Experience and things to take note of when adventuring in the wildlands?
Jiang He mused to himself for seconds, quickly recalling his experiences in the wildlands … and realized that it was not much different from going home.
"The reason I feel like going to the wildlands is the same as going home is because I'm so powerful that I'm not afraid of Feral ambushes … Still, I have to change my words a little, or I would mislead other martial artists."
This kind of thing, if people were misled, there was a possibility of death.
After organizing his words a little, Jiang He smiled at the camera. "Actually, the wildlands aren't as scary as everyone thinks. When I first went there … I remember it was the end of August, when the Sky Demon Cult had their eyes on me and sent several assassins to kill me. Now that I think about it, it was really difficult … I was just rank-five pinnacle, but the Sky Demon Cult sent two rank-seven Heavenly Generals."
"I remember it clearly. The weather was gloomy that day, and since I was ambushed so many times, my sleep quality plummeted. I couldn't fall asleep even after two in the morning, feeling anxious, worried, and fearful …"
"That was why I had to strike first, and went to the Ningdong Mines to attack and kill the two Heavenly Generals … eh …"
Jiang He came to a realization at that, and quickly changed his words. "No, that's not right. The first time I went to the wildlands wasn't that day, but a few days earlier. At the time, I just wanted to hunt a few Ferals for meat …"
Jiang He spoke frankly.
From his first trip to the wildlands, where he ran into the wolves and the Sky Demon Cult's elites, to his encounter with the Third Elder, Bound Star, and Brave Star at Mount Helan … all of that was personal experience.
And yet, everyone present was left dumbstruck.
What the hell!
Was he that awesome?
Although Wang Hou had mentioned those things at the press conference, he was not aware of the specifics and merely mentioned it briefly. How could it compare to Jiang He's recounting it right there and then?
In the end, Jiang He concluded, "Actually, I would usually prepare a grill grill, condiments, and other survival necessities before going to the wildlands. Still, I don't recommend everyone to blindly follow the trend, because grilling out in the wild could easily draw Ferals' attacks."
The scene was silent at his words.
It was only after several seconds that someone clapped.
Once the man clapped, there was a wave of applause, and Jiang He was infected by the crowd's enthusiasm.
Then, another reporter asked about Jiang He's feat of wiping out the Sky Demon Cult and stopping the Sky Demon legion, to which Jiang He answered simply.
Later, representatives of the school's teachers and students came up to offer flowers to Jiang He.
Either way, the 'lecture' was going smoothly, but when Jiang He thought about it carefully … he realized that it was not a lecture at all. Weren't lectures supposed to be academic?
Watching as the many Martial Arts Academy students stared at him fervently, Jiang He said before he left, "As everyone knows, aside from being a martial arts newbie and a novice in immortal arts, I am also a farmer."
"I've planted a few acres of land in the countryside and cultivated some spiritual plants with special methods. I'll contact Dean Wu later and send a batch to the Institute of Martial Arts for the students of the Institute of Martial Arts to eat. This is a small token of my appreciation."
Jiang He would not reveal what happened in his farm for the time being, but with his current ability, there was no need to keep many things hidden.
Nurturing spirit plants …
As a cultivator, was it not reasonable for him to plant some spirit land and nurture some spirit plants?
The lecture finally ended around eight-thirty at night. Jiang He sought out Wu Yueru and had her send someone to his house tomorrow to harvest the 'spirit plants', while he took to the skies and returned home.
Just as he reached home, he sensed a divine-tier aura rapidly approaching. Spreading out his divine mind, he found that a divine-tier martial artist had landed right in front of his house.
It was a martial arts elite Jiang He had never met before, and he had come to deliver Jiang He mutated rice and wheat seeds. There were over a thousand catties of mutated rice and five hundred catties of mutated wheat, which left Jiang He in a good mood.
"By the way, Mister Jiang."
The martial artist then took out a sword that was around three feet long and had some rust on it, saying, "Minister Wang asked me to give this to you. It's said that he took it from Wanshou Palace at West Mountain."
"Oh?"
Jiang He's eyes lit up.
So, that was the legacy sword from Wanshou Palace at West Mountain?
Still …
Accepting the rusty sword, Jiang He noticed that it was a little ordinary and plain. The spirit energy on it had drained away, and it was now a useless sword.
If he remembered correctly, someone had contacted him on Warrior Home, claiming that the sword belonged to Heavenly Master Xu, the ancestral master of Wanshou Palace at West Mountain … Heavenly Master Xu was an awesome person, and according to Jiang He's hypothesis and the many legends, he might have become an immortal.
What was the name of Heavenly Master Xu's sword again?
"I remember looking it up online. It seems to be called the Mosquito Cutter? Legend has it that the Mosquito Cutter is an immortal sword … is that true? "
Jiang He muttered as he fiddled with the rusted sword, before asking with a smile, "By the way, where's Minister Wang? What has he been doing over the last few days? I heard that he was preparing to train and cultivate for a while … has he gone to train now? "
The divine-tier martial artist had a weird look on his face.
He stammered for a while before saying, "Actually, before I came here, Minister Wang had already instructed me not to tell you about his injuries …"
"Eh?"
"Did Minister Wang run overseas?"
Jiang He was shocked.
Wang Hou was injured?
No.
