Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration Chapter 239 – Vanished People

Nine Provinces Calendar, Year 8995.

Under the influence of external pressure, the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region was initially united and established a joint organization called the Great Mountain Alliance.

However, what surprised everyone was that the first Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Alliance was actually a Foundation Establishment disciple!

Some people were worried, some laughed, some were jealous, and some were impressed.

However, there was still time to verify what the Great Mountain Alliance would become.

After the meeting ended, on the way back to the Scripture Storage Valley,

Jiang Li sat alone on the head of Rayquaza and looked at the token in his hand for a long time.

This token was completely black, the metal surface emitted specks of starlight.

On the front of the token was the words “Great Mountain Alliance”, and on the back was the “Alliance Leader Token”.

This was the Alliance Leader Token that belonged to him alone.

This thing was forged from a piece of Meteorite Steel given to him by Shu Mountain. It had the mark of more than 1,300 Sect Masters of the Great Mountain Region.

As long as one held it, they could contact and mobilize more than 50% of the resources and power of the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region.

Even he did not expect that he would suddenly have such a right. This world was really… incredible.

On the flying ship behind him, the Valley Master, Daoist Wushe, and Elder He, the Head Elder of the Demon Vanquishing Hall, were also standing at the bow of the ship and looking at the first generation Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Alliance.

“Junior Brother He, you’re worried about Jiang Li, right?”

Daoist Wushe also felt that the three of them were a little impulsive at that time. However, when he thought about it carefully, Jiang Li might really be a good choice.

“Senior Brother Wushe, why did you choose him? I’m afraid that kid Jiang Li can’t shoulder such a great responsibility.”

Unlike the surprise, jealousy, and envy of others, as Jiang Li’s master, Elder He’s first thought was worry.

Although becoming the Alliance Leader meant that he had great authority, even if the Sect Masters of the three great sects took over, they might not be able to turn the situation around in this difficult period.

After all, Jiang Li was still young and his cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment realm. If he sat in this position, he would probably suffer quite a bit of criticism and pressure, and it was unknown if he could endure it.

“Don’t worry, there’s still our entire Great Mountain Region behind him.”

“There are still seven days left. At that time, we’ll choose elders to be Dharma Protectors and accompany him to the Eastern Region to seek a foothold. We have to make the best use of our time and prepare.”

The three great sects were not really stupid. It was impossible for them to hand over the fate of the entire cultivation world to Jiang Li.

They would also be making decisions behind his back at any time. How much power Jiang Li could obtain depended on him.

Near the Scripture Storage Valley, Jiang Li found a place where the earth veins gathered and temporarily used it as the sleeping place of the Wind Protection Giant.

Jiang Li did not stay in the valley for long. He only used the Scripture Imparting Hall once again and left.

Seven days later, the headquarters of the Great Mountain Alliance would be completed. There would also be several top-notch Nascent Soul and even Soul Formation cultivators beside him.

Before that, he had to finish some things.

A long and huge wooden dragon soared in the sky.

He crossed mountains and rivers, flew past grasslands and forests, and finally flew back to an unfamiliar and familiar place along a path that he had once walked on.

Great Goose Kingdom.

The place where the original Jiang Li had once lived.

He put the wooden dragon back into the coffin and landed in a courtyard in the city.

This was the famous Sleeping Tiger Jiang family of the pugilistic world.

Jiang Li passed by and suddenly wanted to take a look.

Concealed above the treetop, he saw that not far below, there was a burly middle-aged man standing under the shade of a tree with his upper body bare.

The rough sound of a sleeping tiger could be heard continuously.

It was Jiang Yuanshan, who had cultivated the Sleeping Tiger Technique to the eighth level and had reached the internal martial artist realm.

In a main house not far away, a woman carried a child who was learning how to speak and was checking the accounts at home.

In recent months, their family’s income had suddenly increased. This gave them some joy and worries.

On the corner of the table, there was a letter that had been opened and read repeatedly.

It was sent by Jiang Li a few months ago through an outer sect disciple who had been arranged to run errands outside the sect.

Under his secret operation, the Jiang family’s life had been smooth sailing recently. There were no disasters and they were living quite well.

Seeing that the Jiang family was fine, Jiang Li felt slightly relieved. However, at this moment, he was still standing in the leaves in a daze and did not move for a long time.

Who would believe that the genius Jiang Li who dared to accept the position of the Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Alliance would actually not dare to return home?

After all, the current Jiang Li was not their eldest son. He suddenly had a feeling of deceiving them, which was why he had not stepped foot into the house.

