Chapter 215: Going Home

“Drip, drip…”

At a certain moment, a strange sound echoed in Jiang Xincheng’s Spirit Sense Sea. With this strange sound, a Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworm, deep green all over like a spring silkworm, appeared in his Spirit Sense Sea. It happily rolled over and began swimming around in Jiang Xincheng’s Spirit Sense Sea.

As this Divine Sense Spring Silkworm swam, its small mouth opened and closed slightly. A strange power from the world flowed toward its mouth with each opening and closing. After being digested and refined by the Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworm, it transformed into the purest Spiritual Sense Power, which poured into Jiang Xincheng’s Spirit Sense Sea, enhancing his Spiritual Sense Power.

The first Divine Sense Spring Silkworm was finally constructed by Jiang Xincheng. This meant that Jiang Xincheng’s Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant had reached the beginner level. As long as he continued to practice, one day it could reach a shocking level.

After spending several days, Jiang Xincheng finally cultivated his first Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworm. By then, he was completely exhausted. After having a good sleep and resting for a while, Jiang Xincheng went to a nearby luxurious hotel and had a big meal, treating his stomach that had not tasted delicious food for a long time.

After his energy and spirit returned to their peak, Jiang Xincheng immersed himself in cultivation again and began constructing the second Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworm.

With the experience from the first time, the second cultivation session went very smoothly. In just over three days, the second Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworm appeared in Jiang Xincheng’s Spirit Sense Sea, doubling the speed of his Spiritual Sense cultivation.

Two days later, the third Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworm appeared in Jiang Xincheng’s Spirit Sense Sea. This meant that Jiang Xincheng’s Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant had reached the peak of the minor achievement stage in the first layer, only one step away from major achievement.

However, because his Spiritual Sense had already reached the late General Realm and his Soul Flame had turned milky white, making it very strong, the bottleneck at the minor achievement stage of the first layer of Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant, which might be extremely difficult for others, was quite simple for Jiang Xincheng.

The cultivation of Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant relied on strong Spiritual Sense and soul. Only with sufficiently strong Spiritual Sense and soul could one construct more Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworms, making Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant more and more powerful.

With Jiang Xincheng’s current powerful Spiritual Sense at the late General Realm, he would not encounter any cultivation bottlenecks at least in the first four layers of Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant. As long as there was enough time, Jiang Xincheng could breakthrough smoothly and cultivate Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant to the peak of the fourth layer, resulting in thirty-six Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworms in his Spirit Sense Sea. His cultivation speed would be thirty-six times that of ordinary Practitioners, of course, those without Spiritual Sense techniques.

As for the bottleneck at the peak of the minor achievement stage of the first layer, Jiang Xincheng only needed four days to break through. His Spirit Sense Sea now had four Spiritual Sense Spring Silkworms, and the speed of his Spiritual Sense improvement increased significantly, though it still couldn’t compare to the peak major achievement of the Thousand Refinements Spirit Tempering Method. He needed to continue refining Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant.

But when he checked the time, he realized that winter break started tomorrow, and the New Year was only a few days away. It was time to go home.

Looking back on the first semester of his sophomore year, Jiang Xincheng had attended very few classes—so few he could count them on his fingers. Most of his time was spent on cultivation and improvement, and he had basically not studied any sophomore courses. Thinking about it, Jiang Xincheng felt a bit embarrassed.

But embarrassed or not, he still had to skip those classes. His cultivation time was already too short, so how could he spare time for those boring courses? He had learned enough in his previous life, and in this life, he had no intention of studying those dull sophomore courses again.

Moreover, with his status as the Chief Student of his freshman, sophomore, and junior years, skipping those classes wouldn’t be a problem. The teachers wouldn’t make things difficult for such an outstanding student. Besides, most teachers had heard that Jiang Xincheng had joined the Flourishing Tang Empire and become a famous member of the empire, with status and position no lower than theirs, if not higher. How could they dare to fail him?

Wait, now that he was a sophomore, Jiang Xincheng was no longer the freshman Chief Student but the Chief Student for the sophomore and junior years. As for the senior-year Chief Student, it was a student at the Cloud Condensation Realm, who was also the only Cloud Condensation Realm student at Tianhai University on the surface.

During this time, Professor Lou Guangzhi seemed to be immersed in cultivation as well. Apart from occasionally spending time with his girlfriend and child, he also devoted a lot of time to Zhao Munv. It was said that the two often did things not suitable for children in Zhao Munv’s private villa, though it was unclear whether this was true or not.

However, Jiang Xincheng felt quite proud of having prevented the tragedy between the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West from his previous life. He never thought in his previous life that one day he would be reborn into his youth and help the Jade Emperor, Lou Guangzhi, and the Queen Mother of the West, Zhao Munv, resolve their misunderstandings.

Oh, and there was also recruiting the Chi You Demon God, Lu Guangwei, and the Reincarnation of Zhuge Liang, Ma Qingshan. Thinking about such things made him feel excited.

Jiang Xincheng’s relationship with Lin Anan was also progressing smoothly. During his breaks from cultivation, he would accompany Lin Anan to go shopping, enjoy good food, or hide in some secluded place to do some romantic and exciting things.

This life was very happy, but time passed too quickly. In the blink of an eye, the first semester of his sophomore year was over, which made Jiang Xincheng feel quite regretful.

But when it came to going home, Jiang Xincheng felt an inexplicable fear. In this life, he had seen his family just a few months ago, but for the current Jiang Xincheng, it had been fifty or sixty years since he last saw his parents.

Even his sister, Jiang Xinyu, he rarely saw in his previous life because each meeting brought him pain. Back then, his sister Jiang Xinyu was known throughout the Shenxia Alliance for her ruthless heart and vicious methods. She was one of the most famous businesswomen globally and also one of the most infamous female executioners, even called the “Evil Old Witch” by people.

So, in his previous life, Jiang Xincheng was afraid to see his sister because she was so different from the simple and kind sister in his memories—so different it made him feel despair.

Therefore, when it came to going home and seeing his parents and sister, Jiang Xincheng felt both fear and anticipation. This complicated feeling was something he couldn’t easily share with others.

The night before going home, Jiang Xincheng unexpectedly couldn’t sleep. He didn’t cultivate but simply stayed quietly in his room, thinking in the dark about everything that happened in his previous life, about his parents whom he hadn’t seen for sixty years, and about his sister, whom he found painful and sad to see every time.

Early the next morning, Jiang Xincheng started packing his things, putting them away one by one. Then he went all over Tianhai City and bought a cartload of things that his parents and sister had wanted but couldn’t afford in his previous life. He arranged for a transport company to specially deliver his belongings to his hometown town.

After finishing all this, Jiang Xincheng boarded a flight to Ming Yu City.
