The potato harvest in Aoyama Village was abundant. Aside from keeping some seeds and allowing the villagers to taste them, the rest were all transported to the capital, organized by the Ministry of Revenue for planting. Li Xuan Zong was overjoyed; he had just dealt with those old foxes in the court with a "Miracle," and now with a new crop of high-yield grains, famine would be a thing of the past. This was a significant achievement, undoubtedly one of the greatest during his reign as emperor. He imagined his name would overshadow that of the founding ancestors of the Great Zhou in history.
In his excitement, the emperor personally wrote a plaque for the Land Temple to be sent to Aoyama Village. Elder Brother Li, upon hearing the news, arranged for someone to deliver a letter back home and packed up some lighters to send to Li Yishu. It had been half a year since he left with the Porcelain Jar, and Li Yishu surely needed more lighters by now. There were still three years until they would head to the capital. Fortunately, both the Wen Family and the Li Family were doing well, so he no longer had to worry about his younger siblings.
Elder Brother Li's life was progressing smoothly, while Hanno was living leisurely. After a period of idleness, Hanno finally published her new work, "Mortal Immortal." It lacked a system or excessive plot devices; it was simply a story about a transmigrator embarking on a traditional cultivation journey. The protagonist, Xian Yu Yang, transmigrated into the Mortal Realm of Pure Yuan Dalu as the youngest son of a wealthy family. He had two older brothers; his Second Brother was carefree and loved freedom and adventure, hiring martial arts instructors to teach him skills and spending money on numerous Martial Arts Manuals.
Xian Yu Er Ge had decent martial arts talent and good luck; among the manuals he bought was one containing an unparalleled martial arts technique. After ten years of hard work, he became a top-tier expert in the martial world. He then ventured out into society and gained quite a reputation over several years but also made some enemies along the way. Unable to defeat Xian Yu Er Ge themselves, these foes targeted the Xianyu Family, hoping to make him weep over their demise. One dark night, a group of masked assassins descended upon the Xianyu Family.
Hanno was not one to sacrifice side characters for the sake of her protagonist; she chose instead to have Xian Yu Yang save his entire family. Earlier in the story, Xian Yu Er Ge had developed a penchant for collecting Martial Arts Manuals, discarding one that he couldn't cultivate as useless—only for it to be picked up by Xian Yu Yang. Upon acquiring this manual, Xian Yu Yang discovered he could actually cultivate it. Having studied Taoist knowledge before his transmigration, he understood the manual better than others and managed to reach the peak of Qi Refinement in just a few years.
When villains came to slaughter the Xianyu family, Xian Yu Yang stepped forward to save them, showcasing extraordinary martial prowess just as Cang Song Zhenren from Azure Sky Sect arrived in search of potential cultivators in the Mortal Realm—every decade, elders from their sect would visit without alarming mortals in search of disciples with Spiritual Roots. However, many mortals dismissed tales of deities and Celestial Fate as mere myths.
After conversing with Cang Song Zhenren, Xian Yu Yang realized he wasn't practicing martial arts but rather cultivating immortality. Cang Song Zhenren was thrilled; despite cultivating in an environment where Spiritual Energy was significantly lower than in the cultivation realm—about ten to twenty times less—Xian Yu Yang managed to reach Qi Refinement Stage peak within just a few years. His talent could only be described as monstrous. Overjoyed, Cang Song Zhenren immediately took Xian Yu Yang as his disciple and brought him into the cultivation realm.
The next part details how Xian Yu Yang cultivated and explored secret realms for opportunities, reaching Golden Core Stage peak within less than a century and attracting celestial forces that allowed him to ascend to the Middle World. The story concludes here.
In this narrative, there is no female lead; Hanno herself did not know who she would become upon transmigrating and thus did not bother creating one for her protagonist. This story focuses on cultivation adventures primarily aimed at enhancing strength.
Currently, Hanno carried her Porcelain Jar with her everywhere; it rested beside her bed while she typed away when suddenly it began to glow...
...
Elder Brother Li realized he had become an infant again but did not know who he had transformed into. A month later, as his eyes and ears developed enough to see and hear people around him, Elder Brother Li finally understood his identity—he had transmigrated into Hanno's new protagonist, Xian Yu Yang! Oh my! What an upgrade! From side character to supporting role and now evolving into the main character—wasn't this an upgrade?
Elder Brother Li recalled Hanno mentioning that those thirteen years in Mortal Realm were supposed to be the easiest for the protagonist; he could enjoy himself thoroughly but wondered which character Hanno had become since there was no female lead in this story.
Who did Hanno transmigrate as? Without a female lead present, she naturally became a side character—the daughter of Azure Sky Sect's leader and Xian Yu Yang's senior sister. In the original work, this senior sister only appeared when Xian Yu Yang entered the sect and was never mentioned again afterward. The text described her as lacking talent and diligence in cultivation, often being forced by her frustrated father to train harder.
