Cultivating Immortality Through a Hundred Lifetimes: I Possess the Heavenly Book of Merit

The disciples of the Luoxia Sect have been very excited these past few days.

The most prominent among them were naturally the people on Yuanfu Peak.

Other disciples may belong to the same sect, but they belong to the same immortal peak.

Even if they are sent out to other places in the future, as long as they say that they have previously been apprenticed to a celestial peak of a Core Formation cultivator, not only will they have face, but those who hear it will also become more wary.

Qi Hao and others even held a simple gathering for this occasion.

Some people came to invite Yu Yan, but he politely declined.

He had a vague feeling that things weren't going well.

Considering Wei Jing and others' actions and statements, it was hard for Yu Yan not to connect these events together.

When a secret realm emerges, it naturally attracts competition. There has been little activity in recent years, which is clearly because the two surrounding sects have joined forces to block the news, but they have secretly sent people from their sects to investigate.

Originally, everyone lived peacefully with Hongye Valley, exploring their own paths and maintaining friendly relations.

But now that the Falling Clouds Sect has obtained the Dust-Reducing Pill, their chances of forming their core are much greater.

This breaks the balance.

Hongye Valley is definitely going to turn on us!

However, the Luoxia Sect was well-prepared.

Several years ago, not only were the inner disciples of Yuanfu Peak busy, but the disciples of Lianfeng Peak, where Tian Erwa was located, were also busy. Yu Yan guessed that they were all preparing for a possible struggle.

"But what exactly is this 'temptation' that Senior Sister Wei is talking about?"

"Something that can make sect disciples disregard their own lives..."

Most of the seedlings were in high spirits, but not all of them were optimistic about the situation.

Take Luo Cheng, for example.

Ever since that day when he was struck by the peak Foundation Establishment cultivator's attack, he began planning to go out and travel to places outside Qijing Mountain, so as not to participate in the sect's affairs.

Anyway, he had this plan all along, and now it's just being brought forward.

He used to think that it would be dangerous to leave without the protection of the sect, but now he feels that staying within the sect is the most dangerous place.

Anyway, he's just a minor Qi Refining stage cultivator who can't help at all. He might as well make plans for himself. Even if something happens to the sect, he can farm spirit fields outside and escape if he hears bad news.

"Brother Yu, come with me!"

Luo Cheng extended an invitation to Yu Yan.

In his view, even if Yu Yan had good comprehension, his future with five spiritual roots was already predetermined. No matter what, he would never be able to enter the inner sect. It would be better to go out now, which would not only avoid risks but also allow him to obtain a considerable amount of spirit stones.

Moreover, Yu Yan has many talismans on him, so having such a companion when traveling will make him much safer.

"No."

Yu Yan shook his head and refused.

"You've already made arrangements with the previous senior brother 'Tian Yuan,' so bringing another person along at the last minute is bound to cause displeasure. If you've thought it through, then go ahead and pursue your own future; don't worry about me."

As he spoke, he reached into his storage bag, took out several talismans, and handed them to Luo Cheng. There were many types, including wind-moving talismans, explosive talismans, hiding talismans, water trap talismans, and so on.

There are not only types of attacks, but also talismans for escaping.

"Brother Yu, I can't accept this."

"Take it, I don't need your spirit stones."

In his mind, the merits recorded in the heavenly book increased again.

Yu Yan sighed.

"We met three years ago through our cultivation techniques. Now that we've parted, I don't know when we'll meet again. So I'm giving you a few talismans as a farewell gift. If we are destined to meet again, you can give me some of the spiritual rice that was grown back then."

Luo Cheng gripped the talisman, pursed his lips, accepted it, and nodded emphatically.

"it is good."

"Brother Yu, please don't think I'm too talkative, and please don't think I'm not repaying the kindness of the Luoxia Sect in guiding and nurturing us. But in the world of cultivation, we are ultimately just a drop in the ocean. If there is a sect's power to contend with, it's better to consider ourselves first."

