Chapter 175 Great Rewards for the Tenth Year, The Reincarnation Transmigration Technique
The time was exactly 00:00 on the 1st of January, Year 10,000 of the Great Zhou Calendar.
“Ding: Congratulations to the host for living on Chuyang Peak for ten continuous years and insisting on working and cooking daily. Rewarded with 1,000 wisps of origin essence, five strips of top-grade spiritual veins, a set of Sword Tome, one Universe Sword, one Universe Furnace, and one Ofuda Talisman.”
The rewards were not many. In fact, very few rewards were given, yet each of them was exquisite!
Origin essence: Each strip was akin to a long river where there was an overwhelming power of creation embedded in it.
Jiang Ming directly merged them into his inner world. In an instant, the origin essence rapidly decomposed and integrated into every corner of the world, causing the order of the world to accelerate by 10,000-folds abruptly.
The inner world’s area was also expanding rapidly.
Originally, Jiang Ming had killed a lot of beneficiaries and gotten his hands on quite a number of origin essences. Upon absorption, his inner world had expanded from its original 1-million-mile radius into a 1.2-million-mile radius already. Now that the inner world further absorbed 1,000 strips of origin essence, its area expanded directly to about 1.5 million miles and was still expanding rapidly.
The spatial condition of the inner world became much more stable, and the spiritual qi was getting denser. The law of order was also tuned to a perfect state as the core continuously expanded.
Such rapid improvement was truly astounding.
“Once the strips of origin essence merge completely, I wonder what extent my inner world will reach.” Jiang Ming was thrilled about it.
At the same time, waves of energy were fed back into his physique. He quickly evoked the Grand Path Almighty Method Sutra to temper his body, allowing it to grow stronger constantly.
Such overall enhancement was from the inside out.
Jiang Ming did not pause and continued placing the other five strips of spiritual veins to merge into the lands of his inner world.
The spiritual veins were of top grade, which was rare even in the Tianyuan World.
Not only could they automatically evolve the spiritual qi and sort out the ley lines, but they also had the effect of suppressing the earth, atomically making different kinds of leylines condense and operate in an orderly manner.
The most important thing was that it could also improve the world’s core and expand its space.
‘After all these completely merge with my inner world, will my inner world directly reach its perfect state? The system’s rewards are still the best!’
Jiang Ming felt powerful as if it was an enhancement after breaking through a realm. Sword Tome: Expounding the supreme Sword Dao.
m
Universe Sword: Level 14 Immortal Soldier, possesses unparalleled attack.
Universe Furnace: Level 14 Immortal Weapon, able to refine weapons and pills. It can be used for defense and suppression. Ofuda Talisman: Restricted by the Dao contract, it can be integrated into those who are of a lower realm than the caster, forming a slave or servant connection between the casters as though the person was a puppet. It does not change the will, nor does it distort the heart, and it is difficult to be detected or changed without the power of the Great Dao.
They were great items, especially the sword and the furnace, which were both absolutely supreme weapons. After imprinting the weapons with droplets of blood, Jiang Ming directly merged the Universe Furnace into his inner world to use it as an item from suppression and to be used as protection at the same time.
After all, the inner world was fundamental, and he could not risk anything happening to it.
Now that he owned such an item, he had a better guarantee of his inner world’s safety.
He thought, ‘What was the most insane of all was the Ofuda Talisman! My goodness! A deed for forcing enslavement? This is over the top already! How can they be enslaved without changing the person’s will or distorting the heart? Moreover, it cannot be detected and changed unless the power of Great Dao is used. This… It’s too outrageous! “The only downside is that the person you use it on cannot exceed the level of your own realm, which is a little ineffective, to say the least.’ Jiang Ming was out of words. Even the Great Dao was mentioned, and yet the item could not be used against those stronger than himself. Just thinking about it hurt!
‘I’m afraid that it will take another 10 years for the next great batch of rewards!’ Jiang Ming thought as he walked out of his room.
He sat on top of the roof and watched as the moonlight bathed over the land.
