Seeing the ancestor’s remnant soul disappear, Ye Qizheng finally let out a deep breath.

Just now, before Jiang Chen’s remnant soul disappeared, he pointed a finger in the air and shattered a mountain in the distance. This kind of action would be confusing to others.

But in Ye Qizheng’s heart, he was very clear that Jiang Chen was worried about him, so when he entered the glabella of this disciple, he used his strength to intimidate him.

Although Ye Qizheng was a bit scared, he was also glad at the same time. After all, the attack didn’t hit him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even know how he died.

Soon, the phenomenon of heaven and earth gradually disappeared.

The disciple Jiang Chen, who had been unconscious for a long time, also woke up.

Of course, Jiang Chen had already accepted all the memories when the remnant soul had entered his glabella. He knew what had happened when he had fused with this body.

When he woke up, Jiang Chen didn’t say anything. Instead, he glanced at the current True Martial Sect at once.

Dilapidated!

Desolate!

What he saw wasn’t what a sect should look like!

“I’ve only been gone for a few thousand years, and the sect has already declined to such a state?”

“If I came back a little later, wouldn’t my True Martial Sect be completely gone?”

Jiang Chen frowned coldly. After all, it was a sect that he had spent a lot of effort to build. Besides, he had only ascended for 5,000 years, and the sect had already gone from being a behemoth to a ninth-class sect that everyone could humiliate.

No matter how he thought about it, Jiang Chen was infuriated.

At the same time, Ye Qizheng was curious about what kind of monster this Jiang Chen was since he had been chosen by the founder of the True Martial Sect to help the sect recover to its former peak.

Ye Qizheng grabbed Jiang Chen’s hand out of curiosity. He injected his qi into his body to check.

It would have been better if he didn’t check. He was shocked by the result.

He exclaimed subconsciously, “How… How is this possible? He doesn’t even have the aptitude to cultivate!”

Ye Qizheng’s words caused an uproar in the sect.

They had heard the conversation between the sect leader and the founder of the sect clearly. Everyone knew that this Jiang Chen would be their next sect leader, and he would be a peerless genius who could lead the sect back to its peak.

However, what were they hearing now? Jiang Chen didn’t have any aptitude for cultivation?

Not having any aptitude for cultivation meant he was a good-for-nothing, right?

How could a good-for-nothing lead the sect to glory?

“Sect Leader, is… is this true? Does he really not have any aptitude for cultivation?”

“Impossible! Senior praised him so much, how could he be a good-for-nothing?”

Hearing the doubts of the elders and disciples, Ye Qizheng reluctantly nodded his head and said, “I’ve checked a few times. He really doesn’t have any aptitude for cultivation!”

At this moment, Elder Li of the outer sect also stood up and said, “Sect Leader, elders, I can prove it.”

“Jiang Chen has been here for five years. Until now, he hasn’t cultivated any True Qi.”

“He hasn’t cultivated any True Qi in five years. This…”

Ye Qizheng was silent. The situation was more serious than he had expected. Jiang Chen hadn’t cultivated True Qi even after five years of cultivation.

At this moment, the disciples, the elders, and even the sect leader of the True Martial Sect, Ye Qizheng, were wondering if the ancestor had truly misjudged him.

How could a good-for-nothing lead the True Martial Sect back to its peak? Moreover, how could such a person become the sect leader?

Jiang Chen heard what they were talking about, but he didn’t say anything.

They were talking about the fact that the owner of this body, Jiang Chen, was a good-for-nothing cultivator. They were just sharing the same name.

Besides, even if he was really a good-for-nothing, Jiang Chen wouldn’t panic.

After all, ordinary methods of cultivation didn’t apply to him. Of course, it was useless for him to test his aptitude for cultivation.

However, as long as Jiang Chen knew these things, it would be fine. He couldn’t just reveal his identity and say that he was the real founder of the True Martial Sect. These methods of evaluation didn’t apply to him. He wasn’t using any ordinary methods of cultivation, was he?

Who would believe such a thing?

“Since you don’t believe me, then please step back a hundred meters, and I will prove it to you!” Jiang Chen patted the tattered clothes on his body and spoke indifferently.

Step back a hundred meters?

Was he trying to cultivate?

Ye Qizheng and the other elders knew that Jiang Chen hadn’t cultivated True Qi in the past five years, and if he wanted to take the first step to become a practitioner in front of them, he would undoubtedly be trying to impress them.

However, since the ancestor had given him an order, he had to give him face. He had to order his disciples to step back a hundred meters.

Jiang Chen sat down cross-legged after seeing everyone step back.

On the Red Sun Continent, cultivators practiced Taoism.

There were four realms in cultivation: Spirit, Physical, Conception, and Origin.

Each cultivation realm was then further split into three stages: early stage, middle stage, and late stage.

For example, the sect leader Ye Qizheng was at the middle stage of the Origin Realm.

The three elders were at the early stage of the Origin Realm.

The outer sect’s Elder Li was at the early stage of the Physical Realm.

The Spirit Realm allowed one to open nine spiritual meridians, which would further improve one’s aptitude. He could draw the primordial qi of heaven and earth into his body and use it for his own benefit. It could be used for both defense and attack!

There were three spiritual meridians in the early stage of the Spirit Realm, six spiritual meridians in the middle stage of the Spirit Realm, and nine spiritual meridians in the late stage of the Spirit Realm.

The first technique Jiang Chen cultivated was to draw the primordial qi of heaven and earth into his body and open the spiritual meridians in his body.

After sitting down cross-legged, Jiang Chen started to practice the constellation of nine turns cultivation technique.

The constellation of nine turns cultivation technique was a low-grade yellow class method.

According to the class of the method, it could be divided into four classes: Heaven, earth, black, and yellow. Each class was divided into three classes. The constellation of nine turns cultivation technique was the lowest class cultivation technique!

The method Jiang Chen was going to cultivate was the constellation of nine turns cultivation technique.

…

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

After only three breaths of time, the surrounding primordial qi of heaven and earth started to surge. Sounds of buzzing could be heard around Jiang Chen.

In the blink of an eye, a brilliant golden light suddenly appeared in Jiang Chen’s body. The primordial qi of heaven and earth around him surged into Jiang Chen’s body like a gust of wind.

“The golden light appeared, and the primordial qi became violent!”

“How long has it been? Less than three breaths’ time? And he has already broken through the first spiritual meridian?”

“How can he be so fast? Normally, it would take several months for someone to break through the first spiritual meridian, right?”

All of a sudden, the crowd’s disdain turned into shock. It was unbelievable!

However, for Jiang Chen, such a matter was as easy as eating and drinking.

As the most powerful man in the Red Sun Continent, the once Heavenly Sovereign God of the Nine Heavens, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to cultivate again even if he was reborn!

Besides, although Jiang Chen was practicing the low-grade constellation of nine turns cultivation technique, the mysteries contained in it were endless.

5,000 years ago, Jiang Chen was the only one who had comprehended the mysteries. Time had changed. 5,000 years later, no one knew how many people would succeed in comprehending it..
