Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

The mist drifted over the sails.

The two people at the bow of the ship looked at Chen Qing and the others who were writing on the snow in the distance. Li Xuetang was wearing a snow-white fur coat and a gray windbreaker.

Li Xuetang reached out and wrote on the snow on the railing.

"What are you doing here?"

As the Divine Son of the Immortal Court, he didn't need to travel the world to find opportunities to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Even if he did, the Immortal Court had many ways to do it, such as the Lanruotuo Realm.

Li Chonghuan puffed out his chest and raised his hand to write a sentence on the white snow on the other side.

"I'm waiting for someone who will definitely come to challenge me."

Li Xuetang looked at this sentence and was slightly surprised. He used the word 'challenge', not 'assassinate'?

The Divine Son of the Immortal Court appeared once every 800 years. The Young Celestial Master of the Celestial Master Mansion was now 300 years old. The successors of various sects rarely appeared at the same time.

In other words, Li Chonghuan was now the best in the Qi Refinement Realm.

But he was waiting for someone to challenge him, and he chose the Immortal Island that only cultivators of the Qi Refinement Realm could enter.

Wasn't it obvious that he wanted to give his opponent a chance to challenge him?

Had the successor of another sect also appeared?

"Will he come?"

Li Chonghuan's eyes were full of confidence. "He will. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he must come."

"He has a reason why he must come."

But at this moment, he frowned slightly with a trace of sadness. "I'm just thinking about whether I'll win or lose."

In his words, winning or losing seemed to be very simple. He could win or lose if he wanted to win.

And winning or losing would trigger a series of events.

He reached into his sleeve and held a talisman tightly.

The Yin-Yang Sect started this trap, but they didn't know what they had started.

Since the trap had started, it was not up to them to decide.

Li Xuetang, who was listening at the side, felt her whole body tremble.

Because she didn't know anything. She just followed the arrangement of the Celestial Master Mansion and came to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Perhaps this was the difference between a Daoist Girl and a Divine Son.

"Thank you for your advice, Divine Son."

Li Xuetang whispered.

On the other side, Chen Qing and Nie Fei were grilling fish. "I have to say, the grilled fish from a few days ago tastes the best."

"The water here is too warm. The fish isn't tasty enough."

Xuan Ping placed the new grilled fish in Chen Qing's hands. Looking at the endless fog around them, for some reason, she felt at ease with Chen Qing by her side.

On the afternoon of the fourth day of the eighth lunar month, everyone could vaguely see a huge shadow hidden in the fog ahead.

The closer they got, the clearer the black figure became. It was an extremely large mountain.

To be more precise, it was not a single mountain. Instead, it was an extremely huge mountain range formed by the convergence of numerous mountain ranges.

One could vaguely see clouds and mist above the mountain peak. However, as the clouds and mist shrouded everything, one could not see clearly.

The large ship reached the shore. Just as the five of them stepped off the shore, they saw half a body slowly sinking into the soil.

Nie Fei came to the side of a person, lifted the clothes of the person who was slowly sinking into the soil, and took out a jade pendant. "I recognize this person. He's the Dao Disciple of the Yin Yang Sect. His name is Xu Sanbian, and he's usually very slippery. How did he die so easily this time?"

Just as the four of them were wondering how the Dao Disciple of the Yin Yang Sect had died, they saw a young man in red walking towards them from afar.

When the young man got closer, they realized that he was not wearing red clothes at all. His clothes were dyed with blood.

With every step he took, he left behind a bloody footprint.

The fresh blood condensed his hair into strands that looked like small braids.

Chen Qing looked into the young man's eyes. He felt like he was looking at a wolf.

His eyes were exceptionally clear, and they were filled with an aggressive desire to hunt and kill.

The young man glanced at them, then turned around and walked into the fog. No one knew where he went.

Nie Fei pressed down on his slightly swaying legs. "Motherf * cker, I was scared to death. I just came to the Immortal Island and I already met such a monster!"

Looking at Xu Sanbian's corpse on the ground, he only had one foot left.

Blood and the corpse were slowly sinking into the ground.

Chen Qing picked up a stone and threw it beside the corpse. However, it did not sink into the ground like the corpse.

Was this the strange person that Yao Feng said could control the power of heaven and earth?

Had the strange person escaped the Yin Yang Sect's control?

They sensed that the young man had gone far away, so they walked toward the Immortal Island. However, before they could take ten steps, they heard a soft sound behind them.

