Chapter 100: White Banner
perspective, position, and experiences.For someone like Jiang Wuyou, a noble heir, and Chong Xuansheng, a son of a prestigious family, to truly understand the hardships faced by the common people of a...Time flies, more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and it's already the end of May.
>
It's about to get to the hottest time of the year.
Jiang Wang glanced out the window at the setting sun, slowly finishing his practice and concealing the increasingly clear gate of heaven and earth.
>This past month has been the most peaceful period for Jiang Wang since leaving Zhuang Guo.
He is basically devoted to his cultivation.
Of course, I haven't given up on "farming".

The time when the turquoise ore vein is about to be completely depleted is approaching, but the miners in Hu's mine are all in high spirits.
Under Chong Xuan Sheng's arrangement, Jiang Wang began to take over and integrate the Chong Xuan family's entire business in Yang Guo.
Due to internal restrictions from the Chongxuan family, most of them were directly beheaded by Chongxuan in Qi State.
Jiang Wang treated Qiyáng Town as his base of operations, though from Jiāchéng's perspective, it was undeniably like a crow taking over the magpie's nest.
But in the previous mining depletion event, their responsibility was undeniable and they had to swallow their pride. After all, it was already tacitly accepted that the Heavy Xuan family had a 30-year operating right here.
The current pavilion master of Qingyang Town is Hu Laogen, the former mine manager. Naturally, he obeys Jiang Wang's orders.

As long as Jiang Wang is still willing to use the people of Qingyang Town as the pavilion chief, at least on the surface respecting the Xi family's rule, the Xi family will not say much. They will simply pretend that Hu You and his son Hu Shao Meng are not dead and are still competing with them openly and secretly.
It's actually not difficult to enable the common people to live a good life.
Rulers who respect the laws they have established and refrain from corruption and injustice are truly honorable.
The methods for allowing the common people to live and work in peace have long been written into laws and regulations by sages of old. As long as one does not misinterpret them or act against them, there will be no problems.
When a vein runs dry, one seeks out new ore. When the ore is gone, there are other resources to be harvested.
>
The Earth is generous, providing countless resources for its inhabitants. As long as we are not too greedy and know moderation, life will flourish endlessly.
For extraordinary cultivators, it's even simpler — just a bit of probing will do.
> Offer what you are entitled to and, before natural disasters, make extraordinary contributions.

This is not a difficult thing for Jiang Wang.
At its core, Jiang Wang hadn't done anything extraordinary in Qingyang Town. But in just over a month, the people's spirits had been completely revitalized.
in Jiang Wang's own cultivation.
First, there's the Illusory Realm. He made it into the top ten and is ranked ninth in the Heavenly Ascension Match battles.
After contributing 1,050 points of output, Le Xi Fu De fell to the 32nd ranking on Long Hu Shan. After that, only 950 points were credited to her account each month.
The decline in rankings was something he had long anticipated, and he wasn't disappointed. After all, the opponents encountered in the Fukuchi Challenge were all far superior in realm.
He wasn't sure where he would ultimately end up. But at the very least, he hoped that before being completely "expelled" from this blessed place, he could maintain his ranking and move forward—a goal that seemed too distant right now.
Including the points earned through the Jiantai forum, I have accumulated a total of 5,410 points.
"The accumulation of 'law' progressed slowly, only adding seven points, bringing the total to four hundred thirty-five."
As for the myriad arts and techniques, Jiang Wang practiced them diligently day and night.

In terms of cultivation realm, the Heavenly Earth Gate in his own "vision" now appears as tangible as reality.
This is a towering stone gateway, about three zhang high and eight zhang wide. This is not the actual height, for the unknown void where the Heavenly Gate resides cannot be measured by such means. It is merely Jiang Wang's "estimated" feeling.
The door has an inscription faintly carved on it, unclear and constantly changing.
Every person has their own unique door to the world, each one different. The door to the world is everyone's most secret place and naturally cannot be studied with others.
But in the vast world of cultivation, predecessors have still left behind some records for analysis. Chongxuan Sheng naturally didn't lack these things, and he gave Jiang Wang a large pile all at once.
Some are completely different and unhelpful, some are more similar and can be learned from analogy.
According to previous notes, Jiang Wang speculated that these inscriptions might be his embodiment of cultivation and his Dao.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Perhaps these inscriptions will only solidify after he truly penetrates his own “Dao.”
The most prominent feature of Shímen is its three horizontal lines.
The above, below and middle positions completely divide the Heavenly Gate.
These three horizontal lines respectively represent heaven, earth, and human. They are the condensed imagery of Jiang Wang's Xiao Zhou Tian, and also the embodiment of his unique strongest three swords.
Seemingly light and superficial, it is in reality the most weighty.
If not for these three horizontal lines, the Heavenly Gate would have already been pushed open by Jiang Wang.
This is what you requested:

