755: Chapter 497 755: Chapter 497 Jiang Tang used a secret transmission method to tell Yan Weiwei about the necklace’s functions, instructing her not to tell anyone else, as it was her protective magical treasure.
After listening to Jiang Tang’s introduction of the necklace, Yan Weiwei felt the item was even more invaluable.
It served as an amulet, a storage space, and a decorative piece all in one.
She felt that besides her parents and family, as well as Ye Tian, Jiang Tang was the kindest person to her.
Meeting Jiang Tang in this lifetime was truly her fortune, and with Jiang Tang’s support, she believed that tomorrow’s engagement party would not be looked down upon.
Instead, she would be a woman envied by all.
Yan Weiwei now had confidence in her engagement party tomorrow, and she was even more joyful.
At this moment, nine beauties came to present Yan Weiwei with additional makeup gifts, each carrying a piece of jewelry.
With the exquisite jewelry from Jiang Tang earlier, although the nine beauties’ offerings couldn’t compare, they were also beautiful magical treasures crafted from the finest materials, items one might not find outside.
Only someone like Jiang Tang, who possessed a space, could have sun stones, moonstones, and even crystal stones from the Dragon Palace, to create such fine artifact-crafted jewelry.
After presenting the jewelry, Jiang Tang let everyone disperse.
He didn’t need to sleep, using cultivation in place of rest.
Others did the same, but some, slightly lesser in strength, needed rest, such as Yan Weiwei’s family, who were to host the engagement party the next day.
Lai Jianlin and Luo Yaxuan had completed their tasks and returned to their respective quarters.
Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin lived in different rooms in the same courtyard, not far from where Jiang Tang stayed.
In addition to the two of them, the courtyard housed several subordinates Jiang Tang had brought along.
As for the construction workers and helpers newly hired at the site,
Temporary tents and kitchens were built at the site to provide them with food and drink.
While they were busy with tasks assigned by Jiang Tang, others would guard the site.
Because there had been sabotage before, Ye Tian had sent military guards to oversee the site and stand watch at the gates.
Having seen the beautiful jewelry earlier, as well as the pieces made by the nine girls, Luo Yaxuan was inspired with new ideas.
He only cultivated for an hour that night, dedicating the rest of the time to crafting artifact jewelry.
With his improved abilities and newly learned skills, his days and nights were incredibly fulfilling.
He didn’t feel tired; a man’s ambition left him brimming with inexhaustible energy.
Jiang Tang, the Saint Master, was his goal, a man who seemed to have endless magical treasures and beloved pets at his disposal.
As a son from one of the first-rate families, Luo Yaxuan actually had a strong sense of vanity.
Before, it stemmed from the pride of a noble son, but faced with Jiang Tang, who was a hundred times stronger, all his pride vanished.
At the moment, he was only a little short of reaching Nascent Soul, a level that marked the highest echelons of capability within his family.
Of those who had left the Nangong Immortal Sect with him, he was the most capable.
But that was only among those individuals.
Since coming out into the wider world and encountering Jiang Tang, and then Su Chang’an and Ye Tian, he couldn’t compare to those elites.
Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin came from noble clans within the same Cultivation City.
Though these families were divided into first-rate and second-rate,
They had been friends since childhood and later followed different Immortal Sects to cultivate.
Now, as they emerged with equally high capabilities,
They continued to improve their cultivation while following Jiang Tang, maintaining comparable strength.
They were brothers in adversity, progressing together, undertaking tasks together, sharing meals from the same pot despite sleeping in different rooms.
One advantage was that the brothers had each other for company, so they wouldn’t feel lonely when away from home.
While missing their families and girlfriends, they could still dine and drink together in moments of relaxation, a joy unique to their lifestyle.
When Lai Jianlin returned to his room, he did much the same as Luo Yaxuan, following a similar approach spontaneously inspired, with only minor differences in their thoughts.
When they later produced gifts for their girlfriends, who would wear the jewelry, it would seem as though the designs were almost identical, despite the different creators.
