Why is my Hundred Lifetimes Book different?

I'll kill you once, and I'll repay you once more!

Ren Qingshan looked at Pang Feihong, feeling neither sorrow nor joy.

You kill me, I kill you... This is a common occurrence on the path of immortals.

However, he possessed the Book of a Hundred Deaths.

Next, Ren Qingshan proceeded step by step: discovering the Qingxuan Iron Vein, conflicts of interest arose, he swiftly killed his enemies, returned to Tiandu, met Jin Wujiu, received a calligraphy gift, and passed the test safely.

However, this time, Ren Qingshan asked for other information.

"I have a question for you, sir. Could you tell us about Tianxu?"

He already understood the complete path of Qi cultivation.

Take this opportunity to inquire about the unknown Heavenly Ruins.

"You want to go to Tianxu?"

Jin Wujiu frowned slightly, seemingly displeased. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Tianxu is extremely dangerous, and there are three dangers."

"Firstly, the timing of events changes every seven years, and when Heaven unleashes its killing intent, chaos ensues."

"Secondly, the earth's mechanism changes every twelve years, unleashing deadly intent that causes countless deaths and injuries."

"Thirdly, people are driven by murderous intent, and there is no order in the Heavenly Ruins. In addition to the cultivators of my Immortal Sect, there are also many heretical sects, demons and evil spirits, strange people and monsters... It is also a battlefield for great cultivators."

"With your Qi Refining Level 4 cultivation, your chances of surviving in the Heavenly Ruins are less than one in a hundred."

"Don't listen to those cultivators' nonsense. They say the Heavenly Ruins offer both opportunities and dangers. The dangers are real, but as for the opportunities... they're just bait for powerful cultivators!"

"Especially since you have the Limitless Spiritual Root, once you arrive at the Heavenly Ruins, it won't be long before you become a spirit slave."

Jin Wujiu's tone was stern.

As Ren Qingshan listened to these words, his anticipation only grew stronger.

Danger is the same everywhere; there's no essential difference.

For me, with the Book of a Hundred Deaths and the vast worldly energy at my side, I feel like a fish in water in places with no order.

Within the Immortal Sect, due to the sect's order, powerful families, and especially one's own family members, one is often constrained in various ways.

As a scion of a prominent family, Jin Wujiu naturally had no shortage of cultivation resources and had no need to take risks. It was perfectly normal for him to have a subjective prejudice against Tianxu.

"Our unit is in Tianxu. Do we have any missions?"

Everything can be discussed. If you can persuade and move him, then there is nothing wrong with it.

"have!"

"Thirty went in last year, only two came back. One went insane, and the other's cultivation level dropped by more than half... Ren Qingshan, how many heads do you have?"

Jin Wujiu was disappointed in his son's lack of progress.

"Haha, of course there's only one head, but fortune favors the bold. If there are any Heavenly Ruins missions in the future, I'll volunteer. And Brother Yao too."

Li Yao waved his hand instinctively, "Don't take me! I'm not going!"

But he never said it aloud.

"Fortune favors the bold?"

"You only know this half of the saying, but you don't know the other three: 'Fortune and wealth are sought amidst danger, and also lost amidst danger; when you succeed, one in ten; when you lose, nine in ten!"

"Think about it again. Take my calligraphy and go back to your hometown."

"And this gold contract!"

Jin Wujiu threw the gold contract back again and instructed the two men to clean up the mess.

……

After leaving the Ten Directions Walking Department, Ren Qingshan, holding the golden contract, went to the small courtyard again.

The Heaven and Earth Longevity Protection Array Talisman has been obtained by myself.

This time, Ren Qingshan safely took over the courtyard.

This array talisman... is sixth-grade!

They truly deserve the name "Guardian of the Home".

There is only one unpleasant aspect: everyone within the formation, regardless of friend or foe, will face the blow of a Foundation Establishment cultivator's self-destruction, succumbing to the ravages of time.

Its deterrent effect should come first.

If it really explodes, it means they've made a firm decision to perish together with each other.

Moreover, the base of the array cannot be moved.

It's not very useful in real-time combat; its purpose is to protect the home base.

However, I can learn these array patterns and their refining methods as a way to make money.

Pang Feihong is quite wealthy, which may be related to this sixth-grade array talisman.

Ok?

When they first met, Jin Wujiu mentioned that Pang Feihong had a family secret technique. Could it be this formation?

But if he knew that Pang Feihong knew this formation, why did he still ask me to handle the aftermath and take over this courtyard? What was his motive?

Suddenly remembering this, Ren Qingshan's thoughts churned, and a cool sensation spread across his skin.

