In a hundred years.
Jiang Xu’s strength had been elevated to nine stars in the Spiritual Venerable Realm after 30 years of seclusion (300 years in the bracelet dimension), and Liu Xuan’s strength had advanced to one star in the Spiritual Venerable Realm after 20 years of seclusion (200 years in the bracelet dimension), he successfully advanced to level eight. Jin Xiao had been in seclusion for fifty years (500 years in the bracelet dimension) and had successfully advanced to the Void Immortal Realm – first rank ofVoid Immortal. Xiaoyue had been in seclusion for 90 years (900 years in the bracelet dimension) and had also successfully advanced to the Void Immortal Realm, also the first rank of Void Immortal.
Liu Mufeng had been in seclusion for forty years (400 years in the bracelet dimension) and his strength had been elevated to the nine stars of the Spiritual Venerable Realm. After 35 years of seclusion (350 years in the bracelet dimension), Bai Hu’s strength had advanced to the nine stars of the Spiritual Venerable Realm. After 40 years of seclusion (400 years in the bracelet dimension), Xiaoyuan’s strength had also advanced to nine stars in the Spiritual Venerable Realm. Pangpang had been in seclusion for 50 years (500 years in the bracelet dimension) and his strength had also advanced to the nine stars of the Spiritual Venerable Realm. Xiaoxiao had been in seclusion for 40 years (400 years in the bracelet dimension) and her strength has returned to the seven stars in theSpiritual Venerable Realm.
After a hundred years, the strength of Liu Mufeng’s family had significantly improved. However, although their strength had increased, their storage rings were empty. After Jiang Xu and the other three went into seclusion, Liu Mufeng and the others lived under the sea and found many precious resources there. They took all the unused resources to the town near the sea and sold them, while accumulating all the opportunities they could use.
After repeating this for a hundred years, their strength had improved, but their wealth had seriously shrunk. In order to advance to the ninth-level, Jin Xiao also used up all the good opportunities he had accumulated in his space. Pangpang sold all of his years of collections for immortal crystals and also hoarded a lot of good things for himself, keeping them to advance to level nine.
Except for Pangpang, Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu, and Liu Xuan had all turned into impoverished individuals one by one.
As the number of immortal crystals on his body decreased, Liu Mufeng could only settle down in a small town by the seaside with his group. He resumed his old business of selling pills and magic tools and began to earn immortal crystals. However, this time, Liu Mufeng did not buy a house, but instead lived directly in the inn. Jiang Xu, along with Pangpang, Xiaoyue, Bai Yu, and Bai Hu, were responsible for setting up the stall, while he and Xuanxuan were refining pills at home, Xiaoyuan was refining weapons at home, and Xiaoxiao and Jin Xiao were responsible for protecting the three of them at home.
The town here was located by the sea, so trade was very prosperous and there were many buy and sell shops. Jiang Xu searched for a long time before finding an empty space and set up their stall selling pills and magic tools.
Because it was the first day of setting up the stall, there were very few customers who came to visit them. Many people just stood in front of the stall and took a look before leaving. No one was willing to buy their products, which made Jiang Xu very frustrated.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu finally welcomed his first guest of the day. The visitors were two Sisters, who were both dressed in high-class eighth level immortal clothes and had beautiful looks. Jiang Xu saw a guest coming to see the pills, so he immediately called out and enthusiastically introduced them to the pills on their stall.
Seeing those two female cultivators, Bai Yu couldn’t help but twitch his lips as he said in his heart:“It’s really a narrow road. It’s actually Xiao Fangfang and Xiao Feifei, the two Sisters of the Xiao family.Strange, weren’t these two women from Han City? Why did they come here?”

“Why, you’re interested in them?” Jiang Xu smiled as he looked at Bai Yu.
Upon hearing this, Bai Yu shook his head. “I’m not interested in them, I’m afraid they might be interested in us.”
“What?” Upon hearing Bai Yu’s words, Jiang Xu looked bewildered.
“They are the Xiao Sisters of Han City, two of the five people my Master robbed previously, and they are also Xiao Wen’s Sisters. Xiao Wen, you know, is one of the six people who survived from our battle in the Ancient Immortal Mountain.” Bai Yu whispered to Jiang Xu.
Upon hearing Bai Yu’s message, Jiang Xu’s face couldn’t help but change and thought:It’s the Xiao family sisters. No wonder Bai Yu’s eyes were not right when he looked at them!
A hundred years had passed, and Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu had gained a comprehensive understanding of what happened back then. They knew that the six people who were going to kill them to seize the treasure were the two Young Masters of the Yu family, Yu Meng and Yu Qiao, the Fourth Young Master of the Xu family in Yun City, Xu Shizhong, and the Grandson of the Third Elder of the Yutian Sect, Fang Hai. These four were dead. The Fourth Young Master of the Xiao family, Xiao Wen, was alive. There was also Ouyang Fei, the Son of the Lord of Ping City.