Chen Qing turned around and saw a young man covered in blood crawling out of Xu Sanbian's corpse. The fresh blood condensed on his body to form a bloody robe.

He crawled to his feet. He did not even look at Chen Qing and the others. Under their gazes, he walked into the nearby fog, leaving behind bloody footprints.

All that was left on the ground was a piece of skin covered in blood.

Nie Fei patted the dust off his butt and stood up with a serious expression on his face. "That's all there is to it. It's not scary at all. This brother has seen many scarier things in the past.

"It was really a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Ears, legs, and organs were all over the place.

"Intestines and livers were stewed in a pot and hung on iron hooks. It was like a forest of meat."

Chen Qing asked, "Are you talking about the Evil Sect or the Yao Clan?"

Nie Fei shook his head. "No, it was a pig slaughterhouse."

Seeing that Nie Fei was still in the mood to joke around, Chen Qing's heart eased a little.

Even he felt a little hungry.

His understanding of this world was still too little.

Chen Qing took a step back and walked behind Xuan Ping. "Now that we have seen the Immortal Island, why don't we go back?"

Xuan Ping said, "That variant human did not attack us. His target is not us. He should be targeting the Yin Yang Sect that imprisoned him for a long time."

Li Chonghuan had already strode into the mist with Li Xuetang.

Nie Fei said, "They have already left. What do we do?"

Xuan Ping thought for a moment and walked to the remaining human skin. She tore off a piece and looked at it seriously. "There is no Gu worm's Great Dao aura. He should be relying on his control of this world."

"He is not as strong as we thought. Otherwise, he would not have made it so bloody."

"It's more of a deterrent, telling us not to interfere with his revenge."

She stood up. "Let's go. We have to do something since we're on the Immortal Island."

"It doesn't make sense that Li Chonghuan and Li Xuetang aren't afraid. Why should we be?"

Chen Qing had no choice but to follow. He was a weak and helpless ninth layer Qi Refinement cultivator. Why did he come to such a dangerous place?

Wouldn't it be better to cultivate at home?

He would definitely not join in the fun next time.

The three of them were about to leave when they saw a small boat docking behind them. A woman wearing the Yin-Yang Sect's double-fish robe walked down from it.

Chen Qing turned around and suddenly thought of something. He gathered his courage and stepped forward. "Fellow Daoist, are you from the Yin-Yang Sect?"

The woman from the Yin-Yang Sect saw the bronze mask on Chen Qing's face and was slightly vigilant. "Extreme Light Sect?"

Chen Qing stepped forward with a smile. "Yes, we're from the Extreme Light Sect. Now that we're on the Immortal Island, we don't know how to find treasures."

He approached as he spoke. "I heard that you released this strange person, so I want to find out some information."

As he spoke, he reached into his pocket. The woman immediately became vigilant and placed her hand on the hilt of her sword.

Chen Qing took out a spiritual pearl. "If you can tell us a thing or two, we'll definitely show our gratitude."

"This is a spiritual bead. Please accept it as a token of my respect for you."

He pretended to hand over the spiritual pearl, but the woman did not let down her guard at all. At this moment, she heard a familiar voice. "You're here too?"

The woman looked at the person and found that it was the Daoist of the Yin-Yang Sect, Xu Sanbian.

Seeing her fellow sect member, she immediately relaxed. Just as her hand left the hilt of her sword, doubt arose in her heart. "That's not right. Since Xu Sanbian is here, why is he asking me?"

Just as she was hesitating, she saw a flash of sword light in front of her. She leaned to the side to avoid being hit, but she was stabbed in the waist and blood flowed out.

Just as she was about to move, she felt a gust of wind brushing past her. A green feather arrow sank into her head, killing her completely.

Until her death, her expression was frozen at the last moment, full of doubt, confusion, and a trace of anger.

Chen Qing pulled out the Black Bird Arrow, washed it in the sea, and threw it back to Xuan Ping.

He dragged the woman's body to the flat ground on the Immortal island. He and Nie Fei, who had turned into Xu Sanbian.

Nie Fei asked, "Why did you attack the Yin-Yang Sect?"

Xuan Ping also came nearby and squatted at the side to watch. After watching for a full 20 breaths, the woman's corpse showed no signs of sinking into the ground.

Chen Qing immediately picked up the Geng Jin Sword that was still stained with blood and dug a large hole in the ground. He threw the woman into the hole and then kicked the soil to bury her.

