My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

“Yeah, it’s been quite a few years.”

It could be seen from her expression that Elder Mu was slightly hesitant, but she still agreed for some reason.

Elder Mu turned to look at Jiang Li and the other two.

“Qiuhua, stay with Alliance Leader Jiang. I will go meet my old friends.”

Mu Chunhao originally wanted to bring Shenshan Qiuhua in, but hearing what Elder Mu said, he did not insist.

Previously, on the way here, she had instructed Shenshan Qiuhua to interact less with the Mu family. He did not know how much she had considered it.

Mu Chunhao looked at Jiang Li, who was so familiar with the two of them, and felt a little curious.

It was said that an alliance was established in the Great Mountain Region. No one would have thought that the person who became the Alliance Leader was actually such a young man.

“Alliance Leader Jiang of the Great Mountain Alliance is indeed young and promising. The banquet has yet to begin. Brother Jiang can enter the inner circle with Cousin Qiuhua.”

“The young people of the various sects in the Eastern Region are all there. If you get to know them, you can have more friends in the future. You can also participate in the small games inside. The rewards are not bad.”

After he smiled and finished speaking, he walked into the depths of the peach forest with Elder Mu.

Only two peach blossom pins were left.

According to Mu Chunhao, by putting this peach blossom on his collar and sleeve, he could enter the higher circle of the social gathering.

Those who could gather there were basically all cultivators from the Divine Judgment Hall’s member factions. Their statuses were completely different from the people outside.

At the very least, the people inside would not be so flattering to a young master of the Mu family.

As the Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Alliance, it was his duty to build a good relationship with the other sects.

After bidding farewell to the Medicine King Pavilion’s Shopkeeper Jiang, he placed the two peach blossoms on his collar and sleeve. A moment later, the scene in front of their eyes slowly changed.

In the chaotic and dense peach blossom forest ahead, a small path that led to an unknown place appeared.

This Peach Blossom Forest was originally enveloped by brilliant array formations and illusions. Only with these tokens could one see more things.

Jiang Li’s gaze focused slightly. Although he had not deliberately observed it previously, he did not discover this array formation. It could be seen that the person who set up the array was very skilled.

The Mu family had been running this place for thousands of years. Their heritage was so deep that ordinary sects could not compare to them. No one in the Great Mountain Region could achieve this level of array formation.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

To a genius array master, the joy of challenging the array was infinite.

Stepping onto the winding path, everything inside was pink.

It had to be said that the scenery in this array formation was quite good. It was probably not a problem to evaluate it as a superb scenic area.

When she was alone with Jiang Li in this charming and gentle environment, Shenshan Qiuhua’s face flushed red once more. It was unknown if it was because of the peach blossoms or because she had recalled something shameful.

However, Alliance Leader Jiang did not pay attention to what the young lady was thinking.

As a new formation master, Jiang Li placed all his attention on the surrounding grass and trees.

1

On the surface, nothing could be seen. Every tree looked the same. If one stared at them for too long, not to mention seeing the pattern, it was not strange for them to show signs of dizziness and vomiting.

In fact, Jiang Li could even sense that this array formation was alive.

The nodes of the array formation beneath the ground seemed to be moving at any moment. Even if the array master found the rules of the array formation, it would not be long before the entire array formation changed completely, causing everything to fail.

Many array masters had challenged this place before. There were very few people who could crack it.

This was an array formation built with spiritual plant creatures as the foundation. It was indeed profound.

However, there was also a layer of illusion on the surface of this array formation. This was not something he was good at.

Jiang Li quietly reached into the coffin. The female ghost, Qin Shuman, followed his hand and entered his body.

With Qin Shuman’s help, the blurry peach blossom illusion immediately dissipated, and everything in front of him became even more vivid.

Moreover, Jiang Li’s method of breaking the array was different from others. He did not need to find the knots and rules of the array formation. He only needed to keep an eye on the earth vein that the array formation relied on.

Jiang Li could even rely on his talent to directly change the earth vein. At that time, no matter how exquisite the array formation was, it would be useless.

At this moment, on a high pavilion not far away, a group of young men were bragging together and pointing at the world.

Some said that they had just obtained a powerful divine weapon. Some said that they had heroically slaughtered a few powerful demons. Some said that the daughter of a small family had thrown herself at him.

They were a group of second-generation sect heirs who were familiar with the Mu family. Just playing together was a way for many sects to maintain their relationship.

Ignoring everything else, the cultivation and aura on each of their bodies were not weak. The weakest was at least at the Core Formation realm.

Under the circumstances of being of the same age, there were indeed not many young people in the Great Mountain Region who could compare to them.