How could the Xiao family come to a small town by the seaside for no reason? It seemed that this was not quite right, he needed to tell Mufeng when he went back.
In the evening, Jiang Xu returned to the inn with his people. The family gathered together to eat and chat.
“XiaoXu, how’s business on the first day of setting up a stall today?” Liu Mufeng asked with a smile as he looked at his wife.
“The morning was not very good, basically no one bought pills or magic tools, but I don’t know what’s going on, the business in the afternoon was particularly good, and all the pills and magic tools I brought out were all sold.” Speaking of this, Jiang Xu also felt strange. At first, he thought he couldn’t stay open today, unexpectedly, since the Xiao Sisters bought pills, they sold all the pills and magic tools in their stall.
“Oh? Is business so good?” Liu Mufeng was surprised to hear his lover said they were all sold out. In theory, on the first day of setting up a stall, it would be good if you could sell a few pills. He sold all the pills and magic tools in one go. Would this business be too prosperous?
“Mufeng, we met the Xiao Sisters at the stall today. Bai Yu said they were Xiao Fangfang and Xiao Feifei, and they bought a lot of pills.” Jiang Xu frowned at this.
“Oh? Are they here? It shouldn’t beah? These two are the Granddaughters of the Lord of Han City, they are the Young Ladies of the Lord’s Mansion. How could they come to such a remote and impoverished town? There might be some tricks here.” Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.
“Boss, I also feel that there are a lot of guests in the inn today. It seems that something is attracting outsiders here.” Xiaoxiao frowned as she spoke.
Liu Mufeng glanced at Xiaoxiao. “En,it seems that we should go out and inquire about it tomorrow. Something must have happened, or people like the Xiao Sisters won’t come to such a place.”
“Mufeng, the Xiao family has arrived. You better not go out, so as not to be recognized by them.” Jiang Xu felt a little uneasy.
“Don’t worry, I will be careful.” If the matter would not be investigated thoroughly, Liu Mufeng would feel uneasy.
“Then, I’ll accompany you tomorrow and let Xiaoyue and the four of them set up the stall.” After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xu decided to accompany his partner.
“Okay.” Liu Mufeng agreed to his lover’s proposal.
*****
The next day, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu left the inn together and went directly to the News Pavilion branch in the town.
Walking into the hall on the first floor, looking at a room of more than a hundred cultivators, and all of them were level 8 cultivators, Liu Mu Feng couldn’t help but frown. At first glance, this battle was clearly not going well.
Raising his head, Jiang Xu glanced at the bounty light curtain on the east side. There were three bounty lists in total, one of which was for some extremely vicious robbers and demons. On this bounty list, their family of three were all on the list. The second list offered elixirs as a reward, with various immortal herbs, fruits, and some rare treasures all being offered at high prices. And the third bounty list was about news, some of the hottest news in the Immortal Realm. The top news at this moment was the secret realm of the Sea God Palace.
“Husband, look at that, the secret realm of the Sea God Palace!” Pulling his partner’s sleeve, Jiang Xu pointed to the first popular bounty on the third list.
“En, I see it, I think the cultivators here are also here for this.” Liu Mufeng nodded as he felt that the sudden increase in foreign dignitaries in this small town must be related to the secret realm of the Sea God Palace.
“The consultation fee is ten thousand immortal crystals. It’s not too much!” Jiang Xu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the standard ten thousand immortal crystals in front of him and thought to himself:Fortunately, all the goods from yesterday had been sold and he earned 30,000 immortal crystals. Last night, he distributed 2,000 to each other in the family, and now he had exactly 16,000 fairy crystals in his hand. It was still affordable to pay for the 10,000 immortal crystals consultation fee.
“Let’s go buy this news on the second floor and learn about the secret realm of the Sea God Palace.” Liu Mufeng looked at his wife and took his lover’s hand to the second floor.
When they came, Jiang Xu was still very happy, but when they bought the news and left the News Pavilion, Jiang Xu looked depressed. Because Jiang Xu discovered that they spent 10,000 immortal crystals, and the jade slips they bought only contained an introduction of over two hundred words and a portrait of a Sea God Token. What kind of secret realm news was this? It was clear that this was tricking them of their immortal crystals.
After buying the news, Liu Mufeng was extremely excited and immediately took his wife back to the inn. Using a barrier, their room was directly sealed.
Returning to the inn and looking at his partner, Jiang Xu was very puzzled. “Mufeng, you seem very excited.”
“En, this Sea God Palace is a great place. I suspect this Sea God Palace is the place where the Sacred Alchemy Master sat down for enlightenment.” Liu Mufeng was very excited. In the past, in the Cultivation World, he always believed that the Sacred Alchemy Master was a ninth level Alchemy Master. However, it wasn’t until he arrived at the Immortal Realm that he realized that the Sacred Alchemy Master was referring to a 12th level Alchemy Master. Only twelve level pills were called Sacred level pills. Only those who could refine sacred level pills were called Sacred level Alchemists.