"I know, I can also draw a talisman to hide in the earth. If something really happens, I can just burrow into the mountains and run away from the mountain range. The Qijing Mountains are so big, no one will bother with a nobody like me."

Hearing that Yu Yan had a plan, Luo Cheng said nothing more, but simply cupped his hands in greeting.

"Brother Yu, take care."

"treasure."

……

After seeing Luo Cheng off and watching the others apply for overseas assignments and hurriedly leave the sect, Yu Yan himself calmed down and continued to live as usual every day.

In the morning, I went to the Taoist temple to plant trees and cultivate myself. In the afternoon, I came back to eat and draw talismans.

He wasn't lying to Luo Cheng; he really had already begun learning the first-tier, mid-grade Earth Escape Talisman.

Although Wei Jing said it would be best to stay within the sect, and Yu Yan also planned to enter the inner sect, when it comes to matters of life and death, it's always necessary to have a backup plan.

If something unexpected really happens, having a way to escape is the best option.

After all, the path to immortality is arduous, and only oneself is truly reliable.

Meanwhile, the seven peak masters and Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Luoxia Sect silently gathered on the main peak and began a core meeting.

Sect Master Qingli Daoist sat on the main seat, listening to everyone report on the situation of each peak.

When it was Qinglu Daoist's turn, before the other party could speak, he asked first:

"How is Junior Brother Tao'an doing lately?"

"His condition has not improved since he emerged from seclusion, but he still applied to go to the secret realm in search of a breakthrough."

After a moment of silence, Qingli Daoist nodded to Qinglu, which was considered as tacit approval of Tao'an's request.

Back then, the two of them were brought into the sect by their master, where they learned skills together and encouraged each other.

He had already established his foundation ahead of time, but said he still had unfulfilled wishes and went down the mountain.

But after returning, he went into seclusion, and when he came out, he looked like this.

After all, he had made a mistake in his cultivation technique and didn't have much time left. Taking advantage of this surge of power might give him a glimmer of hope.

After Daoist Qinglu finished reporting the situation, the sect leader nodded and continued:

"Recently, there has been a lot of turmoil in the outside world, and the situation within the sect has also changed. Now that everyone is here, I'd like to make things clear to you."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions immediately turned serious.

Nearly three years ago, a new secret realm appeared between the Qijing Mountains and Hongye Valley.

"Originally, the two sides agreed to explore on their own and take the resources themselves, but they did not expect that the other side had long harbored ambitions. After Junior Brother Po Jian discovered the Dust-Reducing Pill, the old guy from Hongye Valley actually launched a sneak attack."

"It's also thanks to my junior brother's valiant protection that that old bastard didn't succeed."

As Qingli was about to use this to encourage everyone, she thought of the other party's current miserable state and gave up.

"With the ancestor making a move, the commotion is quite significant. This secret realm can probably no longer be kept secret."

Qing Kui, his upper body bare, appeared to have just emerged from the weapon-refining room; his entire body was flushed red. He immediately stepped forward.

"In that case, let each of us rely on our own abilities and compete with them."

"That's right, my Luoxia Sect is not to be trifled with. Besides, we were prepared long ago."

Qingli pressed her hand, signaling everyone to calm down.

"I had the same idea without you all saying it, but Hongye Valley had already spread the news that our ancestor was about to break through long before us. Someone in the sect must guard the area, repair and strengthen the formation, and prevent villains from causing trouble."

"Furthermore, Xingjian Pavilion and Tianqian Valley have stipulated that we are only allowed to send disciples below the Foundation Establishment stage to fight each other, in order to avoid the impact from spreading."

"Therefore, I have decided to bring forward the disciple recruitment that was originally scheduled for a month later. Anyone below the Foundation Establishment stage who is confident in themselves and wants to try their luck in the secret realm can sign up to go."

As he spoke, Daoist Qingli looked at Qinglu.

"Since Junior Brother Tao'an is willing to go, then let him lead the team. You will be in charge of this matter."

"Yes."
