Why is my Hundred Lifetimes Book different?

Ren Qingshan looked at Liang Hongchan, thought for a moment, and then said, "If I'm still alive in three days, I'll treat you to a drink."

The Liang family, after all, is a Foundation Establishment family.

I may not be able to navigate between the Jin and Liang families successfully, but having another friend from the Liang family is never a bad thing.

As for... feelings...

Actually, it's obvious that the other person still harbors a faint affection for you.

But for me right now, those two words are truly a luxury.

"good!"

Liang Hongchan responded, and was about to say something more when she saw the other person turn around and urgently asked, "Hey, do you know where to find me?"

"If you can find me now, you'll be even more able to find me in three days."

Ren Qingshan responded with a slight upturn of the corners of his mouth.

Liang Hongchan rolled her eyes at him. Where did he get such a self-righteous attitude?

He gritted his teeth inwardly, but reached out and took off the blue jade pendant from his waist. With a flick of his finger, the jade pendant flew towards Ren Qingshan.

"This is the Taiyi Divine Light Jade, a protective item bestowed upon me by my grandmother. Please lend it to me!"

After saying that, she turned and left, giving Ren Qingshan no room to refuse.

Ren Qingshan was slightly taken aback.

Holding the piece of jade, still warm from his body, he watched her hurried departure, shook his head with a smile, and got up to return to his quiet room.

……

Taiyi Divine Light?

When Ren Qingshan probed the jade with his divine sense, he immediately discovered that it contained only a single thought.

This idea, about the size of a fist, shaped like an octagon, was sparkling with spiritual light and extremely profound.

The moment his divine sense entered, it was expelled, which was extremely domineering.

As for its power...

Those things that Liang Hongchan kept as personal belongings were probably not bad.

"What treasures will the Zheng family bring out this time?"

as well as……

In such a battle, could I display my superhuman speed in breaking through barriers and escaping to kill?

This supernatural power was obtained from the Dark Night Golden Falcon, which was the mount of Li Jianfeng, a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

He was killed once by the Dark Night Golden Falcon, who stole his supernatural powers, but the aftermath of this incident is unknown, and he has never seen the falcon again.

Once this supernatural ability is used, it's unlikely that no one will recognize it. We shouldn't take any chances. If Li Jianfeng goes to watch the battle tomorrow, the consequences could be unpredictable.

Moreover, the fact that a cultivator who has not yet condensed his true seal possesses the innate divine abilities of a demon beast will inevitably arouse suspicion among those with ulterior motives.

Can I keep my secret?

Another secret is the hilt of this broken sword.

It's hard to say.

Although disguised by Moonlit Wisdom Silver, its sense of annihilation was far beyond that of an ordinary Moonlit Wisdom Silver sword.

These two techniques are currently my strongest offensive methods.

However... these are all secrets.

Exposed in public?

After much deliberation, Ren Qingshan secretly categorized all his secrets into different levels.

The Book of One Hundred Deaths: Top Secret.

Swiftly breaking through barriers and escaping to kill—Level One Secret.

Broken Sword, Myriad Worlds of Mortal Qi, Level Two Secret.

The Broken Sword was obtained from Xueyuan, and the Myriad Worlds Qi was obtained from Zhuge Sheng. These two items have little to do with the Book of a Hundred Deaths.

Even if interrogated, one can choose an opportune moment to reveal the truth, provided one does not want to waste a page of the "Hundred Deaths Book".

"Oh, right, there's one more thing."

"Besides the two from the Zheng family, there are two more. Deal with them first before this fight! To avoid further trouble!"

……

Thinking about these things.

Ren Qingshan immediately sent a message to Jin Wujiu using his waist token, asking him to accompany him on a trip.

If I leave Tiandu City alone now, what if I am ambushed and killed by the Zheng family's top cultivators?

Jin Wujiu was both amused and exasperated after hearing Ren Qingshan's explanation.

This Ren Qingshan is truly a master at seizing opportunities, but... he agreed.

So the two of them went out of the city together.

……

"If I kill Zheng Yi, what trouble will happen to my Ren family?"

During the flight towards the overseas Fang family, Ren Qingshan asked in a deep voice.

Family is always a huge constraint, but one cannot decide one's own origins.

"For a Foundation Establishment family to attack a mortal, even the Zheng family would lose face."

"Even if we take a step back and say that your Ren family has benefited from the opportunities you brought, it is only right that every member of the family should be aware that they have been implicated by you and died for the family."

