Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Li Chang’an had a clear understanding of Liu Xian’s strength.

After all, Xie Jiang and the others he controlled were all familiar with Liu Xian.

Recently, Liu Xian had not been in the Sect. He was at a Tier Three mine controlled by the Cyan Cloud Sect.

A war between the Three Great Sects had broken out at that mine, and many Foundation Establishment Elders from the Cyan Cloud Sect had rushed over.

’The war between the Three Great Sects hasn’t ended yet. Qiuyan probably wants to take advantage of the chaos to kill Liu Xian.’

Li Chang’an considered this seriously.

He could lend Mu Qiuyan a hand.

But he had to be cautious. Otherwise, he could easily get dragged into the conflict between the Three Great Sects.

’I can’t be hasty. I’ll check the divination before making a decision.’

Midnight was not far off.

While he waited, Li Chang’an looked through the Storage Pouch Mu Qiuyan had given him.

The pouch contained many Treasures. Their combined value was even greater than the total wealth of an ordinary Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Before long,

Midnight arrived.

A familiar golden light appeared.

[Divination has been refreshed]

[Today’s Divination: Auspicious]

[You will go to the battlefield of the Three Great Sects and rescue a heavily injured Mu Qiuyan. However, the Yin Soul Sect’s Fourth Saint Child, who is hiding in the shadows, will follow you. You will fight and kill him, obtaining a large number of Souls and discovering a Tier Three Middle Grade Talismanic Inheritance in his Storage Pouch.]

’A large number of Souls and a Tier Three Talismanic Inheritance!’

Li Chang’an’s heart stirred, and his eyes lit up.

He had only planned on lending Mu Qiuyan a hand.

He never expected that it would draw out the Fourth Saint Child of the Yin Soul Sect!

’Qiuyan really is my lucky star. Last time, she gave me a clue to the Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique, and this time she’s helping me get so many Treasures.’

Smiling, Li Chang’an immediately began to prepare.

About fifteen minutes later,

he set out that very night. Entering the Borrowed State, he pushed his Escape Technique to its limits and rushed toward the Tier Three mine where the Three Great Sects were engaged in Magical Combat.

Even before arriving, he could smell the fresh stench of blood.

The closer he got to the mine, the thicker the stench of blood became.

Li Chang’an slowed down and cast the Refining Shadow Invisible Technique. His aura and figure vanished in an instant as he stealthily approached the mine.

Soon,

the mine came into view in the distance.

He could see large numbers of people from the Three Great Sects near the mine.

“Kill!”

“Kill all these bastards from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!”

“If you dare to covet our Cyan Cloud Sect’s mine, you’ll pay the price!”

“…”

Below, the cries of battle were incessant. Over ten thousand Qi Refining Disciples from the Three Great Sects were in a blood-frenzied rage, their faces contorted with madness as they frantically cast their Magic. The ground was littered with mangled corpses and pools of blood.

High in the sky, hundreds of Flying Ships were stationed, continuously gathering power and unleashing earth-shattering beams of light that bombarded the masses of Qi Refining Disciples.

Even higher, over a hundred Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators were locked in a chaotic melee, unleashing an endless variety of Magic.

In addition, vast numbers of Puppets, mechanical constructs, and Spirit Beasts swarmed the landscape, seemingly endless as they locked in mutual slaughter.

The great battle seemed endless. Every moment, Cultivators were torn to shreds, even as more of them continuously arrived from other regions as reinforcements.

The entire night sky was illuminated by the light of Magic.

’Truly spectacular.’

Li Chang’an stopped in the distance, watching quietly.

Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators were normally treated like regional patriarchs, yet here, over a hundred of them were locked in a chaotic battle.

A scene like this was truly a rare sight.

Soon,

Li Chang’an spotted Liu Xian’s figure among the many Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the melee.

After all, Liu Xian had a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation. Although his aura was slightly chaotic, he was uninjured and single-handedly suppressing two Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

’This Liu Xian’s strength is quite impressive for a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.’

Li Chang’an had killed many Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators, so he could tell that Liu Xian had been at this stage for a very long time. His accumulated Magical Power was incredibly profound.

For someone with Mu Qiuyan’s Middle Stage Foundation Establishment strength, killing him would be extremely difficult.

A moment later,

Li Chang’an found Mu Qiuyan.

’Qiuyan’s hidden herself quite well. She’s actually disguised as an ordinary disciple of the Cyan Cloud Sect.’

