Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

The square in front of the conference hall.

Lu Qinghan's eyes, as sharp as a blade, were fixed on Ji Boying, who was still meditating in the main hall.

One-third of the one-month assessment period has already passed.

According to the report Su Xiao gave her, Ji Boying has not drawn a single talisman in the past ten days. Every day, he either studies talisman scriptures or meditates to rest.

Faced with this assessment, it seems that he has chosen to give up directly.

After observing at the door for several hours and seeing that Ji Boying still showed no intention of starting, Lu Qinghan coldly snorted and left directly.

Su Xiao, who was standing next to the gate, also breathed a sigh of relief when the Lord finally left.

After Lu Qinghan heard the report, she could clearly feel the air around her beginning to condense and compress.

Although Lu Qinghan did not deliberately release her spiritual pressure, as a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, she still felt a strong sense of suffocation and oppression.

Fortunately, Lu Qinghan only stayed for a few hours and did not specifically target him.

Otherwise...

In a little while, he would probably be directly crushed to the ground by this invisible pressure.

"So this is the aura of a peak expert in the Return to Void stage?"

Su Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a bitter smile, "It's really not something my little Nascent Soul can bear..."

Thinking of this, Su Xiao couldn't help but look towards Ji Boying in the main hall, his eyes filled with a hint of regret and helplessness.

After several inquiries from Lu Qinghan, he can now basically confirm...

The reason why Lu Qinghan was so angry that day originated from Ji Boying!

Just as he was about to withdraw his gaze and summarize Ji Boying's situation...

In the main hall, Ji Boying, who had been motionless all this time, finally picked up the talisman pen on the table in front of him.

Su Xiao was first stunned, then fiercely rubbed his eyes, making sure that his blurred vision was not caused by the overwhelming pressure from Lu Qinghan, and quickly crossed out the summary behind.

I saw...

At this moment, Ji Boying slightly mobilized the spiritual power in his body, and then took out a piece of talisman paper from the side, starting to outline spiritual patterns on it.

Although he had only been in contact with the Three Pure Thunder Talisman for less than two years, he had practiced thousands of times during these two years!

He remembered every compound character, every spiritual pattern, every cloud seal, and every spiritual diagram clearly!

And they were all deeply engraved in his bones!

Just like this...

After only about three hours, a violent and heavy thunderous aura began to surge and rise in the main hall!

Ji Boying casually used a strand of sword qi to suppress the thunderous power on the talisman paper.

Looking at the talisman paper with faint electric currents flickering on it, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Crane Quality Jade Clear Thunder Talisman!

Success on the first try!

"After mastering these three talisman scriptures, my talisman skills have indeed improved a lot. Even the Jade Clear Thunder Talisman, which I am least good at, can now achieve a high-quality finish on the first drawing, and it only took a little over three hours! It's nearly four times faster than before!"

Ji Boying murmured, then took out the second piece of talisman paper, made some adjustments, and began to draw with the pen.

Still the Jade Clear Thunder Talisman!

He wanted to see how high the rate of high-quality talismans could reach when he was completely in the zone...

---

In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed.

Su Xiao stared intently at Ji Boying, who was concentrating on making talismans in the main hall.

In these ten days, Ji Boying has drawn a total of thirty-five Three Pure Thunder Talismans, with a success rate of one hundred percent!

Among them, eleven were high-quality talismans, and two were top-quality talismans!

The two combined, it's already close to forty percent!

And...

According to Ji Boying's current momentum, not only is his symbol-making speed getting faster, but his quality rate also seems to be steadily improving!

"Tsk tsk... This talent in symbol dao is almost catching up to Ling'er."

"No wonder the Grand Hall Master has listed him as a potential successor!"

While carefully observing Ji Boying, Su Xiao sighed inwardly.

"It's just a pity..."

"The Hall Master hasn't come to ask me about the situation for a while. Otherwise, he would be delighted to know that Ji Boying has such a high quality rate, right?"

Meanwhile...

Inside Lingbao City.

After nearly two months of running around, Yun Qianshan finally obtained the facade selected by Ji Boying from the City Lord's Mansion.

Moreover, according to the City Lord's Mansion's plan, this piece of land will be renovated in no more than half a year.

And once the renovation starts, it will be completed within a month at most.

After completing these procedures, Yun Qianshan originally wanted to inform Ji Boying, but...

He found out when he arrived at Ji Boying's residence that Ji Boying was not in the courtyard at all. Moreover, according to the girls next door, Ji Boying seemed to have been taken away by the headquarters about a month ago.

Helpless, Yun Qianshan could only leave a simple message for Ji Boying and immediately start arranging the materials and the symbol masters, pill masters, and artifact masters needed for the three shops.

On this day...

Just as Yun Qianshan was about to invite an artifact master to have a detailed discussion in a restaurant, he received a message from the City Lord's Mansion on the communication jade talisman.

It said that the piece of land he had set his sights on earlier had been taken by a genius from a certain major sect. The other party was willing to pay double the rent as compensation and asked him to come over quickly.

Towards the end of the message, the City Lord's Mansion deliberately left a reminder.

The other party has a great background, don't miss the appointment!

After seeing the message, Yun Qianshan could only apologize to the artifact master and hurriedly rushed to the City Lord's Mansion.

Because during this period, Yun Qianshan had come to the City Lord's Mansion every few days to handle related procedures or discuss the land matter. In addition, recruiting people also required posting recruitment notices at the City Lord's Mansion, so...

The receptionists in the City Lord's Mansion's reception hall were quite familiar with Yun Qianshan, this Gold Core cultivator.

As soon as he entered, a female receptionist quickly walked towards him with a professional and polite smile, saying:

"Mr. Yun, Manager Wu and the guest are already waiting in the elegant room. Please follow me!"

Yun Qianshan nodded slightly and followed the female receptionist into the elegant room.

Sitting in the main seat was a middle-aged cultivator dressed in a brocade robe, holding a cup and sipping tea. Only a glimpse of his chin with a goatee could be seen, while his face was blocked by the cup, making it unclear. As for his cultivation... it was also Gold Core, but in the late stage of Gold Core.

Being able to sit in the main seat, this middle-aged cultivator's background was probably not simple.

After all, when negotiating the land with Manager Wu before, he was sitting in a lower position and had to be humble, unlike the arrogance of this middle-aged cultivator!

Yun Qianshan withdrew his gaze and glanced at the person sitting in the guest seat next to him.

It was the Manager Wu mentioned by the female receptionist.

He also appeared to be in his forties or fifties, but his cultivation was in the late stage of Nascent Soul, and his actual age was probably not less than three to four hundred years old.

"Shopkeeper Yun is here!"

Seeing Yun Qianshan, Manager Wu quickly pointed to the seat opposite him and smiled, "Please have a seat first!"

"Yes!"

Yun Qianshan bowed to Manager Wu and then headed towards the indicated seat.

However, just as he was about to sit down...

The middle-aged cultivator in the main seat suddenly spoke.

"Is it Yun Qianshan, Junior Brother Yun?!"
