Jiang Yi glanced at the panel; although his lifespan had increased.

But it still couldn't make ends meet.

I need to go look around and see if there are any deals I can get.

... For example, the Merit Hall!

Didn't they say there was some kind of mission? Where are these wicked cultivators?

Firstly, it's to replenish one's own lifespan, and secondly, it's a chance to do a good deed!

Let's accumulate some merit for ourselves and be good people!

As the saying goes--

If you have no enemies, then go find them yourself!

As for his cheap master, it seems that apart from the first time he met him...

Other times!

There wasn't even a trace of them!

They were completely left to their own devices, but--

This is exactly what he was thinking!

Not bad at all!

Fortunately, Nangong Yao had shown him the way before, so he knew where the Merit Hall was.

Jiang Yi went alone, without bringing the Golden Horned Horse!

Nangong Yao treated it well!

I obtained a cultivation technique from a Primordial Alien Race from an elder who raised spirit beasts.

Offerings to the Golden Horned Horse for spiritual practice!

If one cultivates to a high Realm/Boundary, one can be comparable to a great Realm/Boundary.

It might even evolve back to its ancestral form once more, potentially transforming its bloodline!

Shedding its single horn, it has been replaced with dragon horns!

Become a true dragon horse!

Merit Hall!

Jiang Yi was dressed in white, with a tall and straight figure, handsome features, and distinct angles.

Within the Phoenix Heaven Ancient Sect.

He is now a household name, known to everyone.

Many of the disciples saw him!

They all bowed and greeted him.

They even took the initiative to make way for Jiang Yi.

There were also some female disciples!

Her eyes sparkled with a mixture of emotions, seemingly shy and hesitant, yet she kept glancing at him—

She kept throwing herself at him.

Those who were a little bolder dared to take tiny, quick steps forward!

He first gave a curtsy!

Then, her red lips parted slightly, and she spoke softly and gently.

Or perhaps--

With a seductive air and a delicate, sweet demeanor, she spoke softly.

"Greetings, Emperor Son Jiang!"

"Hmm~~~"

This made the other disciples grit their teeth, and both the men and women cursed her as a vixen.

However, the former added another thought to himself, and secretly exclaimed,

"Release Emperor Son Jiang... Let me handle this!"

Jiang Yi nodded in response, his expression calm.

In my heart... it's the same!

Unmoved!

The elder stationed at the Merit Hall is an ancient Celestial Person being!

He didn't put on any airs, and looked at Jiang Yi with a smile.

His face was full of kindness!

"I wonder why the Emperor Son Jiang has come here..."

Jiang Yi cupped his hands and gave a slight bow to the elder before him.

He spoke truthfully.

"I want to come and receive the mission!"

"Oh?"

After hearing what he said!

The elder raised his sparse eyebrows slightly, seemingly somewhat surprised.

As far as he knows!

It seems that Emperor Son Jiang has only recently returned to the sect, about six months ago.

There's no rush!

You could easily wait a year to come back, or even say --

You don't have to come!

Rules are rules, but people are living beings, especially True Disciple.

As a descendant of a powerful figure or even a giant within the clan, and the successor to their mantle!

There's absolutely no need for you to come and accept the mission!

It would be better to!

Cultivate yourself peacefully and wholeheartedly in the teaching!

Even if they need to undergo some kind of training, their master will arrange it.

Or they often go out by themselves!

Halls like the Merit Hall are usually reserved for the majority of the sect's members.

Unexpectedly!

Emperor Son Jiang, hailed as having the potential of a Great Emperor and possessing remarkable achievements!

They actually came all this way to get a mission!

This is what surprised him, the elder of the Merit Hall.

Could it be that Elder Chi Yuan didn't make any arrangements?

Soon!

He quickly brought his thoughts back to the present; that official was not someone he could discuss.

He looked at Jiang Yi and asked gently, with a hint of curiosity,

"I wonder what Emperor Son Jiang's current Realm/Boundary is...?"

"Late stage of True Venerable!"

Jiang Yi replied calmly, without revealing his true cultivation level.

Otherwise!

With his current level of cultivation, it's quite astonishing!

"True Venerable... late stage?"

The elder of the Merit Hall nodded subconsciously, but the next moment!

He seemed to snap out of his daze!

He opened his mouth!

He looked somewhat shocked.

Should...

Did I hear that right?

Although he can be considered a Celestial Person, it doesn't mean he is actually "old".

After all, his Realm/Boundary level is undeniable!

He heard it clearly, it really was --

Late stage of True Venerable!

This cultivation speed seems a bit too fast, especially considering his...

A sacred body suspected to be of Chaos Body!

Doesn't that mean we can defy the mortal realm and defeat immortals, even Celestial Person?

That's someone at his level!

Immediately, the elder of the Merit Hall regained his composure and pondered for a moment.

He opened his mouth and said,

"Emperor Son Jiang can go up to the fourth floor and take a look at the mission there!"

The corresponding one!

They're all at the True Venerable Realm/Boundary; perhaps one of them is suitable for you...

"Thank you for your trouble, Elder!"

Jiang Yi nodded, then turned and went up the steps of the pavilion next to him.

The elder of the Merit Hall shook his head as he watched his retreating figure.

He sighed repeatedly!

It's true what they say, comparisons are odious!

Back in the day!

He was also a prodigy, having stepped into the realm of True Venerable!

But it cost him a fortune—

It took 350 years to successfully break through to this Realm/Boundary.

The Emperor Son Jiang before my eyes!

Judging from his age, he doesn't seem to be more than thirty, or even if he is!

That's at most sixty years!

However!

However, he has already advanced to the realm of True Venerable!

Compared to this, it seems like he wasted all those years!

Prodigies and ordinary people!

They are worlds apart, like heaven and earth.

What I didn't expect was...!

Even among geniuses, there are differences, and these differences are significant!

Similarly, it's a world of difference!

Between the two!

It's as if there's an insurmountable chasm separating us!

Compared to Emperor Son Jiang, he was just an ordinary prodigy, while the latter—

He was the most outstanding among the outstanding.

It can be described as --

A peerless genius, a prodigy!

Jiang Yi arrived at the fourth floor, which was different from the first and second floors.

There are only a handful of disciples here, almost countable on one hand.

He glanced at them briefly and saw that they were all at the True Venerable level in terms of Realm/Boundary.

When the disciples saw him, a look of surprise appeared on their faces in unison.

It seems Jiang Yi would come here!

I was a little surprised!
