Cultivating Immortality: What kind of cheat can you use if you don't have money?

Chapter 170 Entering the Game

Li Qingyi: "???"

The Pavilion Master's grand plan? What grand plan?

Aside from bestowing upon himself the title of Young Master, Dog Pavilion Master seems to have never mentioned any plans!

But he remained as calm as a rock, only his brows furrowed slightly as he uttered four words in a deep voice: "Not very successful."

Upon hearing this, Xuanji showed no surprise, instead displaying an "I knew it" expression, muttering to himself, "That's true—the implications are too great, the obstacles too numerous, it's not that easy. Cough—cough cough—"

"You're hiding here," Li Qingyi said, surveying the luxurious palace, "aren't you afraid the tomb keeper will find you?"

"Don't worry." Xuanji twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a roguish smile that seemed quite out of place with his identity as a Purple Mansion True Person.

"Our Listening Rain Pavilion may be lacking in other areas, but our ability to stealth, hide, and save our lives is absolutely top-notch!"

That old devil won't find me so easily.

Li Qingyi remained silent.

Is this foul-mouthed, unpretentious person really a Purple Mansion cultivator?

He stopped wasting words, took out the dark green fragment of the Xuan Turtle Mirror from his storage ring, and tossed it to Xuanji: "What exactly was the information you originally left on it? Most of it has been erased."

Xuanji took the fragment, his brows immediately furrowing: "As expected—someone used sophisticated methods to forcibly erase and disrupt the remaining information—"

He attempted to activate the fragments using his own aura.

The fragments only flashed briefly before falling silent, their spiritual essence completely gone.

Xuanji shook his head, about to say something more.

His expression suddenly changed drastically!

"not good!"

Almost simultaneously, from the deepest shadows deep within the palace, a sinister old man's voice echoed: "Only now do you realize—too late."

Li Qingyi was shocked and turned her head sharply!

From the shadows, an old man in hemp clothing stepped out.

It was the tomb keeper!

He wore a mocking smile, like a cat catching a mouse.

His gaze swept back and forth between Li Qingyi and Xuanji, who looked as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Damn it!" Xuanji reacted instantly. "Young Master! Why are you bringing the enemy home?!"

Li Qingyi fell silent.

Suddenly, Xuanji blurted out a curse, "Li Qingyi, don't you dare tell me you've been bewitched by the Purple Mansion without even realizing it!"

A buzzing sound went through Li Qingyi's mind, and she instantly understood.

Yes!

This fragment of the Xuan Turtle Mirror!

Once you obtain the fragment, your mind will inevitably be drawn to the cause and effect related to the mystery within it, and you will be guided unconsciously.

They actually returned to the place where Xuanji was hiding.

Li Qingyi said that she had nothing to do, so why would she come to Qingling City?

I was just thinking of going back to Tingyu Pavilion —

Clearly, the tomb keeper had used the fragments of the Xuan Turtle Mirror to steal his soul.

Seeing that Li Qingyi remained silent, Xuanji was completely speechless.

Seeing this, the gravedigger's smile widened, as if he were watching a meticulously staged drama: "Quick reaction. Too bad, you're already caught in the trap."

He waved his hand casually.

At the four corners of the palace, four small, gray flags flashed by.

In an instant, the entire palace was completely enveloped by an invisible barrier, isolating it from the outside world.

"Four banners, locking the sky and defining the boundaries." The tomb keeper said leisurely, "Once this formation is set up, even the Four Divine Powers in the Purple Palace will not be able to break through it for a while. You—you can stay here in peace."

Xuanji's face turned ashen as he tried to muster his remaining magical power to attack his surroundings.

The invisible barrier remained completely still.

Xuanji looked on with despair, but then looked at Li Qingyi with anticipation.

"Young Master! My Young Master! Please ask the invincible Elder Master to think of a solution!"

Last time, to save you, didn't he manage to strike from hundreds of thousands of miles away? Quickly, borrow a sword from the sect leader!

His urging was almost a wail.

The tomb keeper, who had been calm and collected, suddenly narrowed his eyes and his playful expression vanished.

His body tensed up slightly involuntarily, revealing a clear posture of vigilance.

Clearly, the fact that the Listening Rain Pavilion Master had severed the Purple Mansion with a sword from a distance had a strong deterrent effect on him.

Li Qingyi: "————"

His silence was deafening.

Li Qingyi felt like an ant on a hot pan, cold sweat beading on her forehead.

Reality is not a simulation; when you die, you really die.

If the two True Immortals of the Purple Mansion were to fight with all their might here, the aftershocks alone would be enough to crush him, a mere ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator, a hundred or more times.

"These old monsters in the Purple Mansion are all more hellish than the last one!"

He cursed inwardly.

Time passed second by second.

The earth-shattering, world-shaking sword strike that was expected did not appear.

The tomb keeper's tense body slowly relaxed, and the wariness on his face gradually faded. He chuckled, "Heh heh—it seems your all-powerful Pavilion Master is currently embroiled in trouble and too preoccupied to concern himself with matters here, is he?"

Seeing that Li Qingyi remained silent, the tomb keeper laughed even more heartily.

He stared at the two of them with great interest.

I want to see how this master and servant will react before they die.

