Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 9: ‘Dragon Tiger Arhat Power’ and ‘Jiang Li Human Emperor Power

Translator: 549690339

“Senior Zhang, why don’t we give up on this?” Yuan Wuxing tried to suggest while shrinking his neck.

“You’re afraid?”

“Who would be scared of those beasts in the Jiang family? The sight of their bones still fills me with rage.” Yuan Wuxing retorted, his neck stiffened and his forehead veins bulged out. However, he soon drooped again.

“If we really disturb the faith in the Human Emperor and as a result, affect the fight against Heavenly Demons, then we would really become the sinners of all time.”

The death of hundreds of babies is undoubtedly a big issue. But the Human Emperor’s protection of Jiuzhou is even more significant. If Yuan Wuxing were to choose, he’d probably opt for the latter.

Jiang Li chuckled: “You’re overthinking.” He said, “My sect’s leader once told me, that the current Human Emperor is exceptionally talented, surpasses the previous Emperors. The power addition from faith to Emperor Jiang, it’s good if he has it, and it won’t affect anything if he doesn’t.”

Yuan Wuxing immediately felt relieved.

What Jiang Li didn’t say was that every time he survived the Heavenly Tribulation, he got slightly stronger. After his fourth tribulation, he didn’t need the power of faith anymore. A hundred and sixty years ago, he had refined a bronze ding and placed it in the Imperial Palace. All the faith towards him from all of Jiuzhou didn’t bless him but entered into the bronze ding, saved for the next Human Emperor.

…

“System.”

At the silence of midnight, Jiang Li called out the system interface.

[Congratulations to the host for enduring hard training and tough battles, defeated Jiang Yixing. Do you want to checkout the reward?]

Jiang Li twitched at the corners of his mouth, wanting to ask when the so-called “hard training and tough battles” happened.

Suppressing his urge to retort, Jiang Li said, “Settle the reward.”

A stream of pure power descended from the void into Jiang Li’s body.

“This power…”

Jiang Li showed a surprised expression, “…is actually less than what I generate with a single breath. Oh, it’s meant for the Qi Cultivation stage. That’s alright then.”

According to Jiang Li’s estimate, if he had this power during his Foundation Establishment stage, he would have achieved a “perfect” state. This treatment was something that only the core disciples of large sects had, with a much more robust foundation than the regular Foundation Establishment cultivators and multiple times the combat effectiveness.

“Good stuff,” Jiang Li made a compliment, and then he expelled this power from his body.

Who would refine a power of unknown origin as a joke?

Following that, a bamboo book tied with a thin red thread fell from the void. It was called “Dragon Tiger Arhat Power”, a body cultivation technique.

According to the introduction of this cultivation technique, as one goes deeper into its practice, it gradually alters the practitioner’s blood. When one’s emotions surge, it can burst out with incomparable power. The level of the cultivation technique is broken down according to animal forces, such as the power of one bull, one tiger, one elephant, one jiao, one dragon, and so on. The benchmark for initial success is to have the power of one tiger, for medium success one dragon’s power, and for the accomplished stage, the integration of dragon and tiger power. Those who practiced till the accomplished stage could fight against a true dragon when extremely angry, which is extremely savage.

Having finished reading the introduction within two minutes and doing some quick estimations for three minutes, Jiang Li’s conclusion was: he had wasted five minutes.

This body cultivation technique was powerful, that even a Divinity Transformation stage cultivator would see it as a treasure.

But for Jiang Li, it was useless.

Now the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas all practiced a technique called “Jiang Li Human Emperor Power”, rumored to be compiled personally by the Four Sea Dragon Kings. Those who practiced till the accomplished stage could arm wrestle with Emperor Jiang Li’s one hand.

Judging by the results, no dragon clan member has been able to beat Jiang Li’s one hand yet.

As for other things, such as elixirs with dan clouds and dan fragrances, middle-grade spirit swords, Jiang Li had no interest at all.

