Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

It is September, the beginning of autumn;

The flowing water has dried up, revealing clear cold pools;

The misty light has condensed, turning the evening mountains purple.

Ji Boying, accompanied by his two wives, steers the flying boat, deepening their emotional connection while admiring the beautiful rivers and mountains.

Since becoming a core member and completing the annual mission, Ji Boying is no longer bound by tasks, and he feels much more relaxed.

As for earning spirit stones and making a living...

Now, he only needs to make a small effort, and the spirit stones come pouring in.

Moreover, Xiao Ning'er practices the derivation of the sixth series of symbols every month.

Just by selling the talismans she refines, it is enough to support the family's expenses.

It is worth mentioning...

After taking the Creation Pill, Xiao Ning'er's water and fire dual-element spiritual roots have both advanced to the middle grade. Her cultivation has also broken through to the mid-stage of Foundation Building. Not only can she independently draw Thunder Strike Talismans, but she can also draw Demon Thunder Talismans and Water Thunder Talismans. In good condition, she can also create talismans independently.

Especially the Thunder Strike Talismans, they have reached a hundred percent quality, and even the top-grade ones account for nearly thirty percent!

There's no way around it, the heavens reward those who work hard. There is a fundamental difference between Ji Boying, who can only rely on external assistance like the Goldfinger, and those who are naturally talented.

However, Ji Boying did not let his two wives consume too much of the Creation Pill. Instead, he gave each of them one.

After all, the medicinal effect is too strong, and their foundations are still shallow. If they take too much, they might suffer backlash.

As for Ji Boying himself, he didn't take a single pill.

Mainly because he has already started to increase his spiritual roots, and he has also invested over sixty thousand attribute points. If he were to take the Creation Pill at this time and break through his already increased fire spiritual root, wouldn't all the attribute points he had previously added be in vain?

So...

Ji Boying plans to wait until his fire spiritual root breaks through to the top grade before taking the Creation Pill.

This way, he can maximize the benefits.

Buzz—

Just as Ji Boying was immersed in communication with his wives, his identity token suddenly started to flicker.

Ji Boying quickly used the Heavenly Peak Five Clouds Sword, releasing all the sword qi in his body, and then picked up the identity token.

"Mr. Ji, a new mission has been issued by the headquarters. Please come to the business hall for a meeting!" It was Wu Yuanyu who sent the message.

As Ji Boying listened to the content of the message, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Clearly, it's only September, and missions from the headquarters are usually issued in November. Why is it earlier this year?

Although he was curious in his heart, he didn't waste any time in his actions.

After apologizing to his two wives, he steered the flying boat and quickly headed towards the direction of Canglong Immortal City.

An hour later.

When Ji Boying arrived at the affairs pavilion, the conference hall was already crowded.

Ji Boying glanced at the hall and found Wu Yuanyu standing in front.

However...

Just as he was about to go over, a clear and ethereal voice sounded from behind him.

"Mr. Ji doesn't need to attend this meeting."

Ji Boying was slightly startled when he heard this, and when he turned around, he saw that Su Ling had somehow appeared behind him.

"I have already accepted the mission. Follow me."

Su Ling said briefly, then turned and walked towards the elegant room.

Not long after...

Ji Boying followed Su Ling into the elegant room.

With a wave of her hand, a ray of spiritual light passed by, and a huge map appeared in the center of the elegant room.

The map was divided into two colors, gray and white, with the gray area occupying about 70% of the map.

"This is the map of the Eastern Cangxuan Continent. The large main city surrounded by the jungle mountains to the west is the Canglong Immortal City where we are now."

"As for the gray and white areas, they represent the territories occupied by the demonic path and the righteous path, respectively."

Su Ling explained softly.

"The demonic cultivators have occupied so much territory?!" Ji Boying looked at the vast gray area, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

"Yes, and the devouring speed of the demon cultivators will continue to increase."

Su Ling nodded slightly, her clear voice echoing in the elegant room.

"According to this trend, in less than a year, nearly ninety percent of the Eastern Cang Xuan Continent will fall into the hands of the demon cultivators."

"Although the demon cultivators' takeover of the Eastern Cang Xuan Continent is already unstoppable, the headquarters cannot accept such a speed."

"Therefore, in the next period of time, the headquarters will contact the righteous sects in the Arctic Cold Continent and the Southern Cang Ming Continent, and have them allocate some of their forces to assist us in slowing down the invasion of the demon cultivators."

Upon hearing this, Ji Boying furrowed his brows and looked at Su Ling, puzzled.

"Joining forces with cultivators from two continents can only delay?"

"Then what else can we do?"

Su Ling looked at Ji Boying with some speechlessness.

"The Western Spirit Platform Continent, where the five continents' Buddhist cultivators gather to form a Buddhist country and build thirty-six palaces. Within the same realm, due to their cultivation methods and system, Buddhist cultivators have a natural suppression over demon cultivators."

"Except for the Central Continent, if there is any other continent among the four continents that can overpower the demon cultivators and prevail over evil, it must be the Western Buddhist country."

"But what is the result? The Western Spirit Platform Continent is still being devoured by the demon cultivators, and all the Buddhist cultivators, without exception, were killed."

"As the weakest existence among the four continents, why should the Eastern Cang Xuan Continent resist the demon cultivators?"

Upon hearing these words, Ji Boying fell into silence.

He...

Completely underestimated the demon cultivators.

Their strength far exceeded his imagination!

"So..."

Ji Boying looked up at Su Ling and whispered,

"Is the mission of the trading company related to stopping the demon cultivators?"

"Yes!"

Su Ling nodded slightly and said,

"All the core members of the trading company, including battle cultivators, talisman cultivators, formation cultivators, and those who cultivate in other ways that are advantageous in combat, regardless of who they are, will all go to the front line."

Upon hearing this, Ji Boying couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He was a talisman cultivator!

Doesn't that mean he has to go to the front line too?!

Just as he was worrying, Su Ling suddenly said again,

"However, Fellow Daoist Ji doesn't need to go to the front line to resist the demon cultivators."

Upon hearing Su Ling's words, Ji Boying breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he didn't have to go to the front line to fight, he could do anything!

Even if he had to spend his daily communication time making talismans, he was willing.

After all...

With Goldfinger around, as long as he was given a stable environment, becoming stronger was only a matter of time!

"So..."

Just as Ji Boying completely let go of his worries, he saw Su Ling suddenly change the topic.

"In order to better hone Fellow Daoist Ji's talisman path, I took the liberty of accepting a flanking mission on behalf of Fellow Daoist Ji."

To make Ji Boying understand her good intentions, Su Ling explained,

"If the trading company invests all its forces on the front line, it may not really be able to slow down the demon cultivators' attack speed. Therefore... we still need a flanking strategy to disperse the demon cultivators' forces with fewer forces."

"Of course, the danger and pressure of doing so are naturally greater than the front line."

"But it is more flexible, not like the front line where we have to defend one place, and there are more possibilities."

"In such an environment, it is more conducive to honing Fellow Daoist Ji's talisman path."

Damn it!

Ji Boying suppressed the impulse in his heart and tried to remain calm as he said,

"Fellow Daoist Su, can I not take on this mission?"

Su Ling smiled, a familiar cunning gleaming in her eyes.

"Of course... you can't!"
