My Daoist partner helps me cultivate immortality

Ji Xuan was stunned when he discovered that the square crowns on the heads of the three great shamans were the ones used by the shaman clan when they became apprentices.

Three cultivators at the Tribulation Transcending stage actually sought out Lin Ye to become their disciple!

And they did it so efficiently, shameless!

Ji Xuan's expression changed drastically.

'The future of my demon race is bleak!'

As Dijiang passed by her, he glanced at her with an ambiguous look before turning away.

Ji Xuan watched helplessly as the three figures disappeared into the distance.

If you call them shameless, you can't really find anything wrong with them. The witch clan has always shown closeness to the demon clan by accepting them as their teachers, so it's not considered taboo.

There is a story behind this.

Legend has it that during the ancient Lich Wars, a pair of Lich and Demon cultivators who admired each other expressed their respect by becoming disciples—though they were not related by blood, they could form the closest relationship outside of blood ties.

These three old men went to great lengths to curry favor with Lin Ye.

Ji Xuan thought angrily, then looked at Gongshu Yan: "Child, we can't fall behind the Wu tribe!"

Bai Huang glanced at her and took the lead, saying, "Come with me."

Gongshu Yan followed the White Emperor through the Vermilion Bird Clan's territory with light steps. The pavilions and towers carved from crimson crystals, adorned with dragons and phoenixes, shone brightly, tall and solemn.

Seemingly realizing that Gongshu Yan, who had just been released from prison, was in high spirits, Bai Huang slowed down slightly and transmitted his voice, "Ye Zi, let's meet in the square."

Lin Ye said, "They've arrived."

Gongshu Yan was so captivated by the scenery around him that he didn't even realize Lin Ye was standing beside him.

She looked left and right, and as she went deeper, a road paved with fiery red glass appeared before her. On both sides of the road, rare flame spirit trees were planted, with faint firelight on the edges of their leaves, and occasionally, agile red spirit birds would dance gracefully on the branches.

Ji Xuan was about to speak when Lin Ye, finding it amusing, made a shushing gesture.

Continuing forward, the group passed through several meticulously arranged gardens. In these gardens, not only did babbling streams meander around the rocks, but also various fire-elemental spirit flowers competed for beauty, their petals seemingly containing faint flame fluctuations. Gongshu Yan couldn't help but comment, "The entire clan territory is red, and it's also very hot."

"But it's still quite pretty..."

Finally, the demon group passed through the bustling sect area and arrived at the corridor leading to the Five Virtues Hall. Gongshu Yan looked up at the tall mansion in front of him, his expression darkening: "Is the future leader of the three races alliance inside?"

Lin Ye said to her, "I've already come here to talk about my father's affairs."

Gongshu Yan was clearly stunned.

Then, as if suddenly realizing something, she exclaimed, "...Ah! We've arrived...!"

Lin Ye greeted him with a smile: "Master Gongshu, I've heard so much about you."

Gongshu Yan hurriedly returned the greeting, saying, "You are the saint of weapon crafting in this era, how can I possibly be worthy of such a title!"

Lin Ye glanced at Xue Ying, who was tied up, and said, "Why is there an unexpected guest here?"

"No...don't kill me..."

“You said before that you wouldn’t let me set foot in the Myriad Immortals Alliance, and you’ve kept your word, since this is the territory of the Vermilion Bird Clan.”

Xueying said awkwardly, her shapely curves were even more clearly outlined because she was bound.

Xueying was already fair-skinned, and now, with her body covered in a light sweat, it was as if she had been coated with a layer of glossy glaze. Her delicate and shapely skin looked warm, bright, and full.

"Stop being so cheeky," Lin Ye said.

Gongshu Yan smiled and said, "This person is unimportant, ignore him..."

"Immortal Lin, I also have some ideas about immortal artifacts. Would you like to take a look?"

Lin Ye raised an eyebrow: "Master Gongshu is willing to share? I won't say anything more. If it's suitable, I can refine it with you. Bring it here quickly!"

Unexpectedly, he agreed so readily. Gongshu Yan was overjoyed, his eyes shining. He took out a yellowed book from his bosom and handed it to Lin Ye.

