Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

People who are about to die need to prolong their lives, and of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is for the purpose of cultivating some kind of demonic art.

Life essence carries a strong personal imprint. Heavenly lifespan... the starting line set by heaven, everyone must abide by it, and how far one can run depends entirely on personal destiny.

To take away someone else's lifespan is like running a race.

This kind of competition is about who is slowest and who wins. The farther the finish line, the better. You transfer other people's tracks to your own track to extend the total distance.

Others reach the finish line as soon as they start, and die of old age.

You may live longer by taking someone else's lifespan, but you also inherit all the potholes, stones, and obstacles on their path.

When the quantity is large, each step is like walking on knives and seas of fire, capable of driving a person to the brink of madness.

Purification and reduction became a solution.

But ultimately it's going against the will of Heaven. If you can steal ten years out of a hundred years of lifespan, that's already pretty good. But demonic arts can reduce the proportion and steal twenty or thirty years.

Gu Qing's situation is different. His item was transformed from a Dao Point and was ownerless, and it also had a limit. The passage of time on his body would not be reversed.

For example, if he lives for 150 years, the maximum lifespan he can replenish will be permanently reduced by 150 years, which cannot be made up for in the past.

The lifespan of a sixth-rank cultivator is 4000 to 6000 years.

Each breakthrough in a realm grants a slight improvement, and theoretically, a sixth-rank peak-level individual can live for six thousand years.

"How long has the current leader of the Holy Flame Cult been in office?"

Xiao Bai thought for a moment and then answered.

"It's been over a thousand years. This current leader only reached the upper level of the sixth rank before taking office, which is different from the transitions of the past."

"Did anything happen during the handover with the previous leader?"

"Have not heard……"

"The old cult leader is over six thousand years old, and should have been dead for over a hundred years."

The margin of error is too low, this is the one!
Gu Qing's heart skipped a beat; she had already made up her mind.

In the Cangwu cultivation world, there are almost no cultivators who live to a ripe old age and die peacefully in their sleep. During cultivation, they will always lose some of their lifespan for various reasons, which accumulates to a considerable amount.

Theory is just theory; even with various longevity elixirs, one can only live to around six thousand years old.

The only one who truly needs the life essence is the old cult leader.

"The Void Battlefield is about to open, and the Holy Fire Sect has one spot. Perhaps he wants to make one last attempt before he dies. Also, there is news of a new world from Kunlun Immortal Mountain."

"It's worth the risk."

Doubts arise quickly, and decisions are made just as quickly.

In the cultivation world, if you feel it's you, then there's no escaping it. Regardless of whether it is true or not, it has to be you. Evidence is not important; the judge is the one who acts from the heart.

Gu Qing didn't think he was wrong. Even if he was wrong, it could still become a fact. It was a familiar and easy way to cover up a crime, and it sounded very reasonable, so it was probably true.

The Cangwu Realm may seem alright, but in reality, it still follows the same old rules.

Strength is respected.

Dividing it into nine grades and thirty-six realms is too much; it can be summarized in just three realms and six words.

Seniors, fellow practitioners, and ants.

"genius!"

He wrote down his speculations, changed them to a tone of certainty and firsthand observation, and used Xiaobai's Sacred Flame Elder's Token as evidence to prove the authenticity of the evidence.

"Next, take a picture with the photo stone as evidence and give it to Fairy Huanyin. Yunmeng Immortal Mountain will handle it."

"No need to fight?"

Xiao Bai was surprised for a moment, not understanding why someone could be convicted just for writing an article full of fabrications and speculation?

"We should fight, but there's no need to fight Qingmojun and the Holy Flame Cult Master. We can just blame them."

"Do you know where the great cultivator over at the Talisman Tower is?"

"know."

"lead the way."

........................

Guhuoniao had thoroughly investigated Qingmojun's appearance and methods. After Xiaobai brought him to the vicinity of the destination, he did not choose the appearance of Qingmojun.

