Chapter 18 - Gu Qing Returns

But what Jiang Chen didn't know was that he was a traveller, with the experience of his previous life, his state of mind was no longer that of an ordinary teenage boy, at least at the Foundation Establishment level, he didn't need to go out and practice.

The honest Jiang Chen was ready to go out and practice.

Jiang Chen's days were very full, every day he would cultivate his Gongfu, practise his sword technique or body technique, as well as the Convergence Technique, and every month, when he reached the end of the first month, he would go to the Spirit Medicine Garden to register, and by the way, he would refine pills again on that day so as not to get rusty in his refining techniques.

The days were full and steady.

Six months later, another year had passed, and it was also the sixth year of joining the Danding Sect.

Before Weapon Peak, Jiang Chen's cultivation at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment had already been concealed, and he was now only a cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining.

"System, login."

"Login successful, reward Xuan Rank Upper Grade Longsword"

Jiang Chen looked at the longsword in the system room, even though the level was slightly higher than his own, his own had already been refined, so at least he wouldn't change his sword during the Foundation Establishment stage.

After Jiang Chen signed in and finished, he was ready to go home and refine pills when he suddenly received a message from Gu Qing.

"Senior Brother Jiang, I'm back, speedy sparrow tiles," Gu Qing's excited voice said.

Gu Qing and Qi Nian had also finally returned after being away for a year and a half.

"The God of Wealth is back, time to go earn some contribution points to spend," Jiang Chen's mouth revealed a few smiles as he rushed towards Gu Qing's courtyard.

As he pushed open the familiar courtyard and looked at the familiar Gu Qing and Qi Nian and Fang Kun, Jiang Chen smiled.

"Senior Brother Gu, Senior Brother Qi."

"Hurry up and come, three short of one" Gu Qing waved her hand and a set of mahjong appeared on the small table, Gu Qing looked at Jiang Chen with a hurried expression.

Jiang Chen obediently sat next to the small table and rubbed the cards, his mouth lamenting, "Aiya, looks like Senior Brother Gu has been going out for more than a year without playing mahjong, huh?"

"Going out, which can be so casual it, or come back well ah, at least do not have to worry about it," Qi Nian still a smiling face said.

Jiang Chen look a few points more serious, "can come back safely is good, you are not in ah, I am a little bit want you ... post points".

"Che, I thought you were going to say what meaty words, contribution points are here, see if you have the ability to take it" Qi Nian atmospheric patted the identity plate on the body, this time out or a large amount of contribution points.

The four of them were playing mahjong while talking about the current situation of some people.

Mostly, Qi Nian talked about what they had seen and heard outside, while Gu Qing was responsible for adding to it, Jiang Chen and Fang Kun were both bitter cultivators in the sect and had nothing to say.

Through Qi Nian's colourful explanations.

Jiang Chen learned that the boundary wall that the Danding Sect was responsible for mending was the boundary wall between the human and demon realms, and that during the mending process, people from the demon realm would constantly wreak havoc on the other side.

The repair of the formation is just to maintain the balance, but the existence of that boundary wall means that the Danding Sect's cultivators can't go to the Demon Realm at will, and the two clans are so deadlocked.

There has also been speculation that these great powers are discussing and organising people to go to the Demon and Devil realms in the next few days to wreak havoc, so that they don't have the heart to organise the repair of the boundary wall.

But this is just speculation, for ten thousand years, the three realms do not interfere with each other, everyone is at most the sea area to meet, from not to cross each other's borders, once the human race first move, it may trigger a war, but do not move, it will always have to be like this to be painless harassment.

"But these things, of course there are those big people headache, we only care about good cultivation, at that time really big war then, can also have a few points of self-protection power," Qi Nian said and began to sigh.

I really hope that these big people can come up with a foolproof plan, can retreat without a battle is the best, but unfortunately, this is all extravagant hope ah.

Jiang Chen, a person who hadn't even left the sect, who naturally had no right to speak, suddenly asked.

"You came back this time to prepare for the breakthrough to Jindan, right?"

Gu Qing and Qi Nian nodded coincidentally, the two of them were already at the peak of Foundation Establishment cultivation, one step short of Jindan cultivation, and they had come back this time to break through to Jindan.

"Oh, in that case, we'll have to play a few more rounds today, you don't know when you'll be able to come out of this retreat," Jiang Chen said seriously.

The three of them looked at each other and laughed.

"That's right, we're going to play all night tonight, no one can run," Gu Qing said, the corner of her mouth turning up.

"Run, why run, come on, let's see if your contribution points are enough for me to win," Jiang Chen also started to talk big.

Men can't get along without bragging and talking big.

The next day, the first rays of sunlight shone into the small courtyard.

With a wave of Gu Qing's hand, the sparrow tiles on the small table all disappeared.

"Today, we're going to prepare for a closed-door breakthrough, I hope that when the two of us come out of the closed-door, we'll be able to see the two of you break through to Foundation Establishment."

Jiang Chen and Fang Kun nodded their heads.

When they returned to their small courtyard, Jiang Chen started refining pills and cultivating again.

The Breath Fusion Technique had already been cultivated to the ninth and final level.

Unfortunately, the Breath Convergence Technique was only a lower Xuan Rank technique, and the cultivation level it could hide was only below YuanYing, and the cultivation level of HuanShen and above would be able to reveal Jiang Chen's true strength.

Jiang Chen was ready to go back to the hidden scripture cabinet to see if he could enroll in a higher level technique, the cultivation world was too dangerous, and it was safest to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.

After a year had passed, it was also Jiang Chen's seventh year in the Danding Sect.

Jiang Chen, who had three spiritual roots, finally built his foundation and became a disciple of the Danding Sect.

Although Jiang Chen had the cultivation speed of a double Spirit Root with his three Spirit Roots, he was only diligent, so naturally he didn't attract the attention of the elders, and no one took him as a disciple.

He was just an ordinary cultivator at Dan Peak, a cultivator who appeared to be at the first level of cultivation, but was actually at the sixth level of cultivation.

The difference between a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment level and a cultivator at the Refinement level was probably that the quests he did would earn him more contribution points.

There was also the advantage of being able to ask the elders at Dan Peak if you had any doubts, but that also required contribution points.

Jiang Chen thought that it was reasonable, after all, if they didn't want the contribution points, many people would go and ask about trivial matters, and wouldn't that be a waste of the bigwigs' time?

After Jiang Chen hung the new ID tag on his body, he turned around and went to the scripture pavilion.

"System, login."

"Successfully logged in, rewarded with a Xuan Rank Upper Level Sword Technique ..."

It was similar to the sword technique he had learnt before, Jiang Chen just stored this technique in the system space.

Then it was time to move from the inner gate to the East Dan Peak, there were many disciples within the Danding Sect gate, and most of the disciples were good at refining pills. Therefore, there were a total of two Dan Peaks within the Danding Sect, and to differentiate, one was the East Dan Peak and the other was the West Dan Peak.

Jiang Chen took one last look at the small courtyard where he had lived for seven years, a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes as he turned to leave.

At the foot of East Dan Peak, there were currently three young men, two Jindan cultivators and one Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Senior Brother Gu, Senior Brother Qi, Fang Kun," Jiang Chen said in greeting.
