Half a day later.

"Little Black?"

"The feeling of being watched is gone."

In a dense forest tens of thousands of miles away from the Zichen Guard camp, Lin Qingyu gazed wistfully in the direction of the valley.

From the moment she entered the main hall, Zhou Xiaohei received a warning through the contract that she had been locked onto by a powerful aura.

Lin Qingyu had no doubt that Xiao Hei could detect the spying of a high-level cultivator. After all, she had seen that terrifying giant cat before, so some supernatural abilities were understandable.

When they finally figured out who the girl in red was, all their doubts vanished.

The royal family of the Zixiao Dynasty has quite a prestigious background.

"Have you memorized Li Xinglan's aura?"

Her fingertips gently traced the soft back of the little black dog.

"Meow~ Absolutely!"

Very good, this trip wasn't a complete loss.

Not only did they obtain a detailed map of the Forest of Death, but they also established a connection with the Purple Cloud Dynasty. It's just a pity that the two spirit towers didn't find their best masters.

As for the secrets surrounding Li Xinglan...

After careful consideration, Lin Qingyu decided not to investigate for the time being, and she also did not want to stay here any longer.

Lin Qingyu tossed the token engraved with the words "Zi Chen" in her hand, thought of the promise made by the girl in red, chuckled, and then threw the token into the system space.

I'll definitely be attending the Phoenix Cry in the Purple Heaven Competition, but it's definitely not in reality. See you in the simulation...

At the same time, inside the main hall in the valley, a hoarse voice rang in the red-clad girl's ears.

"Your Highness, the aura on the token has disappeared."

"Oh?"

The girl's eyes were now bright and sharp, a far cry from her previous naive and innocent demeanor when she addressed him as her older sister.

Her fingertips tapped lightly on the newly replaced desk, and a slight smile appeared on her lips as she thought of the pure and burning desire in that woman's eyes for the spirit crystal not long ago.

"It's alright."

Regardless of who she was, the girl was certain that the other person would come, since people who love money are usually trustworthy, let alone someone who loves money so much.

"Why doesn't Your Highness allow me to capture him?"

A faint black figure quietly appeared beside the girl and knelt on one knee.

"Capture them?"

The girl glanced lazily at the dark figure.

"What's the point of capturing it? To make that cat, which can only be an accomplice, fight me to the death, and then what? What will I gain?"

The shadowy figure froze abruptly, its forehead pressed against the ground, daring not to utter another word.

"How's the investigation going with that Li Xinglan guy?"

The girl in red did not pursue the matter further.

"It may be related to the Long Night Royal Court."

The moment the name was uttered, the atmosphere in the hall seemed to freeze for a moment.

"That's a big problem."

The girl waved her hand, and the black shadow slowly disappeared into the void, leaving only a slender figure resting her chin in her hand, lost in thought.

...

Three months later, Lin Qingyu finally stood beside that familiar lake in reality.

The girl's gentle features were reflected on the clear lake surface.

She crouched down, her gaze sincerely falling on the cat and the ghost in front of her.

"Did you understand? This task is now entrusted to you."

Youyi stood quietly by her side and nodded in agreement. She had been just an ordinary woman in her previous life, so she could not find this kind of thing difficult to accept.

Zhou Xiaohei completely lost his temper.

It threw a tantrum on the ground, its meows full of protest and grievance.

They also proclaimed that the noble cat race would never do such a shameless thing!

"Ah...that's a pity."

Lin Qingyu sighed softly, seemingly unintentionally. The cat paused, instinctively perking up its ears.

"I've discovered a real dragon corpse; maybe it still has dragon marrow inside!"

"Meow!"

A dark shadow darted out with a "whoosh" and disappeared in the blink of an eye in front of the man and the ghost.

"Pfft~"

Youyi couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then she noticed a deep gaze fixed on her.

"Little Youyi, do you need your master to check your cultivation level?"

Youyi's laughter stopped abruptly, and her figure stiffened slightly.

"Whoosh~"

Shadow +1.

Lin Qingyu flashed and leaped onto a nearby tree branch, lying back on the thick trunk.

She rested her head on her arm, her gaze piercing through the gaps in the leaves, leisurely landing on the busy cat and ghost in the distance, a pleasant smile curving her lips.

Such a life isn't so bad.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

A giant turtle burst out of the water in a familiar manner, howling in mid-air, its two lantern-like eyes filled with bloodshot veins, before unleashing a barrage of indiscriminate bombardment.

After the grumbling giant turtle disappeared into the mist, a furtive figure quietly appeared at the edge of the lake and silently sank into the depths of the lake.

A moment later, Lin Qingyu looked at the familiar purple fruit in front of her, and a hint of fervor finally appeared in her eyes—this was a full hundred years of lifespan!

Just as she was patiently following the old man's instructions and carefully peeling the purple fruit, a brilliant idea suddenly popped into her mind.

If I don't eat it myself and save it for the simulation, will I gain 100 years of lifespan in each simulation?

When we collect the next type of Longevity Fruit, can we repeat this process?

Lin Qingyu was startled. Had she somehow... achieved immortality?

[Beep beep beep beep beep!]

[WARNING! Major bug detected!]

[Bug fixing in progress...]

"No? Why should I?"

Lin Qingyu angrily questioned in her heart, "This is clearly an important cultivation method that I discovered, so how can it be a bug?"

"You have to give me an explanation today, or I'll find a kitten and kill myself!!!"

[Bug fix complete]

[Regardless of whether it's in simulation or not, lifespan-type spirit creatures will not be able to eliminate drug resistance; compensation packages have been distributed.]

A compensation package?

Lin Qingyu's heart stirred, and she silently touched the golden gift box in front of her.

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained one affix upgrade card (affix limit: seven colors)]

!!!

Lin Qingyu suppressed a laugh, disregarding whether the system could see it or not, and waved the Purple Spirit Green Pattern Fruit in her hand, saying aggrievedly:

"Then you have to include my lifespan of one hundred years in the calculation."

【...】

【receive. 】

Hehehe~

At this moment, Lin Qingyu finally couldn't hold back anymore.

Regardless of whether the aforementioned theory is valid, even if "immortality" in that sense could be achieved, there are simply too many issues to consider.

The limited number of simulations and the difficulty of collecting Longevity Fruits.

Moreover, Lin Qingyu's goal was never just immortality, but the one she set for herself when she left Luofeng City—to live a carefree and immortal life.

The two are fundamentally different!

Looking at the golden card floating in front of her, Lin Qingyu suppressed her excitement and scanned the entries one by one, finally settling on the simplest yet most helpful one:

【Transformation into Dust (Gold)】

[Can conceal all one's aura (including physique, cultivation level, techniques, etc.), ignoring realm suppression]

What kind of effect would seven colors have?

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Qingyu's mind stirred, and the golden card transformed into specks of golden light, slowly merging into the entry.

The next moment, a burst of multicolored light suddenly appeared on the panel…
