Chapter 138: A Day's Progress
tform, Zhuang Gaojian, clad in fine robes, looked down at the battlefield. The Grand Master Du Ruhui, General Huanghufu Duoming, Jiujiang Xuanjia commander Duan Li, and Baiyu Army Commander Heba Dao...For the people of Duoshu City, this day was truly a roller coaster.
In broad daylight, someone dared to challenge the rules of Unredemption City. From the heavens, someone descended, igniting a divine battle.

The uninvited guest was Dan Guo Shen Lingjing, a once celestial prodigy who had ascended to the Guanhe Terrace.
And standing on the side of Bu Xue City, this divine strongman dressed in the attire of a Sin Guard was surprisingly Zhu Weiwu, who had been missing for over a year and was once a renowned figure in Bu Xue City!

Before they could even consider the impact this would have on the city of Unredemption, or what attitude the State of Zhuang would take...
Zhi Wei has already patted his butt and left. He said he wants to travel the world with Jiang Wang from now on, and has nothing to do with Wu Xue Cheng anymore...
What are you pulling my leg
But sometimes, things are just like that. You know he's being evasive, and he knows he's being evasive, but he still does it. And by doing so, he can actually face Zhuang Guo's nitpicking with righteous indignation.
Unless the state of Zhuang is prepared to erase Bu Xiongceng from its maps, how could they possibly come and search it thoroughly
However, everyone also felt that even if Zhu Wei's parting words were just to placate them, they would still hide outside for ten days and a half months at least, waiting for the storm to pass before returning.
After all, in this central region of the Western Territories, the Zhuang nation has become a powerful force that cannot be ignored. Emperor Zhuang Gaoxian is also not a monarch who can be underestimated.
Even if it's just pretending, you should at least try to do it sincerely.
None of them expected that Zhu Wei would secretly slip back into the city within less than two hours after leaving with everyone else.
And at this very moment, he was hiding on the sixth floor of the highest building in Buqu City, with another enemy of Zhuang Guo, Jiang Wang, leisurely admiring Xiao Shu's journey to rush the pass.
In broad daylight, over forty days, from the cultivation of a complete and harmonious state across the five realms, he began to attack and challenge the divine presence.
Such things are very rare, and they are also very much looking forward to the results.

