Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Shu Xiaoxiao watched the rampaging buffalo charging towards them.

“Young Master, leave it to me! A Condensation Realm demon beast doesn’t deserve your attention!”

“Alright!” Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, “Go for it!”

A flash of light appeared in Shu Xiaoxiao’s hand as her life’s Divine Weapon instantly appeared.

With a few agile movements, she quickly charged towards the buffalo.

“Can your little maid really handle that?” Mu Qianru expressed some concerns, “This buffalo is at the ninth level of the Condensation Realm, one level higher than your maid’s cultivation realm. In addition, the Demon Tribe’s physical body is robust, not to be underestimated!”

“With its cultivation realm and its tenacious body, even a great cultivator of the Divine Bridge Realm would at least have to exchange a few blows!”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “Don’t worry! It’s just an ordinary buffalo demon!”

With swift movements, Shu Xiaoxiao approached the buffalo demon and shouted, “You dare challenge my Young Master? You must pass me first!”

The crowd was taken aback at her words.

“Has Jiang Yuan gone mad? How could he send his little maid into battle? Doesn’t he know how formidable this buffalo demon is? It’s at the ninth level of the Condensation Realm and just on the verge of becoming a formidable demon!”

“Who knows what he’s thinking? But it’s unwise of him to send his maid into battle. Earlier, the maid he sent to fight Yu Hua was only at the third level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, and now reaching the fifth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm would already be impressive!”

The crowd nodded in agreement.

“Yes! Absolutely right, Jiang Yuan’s move is unwise. Isn’t this just dooming his maid?”

“Daoist Brother is right, it’s indeed not a wise move by Jiang Yuan! With such a large gap in their power, how could he risk her in battle?”

“Sigh”

As the crowd was nodding in agreement, someone slowly shook their head, “No! Jiang Yuan’s maid can’t have such a low cultivation level?”

“Why not?” someone asked in surprise.

“Look up at the sky. We’re in the interior of the Pearl Cave. Do you understand now?”

Upon hearing these words, the crowd suddenly came to a realization.

“Ah… It seems true. To get inside the Pearl Cave with just the fifth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm would be a struggle due to the suppression from the cave’s power. She couldn’t possibly move so swiftly.”

“So, her cultivation realm is much higher than we thought?”

The man nodded slightly, “Yes, it’s at least the seventh or eighth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, maybe even the ninth level!”

“How could this be? It’s impossible!” Someone instinctively objected, as this completely overthrew the conventional understanding.

Many people had seen Jiang Yuan’s maid in action before. During her battle with Yu Hua, her revealed aura was of the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.

Back then, many people were shocked by this.

Because she was too young, and coupled with her talent, she was a monstrously talented person who could be called a heaven’s genius.

Could such a person willingly become a maid?

After her battle, it caused a sensation with many discussing it.

Almost everyone knew about it.

And now, it was only a little over a month since her battle with Yu Hua.

Even the most extraordinary heaven’s genius could not advance from the fourth level to the seventh, eighth, or ninth level in the Spiritual Sea Realm within a month.

Walking a few decades’ journey of an ordinary heaven’s genius in a month was too exaggerated.

Someone also voiced this question, and a woman gasped in astonishment.

“This… is unbelievable! She was only at the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm when she fought against Yu Hua, how could she have progressed so much so quickly?”

The man pondered for a moment, and then said thoughtfully, “There are two possibilities. One is that she was concealing her true power, some secret techniques can do this!”

“The other possibility is that her talent is extremely fearsome, no less than Jiang Yuan’s. If you consider age, her talent might even be more fearsome than Jiang Yuan’s!”

In the end, he added, “She could be the top heaven’s genius in our Qianyuan Kingdom!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Some wanted to object, thinking she was just a mere maid, and didn’t deserve to be named the top heaven’s genius.

But when the words reached their mouths, they couldn’t voice their objections.

If Jiang Yuan’s maid truly had the seventh or even the eighth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, it would indeed be astounding.

After all, the Pearl Cave had only been open for a little over a month.

A month was an extremely short period of time.

All the heaven’s geniuses present had lifespans spanning hundreds of years.

A month was just an ephemeral flash of light, passing by in the blink of an eye.

Yet, to Jiang Yuan’s maid, this brief month allowed her to break through multiple realms, which was simply incredible.

It couldn’t simply be explained with luck.

On the other side, the buffalo demon heard Shu Xiaoxiao’s words and became furious.

“How dare you insult me, the great buffalo, by sending a mere maid to fight me! In that case, I shall make you regret!”

Its figure suddenly expanded from fifteen feet to over thirty feet just in a few steps.

Like an ancient devil walking out of the wilderness, its qi and blood surged up into the sky.

The mountain shook slightly, even though the onlookers were several miles away from the buffalo demon.

Feeling the slight tremor beneath their feet, some of them changed their expressions significantly.

“Such a formidable qi and blood force, with such a body, it’s no wonder that the demon tribe always has the advantage at the same realm!”

The man finished his sentence and let out a sigh, “I am not his equal!”

This man was ranked twelfth on the Heavenly Ranking, at the ninth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, and just one step away from achieving the Divine Bridge Realm.

Such a heaven’s genius. Who in the world doesn’t know of him!
