Mr. Jiang Dong's list was ready, and he asked Bai Guanshi to collect the items according to it - all the materials of the Immortal Palace that Bai Yuntong had thought of after a friendly conversation.
These days, the little fairy child has been busy poring over dozens of thick volumes. They are mainly books like "Records of Strange Objects in This World" and "Miscellaneous Treasures," used to let him compare ancient and modern wonders, awaken fragments of his memory, and find suitable substitutes.
The white cloud boy visibly turned into a dark-circled child, kind of like an iron-eating beast.
Regardless of whether Yun Ding Xian Gong can return to its peak level, Master Jiang has gone all out. Xu Mo, Yang Zhen, Xu Qiu Ci and the others are willing to spend a lot of money on repairs, so there must be value in it
"Bai Yun, reading more books is only beneficial to you and has no drawbacks. Could your old master possibly harm you"
>
The little boy, Bai Yun Tong Zi, was diligently flipping through the book, not uttering a word.
"Junior brother," Zhu Wei arrived on the floor and sat opposite Jiang Wang. "My marksmanship has improved recently, I want to find a place to train, Yu Yuan went there earlier, so I won't go again. Do you have any suggestions"
After the Battle of Fazuang, everyone who participated in the killing of Zhen benefited.
Wei alone has always been a genius fighter. After such a life-or-death battle, the harvest is naturally enormous.
Jiang Wang looked at him: "Your injuries haven't healed completely. Why are you in such a hurry"
I simply smiled faintly and said nothing.

There are too many people in this world who are struggling day and night. From Lin Xian who has returned home to Zhongli Yan who just left, who dares to relax
I have all the more reason to celebrate.

Danger
Would he be afraid of danger
Jiang Wang couldn't persuade him, and he didn't intend to persuade him any further. He only said: "I will go with my senior brother, and we brothers will join hands and show off our prowess!"
"Furthermore, he said: "At your senior brother's level, ordinary small worlds are traversed horizontally. Ordinary risks and dangers have no meaning anymore. There are only the Demon Realm, Illusionary Realm, Wilderness Borderland, Abyss of Grief, Immortal Cemetery, and Calamity Water."
"The Demon Realm is a land of contention between nations. Traveling alone means you can't grasp the situation and are easily swept up in unexpected events. Uh...most importantly, the demon clan has some issues with me, so I can't go back."
The Great War in the Netherworld has ended. Before his death, Gao sealed this realm to prevent the Gods from entering. However, there are still some special areas within the Netherworld, where there may be true caves and even possible paths of transcendence, as well as weapons that transcend ordinary realms. Your cultivation level is suitable, but you probably won't gain much experience. The opponents inside are either too strong or too weak.
"It's not a good idea to provoke them in such a desolate area. I just erected a memorial, and further provocation could lead to trouble."
"Senior Yu Yuan has already gone. I'm not very familiar with the Immortal Killing Forest, so why not go to the place of calamity I've been there once, it has all kinds of evil views and endless killing opportunities. It's quite suitable for honing combat skills. Of course, it's also very dangerous, with beings who transcend Level One existing there, but they are unlikely to emerge in the short term."
Zhu Wei merely said, "Then let's go to the calamity."
Then it's settled. But I need to run an errand. When I get back, we'll set off together.
>
Of course, Zhi Wei knew that Jiang Wang still hoped for him to fully recover before going out. He just asked, "Where are you going"
Jiang Wangdao: "Qi State."
"You already left Qi and severed all ties, didn't you What are you doing back in Qi"
Jiang Wang looked eastward, staring blankly and saying, "Let's go see old friends and settle some old affairs."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
When going to Qi, Jiang Wang did not bring Chu Yao along, fearing that this child, after returning to Linzi and experiencing its grandeur, would be unwilling to return to Xingyueyuan.
Since he chose to embark on the path of cultivation, all the previous trials and tribulations were laying the groundwork for transcendence. Without a steadfast mind, it wouldn't be beneficial. After all, the path is long and arduous, and the peak is difficult to reach.
When Jiang Wang first met the Emperor in Donghua Pavilion, he told him what he desired.
"Seek the true way of the cave, seek to be invincible as a true person, seek to break through the inner barriers of the heart, and seek to achieve one's desires in this life."
He has sought and found the true way himself.
The barrier in my heart has been shattered in the underworld.
On the road where no one could match him, he was about to take big strides forward.
Please note: The content within the > tags was empty, so the translation is also empty.
Thus, this is what he was born to do.
Immortality bestowed by deities merely refers to a physical lifespan of five hundred and eighteen years that is resistant to decay. True immortality lies in returning to one's primordial essence, attaining the state of witnessing true immortality. This process of witnessing and comprehending true immortality is what constitutes "seeing through" or "realizing" the truth.
Jiang Wang walks the path of true self. This path, though uncommon, is not unprecedented. However, everyone's "self" is different, and every person's journey is difficult.
Although he has already attained the state of "divine clarity," reaching the ultimate limit of divine immersion, and grasped his own self. He also "penetrated the truth of the world," perceiving the essence of the world.
But "understanding oneself" and "perceiving the world" are eternal practices. He only reached a certain stage at a particular point in his life. However, which one is the "me" now and the "me" then Is the truth seen now truly the only truth
If we stop here, that's all there is to it.
The true self he envisioned was not unrestrained freedom, but freedom within limits.

