Longevity and Immortal Journey: Raising Demons, Raising Plants and Seeking Immortals

Chapter 427 Enemies Meet, Outer Realm

Facing everyone's gaze.

Li Changsheng and the anxious Shougui passed through the Qingyang boat's shield and landed on the deck.

look around.

Monks with different figures and temperaments came into view. Most of them nodded slightly in response to his gaze. A few closed their eyes to rest, or looked towards the direction of Luanming Mountain. Only two people looked at him with not only scrutiny but also a hint of hostility.

Li Changsheng followed his gaze and was slightly stunned. A smile appeared on his face, but his eyes were cold.

The Shougui beside him seemed to sense something strange and looked in the direction he was looking.

Not far from the deck corner.

An old man with a slightly hunched back and wrinkled face stood with his hands clasped together. Next to him stood a young man of about 28 years old, wearing a long robe embroidered with mountains and rivers, with a still childish face.

"Ah…"

Noticing the anthropomorphic gaze of the Shou Gui, the young boy suddenly turned his head and sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"An enemy of Li Changsheng's sect?" Shou Gui narrowed his eyes, his mind churning, and suddenly he grinned at the young boy, baring his teeth, his mouth opening and closing, and a hoarse and sharp voice rang in the young boy's ears, "Little bastard."

Hear the words.

The young boy was stunned for a moment, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he walked towards where Li Changsheng was.

The old man next to him frowned, glanced at Li Changsheng who was standing next to Shougui with a smile on his face, thought for a moment, and did not stop the young man, but followed slowly.

Seeing the young boy coming towards him with great momentum, Shou Gui did not show any fear at all. He raised his head and looked at Li Changsheng. Seeing the encouragement in his eyes, he no longer had any concerns in his heart.

A strange smile appeared on Shougui's narrow face, and his pale pupils stared at the young man who was walking towards him.

Although he did not use any tricks, one was a great demon who was almost at the third level of the heaven, and the other was just a beginner. Under the clash of their qi, the young boy was defeated in just a moment. His pupils contracted and his steps slowed down unconsciously.

"What a big monster."

Behind the young boy, the old man looked at the longevity ghost in some surprise. Obviously, he did not expect that a yellow-skinned creature that looked like an anthropomorphic being could be a big demon that was even stronger than him.

Come to your senses.

Looking at Lu Lingqiu who was trying hard to walk towards Li Changsheng and Shougui, the old man stepped forward, blocked Lu Lingqiu, shook his head slightly, and said in a voice transmission:
"You and I are here on behalf of the Lu family to respond to the sect's order and destroy the foreign sect. This trip is related to whether our Lu family can break the current situation. Please don't cause any more trouble."

Not sure whether he understood what the old man said or was afraid, Lu Lingqiu lowered his head slightly, turned around and followed the old man to the corner of the deck.

"Tsk, trash."

After walking a few steps, a sharp and hoarse voice echoed on the deck.

Lu Lingqiu suddenly turned around and stared at the Shou Gui. Strands of yellow jade light rose from his body and faintly transformed into a mountain above his head.

But at this moment, a hand as old as a chicken claw rested on his shoulder, and the mountain that was about to solidify above Lu Lingqiu's head disappeared silently.

"Walk."

The old man looked at the longevity ghost beside Li Changsheng with fear, grabbed Lu Lingqiu and walked directly into the cabin.

The two left.

Everyone on the deck looked at the man and the monster. Some smiled kindly, some seemed to be thinking about something, and some shook their heads slightly and looked elsewhere.

In order to gain favor, Shou Gui bowed repeatedly in response.

At this time.

In the cabin, a tall old man with white hair and beard strode out and looked around. When he saw Li Changsheng and Shougui, a look of doubt emerged on his face.

But he seemed to have thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked quickly towards Li Changsheng. As he got closer, he seemed to sense something.

A look of shock appeared in the tall old man's eyes.

