Dao Companions Help Me Live Forever

I am doomed!

The Lord of the Chu Mansion watched as the boundless sea of blood surged towards him, the endless bloody scent filling his senses.

But at this moment, he didn't feel much fear.

Perhaps because he had rehearsed this moment in his mind many times during his days of captivity, now that it had truly arrived, he felt a sense of relief.

Centuries of cultivation, gone in an instant.

He recalled the time when he became a disciple of the True Monarch of the Three Suns. At that time, he was full of spirit and was the most outstanding successor of the Chu family.

He thought that the position of the true successor was within his grasp, but he was defeated by his arrogance.

His supernatural power was broken, and his inner pride was shattered along with it.

Perhaps he had been too smooth sailing all his life, never experiencing the taste of failure. In that battle, he was completely defeated.

He rejected the kindness of his master and obeyed the wishes of his family, being sent out of the sect.

In these years, he seemed carefree and indulged in the beauty of nature, but it was actually a form of escape.

If it weren't for the lingering trace of unwillingness in his heart, how could he have been easily tempted by President Bai and ended up in this desperate situation today?

In the face of life and death, the knot that had always existed in the Lord of the Chu Mansion's heart suddenly disappeared.

Competing with his past self was no longer interesting.

But... it's too late.

The Lord of the Chu Mansion took a lingering look at the world before him, and then his body and mind froze. A cold wind swept through him like a knife, and finally exploded behind him.

The bald Devil Monarch in front of him turned to the side dissatisfied.

"Why didn't you kill him?"

"I have always had a pleasant relationship with the Lord of the Chu Mansion. He just made a mistake for a moment, and I have long stopped caring about it."

Then a person walked in from outside the hall, it was Yu Xian.

He nodded slightly to the startled Lord of the Chu Mansion and said with a teasing tone,

"Lord of the Chu Mansion, you owe me your life today."

The Lord of the Chu Mansion said expressionlessly,

"You killed me, and not killing me is also your doing. Whether I owe you or not, you can take this life of mine."

Yu Xian laughed heartily, "Lord of the Chu Mansion, you are truly formidable. You saw through my little scheme at a glance.

That's right, killing you would provoke the resentment of my master and the Xuan Yang Sect. Although I don't think much of my master, I came to the Xuan Yang Realm to make friends, not to fight with swords.

In addition, I spared your life for another reason."

Although the Lord of the Chu Mansion said so, he was actually somewhat grateful in his heart, but he was still being stubborn at the moment.

"My life is in your hands, what else can I do for you?"

Yu Xian shook his head, "Not for me, but for the clients of the Great Unity Society."

"True Monarch of the Three Suns will probably arrive soon. If I stay here, it will be dangerous. However, those cultivators who trusted me and the Lord of the Mansion to store their spirit stones in the Great Unity Society are innocent.

After I leave, I will leave a large sum of spirit stones to the Great Unity Society, barely maintaining the Great Love Project.

I spared your life because I want you to advise others not to touch those spirit stones, leaving them a glimmer of hope.

Of course, whether to listen or not is up to you, but... you will bear the consequences."

Killing the Lord of the Chu Mansion was the lowest option.

From beginning to end, Yu Xian had no intention of taking the Lord of the Chu Mansion's life, he only coveted his wealth.

After all, if they touched the Lord of the Chu Mansion's spirit stones, it would be a personal grudge between the two of them.

If he took the Lord of the Chu Mansion's life, it would be a grudge between him and the Xuan Yang Sect, not only would he not gain any benefits, but he would also provoke the pursuit of the Xuan Yang Sect.

Of course, if the Lord of the Chu Mansion didn't know how to appreciate it and thought that the background of the Xuan Yang Sect gave him a sense of invincibility, he wouldn't mind testing the effectiveness of his deceit.

Fortunately, the Lord of the Chu Mansion was very aware of his situation as a prisoner.

There was also another important reason.

He ran away, leaving behind a large amount of bad debts in the Great Unity Society, someone had to take the blame, and it would lay the groundwork for him to regain control of the Great Unity Society in the future.

The success of the Wang Shu Mansion's experience with the Great Unity Society was enough to prove that his idea was feasible.

It's just that the only thing missing was the power to establish dominance, which made him appear passive.

When he broke through the Nascent Soul Realm and his combat power greatly increased, the Great Unity Society would be the perfect path for him to break through the Divine Transformation.

So the reputation of the Great Unity Society couldn't be completely ruined.

The Lord of the Chu Mansion had just walked through life and death, how could he have expected Yu Xian to be so cunning, and instead be surprised that Yu Xian was still thinking about those cultivators who had been deceived by them.

