Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

Not long after.

The ferry landed outside the mountains, on a misty lake.

In the middle of the lake, there was an island like a jade plate, floating independently, lush and green, with falling petals.

"Squawk, squawk."

The sound of cranes echoed, and looking up, one could see cultivators with ethereal and refined appearances riding wild cranes approaching the island.

Not only that, but occasionally, rainbow lights would fall from the distant mountains, carrying abundant spiritual energy, causing ripples to appear on the originally calm lake.

The few guests on the ferry were all shocked by what they saw!

Because...

Whether it was the cranes from before or the rainbow lights now, the aura they exuded had already reached the Gold Core stage!

After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the ferry finally docked on a reef next to the island.

Before long, a female Qi Refining cultivator hurriedly approached and respectfully said to Yun Qianshan and the others:

"Are you the manager of the Wan Dao Trading Company, Yun Qianshan?"

Yun Qianshan nodded and took out an invitation from his pocket, handing it to the female cultivator, saying:

"Wan Dao Trading Company, overseen by Manager Yun Qianshan, brings the company's guests to attend the ceremony!"

"Please follow me!"

The female cultivator returned the invitation to Yun Qianshan and briefly said before leading the group towards a nearby pavilion.

"The ceremony will begin in an hour. You can rest here or walk around the surrounding area."

"But... the walking area can only be outside the central lotus pond."

After speaking, the female cultivator bowed to the group and walked away towards the distance, preparing to welcome the next batch of guests.

Seeing the female cultivator had left, Yun Qianshan looked at Ji Boying and the others, smiling and saying:

"The ceremony will begin in an hour. I will go meet some old friends first. Guests, please make yourselves at home!"

With that, Yun Qianshan bowed to the group and then turned to Ji Boying, apologizing with his eyes, before leaving the pavilion directly.

As for the other guests, they also said they wanted to meet old friends. After bowing to each other, they bid farewell and left.

In just a few breaths of time, only Ji Boying remained in the pavilion...

Sure enough...

He was not suitable for attending this kind of gathering.

"At least there should be some fruits or spiritual tea in this pavilion, how come there's nothing..."

Ji Boying looked at the empty pavilion and couldn't help but sigh.

"Forget it, I'll just wander around."

Muttering to himself in a low voice, Ji Boying also walked towards the outside of the pavilion.

The island was not small, with pleasant scenery, much better than those so-called 5A-level scenic spots in his previous life.

Ji Boying strolled among them, quite enjoying himself.

As time passed...

More and more cultivators arrived on the island.

Moreover, most of these cultivators were at the Gold Core stage, and there were even several Nascent Soul powerhouses.

Of course, there were also quite a few at the Foundation Building stage.

However...

They were all relatively young, judging from their appearance, they were all around twenty years old.

"By the way... is my Qi Refining cultivation level a bit low?"

Ji Boying walked to the lakeside, looking at the cultivators coming and going in the distance, and couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"I mainly rely on my Qi Refining cultivation level to disguise myself now, it seems that being too low is not very good."

"Especially when my spiritual consciousness breaks through to the Gold Core stage soon, firmly establishing myself as a three-star talisman master, if I still present myself as a Qi Refining cultivator, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble."

"It seems a bit awkward to present myself as a Qi Refining cultivator at this moment."

After hesitating for a while, Ji Boying took out a Concealment Talisman from his storage bag and stuck it on the inside of his robe.

The Concealment Talisman not only concealed the fluctuations of spiritual energy on his body but also concealed the fluctuations of his blood and qi.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

It can even deceive a Gold Core cultivator with weak spiritual power!

Of course...

If the opponent's spiritual power is slightly stronger, this Concealment Talisman would be useless.

After all, it is only a two-star high-grade talisman, being able to achieve this is already quite good.

After wandering around, Ji Boying explored the entire island thoroughly.

Just as he was about to head back home, he suddenly realized that the pavilion he came from... was nowhere to be found!

Although the island is not small, it's not big enough to get lost.

In fact, even if it were bigger, Ji Boying wouldn't get lost.

But the key problem is that the island is circular, with a highly organized layout inside. There are thirty-six inner pavilions surrounding the lotus pond, and seventy-two outer pavilions!

Outside the pavilions, there are also one hundred and eighty stone platforms.

These pavilions and stone platforms are exactly the same, with no differences at all!

Ji Boying wanted to find the figures of Yun Zhanggui and the other four guest officials.

But in this vast sea of people, relying solely on the naked eye is like finding a needle in a haystack.

As for using spiritual power to find someone...

Using spiritual power to cover others is a taboo for cultivators. If he were to detect someone with a higher cultivation level than himself, it would be a case of the inferior offending the superior.

Ji Boying sighed lightly, looked around, and planned to ask someone for directions.

However...

Just as he was about to casually find a steward to ask for directions, he saw a graceful and enchanting figure standing not far away under a tree.

With just one glance, Ji Boying's mind was shaken.

It was as if all the noise around him had completely disappeared at that moment.

In its place... there was only that enchanting figure!

That figure, with its bare feet as white and smooth as jade, its clothes fluttering, and its fair and tender skin faintly visible.

As for her appearance, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes contained autumn waves, and with just a frown or a smile, she could conquer all the mountains and rivers in the world!

"Hiss..."

Ji Boying quickly withdrew his mind, a look of astonishment appearing on his face.

He forcefully pinched his thumb with his right index finger, trying to keep himself in a clear state.

Just one glance had made him lose himself in fantasies.

This kind of attraction was even more irresistible than the charm displayed by Qing Yan that day!

It should be noted that Ji Boying's spiritual power has now reached over twenty-eight thousand points.

It won't be long before he breaks through to the Gold Core stage.

But even so, the other party managed to bewitch Ji Boying without using any charm techniques.

It shows just how terrifying she is!

However, just as Ji Boying was lost in thought...

The woman slowly walked towards him.

Ji Boying wanted to avert his gaze, but... he couldn't help but want to admire her.

Like this, the woman got closer and closer, until they were less than a yard apart...

"Heh..."

The woman glanced at Ji Boying from the corner of her eye, snorted disdainfully, and then walked towards the lotus pond in the distance.

Watching her figure recede into the distance, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Ji Boying's face, visible to the naked eye.

Did he... lose control again?

This shouldn't have happened!

However, just as Ji Boying was at a loss, a voice came from behind him...
