Cultivation: Being Immortal

Time flies by, and all of a sudden Lin Jiang turned three hundred years old

The Five Elements Sect - the entrance to the mountain

Zhang Wanjing arrived in front of Lin Jiang's cave, Lin Jiang took a glance and wanted to run away, but Zhang Wanjing called him to stop.

"You want to run away as soon as you see me, what's the meaning of that?"

"I can't afford to provoke you, can't I hide from you?"

"I brought you some good stuff - a cloud mist tea of the fifth rank, only three in the whole Yun State. One cup is enough to let you avoid half a month of cultivation and it also cleanses dan poison. And there's a special spiritual wine from other states called Laughing Maiden, which is not sold in the market. It's exclusively for Nascent Soul cultivators."

Zhang Wanjing lifted the things in his hands and said to Lin Jiang.

"Master, this is like a weasel wishing a rooster a happy new year. You can't have good intentions, right?"

"Stop talking and open the door, activate the formation, or else I will clean up the place today."

Lin Jiang, with a sad face, opened the cave entrance and let Zhang Wanjing in.

"Why are you digging a fish pond in the cave instead of planting magical herbs?"

Zhang Wanjing glanced at Lin Jiang's cave, which was not big, only about ten acres in size, but there was a fish pond, estimated to be about two or three acres. Isn't this wasteful?

"Dig a fish pond, raise some fish, plant lotus flowers, and fish in your spare time. Then have a lotus pond for moon viewing. This is called ambiance, do you understand?"

"I don't understand. I only know that you have money now and don't care about the spiritual land's earnings from the cave, right?"

"No, it's about ambiance. It's all about ambiance, and besides, I don't have money."

"Stop talking, I came here today to ask you for money, either a Spirit Integrating Pill or a spirit stone, you choose."

Zhang Wanjing stopped pretending and revealed his true intentions. He came here today to rob someone, specifically a fellow disciple.

"Master, are you robbing someone?"

"Does it count as robbery between master and disciple? It's more like taking advantage. What's wrong with benefiting a little from my disciple?"

"·····"

"Ah, Xiao Yi, I owe you for this. I apologize to Shuhua, for what I did in the past..."

"Okay, okay, enough with the sorrowful act. Can I make it up to you?"

Seeing Zhang Wanjing being serious and putting on a pathetic act, Lin Jiang couldn't bear it and took out a fancy box.

"Thank you, you really are a good disciple, my student."

"Don't thank me just yet, master. Can you help me with one more thing?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Someone has set their sights on my businesses, help me fix this."

"Who is targeting your businesses?"

"It's the relatives of those big shots in the sect. I've been doing well, but they want to interfere."

Lin Jiang said, we need to start with his teammates. This is Zhang Wanjing's thirteenth year of transformation. Lin Jiang has made a fortune from the transformation, and those who followed him have also become rich.

Not to mention, even Zheng Da Hu and Zhang Er Hu, who supply him with spiritual paddy, have become wealthy. But they lack Lin Jiang's determination and started living extravagantly. Let's not talk about their luxurious lifestyle, but Yue Qing, after saying goodbye to Sister Hua, even married seven concubines and started acting like Wei Xiaobao.

This caused people to take notice. Those who were interested calculated Lin Jiang's assets and realized he was a wealthy man. Suddenly, everyone had ideas, especially since Lin Jiang is only at the Building Foundation Period and is nearly a hundred years old. With the sect unable to compete for Foundation Building treasures, some people are already itching for action.

"I will help you solve this."

Zhang Wanjing nodded. He wasn't a stickler for rules. Since Lin Jiang's businesses follow the sect's regulations, he wouldn't allow others to compete.

"Thank you, Master."

"We're family, no need to thank each other. Oh, and this Spirit Integrating Pill, please give it to Shuhua."

"Where did you go?"

"I'm busy, just go ahead and deliver it."

"Understood."

"I'm leaving."

"Oh my, Master, if you're leaving, at least leave the gift behind."

Lin Jiang saw that Zhang Wanjing was about to leave, but he unexpectedly wanted to take back the gift he had brought. Lin Jiang became anxious and reached out to snatch it back. That old man didn't follow the rules, taking back a gift that had already been given. What kind of person was he?

········

"Senior brother, I'm here, where are you?"

Lin Jiang walked into Zhang Shuhua's cave in a careless manner. He had the control token for Zhang Shuhua's cave, a privilege even Zhang Wanjing didn't have.

"Uncle, uncle!"

Zhang Shuhua didn't show up, but a smart little boy appeared.

"Xiao Chen, call me 'dad', and I'll give you candy."

Lin Jiang smiled and squatted down, saying to the little kid. This is Zhang Shuhua's son, who is already four years old this year.

