Chapter 3
Someone Came to the Cave Abode in the Ganyang Market
A hundred spell castings?
Jiang Chengxuan was stunned for a moment before he was overwhelmed by the anticipation for the reward.
After all, with the rewards from the previous two missions, it was very difficult for Jiang Chengxuan not to be tempted by the rewards from the later missions.
However, it was obviously not appropriate for him to continue staying in this mortal city if he wanted to complete this mission.
After all, casting spells was different from attempting to break through where he could stay in one place and not move.
Even if he went to the nearby wilderness or forest, it was inevitable that he would be seen, which would affect the progress.
It seemed that it was time for him to leave this place.
At the thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan no longer hesitated.
That night, he left Autumn Leaf City.
A few months later.
In a forest far away from Ganyang Market.
Jiang Chengxuan cast a spell called the Flaming Saber on a big tree in front of him.
In an instant, the tree was split into two.
Then, raging flames ignited all the vegetation for a few meters.
Ding!
At this moment, a system notification suddenly sounded in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.
[Congratulations, host. You have completed the mission of a hundred spell castings. You are rewarded with a Perfection Spell Inheritance Jade.]
[Perfection Spell Inheritance Jade: After using it, it can instantly allow the host to reach Perfection in a certain spell.]
[Note: This spell can’t exceed the limit of the host’s current realm.]
In other words, the spell he chose had to be something he could really control.
The spells he could really control now were all within Level 1 high-grade.
In other words, if he used the jade now, he could at most master a Level 1 high-grade spell to Perfection.
However, if he could break through to the Foundation Establishment realm, he would undoubtedly have more choices.
A Level 2 high-grade spell might be a little difficult to control.
However, low-grade or even mid-grade Level 2 would definitely not be a problem.
At that time, with a perfected Level 2 spell, even if he had just entered the Foundation Establishment realm, he could quickly gain a foothold in that realm.
He had to think of a way to break through as soon as possible.
As Jiang Chengxuan thought, he returned to his cave abode in the Ganyang Market.
This was a cave abode he had rented a few months ago.
The price was not cheap.
It cost a total of three spirit stones to rent every month.
This was already considered relatively expensive among many low-level cave abodes.
Fortunately, the spiritual energy in this cave abode was quite abundant.
At least for Jiang Chengxuan, a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refinement, it was enough to satisfy his daily cultivation needs.
At this moment.
Not long after Jiang Chengxuan returned to his cave abode, he suddenly felt the restriction on his cave abode being activated.
Through the light reflected by the restriction, Jiang Chengxuan realized that two people were standing outside his cave abode.
They were a man and a woman who looked about 40 years old.
Jiang Chengxuan recognized at a glance that the two people who were outside his cave abode were the couple he had gotten to know in the Ganyang Market recently who were independent cultivators.
The man’s name was Xu Haichuan. Like him, his cultivation was at the eighth level of Qi Refinement.
The woman was called Mei Hongyan, and she was at the seventh level of Qi Refinement.
He wondered why they came to his cave abode.
Jiang Chengxuan was a little suspicious, but he still went forward and lifted the restriction.
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, you’re finally back.”
As soon as the restriction on the cave abode was lifted by Jiang Chengxuan, the middle-aged man, Xu Haichuan, spoke.
After he brought Xu Haichuan and his wife into the cave abode, he asked Xu Haichuan,
“Fellow Daoist Xu, what brought you here to look for me?”
Xu Haichuan and Mei Hongyan looked at each other.
Xu Haichuan nodded and said, “Fellow Daoist Jiang. Actually, we came this time to invite you to explore a ruin with us.”
“Invite me to explore a ruin?”
Hearing Xu Haichuan’s words, Jiang Chengxuan immediately frowned slightly.
Having been in the cultivation world for a hundred years, he was not a noob cultivator.
He knew very well what kind of place the so-called ruins were.
It was not an exaggeration to say that a place like the ruins was not a place for cultivators like them to set foot in.
Even if a Qi Refinement cultivator had a heaven-sent opportunity and discovered a cave abode left behind by a high-level cultivator, he would definitely not share it with others.
After all, opportunities like this were tempting.
No one could guarantee that their companion would not stab them in the back after seeing the opportunity or fall out with them and fight for the opportunity.
Jiang Chengxuan had heard of such anecdotes dozens of times in the past hundred years.
Therefore, he was not interested in Xu Haichuan and his wife’s invitation.
As if he had guessed that Jiang Chengxuan would decline, Xu Haichuan spoke.
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, do you think there’s something fishy about us inviting you to explore a ruin with us?”
Without waiting for Jiang Chengxuan to answer, Xu Haichuan explained,
“To be honest, the ruin we mentioned was actually not discovered by us alone. We’re not the only ones who know about that ruin.”
Xu Haichuan roughly told Jiang Chengxuan about the situation in the ruin.
It turned out.
The ruin that Xu Haichuan and his wife were talking about was actually a ruin discovered by the Ganyang Sect not long ago.
The Ganyang Sect was one of the three top cultivation sects in the Yun Nation.
There was a Golden Core Daoist presiding in the sect.
He was the true overlord of the Ganyang Mountain Range.
He was also the true owner of the Ganyang Market where they were now.
According to Xu Haichuan and his wife, the ruin discovered by the Ganyang Sect seemed to have been set up with a very brilliant restriction that only allowed Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment cultivators to enter.
Once a person in the Violet Palace Realm wanted to enter, they would be sent flying back by the restriction hidden in the ruin.
If they forced their way in, they might cause the ruin to self-destruct.
The loss outweighed the gain.
They did not want to alarm the Golden Core Daoist in their sect because of that restriction, so someone thought of using independent cultivators like them to help explore that ruin.
This way, not only could they greatly speed up the exploration of the ruin, but they could also reduce the number of casualties that might occur among the disciples of the Ganyang Sect.
Especially when the Ganyang Sect promised all the independant cultivators that as long as they were willing to enter that ruin to explore, they would be able to keep 10% of the gains when they came out.
This made many independent cultivators tempted.