Throughout history, time has been profound. Across the vast expanse of the world, its scope is boundless. As individuals who have already achieved remarkable brilliance on their journeys, these two figures atop the prison tower do not shy away from witnessing the brilliance of others.
It is precisely because they all possess sufficient confidence that they are more willing to live in an era of dazzling stars. Hawks soar into the sky, fish leap in shallow waters, and all creatures vie for freedom under the frosty heavens.
To vie with the stars for brilliance, one truly displays their resplendent nature. To compete with the strong and strive for even greater strength, that is the way of a proud and noble prodigy.
The vast sixth floor had only two people at this time.
Compared to the elegant decor of the fourth floor, the sixth floor is adorned entirely with jade. Green jade, white jade, red jade, purple jade, blue jade... carved chairs, pillars with intricate carvings, beaded curtains, and slender bottles standing tall.
>
Moreover, the presence of intricate patterns engraved upon it gathers and amplifies the essence of celestial energy from this place. The patterns themselves are aesthetically pleasing, seamlessly blending with their surroundings.
It is truly a place perfectly suited for practitioners to live in.
It's indeed not somewhere just anyone can come in.
Jiang Wang was currently sitting upright on a jade cushion, near the window. He held "Volume Thirty-One" of *The History of Carving into the Sea* in his hand, murmuring to himself as he read, occasionally glancing out to look at Xiao Shu who sat meditating in the street below.
These six-story, openwork jade windows with carved patterns are also magic artifacts. They allow you to see outside, but nothing can be seen from the outside in.
"Junior Brother Jiang," Zhu Wei suddenly came over and said, "You said you still had unfinished business, isn't it memorizing this"
Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!
"Ha! How is that possible!" Jiang Wang laughed heartily: "Who could possibly force me to study"
> I think about it too. I casually said, "I see you're very diligent."
"As the saying goes, 'History can serve as a mirror to help us understand gains and losses.' My younger brother loves reading history!" Jiang Wang's eyes sparkled. "Do you like it too, elder brother"
“Hmm.” Zhu Wei subtly moved away, “Perhaps, maybe… a little.”
"Brother, there's a set here..."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Hey, look! It's Xiao Shu!" Zhu Wei exclaimed excitedly and leaned over.
Jiang Wang also turned his head to look.
But behold, on the street afar, Xiao Shu sat alone. He seemed like a clay sculpture, yet his face flushed with purple qi.
That star on the horizon has been shining for several hours, still illuminating the distance in the starry sky.
Given Xiao Shu's five-fecture completeness, it shouldn't take this long to erect the first star tower... Even with meticulous craftsmanship, the framework should have been established by now, and starlight should already be visible.
An ordinary cultivator first builds the framework of the Starry Pavilion, making it stand firm in the depths of the starry sky. Only then do they meticulously carve and refine it over a long period of cultivation.
As Chongxuan did at the Ji's Academy back then, he said "to do" and did it instantly, completing everything in an instant. This was extremely rare, a special case belonging to geniuses.
And with Xiao Shu's talent, even if he couldn't be as gifted as Chong Xuan, he shouldn't be slower than ordinary cultivators. Especially now, time is of the essence for him.
"He had just swallowed a pill, he didn't know what kind it was." Zhu Wei said.
Looking at Xiao Shu's face steaming with purple qi, Jiang Wang seemed thoughtful: "Since Xiao Shu thought of using Bu Xiecheng to buy himself time to attack Shen Lin, he shouldn't have absolutely no preparation... He might have other ideas."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
I looked at it for a while again.
Xiao Shu remained unchanged. The starlight in the sky was still there, and he continued to sit, his purple complexion remaining the same.
Compared to the fickle and impetuous onlookers, he, on the other hand, was unusually calm.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“This is just the first day.” Zhu Wei retracted her gaze and said to Jiang Wang, “You seem to know a lot about Xiao Shu”
"I've only heard rumors about it." Jiang Wang actually knew quite a bit, so he said, "The art of alchemy is the foundation of Dan Guo. Looking at the whole world, there is none better than it. The elixirs produced in Dan Guo have always been synonymous with fine products. Compared to similar-rank elixirs, the price is always 10% higher. And the Yuanshi Danhui is the highest gathering for cultivators in Dan Guo. Every time it is held, at least one super-grade elixir will be taken out to encourage national geniuses."
Ten years ago, at the Yuan Shi Dan Hui, there was a Tian Yuan Great Pill. Before the Dan Hui, Xiao Shu excelled in all the tests. However, the final Tian Yuan Great Pill went to someone else. This year's Yuan Shi Dan Hui features a Li Xi Dan, said to help cultivators refine their spiritual awareness.
With Xiao Shu's performance, this Liushi Dan should have been within his grasp. No one in the entire Dan Kingdom was qualified to compete with him. But this year's Yuanshi Dan Hui secretly favored others. The high-ranking officials of the Dan Kingdom who presided over the Dan Hui said something about considering the overall situation and advised Xiao Shu to wait another ten years...
Xiao Shu's attitude was firm, stating that he must fight and would participate in the Shan Hai Realm Trial to gain more leverage for himself.
But this time, the trial in the Mountains and Seas realm, he gained nothing.
After losing a great deal of resources and having 30% of his soul essence stripped away, he returned to Dan Nation and was immediately disqualified from participating in the Primordial Dan Conference. He wasn't even eligible to compete anymore...
"I suppose this is why he stole the pills and ran away."
Of course, all of this I've said is just information gathered from various sources and pieced together. It may not necessarily be the truth of the matter.
Upon hearing this, Wei Yi nodded slightly. “No wonder I felt you had sympathy for him.”
“It’s more like resonance than sympathy,” Jiang Wang said. “The abuse of power, the trampling of rules by those in power, is precisely why we’re sitting here today.”
"This is cutting off their future, the Dan Guo." Zhu Wei touched his chin and said, "It's unexpected that a figure like Zhang Xun would be so short-sighted."
“The Zhang family is the largest aristocratic family in Dan Guo. The Tianyuan Great Pill from ten years ago was also swallowed by Zhang Xun’s younger brother, Zhang Jing. His current position isn't a testament to him alone as an individual. As the biggest beneficiary, he sitting where he is now must do something for the forces behind him…” Jiang Wang stopped here: “I'm just making a casual analysis, it doesn't hold much weight.”
“Now I understand what you mean. Your analysis makes perfect sense!” Zhu Wei nodded in agreement: “Reading history books wasn't for nothing!”
Jiang Wang glanced at him: "By the way, congratulations to Senior Brother. I heard that on the fifth floor of the Prison Tower and above, only the culprit himself can enter. Not only can you freely enter and exit, but you can even bring me, your junior brother... It seems that Senior Brother holds a high position within the Unredemption City!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“The main thing is to stay hidden.” Zhu Wei said in a low voice, “As two fugitives, it’s not really safe for us to hide elsewhere.”
"Brother, there's something I'm hesitant to say."
"Speak."
Jiang Wang reminded calmly, "By the way, I'm not a fugitive. The Zhuang Nation doesn't have that kind of guts to publicly issue an arrest warrant for a Qi Nation official of such high rank."

Wishing only me...
At this moment, a cold voice came from the door: " Lianheng, Jiang Wang actually dared to appear in Bu Xue City without redemption, openly inciting the relationship between our Bu Xue City and Zhuang Guo. Send an order down, wanted throughout the city!"
In black, Huáng Jīn Mò walked in, put away the transmission box in her hand, and glanced at Jiāng Wàng lightly: "Now it's your turn."
Jiang Wang: ...
>
On the sixth floor, there are twenty-four windows, each with a different carving. Two windows directly face Xiao Shu's, one with Jiang Wang seated in front and the other with Zhu Weiyi.
Huang Jin walked in leisurely and sat down on a large chair made of black jade. She raised her hand to the two people: "Continue your conversation, don't mind me."
Jiang Wang looked at Zhu Weiyi, and Zhu Weiyi looked at Jiang Wang.
Not a single one spoke.
Then, they tacitly began to meditate with closed eyes and still minds.
Sometimes time passes very slowly, like when Huang Jin Mo is sitting beside me.
Jiāng Wàng was completely unable to relax, studying on one hand, observing Xiāo Shù on the other, and chatting with Zhù Wèi Yī besides.
One can only focus their heart and mind upwards, with a calm spirit and intent on the five elements, wholeheartedly devoting oneself to cultivation.
Luckily, there is still the practice of cultivation in this world. It is simple, pure, and fulfilling.
Every little effort will remain in time.
When Jiang Wang woke up, the sky had darkened. Zhu Wei, Huang Jinmo, and I were gone.

