Chương 50: Chapter 80 : Xu Xiu’s strength

Jiang Yuan slowly stood up and said, "If Blackwater Pond truly is a treasured land, then sitting on a treasure mountain without knowing how to use it is a waste."

"It is just that the spiritual seeds we plant cannot be taken out and exchanged for silver." Jiang Wenfeng asked doubtfully, "Father means… we keep the spiritual seeds we grow for ourselves?" Jiang Yuan nodded.

"Everything still has to wait until after tomorrow's spiritual root test."

"If Chen can truly fulfill our hopes and enter an immortal sect, then these spiritual seeds will be of great use."

"When the time comes, whether they are used for Chen or taken out after Chen gains a firm foothold in the immortal sect, they will be an enormous fortune." His thoughts were similar to Jiang Wenfeng's. Among the four children, the one with the greatest hope of entering an immortal's sect was Jiang wenchen.

Once Jiang wenchen was tested and found to possess spiritual roots, successfully entered Cloud Perching Valley, and became a disciple of Cloud Perching Valley, then as long as Cloud Perching Valley was not a demonic cultivation sect, it would most likely not allow other disciples to seize the belongings of a fellow disciple's family. More importantly, after Jiang wenchen entered Cloud Perching Valley and began cultivating immortal arts, he would also understand the characteristics of these spiritual seeds.

If these spiritual seeds did not require special refinement or preparation and could be eaten directly, then he, his wife, and the other family members could all consume the spiritual seeds to improve their bodies. They would not ask for the effects to be too good; at the very least, extending their lives would be enough. If Jiang wenchen did not have aptitude for immortal cultivation, then these spiritual seeds would have to remain sealed away. Even if they rotted, they could not be taken out and sold for money.

Only when a younger generation with immortal cultivation aptitude was born in the family, and after they clearly understood the medicinal properties of the spiritual seeds, could they be taken out and consumed.

"Father, I understand!" Jiang Wenfeng said, "Then after tomorrow's test, I'll see whether we should buy some spiritual seeds back." Jiang Yuan nodded.

"No need to buy too many. We can try planting them first. As for Blackwater Pond, Mute Uncle is a master of agriculture. With him there, it will be more secure."

"In addition, there is one more thing." Jiang Yuan's expression turned grave.

"Do you still remember Xu Xiu?" Jiang Wenfeng was slightly stunned.

"I remember. What about him?" Jiang Yuan sighed and said, "There were no immortal cultivators in the Nine Provinces Kingdom before. Xu Xiu also succeeded through self-study. Although he has been to Blackwater Pond, he did not know the specific secret of Blackwater Pond."

"Now that Ascension Pavilions are being opened in every county and prefecture, the secret of immortal cultivation will slowly become known. Father is worried Xu Xiu may guess the secret of Blackwater Pond." Previously, Xu Xiu had merely relied on a breathing method left behind by an old man suspected to be an immortal and explored cultivation by himself. No one had told him about immortal cultivators. He merely felt that the power of heaven and earth at Blackwater Pond was slightly richer than elsewhere.

"Father is worried he will leak the secret of Blackwater Pond?" Jiang Yuan did not speak. Based on his intuition, he felt Xu Xiu probably would not. But gambling on human nature was not his principle of conduct. Human nature, good or evil, could turn in a single thought.

"Pay more attention while you are at the Ascension Pavilion. If there is any news of Xu Xiu, notify Father at once."

"Father will go and talk to him." Xu Xiu's strength was not weak, and from how things currently appeared, the relationship between both sides was still positive. If they could continue maintaining it, that would naturally be best. Jiang Wenfeng's expression turned somewhat grave. Xu Xiu was very strong. If the other party truly developed greed, with their current strength, they really would have no way to deal with him.

"There is no need to worry too much either," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.

"Xu Xiu has long known about Blackwater Pond, yet he did not stay there to cultivate all the time. This proves that either he did not regard Blackwater Pond as anything important, or he has a place even better than Blackwater Pond."

"We will discuss this matter after meeting him." Jiang Wenfeng nodded, and his gaze could not help turning toward Jiang wenchen, who was not far away. Everything depended on tomorrow's test. If Jiang wenchen could pass the test and enter an immortal sect, then when the time came, all problems could be easily solved.

"It's late. Go sleep." Jiang Yuan turned around and patted his shoulder. Late at night, perhaps because he was unused to the bed, or perhaps because many troublesome matters lingered in his mind, Jiang Yuan could not fall asleep for a long time. Seeing that the time had already reached midnight, he immediately sank his consciousness into his sea of consciousness.
