Spiritual Energy Rejuvenation: I Began Cultivating By Farming

After the Medicine Sect disciples had left, Elder Liuyue beckoned Jiang Tang to remain and then passed him the stack of Second-turn Rejuvenation Pills he had concocted.

"Elder, what is the meaning of this?" Jiang Tang bowed respectfully, seemingly puzzled.

"Keep these pills and take them with you," Elder Liuyue said indifferently.

"The ingredients for these Rejuvenation Pills were all provided by the Elder; they should be considered as my contribution to the Sect," Jiang Tang shook his head, placed the pills into a bottle, set it on a porcelain dish, and bowed once again. "If the Elder has no further matters to discuss, I shall take my leave."

"Your talent in pill confection is decent. If you are willing, this Elder would promote you to be an Outer Sect Disciple of Water Cloud Peak. Would you like that?" Elder Liuyue saw he was unwilling to accept and did not hesitate to put them away, then promptly extended an olive branch to Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang: "..." How should he put it? He wanted to work his way up steadily and honestly.

Having honestly tended to the fields for three years, Jiang Tang had put away his past arrogance. Now all he wanted was to develop quietly.

After a moment's contemplation, Jiang Tang again cupped his fists in salute: "Thank you for your kind offer, Elder. Knowing my own limited talent, I wish to advance step by step on solid ground, relying on my own assessments to enter the Outer Sect."

Elder Liuyue was surprised to hear this.

Ordinarily, if she extended an olive branch, even the scions of the nine major families would nod their heads without hesitation. This Jiang Tang had an honest nature indeed.

However, she liked it.

With this thought, Elder Liuyue showed a hint of approval for the younger generation on her face: "You may go then. Regarding today's matter, this Elder will inform the Elder responsible for next year's Outer Sect assessment, and add some credit to your record."

This credit was like the extra points in their era's college entrance examination, and these points could be critical at that time.

"Thank you, Elder. I shall take my leave now," Jiang Tang's heart leapt with joy, but he kept a composed face, bowed once again, and turned to return to his own courtyard.

In another location, within a certain courtyard, Du Long was sitting in meditation with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, a man burst in, cursing and swearing as he sat down.

Disturbed from his meditation, Du Long opened his eyes with displeasure but switched to a fawning smile upon seeing who it was.

"Oh, Mr. Hua, what has happened?" Du Long approached and poured him a pot of fine tea, smiling obsequiously.

"It's that damned Jiang Tang! He actually managed to concoct Second Rank Elixir, making us Medicine Sect disciples lose face!" Hua Qing slammed the table heavily, and it immediately turned into a pile of dust.

Du Long: "..." That was his pear wood table worth five hundred taels!

Wincing at the loss, Du Long shifted his gaze and thought about Hua Qing's words, his expression subtly changing.

Because Jiang Tang was known for concocting First Rank Elixir in large quantities and his cultivation wasn't high, so he had unconsciously thought of him as a mediocre medician.

Unexpectedly, he had been pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.

However, on the flip side, since Hua Qing had taken such a fall here at the Medical Gate Hua Clan, if he did not find a good excuse to extricate himself, one could hardly imagine what his fate would be.

Indeed, Hua Qing managed to dig up so much dirt on Jiang Tang thanks to both Du Long and Chu Zuo.

If not for their help in gathering information from all around, Hua Qing wouldn't have been able to devise such a scheme to deal with Jiang Tang.

Though, it hadn't worked out in the end.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead with a restless swipe of his hand, Hua Qing was about to say something when some commotion suddenly came from outside.

Immediately after, a group of people burst in.

Seeing the familiar color of their robes, Hua Qing's heart sank.

He had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

He looked closely and was suddenly startled: "Young Master?"

The ones kicking in the door were none other than a group of Medicine Sect disciples.

Hua Jing walked at the forefront, his gaze fixed coldly on Hua Qing, "Someone, bind them both for me!"

Several Medicine Sect Inner Sect disciples promptly swarmed forward, without discussion they bound Hua Qing and Du Long securely.

Under the soul pressure of Hua Jing, Hua Qing and Du Long trembled as they were tied up, not daring to utter a single word.

Disgustedly glancing at the two, Hua Sheng looked toward Hua Jing and bowed slightly, "Brother Zizhe, how should these two be dealt with?"

"Discipline for Medicine Sect disciples shall follow the Sect's methods. As for him, hand him over to Elder Liuyue," Hua Jing extended his hand and snapped his fingers indifferently.

Spiritual energy from all directions began to shift and in a blink, it condensed into a group of spirit persons dressed in white. The spirit persons stepped forward and took over from the Medicine Sect disciples, each holding onto Hua Qing and Du Long.

Hua Jing took a step forward, heading toward the main hall of Water Cloud Peak, with the spirit persons quickly following.

Seeing this, Hua Sheng's eyes flickered, and he turned his head, thinking of sneaking away.

"Fusu, if I return and don't see that you've begun your meditation, the Medicine Sect's rules will be waiting for you," an indifferent voice transmitted over a thousand miles at that moment.

Hua Sheng: "..."

The rules of the Medicine Sect, that was truly a dreadful thing.

Complex in every way, it seems apart from big brother's brilliant talent, few could ever memorize it.

After hesitating for a while, Hua Sheng was afraid of being punished to transcribe the Sect's rules and decided to meet Jiang Tang some other day, then returned to his courtyard to begin meditation and cultivation.

Their visit this time was to exchange alchemy techniques with the Immortal Sect disciples and seek guidance on martial skills on the side.

If he lost face for the Medicine Sect, what awaited him back home would undoubtedly be a stern scolding from the old man.

Meanwhile, Jiang Tang returned to his own courtyard and suddenly realized something.

His dantian was overflowing with spiritual energy, he was about to make a breakthrough!

Jiang Tang was overjoyed.

After waiting for so long, he could finally break through to the Six Heavens!

Jiang Tang hesitated no further, hurriedly shut his small gate and entered his house, beginning to meditate and cultivate in a seated position.

The moment he closed his eyes, the Immeasurable Ancient Jade emitted a soft white light, wrapping Jiang Tang's entire body within it.

In the Spirit Field Space, Eryao, who was tilling the field, saw the misty spiritual energy turn into a tornado flying towards the void and engulfing Jiang Tang in white light, he was startled at the sight.

It seemed that father had gained the recognition of the ancient jade.

Indeed, the speed of cultivation in the Spirit Field Space was hundreds of times faster than in the outside world. A single day outside translated to hundreds of years inside.

All that Eryao learned and practiced came from his ancestral legacy.

His mother was a direct descendant of the Ancient Snow Dragon lineage, and her legacy originated from ancient times.

As her child, Eryao naturally inherited all of the ancestral legacy—even surpassing his mother in talent, he received even more.

Because of this, Eryao's spiritual intelligence grew rapidly, and all that was embedded in his bloodline became known to him.

Including this Immeasurable Ancient Jade.

Eryao knew these spiritual energies were a great opportunity, which he normally could not touch. Now that he saw his father advancing in rank, Eryao quickly set down his hoe, sat in the air, and began to meditate with closed eyes.

Not far away, Niu was chewing on dry grass, sensing the tumult in the spiritual energy of the void, and its eyes like copper bells slowly looked over.

As if having an epiphany, Niu also leisurely closed its eyes.

Its body, too, emitted a white light identical to that of Jiang Tang.