It was not until the moon rose and the sun set that he finally knocked on the Jiang family’s door from outside.

Accompanied by shouts such as “Young Master is back!”, the lights of the Jiang family were lit. The excited parents of Jiang Li rushed over in their casual clothes and surrounded him, asking about his well-being.

Even though Jiang Li’s appearance had changed drastically after he reached the Foundation Establishment realm, they recognized him immediately.

The kitchen fire started and a table full of food was soon placed.

They watched Jiang Li eat until midnight.

He had actually not planned to meet them as he did not want to lie to them.

However, when he was on the tree, along with the emergence of some of his body’s memories, his Great Carefree Bodhisattva Heart Sutra automatically circulated. However, this time, what he comprehended was not the life of others, but the first half of this body’s life.

After experiencing this personally, he felt relieved.

Jiang Li did not mention his current identity as the Head of the Great Mountain Alliance, nor did he mention his heroic deeds in the past year, nor did he mention his cultivation level or his achievements in battle.

What Father Jiang and Mother Jiang cared about the most was whether he ate well at the sect, whether he was tired from cultivating, and whether he was bullied.

However, bullying the current Jiang Li was something that probably not many people could do in this Great Mountain Region.

Since he started cultivating, Jiang Li had not eaten for a long time. Now, he enjoyed such a table of mortal delicacies.

To Jiang Li, who was used to eating Senior Sister Little Four’s Hundred Flavors Pill, such food actually did not have any outstanding taste or value.

However, this made the couple happy for a few days.

“You came back last night. Are you leaving already?”

“That’s right. I still have important matters to attend to in the sect. Father, Mother, take care.”

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang clearly could not bear to part with this child.

However, Jiang Li could not stay for long.

Before he left, he pressed on the tree that Jiang Yuanshan cultivated at every day and stepped on the air.

As for the tree, it had already become a Wood Demon at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm.

The Jiang family was a martial arts family and could not withstand much. The wealth of the mortal world and having such a guardian were enough.

When he flew out of the Great Goose Kingdom, he stretched out his hand and beckoned. A piece of beast skin that covered the ground from the royal palace’s treasure vault broke through the red bricks and green gravel, escaped the control of gravity, and flew into Jiang Li’s hand at an extremely swift speed.

This looked like an ordinary piece of bear skin. Not to mention the cultivation world, even in the mortal world, it could only be considered ordinary.

However, Jiang Li rarely did meaningless things.

A stream of Yin Burial spiritual qi was drawn out from the coffin and struck the beast skin.

The originally soft and flat surface immediately began to change.

It was just like a normal reaction when it was corroded by Yin qi. Soon, the piece of leather began to wrinkle and turn black, becoming bare and a little ugly.

However, this Yin Burial spiritual qi only allowed this leather scroll to recover its original appearance.

The Yin Burial spiritual qi dissipated, and an even more sinister and evil aura continuously emerged from the beast skin.

It had died countless years ago, but this skin could still release such an aura. When the original owner of this skin was alive, who knew how powerful it was?

This leather scroll was not made from the skin of an ordinary demon beast. Instead, it was made from the skin of an ancient demon beast. It was extremely sinister and abnormally tough.

Only in this way could it survive through endless years and survive until now.

Under the stimulation of the Yin Burial spiritual qi, a large number of patterns and words slowly appeared on the leather scroll.

This was the scroll that recorded the refinement method of the Yin Burial Coffin.

The Corpse Coffin Twin Devils were quite smart. They actually hid this thing in the treasure vault of a mortal empire. Generally speaking, no one could find it.

The Corpse Burial Ground had used this map to build the Yin Burial Coffin in his hands.

Apart from that, it was said that they had also forged a coffin nail.

If he could find it, it would save him a lot of trouble.

However, this was something for later. Jiang Li did not have much time on this trip. He still had an important thing to do.

He put the scroll back into the coffin and took out a communication spirit stone.

After a few short exchanges, his figure flashed in the air, quickly flying in a certain direction.

He crossed kingdoms one after another, and the environment became more and more barren.

…

“Senior Brother Ma, what are you doing?”

A well-dressed youth was suddenly awakened by a crisp shout.

With a flip of his hand, he put away the item in his hand and looked at the person approaching. It was a junior sister who he knew.

“Nothing, I was just thinking about something.”

“Why did Junior Sister Situ come personally to deliver food? It’s too tiring.”

The young man took the box in the other party’s hand and called the others around him.

