Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

A month's time passes in the blink of an eye.

Inside the cave.

Ji Boying silently traced the Five Elements Thunder Spirit Pattern. It was only when the final layer of the Five Elements Spirit Pattern and the Thunder Spirit were mutually integrated that he abruptly put down his brush and let out a long breath.

Feeling the violent aura emanating from the spirit pattern in front of him, a satisfied smile appeared on Ji Boying's face.

After a month of continuous practice, he finally mastered the Eighth Layer of the Integrated Union Spirit Pattern.

And he achieved a hundred percent success rate.

The only flaw was the time it took to trace the spirit pattern.

To complete an Eighth Layer Integrated Union Spirit Pattern, even if it was just a simple single spirit element overlay, Ji Boying needed to consume nearly ten breaths.

Not to mention the more complex integration between the Five Elements.

Of course, compared to before when he couldn't even trace the pattern, he had made a lot of progress.

"Now, with the Eighth Layer Integrated Union Spirit Pattern, my success rate in drawing the Small Five Thunder Derivative Talisman has reached fifty percent. Although the rate of producing high-quality talismans hasn't improved much, it's only about ten percent."

"But... it's enough to disturb ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators."

"Well... it's limited to ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators. If I were to encounter someone like Li Pu, I probably wouldn't be of much use unless I'm willing to pay a price and rely on quantity to win."

"Li Pu..."

Thinking of this, Ji Boying couldn't help but show a bitter smile.

Before he broke through to the Elemental Martial Realm, he hadn't noticed it much.

Now, with the physique of the Elemental Martial Realm, he was capable of directly confronting Nascent Soul cultivators head-on. Even in the case of using the Sword Dao of Intention, he could fight with all his strength and defeat mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

At this moment, Ji Boying realized that he was far inferior to Li Pu in terms of combat ability.

It was like the difference between heaven and earth.

"Not to mention that it has been several years since then. Even now, facing him at the Nascent Soul Convention back then, I would still only end up being killed without using my Integrated Union Talisman."

"Wait a minute, if I didn't have a chance of winning against him a few years ago, how strong would he be now? How much chance of winning would I have against him after using my own Integrated Union Talisman?"

"Can't I even achieve a fifty-fifty chance?"

"Damn it! How can the gap between people be so huge?"

"It's fortunate that the Nascent Soul demonic cultivators on Qiandao Lake are only in the early stage, even the few outsiders are the same."

"I should take advantage of this opportunity to refine a few more high-quality Small Five Thunder Derivative Talismans!"

"After all, they should be back in less than half a month."

Ji Boying sighed softly, then picked up his spiritual brush again. He took out a piece of animal skin talisman paper from his storage ring, dipped it in some animal blood, and began to draw the Geng Metal Calamity Thunder Derivative Talisman.

---

Compared to the previous month, this half month passed by even faster.

Fortunately, Ji Boying had gained something during this half month.

In the span of fifteen days, he barely managed to obtain a high-quality derivative talisman in each of the five categories: Yi Wood Positive Thunder, Bing Fire Yang Thunder, Gui Water Yin Thunder, Geng Metal Calamity Thunder, and Wu Earth Dark Thunder. He had also refined them into his own Integrated Union Talismans.

When these five Integrated Union Talismans were simultaneously activated, they not only had control, weakening, and defensive effects, but also had powerful offensive capabilities.

The electric arc of the Yi Wood Positive Thunder not only had impressive damage, but also had a binding effect.

As for the Gui Water Yin Thunder, after it was released, it would form a dirty thunder domain that resembled a swamp. When the dirty thunder hit the target, it could greatly weaken the opponent's spiritual power.

As for the Wu Earth Dark Thunder, after it was activated, the thunder arc would condense into a barrier, trapping people inside. Even without the Integrated Union Talisman, it could firmly trap a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator for a short period of time.

Finally, the Bing Fire Yang Thunder and Geng Metal Calamity Thunder were the two most lethal thunder patterns.

Not to mention directly annihilating a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, it could at least severely injure them, rendering them unable to fight back.

If these five thunder patterns were simultaneously activated and hit their target, even if a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator came, they would only meet their death!

"I'd better keep these five high-quality Integrated Union Talismans, just in case."

"The Heavenly Demon Hall has such a layout, no matter what the purpose is, I must be on guard. It's possible that there might be a peak Nascent Soul cultivator, or even a Soul Formation level demonic cultivator!"

Buzz---

Just at this moment.

The identity token placed on the table suddenly started to flicker with a bright light, and before long, the voice of Qi Yan came from inside.

"Is it finally starting?"

Ji Boying stretched lazily, collected all the talisman spirit pens, and then got up and walked towards the cave.

Not long after he left, he arrived at the same restaurant as before.

He saw Qi Yan and Jiang Munian already waiting there.

"Greetings, Master Qi and Master Jiang," Ji Boying slightly bowed to the two.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, please take a seat quickly," Jiang Munian said with a smile, seeming to be in a good mood.

He poured Ji Boying a glass of clear wine and leisurely said,

"We have gained a lot from this trip! The mission that originally had little hope now has at least a fifty percent chance of success!"

"Oh?" Ji Boying raised an eyebrow.

With a fifty percent chance, plus the variables of himself and Su Ling, the hope of completing this mission is quite high!

Seemingly aware of Ji Boying's curiosity, Jiang Munian didn't keep him in suspense and continued,

"We have to thank Master Qi for this matter!"

"If it weren't for Master Qi using the Demon Token to secretly win over many demon cultivators from the Demon Temple, the success of this matter would still be uncertain!"

As he spoke, Jiang Munian briefly recounted what Qi Yan and he had done during this period.

Originally...

The reason why the Demon Temple secretly recruited so many demon cultivators this time was because beneath the Lingmai of Qian Dao Lake, there was a pool of Ling Sui the size of a fish pond!

That is the essence of spiritual stones!

Only a top-grade spiritual stone can barely extract a drop.

As for middle-grade and low-grade spiritual stones, no matter how many there are, they cannot be refined!

As for the function of Ling Sui, the most direct one is to help cultivators break through their realms without any side effects!

Even with restraints, Ling Sui can increase the probability of a breakthrough!

It's like those peak Gold Core cultivators, with the help of Ling Sui and Infant Nurturing spiritual objects, their success rate can reach as high as thirty percent!

Thirty percent!

Among a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators, it's not certain if even one can successfully nurture an Infant.

With Ling Sui, as long as there is an Infant Nurturing spiritual object, there is a thirty percent chance!

In addition, Ling Sui has great auxiliary effects in alchemy, refining, and even formation and talisman making!

Especially in pill refinement.

With the blessing of Ling Sui, not only can the success rate of pill formation be greatly improved, but the rate of high-grade pills and their efficacy will also increase significantly!

This is a fatal temptation for any faction!

No wonder the Demon Temple is willing to kill each other to obtain Qian Dao Lake!

No wonder the Chamber of Commerce issued a mission to destroy the Lingmai beneath Qian Dao Lake!

All of this...

Seems to make sense!

"If the Demon Temple really obtains this Ling Sui, the entire Five Continents will probably fall completely into their hands!"

Qi Yan's face showed a solemn expression as he said in a deep voice,

"So, no matter what, we must completely destroy the Lingmai beneath Qian Dao Lake!"