"Could it be that the Great Unity Society is actually true?"

After the appearance of the Devil Dao True Monarch, the Great Unity Society in his eyes had become a completely Devil Dao organization. If they didn't harm others for their own benefit, it would be considered good. But now, they were still thinking about those who had been deceived by them.

Yu Xian smiled, "Lord of the Chu Mansion, I have always said that the Great Unity Society treats all beings equally. Whether they are immortals or demons, as long as they abide by the rules and have a heart to help others, they are our kind."

"I really wanted to establish the Great Unity Society here, but unfortunately, the secular perspective does not tolerate us."

There is also someone who wants to get a share of the pie from the meeting, just like the Lord of the Chu Mansion. This is what has led the Datong Society to where it is today."

Saying this, he said to the bald man, "Senior Jiang, I know you really want to kill him, but for the sake of my face, please release the restrictions on Lord Chu."

The bald man frowned and impatiently withdrew the power from Lord Chu.

"Lord Chu, until we meet again."

Yu Xian nodded at Lord Chu and then disappeared with the bald man.

Feeling the long-lost power in his body, Lord Chu reflexively wanted to summon his Magic Treasures, but ended up empty-handed.

"Damn it!"

Lord Chu cursed to himself, realizing that he had been completely drained of all his possessions.

He helped the unconscious child on the ground and infused magic power.

"Junior Brother Fu."

"Senior Brother Chu, did you save me? Who was that person just now? Such strong power, it seemed like the power of True Monarch's domain. I couldn't resist at all."

The child woke up in a daze, asking a series of questions.

Lord Chu sighed and said slowly, "Junior Brother, this is a long story..."

...

"Sir, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

On a small flying boat, Yulan stood on the front deck, facing Yu Xian, against the wind in the sky.

Behind her were a group of people listening attentively.

Luo Han, Zhao Shiwen, Old Master Wu, Qiu En, Qiu Yourong...

And Ah Miao, who was being held by Luo Han.

As for Ah Miao's mother, she had long been accustomed to the darkness of the spirit beast bag, mainly because she was too big and didn't have the means of the Ruyi Scepter to change her size.

This small flying boat could be filled with just one of her.

Yu Xian said, "We have to choose the right time to run, and it's a waste of a furnace of elixirs. I also wanted to finish refining the pills before leaving. Unfortunately, I have no say in this matter."

Yulan looked worried, "So where are we going now?"

"You should ask Shiwen about that, she has already made arrangements."

Yu Xian rubbed Yulan's head and, seeing her worried expression, couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, no one is chasing us. We're just leaving for a while. When a few years pass and you want to come back and take a look, we'll come back."

A hint of confusion appeared on Yulan's face.

"It's a pity for those flowers in the courtyard. I've been growing them for many years, and I don't know how many will survive until the next time I come back. When will we stop running around like this, my love?"

From the small Fuhuang Mansion, to the capital, Shangyang City, the Zhao family's territory, Shangyang Mountain, Qiufeng City, Wangshu Mansion...

Along the way, if it weren't for the company of her husband, she would have long been lost.

She still longed for a stable life.

She just wanted to have her own little home, grow flowers, raise fish, harvest in autumn and store in winter. That would make her feel very happy.

Yu Xian was stunned for a moment, then gently pinched Yulan's cheek.

"Don't worry, we won't have to run for much longer."

"What's wrong? Didn't we agree that we would go wherever the husband goes? Now you're complaining about me?"

Blushing, Yulan jumped into Yu Xian's arms.

"No, I'm not complaining. I'll go wherever you go, my love."

The people behind them, who were being fed dog food, remained silent.

Luo Han and Zhao Shiwen looked at each other with envy in their eyes.

They knew that Yulan held a different position in her husband's heart, a position that they could never reach.

Old Master Wu had a numb expression, indicating that he had already gotten used to it.

As a pill refining tool, all he wanted to know was when the options that the young master mentioned would be available. He was starting to miss home.

Qiu En, who was confined to pill refining, looked at his daughter with a "I told you so" expression, as if to say, "Daddy didn't say anything wrong, he's just a scumbag."

Then he saw a pair of bright, longing eyes.

Qiu Yourong held her heart with both hands and murmured, "So this is the true face of the chairman. He's really gentle."

Qiu En: "......"

He really wanted to jump off the flying boat and end it all.

But thinking about how Yu Xian had restricted his freedom over the years, yet had spared no expense in cultivating him, allowing his cultivation base to advance rapidly at the age of a hundred.

Perhaps he also had a chance to catch a glimpse of the Gold Core realm, and a very good chance at that.

