Seeking Immortality

Just when Xu Qingfan seemed to have made up his mind and seemed to have seen through everything, Mr. Liu was pestering Master Jiuhuan in front of his house.

"Jiuhuan, don't expect that you can put on airs just because you are older than him. Tell me, why did you do this to Qingfan? What do you mean? If you don't explain everything clearly, I will never let you go."

Mr. Liu, a master of the generation, one of the three masters with the highest cultivation in the Righteous Alliance, was like a scoundrel seeking justice for his younger brother in the mortal world, shouting in front of Jiuhuan's house.

In fact, Mr. Liu had been making trouble in front of Master Jiuhuan's house for several hours, but Master Jiuhuan remained silent and had no intention of responding.

Between Mr. Liu's and Jiuhuan's houses, Master Tianhan, who was born in "Ciyun Temple" among the twelve masters of the Righteous Alliance, didn't know what to do. After hearing Mr. Liu angrily tell the whole story, he was also in a dilemma. It seemed that Master Jiuhuan did something wrong, but it seemed inappropriate to let Mr. Liu shout in front of his master's house.

In fact, Mr. Liu takes this matter much more seriously than everyone imagines.

The reason why the ancient method of practicing divination tortoise shells gradually declined or even lost is that the divination tortoise shells made by this method can only be used less than three times, and the more important reason is that practicing this kind of divination tortoise shells requires sacrificing a part of one's lifespan.

Few cultivators in the cultivation world know about this matter, and Mr. Liu is one of them, so Mr. Liu was so surprised before, and he was so obsessed with Master Jiuhuan at this time.

If Jiuhuan simply didn't like Xu Qingfan and calculated it, it would be fine, but if so, is it necessary to sacrifice his lifespan? You must know that the reason why Jiuhuan can live to this day is that he relies on the "Ciyun Temple" to gather the power of the entire sect with those extremely precious elixirs and a group of masters in the sect to continue their energy. For Jiuhuan, how precious lifespan is, you can imagine.

So, what is the purpose of Jiuhuan sacrificing his lifespan for Xu Qingfan? Mr. Liu trusted Jiuhuan's wisdom and vision. Jiuhuan was probably the only person in the entire cultivation world who could fully see into the secrets of heaven, so Mr. Liu had to know what he saw and what he thought of.

Finally, under Mr. Liu's shouting and clamoring, even Master Jiuhuan, who had studied Buddhist scriptures for three thousand years, could not stand it anymore and finally responded.

"Please come in, Mr. Liu."

Inside the bamboo house came the old voice of Master Jiuhuan.

In Master Tianhan's worried eyes, Mr. Liu pushed the door in angrily. He seemed to be even more angry because Jiuhuan had left him alone for several hours.

But the moment Mr. Liu entered Master Jiuhuan's room, the anger on his face suddenly disappeared. He became extremely serious and calm.

He sat cross-legged in front of Master Jiuhuan. He stared at Jiuhuan, who was still resting with his eyes closed, for a long time. Mr. Liu finally said, "Tell me. Why did you want to plot against Qingfan? You even sacrificed your own lifespan."

Jiu Huan slowly opened his eyes. Suddenly he smiled. He talked about something completely unrelated.

"Donor Liu, you have reached such a level of cultivation. You should understand that the so-called secrets of heaven are not something that we, the creatures of the world, can spy on. If you try to spy on it, the more you know, the greater the backlash from heaven and earth will be."

"Don't say you did this for Xu Qingfan's good. If he reaches the Mahayana stage in the future, he can completely withstand the backlash from heaven."

Mr. Liu said with a sneer.

Master Jiuhuan shook his head and sighed, "You still don't understand. The Heavenly Dao is vast and boundless. No one can bear its backlash, not even the Grandmasters. The reason why you have deduced the Heavenly Secrets over the years without fear of backlash from the Heavenly Dao is that the Heavenly Secrets you deduced are only one of countless possibilities, and are not important to the Heavenly Dao, so you can bear it. Otherwise, there have been so many Grandmasters in the world of immortal cultivation for thousands of years. Why haven't they been able to discover the Underworld Organization? Why can't you deduce the extent of the Underworld Organization's purpose now? It's not that you can't deduce it, but that you dare not deduce it."

"So what?" Mr. Liu did not deny it, but asked coldly.

"I have deduced it and saw the true future of a certain moment."

Master Jiuhuan said lightly.

Mr. Liu said with a cold smile, "What? Aren't you afraid of the backlash of the Heavenly Dao?"

"For a dying person, whether it is sacrificing half of the remaining lifespan or the backlash of the Heavenly Dao, it is not so terrible." Master Jiuhuan explained slowly: "I barely survived for three thousand years. For a cultivator who has not reached the Mahayana stage, it is too long. It is time for him to die."

Mr. Liu was silent for a moment and asked, "Is your lifespan going to run out?"

"There are still three months."

"What is the future you see? Is it related to Qingfan?" Mr. Liu was silent again for a moment. Suddenly asked.

