By doing so, the Shen family would become an affiliated family to the Jiang family.

This was something the couple did not expect.

Back then, the reason why they suggested that the Shen family move to Liang Nation was because they hoped that the two families could take care of each other.

After all, as Golden Core cultivators, the couple spent the majority of their time in seclusion.

The Shen family was far away in Yun Nation. If anything happened, they might not be able to rush to their aid.

Moreover, the Jiang family was getting bigger and bigger. Relying on three Violet Palace cultivators was no longer sufficient.

If the Shen family could help, it would undoubtedly make things much easier for the Jiang family.

It could also greatly increase the strength and foundation of the two families.

This was a win-win situation.

Unexpectedly, the Shen family took the initiative to integrate into the Jiang family.

Once it happened, the Shen family would lose their independence.

However, the benefits were very obvious.

First, it was the resources from the Jiang family. As long as the Shen family had enough contribution points, they could exchange for them from the Jiang family.

This included the Purple Heaven Pill, Violet Palace Jade, the Five Elements Crystal, the Foundation Establishment Pill, and so on.

If the Shen family had enough contribution points, it was not impossible to exchange the Core Formation Pill.

However, if the Shen family did not integrate into the Jiang family, it would undoubtedly be much harder for them to get their hands on these precious items.

Even if they had a special relationship with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, it was useless.

Firstly, as the ancestors of the Jiang family, they could not violate the rules they had set.

Secondly, their current identities were the Jiang family’s ancestor and not the Shen family’s ancestor. Violet Palace Jade and Core Formation Pill were strategic resources. Even if no one in the family could use them for the time being, they would definitely not trade them off easily.

Even if they planned to, the price would definitely not be low.

Lastly, and most importantly, Shen Yuanlong, Shen Daoming, and those who were directly related to Shen Ruyan wouldn’t just be the only ones who the Jiang family had to take care of.

If they were to integrate into the Jiang family, the entire Shen family would be under the protection of the Jiang family.

Shen Yuanlong and the other two clearly understood this, so they came to talk about this.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan naturally wouldn’t refuse.

And nor did the three Violet Palace cultivators of the Jiang family who had just rushed over.

When this matter was completely settled,

Only Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Shen Yuanlong, and Shen Daoming were left on Xuanming Peak. Shen Ruyan handed a Water Apricot Fruit to Shen Yuanlong.

“Fifth Granduncle, this fruit can help you increase 50 years worth of Dharmic power.

After consuming it, you should be ready to break through to the ninth level of the Violet Palace.

At that time, you might even have a chance of breaking through to the Golden Core realm.”

Long ago, Shen Yuanlong had already reached the eighth level of the Violet Palace.

The Apricot Fruit that Shen Ruyan gave him was exactly what he needed.

There were only about three years left until the ten-year no-war period.

During this period, every time the Jiang family increased their strength, they would have more hope of winning the war in the future.

After Shen Yuanlong accepted the Apricot Fruit and bade farewell to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, the couple immediately prepared to use the Level 4 demon beast materials they had obtained to refine corresponding Level 4 Dharma treasures.

This time, the couple decided to refine the treasures together.

As an aid, Jiang Chengxuan cooperated with Shen Ruyan.

The first thing they refined was a flying Dharma treasure that used the

Blood-striped Eagle King’s wings as the main material.

The difficulty of refining this treasure was higher.

Even with Shen Ruyan’s refinement skills and Jiang Chengxuan’s help, it still took nearly two years.

Looking at how well-made the Dharma treasure was, it was no wonder that the couple had spent so much time and effort.

The entire Dharma treasure was in the shape of a pair of red wings.

There were many acceleration and floating array runes engraved on it.

Combined with the material of this treasure,

Once it was activated, it would be enough to triple Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s speed.

“Husband, give this Dharma treasure a name.”

Shen Ruyan handed the Dharma treasure to Jiang Chengxuan and said with a smile.

Jiang Chengxuan thought for a moment and said, “Since this treasure is made from the wings of the Blood-striped Eagle King, let’s call it the Blood Eagle Wings.”

“Blood Eagle Wings?”

Shen Ruyan nodded.

“Not bad.

Since you gave it a name, it’ll be yours.

As you know, with my speed, the potential of this flying Dharma treasure can’t be completely unleashed.

On the contrary, if you use it, you will be able to unleash greater power.”

Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, Jiang Chengxuan only hesitated for a moment before nodding.

“Alright, but you have to take the inner armor that we are going to refine next.

“You also know that I have the Infinite Wheel, so my defensive ability is much stronger than yours.

That Dharma treasure is more suitable for you.”

Hearing that, Shen Ruyan nodded.

Next, the couple used the spider essence to start refining the Level 4 defensive inner armor.

Refining this Dharma treasure was clearly less difficult than refining the Blood Eagle Wings.

However, it still took the couple more than a year.

At this moment.

The situation in the Cangnan Region was already very tense, especially so between the Liang Nation and the Zheng Nation.

Many conflicts had broken out between the cultivators of both sides.

This was because the rest period had ended.

There was no longer a truce stopping the two sides.

Therefore, the clashes and skirmishes had been intensifying day by day.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had just come out of their cave abodes when the family head, Jiang Renyi, came to look for them.

From Jiang Renyi, the couple learned that at this moment, the Liang Nation and the Zheng Nation had already fought many times at the border, a place called Hundred Rivers Ridge.

The Jade Water Sword Pavilion and the Heavenly Yue Sect had already sent a large number of low-level cultivators to that place.

As for the Jiang family, they had also sent many Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment cultivators into the battlefield.

Because the two of them were still in seclusion at that time, as the family head, Jiang Renyi did not disturb them and made a decision on his own.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan naturally wouldn’t blame him for this.

At the same time, they also learned from Jiang Renyi that the current situation of the war was only limited to the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment Realm. It had not expanded to the first level of the Violet Palace Realm.

However, from what Jiang Renyi said, the situation in Liang Nation was not particularly optimistic.

It was no wonder.

The Zheng Nation had more land and more cultivators than the Liang Nation.

Without the support of the Yun Nation and the Yan Nation, it was normal that they were no match for the Zheng Nation for the time being.

However, what made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan puzzled was that this was only the early stage of the war, but the Golden Core forces of the Zheng Nation were all involved.

Back then, what they demanded was an explanation from the Shangguan family.

In the end, all the low-level cultivators in the Zheng Nation went to the battlefield.

What were the other Golden Core forces in the Zheng Nation after?

For camaraderie?

That was unllikely.

Only benefits and enough benefits could make them unite and not hesitate to start a war against the Liang Nation.

So what benefits could there be that could make many Golden Core forces in the Zheng Nation join forces to fight against them?

Just as this thought flashed through Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s minds, the communication jade talisman on their bodies suddenly lit up.

The two of them quickly took out the communication jade talisman to check.

As they read the message, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s expressions changed..