If not for the fact that they were to be given to their respective loved ones, one might think they were crafted by the same hand.
After returning to his room, Jiang Tang didn’t idle either; he had been frequently using Buddhist Law.
Consequently, he sought to study and understand it on a deeper level.
He had also taken a liking to Talisman Making, a skill he had just begun to learn.
In the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space, Jiang Tang had acquired a Spiritual Treasure, as well as a Secret Manual for Talisman Making.
He wanted to study whether he could create an Immortal Talisman Treasure that could automatically mend heaven.
There wouldn’t be a need for human strength, as these Magical Treasures could accomplish it instead.
At this point, this was just an idea to Jiang Tang; he needed to get that map before he could research what kind of Heaven-Mending Spell would be best.
He had a few Immortal Treasures at present, all handcrafted by others; he hadn’t made a single one himself.
People need to progress, one cannot always be content with past accomplishments.
Just like now, he was always trying to break through and refine an Immortal Pill while creating the Supreme Elixirs.
He had been able to make Supreme Elixirs because of the Secret Manual that appeared in the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space.
Of course, Jiang Tang hoped that the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space would reveal another Immortal’s Secret Manual.
This time, even with many ideas in mind, all he could do was study and consolidate his skills.
Jiang Tang lacked the confidence that he would possess creative capabilities.
Enjoying the Secret Manuals produced by the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space had always been the root of his progress.
Jiang Tang also knew that this dependence wasn’t good and had already begun shifting his focus inward to the space within his own body.
If the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space disappeared one day, he would not lose too many precious things.
The nine beauties watched as Jiang Tang returned to his room, none of them staying with him.
The beauties were somewhat silent; with so many women around, why didn’t the man take the initiative?
Could it be that he expected them to make the first move?
The others just glanced silently at the door as Jiang Tang entered, then helplessly retreated into their own rooms.
Only Lin Dandan’s eyes flashed differently at this moment as she watched Jiang Tang enter his room, seeing the man settle down on the cushion, seemingly cultivating his method.
As she watched, she saw the smooth skin on the back of the man in front of her.
Lin Dandan found that her gaze could penetrate through his clothing and see the body within.
Lin Dandan felt she was harboring wicked thoughts again and was grateful it was just the man’s back—she dreads thinking what it would have been like if it was a man’s…
Blushing at the thought, she quickly returned to her room.
Jiang Tang seemed to sense something but did not turn around; he used his Powerful Divine Consciousness to detect who was viewing him with such an odd gaze.
As if seeing through his body.
Finding out that it was Lin Dandan, he smiled to himself.
Could it be that the Cultivation Technique he gave her allowed her to develop such a penetrating vision?
“X-ray vision?”
Feeling amused by the thought, Jiang Tang became interested in that Cultivation Technique and wanted to observe it for himself.
Jiang Tang didn’t intend to learn the technique just to watch people or spy on anyone.
Every Cultivation Technique had its usefulness, right?
Before, he believed his Powerful Divine Consciousness was sufficient and did not require such a technique — just using the permeating ability of his Divine Consciousness was enough.
But now he felt that learning such a skill might have other uses.
After returning to her room, Lin Dandan couldn’t help but use her vision to examine the other women in their rooms.
All she saw were the women in other rooms, stripping off their garments one by one under her gaze, as if putting on a show for her—a woman admiring other women.
She couldn’t help but feel a heat rising from within.
Lin Dandan thought she must be going mad; after all, they were all women, just with different heights and figures.
They had different faces.
They were all beautiful in their own right, and her figure was by no means inferior to theirs.
Why did she feel such appreciation?
Lin Dandan felt her nose bleed coming on so she diverted her gaze, which accidentally returned to Jiang Tang.
By this time, Jiang Tang had turned his body around; it was as if in different rooms, they could feel each other’s gaze meeting.
Then…
that feeling made both of them sink into it, unable to extricate themselves, drawn to each other.