With a few taps, he took out the World Monitoring Mirror and saw that there were not many lights, only 10 or so left.
‘I’ll just let you cause some trouble!’ He did not plan to continue paying attention to them. He would leave them to the many Sacred Lands to deal with them.
Even if some incidents happened in the future, he could just kill them at any time.
Jiang Ming lay on a rattan chair, swaying slowly and enjoying the tranquility of the night.
He evoked the Human Path Records to take a look at his own Status.

Jiang Ming’s Status did not have huge changes. What was more obvious was that his cultivation base had risen to the Imminent Immortal Realm, the Sky Shattering Sword Technique was added to his special abilities, and he had a few additional Dao Vessels.
The next morning…
“Senior Brother, today the sect will be holding a ceremony to accept new apprentices. Are you planning on taking in any disciples?” Linglong asked while she was helping to stir the egg mixture herself. “We’ll see what happens.” Jiang Ming hesitated, “After all, Chuyang Peak is one of the main peaks. It wouldn’t make sense if there were only the two of us here at the peak. What about you? Do you have any plans to take in disciples?”
“I’m only 20 years old, for crying out loud. How can I accept disciples when I’m still so young myself?”
“Haha! You seem to realize that you are still young!”
“Am I really young, though?” Linglong asked as she puffed out her chest, causing Jiang Ming’s nose to feel warm suddenly.
It was a simple breakfast that morning.
After the meal, the rewards came, and this time it was one Blood Dominator Pill. Upon consuming the pill, it could alter the person’s bloodline to become the Celestial Tyrant Body, truly a potent effect.
Chang Yiming walked over and asked, “Brother Jiang, shall we go together?” “Let’s go,” Jiang Ming replied swiftly before asking, “Are you prepared to accept disciples of your own?”
“Of course I am!” Chang Yiming answered with a smile. “After all, I’m already in the Purple Mansion Realm and am currently the head disciple ofLaoyang Peak. I’ve long qualified for this. Given the opportunity this time around, I will take in a disciple one way or the other. My disciple will be doing all the hard work, and I’ll just be the shopkeeper resting at the back!”
“If your Senior Uncle knew you had such a plan in mind, you would surely be getting a beating from him!”
Chang Yiming only chuckled as the three walked away together.
On Reception Peak…
There was a huge square, which was made by cutting off the top of a mountain, with jaded white bridges connecting the places together. The surroundings were shrouded with a thin mist as though it was a scene straight from an immortal’s dwelling.
There were tens of thousands of teenagers gathered in the square.
Most of them were in their early teen years. They were all great seedlings selected all over Qing Province, each giving off a feeling of ignorance but was ablaze with fervent.
It was especially true for the ones who were looking at the Sect Master and the others who were standing mid-air. The fiery spirit burning in the teenagers’ eyes looked as though it was materializing due to them getting overly high-spirited. Many people would have to kneel upon seeing these masters if they weren’t strictly warned.
“Linglong, Ming, Yiming, you have arrived!” Upon seeing the three of them, the Sect Master immediately greeted them. Although it wasn’t that obvious, it was clear that he was very enthusiastic. The rest of the First Seats also came over. All of them knew that everything the Jiuyang Sect had today was Zi Linglong’s doing.
“Hail the Sect Master!” Jiang Ming clenched his fist, greeting with a bow as Zi Linglong did the same.
The Sect Master was a little flattered and ecstatic in his heart. From Jiang Ming’s gesture, he clearly saw that Jiang Ming didn’t give off a distant feeling toward the sect, nor was he arrogant at all, still regarding himself as a disciple of the Jiuyang Sect.
That much was already enough for him.
“You don’t have to be too polite!” The Sect Master waved his hand quickly and asked, “Planning to accept a disciple today?”
“I’ll have a look first. Sect Master, are there any rules here?” Jiang Ming asked.