"It's not that I'm cold-blooded; this is the first rule of every top-tier family, especially Foundation Establishment families."

"The most common way to deal with this is to expand our branches. For example, my Jin family currently has eleven branches, including the main branch, the branch branches, the hidden branches, and even one branch in the Heavenly Ruins. Other aristocratic families are much the same."

Ren Qingshan's brows remained furrowed.

"You expect me to entrust the lives of my people to the Zheng family's reputation?"

Is this how suicide squad members are treated?

Jin Wujiu sensed his firmness, thought for a moment, and then changed his tune.

"I can provide your family with a house in Tiandu City and bring them here. They'll definitely be safe in Tiandu City. But without being tempered by blood and fire, your Ren family will just be a pile of loose sand. What's the point of raising a bunch of parasites who only eat and do no work?"

"Besides, your father has already begun his cultivation. With cultivation comes all sorts of troubles. If he works for the Immortal Sect in the future, and if he happens to be involved in something, and if the Zheng family is still around, he will definitely be suppressed by the Zheng family and possibly imprisoned in the Immortal Prison. How long can you protect him?"

"Unless you reach the Foundation Establishment stage. However, even if you do reach the Foundation Establishment stage, there are still beings stronger than you, and the battles will be even more brutal than they are now. The slightest mistake could lead to the annihilation of your entire clan."

"Ren Qingshan, the path to enlightenment is as heavy as a mountain; to reach the summit, one must bear its weight! This applies to individuals, and equally to families!"

Ren Qingshan gave him a deep look.

"Been taught a lesson."

"But please arrange for the house now. Also, send someone to Shanyang County right now. I want to invite my mother over to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet."

"If I die, this will be the last time I see you."

Of course, I won't die.

But, that's still the way it is.

Jin Wujiu was speechless for a moment, but then he couldn't help but chuckle softly.

This kid is quite interesting.

This request is reasonable.

Amidst the howling wind, Ren Qingshan quickly wrote a letter and handed it to Jin Wujiu.

Then he sent someone to deliver the message to his father in Shanyang through the channels of the Ten Directions Travelers.

The family in Zhenbei City is still in secrecy. Judging from Liang Hongchan's reaction, she hasn't found out yet, so let's leave it as it is for now.

……

The endless sea is magnificent.

It was dusk.

As the sun was about to set, it illuminated the azure sea, making it shimmer and sparkle.

Following the trail of the remaining marks, Ren Qingshan arrived at the Fang family's residence.

Jin Wujiu concealed himself and secretly watched over the enemy.

This is a lush little island, with array formations blocking its way and cultivators patrolling around it.

Ren Qingshan saw the patrolling cultivator and stepped forward to bow: "My name is Ren Qingshan, and I practice the Pangu Great Strength Visualization Method. Please have your fellow cultivator from the Fang family come out!"

The three patrolling cultivators looked extremely grim upon hearing this.

They didn't say much, and someone immediately went in to report.

Not long after.

An elderly man with white hair and beard came out together with a young monk.

The old man stared intently at Ren Qingshan, his gaze sharp as a knife, a mixture of wariness, envy, and hatred!

"You're Ren Qingshan?"

"Has the Pangu Great Strength Visualization Technique been perfected, and even left behind a fragmentary imprint?"

Fang Li spoke slowly, a hint of defeat in his brows, but his eyes revealed a determination to die for his cause.

"good."

"Come and fight me!"

The Fang family's fate confirms what Jin Wujiu just said: even the Fang family patriarch, Fang Tianxing, could never have imagined that his Foundation Establishment Blood Curse would kill his own family members many years later.

The Great Way is truly ruthless!

"Ren Qingshan, could you tell my Fang family the secret of the Pangu Great Strength Visualization Method, which condenses the remaining seals?"

"Over the years, our Fang family has lost nine members to this matter. Only by obtaining this secret can we bring them peace in heaven!"

"If you tell me, I, Fang Li, am willing to commit suicide immediately!"

"My Fang family also owes you a great debt! We swear by our ancestors that if we ever betray this debt, may our lineage be cut off!"

"Now that you have solidified your remaining imprint, we will not contend with you anymore. Perhaps, after you pass away, if the opportunity arises, our Fang family will still have a chance..."

Ren Qingshan frowned slightly upon hearing this.

To obtain a secret, are people willing to pay with their lives?

The Fang family's cohesion is truly formidable.

only……