He allocated a special area in his storage ring for the system and put these elixirs, treasures and body cultivation techniques in one pile, attaching a label which read:

The useless things given by the lonely system No.2

Obviously, the newbie gift pack was No.1.

[Release new task: After you join the Transform Cloud Sect, the son of the supreme elder, Yun Bo, believes that your Five Elements Spiritual Root pulls down the average level of the sect’s spiritual roots, and gives you a hard time everywhere. Please defeat him with overwhelming strength.]

[This task can be abandoned]

[Reward for this task: One chance of enlightenment dropping from the sky, one fragment of a mysterious map, one top-grade spiritual artifact of any style (can be advanced)]

This time, Jiang Li could quickly recall who Yun Bo was.

The Transform Cloud Sect was a small sect near Qingcheng, with a sect leader who was in the late stage of Golden Core, and five Golden Core elders. When Jiang Li first demonstrated only the worst Five Elements Spiritual root, no sect wanted to accept him. Jiang Li took advantage of the purchasing activities of the Transform Cloud Sect’s disciples, inferred that the Transform Cloud Sect was tight on funds. He got an opportunity to talk with the sect leader, he explained the local economic situation and some money-making tips. The sect leader was awestruck and allowed Jiang Li to take over the sect’s finances under his supervision despite the general opposition.

Jiang Li did not disappoint; he reversed the deficit situation of the Transform Cloud Sect, even acquired several small sects, and after finally receiving the Transform Cloud Sect’s core cultivation techniques and guidance from the Supreme Elder, Jiang Li once again embarked on his journey across Zhou.

During this time, Yun Bo grouped up and bullied the newbie, Jiang Li and the Supreme elder had a discussion, they faked the elder’s death. Those who followed Yun Bo scattered, and Yun Bo finally understood that cultivation was the most critical after experiencing the warmth and harshness of human nature. Then he admitted his mistakes and began to cultivate diligently.

“When I returned to the Transform Cloud Sect three hundred years ago, Yun Bo had already cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage. In addition to the few Lifespan Extension Pills I gave him, it won’t be a problem for him to still be alive.”

Jiang Li decided not to abandon the mission for now.

That fragment of a mysterious map attracted him.

[A new function has been opened: Store]

Jiang Li was delighted, finally a function that looked interesting, he brought up the store, a light screen appeared in his mind like a computer, items were neatly arranged on it, and there were plenty.

Whenever his consciousness focused on an item, the light screen would display the item’s brief introduction.

However, Jiang Li was disappointed soon, all the items displayed on the light screen were things from this world. There were neither cellphones, computers, nuclear bombs, satellites from his past life nor special products from the Immortal Realm.

Whether there were mobile phones or not did not matter, he mainly wanted to try what it felt like to resist a nuclear bomb with his physical body.

“System, aren’t there any products from other worlds?”

[Please find other worlds first]

Jiang Li curled his lips, yet another useless function, if he could go to other places would he need this system?

“System, help me sort by the number of source points needed, from high to low.”

The quantity of items on the light screen changed quickly, the methods of the Imperial Palace were ranked at the forefront, followed by the Dao Sect’s Sect’s Treasure Yin Yang Sky Seal, then the bottom line treasures of other sects and palaces, the Transcendance Tribulation Stage puppet, the Immortal’s notes and so on.

Although these things are good, Jiang Li either used them or found them useless.

For instance, during the fight against the Heavenly Demons from outside the realm, the Dao Sect had lent Jiang Li the Taiji Sky Seal. Jiang Li tried to use the seal a few times but found his own weapons to be handier, so he returned the seal to the Dao Sect. He had no use for a Transcendance Tribulation Stage puppet either, as a magnificent Mahayana Stage cultivator, what would he do with a Transcendance Tribulation Stage puppet? As for the Immortal’s notes, he had read them in exchange for sharing his cultivation experience.

Moreover, Jiang Li suspected that these items didn’t just appear from thin air but were stolen from the sects.