After all, he himself had refined thirty to forty furnaces of unorthodox Gold Cores.

This favor was really hard to repay.

So he could only turn a blind eye and ignore it, tilting his head to the side and closing his eyes to meditate.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings.

If President Bai wanted to harm his daughter, after so many years, she would have been completely consumed, and he wouldn't need to worry about it.

...

Great Unity Society, headquarters in the capital.

Clang!

Three copper coins fell from an ancient tortoise shell, landing on the table and being picked up one by one by two fair and slender fingers.

"How is it? How is it?"

Qi Chunshen asked nervously.

He never expected that the Great Unity Society, which he saw as having boundless prospects and a bright future, would suddenly become like this.

First, the industries of the society were auctioned off, and then, before he could even settle into his destitute life, the president ran away!

What about the people behind the scenes?

What about the Ten Thousand Year organization and the Divine Transformation Venerable?

If it weren't for his life still being in someone else's hands, he would have had to run away as well.

Actually, he could have run away.

Before the auction of the industries, Yu Xian had arranged for the preparatory members of the Great Unity Society to lie low.

But he thought that his identity had already been exposed, and hiding would be pointless. It would be better to follow the old turtle fellow daoist and become a remaining member with honor.

As for those who were just simple debt-ridden fake pill cultivators, they didn't have such good luck. They were still bound by contracts in the capital and were working hard to repay their debts.

However, the capital was only so big, and even though dozens of fake pill cultivators had been reduced due to the battles of the demon-slaying army, there were still a lot of them left.

But now there were no demons to slay, and the remaining people were struggling.

They had no sense of belonging to the Great Unity Society and only wanted to repay their debts and regain their freedom as soon as possible. They weren't that sensitive to the situation.

Gui Shou put away the tortoise shell magic treasures and shook his head, saying, "It's a great calamity, but within the calamity, there is a glimmer of hope. I believe it must be the lifeline left by the president for us."

Qi Chunshen's face fell.

"Old turtle, how did it suddenly become like this? I was about to accumulate enough merits and soon be free."

Gui Shou said, "If you really accumulate enough, are you willing to leave? You've made a lot of extra money these years. I heard that you've already chosen the next Gold Core seed for the Qi family. Where did the resources come from? It's all from the Great Unity Society."

Gui Shou's eyes were sharp, even more confident than Qi Chunshen.

"And I believe in the president. He will come back."

Just based on the ten unorthodox Gold Cores and hundreds of Foundation Establishment pills in his storage ring, he believed that the president would definitely come back.

The premise was that he could hold on for these ten years.

Yes, the president had given him the task of maintaining the Great Unity Society for another ten years. After ten years, he would truly become the president's right-hand man.

By then...

Gui Shou's gaze lowered.

He didn't have the physique of those geniuses and prodigies, not even as good as an ordinary genius. To be able to come this far step by step, besides the opportunity he had obtained from the tortoise shell magic treasures in his early years, he relied on an unwavering and indifferent attitude towards life and death.

Now he was a fake pill cultivator, but the fake pill realm was not his end point.

Qi Chunshen sighed.

"Let's hope so."

...

One day later.

The Three Yang True Monarch, spanning thirty thousand miles, met his disciple and the boy in the city lord's mansion.

"Master, greetings."

Chu Tianxing paid his respects.

The Three Yang True Monarch's expression was neither cold nor warm. "Rise."

Then he looked at the boy beside him.

"Qingzhu, why did you use the Blood Symbol from thousands of miles away to warn us? What happened?"

The boy, commonly known as Fuyan but Dao-named Qingzhu, quickly recounted everything that had happened at the Lord's Mansion when he heard the inquiry from the Lord.

"On that day, I followed the Lord's orders and rushed here day and night..."

In front of the True Monarch, he dared not hide anything, nor was there any need to.

However, when Yu Xian arrived, he had already been subdued and unconscious, so he didn't hear their conversation and knew very little.

"The unfamiliar Nascent Soul True Monarch knocked you out, and that's it?"

True Monarch Sanyang was still waiting for more information, but the boy had spoken a lot before, and now he only said one sentence about the main matter.

Embarrassed, the boy said, "In response to the Lord, that's it."

"Tianxing, you speak."

True Monarch Sanyang finally looked at this once most beloved disciple, and with this look, he noticed something different.

"Huh? Tianxing, your spirit?"

Chu Fuzhu's face remained calm, with a sense of being unperturbed by favor or disgrace.

"Master, your disciple was fortunate enough to see through the mystery of life and death, and my sea of consciousness has entered a state of transformation."