He turned his head to look out the window. Under the night, Xiao Shu was still sitting alone, with purple qi swirling around his face, making him particularly noticeable on this night.
Zhi Wei had already warned people, no one in the entire city of Unredemption would dare to disturb him.
From the moment Zhang Xun made his appearance until now, Xiao Shu has remained sufficiently confident and composed.
He must have thought it through carefully before making such a risky choice.
But is that all it takes to ascend to godhood
This is the question that haunts everyone's mind.
The starlight reflected in Xiao Shu's eyes was still bright, shining lonely amidst the stars.
Jiang Wang retracted his gaze, looking at the Divine Star Tower, and continued his cultivation.
He has now established two star pavilions in the distant star sky. One is built at the core of the concept of the Yuheng star, appearing as a blue pagoda. The other is built in the middle of the concept of the Kaiyang star, appearing as an ancient-looking five-cornered small building.
Both star towers were seven stories high, corresponding to the number of stars.
The Yu Heng Star Pavilion has a solid foundation laid by Master Guan Yan, and after a long time of careful polishing, it is already quite complete. The Kai Yang Star Pavilion, under the guidance of Prince Huai, also has very well-fitting carvings.
Of course, cultivation is a long and gradual process, and Xinglou will always have room for improvement.
It's nothing more than diligently accumulating one step at a time, tirelessly pursuing progress without end. Though the fruits of labor may seem insignificant, they ultimately flow into the vast ocean of achievement.
As soon as a portion of Jiang Wang's soul manifested in the Yuheng Star Tower, the ancient sea dragon suppressed at its base sensed it.
Its scales bristled, it convulsed violently, and the chains rattled as it thrashed. Its horns slammed relentlessly against the stone walls.
It's a pity that the means left by the Jade Ruler are impenetrable. No matter how hard He struggles, there won't be any substantial changes.
Jiang Wang landed on the bottom floor of Xing Lou. He lowered his head and looked at the old dragon struggling in the stone cell through the gradually transparent stone slabs. There was no expression on his face.
"Ginger brother! Ginger brother!"
Jiang Wang hadn't descended in his soul form for a long time, mostly relying on remote sensing from the Star Pavilion. He would use starlight in the mortal world to refine and cultivate himself.
Morio Hayashi's long-accumulated passion was burning fiercely: "I've spent day and night pondering, sifting through my memories, recalling a wealth of useful information. I have a momentous secret to tell you!"
He roared with excitement, "This concerns the most profound secrets of this world, and whether you will be able to achieve enlightenment and become a true immortal in the future!"
This is so tempting!
No cultivator would not be curious about the core secrets of the world, and no cultivator would not expect the possibility of achieving enlightenment.
But Jiang Wang only tapped the stone slab with his boot, causing the transparent part to return to its stony state and slowly obscuring Morihaijo's vision.
Let's talk another time, I'm kind of busy right now.
With only such a simple sentence, a thought moved in her heart, and she had already left Yuheng Star Tower and arrived at Kaiyang Star Tower.
The so-called deepest secret of this world, the so-called opportunity to attain enlightenment...
It's impossible to say that I'm not moved.
But Jiang Wang didn't think he had the right to uncover such a secret.
Before the divine has manifested, to consider the True Cave is still quite distant.
He walked firmly at his own pace, not intending to vie for the limelight nor harboring any aspirations of overnight success.
Of course, Sen-ei Ryū's character is also completely unworthy of trust.
Given the old dragon's experience and cunning, since he brought up this topic, who knows what other schemes he has up his sleeve.
Jiang Wang wasn't going to test his own resolve, nor did he want to play mind games with a prisoner. He simply chose to ignore him, giving Lao Long more time to come to terms with reality, and allowing himself to remain calmer.

Have your own broad road, take big strides forward. There's no need to go through narrow paths, for you might lose your way at some point.
Kaiyang, also known as Wuku, belongs to Yin Jin in the yin-yang five elements and is the sixth star of the Big Dipper in the starry sky.
Compared to the concept of Yuheng, it is indeed sharper.
Jiang Wangxian transformed his spirit and soul, sitting cross-legged in this five-sided pavilion. He calmed his mind and then drew starlight like swords!
In the depths of this distant stellar expanse.

Sword light dances around the building, stars bloom like fireflies.

Beauty exists, yet remains unnoticed.
Beautiful yet lonely.
But loneliness is an indispensable part of the scenery on the path of cultivation.
