Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Li Chang’an was speechless.

”As a Celestial and Earthly Spirit Beast, you shouldn’t be interested in such trivial matters.”

”You’re wrong, Li Chang’an. Even the heavens have feelings, so why can’t I be interested in these things?”

Li Chang’an couldn’t be bothered to argue and let it think on its own.

Soon, the banquet began, and the aroma of wine filled the air.

During the feast, Ye Hao said, ”Big Brother, so many years have passed, yet you haven’t changed one bit. If any of our old friends saw you now, they’d probably think they’d seen a ghost.”

”Haha, Ye Hao’s right! Big Brother is still so young.”

Chu Daniu laughed heartily, hugging a wine jar.

Xu Fugui, however, felt a wave of emotion.

”Those old friends we haven’t heard from all these years... I fear they have all passed away.”

At the mention of the old days, everyone present felt a sense of nostalgia.

Just as they were speaking, someone suddenly requested an audience at the foot of Changqing Mountain.

The visitor was a young Cultivator with a very low Cultivation, only at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer.

An ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator would have no right to see Li Chang’an.

But Li Chang’an found him somewhat familiar.

’He seems to be the descendant of an old friend.’

He raised his hand and beckoned.

Before the young Cultivator at the foot of the mountain could even react, he was shocked to find himself on the summit.

Before him stood powerhouses whose auras were so immense they made him tremble.

”Junior Liu Zhiyuan greets the Changqing Ancestor and all you Seniors!”

With a THUD, he fell to his knees, kowtowing tremblingly to the group.

At that moment, Ye Hao, Chu Daniu, and the others also found the young man familiar.

Xu Fugui asked, ”Liu Zhiyuan, what is your relation to Liu Sanzhu?”

”Replying to Senior, Liu Sanzhu is an ancestor of my Liu Family. He is my forefather.”

”So he really is Third Brother’s descendant...”

The friends exchanged surprised glances.

Liu Sanzhu had also been a member of their immortal-seeking party back in the day.

Thanks to his considerable strength and forthright personality, everyone had called him Third Brother. His status in the group was second only to Li Chang’an and Xu Yang.

Back then, they had parted ways before the gates of the Immortal Sect.

No one had heard any news of him since.

And now, his descendant had come seeking them out.

Li Chang’an asked him, ”Zhiyuan, is the Liu Family in trouble?”

”Yes, yes... Senior, I beg you to save my Liu Family!”

Facing Li Chang’an, a Golden Core Master, Liu Zhiyuan was so nervous his voice trembled.

As he spoke, he took a Longsword from his Storage Pouch and presented it to Li Chang’an.

”Senior, this is the sword my ancestor used when he was alive.”

”Mm, this is indeed Third Brother’s sword.”

Li Chang’an picked up the Longsword, a nostalgic look on his face.

This sword had been one of the ten divine weapons of that Mortal Country back then.

He had once coveted this very sword.

Of course, looking at it now, this sword couldn’t even be considered a Tier One Magical Artifact.

”Senior, before my ancestor died, he said that the descendants of the Liu Family should strive for self-improvement and never trouble the friends from his past.”

Liu Zhiyuan’s heart was filled with anxiety as he relayed Liu Sanzhu’s final words.

”But the Liu Family is on the brink of disaster. If we don’t seek help now, our clan’s annihilation is not far off. This junior had no choice but to make a decision that goes against my ancestor’s will.”

”What happened?”

Li Chang’an’s expression was gentle. He sent out a stream of Magical Power to lift him up, telling him to take his time and explain.

Liu Zhiyuan immediately explained the whole story.

The current Liu Clan Territory was on the edge of the Southern Domain. Their strongest member was at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, and they were a vassal to the local Foundation Establishment Family, the Hu Family.

Not long ago, a Treasure was suddenly unearthed in the Tier One Spiritual Ore mine owned by the Liu Family.

The Treasure’s Tier was so high that even the current Liu Family Patriarch, a man at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, could not perform Refinement on it. Therefore, he planned to trade it for Foundation Establishment Resources.

Unfortunately, the Foundation Establishment Hu Family learned of the matter.

The Hu Family had a rule: any Qi Refining Clan under their protection that found a Treasure of unidentifiable Tier had to hand it over to the Hu Family.

