Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 192: Elder of the Immortal Mist Sect's Foundation Building Falls

Of course, three years is still too short.

Apart from his sword cultivation reaching Rank Two Superior, there hasn't been much progress in alchemy, talismans, and formations.

The progress in various techniques is also the same.

After all, cultivation is like this. If one doesn't cultivate diligently, their abilities won't improve.

In fact, not only will they not improve, sometimes they may even regress.

That's why ordinary cultivators usually specialize in one path and don't involve themselves in other paths.

Because human energy and time are limited.

It's impossible to make great progress in every path, to reap rewards in all of them, and become an all-rounder.

If Zhou Sui didn't have the help of the Book Gu, he wouldn't dare to do so.

Otherwise, no matter how much lifespan he had, it wouldn't be enough for his own consumption.

Of course, besides these things, his greatest progress is undoubtedly the Seven Orifice Exquisite Book.

He has already started condensing the third eye.

This eye is called the Eye of Communication.

Once successfully condensed, it will be able to understand the language of all things.

To be honest, this ability is quite important.

Because in the world of cultivation, there are countless races and creatures, and these creatures all have different languages.

If one can master the language of all things, it's like being a local no matter where they go, without fear of being unable to adapt to unfamiliar places.

...

At noon, Zhou Sui also returned to the living room of Xianxia Peak.

At this time, his wives had already prepared today's lunch. The table was filled with a variety of delicious food, with a fragrant aroma.

After years of practice, their culinary skills have improved.

Every dish makes one's mouth water.

Swish!

At this moment, Leng Yuxi hurriedly returned from outside, her face serious, as if something big had just happened.

"Yue Xi, what's going on? Did something big happen in the Immortal Mist Sect?" Zhou Sui curiously asked.

From Leng Yuxi's expression, he could tell that something serious had definitely happened. Otherwise, Leng Yuxi wouldn't have such an expression. This kind of expression was already rare.

"Indeed, something big happened."

"Didn't I repeatedly forbid the cultivators of the Immortal Mist Sect from exploring Blood Shadow Ancestor's Cave Mansion?"

"Unfortunately, some Foundation Building elders didn't obey the orders."

"For example, the Peak Master of the Formation Peak, Yao Wen, the Master of the Reward and Punishment Hall, Xue Qiyang, the Master of the Refining Hall, Luo Dingtian, and so on."

"They went together to Blood Shadow Ancestor's Cave Mansion."

Leng Yuxi said in a deep voice.

"Oh, could it be that something unexpected happened to them?" Zhou Sui raised an eyebrow.

"That's right."

"During the process of deciphering the prohibition formation in the Cave Mansion, they accidentally suffered from the backlash of the prohibition and were severely injured on the spot."

"After leaving the Cave Mansion, they were even ambushed by other foreign Foundation Building cultivators."

"The result is self-evident. Luo Dingtian and the Master of the Reward and Punishment Hall, Xue Qiyang, died directly. As for Yao Wen, he luckily survived and desperately escaped back to the Immortal Mist Sect."

"But even so, he was severely injured, losing a hand and a leg, damaging his foundation. He has no hope of reaching Gold Core in this lifetime, and he hasn't even preserved his late Foundation Building cultivation."

Leng Yuxi said helplessly.

"Luo Dingtian and Xue Qiyang died?"

"And Yao Wen is seriously injured, becoming disabled, and has no hope of reaching the Gold Core stage?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Sui was speechless. Although he knew that these elders from the Immortal Mist Sect's Foundation Building stage going to the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion might not necessarily achieve their desired goals and obtain treasures.

But who could have expected that, even before the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion was completely deciphered, they would die inside.

Even Yao Wen had to use all his trump cards just to barely make it back to the Immortal Mist Sect alive.

It seems that in this lifetime, reaching the Gold Core stage is basically hopeless.

He originally thought that these Foundation Building cultivators could still cause him some trouble.

But now it seems that they don't even have that opportunity.

However, this is also a microcosm of the cultivation world.

Due to the scarcity of cultivation resources, every cultivator who wants to break through needs to take risks.

But where in the world is anything so simple?

Since it is an adventure, it is impossible to have gains every time.

Once you fail, you will die.

Both Luo Dingtian and the Lord of the Reward and Punishment Hall, Xue Qiyang, are like this. They are elders of the Immortal Mist Sect and were once the pride of the heavens, possessing Superior Spirit Roots.

But so what?

Due to a moment of carelessness, they lost their lives and completely cut off their path.

It is because of this that Zhou Sui is reluctant to leave the Xianxia Peak.

Since he can cultivate peacefully and steadily here until the Gold Core stage, why take risks?

Especially in such a dangerous place like the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion, no one knows what unexpected factors there might be.

One careless move, and one will perish inside the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion.

"I didn't expect that the esteemed elders of the Immortal Mist Sect, who are Foundation Building cultivators, have been cultivating for many years, would just die like that. The cultivation world is truly too dangerous," Ji Bingyu said with emotion.

She originally thought that Foundation Building cultivators should be able to live peacefully for over two hundred years.

However, it seems that the reality is not so.

Even cultivators at the Foundation Building stage can die if they provoke danger.

"You're right, my lord."

"Although there are indeed many opportunities in the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion, it is extremely dangerous."

"We are not fortunate enough to enjoy these opportunities, so it's better to stay in the Immortal Mist Sect and cultivate diligently."

Mu Ziyan is now even more convinced of her husband's cautious approach.

If it weren't for her husband's extreme caution and unwillingness to take risks, they might not have been able to cultivate to their current level or enjoy such a good cultivation environment.

If they continue to cultivate step by step, they have a great chance of reaching the Gold Core stage.

"Cold sister, it's not a bad thing that these troublemakers died."

"Before, they seemed respectful to you on the surface, but they often acted against you in secret."

"Now that they died outside, we can conveniently arrange our trusted followers to take their original positions."

"Especially that peak master Yao Wen, he has been forming cliques and factions for years. It is said that he even boasted in front of many Foundation Building elders that after he reaches Core Formation, he will definitely bring you down and become the new sect master of the Immortal Mist Sect."

Xia Jingyan actually thinks it's good that these Foundation Building cultivators died.

In this way, the Immortal Mist Sect will truly become Leng Yuxi's dictatorship, where her words are law.

At the same time, she finds the peak master Yao Wen very laughable.

Truly, he is ambitious but has a fragile life.

For the sake of Core Formation, he formed cliques and took risks, as if he planned to start a new sect within the Immortal Mist Sect.

But in the end, he died during the exploration of the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion.

Basically, he didn't cause them any trouble.

She had worried about him as if he were a formidable enemy, always paying attention to him.

Who could have expected that he would die before they even had a chance to make a move?