The group of cultivators feeding the spirit colt were only Qi Refinement cultivators.

Previously, when they were traveling, they could only eat the Fasting Pills for a long time and were sick of it. Now that they were temporarily resting, they could finally eat something good.

“It’s been hard on you Senior Brothers. We didn’t bring any low-grade disciples this time. These chores have to be handled by you personally. Come and taste our cooking.”

After the few of them ate the food in the meal box and praised it endlessly, the female cultivator carried the meal box and sent it to the other cultivators.

This was a team with nearly a thousand people.

The camp in the forest could be said to be vast and mighty.

However, no demon attacked when such a large group of people appeared in the dense forest.

This was because the strongest people leading them were five Golden Cores. The demons who dared to offend them had long been eliminated by them.

In the team, from the Core Formation realm to the Qi Refinement realm, everyone was dressed in luxurious clothes.

One look and one could tell that none of them were lacking in spirit stones.

However, such a team did not take convenient and fast flying ships. Instead, they used more primitive and hidden spiritual colt carriages to travel.

Moreover, from the carriage to their clothes, there was actually no recognizable mark on all the cultivators. He did not know where they came from.

In the team, there was nearly a third of the carriages that looked especially heavy. Clearly, there were many goods on them.

However, why would such a cultivator convoy without a symbol and carrying a huge amount of wealth appear in this wilderness where there were no people?

“Elder Etong, we’ve been outside for so long, but the Sect Master and the First Elder haven’t sent any news. I wonder how the sect is now.”

Alchemy Elder Ma Minglou appeared to be worried. In order to hide their tracks, they had been traveling in the wilderness and had never come into contact with anyone. They knew almost nothing about the outside world.

Under such circumstances, it was hard not to let their imagination run wild.

“Elder Minglou, don’t worry. Even if we lose in the final battle, with the abilities of the Sect Master and the elders, and the preparations they made in advance, it’s not a problem to escape safely.”

“Looking at the time, the three great sects should still not have broken through our sect’s grand array. It’s normal for there to be no news from the Sect Master.”

Situ Etong was calmer. It was the right choice to let him lead the team in this escape.

“Elder Etong is right. The situation outside is unknown. We’ve already stayed here for three days. I’m afraid it’s not good. Let’s continue on our journey?”

The important combat forces were all left to guard the sect. As the main elder leading the team this time, Situ Etong pondered for a moment before making a decision.

“Yes, we won’t stop. Although this is already the edge of the Great Mountain Region, it’s still quite a distance from the hidden base. Notify the others to clean up the traces and continue to set off.”

The few Golden Cores quickly reached a consensus.

However, right at this moment, a commotion suddenly sounded outside.

A moment later, a disciple rushed into the tent to report.

“Elder! Elder! Elder Situ Baige and Elder Ma Changgu are here!”

The disciple was panting heavily, but his face was filled with excitement.

“What? Really?!”

When the five Golden Core elders heard the news, they immediately rushed out of the tent. As expected, they saw the two elders who were looking for them.

They were the same clan elders that they had known for hundreds of years, Situ Baige and Ma Changgu.

It turned out that this group was the Situ and Ma clansmen who had disappeared from the Hundred Tempering Mountain. They had left a large number of disciples with foreign surnames in the sect, and their descendants had all fled in advance.

The idea was that it would not be difficult for the higher-ups to escape with their cultivation level. As long as they used cannon fodder to delay the time, they would bring their disciples far away from their hometown and be safe again decades later.

However, something unexpected happened, causing the mountain gate formation to collapse in advance and forcing the Hundred Tempering Mountain’s Sect Master to use his last resort…

“Bai Ge! Chang Gu! Why are you injured? How’s the sect? Are the Sect Master and elders alright?”

As soon as these two approached, all the elders present surrounded them and asked all their worries during this period of time.

The two travel-worn elders also took a few breaths before saying.

“The sect is fine! The people of the three great sects are still in a stalemate outside the grand array. But you guys were too careless. The tracks of the convoy were discovered!”

“What! How can that be?”

“Move quickly, it’s too late!”

The convoy was about to move, but the surrounding trees seemed to have come alive and began to grow and twist quickly.

The few elders immediately formed a circular formation to be wary of the outside. They surrounded the injured Elder Situ Baige and Ma Changgu.

However, at this moment, Situ Etong suddenly thought of something and asked.

“Baige, Changgu, how did you find this place?”

However, what answered him was the strong wind that assaulted him from behind!