What is owed must be repaid, what is due must be claimed, and what is done must be settled.
Already truly as oneself, joy is also cultivation.
When Master Jiang left Xingyueyuan, he soared eastward across the sky, heading straight for Linzi.
Of course, on the border of Da Qi, he honestly pressed his head under the cloud and registered to enter the country - using a fake name called Ling Dugu, he also bribed some silver.
The ID card is fine. It's not that I need him to pay me to get in, but rather to test the border guard's integrity and take the opportunity to cut the line and use the VIP entrance so I don't have to wait long.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
In fact, human nature cannot be tested.
When he added one hundred taels of silver, a squad from the border guard was dispatched directly to drive him from the West Gate to the East Gate.
The convoy had been sizing him up all along, and as he got out of the carriage, one of them blurted out, "Has anyone ever told you that you look a lot like the former Marquis Wu'an There's a preserved image stone circulating in the army with his likeness. I've seen it many times."
Jiang Wang let out a hearty laugh. "Don't worry, I won't report you. The money I gave was voluntary. It's not shameful to earn some extra income without harming others. But don't let this happen again."
Patted him on the shoulder, and left.
Only the team captain stood there dumbfounded.
Jiang Wang walked with a carriage, traveling from Biancheng all the way to Linzi. On the well-connected official road, he observed the sights and sounds of the world, watching vehicles coming and going. He had attained enlightenment, feeling like he was reborn. It was right for him to look at this world with fresh curiosity.
The scenery of the Eastern Kingdom is beautiful, I haven't seen it for a long time!
But at one moment, he suddenly stopped his feet and looked calmly ahead.
The space just then split open a gap, and a man in scholar's robes, with a pale face and no beard, walked out. He tore apart the space like paper, then retracted his hand, closing the space back up. A faint smile played on his lips: "Long time no see, Hou— I should call you Master Jiang!"
“Head Butler Han!” Jiang Wang smiled at him. “Or should I say, the leader of the night watchmen, Mr. Han”
Even though Han Ling had changed into a scholar's robes and begun to adopt a refined manner, his habit of keeping his hands tucked away in his sleeves remained. You always felt like he was about to pull out an imperial edict at any moment.
>
"I've only been on the job for a few days, how did you know Did Bo Wang Hou tell you"
"Lord Bo Wang wouldn't tell me these things, Qi State's high-level secrets, how could I possibly know them It's your attire that's too obvious, it's clear at a glance." Jiang Wang said: "In the past, whenever I saw Lord Han, he never took off his crimson inner official robe."
Han Ling bowed and said, "I haven't congratulated you yet. Seeing you today, you are already a true master of the world! Thinking back to the day you were enfeoffed as a marquis, I went to invite you and the Champion Marquis to enter... It seems like yesterday, it's really amazing! People say that white horses gallop past in a blink of an eye, don't let them run wild easily. You and the Champion Marquis are both people whom time can't catch up with."
Jiang Wang smiled and said, "I haven't congratulated Lord Han yet. After years of accumulation, he has achieved success in one fell swoop. Assuming a high position is also proof of his truth!"
From the perspective of an inner official, reaching the position of chief superintendent is already the ultimate achievement in this lifetime.
As for a private message from the emperor, reaching the position of leader of the night watchmen is already the pinnacle of this life.
In terms of personal cultivation, the current real people have already reached the level required to be listed in the Halls of Government and Military Affairs.
For many years, Han Ling remained unassuming and discreetly served the king without making a sound or grabbing power. He was indeed a remarkable individual.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But before Jiang Wang, he was very humble and shook his head: "Although we both witnessed the truth of the cave, I achieved it by borrowing power. You are the number one in history, the gap is still very big."
His words were truly modest.
Just as the threshold for cultivation in the political affairs hall and military affairs hall is the "Dòngzhēn,"
Just like the officials of Chao Yiguan and Jiu Zutong, who receive a large amount of national resources to support them, allowing them to "cultivate their true self," ordinary Shenlin cultivators wouldn't have the ability to rise to such positions.