Zhang Wenchen's face was full of confusion after listening. Uncle had said the same thing last time and gave him a big bag of candy, it was so delicious, but his bottom hurt and he almost got spanked by Zhang Shuhua.

"Go ahead, Xiao Chen, call me 'dad', and this time I'll give you a whole sack of candy and a chicken leg."

"Xiao Yi, if you want to die, just say it!"

Just as Zhang Wenchen was about to give in to temptation, Zhang Shuhua appeared, with a face full of frustration, and said to Lin Jiang.

"Haha, big brother, you're home!"

"Are you crazy? Why do you keep asking my son to call you dad? If you want a son, have one yourself!"

"But I can't have one."

"Go away!"

"Sister-in-law, big brother hit me, aren't you going to do something?"

Lin Jiang immediately shouted angrily, Zhang Shuhua was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

"Let's stop playing, let's go to the study."

When Lin Jiang realized the joke was getting out of hand, he toned it down a bit. He understood the extent of a joke from Zhang Shuhua's reaction.

"What's the matter?"

"Your father is robbing me again."

"Serves him right."

"This time it's the Spirit Integrating Pill."

"You really made it. How many did you take?"

After this, Zhang Shuhua was no longer calm. He knew that Lin Jiang, Wei Yunshen, and himself had been planning for many years to obtain the Spirit Integrating Pill, but they actually managed to accomplish it.

"I only got one."

Lin Jiang said that he had been planning this for five years. The four of them invested millions of spirit stones and countless favors to slowly gather the main ingredients for the Spirit Integrating Pill from the golden core cultivators of the Five Elements Sect. They also collected auxiliary ingredients from various places and hired people to refine them. Most of the costs were covered by Lin Jiang, and he even did some things in Zhang Wanjing's name. That's why he got two pills, but he couldn't tell the truth.

"Even though you only had one, my father still took it from you. I'll help you get it back."

"Stop, I volunteer, here is the medicine, you take it."

"Xiao Yi, you're crazy, how old are you this year, if you don't break through soon, you won't have a chance."

"Don't be silly, I've lost the opportunity for the sect's medicine a long time ago, I have my own way, you break through as soon as possible."

"I don't want it."

"No wonder master asked me to deliver it, if he came himself, you definitely wouldn't accept it."

"Even if you give it to me, I won't take it, I can't harm you."

"Harm? I can make twice as much medicine as I need for one furnace, I'm younger than you, let's do it this way."

Lin Jiang said and directly shoved the medicine into Zhang Shuhua's hands.

"Junior brother, I..."

"Why is the big tomboy doing?"

"I still owe you."

"Don't you have a son? Let your son repay you."

"If you really want it, I'll legally make Wencheng your adopted child."

"Oh my gosh, are you serious? Big brother, I never intended to help raise a child. You should raise him yourself."

Lin Jiang got startled, he was just joking. Don't take it seriously, okay?

"From now on, Wencheng will see you as his father. I'm not joking."

"Let's not talk about this, I feel a bit unwell."

Lin Jiang awkwardly said, he wasn't ready to be a dad and being a godfather is also not an option.

"Is my younger martial brother looking down on my son for being foolish and stupid?"

"No, he isn't."

"Then I'll have another child with my wife."

"Martial brother, if you want me to leave, just say so directly. Don't behave like this."

"Alright, let's not talk about that. Stay for lunch and let your sister-in-law make you some delicious food. It's even better than your restaurant."

"Great! I brought good wine. Would your beautiful wife like to have a taste?"

"My father indeed likes you more. This wine, he has a whole jar of it. A jar from Medicine City was auctioned for fifty thousand spirit stones two years ago."

"It's more expensive than the Building Foundation Pill."

"That's normal. When you hang out with Wei Yunshen and the others, you realize how luxurious their lives are."

"Wei, Martial Uncle, also fell into corruption."

Lin Jiang shook his head, Wei Yunshen and the other two had given up on the hope of having children themselves. They couldn't resist the temptation of a luxurious lifestyle, just like Jin Yu before them. They invested all their resources into indulgence. This time, they obtained Spirit Integrating Pills, all prepared for their future offspring.

"It's not easy for ordinary people to maintain a simple life. Junior Brother, I really admire you in this aspect."

"I'm just amazed by your father, Junior Brother. I've never been exposed to such luxury, so I don't know what it's like."

Lin Jiang laughed heartily. It's true that he didn't have much to say in this regard. Apart from occasionally attending the Palace Banquet, he had very low requirements for food, drink, clothing, and shelter. He made do with what he had.

Even after hundreds of years, Lin Jiang's humble mindset had not changed. The main reason was his own resistance. Lin Jiang had a clear understanding of his own willpower. Once he got used to this kind of life, he would become addicted to it.

It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Don't overestimate your own human nature.
