My Perfect Immortal Cultivation Life

The only things Li Yu currently owns that can be connected to the primordial world are the key to the Xuanbo Sect and the replica of the Dragon Ruler he seized from Wei Lei.

"Linglong, will this Dragon-Stabilizing Ruler be of any help to you?"

Let me see...

Hmm... I can deduce it from the inscription on the dragon ruler!

This is the ultimate ability of the Exquisite Dao Heart; given just the slightest clue, she can easily deduce a great deal.

Even cultivators at the fourth or fifth realm might not be able to discern the secrets of this rare treasure from the primordial era. Yet, our Linglong only needs to analyze the Dragon Ruler to solve the mystery.

If other cultivators knew that Li Yu had this ability, they would definitely cut off his limbs and tie him up and take him back to their sect to be used as a cultivation tool for others.

Li Yu pretended to be deep in thought, but in reality, he was having Linglong decipher the last of the rare treasures.

In a pavilion of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, behind a thin veil, a pair of peach blossom eyes gazed into the distance at the main hall. These eyes were exquisitely beautiful, with slightly upturned corners and bright, clear pupils; a single glance could captivate the soul.

"Still not working? I've been hoping for the right person to appear every day, isn't today the perfect day?" A hint of disappointment appeared in those eyes.

Just as she was about to turn and leave, a huge uproar suddenly broke out in the lobby.

"It's done!"

"He actually solved it! How is that possible!"

Li Yu ignored the exclamations and praises around him; he was only interested in what was inside the bronze box.

Following Linglong's solution, he used a strange technique to rotate the blurry patterns on the box slightly. A few wisps of white gas faintly emerged from the box.

The Xuanbo Sect key in Li Yu's hand suddenly emitted a bright white light, which was fortunately blocked by his palm and sleeve.

Click.

The top of the bronze box emitted a dull, mechanical sound, and its four corners detached from the box.

"It's solved!"

Seeing the crowd about to surge forward, Li Yu knew there was no time to lose and quickly peered into the box. It was filled with bronze mechanisms, which were gradually being unraveled layer by layer. He could tell that it contained several ordinary books.

"this one?"

Li Yu frowned.

The keys to the Xuanbo Sect all reacted to it, so it shouldn't be so mediocre.

Sure enough, as if confirming Li Yu's conjecture, a faint white light appeared in the ancient text. It looked exactly like the white light of the Xuanbo Sect key.

Li Yu reacted quickly, bringing the key in his hand close to the box. Immediately, the white light from the book flew up and merged with the key.

"Sir, you have unlocked all the treasures. Please move aside." The hostess quickly walked to Li Yu's side and used her hand to separate Li Yu from the bronze box.

Li Yu didn't say much and left the spot without hesitation.

If nothing unexpected happens, he has already obtained the most precious item in the box. As for what might be a cultivation technique or something else inside, that's not so important to him anymore.

"Esteemed guest, may I ask your name? Our Miss Lingyin from Zuixianlou would like to invite you upstairs for a chat..." The hostess invited Li Yu as instructed by the tavern staff.

However, when the girl turned around, all she could see was a bustling crowd discussing something heatedly; there was no sign of Li Yu at all.

"Sir/Madam?... "

The girl looked up and gazed at the second-floor booth where Li Yu had come from.

There, only Qiu Xu smiled and raised his glass to her, and a slightly thin figure stood in the distance.

"Senior brother, the remaining rewards and Wang Bozhou's bet are all yours," Li Yu said.

"No problem," Qiu Xu never expected that Li Yu could actually unlock all ten rare treasures. "But are you really not going to see Miss Lingyin? She is the most popular singer in the outer sect. Ordinary diners, and even cultivators in the third realm, rarely get to see her true face."

Legend has it that an elder from a minor sect, at the fourth realm, once spent a fortune at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, just to catch Lingyin's smile, and never saw her again.

Li Yu laughed and said, "Senior brother, go ahead if you want to see me. I have no interest in such things."

For Li Yu, this trip to Zuixianlou was just a minor episode.

The goal was simply to contribute points. As for the conflict with Wang Bozhou, it wasn't a problem for Qiu Xu at all.

The unexpected bonus was the new clue about the Xuanbo Sect. Li Yu now planned to return to the sect to organize the clues he had obtained, as well as the cultivation techniques he had acquired previously.

Qiu Xu looked at Li Yu strangely: "I'm confirming one last time, are you really not interested in Ling Yin? This invitation from Ling Yin is a rare opportunity."

Li Yu shook his head: "Just a pink skull."

Having read so many online novels in his past life, Li Yu knew all too well that such seemingly romantic encounters often concealed great calamities. This woman might be an undercover agent from an evil sect, being hunted down by a powerful cultivator, or burdened with a deep-seated blood feud.

In short... it has absolutely nothing to do with Li Yu's plan to peacefully cultivate immortality.

With Qiu Xu here, Li Yu believed no one would dare to embezzle his reward. Furthermore, because of Qin Shengnu, Qiu Xu wouldn't reveal his identity to the outside world. Thus, it was a perfectly executed operation.

To create unnecessary complications? There's no need for that.

……

The top floor of Zuixianlou.

"Master Qiu Xu, are you really not going to tell this young lady the identity of that gentleman?" Ling Yin's face was covered by a green veil, but her charming appearance was still evident.

Qiu Xu chuckled: "He doesn't want to be disturbed."

For some reason, when Li Yu wasn't around, Qiu Xu's face no longer held that gentle and approachable expression. Nor did it reveal that underlying air of a loser.

In fact, because of Qiu Xu's performance, Li Yu sometimes forgot that he was a third-realm expert who wasn't old at all. In other small sects, he would be qualified to compete for the position of elder.

It's only because the Dao Yi Sect is full of hidden talents and their strength is unfathomable that he appears rather mediocre in comparison.

"That's truly a pity. I've always admired those exceptionally talented geniuses. I presume that young master has already been chosen as a true disciple by the elders of the Dao Yi Sect?"

Qiu Xu's face turned cold upon hearing this: "You don't need to test me. I'm here to tell you to stop all your probing activities. If you don't listen to my advice, I will consider it a challenge to the dignity of our Dao Yi Sect."

"..."

When Qiu Xu finished collecting all the rewards and left Zuixianlou...

Lingyin silently watched his retreating figure.

She asked softly, "You watched the whole thing; is that young master truly only at the first realm?"

A shadow drifted out from the corner of the room and replied in a hoarse voice, "That's right, only at the first level. Judging from his aura, he should have just entered the realm recently."

"Just started? That makes you easy to find." Lingyin relaxed. "The newly initiated disciples of Dao Yi Sect are all cultivating in the academy on Tian Guang Peak."

The talent he displayed definitely places him among the top-tier disciples.

Appearances can be faked, but talent cannot be hidden. Pay close attention to the new disciples of the Dao Yi Sect and find him. The success of our plan depends entirely on him.