Now, Hanno was just like Elder Brother Li, a baby. The difference was that Elder Brother Li had memories, while Hanno, for some reason, had no recollection of being Hanno or of Elder Brother Li. It was as if he had crossed over into this life just like in his first life as Yue Junzhe. Now, Hanno only knew he was a traveler and had a cultivation method in his mind that shared the same name as "Eternal Life Secret," but nothing more.
Being a baby was quite boring; there was nothing to do. Aside from eating and sleeping, the two faux babies spent their time cultivating the Eternal Life Secret. The cultivation method of the Eternal Life Secret was different from the cultivation methods of Pure Yuan Great Land. Therefore, even after five years of restoring their strength to its original state, the other cultivators did not notice anything unusual and thought they were ordinary mortals who hadn't started cultivating.
At the age of five, Elder Brother Li finally obtained the discarded cultivation manual from Xian Yu Er Ge and began practicing the techniques of this world. Hanno was also enlightened by the leader of Azure Sky Sect, who taught him about cultivation. With the foundation laid by Eternal Life Secret, both of their cultivation speeds were remarkably fast. To avoid drawing attention, they chose to suppress their cultivation levels, allowing their powers to grow slowly—yet even so, they progressed faster than others—thus establishing a solid foundation.
In the blink of an eye, eight years passed. Elder Brother Li appeared to have reached the peak of Qi Refinement Stage—his actual level was mid-Foundation Establishment—but cultivating Eternal Life Secret would not trigger any manifestations. Elder Brother Li knew that in Pure Yuan Great Land, reaching Foundation Establishment would reveal signs; therefore, even though he had reached the peak of Qi Refinement Stage a year ago, he did not advance to Foundation Establishment to avoid disrupting the narrative.
Finally, it came to the part where Xian Yu Er Ge's enemies launched a midnight massacre on the Xianyu Family. However, as soon as they jumped over the wall into the Xianyu Family's courtyard, they were beaten down by Elder Brother Li. After subduing them, he ordered his servants to bind them and take them to the magistrate in the morning. Lady Xianyu and Brother Xianyu were shocked and surrounded Elder Brother Li, asking how he had acquired such martial skills and whether Xian Yu Er Ge had taught him. Just then, someone exclaimed, "How is this young master?" Everyone turned around in unison and froze in place. They saw a sword suspended in mid-air with a person standing on it.
"A celestial being!" Although people from Mortal Realm were unaware of the existence of cultivators, there were many legends about celestial beings. Upon seeing Cang Song Zhenren, members of Xianyu Family naturally regarded him as a celestial being and all knelt down like dumplings, leaving only Elder Brother Li standing and tilting his head to observe this cultivator who would become his master.
"Why do you look at me like that?" Cang Song Zhenren asked Elder Brother Li with interest. He hadn't expected to encounter such a young cultivator in Mortal Realm. This boy seemed only twelve or thirteen years old yet possessed peak Qi Refinement stage cultivation; his innate talent must be among the best of the best. Only daughters of sect leaders in the cultivation world could rival him. However, he wondered which sect this boy belonged to and why his master would leave him in Mortal Realm. After all, Mortal Realm had scarce spiritual energy and was not suitable for cultivation at all. The actions of this boy's master were purely hindering his progress and wasting his talent!
"How can you fly up there?" Elder Brother Li pretended not to understand.
"A cultivator at Foundation Establishment Period can fly using a sword," Cang Song Zhenren replied in surprise. "Did your master not tell you?"
Elder Brother Li shook his head: "I have no master."
"No master?" Cang Song Zhenren nearly shouted in shock. "Then how did you cultivate to peak Qi Refinement Stage?"
Elder Brother Li wore a bewildered expression—one that could win an award for Best Actor—and said: "What is Qi Refinement Stage? Is it just my current level of internal energy? I cultivated using a martial arts manual I bought with Second Brother; somehow I ended up at this level."
"Practicing according to the Martial Arts Manual? Or is it just a secret manual bought on the street? No master to teach you?" Cang Song thought that the outstanding disciples of his sect would surely feel ashamed enough to take their swords and end their lives upon hearing this. However, after a moment's reflection, Cang Song Zhenren felt a surge of joy. The fact that this young man could reach the peak of Qi Refinement Stage in such a short time within the Mortal Realm, solely by practicing from a manual, was a testament to his extraordinary talent. If only he could take him as a disciple...
Cang Song Zhenren straightened his face, adopting an air of celestial grace that was quite charming: "I am Cang Song Zhenren of the Azure Sky Sect at Kaiyang Peak. Child, do you wish to become my disciple?"
Elder Brother Li continued to play innocent: "Can your disciple fly like you?"
"Of course," Cang Song Zhenren nodded. He thought about taking Elder Brother Li back to the mountain and immediately helping him establish his foundation; that would surely satisfy Elder Brother Li's desire to fly.
"Then it's settled. I will take you as my master," Elder Brother Li said with a smile in his eyes. Cultivators were not so hard to fool after all!
