Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Even so, Wei Xu was helpless.

”The Array on Changqing Mountain was clearly broken, yet it repaired itself. That means everything that happened before was an illusion. I’ve tried to leave this place multiple times, but even after escaping for hundreds of miles, I return in the very next instant. Sometimes, I’m clearly moving forward, but I’m actually going backward...”

As he recalled the events that had just transpired, Wei Xu’s heart grew heavier.

It was a feeling he knew all too well.

Where reality and illusion were indistinguishable, truth and falsehood blurred, and everything was turned upside down...

「Back then.」

When he entered the palace in the Great Jin ruins, he had the same feeling!

’What kind of technique is this?’

At this moment, Wei Xu finally understood.

’Li Chang’an didn’t get the Treasure from that palace because of his incredible luck. It’s because he possesses this very same power!’

After a moment of contemplation, Wei Xu said to the other three, ”Let’s join forces and focus all our power on a single point. Use your strongest techniques.”

”Agreed. We were thinking the same thing!”

The three had no objections and planned to attack together.

’We’ll shatter this illusion with absolute power!’

But the situation that followed was beyond everyone’s expectations.

They clearly joined forces to attack a single corner, yet their Magic scattered in every direction, never converging. It was bizarre beyond description.

”Why is this happening?”

The three Array Masters grew increasingly anxious.

They were about to join forces again.

But soon, they discovered more abnormalities.

”Something’s wrong. Why do the three of you feel so far away?”

”I have the same feeling!”

The four exchanged glances, their eyes filled with confusion and unease.

They were clearly standing together, yet it felt as if they were separated by an immeasurable distance, an inexplicable chasm between them.

One of them seemed to remember something and cried out in alarm.

”Heaven and Earth Shifting, Confusing Profound Mechanism! This is the technique of a Tier Four Divination Grandmaster!”

”What?”

Wei Xu and the other two Array Masters were all deeply shaken.

Any Skill that reaches Tier Four is enough to make a Nascent Soul True Monarch take it seriously, and the Divination Skill is one of the most important Skills of all.

If this truly was a Tier Four technique, then it was no wonder they were trapped.

’But Li Chang’an is just a Loose Cultivator at the Early Stage of Golden Core. How could he possibly possess such power?’

Wei Xu took a deep breath, suppressing the shock and astonishment in his heart.

There was no time to think about it now.

’It seems I must use every trick I have, or my life will be on the line today!’

With that, he planned to take out all his trump cards from his Storage Pouch.

But he suddenly froze.

”My Storage Pouch...”

Wei Xu’s face stiffened. His Storage Pouch was gone, and he had no idea when it had disappeared!

It wasn’t just his.

The three Array Masters’ Storage Pouches had also vanished.

Before they could even react, they were horrified to find that they had somehow appeared in the courtyard of Changqing Mountain.

”Welcome, guests from afar. Please, have a seat, you four Daoists.”

Li Chang’an wore a smile, his voice warm and gentle.

In front of him, four Storage Pouches were laid out in a neat row—precisely those belonging to Wei Xu and the three Array Masters.

”Li Chang’an!”

Wei Xu’s face filled with killing intent. No longer able to suppress the frustration in his heart, his figure flashed as he charged straight at Li Chang’an.

But that strange phenomenon occurred once again.

He was clearly getting closer to Li Chang’an, yet the distance between them only grew.

When he stopped, it was as if he had never moved at all. He was still in the courtyard, standing with the three Array Masters.

An indescribable sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.

He possessed a high Cultivation, but it was completely useless.

He could only watch helplessly as Li Chang’an rummaged through his Storage Pouch.

”A Thousand-Year Earth Pattern Ginseng. This is just what I need. Thank you, Daoist Wei, for bringing it to me.”

Li Chang’an smiled, and with a flash of Spiritual Light in his hand, an entirely earth-yellow Treasure Ginseng appeared.

This ginseng had four small roots, like a person’s limbs, as well as hundreds upon thousands of fine rootlets. Its entire body exuded the alluring fragrance of a Treasure Medicine.

Dahuang’s eyes lit up. With an eager, fawning expression, it came before Li Chang’an and wagged its tail.

Li Chang’an chuckled. ”Don’t be impatient. I still have a use for this.”

He put it away and continued to inspect the other Treasures.

As the Saint Child of the Yellow Sand Sect, Wei Xu naturally had many Treasures in his Storage Pouch, but all the High Tier Treasures bore the Divine Sense Imprint of Huang Sha True Monarch.

Li Chang’an didn’t touch them, only selecting a few ordinary Treasures that he could use.

The other three Array Masters’ Storage Pouches also contained plenty of Treasures, most of which were Array Materials.

”Your Array Treasures are quite good. I’ll gladly accept them.”

Li Chang’an said to the three with a smile.

Hearing this, the faces of the three men turned extremely ugly.

「Just a moment ago.」

They had said the exact same thing to Li Chang’an.

In the blink of an eye, their roles had been reversed.

One of them, unwilling to die there, said, ”Daoist Li, our statuses within the Yellow Sand Sect are not low. If we all perish here, it will definitely attract attention. Why don’t you let us go? I’m willing to swear an oath that I won’t speak of what happened today!”

”Right, I’m also willing to make a Dao Heart oath!”

”Daoist Li, I know you don’t enjoy fighting and killing. Why attract the attention of the Yellow Sand Sect over the likes of us?”

The other two quickly chimed in.

They begged for mercy while also trying to reason with Li Chang’an about the situation.

Li Chang’an gave a faint smile. ”It’s true that I don’t enjoy fighting and killing. But since the three of you came knocking on my door, it would be a shame not to show my appreciation for your kind intentions.”

’As for the Yellow Sand Sect... Huang Sha True Monarch already has his eyes on me. A little more attention won’t make a difference.’

Li Chang’an flicked his finger, sending out three rays of green light that condensed into Wood Seeds inside the three men’s bodies.

A moment later, the three of them were turned into Puppets.

Li Chang’an put the three of them away, leaving only Wei Xu.

”Daoist Wei, how strong is your senior brother, Gu Yunqi? What are his specific techniques?”
