Eternal Life by Daily Divination

”He said it wouldn’t be a delay; a round trip only takes a day, so missing one person wouldn’t matter.”

Hearing this, Li Chang’an immediately made some arrangements, adding a sense of solemnity to the scene so it was no longer as casual as before.

Meanwhile.

Yuan Country, Black Tortoise Sect.

In front of a towering turtle-shaped mountain.

A Golden Core Elder sent out the jade scroll in his hand and announced loudly, ”Turtle Ancestor, this is the latest news regarding the Battle of Righteous and Evil. Please take a look.”

A moment later.

The old turtle’s voice echoed through the mountain, accompanied by a spread of Water Element Demonic Power.

”Alright, I know. You may step down.”

”Yes!”

Hearing his voice, this Golden Core Elder immediately felt much more at ease.

No matter how ferocious the Demonic Dao was, as long as this ancestor who had lived for over five thousand years was still around, the Black Tortoise Sect would not fall.

Little did he know, the one replying to him was not the old turtle at all, but that Six-winged Water Snake!

He was also a Water Element Demon Beast possessing Tier Four strength. He could disguise himself as the old turtle and easily fool these Golden Core Cultivators.

Regarding the news of the Battle of Righteous and Evil sent into the mountain by the Golden Core Elder, he didn’t even look at it before directly shattering it.

”Our Demonic Dao will definitely win this battle!”

”Indeed, we will surely win this battle!”

By his side, a young man nodded slightly.

This person had reddish pupils, a flame mark between his eyebrows, and wore a fiery red robe. Nascent Soul Magical Power surged around him.

It was none other than the Holy Fire True Monarch!

At this moment, the two of them were working together to deal with the old turtle, trying to pry open his turtle shell.

”Old turtle, give up. Why continue to struggle?”

Holy Fire True Monarch opened his mouth and spat out a breath of crimson flames.

The raging fire soared, illuminating the sky and burning everything around the old turtle completely red.

The Six-winged Water Snake continuously unleashed Water Element Demonic Techniques.

”Old turtle, the Righteous Dao has no chance of winning this battle. Why do you stubbornly refuse to see reason? Our Demon Sect is the true Righteous Dao! Join my Demon Sect, and I can spare your life.”

However, no matter what they said, the old turtle remained completely unresponsive.

He hid inside his turtle shell, letting water and fire clash against him. Even when bombarded by the array, he remained entirely unmoving.

”Why is this old thing’s turtle shell so hard? Even a Tier Four Middle Grade Array can’t break it!”

”Keep attacking! This old thing has lived for over five thousand years and has profound accumulation. It’s normal that we can’t break it for now. I don’t believe he can hold on forever!”

The two continuously deployed various methods to suppress and seal the old turtle.

Additionally, they still maintained the operations of the Black Tortoise Sect.

In the eyes of the outside world, the Black Tortoise Sect remained exactly as before. No major events had occurred, and it was still one of the eight major Righteous Nascent Soul Influences!

At the critical moment of the Battle of Righteous and Evil, if the Black Tortoise Sect suddenly rebelled, it would definitely deal a fatal blow to the Righteous Dao.

”The rest of the Holy Sons and Saintesses within the sect are all under my control. Only Lin Xuanyan and his sister have yet to return.”

”Those two have a very good relationship with the old turtle. I’m afraid they have long noticed something amiss.”

After some discussion, the Holy Fire True Monarch left temporarily.

He entered the sect’s main hall, summoned all the Golden Core Cultivators, and announced in front of everyone:

”Lin Xuanyan and his sister are undercover agents for the Demonic Dao and have betrayed our Black Tortoise Sect!”

”What?”

Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with incomprehension.

With the talent of those two siblings, as long as they cultivated properly, they would definitely obtain the sect’s Nascent Soul Formation resources. Why would they betray the sect?

This matter simply didn’t make sense.

Unfortunately, the one announcing this was the Holy Fire True Monarch.

Ever since something happened to the Black Tortoise True Monarch, the Holy Fire True Monarch had become the only Human Race Nascent Soul in the Black Tortoise Sect, holding almost absolute power within the sect.

None of the people present dared to question him.

Holy Fire True Monarch’s expression was cold as his eyes swept over everyone.

”You all don’t need to panic. I have already captured Lin Xuanyan’s accomplices and ordered people to interrogate them. We will soon get the names of the other spies.

”However, there has been no news of Lin Xuanyan. Tell me, everyone, where could he be hiding?”

Faced with this question, everyone was momentarily at a loss for words.

Simply because Lin Xuanyan had always stayed within the sect and had no other favorite places to go.

After quite a while, a Golden Core Elder mentioned, ”Lin Xuanyan once said that among cultivators of his generation, only Li Chang’an truly understood him.”

”Li Chang’an? Which Li Chang’an?”

”The Mountain Lord of Changqing Mountain in the Southern Domain of Zhao Country, Loose Cultivator Li Chang’an.”

”Alright, I understand.”

Holy Fire True Monarch waved his hand, tossing out a treasure as a reward.

A moment later, the meeting concluded.

Holy Fire True Monarch returned to the back mountain and instructed the Six-winged Water Snake.

”I need to leave for a bit. Do not leave this place. I suspect this old turtle might have hidden some tricks.”

Saying this, he took out a puppet and let it control the array in his stead.

The tier of this puppet reached Tier Four Low Grade, enough to rival an ordinary Early Stage of Nascent Soul Cultivator.

The Six-winged Water Snake asked him, ”Where are you going?”

”The Southern Domain of Zhao Country!”