Even Chu Yunxuan’s cultivation could only be considered ordinary among them.

A group of people was currently surrounding a chessboard, watching the match between two of them.

If the chess pieces on the chessboard on the table moved, the enlarged chessboard under the pavilion would also change.

However, in the enlarged version of the chessboard, the chess pieces were not chess pieces, but had been changed to their respective demon beast spiritual pets.

When the chess pieces collided, the demon beasts in the same compartment would fight each other. The winner would stay.

In such a game, the key was no longer skill or wisdom, but the quality of the “chess piece”.

1

If one had a high-quality chess piece, one could even take down all 16 pieces on the other side.

This kind of competition was more in line with the interests of these second-generation heirs.

At this moment, on the field were 16 huge silver-white bears that were as big as elephants.

On the other side, there were only two golden leopards left holding on bitterly. After two more rounds, they could only helplessly lose.

The Beast Frenzy Sect’s beast taming standards were indeed outstanding. They also had the advantage in this kind of chess game.

After the match ended, everyone congratulated the burly cultivator.

They were just about to start another round when a disk array not far from them suddenly reacted.

Everyone became interested.

“Oh? Someone’s here again.”

“Young Master Chunkong, who is it this time?”

Accompanying them in the tall pavilion was Mu Chunkong who Jiang Li had seen before.

This person had obtained the news and made a trip to the Mother River of the Great Mountain Region.

Although he had observed a bit of the aura of the Nine Nether Wood, it was indeed as Jiang Li had said. It was a little long, and he found nothing after searching around.

It was also time for the nine-year Longevity Peach Banquet to begin, so he rushed back first.

However, there was still no news of his younger brother, Mu Chunyang, so the family became a little suspicious. They suspected that something might really have happened to them.

“Let me see.”

Mu Chunkong’s finger brushed past a token on his waist before pointing at the array disc. An image of the peach blossom maze appeared on the array disc.

Dressed in the embroidered robe of the Great Mountain Region, a man and woman in the uniform of the Shu Mountain disciples were shuttling through the peach blossom forest.

Mu Chunkong, who had just met Jiang Li not long ago, naturally recognized him with a single glance.

“It’s them.”

“Who are they? I don’t think I’ve seen them among the younger generation?”

“However, that female cultivator is quite beautiful. Young Master Chunkong, why don’t you introduce her to us?”

The others were a little puzzled. The Eastern Region was neither big nor small. They had more or less met once in their circle.

Occasionally, there would be new people who would be recommended. They had never heard of these two people.

“They’re not famous people. They come from a small faction in a remote area. It’s natural that you don’t recognize them.”

“That female cultivator is related to our family. She’s my cousin.”

The others understood clearly, and they had some thoughts towards the sweet looking Shenshan Qiuhua. As for Jiang Li, they more or less looked down on him.

“I see. I heard the cultivators in small places are not very capable. How long do you think they will take to walk here?”

“I think it’ll take at least ten hours. Judging from that person’s appearance, he probably hasn’t seen such a maze before.”

“Heh, even if they have the Peach Blossom pin, seeing through the Nine Palace Transformation of the Peach Blossom Formation is also their limit. If they can’t even get past this, they should stay there.”

“Haha, Young Master Cheng is right. Not everyone can befriend us.”

Some of these people thought of themselves as extraordinary, and only a few stood at the side and did not speak. Some people looked at Jiang Li’s face with a spurious smile, and it was unknown what they were thinking in their minds.

“Eh… wait, wait, is he looking at us?”

While everyone was chatting and laughing, one of the female cultivators noticed that Jiang Li suddenly raised his head in the scene, and the direction his gaze shot towards seemed to be towards them.

Jiang Li made two hand seals, and a peach blossom tree not far away trembled twice before the scene on the disk array suddenly vanished.

The entire array disk began to beat uncontrollably.

Mu Chunkong was shocked. He had never seen such a situation.

After a few breaths, the peach blossom array trembled in front of the second generation cultivators.

The lush peach blossoms separated to the sides, turning from the curved Nine Palace windy path to a straight path.

At a glance, at the end of the peach blossom path were Jiang Li and Shenshan Qiuhua who they had just seen through the formation.

The group of young people looked at each other. What was going on?

That person actually found the flaw in the Peach Forest’s array formation and easily broke it. He even took over the control.

The level of the Mu family’s Peach Blossom Array was not ordinary. Although there were guests visiting now and the strength of the outer array formation was specially reduced, it was a little exaggerated to do this.

With such incredible array formation attainment, could it be that this other party was really from a small faction in a remote area?