"Second level of Dao foundation?"

"Hey, this really gave me a big surprise."

The tall old man's mind changed, and his stern expression disappeared, replaced by a bright smile as he walked over.

Li Changsheng felt something in his heart and turned his head to look. When he saw the tall old man coming, he was surprised for a moment, then greeted him with a sincere smile on his face, "Junior greets Elder Gu."

"We are so close, why are you so polite?" Elder Gu stepped forward, extended his hand, and said jokingly, "Do you want me to call you the True Master?"

"How dare I." Li Changsheng smiled and shook his head.

When he was at the Condensing Veins Stage, he had no idea of ​​the ancient elder’s realm of cultivation. Now that he has advanced to the Second Stage of Dao Foundation, he can clearly feel the fierce aura surrounding the tall old man. Like him, he is at the Second Stage of Dao Foundation.

"I am older than you for a while. If you don't mind, you can call me Senior Brother or Old Man." Elder Gu stroked his beard and sighed softly, "In just a few decades, you have reached such a level. It is worth it for this old man's beloved disciple to respect you so much."

"Brother, you are too kind." Li Changsheng smiled and asked, "How is Junior Brother Tan now?"

Elder Gu seemed to be somewhat proud and said: "Although Tan Hu cannot compare with you, fortunately he had good luck and once got a tiger's molt, which benefited him a lot. When I left the sect, he had already built up some minor magical powers."

Li Changsheng nodded and asked Elder Gu about the sect's affairs.

As they talked, they walked towards the corner of the deck.

To the edge corner.

Li Changsheng suddenly said, "The Dao Fruit Spiritual Seed has been found, but planting Dao Fruit still requires a third-level spiritual field. I wonder if Senior Brother Gu is ready?"

When they invited him to help, they made an agreement that he would search for spiritual seeds and plant them, while Elder Gu would be responsible for renting the third-level spiritual fields. Elder Gu looked at him in surprise, but was relieved when he thought of his cultivation. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "All the third-level spiritual fields in the sect are controlled by the five spiritual plant veins. I have tried to persuade them several times, but I still have to wait for a decade."

Li Changsheng frowned slightly.

It wasn't because of Elder Gu, but because the five veins of spiritual plants he mentioned controlled the sect's third-level spiritual fields, which undoubtedly made his plan to rent the third-level spiritual fields to earn resources for cultivation fail.

Seeing Li Changsheng frown, Elder Gu thought he was dissatisfied with the time. He hesitated for a moment and said in a voice transmission: "Don't worry, Junior Brother Li. There is actually another way. It won't take that long."

"Huh?" Li Changsheng looked at him puzzledly.

Elder Gu pondered for a moment and asked, "I heard that the "Ten Thousand Corpse Mound" of the Outer Domain Sect was discovered by you, Junior Brother Li, and then reported to the sect?"

Li Changsheng didn't understand what he meant, but he nodded and said, "It's me."

Elder Gu looked around and suddenly said something that stunned Li Changsheng.

"Junior Brother Li, if I ask you to disguise yourself as a disciple of the "Ten Thousand Corpses Tomb" and go to the outer realm, would you be willing to go?"

Don't wait for his reply.

Elder Gu added: "Outside the domain is not like the Ten Thousand Mountains. The spiritual veins there are like dragons, which can be used to build a hut and cultivate the foundation of Taoism. There are secret realms and blessed places everywhere, and spiritual objects are like the sea. From time to time, the inheritance of ancient cultivation flows out."

A speech.

Elder Gu praised the outside world as a fairyland, but the myriad mountains in his words seemed like poor and barren land, and they could not be compared at all.

But Li Changsheng was not moved at all.

By searching the souls of the disciples in the "Ten Thousand Corpses Tomb", he gained some understanding of the outside world.

The spiritual veins and secret blessed lands are, as the ancient elders said, suitable for practicing Taoism and nurturing spiritual creatures like the sea.