But the Liu Family had broken this rule, attempting to trade the Treasure privately, which enraged the Hu Family.

The Hu Family issued a decree.

They demanded that the Liu Family give them an explanation within one month.

Otherwise, they would slaughter the entire Liu Clan to make an example of them!

”Senior, the Hu Family most likely wants to make an example of my Liu Family. I have no other choice. I beg you, Senior, please save my family!”

Saying this, Liu Zhiyuan presented an exquisite Jade Box.

Inside the Jade Box was the very Treasure the Liu Family had discovered.

Li Chang’an hadn’t paid it much mind at first, but he soon detected a familiar aura.

His heart stirred, and he opened the Jade Box.

What appeared before him was a stone eyeball, gray all over.

”A Stone Eye!”

Li Chang’an was inwardly astonished.

He never would have expected to see a second Stone Eye.

This Stone Eye felt exactly the same as the one he had obtained before; it was also a Tier Three Middle Grade Treasure.

With a thought, Li Chang’an took out the first Stone Eye.

He immediately noticed that the two Stone Eyes were attracting each other, as if they wanted to merge into one.

’If they truly merge, they might become an even more powerful Illusion-Breaking Treasure, but there’s also a chance of an accident.’

For the time being, Li Chang’an kept the two Stone Eyes apart, not allowing them to merge.

He planned to check the Divination.

If the Divination showed no issues, he would then let the two Stone Eyes merge.

Afterward, he put away the two Stone Eyes and spoke to the others.

”The family of an old friend of mine is in trouble. I intend to go and help. Are you all willing to accompany me?”

”Of course, we’ll go!”

Ye Hao, Xu Fugui, and the others had no objections. They all wanted to go and pay their respects to Liu Sanzhu.

Although Mo Qingxue, Zi Yun, and the others didn’t know Liu Sanzhu, since they were already here, there was no need to leave in a hurry. They also planned to go with Li Chang’an to see what was happening.

Soon, Li Chang’an was piloting a Tier Three Flying Ship, heading for the Liu Clan Territory.

When they arrived at the Liu Clan Territory, the Liu Family was being pressured by cultivators from the Foundation Establishment Hu Family.

An arrogant Hu Family Cultivator stood inside the Liu Family’s main hall, shouting, ”The Liu Family was in the wrong first, violating the rules of my Hu Family! If you lot can’t show sufficient sincerity, then just wait for your clan to be exterminated!”

The atmosphere in the entire Liu Family hall was incredibly oppressive.

The many Liu clansmen had varying expressions; some were furious, while others were filled with terror.

The Hu Family Cultivator snorted coldly and turned as if to leave.

Just then, Li Chang’an, Ye Hao, and the others disembarked from the Flying Ship, landing in front of the Hu Family Cultivator.

”What is your name?”

Li Chang’an spoke calmly, his entire being exuding the pressure of a Golden Core Cultivator.

Feeling this pressure, the Hu Family Cultivator’s face turned deathly pale, and he immediately fell to his knees.

The impression he got from Li Chang’an, and even from Ye Hao and the others behind him, was far beyond that of the Hu Family’s Foundation Establishment Ancestor. They were undoubtedly cultivators of a much higher realm.

Golden Core!

At this thought, an icy chill ran through him, and he nearly fainted on the spot.

”Senior, this junior... this junior is called Hu Chang.”

His teeth chattered as he answered, trembling.

Li Chang’an said flatly, ”Tell your Hu Family’s Ancestor to come see me.”

With that, he casually waved his hand.

Hu Chang felt his body lighten, and in an instant, he had flown out of the Liu Clan Territory, landing right in front of the Hu Clan Territory.

His face filled with terror, he scrambled deep into the Hu Clan Territory to report to the Hu Family’s Foundation Establishment Ancestor.

”Ancestor, this is bad! The Liu Family called for reinforcements!”

”Oh?”

The Hu Family’s Ancestor, Hu Ke, frowned, a flicker of unease stirring within him.

He asked in a low voice, ”Did the Liu Family invite a Foundation Establishment Powerhouse?”

”No... no, there isn’t a single Foundation Establishment expert among them!”

Hearing this, Hu Ke immediately relaxed, breathing a sigh of relief.

”If there aren’t any Foundation Establishment experts, then what are you panicking about?”
