Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

Autumn rain always feels like she has heard this sound before, but... No matter how she recalls, she can't remember where she heard it.

In the end, she can only consider it her own illusion.

After all, the messenger from headquarters is at least a Gold Core cultivator, and in her entire life, she has not had much contact with such people.

Moreover, those people are all elders of the Chi Yan Sect.

"Oh, right."

Just as her thoughts were wandering, the young messenger spoke again.

"You mentioned earlier that Yun Zhan is responsible for the assessment of the new guest official?"

"That's right!"

The middle-aged man responded softly.

"Take me there, I also want to see the level of the new guest official in the business."

The young man smiled lightly.

"The bustling level of Fulong City has even surpassed most of the Earth Grade main cities in Dong Cang Xuan Continent. When the demon cultivators settle in, it is feared that it will be comparable to a Heaven Grade main city."

"For the business, this is a great opportunity. Whether the business can seize this opportunity and even take a share of the pie among many forces, it still depends on the presence of everyone here!"

After hearing the young messenger's words, the middle-aged man hurriedly agreed.

"Elder Li is exaggerating. We are honored to become guest officials of the business. We will definitely do our best to repay the favor of being recognized and cultivated!"

The young man smiled and then changed the topic straightforwardly.

"Now that everyone is here, let's go and see the assessment of the new guest official together!"

"Of course, if you have something to do, feel free to go. There's no need to waste time with me."

"Yes!"

The middle-aged man responded lightly, and then Autumn Rain whispered beside him.

"Lead the way!"

Upon hearing this, Autumn Rain did not hesitate and quickly walked towards the quiet room where Ji Boying was located.

Not long after...

She led the group of guest officials and the young messenger to the front of the assessment room.

Seeing that they had arrived, the middle-aged man took a step forward and prepared to open the door.

Seeing this, Autumn Rain also felt helpless for Ji Boying.

This time, Ji Fushi's luck was really bad.

Being supervised and assessed by the messenger from headquarters, the pressure... can be imagined!

"Hold on!"

Just as the middle-aged man was about to open the door, the young messenger suddenly stopped him.

"Since the assessment is underway, we don't need to disturb them."

Only to see the young man take a step forward and extend a hand, as if lightly knocking on the door.

Under the slight tapping, ripples slowly spread in the void, shimmering like moonlight.

Gradually...

As the range of the ripples expanded, a pure white lotus bloomed within the ripples.

Pure and untainted, rising from the mud without being stained.

Everyone saw this scene and widened their eyes.

"This... is the Mirror Flower Water Moon?!"

The young man smiled calmly and waved his hand.

On the ripples and the white lotus, a layer of mist as thin as gauze appeared.

The mist came and went quickly.

When it completely dissipated, the original ripples and white lotus no longer existed, replaced by two figures.

One of them, these guest officials are not unfamiliar with. It is the manager of the business, Yun Qianshan.

As for the other young man...

If I'm not mistaken, he should be the new guest official being assessed by the business.

"What a coincidence?"

Just as everyone was marveling at the mystery of the Mirror Flower Water Moon...

The face of the young messenger suddenly became strange.

"Wait a minute, is this guest official drawing a Concealment Talisman?!"

Just then, someone suddenly spoke up.

"Concealment Talisman?!"

"He's drawing the Concealment Symbol?!"

"Who is this young man? How dare he have such arrogance?"

"To draw the Concealment Symbol during the assessment, he really doesn't know his place!"

As soon as the man's words fell, it seemed like a stone had stirred up a thousand waves, and the crowd of guests outside the room exploded.

As the most difficult and impactful symbol among the two-star talismans.

The reputation of the Concealment Symbol.

Whether one is a talisman master or not, it is not unfamiliar.

Even the young envoy, upon learning that Ji Boying was drawing the Concealment Symbol, had a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Does anyone here recognize this young talisman master?"

The young envoy looked at the crowd of guests behind him and asked with a smile.

He was now curious about Ji Boying's identity.

After all...

Being able to draw the Concealment Symbol as a two-star talisman master is rare, even in the headquarters.

As soon as he finished speaking, the guests couldn't help but start discussing.

But...

After discussing for a long time, no one recognized Ji Boying.

"Reporting to Elder Li, none of us recognize this young talisman master."

The middle-aged guest from earlier reported softly.

"It doesn't matter."

The young envoy waved his hand and didn't ask any further. Instead, he began to admire Ji Boying's talisman-making.

Although he wasn't a talisman master, he had some understanding of talismans and wouldn't be completely clueless.

As for the other guests, they also began to whisper.

"Do you think this young talisman master will succeed?"

"It's difficult. Even some three-star talisman masters don't necessarily have complete confidence in the Concealment Symbol."

"What?! Even three-star talisman masters don't have complete confidence?"

"Regardless of success or failure, this young talisman master's foundation is quite good! Especially when he outlines the spiritual patterns, he has a great style! Even I... am far inferior!"

"Indeed, his foundation is quite good, but the Concealment Symbol cannot be successfully drawn just by having a good foundation. It requires understanding of the talisman and the meaning of the spiritual patterns themselves. If the theory is lacking, even if his talisman-making technique is brilliant, it will be in vain."

---

More than an hour had passed in the blink of an eye.

Ji Boying, behind the mahogany table, had fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

Especially as time passed, even with the support of his life-saving divine talisman, Ji Boying's pressure and consumption increased exponentially.

At this moment, even the hand holding the talisman brush was trembling slightly.

Yun Qianshan, who was standing on the side watching, saw this scene and held his breath for a moment.

His nervousness was even greater than Ji Boying's.

In front of him, all the spiritual patterns on the talisman had been outlined, and only the connection of the spiritual patterns remained!

If he failed at this moment, everything he had done before would be in vain.

And with Ji Boying's current state, he obviously couldn't continue to draw a second talisman.

Thinking of this...

Yun Qianshan's hand hidden in his sleeve involuntarily clenched tightly.

As for the people outside the quiet room, after seeing Ji Boying's state, they shook their heads.

Even some of the guests who had been optimistic about Ji Boying sighed lightly at this moment.

"Youthful arrogance after all."

"Yes... He was only one step away, sigh..."

"Such a solid foundation, it's a pity. If he had chosen another talisman, he would definitely have passed the assessment."

Just as the guests were discussing, they saw Ji Boying pick up the brush again in the scene.

However, these guests only glanced briefly before withdrawing their gazes.

It was just a desperate struggle.

Connecting the spiritual patterns seemed simple, but it required a large amount of mental and spiritual energy.

And Ji Boying's trembling hand earlier had clearly reached its limit, he...

He couldn't possibly complete the final step!

However, just as they were about to shift their gaze, they saw the talisman paper in the scene suddenly start to flicker.

And the regret and disdain on the faces of the people turned into astonishment at this moment!
