Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

“Come in, all of you.”

At that moment, the voice of Qin Shenwu suddenly resonated simultaneously

in the ears of Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao.

The three of them immediately looked at each other and replied in unison,

“Yes.”

Following that, they stepped together into the cave abode where Qin Shenwu resided.

“Greetings, Shifu!”

Upon arriving, Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao immediately bowed in unison to Qin Shenwu.

Qin Shenwu nodded at them.

Then, his gaze settled on Jiang Chengxuan.

A smile couldn’t help but spread across his face.

“Chengxuan, well done. You’ve broken through to the Celestial Radiance stage

so quickly.”

As he spoke, his expression froze for a moment, then he stared intently at

Jiang Chengxuan and suddenly said,

“Chengxuan, have you grasped the true essence of a rule?”

“What? Grasped the true essence of a rule?”

Hearing Qin Shenwu’s words, both Zhao Tianfan and Xie Xiangyao looked astonished.

They turned their heads in unison towards Jiang Chengxuan, eager to hear his response.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded and said with a smile.

“TO be honest, Shifu, I have indeed comprehended the true essence of a certain

rule.”

“That’s really…”

Zhao Tianfan and Xie Xiangyao were somewhat surprised.

Clearly, they were well aware of how difficult it was to grasp the true essence of a rule at Jiang Chengxuan’s level.

Most importantly, having grasped the true essence of a rule, he would possess a certain ability to protect himself in the future when facing powerful beings of the Seethrough stage, not being utterly powerless like other cultivators in the face of the Seethrough domain.

“Let’s see what the true essence of the rule you’ve grasped is.

Qin Shenwu said with a smile.

Zhao Tianfan and Xie Xiangyao were also quite curious.

They were genuinely interested in what kind of rule essence their junior brother had grasped.

Jiang Chengxuan didn’t hold back or hide anything.

Suddenly, the sound of flowing water could be heard emanating from him.

Then, within a hundred miles, streams of water began to appear, surrounding the area with a majestic watery domain.

In this water domain,

Zhao Tianfan and Xie Xiangyao could distinctly feel their reactions, thought processes, and the speed at which the Dharmic power circulated within their bodies all seeming to slow down.

“Hm? What is this?”

Both were visibly intrigued.

At the same time.

Qin Shenwu, seated at the head, burst into laughter.

“Excellent, excellent. Truly worthy of being my disciple, to have grasped the true essence of the Water Rule so quickly.

He immediately looked at Jiang Chengxuan and asked:

“Chengxuan, what have you named this true essence of the rule?”

Jiang Chengxuan respectfully replied.

“Shifu, the divine power derived from this true essence of the rule is named

‘Marsh.\'”

“Marsh?”

Qin Shenwu paused for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction.

“That’s a very fitting name indeed.

However, I feel that your understanding of this rule’s true essence is missing

some variability.”

“Missing variability?”

Jiang Chengxuan first appeared puzzled, then quickly realized.

With a somewhat wry smile, he nodded.

“Shifu is right. After all, my understanding of this rule’s true essence is indeed

not fully perfected, lacking in many variations.”

After a pause, he bowed respectfully again and asked:

“Shifu, can you teach me?”

“Hahaha!”

Suddenly, Qin Shenwu burst into hearty laughter.

He said, ”Since I’m your Shifu, I’ll naturally do my best to help you.

Well then, consider this item as my gift to you upon your advancement.” As he spoke, a golden crystal suddenly appeared in Qin Shenwu’s hand, which he then handed to Jiang Chengxuan, saying,

-This is a Transformative Golden Crystal. Integrating it into your true essence of the rule will introduce many variations to it.

However, doing so will also make your rule’s true essence somewhat more

sharp.

After all, this is a metal-elemental spiritual item of rules.

But since metal generates water and possesses the characteristic of variability, it can help your current true essence of the rule to undergo such changes. How you ultimately use it and perfect your own true essence of the rule will depend on you.”

Seeing what Qin Shenwu gifted Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan and Xie Xiangyao’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise.

Clearly, they were aware that the Transformative Golden Crystal given by Qin Shenwu was an extremely precious resource.

Didn’t Qin Shenwu just mention that this was a metal-elemental spiritual item of rules?

Anything related to the term “rules” is invariably complex. Though Jiang Chengxuan might not fully grasp the exact value of the Transformative Golden Crystal, he was aware that a spiritual item of rules was a treasure hard to come by, something you couldn’t just find even if you had all the Heavenly Crystals in the world.

A wave of warmth flowed through Jiang Chengxuan’s heart without reason.

He knew that whether it was his current Shifu, Qin Shenwu, his senior brother, Zhao Tianfan, or his senior sister, Xie Xiangyao, they all truly considered him as one of their own.

Their concern for him was genuine.

At that moment, as Jiang Chengxuan accepted the Transformative Golden Crystal, he expressed his gratitude towards Qin Shenwu with utmost sincerity. “Thank you for the treasure, Shifu. I will definitely remember your kindness and never forget it…”

“Hehe, alright, alright.”

Qin Shenwu chuckled and waved his hand.

“I understand your feelings.

Now, let’s discuss the matter of the large Heavenly Crystal mine in Xichuan

Plains.”

Hearing Qin Shenwu mention this, whether it was Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, or Xie Xiangyao, they all perked up.

“You should all be clear about the specifics of this matter.

But there’s one aspect you might not be aware of.

“Huh?”

Hearing Qin Shenwu’s words, faces of Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao all showed confusion.

A rare serious expression appeared on Qin Shenwu’s face.

He continued: “According to the estimations of a few of us old folks, at the deepest part of that large Heavenly Crystal mine, there might very well exist a secret realm that has never been explored before.”

“What?”

Qin Shenwu’s words completely stunned Jiang Chengxuan and the others. They could have never imagined that at the deepest part of the large Heavenly Crystal mine, there would actually exist an unexplored secret realm.

Could it be that the deepest part of the large Heavenly Crystal mine was actually connected to a natural secret realm?

As if reading the thoughts of his disciples, Qin Shenwu slowly nodded, affirming.

“You’re thinking correctly. Inside, there indeed lies a natural, unexplored secret realm..”
