Eternal Life by Daily Divination

They were useful to Li Chang’an himself, but he couldn’t use them to exchange for Cyan Condensing Jade from the Old Turtle.

”Daoist Vermilion Bird, do you have any rarer Life-Extending Treasures?”

Hearing this, Vermilion Bird True Monarch stated that these were already the rarest Life-Extending Treasures they could offer. Naturally, they had even rarer ones. However, they also planned to trade with the Old Turtle, so it was impossible to give them to Li Chang’an.

Ultimately, Li Chang’an exchanged a large piece of Fire Cloud Crystal for three Life-Extending Treasures. To an ordinary person, these three treasures would extend their lifespan by a total of one hundred years. For him, they provided two hundred years. Once the transaction was complete, he did not linger and left the Vermilion Bird Sect.

”Four Daoists, there is no need to see me out!” Li Chang’an executed his Escape Technique and vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Outside the Vermilion Bird Sect.

The four watched the direction in which he disappeared, deep in thought.

”This Daoist Lin indeed seems to just be a Loose Cultivator.”

”As long as he is not of the Demonic path, it is fine.”

Half a day later.

Li Chang’an returned to Changqing Mountain. That very night, he consumed the three Life-Extending Treasures, raising his lifespan to over one thousand eight hundred years.

”Not bad. Although it still can’t compare to the Old Turtle, it’s at least enough to outlive the current batch of Nascent Soul True Monarchs,” Li Chang’an thought, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly. He was quite satisfied with his current lifespan.

According to rumors in this world, even a Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarch only had a lifespan of two thousand years. Only by achieving Ascension to the Immortal Realm could one obtain a longer life. In other words, as a Golden Core Cultivator, Li Chang’an’s lifespan was gradually approaching that of a Divinity Transformation Powerhouse.

Over the next few days, he made a trip to the Fire Cloud Secret Realm, urging the various Divine Emperors to continue encouraging mortals to bear children. Afterward, he left Changqing Mountain once more and headed to the Central Domain to visit the Wang Family. This time, he did not use another identity and suppressed his Cultivation to the Early Stage of Golden Core.

The Wang Clan Territory was no longer in its previous location. After that calamitous destruction, the Wang Family nurtured a new Tier Four Spirit Vein in the southern part of the Central Domain.

”This new location is quite nice,” Li Chang’an thought, his eyes profound as he gazed into the distance.

The new Wang Clan Territory was situated at the junction of three major factions: the Purple Mist Sect, the Yellow Sand Sect, and the Great Qi Immortal Dynasty. If they encountered danger, all three factions could quickly rush to their aid.

Li Chang’an arrived outside the Wang Clan Territory, announced his identity, and requested an audience with the Wang Family Ancestor, Wang Yannian.

It did not take long for Wang Qianling to appear before him. Dressed in a simple, elegant skirt, her skin as white as snow, she gave Li Chang’an a gentle and graceful smile.

”Daoist Li, the Ancestor is in the main hall of the family. Please follow me.”

”Alright. Thank you for the trouble, Daoist Wang.”

Li Chang’an followed Wang Qianling into the Wang Clan Territory. Shortly after, the two entered the Wang Family’s main hall.

Sitting in the seat of honor was a very young man in a white robe. It was none other than Wang Yannian. The reason he appeared so youthful was that he had Possessed this body, which originally belonged to a Wang Family Celestial Pride.

”Li, what brings you here today?” Wang Yannian smiled. His voice was also much younger than before, though it carried a hint of worldly vicissitudes.

Li Chang’an replied, ”Elder Wang, this junior wishes to obtain a Celestial Soul Fruit.”

”Oh?” Wang Yannian’s hand flashed with Spiritual Light, and a Spirit Fruit shaped like an infant materialized.

Instantly, a rich medicinal fragrance permeated the entire Wang Family main hall. The fruit was pure white, as if carved from white jade, fully possessing the facial features and limbs of an infant. It was exactly the Celestial Soul Fruit that countless Golden Core Cultivators thirsted for!

”Li, this is the Celestial Soul Fruit,” Wang Yannian said slowly, his gaze falling upon Li Chang’an. ”However, this Celestial Soul Fruit is exceptionally precious. It is not even enough for the disciples of my Wang Family, so how could I give it to an outsider?”

Hearing this, Li Chang’an looked thoughtful. Wang Yannian seemed to be refusing, but Li Chang’an heard a sliver of opportunity. If this Wang Family Ancestor truly didn’t want to give it to him, why bother bringing the Celestial Soul Fruit out for him to see?

Li Chang’an asked directly, ”Elder Wang, what conditions do you have?”

”You are indeed intelligent, Li,” Wang Yannian responded mildly. ”My condition is very simple, and it remains the same as that day on Changqing Mountain. As long as you marry into my Wang Family, this Celestial Soul Fruit will be yours. Not only the Celestial Soul Fruit, but the Wang Family will also prepare the treasures for Crossing the Thunder Tribulation and the Heart Demon Tribulation for you.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Qianling beside Li Chang’an.

A blush immediately crept up Wang Qianling’s pretty face, and her delicate hands unconsciously gripped the hem of her skirt.

If it were any other Golden Core Loose Cultivator, they would have likely agreed on the spot. However, Li Chang’an did not have to think much and rejected the offer once again.

”Elder Wang, could you change the condition?”

”Hmm?” The smile on Wang Yannian’s face abruptly vanished, and his expression darkened. He put away the Celestial Soul Fruit and questioned coldly, ”Li Chang’an, I have invited you twice and offered you the best terms. Why do you still refuse? Could it be that you think my Wang Family is not worthy of you?”

As he spoke, the slight pressure of a Nascent Soul fell upon Li Chang’an.

Li Chang’an did not feel any discomfort. He cupped his hands and replied, ”Elder Wang, this junior is accustomed to cultivating alone and truly cannot bear the responsibility of an entire family. I only ask that you change the condition.”

”Very well, then I will give you another path!” Wang Yannian waved his large hand.

The phantoms of over a dozen cultivators instantly surfaced before Li Chang’an’s eyes. Each of these dozen or so people possessed astonishing auras. Impressively, they were all Nascent Soul True Monarchs, and Demonic Nascent Souls at that!

”Li Chang’an, these dozen or so people are the Nascent Soul Old Demons who besieged my Wang Clan Territory that day. As long as you can bring the head of any one of them to me, I will give you the Celestial Soul Fruit!”

Hearing this, Li Chang’an remained silent, quietly observing these dozen or so Demonic True Monarchs.

However, Wang Qianling beside him revealed a worried expression, feeling anxious in her heart. She secretly transmitted a message via Sound Transmission, ”Ancestor, Li Chang’an is merely a Golden Core Cultivator. How could he possibly kill a Nascent Soul?”

”He wanted a condition, so naturally, I am giving him a condition! Qianling, there is no need to plead for him. I am doing this all for your own good.”

”I...” Wang Qianling bit her red lip lightly, her expression complicated.

If Li Chang’an did not have the ability to kill a Demonic Nascent Soul and had no other channel to obtain the Celestial Soul Fruit, his only choice would be to marry into the Wang Family.