Then, he waited quietly at the side.

Xuan Ping immediately understood what Chen Qing meant. She helped him bury the woman completely and then waited at the side.

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, there was finally a change in the mound. A youth covered in blood crawled out from it.

This time, the young man was slightly at a loss when he came out. When he picked up the Yin Yang Sect woman's skin and the Yin Yang Sect's clothes, he looked around again and seemed to have confirmed something.

He opened his mouth and said intermittently, "Don't move around during the day. Leave at night."

After he finished speaking, he walked in a completely different direction from the previous two youths.

Only then did Chen Qing stand up and say, "Now, I can confirm that he really has no interest in us."

Since they couldn't afford to offend the youth's original body, they might as well test the rules here and find a less powerful person to test the waters.

This way, even if there was danger, it would be within their range of ability to deal with it.

They killed a Yin Yang Sect member, so the youth told them some secrets about the Immortal Island.

As for killing a complete stranger, Chen Qing didn't feel much of a burden in his heart.

To be able to force the youth into such a state, one could imagine how much torture the youth had suffered in the Yin Yang Sect.

Chen Qing had always treated those who didn't treat otherworlders well as enemies.

The three of them looked at the sky. It was still noon. Recalling the youth's words, Chen Qing said, "Why don't we find a place to rest for a while?"

Nie Fei turned into the woman's appearance. "Since we can't move during the day, why don't we wait here for the Yin Yang Sect members and bury a few more to get more information?"

"What if that lord is happy and tells us the location of the treasure? Wouldn't that be even better?"

The three of them found a reef and sat down, quietly waiting for the sky to turn dark. They planned to wait until it was dark before taking action. They also wanted to see if they could kill another Yin Yang Sect member and obtain some new information.

Unfortunately, luck didn't favor them. They didn't encounter another Yin Yang Sect member until nightfall.

During the day, Chen Qing had been listening to the sound of the wind. There were many strange sights on this strange Immortal Island.

There were trees walking on the ground, strange beasts galloping, a youth in blood-red clothes hunting everywhere, and a cave that devoured people without spitting out their bones.

These were only a part of it. The wind didn't bring much information.

When night fell, even the wind seemed to have stopped. Chen Qing listened to the last of the wind and suddenly realized that the walking tree he saw during the day had stopped and fallen into a deep sleep.

Only then did Chen Qing say, "Let's go. The danger I sensed has quieted down."

The three of them walked towards the depths of the Immortal Island together. It was strange. The fog didn't disperse during the day, but when night fell, the fog disappeared.

Relying on the hazy moonlight, they could barely see the surroundings.

After walking for a while, Chen Qing sensed a 100-year-old Sword Heart Grass in front of him. Chen Qing walked nearby and glanced over. There was a sword ghost sleeping nearby.

He immediately turned into mist and reached out to pluck the Sword Heart Grass. He turned into mist again and returned to Nie Fei and Xuan Ping's side.

The sword ghost didn't wake up and continued to sleep.

"At night here, strange beasts and monsters seem to be sleeping very soundly."

Nie Fei's interest in treasure hunting was immediately piqued. "I've only taken a few steps and I've already obtained a Sword Heart Grass that is a hundred years old. Although the age of this thing doesn't mean much, it's still considered rare."

"Let's continue to search for treasures."

Xuan Ping also knew that Chen Qing and Nie Fei had a close relationship. She said, "Don't get separated. Only the three of us can trust each other."

Nie Fei said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I know what's important."

Feeling the breeze by his ear, Chen Qing said, "I think I heard a shabby sword hut in front."

Nie Fei didn't ask why he heard about the shabby sword hut. He only said, "Is there any danger?"

Chen Qing said, "There are a few sword ghosts sleeping nearby, but it shouldn't be a big problem."

Nie Fei was instantly interested. "Let's go and take a look. Even if there aren't any spirit sword insects, there should be sword manuals and sword insects!"

The three of them immediately walked softly and followed Chen Qing toward the unknown sword hut. After walking through the clusters of trees, Nie Fei suddenly tripped.

He got up and picked up the thing that tripped him. "Broken sword?"

"After so many years, you can still recognize that it's a broken sword. It seems that there might be a famous sword on this island!"

"And the owner of this island should have an extremely powerful sword forging technique."

Chen Qing said, "It's a pity that we didn't meet more people from the Yin Yang Sect. Otherwise, we could know more."