At that moment, Mu Qiuyan was in the midst of the brawling Qi Refining Disciples.

Her Disguise Technique was quite exquisite, fooling the eyes of many.

But it couldn’t fool Li Chang’an’s Stone Eye.

’I’m too early. Qiuyan isn’t heavily injured yet.’

Li Chang’an mused to himself. He didn’t plan to just wait around.

He decided to act early and inflict a heavy injury on Liu Xian himself.

After all, Mu Qiuyan was his lucky star. She might bring him even more benefits in the future, and he didn’t want her burning through her lifespan just to kill Liu Xian.

After a while,

Li Chang’an stealthily drew closer. Pushing his Refining Shadow Invisible Technique to its absolute limit, he silently and without a trace approached Liu Xian, who was in the middle of Magical Combat.

Once he was close enough, he took the Ten Thousand Poison Gu from his sleeve.

’Little guy, it’s not good to just lie around all day. Time for some exercise.’

The Ten Thousand Poison Gu understood immediately, releasing several types of Tier Two toxins at Liu Xian.

The small creature’s Tier had already reached the Tier Two Late Stage, and it had remained at this stage for a long time. It wasn’t far from reaching Tier Three.

The toxins it released posed a fatal threat to Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

For now, Liu Xian remained completely unaware.

Ten-odd breaths later,

he finally noticed something was amiss.

’What’s happening? Why do I feel a little drowsy?’

’This is bad. I’ve been poisoned!’

Liu Xian was a veteran of countless Magical Combats. With his rich experience, he immediately realized what was wrong.

But he was in the middle of a melee with over a hundred other Foundation Establishment Cultivators. He had no idea who had sneak-attacked him with poison, so he could only take out various Antitoxic Pills and shove them all into his mouth.

However, the Antitoxic Pills had little effect.

Liu Xian’s heart sank.

’Could that old poison master, the Five Poison Wanderer, be here?’

He didn’t dare delay any longer. He hastily disengaged from his opponents and flew toward a Flying Ship far in the rear.

During this brief interval, the toxins had already seeped deep into his bones, causing his Magical Power to stagnate and his strength to plummet. He grew dizzy, and even his body began to sway.

It was questionable whether he could even make it back!

’Damn it! I’ve been a dominant figure my whole life. I can’t fall here!’

Liu Xian gritted his teeth and took out several Pills from his Storage Pouch that provided a temporary burst of power, preparing to swallow them.

Just then, an aura of the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment suddenly erupted from below.

Mu Qiuyan’s eyes were filled with killing intent. Burning her own life force, her full head of black hair turned snow-white in an instant. She transformed into a startling ray of blood-red light and appeared before Liu Xian in a flash.

“Old bastard, die!”

The blood-red light in her hand coalesced, forming a terrifying Blood Blade that she brought down heavily upon Liu Xian’s head.

Liu Xian’s expression changed drastically. Unable to dodge in time, he could only gather all his remaining strength and strike out at her with his palm.

CRACK!

The blood-red light flashed, and Liu Xian’s head went flying.

Meanwhile, Mu Qiuyan took the full force of his dying blow. Her face turned deathly pale; she was gravely injured.

“Come!”

With a beckoning gesture, she drew Liu Xian’s head into her Storage Pouch before turning back into a ray of blood-red light and fleeing into the distance.

Only then did the many Cyan Cloud Sect Foundation Establishment Cultivators react.

“Mu Qiuyan, how dare you assassinate a Foundation Establishment Elder of our Cyan Cloud Sect!”

“After her! Slay that demoness!”

Immediately, more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Cultivators flew out from the surrounding Flying Ships. Seething with uncontrollable rage, they charged after Mu Qiuyan.

Among them were several Late Stage Foundation Establishment experts who were skilled in Escape Techniques.

Mu Qiuyan was already heavily injured.

At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before she was caught by the Cyan Cloud Sect Cultivators.

She was well aware of her situation. Her expression darkened, and she sighed softly.

’Brother Li, it seems we won’t be able to meet again.’

No sooner had the words left her lips than a gentle voice sounded in her ear.

“Qiuyan, it’s too early to say that.”

“Brother Li?”

Surprise and delight filled Mu Qiuyan’s face, but it quickly turned to anxiety.

She knew Li Chang’an only had an Early Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation. Although he could fight above his level, he was no match for those Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Cyan Cloud Sect.

If Li Chang’an were seen as her accomplice, he would surely die as well.
