their lifespans were terrifyingly high, reaching a full hundred thousand years or more!
Generally, a Third Tribulation Immortal Lord in their prime would only have about this much lifespan.
As for whose doing this was... did she even need to think about it?
"Alright."
She had roughly guessed it. Perhaps the method of refining these longevity pills wasn't that difficult, otherwise, Jiang Che couldn't possibly refine millions and tens of millions of them.
If she could bring the price down, then she could distribute the pills to the many participants from the Nine Heavens.
"By the way, Palace Master Tian, after entering the immortal boat... do not sweep your divine sense around carelessly. If you see something you shouldn't... even if you are an Immortal Venerable, I'm afraid..."
Tian Chan frowned. How interesting... two lowly First Tribulation Immortals actually dared to threaten an Immortal Venerable like her?
After entering the immortal boat, Tian Chan's eyes narrowed. She seemed to sense a very familiar aura, as if an old acquaintance had come.
But she didn't think much of it and just followed them into the immortal boat.
This Realm-Breaking Immortal Boat was indeed the most luxurious immortal boat she had ever seen, bar none!
She had inherited the broken legacy of the Ancient Heavenly Court, which contained a giant warship. The warship's imposing manner was majestic and terrifying. As a former immortal ship of the Ancient Heavenly Court, it was definitely a top-tier Sixth Tribulation Immortal artifact!
But even an immortal ship of that caliber was far less luxurious than Jiang Che's Realm-Breaking Immortal Boat.
"Could it be... has Jiang Che already obtained the other half of the Ancient Heavenly Court's legacy?" Tian Chan frowned!
Jiang Che originated from the mortal realm, and according to the deductions of many experts in the Nine Heavens... the entrance to the true treasure of the Ancient Heavenly Court was in the mortal realm. It was just that the mortal realm had previously severed all connections to heaven. Except for high-level immortals who could cross realms... it was absolutely impossible for other immortals to descend to the lower realm.
But which true high-level immortal would risk crossing realms?
Furthermore, Jiang Che had previously brought out an Immortal Binding Rope. Although many artifact refiners in the Nine Heavens were currently imitating this type of immortal artifact... the one in Jiang Che's hands was a Sixth Tribulation Immortal artifact!
All these signs indicated that Jiang Che must have already obtained the complete Heavenly Court Token.
"But you already sit on countless spirit stone resources... why are you still so obsessed with resources?" Tian Chan was somewhat puzzled. This was like a super billionaire with a net worth of over eighty trillion spending all day extorting the common people.
...
"Alright Zhu'er, your husband really can't do anything about you..." Jiang Che sighed. This little sword spirit was simply too clingy, clamoring all day for man and sword to become one.
Fortunately, Young Master Jiang also knew a little bit about swordsmanship!
"Here, this is good stuff. Consider it compensation from your husband." Holding a seven-colored crystal in his hand, Jiang Che embraced the little sword spirit loli with one arm and fed it to her lips.
"This is?" Li Qingzhu's eyes widened. After the crystal entered her stomach, it instantly transformed into the purest sword dao will. That feeling far surpassed any sword dao divine treasures she had ever seen. She was a sword spirit who had taken human form, and her true body was merely an immortal sword, but now she vaguely felt a sense of transcendence.
"Shh, just take it as your reward. Your young master is clear about rewards and punishments. You've been so well-behaved... you deserve it!" Jiang Che reached out and tapped the girl's nose.
"Oh~" The little sword spirit buried her head into Jiang Che's clothes.
In the beginning, she felt like the sky had fallen. As a dignified immortal sword, she had actually committed a taboo act with a human, and Li Qinghuan had completely ignored it...
But very quickly, her mindset had completely shifted!
"Alright, we have an esteemed guest visiting. You should go first, otherwise that Tian Chan will definitely recognize your identity," Jiang Che patted the little sword spirit.
"Hehe, Husband, when will you conquer Tian Chan too? When the time comes, conquer both Li Qinghuan and Tian Chan!"
"No... don't let a single girl in the Heavenly Dao Palace go. I've been annoyed with those guys for a long time!"
The little sword spirit revealed a little witch-like smile. She was also a lawless little witch in the Heavenly Dao Palace, and because she acted too arrogantly, many immortal palace disciples cursed her wildly behind her back.
......
Tian Chan stepped into the main hall alone.
At this moment, Tian Chan was still dressed as a man. She wore a white robe, a white headband tied across her forehead, and her long hair was tied into a high ponytail that cascadaed down. Her androgynous face bore a touch of bewitching charm.
"I am Tian Haoran. I have long heard of Young Master Jiang's great name!"
Jiang Che sat upright in his chair, with his legs crossed and one hand propping up his chin. He wore a dark robe draped over him, and the buttons at the collar weren't even fastened, revealing his sturdy chest. His whole person looked wicked and uninhibited.
He glanced at 'Tian Chan' and looked her up and down.
Truth be told, Tian Chan's cross-dressing really had a unique flavor.
Although her disguise technique had genuinely disguised her as a man, deep down Tian Chan was still a girl. Even when transformed into a man... her appearance was the delicate and handsome type, even androgynous.
Of course, if Jiang Che hadn't known she was a girl in advance... the result would have been completely different.
"I wonder what business Palace Master Tian has in coming here this time?" Jiang Che spoke in a calm tone.
"Young Master Jiang, you should know my purpose," Tian Chan walked up to Jiang Che.
She had wanted to continue saying something, but her sharp gaze noticed something.
Jiang Che's collarbones were covered in red marks, and the air even exuded wafts of a strange, sweet fragrance. There was naturally no need to overthink what had happened earlier.
"Haha, honest people don't speak in riddles. How many longevity pills do you want this time?" Jiang Che laughed. "I have really taken great pains recently, racking my brains and working day and night to refine pills, and I've only just managed to refine a few hundred million inferior longevity pills..."
A few hundred million inferior longevity pills......
Hearing Jiang Che's words, Tian Chan's scalp went numb.
A few hundred million longevity pills?
Even if she sold herself, she probably wouldn't be able to afford that many longevity pills.
"Young Master Jiang, I want to purchase 30 million years of lifespan from you. What do you think?"
Since the quantity was too large, buying longevity pills was meaningless; she might as well just buy the lifespan directly!
"Thirty million years of lifespan? Do you know how many spirit stones that requires?" Jiang Che raised an eyebrow.
Tian Chan's expression was serious. "The cultivators summoned by the Nine Heavens Evil-Slaying Decree now include over five hundred immortals, and the number of Great Emperor-level experts who have come has already broken the hundred thousand mark!"
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