The foundation that once supported him to where he is today now hinders his progress.
>
He must bear all that he has built, and in this bearing, with his own hands push open the doors of heaven and earth.
Only then can we break the barrier between heaven and man, with the Dao flowing like a dragon.
It wasn't until this moment that Jiang Wang truly understood.
The stronger the cultivators at the Heavenly Transcendence Realm, the more solid and difficult this door is to push open.
Whereas Wang Yiwu's type of person reached another level.
His strength has reached the limit of the Tongtian Realm, surpassing even the limit that Tiandi Men can reach.
His world-defying strength was unparalleled, his defenses impregnable.
And he was still trying every way he could, striving to break through the limits, making Heaven's Gate even stronger, allowing himself to travel farther—this was almost an impossible feat.
The reason why a limit is a limit is because it has been proven by countless past geniuses.
Countless geniuses have come here, yet could not advance even an inch. Thus, they declared this to be the ultimate limit.
Ginger Mengxiong dared to say that Wang Yiwu was the strongest person in the world at the Heavenly Ascension Realm because he was at the limit of the Heavenly Ascension Realm. Even if you compare him to past peerless prodigies, he is only like this in this realm.
As for Jiang Wang, his thoughts on Wang Yi's level are certainly not absent. If there was an opportunity, he would move in that direction, but he wouldn't be overly insistent or demanding.
As for the road ahead, everyone has different choices.
Under pressure from the upper echelons of Yuguo, Yin Guan was forced to preemptively realize his potential and entered the realm of external cultivation at the fastest possible speed.
As Wang Yiwu had the protection of Jiang Mengxiong, he continuously strengthened his foundation and broadened the limits of the Transcendent Realm. He advanced as the strongest one among them.
Just like Chong Xuan Sheng, Jiang Wang Ze also aims to progress as quickly as possible while maintaining a solid foundation.
It's difficult to say who is better before reaching the destination.
Wang Yiwu's reputation as the strongest Heaven-Reaching Realm expert of his time was certainly renowned, but he was ultimately just a Heaven-Reaching Realm cultivator. Now, Yin Guan could easily slaughter him.
But if Yin Guan is obstructed before the divine presence, by the time Wang Yiwu catches up, the balance of power will reverse.

Every single person on this long path of cultivation must strive with all their might to journey across it.
For Jiang Wang now, what he cares about most is not actually the Heavenly Gates.
...but "resides" in the Palace of Heavenly Ascension, the Mingzhu.
Regarding the soul candle, Jiang Wang's feelings are very complex.
On one hand, he was very clear about the connection between this thing and the White Bone Dao. On the other hand, this thing had indeed saved his life.
The first time the Soul Candle reacted was probably when it absorbed Miao Yu's bone essence. This is according to Miao Yu, and Jiang Wang doesn't know about it.
The second time was when he touched Miaoyu's wound. Perhaps it triggered Miaoyu's Taoist essence, and the spirit candle transmitted a flesh-and-blood soul return technique that only worked on practitioners of the White Bone Daoism.

The third time was because Bai Lian used the Memory Sealing Technique, which triggered Ming Zhu's reaction, protecting Jiang Wang from having his memories sealed. It also transmitted the White Bone Escaping Technique, a technique that uses life force to travel through yin and yang.
Fourth, it is a warning of the disaster that befell Fenglin City.
After the incident at Fenglin City, Mingzhu hadn't moved again. (Jiang Wang didn't remember the time when he absorbed death energy poison in Tianfu Secret Realm.)
But last night, the candles in Tiangong moved one fraction.
Jiang Wang absolutely believed in his judgment. Although he had gained nothing from actively researching the Underworld Candles, he never relaxed his observation of them.
The votive candles did indeed "quietly" move within the Tongtian Palace.
He didn't know whether this was good or bad.
This made him wary.
Under his intentional or unintentional control, the current Dao pulse True Spirit no longer circles around the Underworld Candle.
... but instead, it shuttled back and forth between the nine star rivers, constantly tempering itself in hopes of achieving a higher level of existence.
The county of Rizhao has seven cities, whose sizes are generally about the same.
Jiaceng is located in the middle-east of Rizhao County, and to the southwest of Jiaceng, there is a Yuecheng.
North of the city walls, there lived a family surnamed Li. The head of the household was often away doing business and rarely returned home. No one knew exactly what he did for a living.
>
A while back, he suddenly came back, tidied up some things and left. It is said that he went abroad for a big business deal.
He didn't know whether he was going to Qi country or somewhere else, and even his half-deaf, ugly wife couldn't tell.
These days, ordinary people rarely travel far from home. Many live their entire lives in villages, never even visiting the town. Therefore, it's impossible to verify truth from falsehood.
Nobody has the time for that.
But not long after, Old Li was back again. This time he stayed home for a long while. His wife, whom he had been paired with years ago by others but who had always been unpleasant, was also beaming and happy all day long.
Li Jia Shao interacted with his neighbors, but nobody dared to ask about his family's business. Judging from their daily food, clothing and housing, however, the family was doing well.

For many people, life is always ordinary.
On this day, Li's half-deaf ugly daughter-in-law rushed out the door, spending a lot of money to invite the best doctor in West City. It is unknown what ailment Old Li has contracted.
That's how the neighbors found out. Old Li's family was quite wealthy, it turned out.
Otherwise, who could afford the doctor's clinic on the west side of town Let alone, they even brought in Qin Lao, the renowned head physician.
That was the previous director of the clinic, who hadn't seen patients in person for a long time. It would take over a hundred taels of silver to get him to agree

Having a mind for business, he was already planning what gifts to bring when Old Li recovered. He would also try to get him involved in his profitable business ventures, hoping to strike up a deal and perhaps make some money together.
A person who is wealthy in a remote mountain still has relatives, let alone a neighbor who is so close by
>
Don't look at Old Li, he might be old, but his connections are quite extensive. Otherwise, how could he have so much money
Ordinary people, when they fall ill, just grit their teeth and endure it. Who has that kind of money to see a doctor, let alone such an expensive one
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Someone in the City Lord's Mansion is ill, everyone's looking at this family!
As for whether this illness can be cured, Mr. Qin has even come out in person, so it should surely be cured!
The next day, the neighbor, being quite clever, got up early and, carrying a gift box, was about to go pay a visit.
But as soon as he stepped out the door, he was stunned.
The gate of Li's house next door was shut tight.