"Everyone is related to the future, but he is a very special one. And that future is what we don't want to see."

"The so-called heavenly secret is just the biggest possibility among the countless possibilities in the future. There are countless possibilities in the future. You should understand."

Mr. Liu seemed to have thought of something and said slowly.

"So I want to change the future to what we want to see."

"So I want to design a plan to change the fate of Qingfan?"

"A person's fate can only be changed by themselves. No matter how powerful others are, there is nothing they can do. Moreover, his fate is not what he wants. Even if I don't design these, he will try to change it himself." Mr. Liu knew that he could not get anything out of Jiuhuan, the old charlatan. Jiuhuan seemed to have made up his mind to take what he had spied into the coffin. After all, the more people knew, the more variables his plan would have. So he didn't say anything more, stood up and walked out of the room.

But when he walked to the door, Mr. Liu suddenly turned around and said to Master Jiuhuan: "Do you know? I always hate you. You always think of yourself as a hermit master, thinking that you can save everyone's life at a critical moment, and you only think that you are right. Standing on the moral high ground, you can change other people's thoughts and fate at will. Do you think of yourself as a god?"

Master Jiuhuan was not angry, but just smiled slightly, and then asked: "Donor, don't you think you are right when you force the old monk to be so forced to define it?"

After Mr. Liu left. Master Tianhan entered Jiuhuan's room to greet him.

"Bring Bo Guangyan to my room."

Master Jiuhuan ordered.

In the following days, whether it was Xu Qingfan, Mr. Liu, or Master Jiuhuan, they all did their own things as if nothing had happened.

For example, Xu Qingfan, while busy practicing and refining the new magic weapon, was also constantly consolidating his power outside Jiuhua, and also managing Jiuhua with Li Yuhan and Dongfang Qingling. Every day was very full. It was busy, no different from before.

And in these busy days, three meaningful things happened to Xu Qingfan.

On the third day after Xu Qingfan used the divination tortoise shell to spy on his future destiny. Xiaohei finally recovered completely. Returned to Xu Qingfan's side.

On the seventh day, Ting'er, Zhang Ningmei, and Baiyu came out of retreat one after another. Not only did they break through their original realms, but they also refined the magic weapon given by Xu Qingfan, and their strength increased greatly for a while.

On the tenth day, the alchemists finally refined the precious materials given by Xu Qingfan into elixirs. They were the "Vitality Pill" made from the blood of the "Snow Jade Spirit Turtle", a healing elixir that can also prolong life. The efficacy of the "Blood Spirit Pill" is three points higher than that of the "Blood Spirit Pill". The "Ice Crystal Pill" made from the inner elixir of the "Snow Jade Spirit Turtle" can be used to restore and increase the spiritual energy of the immortal cultivators, and it is also very useful for stabilizing the state of mind of the immortal cultivators. In addition, there is the "Continuation of Heaven Pill" made from the liver of the "Ice Field Giant Elephant", which is for the spiritual pets to take. After taking it, the spiritual pets' abilities can be greatly increased.

After getting these elixirs, Xu Qingfan gave all 20 "Continuation of Heaven Pills" to Xiao Hei in ten days, in addition to giving one "Vitality Pill" and one "Ice Crystal Pill" to each of the three disciples. However, although Xiao Hei's ability seemed to have increased significantly after taking it, there was no sign of a breakthrough. It is too difficult for a demon beast to break through from the high level of the earth level to the heaven level, even more difficult than the breakthrough of the earthly cultivator from the golden elixir stage to the Mahayana stage.

Xu Qingfan looked at Xiao Hei, whose image and momentum did not change at all after he swallowed all the "Xu Tian Wan" voraciously, and sighed in his heart.

Three months later, Xu Qingfan finally refined all the new magic tools for his own use. For some reason, the masters of the Righteous Alliance have been busy gathering at the top of "Ronghua Mountain" during this period. Without their leadership, the cultivators of the Righteous Alliance did not dare to fight the demon beasts of the Southern Wilderness, so this decisive battle was delayed again and again.

That night, Xu Qingfan played with the "Dragon Calling Order". His face was full of contemplation.

He was thinking whether he should take advantage of this time to refine it for his own use.

Refining the "Dragon Calling Order" is different from refining the magic tools before. Most of the magic tools before were originally Xu Qingfan's things. The old beggars and the others just blended some precious materials into it to enhance its ability, so Xu Qingfan didn't spend much time and energy to refine it.

But the "Dragon Calling Order" is different. It is not a magic weapon, but a magic treasure. As far as Xu Qingfan knows, even a master needs several years to refine a magic treasure. For a cultivator like Xu Qingfan, no one knows how long it will take to refine the "Dragon Calling Order", because it is rare for a non-master cultivator to get a magic treasure in the world of immortal cultivation. This is also the reason why Xu Qingfan has not refined the "Dragon Calling Order".

And just as Xu Qingfan was thinking, suddenly, two majestic and strange spiritual fluctuations woke Xu Qingfan up.

On this night, an unprecedented event happened in the Righteous Alliance.