Chapter 560 Starship, a Mantis Trying to Stop a Chariot

As Lin Ye looked at the map, he took out a blueprint and handed it to Gongshu Yan.

Gongshu Yan flipped through it, surprised, and exclaimed, "What is this...?"

Gongshu Yan watched intently, and soon his cheeks flushed slightly, and a thin wisp of steam rose from his body, causing even his spiritual energy circulation to become unintentionally disordered.

"A hundred-refinement..." Gongshu Yan was dumbfounded. "A hundred-refinement immortal artifact!"

"You cow!"

"Lin Ye, you're amazing! So there was this draft all along, I knew it..."

Gongshu Yan swallowed the rest of her words. Although she was under house arrest, she was not completely unaware of the outside world.

She was the only person in the world who knew that Lin Ye had taken a lot of kickbacks on the materials for immortal artifacts—the amount clearly didn't add up!

However, Gongshu Yan did not reveal this matter, but planned to slowly probe when he came into contact with Lin Ye in the future, and never rashly expose it.

Clearly, Gongshu Yan, who had died once in his previous life, was much more cautious.

However, at this moment, she suddenly found a reasonable explanation: the reason why so many immortal artifact materials were withheld was for the grand plan of [Hundred Refinements of Immortal Artifacts]... No wonder, no wonder!

Upon seeing this plan, Gongshu Yan was so impressed with Lin Ye that he almost prostrated himself before him.

"I...I want to join, is that okay?"

Master Gongshu's fingertips trembled slightly as he looked at Lin Ye with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

After all, she was his master in this life. Seeing her approval, Lin Ye was quite satisfied. He patted Gongshu Yan's blueprints with the back of his hand and nodded, saying, "Master Gongshu, of course you are welcome to join us!"

"Then I won't stand on ceremony..." Gongshu Yan beamed with joy, immediately lay down on the ground, and took out a draft to check his calculations.

Gongshu Yan's addition is a great boost to the Hundred Refinements Immortal Artifact Project. Lin Ye thought of her the moment he saw the plan.

Refining immortal artifacts is too difficult; he needs a helper.

The easiest way is for two people to create a draft and then have the other two people complete it.

Moreover, the initial draft of this plan was partly created by Chu Lian'er and partly by Gongshu Yan—perfect for Gongshu Yan II to continue the part he gave to his master, which would surely double the efficiency!

Moreover... Lin Ye's gaze fell on the blueprints in his hand.

Master Gongshu – she's called Master because she's not a master in this life. She already has the idea for twelve kinds of immortal artifacts, and they all seem quite reliable, requiring only a few improvements.

Even compared to the creators of immortal artifacts throughout history, he is definitely a being with endless inspiration.

It filled many of the holes in the refined immortal artifact in one go.

Moreover, among these designs for magical artifacts, there are as many as five different types of flying boats.

Lin Ye's gaze shifted.

It seems Master Gongshu harbors a deep-seated regret about not being able to board the flying boat that left the Qingyang Sect in his previous life...

However, flying boats are arguably the most difficult to make among all the magical artifacts of the classical era, and they also cost a great deal of money.

Is it really appropriate to use this as an intermediate form of a refined immortal artifact?

There simply aren't that many materials...

'However, if we could develop a celestial-grade "inferior-than-excellent" weapon, perhaps we could give it a try.'

'A high-specification intermediate form will ultimately have a positive impact on the final product.'

'Could the finished product also be a flying boat?'

'Using the two primordial spirit orbs as the core of a starship... that's not impossible. A scalable starship can be used as a personal weapon; when shrunk down, it can be used as a floating cannon.'

'However, the Primal Spirit Pearl is so hard, it's a bit of a waste not to display it outside... How about a starship with an external energy storage compartment?'

Lin Ye didn't have a definite idea for the final product of the Hundred Refined Immortal Artifact, but after seeing Master Gongshu's flying boat design, he did have some inspiration.

Lin Ye glanced at the spot where Master Gongshu was working, below which was the stone path of the courtyard. She really wasn't picky.

Lin Ye stepped forward and used his immortal energy to draw a circle around her, instantly enveloping her in a hazy golden light.

