Chapter 257: #257 - Changes in oneself

The next day, Jiang Wen left with Mo Xiang.

Master Wang saw them off, and gave him a reward of eight figures when they left.

Like the Chen family, the money went through the company accounts. Such cross-border transfers of large sums would be audited, and Jiang Wen had already registered a company that he could use.

As for the follow-up matters in the Wang family, Jiang Wen had only heard some rumors.

It was said that the second young master of the Wang family ran away to the West with the child, and would never return to Nan Yue again. The Wang family gave him a lot of things, including the Wang family company's stock.

After all, he was able to talk to the Chen family, so his net worth was naturally not low. Enough for the second young master to live a carefree life in another country, without worrying about expenses.

As for the child born from the womb of a dead fetus, the doctor said that he was exceptionally healthy.

Jiang Wen also specially wrapped a talisman for her, with his blessing on it.

After doing these things and then setting off, Mo Xiang became much more silent. Originally, she talked a lot when she came out with him, but now she often spaced out.

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Wen asked with a smile. "Is it a feeling about life, or an understanding of cultivation?"

"I'm just a little emotional about the fickleness of human nature," Mo Xiang said in a muffled voice. "Brother Jiang, why do you say people can be so fickle?"

"Looking at the Chen family's affairs, it's just that the Chen family's own people colluded with outsiders, trying to seize the Chen family's position. And the head of the Chen family, for the sake of his wife and children, swallowed his anger, and even let that person go. Looking at this Wang family again, it is also the same. This second young master of the Wang family would rather give up his family business for the sake of his wife and children, but those people despise him in every possible way."

Mo Xiang's little face showed confusion as she spoke. After all, she had experienced enough things during this period, which had greatly changed her understanding. Although it is now called a modern society, in fact, many things are no different from ancient times.

"This is just human nature. Many times, what we do is not consistent with what we experience. You may have seen a life of plenty in China, and seen that everyone is literate. Thinking that everyone is a scholar, then the world will become better. It's just that everything is not what you think, and there are many worse things. Reading and literacy only allow you to understand the world, and being a person is to understand yourself."

As Jiang Wen spoke, he couldn't help but think of his experience in Tai Cang. Although those tribal people didn't know a single character, and couldn't even speak, they knew how to repay kindness and knew how to unite to survive.

These experiences all exist in his memory. He has seen giants who generously went to righteousness, and he has also seen tribal warriors who苟且 seek to live. The two only made him more and more witness the nature and understand what the so-called cultivation is for.

"Is that so?" Mo Xiang nodded thoughtfully. "I understand a little bit of what those books say."

"When the thought of 'so that's how it is' arises in your heart, you will understand what the sages said," Jiang Wen said with a smile, rubbing Mo Xiang's head. Enlightenment is mysterious and true.

It's just that at a certain moment, you understand the doubts in your heart, and then laugh and sigh, 'So that's how it is.'

On the way, they didn't encounter any strange things. They only heard that the city they came to before was now having supernatural events every day. It made the residents panic, and no one dared to settle there anymore.

After hearing this, Mo Xiang slapped her forehead and said that she had forgotten to take back the talismans she had set up. But that's not a big deal, after all, it's just a Yin Gathering Array.

As long as you haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of ghosts knocking on the door?

Looking up at the starry sky, you can see a colorful band of light floating along the atmosphere. That is the spiritual vein, the source of spiritual energy that runs through hundreds of millions of worlds.

The spiritual vein is ethereal and untouchable, just like the spiritual energy is not touched by people. It can go up to the Ninth Heaven and down to the Yellow Springs.

The spiritual veins walking in the earth veins are called earth spiritual veins, and the heavenly ones naturally do not need to say much, they are called heavenly spiritual veins.

Therefore, the cultivator's spiritual roots in Daqian will also be called human spiritual veins.

Jiang Wen was fortunate enough to obtain a ground spiritual vein, and once thought that the heavenly spiritual vein was similar to it, but later found that the difference was too great. The two may not be the same thing, just a name.

And this present world's heavenly spiritual vein can actually allow him to travel through the long river of time and go to that ancient age. This kind of great power is too strange, so Jiang Wen tried it several times later.

It's just a pity that every time he returned without success, he didn't experience such a strange thing again.

Not understanding these things, Jiang Wen simply stopped thinking about them. He closed his eyes and entered his consciousness, and when he looked at the stone tablet again, he found a change.

【Incense: One hundred and thirty-two thousand nine】

【Merit: One hundred and seventy-five thousand】

【True God: Tai Xu Miao Jing Wu Shi Tian Zun】

【Taoism: Weak】

He had used a lot of merit points originally, but he never thought that many would come back now. There was also more incense, obviously many pilgrims came during the days he was out.

It seems that Yan Gongli and those white foxes are running the Taoist temple well.

What makes him most puzzled is the place of Taoism, where there was originally none, a weak word appeared.

"What's going on? Why is there a weak word in Taoism?" Jiang Wen couldn't figure it out.

He didn't even figure out what Taoism is. He originally thought it was similar to establishing a sect and confirming his own statement, but after using these at the Taoism conference, he found that it was not the case.

In the end, he tried a few times and gave up. He didn't expect that today there would be a change inexplicably. This made Jiang Wen couldn't help but think about whether it was because of the things he had done in Tai Cang.

After all, those things have greatly changed Tai Cang.

As for why Yan Gongli would draw talisman techniques, Jiang Wen suspected that those should also have been taught by himself. Of course, all of this is based on the fact that those things he experienced were real.

"When I go back, I'll find a chance to ask her properly," Jiang Wen thought to himself, and after withdrawing from the stone tablet, he looked at the statue.

It has more divinity than before, and its appearance is more and more similar to him.

After reading all this, Jiang Wen returned to reality. His cultivation has been improving these days, and even if he doesn't run his exercises, he will break through on his own. Now he is only one step away from his realm in Tai Cang, and perhaps it won't be long before he can reach the perfection of refining Qi and transforming God.

At that time, even if he enters Daqian again, he will not be afraid of the real Dao Palace.