Now that the secluded immortal sects, demonic sects, and daemonic cultivators had yet to show themselves and he had repelled the Sky Demons, who in the entire Hua Nation could hurt Wang Hou?
Unless he went overseas … If he went overseas, there were many powerful Emperor Vicious Beasts, such as the Nine-Headed Serpent Emperor and the Titanoboa that lived in the Pacific Ocean. There was also the Giant Adamantine Ape that lived on Skull Island in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean and was once known as the most dangerous Emperor Vicious Beasts on Earth.
The martial artist replied, "Minister Wang did not go overseas. He was injured at Wanshou Palace at West Mountain."
"…"
Jiang He exclaimed in surprise. "Old Wang did mention that there was a floral spirit in Wanshou Palace. Could it have grown to Feral Emperor?"
The Martial Artist explained the situation.
Jiang He was even more surprised then and exclaimed, "You're saying that aside from the rank-eight floral spirit, there is a powerful daemonic cultivator beneath the ground, and its Daemonic Qi alone could injure Minister Wang?"
The martial artist nodded, while Jiang He frowned.
Wang Hou was not that weak, was he?
To injure Wang Hou with just a thread of Daemonic Qi … it would at least be a Convergence-tier Heavenly Daemon … or perhaps even stronger. There was such a frightening being beneath Wanshou Palace at West Mountain?
Suddenly, Jiang He remembered a record he read when he was researching about Heavenly Master Xu on the internet.
It was said that Heavenly Master Xu had slain an evil dragon with his sword and sealed it beneath the Octagonal Well of Wanshou Palace at West Mountain.
Before the Revival of Qi, the Octagonal Well of Wanshou Palace was a famous tourist attraction, and there was an additional fee to view and photograph it.
"Interesting."
Jiang He could not help thinking, 'What is this? A revival of myths? '
With a turn of his hand, he took out several Amoxicillin capsules and Bezoar Detox Pills. "Bring these to Minister Wang. I'll make some time to visit Wanshou Palace at West Mountain."
After seeing off the divine-tier martial artist who had delivered the seeds, Jiang He headed into his farm, took out the rice seeds and started planting.
Having experienced planting mutated rice before, Jiang He could plant it with ease this time. With the help of Dumbo, Trumbo, and the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers, he soon planted several hundred catties of rice.
There was no helping it …
His farm was only nine Mu and limited land, and over a thousand catties of rice would have to be planted at least three times.
Moreover, he had left a small plot of land for item refinement, pellet refinement, and arrays … as well as Heavenly Master Xu's rusted sword.
Jiang He was overjoyed at the sight of the rice rapidly bursting out of the soil. Filled with vigor, he exclaimed, "Damn it, I'm going to farm through the night, no sleep …"
… …
Meanwhile.
Whoosh!
A figure streaked through the skies, flying over the vast ocean and landing at the entrance to a Secret Realm shrouded in an array.
It was the True Habitant of Nine Dragons of the Penglai Sect. He appeared middle-aged and had a gloomy look on his face.
After the True Habitant of Nine Dragons entered the Penglai Sect, the True Habitant of the Penglai Sect immediately noticed him and personally came to greet him, exclaiming in surprise, "Where is Jiang He, Elder Nine Dragons? Could he be unwilling to join the Penglai Sect? "
The chieftain of the Penglai Sect was a short old man.
His hair and beard were all white, but his skin was as white as a baby's with a hint of red. He frowned and said, "That makes sense. With Jiang He's talent and ability, he would definitely be a key figure in the coming calamity, and there would be many immortal sects fighting to recruit him. Even demonic sects might show up, so it makes sense that he would choose another sect."
"Chieftain …"
The True Habitant of Nine Dragons hesitated for a moment before saying, "Jiang He did not join any immortal sect. Our judgment was wrong — his true ability is not True Child but Yuan Spirit. Moreover, Jiang He has mastered a frightening sword array, and his true combat ability is probably Convergence-tier …"
Then, the True Habitant of Nine Dragons told him about how Jiang He had captured him and the chief disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
Furious, the True Habitant of Nine Dragons exclaimed, "This is too much! Jiang He knows that you are an elder of the Penglai Sect, and yet he dares to subjugate you? Even if he could be a key figure in the coming calamity, he cannot be forgiven! "
"Chieftain …"
The True Habitant of Nine Dragons spoke, but the Penglai Sect chieftain flatly said, "You don't have to say anything else. This matter involves the pride of the Penglai Sect, and we naturally cannot let it go. Send word and gather the various elders, and I will send someone to the mundane world to punish Jiang He in three days."
While the Penglai Sect was relatively calm, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was left in shock.
"B * stard!"
The vice-chieftain of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, who was Zhong Yue's father, had even smashed his teapot.
Having a short temper, his rage erupted when he heard that his son had been subjugated and beaten, and he sneered, "Well done, Jiang He. A mere mortal dares to stand against the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?"
Beside him, his wife was a little more temperamental, and frowned as she said, "Brother Zhong, this matter must be considered at length. The Ice and Fire Duality Sword Array is a secret technique of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and only the core elders of the sect have the right to learn it. Even amongst the many True Heirs, only Yue 'er, who is the chief disciple, knows it. How could Jiang He learn it?"
"This matter should be reported to the chieftain at once for judgment."