Several possibilities:

First, Jin Wujiu didn't pay attention and didn't know that Pang Feihong would set up this formation at home.

Secondly, the family secret technique of Pang Feihong that Jin Wujiu mentioned in his introduction was not this sixth-grade array talisman.

Third, Jin Wujiu was merely watching the show, observing his subordinates' infighting and life-or-death struggles, which had nothing to do with him.

The probability decreases in that order.

"I hope I'm just overthinking it."

Ren Qingshan suppressed the thought for the time being, after all, he couldn't ask Jin Wujiu in person.

……

With a creak.

Li Yao slowly pushed open the door.

Upon seeing the table full of memorial tablets in the main room, and the wooden figure kneeling in front of the table, Li Yao exclaimed in surprise.

"Qingshan, come quick!"

Ren Qingshan entered the room and was slightly startled upon seeing the scene.

The Pang family...

Looking closely at these memorial tablets, one could see that they were all the names of the ancestors of the Pang family. Their cultivation levels were not clearly written, but judging from the number of tablets, it was indeed a large family with nearly a hundred members.

Could it be that the Pang family once encountered a powerful enemy, but had no choice but to use this sixth-grade array talisman because they were bound to the heavens and earth?

Pang Feihong was the backup plan that allowed the Pang family to escape by sheer luck.

Looking at the wooden figure again, it was kneeling on the ground with many wounds on its body, clearly an act of venting anger; it must be an enemy of the Pang family.

On the front of the wooden figure, on its forehead, are five characters clearly engraved: "Old Dog Fang Tianxing".

Fang Tianxing?

Ren Qingshan instantly recalled the cause of his death when he condensed the remnant seal earlier: the original owner of the Pangu Great Strength Visualization Method, the Fang family patriarch, a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

The Pang family was actually slaughtered by him?

The Fang family killed the Pang family.

He was killed by the Zhao family again.

The entire Zhao family died.

As Ren Qingshan imagined this period of history, he felt a surge of emotion.

People are fighting!

Families are also vying for power!

If we don't advance, we retreat, and we die.

How cruel is this world of great strife?

……

So, this is probably the reason why Pang Feihong practiced the Pangu Great Strength Visualization Method.

—Use your enemy's supernatural powers to seek revenge, pay for your blood debts in blood, that is the ultimate revenge!

"Why?"

"There's also a jade slip!"

At this time.

Li Yao found a jade slip under a memorial tablet.

Upon hearing this, Ren Qingshan immediately panicked: "Don't move! Don't move!"

Last time, it was because he messed with the array talismans that it exploded.

They're moving again this time!

Li Yao hesitated, but ultimately stopped.

Ren Qingshan now enjoys high prestige in his eyes.

Ren Qingshan looked at the blue jade slip.

Judging from its form, it is not an array symbol, but a jade slip for recording, and it does not show any spiritual energy fluctuations.

If you place it under your own ancestral tablet, it probably won't explode, right?

Thinking this through, Ren Qingshan cautiously chose to spare a portion of his divine sense to gently investigate.

He let out a long sigh.

This is a secret technique.

It is titled "The Golden Stone Returning to the Origin Technique".

Its effect is to refine and restore incomplete, damaged, and abandoned spiritual artifacts, as well as unrefined spiritual ores, using special secret methods, into the purest spiritual materials themselves.

This……

Collecting scrap?

No wonder Jin Wujiu didn't mention it when he introduced it. This kind of secret method should be very effective, but for someone from a prominent family like him, it was probably not respectable.

The reason why Pang Feihong was so excited when he saw the mine and wanted to take it for himself was partly due to his nature, but also probably because he was greedy and eager to hunt.

After collecting a lot of junk, I finally discovered a complete mineral vein...

Just thinking about that feeling makes it hard to control oneself.

However, for the Ren family at present, this method can be said to be the foundation of their clan!

A sure-fire way to make money!

……

"What is Qingshan?"

Li Yao pressed for answers, showing great curiosity.

"Would you like to see the Pang family's secret technique?"

Ren Qingshan handed it to him casually.

This kind of business is not afraid of competition. It is unclear what Li Yao's family does, but he comes from the sea.

Li Yao read it with his divine sense and found it somewhat magical, but since it couldn't improve his strength, he lost interest.

"What a piece of junk!"

"Return the secret technique!"

"No wonder the man surnamed Pang is so stingy; it turns out it's due to his family's tradition of stinginess!"

These are rather sarcastic remarks...

Ren Qingshan's lips twitched slightly.

For some reason, I recalled the vow they made when they swore brotherhood that day: "We do not ask to be born on the same day, in the same month, in the same year, but we ask to die on the same day, in the same month, in the same year..."

Only a sigh remained in my heart.