Mu Chunkong grabbed the token in his hand and poked and tapped at the disk array. However, the Peach Blossom Forest Array in front of him seemed to be stuck and did not react at all.

His actions looked a little stupid now.

Following this path that appeared, Jiang Li and Shenshan Qiuhua easily walked into the pavilion. After that, they waved their hands and the peach blossom formation and disk array returned to their original state.

“Alliance Leader Jiang Li… What great methods.”

Even with the core disk array in his hand, he had actually failed to stop Jiang Li. This made Mu Chunkong feel very embarrassed.

The expressions of the other second-generation disciples were not much better. They had just passed through the Nine Palaces Formation and had spent a lot of effort. Obviously, there was an insurmountable gap between them and Jiang Li in the Dao of Formations.

“Isn’t this Young Master Chunkong? Thank you for your help earlier but I haven’t thanked you. It’s our fault for being rude. Please visit the Great Mountain Alliance next time.”

“Everyone, I’m Jiang Li from the Great Mountain Alliance.”

Jiang Li first greeted Mu Chunkong politely, then cupped his hands towards everyone as a form of greeting.

Most of the people present only nodded as they pondered about the stranger, Jiang Li.

However, one of them, a man who was obviously taller than ordinary people and had a silver bear skin on his tall and burly body, gave him an unfriendly gaze.

“You’re from the Great Mountain Alliance? Hmph, consider yourself unlucky to have encountered me here.”

“Do you have the guts to fight me? We can determine the winner and the loser, but we can also have a fight to the death!”

That person walked out of the crowd and smiled cruelly, revealing a mouth full of bloodthirsty fangs.

“Duel? Who are you?”

Jiang Li was stunned. This person did not seem to know him previously.

Why did they suddenly want to fight him when they heard that he was a cultivator of the Great Mountain Alliance?

“Hmph! I’m Barossa from the Beast Frenzy Sect.”

“You don’t know me, but the matters of the Iron Wolf Sect are the matters of my Beast Frenzy Sect. The Great Mountain Alliance snatched our food. Do you think there’s no need to pay the price?”

Jiang Li slapped his forehead and recalled that he had once secretly tricked the Iron Wolf Sect in the matter of Ink Sect.

Later on, when the Divine Judgment Hall transferred the merit points, due to the immoral actions of a certain vicious staff who secretly informed the Iron Wolf Sect, even their 630,000 merit points were almost snatched away.

Although their identity was not exposed at the beginning, after the merit points were transferred, it could not be hidden from anyone no matter what.

In fact, if not for the fact that the Iron Wolf Sect had lost too many people in the previous Thousand Sieve Earth Treasury, they would have long come to find trouble with the Great Mountain Alliance.

As for the Beast Frenzy Sect and the Iron Wolf Sect, they could be said to be related by blood and had an extremely good relationship.

This Barossa should be a disciple of the Silver Bear lineage in the Beast Faction.

Since they had met today, it was obvious that they could not reconcile.

“Barossa! This is our Mu family’s Peach Forest. No one can kill anyone here.”

When he saw that the robust man intended to kill, Mu Chunkong hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. It was not that he wanted to protect Jiang Li, but the dignity of the Mu family could not be challenged by outsiders.

Barossa glanced at Mu Chunkong. He was not crazy enough to provoke the Mu family for such a thing.

However, he clearly did not plan to let it go.

“Tsk, if it conforms to the rules, he can only blame himself for being incompetent if he dies.”

“That kid surnamed Jiang, do you dare to have a life and death game with me!”

The burly Barossa stared at Jiang Li, and his finger that was as thick as a radish pointed at the large chessboard outside the tall pavilion. On it, 16 silver bears that were dyed in blood were roaring excitedly. Obviously, the battle just now was not enough to satisfy them.

The so-called life and death chess was when the player himself entered the board as a chess piece.

All the rules did not change. Life and death were determined by fate, and wealth was determined by heaven.

This beast battle chess game was arranged by the Mu family to begin with. If that was the case, then Mu Chunkong would no longer object and only speak to Jiang Li.

“You can choose to refuse. He can’t attack you in the Mu family.”

These words were meant for Jiang Li and Barossa.

They could not kill in the Mu family, but they could do so outside.

Jiang Li felt a little helpless as he looked at the burly man with brilliant killing intent.

For Ink Sect’s merit points, such conflicts were unavoidable.

If he killed this guy, he would probably get himself into more trouble.

How troublesome!

However, there was no other choice. Stealing benefits was something that sects had to experience when developing. Some wars had to be fought.

One huge fight could deter a hundred enemies.
