Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Pu Rongzheng explained the Pu Family’s plans. He had heard that Li Chang’an, a Golden Core Loose Cultivator from Changqing Mountain in the Southern Domain, was adept at self-preservation. He wanted to discuss ways to survive in these chaotic times with him.

Hearing this, Li Chang’an was momentarily speechless. Most of his self-preservation skills relied on Divination; this guy was probably going to be disappointed.

”Alright, I’ll escort you for this journey. When do you plan to relocate?”

”In exactly three days,” Pu Rongzheng provided the exact time.

Li Chang’an nodded slightly. ”Alright, I’ll be here on time in three days to escort you to the Southern Domain.”

”Thank you, Daoist!”

”There is no need to thank me. It’s just a transaction. Do you know the value of that Insect Cocoon?”

”I don’t.” Pu Rongzheng shook his head, having no idea what the Insect Cocoon was used for. Not long ago, he had heard that a rare piece of Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade had appeared beneath that continuous mountain range. Therefore, just like Li Chang’an, he had planned to try his luck. It had to be said that his luck wasn’t bad. The value of this Insect Cocoon was not inferior to a piece of Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade in the slightest, but he simply didn’t realize it, nor did he know its use.

”This item is of no use to me anyway,” Pu Rongzheng added. ”For me, there is no loss at all.”

Hearing this, Li Chang’an didn’t say anything more. He left behind a Communication Treasure and vanished from the spot.

”This Daoist’s strength is truly astonishing.” Pu Rongzheng spread out his Divine Sense but couldn’t find a single trace of him. He immediately rushed to another courtyard to inform Pu Rongyun, the other Golden Core cultivator of the Pu Family, about the matter.

”Rongyun, that Daoist possesses extraordinary strength. With his help, our journey will be much safer.”

”Ah Zheng, do you know his name and which faction he belongs to?” Pu Rongyun furrowed her delicate brows and inquired carefully.

But Pu Rongzheng didn’t know any of this. He only knew that Li Chang’an was very strong and that his Cultivation far surpassed his own. After a round of questioning, Pu Rongyun sighed deeply.

”Ah Zheng, if that man is a Demon Cultivator, your invitation will bring about the extermination of our Pu Family!”

”Rongyun, if that Daoist were truly a Demon Cultivator, why would he wait three days to destroy our Pu Family? With his strength, he could wipe us out right now,” Pu Rongzheng retorted, trusting his own judgment. Li Chang’an clearly could have snatched the item and silenced him, but he hadn’t done so. Instead, he gave him a chance to make a transaction. Such character was already rare in today’s Cultivation Immortality Realm. Even many powerful experts of the Righteous Dao often engaged in murder and robbery for Treasures, let alone those Demon Cultivators in the north.

”In my opinion, that Daoist must be a virtuous cultivator who often performs good deeds, possesses deep blessings, and has astonishing luck. You don’t need to worry, Rongyun.”

Hearing this, Pu Rongyun’s face was filled with helplessness. ”So be it. I’ve hired the Three Heroes of the Northern Domain for our escort. If that man really harbors ulterior motives, they will be enough to stop him.”

Over the next three days, the entire Pu Family was busy.

Li Chang’an was equally swamped, spending nearly every waking moment searching for Treasures beneath the earth of the Northern Domain. Thanks to his astonishing luck, he found a massive amount of Treasures, including several Tier Four Treasures, but he still couldn’t find any Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade.

Moreover, the news Luo Qiantong sent back wasn’t very good either. He had sent someone to contact the Five Poison Saintess, Ye Qiuling, and conveyed his desire to make a trade. Ye Qiuling agreed to the transaction, but she demanded an exorbitant price, asking Luo Qiantong to produce a Nascent Soul Pill.

Luo Qiantong asked, ”Uncle Li, do you have a Nascent Soul Pill?”

”How could I possibly have such a thing? Even if I did, there’s no way I’d trade it away!” Li Chang’an replied.

The value of a Nascent Soul Pill far exceeded that of Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade. Furthermore, Ye Qiuling didn’t even need a Nascent Soul Pill. Given her talent, the Five Poisons Valley would definitely prepare enough Nascent Soul Treasures for her. In other words, her willingness to trade was not very strong.

Li Chang’an instructed Luo Qiantong, ”Qiantong, keep gathering other information and try your best to trade for a piece of Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade.” As he spoke, he handed over a list of Tier Four Treasures. The items on this list were all Treasures he already possessed and could be used for trading. ”Release the word that all these Treasures are up for trade. If anyone contacts you, notify me immediately.”

After giving his instructions, Li Chang’an arrived at Pu’s Immortal City. The entire Pu Family had finished packing. All their Treasures and important family members were aboard a Tier Three Flying Ship.

”A Tier Three Middle Grade Flying Ship, coupled with a Tier Three Top Grade Array. The defense isn’t bad,” Li Chang’an briefly commented as he landed on the Flying Ship.

Pu Rongzheng’s eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward to welcome him. ”Daoist, you’re finally here.”

”Am I late? When are we departing?”

”We could have departed half an hour ago, but I asked Rongyun to wait a bit.”

”Very well, let’s depart now,” Li Chang’an said casually.

Escorting a Golden Core Clan posed no difficulty for him.

Just then, a woman exuding a heroic spirit walked over. She wore Snow-colored Battle Armor and wielded a long saber. Her gaze slightly narrowed, landing on Li Chang’an as she scrutinized him for a moment.

”I am Pu Rongyun, the current Patriarch of the Pu Family. May I know how to address you, Daoist?”

”I am Lin Fan, just a Loose Cultivator,” Li Chang’an replied casually.

Afterward, Pu Rongyun asked a few more questions, seemingly trying to probe into his background.

As they spoke, three burly men approached. All three were tall and robust with extraordinary auras. The strongest among them possessed Golden Core Peak Cultivation, while the other two had Late Stage Golden Core Cultivation.

Pu Rongyun introduced them to him. ”Daoist Lin, these three are the Three Heroes of the Northern Domain. You must have heard of them.”

”Mhm.” Li Chang’an nodded slightly.

Having spent many days in the Northern Domain, he had naturally heard the titles of these three brothers. All three originated as Loose Cultivators and had performed well in the Battle of Righteous and Evil. He could tell that Pu Rongyun harbored some wariness toward him, so she was using these three brothers to intimidate him. But he couldn’t be bothered with it. Once the transaction was complete, he would leave and wouldn’t have any more interaction with the Pu Family.

Seeing his indifferent attitude, the three men frowned.

”This person is rather arrogant. He’s likely a Core Disciple of a Nascent Soul Major Sect.”

”However, the Demon Cultivators we three brothers have killed on the Northern Domain battlefields are in no way inferior to those slain by these so-called Core Disciples.”

”If we really encounter Demon Cultivators trying to intercept and kill us, we definitely have to show him a thing or two...”

The three secretly conversed via Sound Transmission as they walked to another part of the Flying Ship.

Not long after, the Flying Ship set off, heading toward the Southern Domain of Zhao Country.
