Eternal Life by Daily Divination

For a time after that.

He was constantly preparing to deal with Prince Huai.

Prince Huai was connected to the Faith Technique; carelessness was not an option.

...

「One month later.」

Li Chang’an left Changqing Mountain and arrived in the Cultivation Realm of Yuan Country.

He entered a Secret Realm in Yuan Country called the Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Realm and found a remote ruin deep within to lay his trap.

After finishing his preparations.

Li Chang’an didn’t act immediately. Instead, he quietly awaited the appearance of the Divination.

That night at Midnight, a golden light appeared.

[Divination has been refreshed]

[Today’s Divination: Auspicious]

[You use yourself as bait, luring Prince Huai out of Great Qi territory. You lead him into a trap, successfully defeat him, and obtain the Faith Technique.]

’It worked!’

Looking at the Divination’s contents, Li Chang’an’s heart was put at ease.

He immediately released Qi Jingyun from his Spirit Beast Bag, gave her a Memory Stone, and controlled her to return to the Great Qi Immortal Dynasty.

...

「During this time.」

Prince Huai was at his wit’s end from the Wang Family’s constant harassment.

The other party refused to face him head-on, simply roaming around Great Qi territory. They carried a Treasure that shielded them from heavenly prying, making it impossible for even a Tier Four Divination Grandmaster to deduce their true location.

”Those damned Cultivators from the Wang Family!”

Prince Huai cursed, wishing he could flay them alive.

His life had once been smooth sailing.

But ever since his defeat at Jiang Xuanyuan’s hands, he seemed to be cursed with bad luck, and everything had taken a sharp downturn.

Whether it was internal matters at Prince Huai’s Mansion or external affairs dealing with the Wang Family, nothing was going smoothly, leaving him utterly frustrated.

”Jiang Xuanyuan!”

The mere thought of Jiang Xuanyuan made Prince Huai burn with rage.

Unfortunately, he was no match for Jiang Xuanyuan.

Because of this.

He could only direct his anger toward someone else.

’I hear that brat Li Chang’an is having it easy. I’ll let him enjoy himself a little longer. Once I’ve dealt with this, I’ll find a chance to kill him!’

Just as he was thinking this.

Li Chang’an sent the controlled Qi Jingyun to him.

He bowed and said, ”Ancestor, I have an urgent matter to report.”

Prince Huai glanced at him. ”What is it?”

”Ancestor, I recently went to the Southern Domain to capture Li Chang’an alive. However, I discovered he is not in the Southern Domain, but in a Secret Realm in Yuan Country.”

”Yuan Country?”

”Yes, Ancestor. Please, look.”

He presented a Memory Stone.

Inside the Memory Stone was footage of Li Chang’an Treasure Hunting in the Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Realm.

”Ancestor, the Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Realm is fraught with danger. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to take down Li Chang’an and would instead alert him, causing him to seek help from Jiang Xuanyuan again. That is why I have come to seek your counsel.”

”A simple matter. I will go with you personally!”

Prince Huai made up his mind on the spot. He already wanted to deal with Li Chang’an, and it just so happened that Li Chang’an was not on Changqing Mountain.

This was a rare opportunity.

He had heard that Changqing Mountain was filled with numerous Arrays and mechanical traps, which Li Chang’an had turned into a fortress.

If Li Chang’an were still on Changqing Mountain, he would actually be more difficult to deal with.

Although leaving Great Qi territory would cause him to gradually lose the Power of Faith, he wasn’t worried.

’Even without the Power of Faith, I am still a Celestial Pride at the Golden Core Peak. The power of any random Magic I cast surpasses the Golden Core Limit. There’s no way that Li Chang’an can block it.’

Prince Huai was extremely confident in his own strength.

Besides, even in Yuan Country, he could still receive a slight boost from the Power of Faith; he wouldn’t drop completely back to Golden Core Peak.

Furthermore, he had plenty of Tier Four Cards.

’Killing one Li Chang’an won’t be difficult!’

Soon.

He took Qi Jingyun, left Great Qi territory, and rushed to Yuan Country.

He told no one of his trip, not even the Emperor of Great Qi.

If the Emperor of Great Qi had known, he most likely would have stopped him.

’I’ll just kill Li Chang’an and come right back. There shouldn’t be any mishaps.’

Prince Huai’s Escape Technique was extremely fast, and he rapidly approached the Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Realm.

During this time.

His strength continuously declined.

After arriving at the Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Realm, just as he had predicted, his Magical Power still surpassed the Golden Core Limit.

’Li Chang’an, this prince has arrived!’

A glint of killing intent flashed in Prince Huai’s eyes as he sped toward the location shown in the Memory Stone’s footage.

Soon, he sensed Li Chang’an’s aura.

It was just ahead, in a stretch of ruins!

Li Chang’an seemed completely unaware, still searching for Treasure among the ruins.

”Die!”

Prince Huai’s expression was vicious, and he struck with extreme decisiveness.

Without a single wasted word, he immediately used his strongest Magic on the spot.

BOOM!

The area where Li Chang’an stood, along with a large section of the ruins, was obliterated into dust.

However.

He himself was completely unscathed.

The Magic had just passed right through his body without causing any damage whatsoever.

’An Illusion?’

Prince Huai’s heart sank, and he instantly felt that something was wrong.

Without the slightest hesitation, his figure shot backward. He gave up on trying to kill Li Chang’an and decided to leave the area first.

But it was too late!

One after another, Quasi-Tier Four Grand Arrays rose up in all directions, layered upon each other, blotting out the sky and cutting off all his escape routes.

”Prince Huai, since you’ve already come all this way, why the hurry to leave?”

Li Chang’an appeared not far from him, a smile on his face.

Prince Huai’s face darkened. He instantly launched an attack, but still failed to harm Li Chang’an.

It was another Illusion created by an Illusion Array!

Next.

Li Chang’an appeared several more times.

But every single time, it was an Illusion, never his true body.

RUMBLE...

The numerous Quasi-Tier Four Grand Arrays activated, their terrifying killing intent merging into one.

In an instant, countless streams of Array Power wove together into a great net. Carrying an astonishing aura, it descended from the sky, threatening to completely annihilate Prince Huai.

Prince Huai snorted coldly and unleashed a Celestial Grade Magic, attempting to tear the net of Array Power to shreds.

But the Magic passed right through the great net.

’Still an Illusion?’

Prince Huai’s expression grew uglier and uglier.

Within the Array, the virtual was indistinguishable from the real, and truth was inseparable from falsehood.

Moreover, a strange power was constantly interfering with his judgment.

He stared intently at an illusory image of Li Chang’an and barked coldly.

”Li Chang’an, you have some nerve! A mere Golden Core Cultivator dares to move against a Nascent Soul True Monarch!”

”Daoist Qi, you are mistaken.”

Li Chang’an replied with a smile.

”You are only at the Golden Core realm, not Nascent Soul. You and I are in the same Major Realm.”
