Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

"Are you sure the person the Holy Maiden is looking for is also in Zhengyang City?"

"I am certain. The spy we planted next to the female Nascent Soul of the Endless Pleasure Sect witnessed it with their own eyes."

"That person was ambushed by the Nascent Soul True Lord of the Endless Pleasure Sect and accidentally fell from the flying boat... After several months, they finally left the Fulong Ridge."

"It was only recently that they arrived in Zhengyang City with a group of ordinary merchants."

Upon hearing this, the old man in the black robe couldn't help but furrow his brows. He paused for a moment before saying,

"Let's enter the city first."

"In this blood sacrifice, the Holy Maiden did not harm us. We must complete this mission no matter what. If we fail again... we will be held responsible even if we die a thousand deaths!"

"Yes!"

---

"Brother Li, I am ready."

In the conference hall, Ji Boying, who had been resting for several hours, had fully recovered to his peak state.

Li Pu nodded slightly and said,

"Very well... let's begin then!"

"Release all of your sword intent first, without holding back. Whatever I ask you to do later, you must do without any hesitation."

"Understood!"

Ji Boying nodded, took a deep breath, and in an instant, a majestic sword aura poured out, filling the entire conference hall.

Fortunately, the Wan Dao Commercial Building's attic was made of special materials, and even a Nascent Soul expert couldn't shake it in the slightest.

With a slight movement of his mind, Ji Boying's overwhelming killing intent slowly spread.

"What pure sword intent!"

Li Pu, who was sitting opposite him, had a slight change in his expression and couldn't help but praise.

To possess such pure sword intent at the beginning of enlightenment, even he couldn't achieve that.

Cultivators seek the path of longevity, transcending the mundane world, but they are still far from the realm of the legendary Supreme Forgetfulness, where they are indifferent to everything. They are still influenced by worldly desires and emotions.

And these emotions are the biggest obstacles in the process of sword cultivation.

Of course, there are sword cultivators who choose to accept them calmly and create their own sword paths.

Like the Carefree Sword, the Sword of Emotion, the Guardian Sword...

Such sword paths are the result of being unable to escape worldly desires and emotions.

But these sword cultivators are destined to not go far. To comprehend their own sword intent is already their limit.

The further realm is as difficult as reaching the heavens. Throughout history, there have been only a few who have not abandoned their emotions and reached this realm.

As for the Sword Domain, the Laws... there is no need to think about it. Sword cultivation that is not pure is destined to have no connection with them.

Therefore, among sword cultivators, to see how far someone can go in the future, one only needs to look at their sword intent. The purer the sword intent, the further they will go on the path of the Great Dao.

If one can possess a pure sword heart, they will definitely become a Sword Dao God Lord.

"Brother Li, I am about to begin!"

At this moment, Ji Boying had already condensed all of his sword intent, and the chilling killing intent contained within it even made the surrounding air emit a faint sobbing sound.

Li Pu nodded and said,

"Begin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Boying pointed at Li Pu's heart.

In an instant, the surging killing intent, like a tide, flowed through Li Pu's meridians, instantly permeating his entire body.

Li Pu groaned, a mouthful of blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and his face turned pale.

However, he quickly adjusted his state and began to command Ji Boying to suppress the scattered sword energy within his body with his sword intent.

At the same time.

Inside the main city of Zhengyang, in a restaurant not far from the Wan Dao Commercial Building.

A person in black looked towards the direction of the commercial building and whispered,

"If nothing unexpected happens, the target should be in the commercial building."

"It's not 'should be,' it's 'definitely.'"

The old man snorted coldly.

"He still carries the aura left by the old man. Within a hundred miles, he cannot escape the old man's detection!"

"He is currently in the commercial building!"

"What should we do now? Wait for him to come to us, or..."

"Wait outside."

The old man said indifferently,

"Although this is just a branch, it is not a place we can forcefully attack."

"We will strike when he leaves Zhengyang City! He is injured now, so as long as we set up an ambush in advance, capturing him will be easy!"

"Yes!"

---

"Buzz!"

As a sharp and piercing sword sound suddenly resounded, Li Pu abruptly opened his eyes the next moment.

In his eyes, a dazzling sword light bloomed, accompanied by a completely different and pure sword intent that quietly permeated the air.

This sword intent was different from Ji Boying's killing intent, but in terms of intensity and purity, it surpassed Ji Boying!

There was even a naturally inherent pressure contained within it, which even Ji Boying couldn't help but feel a few more points of fear.

"Step back!"

At this moment, Li Pu shouted loudly and, without time to explain, he could only push Ji Boying away with a palm.

In that instant, a torrential surge of sword energy and sword qi poured out, instantly shredding everything within a three-foot radius into pieces.

Even the floor of the room was marked with shocking sword scars.

It should be noted that this was a material that even Nascent Soul experts couldn't destroy, yet it was still covered in scars under this sword energy. The sharpness of this sword energy was evident!

Ji Boying took a sharp breath.

If Li Pu hadn't pushed him away just now, he would probably have been annihilated, body and soul.

"Such powerful sword energy!"

"Although we are both at the Gold Core stage, why is there such a huge gap between us?"

"And... his sword intent is even purer than mine... Is this the foundation of the Wan Dao Commercial Bank?"

Ji Boying looked at Li Pu not far away, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

A feeling of being struck down also emerged.

In this way, Li Pu maintained his current state for nearly two hours before completely retracting all the chaotic sword energy and sword qi.

He supported himself with his hands on the ground, panting heavily.

His clothes and hair were completely soaked with sweat.

Seeing this, Ji Boying quickly handed over the prepared pills.

Without much hesitation, Li Pu took out one pill at a time and swallowed them directly.

After several revolutions of his meridians, when the medicinal power completely merged into his body, he finally let out a long breath and lay flat on the floor, as if he had survived a disaster.

"I won't say thank you for your great kindness. Brother Ji, I will remember this favor!"

Ji Boying chuckled.

"Brother Li, you're being too polite. Since I entered Fulong City, I have owed Brother Li many favors. Now that Brother Li needs help, how can I just sit idly by?"

"I see that Brother Li's aura is still somewhat chaotic, so I won't disturb your rest for now."

Saying that, Ji Boying bid farewell and walked towards the meeting hall.

However, just as he was about to leave the room, Li Pu's voice came from behind.

"Hold on!"

"Brother Ji has helped me so much, it would be impolite if I don't show any gratitude."

Li Pu smiled and took out a book from his pocket, saying,

"Brother Ji is now a guest elder at the Profound Rank. Whether it's ordinary or extraordinary cultivation resources, Brother Ji probably won't lack them."

"I have a secret technique here that Brother Ji might find useful."
