Eternal Life by Daily Divination

”Daoist Li, words can’t express my gratitude for saving my life.”

”Daoist Ou, do you have any valuable Treasures?”

”I...”

Ou Lingshan was taken aback by Li Chang’an’s directness.

She struggled to sit up and rummaged through her Storage Pouch for a moment, a look of embarrassment soon appearing on her face.

The debt of saving her life was simply too great.

She had nothing truly valuable on her to repay him.

’I can only remember this favor for now.’

Li Chang’an asked her, ”Daoist Ou, how did you get so heavily injured? Was it for revenge? Did you make a move against a Golden Core Influence in the Western Domain?”

”No, it wasn’t just for revenge.”

Ou Lingshan’s face was filled with sorrow as she let out a soft sigh.

”Back then, the Ou Clan Territory was breached, and countless Ou Clan Members died at the hands of Shi Hu and his people.”

”But not everyone was killed. Some of our clan members were abducted by Fan Wenlong, a Golden Core Master from Mandarin Duck Valley. He trafficked them, selling them to other powers in the Western Domain.”

On the path of cultivation, resources are paramount.

Cultivators themselves are a type of resource.

Mandarin Duck Valley had secretly been in the business of trafficking Cultivators for years. Their reputation throughout the Western Domain was poor, and their methods were akin to those of a Demon Sect.

Over the past few years, Ou Lingshan had often traveled in and out of the Western Domain.

She was different from Ou Tianye.

Ou Tianye was purely driven by revenge, slaughtering indiscriminately across the Western Domain.

She, however, still held onto the hope of rescuing people, wanting to save the abducted Cultivators from the Ou Family.

The person she wanted to rescue most was her younger brother, Ou Lingcan.

Not long ago, she received news that Ou Lingcan was trapped in Mandarin Duck Immortal City. She traveled a great distance to get there, but ran into several Golden Core Cultivators from the Western Domain along the way.

A great battle erupted.

She had only recently ascended to the Golden Core realm, so her foundation was shallow and far inferior to Ou Tianye’s.

Although she managed to escape with her life, she was severely injured and couldn’t return to the Southern Domain. She had no choice but to hide deep underground.

Before she even had a chance to begin Healing, she succumbed to her grievous injuries and passed out.

”Daoist Li, I truly have nothing to repay you with right now. But if you ever need anything in the future, just say the word, and I will help you even if it costs me my life.”

Ou Lingshan vowed solemnly, giving her promise.

Afterward, she began the Healing process.

For a Golden Core Master, as long as the injuries weren’t fatal, recovery was swift.

By that evening, she had mostly recovered.

Her red lips parted slightly. After a moment’s hesitation, she asked, ”Daoist Li, I intend to go to Mandarin Duck Immortal City to rescue someone. Would you be willing to help me?”

”Daoist Ou, Mandarin Duck Immortal City is guarded by three Golden Core Cultivators. This is too risky. Why not devise a plan first?”

Li Chang’an didn’t agree immediately. He was still waiting for his Divination.

Hearing this, Ou Lingshan fell silent for a moment.

She was deeply worried about her brother’s safety and was unwilling to wait any longer.

According to her information, her brother had been tortured by the Western Cultivators until he was barely recognizable as human. She feared he wouldn’t live much longer.

’Forget it. This is too dangerous. Daoist Li, like me, only has an Early Stage Golden Core Cultivation. I shouldn’t drag him into this.’

Ou Lingshan sighed to herself.

If the rescue failed and something happened to Li Chang’an, she would be wracked with guilt for the rest of her life.

She didn’t ask Li Chang’an for help again. Instead, she departed alone for Mandarin Duck Immortal City.

Li Chang’an didn’t stop her, but quietly followed.

’This is a good opportunity to use Ou Lingshan to probe the true strength of Mandarin Duck Immortal City.’

Time passed. Soon, it was Midnight.

As usual, a golden light appeared before Li Chang’an’s eyes.

[Divination has been refreshed]

[Today’s Divination: Peaceful]

[You travel to Mandarin Duck Immortal City, refine Fan Wenlong and the others into Puppets, and rescue Ou Lingshan’s brother along the way. No accidents occur.]

’A Peaceful Trigram. No joy, no sorrow. Not bad at all!’

For Li Chang’an,

as long as there were no accidents, it was an excellent Divination.

His gaze was profound as he looked into the distance, where Mandarin Duck Immortal City was visible on the horizon.

Ou Lingshan had already arrived outside the Immortal City. She didn’t try to force her way in recklessly. Instead, she used a Disguise technique, changing her appearance to that of an ordinary Western Cultivator, planning to sneak into the city to investigate.

However, just as she was about to enter the Immortal City,

a Treasure Mirror suddenly materialized above the city.

The mirror’s surface shimmered brilliantly, shooting out a beam of Spiritual Light that shone upon her, instantly revealing her true form.

’Not good, an Illusion-Breaking Treasure!’

Ou Lingshan’s heart sank. She immediately executed an Escape Technique to flee.

But her opponents were clearly prepared.

The auras of three Golden Core Cultivators erupted, and they all charged toward her.

”Haha, Daoist Ou, since you’ve come all this way, what’s the rush to leave? Why not sit down and have a cup of tea with me?”

The man in the lead was none other than Fan Wenlong!

He laughed loudly. His Escape Technique was astonishingly fast, and he caught up to Ou Lingshan in just a few breaths.

”Suppress!”

He formed a series of hand seals and unleashed a staggering Celestial Grade Magic.

BOOM!

The heavens and earth trembled, and the ground collapsed.

Ou Lingshan grunted as her Escape Technique’s speed drastically reduced, forcing her to cast Magic in response.

Soon, the other two Golden Core Cultivators caught up.

The two looked similar, apparently a pair of brothers. One wore white robes, the other black, and both had Cultivation at the Early Stage of Golden Core.

Behind them was a Tier Three Ox Demon!

Before long, Ou Lingshan was trapped in a fierce battle.

She was besieged by three Golden Core Cultivators and one Demon King, each of whom had a deeper foundation than her.

Her face was pale as she gritted her teeth and held on, constantly in peril while searching for a chance to escape.

The black-robed Golden Core Cultivator stared at her delicate face, a hint of greed in his eyes.

”Daoist Ou, you are exceptionally beautiful and your strength is impressive. Would you be willing to aid me in my cultivation and explore the Golden Core Dao together?”

Ou Lingshan remained silent, a flash of disgust crossing her pretty face.

She knew very well that more than half of the Cultivators from Mandarin Duck Valley practiced the Dual Cultivation Technique.