Xuanji was extremely anxious.

"My dear young master! Stop playing around! Quickly! Quickly take out the trump card that the master left you to save your life!"

I'm seriously injured right now, let alone fighting him, I can't even escape with you using earth magic!"

Li Qingyi's forehead veins throbbed. "If I could produce it, would you need to tell me?!"

"Damn!" Xuanji's defenses were completely breached.

"Li Qingyi! As the young master of Tingyu Pavilion, don't tell me you don't have a single decent trump card?!"

Have.

But it can only deal with Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Li Qingyi couldn't bring herself to say those words.

In the end, he simply closed his eyes and sighed resignedly.

"I never imagined that I would end up dying with you."

"So be it—so be it—" Xuanji's voice was hoarse: "To die alongside the Young Master, I won't be alone on the road to the Yellow Springs. Don't worry, Young Master, even if I die, I'll die before you!"

He turned his head and glared fiercely at the gravedigger.

As the gravedigger watched this scene of deep affection between master and servant, the mockery on his face gradually faded, and he seemed to find it somewhat boring.

He shook his head, his voice returning to its indifferent tone: "In that case, I'll send you on your way."

The words fell.

The terrifying aura emanating from him, belonging to a True Person of the Purple Mansion, was no longer concealed.

An invisible spiritual pressure filled every inch of the palace.

Those luxurious decorations began to silently turn to dust.

However, a bizarre scene unfolded.

Xuanji, who had been looking tragic and ready to fight to the death, suddenly grinned and covered his mouth with his hand.

Almost simultaneously, Li Qingyi, who was standing behind him, also made the same move.

The gravedigger's poised movements suddenly froze.

He frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes: "What are you all laughing at?"

next second.

"Pfft—Hahahaha!!!"

"Hahahaha!!!"

Li Qingyi and Xuanji simultaneously lowered their hands and burst into laughter!

I laughed so hard I almost fell over, and tears were streaming down my face. It was as if I had seen the most hilarious thing in the world!

"You've been tricked! Hahahaha!"

While laughing, Xuanji suddenly pointed behind the tomb keeper and shouted sharply, "Make your move!"

The gravedigger's alarm bells were ringing wildly!

Could there really be an ambush? Is the Master of Tingyu Pavilion really here?

He instinctively turned around abruptly.

He instantly activated his divine sense and protective spiritual light to their maximum, preparing to meet the legendary sword strike from afar.

However, there was nothing behind him.

Only the palace's cold walls and flickering shadows remained.

be cheated!

Taking advantage of the tomb keeper's distraction, Xuanji grabbed Li Qingyi and tried to shrink into the void together to escape.

However, the void became indestructible.

Xuanji, carrying Li Qingyi, stumbled in mid-air, his face instantly turning extremely ugly.

"Damn! This damn formation—it even completely locks up the void?" Xuanji exclaimed in shock and anger.

As a True Person of the Purple Mansion, he was unable to budge the Four Directions Locking Formation even slightly!

"What do you mean?!"

Li Qingyi asked anxiously, his heart pounding in his chest as he acted out the scene.

"It means—" Xuanji turned his head, his voice hoarse, "Young Master, this time—I really have no other choice."

The tomb keeper, who had been thoroughly fooled, now had no expression on his face.

Only a murderous intent that sends chills down your spine.

"You two should die."

A powerful, oppressive aura descended from the Purple Palace.

Instead of retreating, Xuanji advanced, immediately standing in front of Li Qingyi and charging towards the tomb keeper.

The gravedigger exclaimed, "You're not hurt!"

Xuanji snorted coldly, "Too late to know now! Li Wuyai! Stop hiding!"

The words fell.

In the center of the palace, a third figure appeared without warning.

It was Li Wuyai, who was wearing a dragon robe.

"Finally—we've caught you, you cowardly rat hiding in the gutter."

The gravedigger's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Li Wuyai?! You—you all—"

He instantly understood.

His gaze swept over Xuanji, whose face was rosy, Li Wuyai, who was expressionless, and Li Qingyi, who breathed a sigh of relief.

"The three of you—colluded to set me up?!"

"It's too late to know now!"

Xuanji sneered, and taking advantage of the moment when the tomb guardian was shaken, he suddenly formed a hand seal, and a power that locked onto the origin of the soul emanated out.

The tomb keeper felt a sudden tightness around his body, as if he were being bound by an invisible force.

"A second supernatural power? You actually hid it!" The tomb keeper exclaimed in shock, his face showing horror for the first time.

The second supernatural power of the mystery.

Or is it a strange and troublesome binding supernatural power?

Seeing that the situation was not good, the tomb keeper immediately dispelled the formation and tried to escape.

However, would Xuanji allow him to have his way?

Xuanji unleashed his full power.

"You can really go die now!"

At the same time, Li Wuyai also made a move.

With a wave of his hand, a vast dragon aura, carrying the power of space, instantly enveloped Xuanji, the tomb keeper, and himself.

A flash of light.

The next instant, the vast palace became completely empty.

Li Qingyi was left alone, standing there all alone.

The oppressive atmosphere within the palace dissipated, leaving only a deathly silence.

Li Qingyi blinked and looked around blankly at the empty surroundings.

who am I?

Where am i?

What happened?