“It’s very simple!” The Sect Master answered, “Each main peak can first select those they think possess excellent aptitude and bring the candidates back to their respective peaks. The rest of the candidates will be temporarily placed in the outer sect and undergo training together. In 3 years’ time, if these candidates do not meet the requirements, they will have to return to where they came from, whereas those who meet the requirement will be officially enlisted as outer disciples.”
Jiang Ming understood the process clearly upon listening to the Sect Master’s explanation.
Back then, he hadn’t gone through such a process as Gu Hau had brought him back to Chuyang Peak to be his direct disciple. It was truly a major leap, skipping the whole process.
If he had to start from being in the outer sect, he would have had to grow slowly, fight for resources, cultivate diligently, and finally reach the Foundation Establishment Realm before he could apply to become the inner disciples of one of the main peaks.
“Junior Brother Gu Hai intends to hand over the position as the First Seat to you. You seem to be wise and responsible, so you will temporarily take on the First Seat position. There are very few people at Chuyang Peak, so we will let you choose first. If you see any of them that suit you, feel free to choose one or two of them.” the Sect Master thoughtfully offered.
“Alright!” Jiang Ming took up on his offer and continued. “Sect Master, I’ll be using our Chuyang Peak’s selection method then.” “You may!” Sect Master nodded with a smile on his face.
He took a short glance at Zi Linglong and quickly noticed that she was standing right next to Jiang Ming the whole time, not saying a word. In his heart, he now fully understood what Gu Hai meant when he said, “That little girl Linglong! I’ve raised her in vain! She treats her Senior Brother better than me!”
Jiang Ming glanced through tens of thousands of these teenagers, all full of energy and brimming with spirit.
Those that were brought up to the mountains must have gone through selections and were all good seedlings.
Jiang Ming transmitted a few words to Zi Linglong, and she quickly leaped up in the air. An invincible wave of energy shrouded the whole square with just a simple thought.
In an instant, the tens of thousands of teenagers suddenly found that all figures beside them had disappeared, and they were left all alone.
The sky darkened, quickly turning pitch black, and soon they realized they couldn’t even see their own fingers if they wanted.
It felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them, trying to pressure and suffocate them.
Most of the teenagers knew that this was a test. Even so, when placed in absolute darkness, they couldn’t help but start to panic and get scared.
In their minds, such terrifying pressure was forcing them to break down.
One by one, the teenagers’ eyes slowly became dull, and their bodies began to sway. Some of them fell head first, and the darkness immediately faded, and so did the overwhelming pressure.
They noticed that their feet were still planted on the square, and they were still surrounded by teenagers.
Their faces turned pale as they knew that they were finished in their hearts.
The teenagers fell face down one after another as the Sect Master and the rest watched in silence.
“This is just a test of will.” Lieyang Peak’s First Seat, Dongfang Lie, transmitted to the Sect Master, “Accepting disciples should be based on the root bones. Sect Master, is she correct for selecting disciples in such a way? Even if the person has a strong will, their cultivation will be immensely slow, and their potential will be limited with a weak root bone!”
“Junior Brother Dongfang, you’re looking at the small picture.” The Sect Master casually transmitted, “Do you think she doesn’t have anything that can change a person’s root bone with her? In her perspective, the root bone isn’t that important to her.
“On the contrary, what’s important to her is a person’s will and comprehension. If a person has a will of steel, they will possess a firm mind. As for comprehension? With the current resources available for cultivation, it isn’t comparatively as important as a person’s will.” “This…” Dongfang Lie smiled bitterly. “You’re right. The sect has been developing way too fast. My vision has been a little too short.”
The Sect Master took the matter seriously.
In the end, 10 people slowly rose up in the square. They had dull eyes and were trembling all over as though they might fall down at any moment.
Obviously, this was Zi Linglong’s intention, as it was easier to distinguish them apart from the rest by floating them in mid-air.
Of course, the remaining 10 candidates were extraordinary compared to the rest.
Jiang Ming slowly inspected each and every one of them.
His pupils quickly shrank when his eyes locked onto one of the young girls with two ponytails. ‘The Reincarnation Transmigration Technique! There’s even such a special ability! This is a great technique indeed!’