But there is one thing.

These things all belong to someone.

In the Daqing Dynasty, the sect and the dynasty jointly govern, and the basis of this co-governance is a huge formation that is huge enough to cover 70% of the territory of the Daqing Dynasty.

The great formation is based on the dragon veins, which are twelve giant spiritual veins as huge as dragons. It takes the capital of Daqing as the hub and the twelve states of Daqing as its branches.

It has been thousands of years since its establishment.

According to the memory of the monks in the "Tomb of Ten Thousand Corpses", the formation has only been activated a few times, and each time it was when a country or clan was destroyed, and the territory was filled with a sea of ​​dead souls and bones.

These are just what he knows, there are many more that he doesn't know.

Today, the "Tomb of Ten Thousand Corpses" is notorious in Daqing and is wanted by the Daqing royal family.

Compared to disguising himself as a disciple of the "Ten Thousand Corpses Tomb", it is better to be a casual cultivator in Daqing. Although it is difficult to make a name for yourself, at least you will not encounter life-and-death crises for no reason.

And the most important point is.

Why would Qingyang Sect do this? If they wanted to cause trouble, the Qingyang disciples who entered the outer domain would be in trouble.

Considering the size of the Daqing Dynasty, the Qingyang Sect is probably just a giant ant.

After Elder Gu had explained the matter several times, he saw that Li Changsheng was still unmoved. He thought for a moment and said seriously, "Now that Junior Brother Li has been promoted to Dao Foundation, do you have any subsequent cultivation plans?"

Li Changsheng nodded slightly and looked at him in confusion.

"In the upper reaches of the Wanzhong Mountains, there are only three places that can help Taoists practice. Or you could say there is only one place." Elder Gu explained, "The Falling Star Land, where the blood cores of wild beasts are most beneficial to physical cultivation, but the spiritual energy there is disordered and there are many dangers."

"The Firefly Swamp, where fireflies are born at sunrise and die at sunset, contains many spiritual creatures."

“And fireflies die and fireflies are born, accumulating for thousands and tens of thousands of years. Even Jindan-level cultivators dare not go deep into the core of the Firefly Swamp, and Taoist cultivators only dare to wander around the inner area. However, the occasional eruption of fireflies still devours countless Taoist cultivators.”

"Besides these two, there is only the Broken Sky Abyss."

At this point, Elder Gu paused and said in a concentrated voice: "Can you imagine what would happen if dozens or even hundreds of Taoist monks from various sects gathered in one place?"

“That’s the real realm of chaos.”

“In Broken Sky Abyss, every cultivator is walking on the brink of life and death.” Elder Gu shook his head and sighed: “Even a great cultivator at the Golden Core Realm is in danger of falling.”

"Junior Brother Li, where will you go to practice in the future?"

Li Changsheng frowned and said nothing.

Elder Gu smiled and said, "Think about it carefully. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Outer Realm is a fairyland for us, and things are not as bad as you think." After a pause, he said softly, "The Qingyang Sect was also relocated from the Outer Realm."

"Ok?"

Li Changsheng was stunned. This was the first time he had heard this. His mind turned and he asked in surprise, "Could it be that the sect wants to return?"

Elder Gu smiled but said nothing. Suddenly, he turned around and looked towards the sky. Looking at the speeding light, he said with a smile, "I hope they can be faster. If we wait any longer, the peak master will be unhappy." After that, he chuckled twice.

"Peak Master?" Li Changsheng looked surprised and asked, "Is it the Mountain King Peak Master who is in charge of destroying the "Ten Thousand Corpse Tomb" this time?"

Elder Gu nodded and immediately asked, "Junior Brother Li, are you willing to come with me to meet the disciples of Shanjun Peak?"

Li Changsheng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and declined, "I won't disturb Senior Brother Gu from meeting his friends."

Elder Gu did not force it, nodded, and walked to the side.

"Master of Mountain Monarch Peak."