True Monarch Sanyang immediately became overjoyed, "Good, good, this is great!"

"Master, it seems this trip was not in vain. To receive such good news, the transformation of the sea of consciousness, the third tribulation of the Nascent Soul, you already have more than half the assurance."

The third tribulation of the Nascent Soul, the first tribulation is the transformation of the three aspects of essence, energy, and spirit, also known as the shattering of the pill and the transformation into an infant. Only when the transformation of essence, energy, and spirit is complete can one qualify to undergo the tribulation of thunder.

But just like a butterfly breaking free from its cocoon, once unable to break free from the constraints of the cocoon, one will suffocate within it.

The infant transformation pill assists in the tribulation of transformation.

The second tribulation is the tribulation of thunder, which tests the cultivator's strength, relying solely on the cultivator's own means.

The third tribulation is the tribulation of the mind, also known as the tribulation of the Heart's Demon. It is intangible and generally occurs during the tribulation of thunder.

Once unable to overcome it, one will be disturbed by the Heart's Demon and die directly under the thunder tribulation.

Chu Fuzhu had been imprisoned for over a year, losing all his power and constantly under the pressure of life and death. He had almost been killed by the bald Devil Monarch.

After experiencing life and death, he finally had a great realization, reconciling with his younger self and allowing his own sea of consciousness to transform, greatly increasing his Mental Energy and gaining the assurance to overcome the Heart's Demon tribulation.

Chu Fuzhu smiled bitterly, "It's just that the price is quite heavy."

As he spoke, he recounted the events of the past few years.

However, when it came to his lips, he concealed the fact that Yu Xian was a Devil Cultivator.

The main reason was that Yu Xian was very good at handling people. Although he took his Spirit Stones, he left his refined Magic Treasures, the Six Harmonies Shuttle, which had been tempered for hundreds of years, in Duan Hong's hands and did not take them away.

So he spared Duan Hong's life.

In this way, Yu Xian became a member of a mysterious and prestigious family in Chu Mansion, according to Chu Mansion's master. With the protection of a Nascent Soul True Monarch, he created a big gathering and tricked him into losing all his money.

Sure enough, without the influence of the Devil Cultivator factor, the Three Yang True Monarch only treated it as an interesting story.

He wasn't angry at all, but instead laughed heartily and was in a good mood.

"Tian Xing, as the master of a mansion and having cultivated for hundreds of years, how did you let a young and inexperienced kid play you around in circles?

This is also your own greed, and you should have faced a calamity.

Fortunately, fortune and misfortune depend on each other. Without this calamity, you wouldn't have gained what you have today. Otherwise, I would have to seek justice for you.

But that kid underestimated me. Did he really think I would be tempted by a few billion Spirit Stones? He deliberately avoided me.

Otherwise, I really want to see what kind of interesting person he is."

Anyway, since the Spirit Stones have been taken away, he can naturally boast about his own integrity. If he really had a few billion Spirit Stones in front of him, he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be tempted.

Chu Mansion's master had a bitter expression and said, "It's just that my disciple's accumulated Spirit Stones over the years are gone, and the Infant Transformation Pill is nowhere to be found."

His own Magic Treasures were still there, and his strength hadn't diminished much. His sea of consciousness was also undergoing transformation, and he had confidence in overcoming the Heart's Demon Tribulation. He had an additional 20% chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

The only thing missing was the Infant Transformation Pill, which might directly hinder his progress in the first tribulation.

The Three Yang True Monarch gave his disciple a slight glare.

"Could it be that I, as your master, am so heartless that I won't even spare a single Infant Transformation Pill? But this pill is not something I can easily give you. You have to repay it.

After you break through to the Nascent Soul stage, you will have to guard the Three Yang Peak for three hundred years."

Chu Mansion's master immediately understood something and looked shocked. "Master, you?"

The Three Yang True Monarch's expression was indifferent. "Sitting at the mountain gate for eight hundred years, even I, as your master, need to go out and seek my own opportunities.

But everything has to wait until you successfully break through. If you fail, then everything is off the table."

"As for that kid, he must be punished, otherwise anyone would dare to bully the disciples of my Xuan Yang Sect."

The Three Yang True Monarch turned to the disciple and said, "Spread my decree as the True Monarch. Anyone who can provide information about Bai Gu will be rewarded with the qualification of an Outer Sect disciple.

If they can capture Bai Gu, they will be granted a position as a direct disciple of the Three Yang Peak."

The disciple, who had lost almost half of his wealth by delivering a message, answered loudly, "I obey the command of the esteemed master!" (End of this chapter)
