Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 140 Unexpected Gains

Elder Yin Guang, Qi Ziheng, suddenly felt a gaze penetrating through the walls and looking at him.

"Who!?"

Feeling this gaze, he felt a bit uneasy.

He quickly flew out of the hall to investigate.

There was no one outside the hall, but following the direction of that gaze, he saw Elder Zhu An in the small attic on Yuhua Mountain.

At this moment, he was leaning against the window, gently stroking the ginkgo tree branches and leaves outside the window.

The corners of his mouth slightly lifted, revealing a faint smile.

It seemed that he was somewhat proud because he saw through his tricks.

Qi Ziheng was secretly surprised. How did he cultivate the Divine Ability of seeing through walls?

I've never heard of him having this move before...

Zhu An turned his head and saw Qi Ziheng from a distance, then smiled and greeted him.

Qi Ziheng's heart skipped a beat, and after thinking for a moment, he flew towards the attic.

Chu Ming changed his perspective and secretly observed, wondering if these two would erupt into conflict.

He saw Qi Ziheng flying outside the window and arching his hand, saying, "Junior Brother Zhu, your cultivation has improved a lot recently!"

Zhu An smiled, "Hehe, it's alright."

"Compared to Senior Brother Qi, I'm still far behind."

Qi Ziheng frowned secretly. This guy should be sarcastically referring to how he obtained the demonic cultivation inheritance.

He thought for a moment, walked into the attic, sat opposite Zhu An, and enveloped the two of them with soundproofing techniques.

Zhu An was a little surprised and asked with a smile, "Senior Brother Qi, what are you doing?"

Qi Ziheng said lightly, "Junior Brother Zhu, your methods are indeed impressive."

"But I also know some of your secrets."

"My junior sister was probably killed by you, right?"

Zhu An's smile froze, "Senior Brother Qi, what do you mean by that?"

"Are you saying that Elder Jin Guang was killed by us? Nonsense!"

Qi Ziheng sneered, "Stop pretending. I have evidence."

"If this matter gets out, it won't be good for the four of you."

"I think since we both have something on each other, why not keep each other's secrets?"

"Don't worry, I won't make a move against you in the future. You can continue to be the Elder of the Agricultural Hall."

After hearing this, Zhu An was a bit confused, "What do you mean by having something on each other? I don't have anything on you."

"When you just said you would make a move against me in the future, what did you mean?"

"As far as I know, you and your junior sister don't have a good relationship, right?"

"If it weren't for us, you wouldn't be able to become the Peak Master of Piaomiao Peak."

"We helped you get rid of her, which can be considered as helping you. Don't repay kindness with enmity."

Seeing his reaction, Qi Ziheng quickly asked, "Wasn't it you who was spying on me just now?"

Zhu An replied angrily, "When did I spy on you? Weren't you the one staring at me from the beginning?"

Wasn't it him? Qi Ziheng pondered for a moment, then suddenly slapped Zhu An's shoulder with his palm.

A black aura turned into chains and spread out from his palm, gradually sealing Zhu An.

Zhu An didn't expect him to suddenly attack, let alone that the opponent's realm was much stronger than his. He was completely no match for such a close-range surprise attack.

What surprised him even more was that the spell Qi Ziheng used turned out to be a demonic cultivation technique.

"You... What are you..."

Qi Ziheng said coldly, "Regardless of whether it was you or not, I won't let you leave until I capture you today."

He isolated the surrounding aura again and took out a black, sinister-looking tumor, stuffing it into Zhu An's mouth.

Zhu An felt a surge of demonic energy spreading within him, enveloping his Gold Core in his dantian, and then merging with it.

The wood elemental energy within his Gold Core had completely transformed into a kind of wood-based demonic energy.

The power of this energy shocked him.

At the same time, he sensed a faint connection between something underground and his divine soul, unable to break free from it.

Qi Ziheng said coldly, "After consuming this thing, don't even think about resolving it."

"The owner of this demonic energy is much stronger than Tai Xu Ancestor. Just accept that we are now of the same kind."

Zhu An asked, "What exactly are you planning to do?"

Qi Ziheng told him to conceal the demonic energy and then explained the situation.

After listening, Zhu An's face filled with anger, and he smashed the teacup in his hand.

"I don't have the Divine Ability to see through walls and spy on you!"

"Hey! You're just looking for trouble. Now I'm also implicated because of you."

Qi Ziheng said indifferently, "You can only blame your bad luck."

"Did you see anyone nearby just now?"

Zhu An replied angrily, "How could there be anyone?"

"If you were discovered, the Sect Master would have sent someone to capture you by now."

Qi Ziheng lowered his head in thought. Was it just an illusion?

In theory, no one in the sect should possess the Divine Ability to see through walls.

If there were, they would definitely be elders. Once they discovered that they had turned into demonic cultivators, they would have sent people to capture them long ago.

It had been a while now, and nothing had happened, so it was likely that no one knew.

Perhaps he was being overly suspicious.

"In that case, I can only apologize to Junior Brother Zhu. I had no other choice."

"But since we have all become demonic cultivators, there's no need to say anything more."

"Don't worry, with you here, I have a greater chance of completing the old demon's task."

"Next, we'll work together to drag a few more people down with us."

Zhu An said with a bitter face, "I just casually came out to meet an old acquaintance, why did I have to run into you?"

After being angry for a while, he sighed, "Well, since that old demon is so powerful, I can only go along with it."

"It saves me from having to fight you guys later."

"But I think we should wait until the remaining two Nascent Soul Ancestors enter the trial, which will be in the next year or two."

Qi Ziheng nodded, "I naturally have this plan, so there's no rush."

...

Chu Ming saw this and secretly smiled bitterly. This Elder of the Farm Hall is really useless.

He was subdued with just one move and didn't even make a sound.

Instead, he became a follower of Elder Yin Guang, and the two of them planned to drag others down with them.

But in doing so, the risk of exposure would also increase, and they might attract the attention of other high-level members.

And it seemed that they wouldn't take any action until the Nascent Soul Ancestors entered the trial.

He could still observe for a while and figure out a way to deal with them once they made their next move.

For now, he could continue to cultivate peacefully in the Cave Mansion.

What he didn't expect was that this eavesdropping would yield unexpected gains.

Based on their conversation just now, it was clear that Elder Jin Guang was killed by the other four Five Elements Elders working together.

He knew that Senior Sister regarded Elder Jin Guang as a mother figure, so he naturally had to avenge her for this.

But he couldn't tell her about it now to avoid trouble.

After monitoring the two for a while, he didn't gain any more significant information.

Chu Ming then began to cultivate the Invigorating Body Technique.