I really want to join in and ride the wave of popularity, but let's be realistic. The competition within that dominant force is incredibly fierce. They wouldn't even consider someone like me who's just idling around!
Generally speaking, high-ranking officials or commanders of nine legions either made great achievements or had a long history of loyalty and family honor. They themselves must also be strong and capable individuals.
>To speak of the officials within the state of Qi again,
Since the Han Ling, there were eight eunuchs in charge of writing and eight court eunuchs who attended the emperor. They held equal status, being powerful figures only under the Han Ling, all revered as divine scholars.
If Han Ling were an ordinary deity, how could he possibly suppress them
The former Night Patrol Leader Candle Age was a figure of the Dao, a powerful individual who had guarded the country for over a thousand years. If Han Ling were an ordinary Earthly Immortal, would the Qi Emperor have appointed him to this position
Zheng Shi was also the emperor's confidant, a trusted advisor for many years. He had worked diligently and contributed greatly, his abilities were evident to all. Dragging it out until now, didn't he eventually become the Commander of Zhan Yu He lacked nothing, only cultivation.
He was also one of the powerful figures in the Divine Realm, but he wasn't strong enough. He wasn't as strong as Chongxuan Chuliang, nor did he have the backing of a powerful clan like Chongxuan Chuliang.

In a world of extraordinary powers, insufficient cultivation means lacking backbone.
The emperor of Great Qi was not a king who appointed people based on personal relationships.
Jiang Wang smiled and said, "I am alone, while Lord Han has the Emperor above him and the powerful kingdom behind him. The gap is indeed huge. I truly admire you."
“Alright, alright, let’s not flatter each other anymore.” Han was in a good mood and greeted, “Since you’re here, why not fly straight to Zi Taking it step by step like this is rather slow, isn’t it”
Jiang Wangdao said, "After entering the country, I thought about it and decided not to trouble Han Da Ren with carrying me!"
“Master Jiang, you are truly meticulous.” Han Ling also smiled: “As the night patrol of Great Qi, I still have to ask you - what brings you here”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang said solemnly, "My first task upon arriving in the West is to pay a visit to the emperor."
Han Ling glanced at him meaningfully and said, “Today you fly on your own. The emperor has given his permission.”
Jiang Wang fell silent for a moment before saying, "It seems the emperor is still closer to Minister Han..."
Han Lingdao said, "I have no particular talent, only loyalty."
Jiang Wang said, "I still want to walk this path. It's been a long time since I last walked it. In the past, I was too eager to cultivate and didn't have time to take a good look around here. The first twenty-three years of my life were too rushed. Now, at such an important moment, I also want to slow down a bit."
“You say you want to slow down, yet you've become the number one in history!” Han Ling smiled and leaned sideways, “Then I’ll accompany Master Jiang for a walk. Please!”
The two of them walked side-by-side on the right side of the official road, chatting as they went, without hindering any express horses that might be galloping along.
Jiang Wang asked, "I forgot to ask Han Sir, who is the current head of the palace officials"
Han Ling countered, "Who does Master Jiang hope for"
Jiang Wang was familiar with only Churchill among the eight people who took notes and attended the class, and he recognized one more person, Zhong Liwen.
He merely said, "It was just a casual question. I have no expectations. Matters of state are for the emperor to decide."
