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

Advancement of the Silver Osmanthus Tree

At this point, Shen Ruyan suddenly took out a jade slip from her pocket and handed it to Jiang Chengxuan.

“This is the teaching of the Shen family. When every member of the Shen family accepts the inheritance of cultivation, they have to swear an oath in advance that they will not violate the teaching.

If one violates the teaching, even if he is the head of the Shen family, he will still be punished extremely severely.

Believe me, the Shen Immortal family is definitely not a family that has no bottom line.

This jade slip records the teachings and rules of the Shen family. You can take a look and see if I’m lying to you or not.

In addition, I can swear to you now that everything I’m saying is true.

If there’s anything false, I will disappear from this cultivation world.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.

However, although he was embarrassed, he couldn’t be careless when it came to his own safety.

He immediately apologized to Shen Ruyan, but he still reached out to take the jade slip from her.

He placed it on his forehead to sense the contents.

He realized that this jade slip really recorded the teachings of the Shen Immortal family.

The opening sentence was, “Cultivation is about cultivating one’s mind. If one doesn’t have a stable mind, they will be disturbed by demons.”

What it meant was that the essence of cultivation was to cultivate one’s mind. If one could not be the master of one’s mind, no matter how talented one was, they would eventually become a slave of desire and lose their true selves.

Then, there was the next sentence.

[Those who betray friends because of greed and those who go back on their words will be expelled from the Shen family.]

It could be said that there were very, very few family teachings like the Shen Immortal family in the current cultivation world.

Jiang Chengxuan did not know why the ancestors of the Shen Immortal family would leave such teachings for their descendants.

He did not know if such teachings were suitable in the current cultivation world.

However, it was undeniable that after knowing the existence of such teachings, Jiang Chengxuan was indeed much more at ease with the Shen Immortal family.

He handed the jade slip back to Shen Ruyan and smiled in embarrassment.

“I really admire your family teachings. I was being a little petty just now. I hope Elder Ruyan won’t take it to heart.”

Shen Ruyan smiled and shook her head.

“It’s fine. It’s understandable.

As a matter of fact, if you aren’t guarded at all, I’ll probably take back the words about you being talented.”

It had to be said that Shen Ruyan was indeed glib-tongued.

With just a few words, the awkwardness between them disappeared, and the atmosphere returned to normal.

Buzz!

At the same time, the silver osmanthus tree near the two of them suddenly emitted a soaring spiritual light.

Rustle—

At this moment, the entire silver osmanthus tree started shaking violently.

Wisps of silver light began to pour out of the leaves of this silver osmanthus tree.

When the light landed on Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, their minds immediately cleared up.

The fatigue from the battle was swept away.

Shen Ruyan narrowed her eyes and said in a low voice, “This silver osmanthus tree is about to advance!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire silver osmanthus tree suddenly grew taller.

Wisps of spiritual qi in the world began to quickly gather towards this silver osmanthus tree.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could clearly feel that the concentration of spiritual qi in the surroundings was rapidly increasing.

If the concentration of spiritual qi was originally 2, then the concentration of spiritual qi now was 5.

Moreover, it was still increasing.

This was a sign that the spiritual vein was about to take shape!

Rustle—

Rustle—

The leaves swayed.

The size of the silver osmanthus tree changed from more than three meters to more than eight meters, and it was still rising.

By rough estimation, when it really completed its advancement, it would be at least ten meters tall.

“Elder Jiang, I have to report the situation here first.”

At this moment, Shen Ruyan looked at Jiang Chengxuan.

“I think you know the value of a Level 2 spiritual root and a Level 2 spiritual vein very well.

Therefore, in order to prevent any accidents from happening later, before the other elders of the family arrive, I hope you and I can stay here for the time being.

I can promise you that you will definitely get a share of everything we obtain here.”

Jiang Chengxuan did not object.

Since he was certain that the Shen Immortal family would not harm him, protecting the silver osmanthus tree with Shen Ruyan was equivalent to protecting his interests.

Jiang Chengxuan could see the bigger picture.

Moreover, he also knew that with the huge commotion caused by the silver osmanthus tree, it was hard to guarantee that it would not attract the attention of some people.

Perhaps some people would have designs on this silver osmanthus tree.

Therefore, the two of them stayed to guard the silver osmanthus tree together and carefully observed their surroundings to prevent any accidents from happening.

Fortunately, no accidents happened.

About two hours later, the Silver Osmanthus Tree successfully advanced and became a low-grade Level 2 spiritual root.

At the same time, a Level 2 spiritual vein was born under their feet.

This made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan secretly heave a sigh of relief.

At the same time, the two of them suddenly looked into the distance.

Over there in the distance, three streaks of light were approaching.

When the three streaks of light approached, they turned out to be the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Shen Immortal family.

The person in the lead was none other than the current head of the Shen family, Shen Daoming.

Beside him was Xiong Wandao, an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall that Jiang Chengxuan had seen before.

As for the other person, he was an old man in his sixties.

His name was Xu Qianhe.

He was at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm and had been a guest elder of the Shen Immortal family for nearly a hundred years.

At this moment, their gazes landed on the low-grade Level 2 silver osmanthus tree and they couldn’t help but be delighted.

“It’s indeed a low-grade Level 2 spiritual root and a Level 2 spiritual vein.”

As they spoke, the three of them turned to look at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Shen Daoming laughed and said, “Elder Jiang, Ruyan, congratulations!

I didn’t expect you to gain so much from this mission.

Don’t worry, I will reward you accordingly.

However, before that, we have to handle the situation here first.”

With that, Shen Daoming turned to look at Xu Qianhe and asked, “Elder Xu, what do you think? Is there a problem with setting up a Level 2 defensive array here?”
