"Cough cough, cough, this identity is really interesting. The good thing is that it saves a lot of cultivation time. The trouble is that none of my cultivation is from my own cultivation, and I'm also seriously injured. Cough, I have to invest before I've even gained anything."
After receiving the memories, Jiang Yue, who was sitting cross-legged in the secret room, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and muttered to herself, "The world I transmigrated to is not bad. I went straight to the Immortal Realm, but my identity is a bit awkward. I am the strongest person in a fallen family. This family has produced an immortal before, but unfortunately, the immortal ancestor was seriously injured in another battle."
Before her demise, the ancestor passed on all her cultivation to the original owner of the body. Because of her special physique, although her aptitude was not good and she could not be possessed, her physique made her more receptive to the transfer of power. During the transfer, she lost the least amount of energy. At that time, she was surrounded by external enemies and had no choice but to pass the power on to her. Otherwise, this good thing would not have been available to the original owner.
Although the transfer of power has many drawbacks, such as making it difficult to further improve one's strength, many people still flock to it. After all, who can guarantee that they can cultivate to the peak of the Tribulation Transcending Realm? It can be said that the transfer of power is a path to instant success, and there are far too many people who want to receive the transfer of power.
After the ancestor's death following the completion of the power transfer, the original owner took on the heavy responsibility of protecting the family. For hundreds of years, the original owner worked diligently, repelling countless enemies for the family. Half a year ago, someone attacked the family's spirit stone mine, causing many deaths and injuries to the family members. Even the family leader was injured, and in the end, only the original owner could take action.
However, this attack was clearly abnormal. It seemed that the attacker was targeting the original owner of this body. The original owner had been cautious enough and even brought her family's immortal artifact, but she was still too naive. When she had killed the attacker and only one person was left, another cunning old fox with the same cultivation level as the original owner appeared from behind.
She wouldn't be afraid of fighting two opponents at once. With her perfected Tribulation Transcending cultivation and the immortal artifact left behind by her ancestor before his death, even if she couldn't defeat them, they couldn't do anything to her either. The worst outcome would still be that she could escape.
However, this time the opponent's immortal artifact was particularly targeted, specifically carrying an artifact that could counter the original body's immortal artifact. In the end, the original body self-destructed its natal spiritual artifact, which it had been refining for hundreds of years, in order to escape. After returning to the clan, the original body handed the immortal artifact over to the clan leader, hurriedly gave him some instructions, and then returned to the secluded cultivation room to heal its injuries after he activated the great formation.
Back in the secluded cultivation room, his injuries were actually not too bad. The main problem was that he had been poisoned by a strange poison. When the original owner took the best healing medicine in the family, it triggered the poison hidden in his body, which was the reason why the original owner died. His death was so sudden that no news of it could get out. However, if the news had gotten out, it would have been difficult to deal with when Jiang Yue came.
It's obvious there's a traitor within the family, and a high-ranking one at that, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to tamper with such an important healing pill. Moreover, Jiang Yue discovered something interesting: there's a man in the family named Jiang Fan, the son of the former patriarch. He had a very high aptitude during the initial assessment, and his cultivation speed was also incredibly fast in the early stages. Then, suddenly, his cultivation level started to decline.
In three years, he fell back to the third level of Qi Refining. In addition, he had a fiancée from a noble family whom he had never met. If the plot were to follow, after Jiang Yue's death, the family would decline, the fiancée would come to break off the engagement, and in the end, the family would be wiped out by the fiancée's suitor. It was definitely a protagonist's script. It was just a bit of a surprise that the protagonist's surname was not Ye, Lin, Xiao, Qin, Chu, Su, Li, Wang, Xu, or Chen.
After briefly processing the memories, Jiang Yue asked 8888 if there was any world storyline. 8888 said no, so it seems the protagonist isn't a transmigrator or reincarnated character, but rather a native protagonist. However, this isn't necessarily true. Although the elements are almost complete, she still needs to observe further to see if there's anything like Yao Lao.
The most important thing right now is to deal with the poison in her body. Jiang Yue took an antidote pill, which she had taken from her spatial storage. After the pill was digested, Jiang Yue opened her eyes. The medicine she used was quite good, and the poison had been neutralized. The rest was to treat her injuries. The original owner had prepared healing pills, but just in case, she decided not to use them.
After taking the medicine, her injuries were mostly healed. A month later, Jiang Yue was fully recovered. She also sorted out her memories. It took her half a month to digest several hundred years of memories through Bai Ze.
After organizing her memories, Jiang Yue prepared to emerge from seclusion. She had been in seclusion for almost a year and didn't know what the situation was like outside. However, since Jiang Yue was still able to maintain her seclusion in the seclusion room, the situation should not have reached the worst point yet.
As soon as Jiang Yue opened the secluded cultivation room, she saw the clan leader meditating at the door. Upon seeing Jiang Yue emerge from seclusion, the clan leader asked with a worried expression, "Ancestor, how are your injuries?"
"It didn't cause any fundamental damage, and it's almost fully recovered. How is the family doing now?"
"I activated the clan's protective formation as instructed by the Ancestor, but something's not right. The Ancestor has been in seclusion since then, which is very strange. They seem to be waiting for something, perhaps even for you, Ancestor..."
Jiang Yue nodded, signaling the clan leader to follow her into the secluded cultivation room. After the door closed, Jiang Yue told him about her poisoning: "The other party was very confident. They poisoned those top-grade healing pills. If I hadn't obtained a celestial-grade antidote pill by chance before without anyone else knowing, I would have fallen into their trap this time."
After hearing Jiang Yue's words, the clan leader was furious. After the atmosphere calmed down, he felt sad upon returning home: "Besides me, the only other people who could tamper with the pills are the three elders. No one else has the opportunity to come into contact with them. Hasn't the clan treated them well enough? Why would they do something that betrays the clan?"
Jiang Yue patted the clan leader on the shoulder and comforted him, "Now is not the time to think about why, we need to find the traitor."
The clan chief took a deep breath and nodded in agreement. After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Yue said, "Announce to the outside world that my injuries have worsened and I am about to die. Then, you secretly keep an eye on the movements of the three elders."
Not long after the news quietly spread, those in the shadows couldn't hold back any longer. The clan leader noticed that the Third Elder was acting strangely. Once the formation was activated, messages couldn't be transmitted to the outside world, but the Third Elder had been in contact with the formation. He transmitted a message to the outside world through the escape passage. Jiang Yue intercepted the message and read it. It said that Jiang Yue was seriously injured.
After learning who the mole was, Jiang Yue did not act rashly. She allowed the news to be successfully sent out, wanting to see what their plans were and whether she could outmaneuver them. The person wielding the immortal artifact posed too great a threat to Jiang Yue. If she didn't eliminate him, the Jiang family's immortal artifact would be useless.
Furthermore, it's important to know who's behind them. This immortal artifact is clearly aimed at the Jiang family. Why target the Jiang family? According to Jiang Yue's memories, the Jiang family doesn't have anything else that others would covet, besides the immortal artifact. If they can already forge an immortal artifact specifically for you, why would they want yours?