Han Lingdao: "Imperial eunuch Huo Yanshan, attending in the Imperial Court, I wonder if you are familiar with him"
Jiang Wang shook his head. "Not only have I never seen it, but I've never even heard of it."
Han Ling sighed and said: "A gentleman gathers without forming cliques, while a villain forms cliques without gathering. Although Master Jiang was once a national marquis, he could not even fully understand the writings of those who followed him in court, so he can be called a gentleman!"
These sixteen eunuchs were always by the king's side, true confidantes and attendants. Those who serve in Qi should all cultivate relationships. Even if they don't form factions, they should still be friendly with each other. At a critical moment, a simple word or two could make a world of difference!
> Like Jiang Wang, someone who remains indifferent to worldly affairs, avoids power and alliances, and despite holding a high position, lives like a hermit solely focused on cultivation, is truly an anomaly.
Faced with such praise, Jiang Wang said, "I read in a book before that 'A gentleman does not join parties, and his misfortune is safe. A villain benefits from making friends, and his benefit is helped by others. If one loses righteousness without punishment, there will be no solution to the disaster, and he must be trapped.' It feels very reasonable too."
“I think the way people face this world, there isn't a single truth, and it's not necessarily that one way is more correct. Everyone faces different situations and has different standpoints.”
“As for me, though I am not affiliated with any party, I dedicate myself to cultivation and have lived a life of leisure. I hold no official titles and have done little for the people. I consider myself unworthy of being called a gentleman.”
Han listened quietly, feeling that Jiang Wang was indeed different now. As the youngest person to ever achieve true mastery, who did he have in mind when he said this
>Deer Palace Jiang Wang has been here before.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
In front of the deer palace plaza, he was standing for the second time.
Last time I left, he and Chong Xuan trashed the place.
Now there is not a trace of battle.

Even after he left the state of Qi, Qi remained prosperous.
The world is not solely for Qi to scheme, and Qi does not have only Jiang Wang.
After two hours at the site, someone finally came out of the palace to announce.
Jiang Wang then saw the new head eunuch, Huo Yanshan.
This person was tall and strong, a rare build among the palace eunuchs. His voice was deep and suppressed, unlike the soft or shrill voices of other eunuchs.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“How should I address you” His skin was the color of amethyst, whether by nature or a special technique he practiced. Approaching Jiang Wang, his attitude wasn't distant at all.
It could be said that he's the true number one in history, standing for so long. There wasn't a hint of impatience on Jiang Wang's face, instead, he was as warm and gentle as spring breeze, softly saying: "Manager Huo, you don't need to be so polite, just call me by my name."
Ho Yanshan then said, "Master Jiang, the Emperor summons you."
"Jiang Wang nodded in greeting. "Thank you, head steward, for leading the way."
These few steps were taken slowly, and even the Grand Chamberlain was changed from Han Ling to Huo Yanshan, as if there was a touch of severity in the air.
The Délük Palace was a place where the emperor practiced, and it was comparatively less solemn.

But despite the grandeur of palaces and towering buildings, even the emperor was more relaxed.
"Casual" means... he gets mad more easily.

Ho Yanshan's back was getting taller and taller.
The palace gates, flung wide open, resembled two yawning guillotines.
Jiang Wang took a deep breath and stepped into the hall.
