Chapter 51 Maoshan Great Cave True Scripture
“You don’t need to cause me trouble; I can handle it myself.”
“I need to make a trip to Yaowang Valley to find your little martial uncle Hua Jin. I’ll return before the Hundred Flowers Gathering.”
“The martial world has been unstable lately, so don’t go wandering around. Stay in Snow Moon City and wait for me to come back.”
Jiang Che gave another round of instructions, worried as ever. Only by staying in Snow Moon City would Sikong Qianluo be the safest.
Although the young girl now possessed the strength of a Grandmaster, she still couldn’t stand against the seasoned experts. However, among the younger generation, hardly anyone could rival her anymore.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be good and obedient.”
“During this time, I won’t go anywhere. I’ll stay in Snow Moon City and focus on cultivating the immortal techniques you’ve taught me, Brother Che, and also guide Sister Ruoyi in her training.”
Sikong Qianluo nodded obediently.
At first, when she heard that Senior Brother Tang Lian had left, escorting a golden coffin, her heart did stir with a desire to roam the martial world. However, after receiving the legacy Jiang Che had given her, she now only wanted to fully comprehend the techniques as soon as possible.
“You’re so well-behaved. I’ll take my leave now.”
Jiang Che patted the young girl’s head in satisfaction and left without looking back.
In Snow Moon City, there were not only the three city lords but also his four subordinates. Even if the old fox Qi Tianchen came, he wouldn’t gain any advantage here.
Watching Jiang Che’s departing figure, Sikong Qianluo’s lively eyes darted around before heading straight to Ye Ruoyi’s courtyard.
…
After leaving his residence, Jiang Che communicated with the system in his mind.
“System, I want to catch up on my sign-ins.”
The past few days had been busy, and he had missed several sign-ins.
“Ding! Successfully made up for the 27th: Congratulations to the host for obtaining 108 boxes of toilet paper.”
“Ding! Successfully made up for the 28th: Congratulations to the host for obtaining 108 watermelons.”
“Ding! Successfully made up for the 29th: Congratulations to the host for obtaining 99 boxes of Weilong spicy strips.”
“Ding! Successfully signed in for the 30th: Congratulations to the host for obtaining a divine weapon, the Xuanling Spear.”
“Ding! End of the month: The system has issued a random gift pack. The host may open it at any time.”
“A divine weapon?”
Looking at the Xuanling Spear he had just acquired, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction.
Although he didn’t use spears himself, he could gift it to Sikong Qianluo. After all, she still didn’t have a suitable weapon. Her Silver Moon Spear was merely a spiritual weapon.
In this world, weapons were roughly divided into three levels: mortal, spiritual, and divine.
The famous swords of the Beili realm all belonged to the divine weapon level. For example, Li Hanyi’s Iron Horse Ice River ranked third on the Beili Weapon Ranking.
Above divine weapons were celestial swords, but Jiang Che had never seen one before. Divine weapons were already extremely rare, with only ten in all of Beili.
His Seven-Star Abyss Dragon Sword wasn’t a heavenly sword but was good enough for now.
Moreover, with the system, Jiang Che was confident he’d eventually acquire a heavenly sword, so there was no rush.
“System, open the random gift pack…”
After fiddling with the Xuanling Spear for a while, Jiang Che casually tossed it into the system’s storage.
“Ding! Opening the random gift pack…”
“Congratulations to the host for obtaining 3000 points.”
“Congratulations to the host for obtaining a god-tier skill infusion…”
“Infuse me with brewing skills.”
After some thought, Jiang Che decided on brewing skills. He already knew a bit of everything else—music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, flower arranging, and tea brewing—and none of those were particularly useful, except for charming people.
“Ding! Beginning infusion of god-tier brewing skills…”
…
Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction, having absorbed all the knowledge infused into his mind by the system.
“System, display my attribute panel.”

After reviewing his attribute panel, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction and headed to a nearby merchant association to purchase a map of the Beili realm.
After locating Yaowang Valley* on the map, Jiang Che immediately used his Drunken Immortal Moon-Watching Steps.
[*Medicine King Valley]
With a few leaps, he reached an altitude of several thousand meters. From this height, the mountain scenery below was fully visible, and Snow Moon City quickly disappeared from view.
The Yaowang Valley was about a thousand miles away from Snow Moon City, not too far.
At full speed, Jiang Che could reach it within an hour.
Stretching lazily and basking in the morning sunlight, Jiang Che reclined on the clouds, heading directly toward Yaowang Valley.
“Ding! The system has detected that the host has left Snow Moon City. A new sign-in task is being issued.”
“Please proceed to Beauty Manor to sign in. Reward: Maoshan Great Cave True Scripture.”
“Maoshan Great Cave True Scripture?”
“Interesting…”
Seeing the system notification, Jiang Che was momentarily stunned, then smiled.
He had wondered why the system hadn’t updated the sign-in tasks for so long. Apparently, it was because he had never left Snow Moon City.
Jiang Che was familiar with the Maoshan Great Cave True Scripture, a supreme technique for disciples of the Maoshan Sect in worlds of demons and spirits.
The Dao has three thousand paths, all leading to the same destination.
Whether it was the Five Elements Spiritual Arts, the Shushan Qi Cultivation Technique, or the Maoshan Great Cave True Scripture, cultivating them to the highest level could all lead to ascension and becoming an immortal. The difference lay only in the specific techniques and methods.
The Maoshan Great Cave True Scripture primarily recorded methods to deal with demons and spirits.
Although the Jiuzhou Continent had martial artists and even a Maoshan Sect, it had long since declined, and he had never heard of demons or spirits here.
Setting those thoughts aside, Jiang Che reclined again on the clouds, heading full speed toward Yaowang Valley.