"Master Gongshu, I've put all the materials and tools inside for you, and there's also a technical summary I made that you can refer to."

"Okay~" came a muffled voice from inside.

Lin Ye beckoned, inviting Ji Xuan and Bai Huang to speak privately.

......

Wude Hall.

Lin Ye invited the two to have tea and said to Ji Xuan with a smile, "I have long heard of Master Gongshu's reputation and I really need such an assistant. Why didn't you invite him sooner?"

Ji Xuan hurriedly said, "It's my fault for not handling things well..."

In fact, the demons were also worried that Lin Ye would hold a grudge against the White Tiger Clan. Besides, Gongshu Yan was not good at interacting with people, and they were afraid that sending him would cause trouble instead.

However, Lin Ye and Gongshu Yan get along well, so it seems that he made the right bet.

Lin Ye said, "Huang'er, didn't you tell me before that we would go and rescue Master Gongshu in a few days?"

Bai Huang chuckled: "Ye Zi, it wasn't a calamity, it was clearly a rescue."

Lin Ye nodded: "We should go. We really should have read Master Gongshu's design sooner!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan broke out in a cold sweat.

Lin Ye)? Lu〓ba? (Nine?) Ou⑻^Ling is zero Ou, Lin-? Meng This is pointing at her!

Although Gongshu Yan was sent over, it was merely a favor done in the meantime, not a significant one.

Ji Xuan knew perfectly well that he had to quickly clean up the mess left by the other three great demons.

Essentially, the three-race republic is the result of a majority decision.

Lin Ye secured the support of the entire human race, as well as the peace faction of the Lich and Demon races, making him virtually invincible.

The most likely group to experience a reversal is actually the demon race, whose political stance is currently furthest from Lin Ye's.

However, with the Vermilion Bird Clan and the Qilin Clan as bait, and considering that Lin Ye is ultimately a member of the demon race, the demon race still tries to regain their allegiance...

......

After hearing Xueying and Jixuan's explanation, Lin Ye's chest heaved violently, and he turned away with a flick of his sleeve: "This is utterly absurd!"

The White Emperor watched the whole thing, his brow furrowed.

This Xueying is incredibly audacious. Taking advantage of my seclusion, she said she wanted to possess me all to herself... But coming from her mouth, it does seem quite believable; she's always been reckless.

As one of the first cultivators to transcend tribulation in the matriarchal era, her talent was absolutely top-notch. However, the level of competition in this era was far less than that in the Dark Ages, which is why there were also fools like Xueying mixed in.

"You'd better watch yourselves!" Bai Huang said with a displeased expression, then got up and left.

Just as the two were at a loss, Lin Ye transmitted his voice to Ji Xuan: "Clan Chief Ji, send Xue Ying back, and call Long Xiao and Yuan Jin over separately. I want to confront them face to face."

Ji Xuan felt reassured: "Yes, Alliance Leader!"

She realized that they had already given her a way out.

......

Long Xiao and Yuan Jin indeed used the same excuse.

Are they telling the truth or lying?

After seeing Yuan Jin off, Lin Ye was still thinking about this matter on his way back to the workshop where Gongshu Yan was.

'My constitution is like this, so it might not actually be fake... but it doesn't matter anyway.'

After making the old Vermilion Bird clan chief "disappear," Lin Ye now needs to use other powerful demons to gain political credibility.

As the leader of the alliance, if he were to exterminate even his own people, neither the witch clan nor the human clan would believe him. Lin Ye comforted the three of them and then released them.

Once all three races have made significant investments, the path to a republic will likely be unstoppable.

If all goes well, the alliance meeting will be on the agenda soon.

As Lin Ye pondered, a thought struck him, and the trace of the Heavenly Dao power he had left outside sent out a dangerous warning.

Lin Ye quickly activated the Heaven-Stealing Dao Principles... The Dao Principles power left on the three Mahayana stage cultivators of the Myriad Immortals Alliance was triggered!

At the same time, Huang Zhou hurriedly said, "Master, urgent report! The array left in the Myriad Immortals Alliance shows that Emperor Xia... has been attacked in his mansion!"

Lin Ye frowned deeply: "How many thieves in the world can kill a Mahayana cultivator?"
