Chapter 580 Urban Martial Arts World - Classmate A (10)
Because Jiang Yue had never seen a powerhouse of this level, based on inferences from some videos and written descriptions, a tenth-rank powerhouse was called a Saint, equivalent to the destructive power of a True Immortal to a Celestial Immortal. An eleventh-rank powerhouse was roughly equivalent to the destructive power of a Golden Immortal. A twelfth-rank powerhouse was called an Emperor, but there were not many records of this level, so Jiang Yue did not know exactly how strong they were.
Moreover, Jiang Yue didn't know if there were any stronger people above the twelfth rank, but she felt it was very possible that there were, since it was impossible that there were only those whose realms were clearly visible.
If Jiang Yue wants to go out and have fun, she needs to reach at least the Golden Immortal stage. Even if she uses up all the resources in her space, it probably won't be enough to support her breaking through to the eleventh rank. Besides, once she reaches the tenth rank, it mainly depends on comprehension and time. Simply piling up resources won't be of much use anymore. However, with her methods, she should have no problem surviving at the tenth rank.
After consolidating her cultivation, it was time for another holiday. These days, it's impossible to go out and have fun, so she could only wander around the Kyoto area. Speaking of which, the new year's competition is about to begin, but Jiang Yue doesn't know anything about the players, so she didn't place any bets and just watched.
During this time, she found someone to sell the herbs she had cultivated before. After deducting the costs and the property fees for the family, she had just planted the second herb when her mentor called her, asking if she wanted to participate in a project. Jiang Yue asked for the details and finally decided to refuse.
"Teacher, this project won't improve my skills, so I won't go."
"Hey, I was thinking of having you mentor the younger students."
"Could you help me edit the video?"
"Okay, send me the video later."
After hanging up with her mentor, Jiang Yue continued cultivating. The transition from the eighth to the ninth rank wasn't a qualitative leap, and the difficulty of advancing wasn't high. With sufficient resources, Jiang Yue estimated that a year would be enough for her to break through. If she went out to fight, it would be even faster. There was also the issue of cultivation techniques.
As her cultivation level rose higher and higher, the cultivation techniques she deduced started to fall behind. She had bought all the high-level cultivation techniques available on the black market, and now she relied entirely on Bai Ze's deductions. Jiang Yue was starting to feel the strain on her energy consumption, and it pained her to think about it.
During this time, Wang Lixia was also busy. Jiang Yue also gave her some resources, which Jiang Yue bought with her own money. She didn't directly give her the resources in her space. After Jiang Yue's continuous feeding, she finally broke through to the first-grade martial artist. Jiang Yue didn't teach her any martial arts skills, only footwork for running away.
Jiang Yue continued to bury herself in her training, and after several months, she finally touched the edge of the ninth rank.
By this time, the war had ended, and a large number of unverified cultivation techniques had appeared on the dark web. The sellers probably had the intention of phishing, but Jiang Yue didn't care. She neither looked at nor practiced them; she gave them all to Bai Ze for deduction and analysis. Buying them was considered a profit.
After Jiang Yue paid and received the goods, her account was investigated, and someone even tried to track her. However, the accounts Jiang Yue used belonged to cult members, so they could be investigated and viewed at will. But she didn't act very strong. If others can fish, she can too. She almost got caught this time. Will she use bait again next time? It depends on whose methods are more skillful.
As Jiang Yue expected, after a while, the other party released another cultivation technique. This technique was stronger and better than the last one. She didn't hesitate and bought it directly. This time, the other party also used artificial intelligence. If Jiang Yue hadn't been so cautious, she probably would have been caught out.
After purchasing the cultivation technique, Jiang Yue didn't harbor any illusions. She destroyed all related account information and didn't plan to let Bai Ze handle things anymore. Many people stumble because they are too confident in themselves. She didn't plan to log into the black market until she had cultivated to the twelfth rank. Her main strategy was to be cautious and prudent.
Jiang Yue didn't plan to look at the cultivation manual and handed it over to Bai Ze to handle. She asked the school for leave, told Wang Lixia, and went into seclusion. After breaking through to the ninth rank, her strength saw a surge. To break through from the ninth rank to the saint realm, some basic conditions need to be met.
The first point is that physical strength must meet the standard, the second point is that mental strength must meet the standard, and the third point is to comprehend one's own path. The first two points are fine, as Jiang Yue originally cultivated three paths simultaneously. The third point, comprehending one's own path, is quite idealistic. Unlike the world of cultivation, which has specific rules, the strong in this world comprehend either combat, protection, or saving the country and its people, all of which are closely related to their beliefs in martial arts.
Jiang Yue currently lacks conviction. As a mission taker, she can't say she'd risk her life to protect this world, nor is her goal of completing the mission particularly strong, and she's not exactly a coward. Jiang Yue has a premonition that this might hold her back for a while. She sighed and added a mission for Bai Ze, hoping to find other ways to break through.
After exiting the pass, she carefully reviewed the original owner's memories. She wanted to see if the original owner had any ideals, and she could help her realize them. However, after looking around, she found that there really weren't any. The revenge for her parents' deaths was taken back then. This refers to the fact that the demon beast that killed her parents was killed by the guards. She didn't have any dream of killing all the demon beasts. Even if she did, she couldn't do it.
Before Jiang Yue arrived, she had been living a carefree life. Her death was sudden and she had no regrets. 8888 wouldn't pull someone's soul up to ask questions. When she was feeling melancholy, Wang Lixia called her to eat.
What are you thinking about?
Jiang Yue shook her head and didn't say anything. Luckily, she wasn't the main character, otherwise Wang Lixia would have been sacrificed. Wouldn't it be reasonable for Jiang Yue to take the opportunity to avenge her and break through her own limitations?
"I have a feeling you're thinking something impolite."
"No way! Let's eat quickly, it'll get cold soon."
After dinner, Jiang Yue went downstairs for a stroll. Wang Lixia had been getting a bit ambiguous with a guy lately, and they'd been talking on the phone every day for the past few days. Jiang Yue was planning to take some time to see what kind of person he was. She hoped he was a good person and not a jerk.
After consolidating her cultivation level over the next few days, she returned to school to continue her studies. She is now doing an internship with a top expert, as the school can no longer teach her anything. She is currently researching herbs with Boss Han, and her mentor is preparing to apply for her graduation.
The following weekend, Jiang Yue went to Wang Lixia's school. The boy she was flirting with also came over. To Jiang Yue's surprise, Wang Lixia had found a younger man, four years younger than her. Jiang Yue's gaze towards him became a little strange.
They had lunch together, and Jiang Yue could tell that they were interested in each other, so it was good that she wasn't being deceived.
Jiang Yue didn't say much more. She needed to observe the person more closely to know what he was like. While the two of them were chatting, Jiang Yue asked a familiar aunt about the situation. After listening to a lot of gossip about the two, she realized that the aunt didn't know anything about the boy. So Jiang Yue asked her to help her look into it.