On the contrary, another guy who was easier to imitate used his Heavenly Shuttle Robe to transform Gu Qing into the appearance of Devouring Evil Master, and a wicked smile appeared on his lips.

"Stay outside and use this photo stone to record your journey."

noob:"……"

There is clearly a secret relationship between the Talisman Tower and the Holy Fire Cult that is unknown to outsiders, and this relationship is hostile.

The fact that Qingmojun targeted certain individuals and that the Talisman Tower dispatched powerful cultivators to investigate and attempt to seize access to the Void Battlefield illustrates this point.

Devouring Evil Venerable and Azure Demon Lord are both notorious figures in the outer seas, and the two have a close relationship.

Gu Qing was adept at imitating the Devouring Dao techniques.

This connection alone is enough for a powerful figure like Fairy Huanyin to exercise her "mental judgment" ability.

Wait until the photo stone on Xiaobai's side is ready.

Gu Qing suddenly appeared in mid-air, made a hand seal and gently pointed, and a huge, black Devouring Handprint suddenly condensed, with a palm print nearly a hundred feet long descending from the sky.

Everything in its path was completely swallowed up, without a trace of breath or sound escaping.

Sneak attack!

There was a loud bang.

The earth cracked, and the buildings within the area marked by the handprint seemed to have been erased, disappearing without a trace.

A golden, shimmering talisman tower stopped the descending handprint.

The aura of the Devouring Dao was so strong that the other party immediately guessed who the visitor was; there was only one such person in the Western Sea.

"The Devouring Evil Master?!"

After the Grand Master of the Talisman Tower withstood the Devouring Handprint, he immediately disengaged from the attack range and angrily rebuked.

"I knew it was you and Qingmojun who were helping that old bastard from the Holy Fire Cult prolong his life."

"What benefits did they give you to target the people of my Rune Tower like this!"

"Hehehehe, you're very clever."

Gu Qing strolled out of the void, revealing her face, and said arrogantly and disdainfully.

"Kneel down and be my dog."

"Too deceiving."

The Grand Master of the Talisman Tower was undoubtedly furious. Just from the name, you can tell that the Talisman Tower mainly cultivates the way of talismans and comprehends the principles of the Great Dao through talisman techniques. It is divided into the "Prayer to Heaven School," which opens altars and draws talismans, and the "Talisman School," which creates talismans from the void.

One reason is that they have powerful connections; they need to be ordained and communicate with ascended ancestors to draw powerful talismans. Their skill level is very high, and there are no weaklings among them.

One type relies on their own understanding of nature, imitating the power of heaven and earth, to create various talismans. They can create talismans from thin air with a thought. Those who follow this path are either very weak or extremely strong.

It has four minor branches: techniques, methods, formations, and sealing, as well as the art of talismans.

This person was from the [Dharma Talisman Sect]. In the blink of an eye, four void talismans appeared around Gu Qing, forming a talisman array that suddenly contracted.

"The Four Directions Demon-Subduing Treasure Talisman Formation, by imperial decree."

"punish!"

Thunder roared, and the crimson Demon-Slaying Divine Lightning suddenly exploded and struck Gu Qing. However, along with the Devouring Dharma Wheel, the Dharma Wheel, like a black hole, completely swallowed the Demon-Slaying Divine Lightning.

As the hand gestures changed, the Falun turned in a different direction.

The torrent of spiritual energy formed by the devouring power suddenly crashed down. This Grand Master of the Talisman Tower, who was only at the lower sixth rank, coughed up a mouthful of blood in the face of the doubled feedback power.

Gu Qing waved his sleeve again, and an invisible force—the Universe Within the Sleeve—pressed down, rendering the creature unable to move.

"Fellow Daoist, is it safe to kneel now?"

"You... the Talisman Tower will not let you off, and the Cloud Dream Immortal Sect will also pursue the matter." (End of Chapter)
