Longevity: Starting with an infant's innate growth potential

"I've reached 58,000 points!"

"Killing this fifth-tier golden-eyed spirit race member has added more than 10,000 points."

Inside the tent, Zhou Ling looked at the points on the jade token with delight.

There are still more than four months until the trial ends, but with the current points...

He believed that it was simply impossible for others to catch up.

After all, 50,000 points is equivalent to killing five early-stage fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Race members.

This is something even a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would find difficult to achieve.

After all, even for a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, killing a fifth-tier early-stage Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member is not so easy.

Moreover, even if they successfully kill the enemy, it will take some time for them to recover their cultivation.

Based on my current strength...

Although he killed the fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan leader, his mana and soul power were greatly depleted.

For an ordinary cultivator, it would be absolutely impossible to recover without one or two months of recuperation.

Not only that, his two spiritual flames and the Sunlit Immortal Sword were also greatly depleted.

It will take some time to recover.

This will take at least one or two months.

Wu Daoyuan and the other two were only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Although they are all exceptionally talented and possess amazing skills.

It cannot be ruled out that they also possess the strength to kill a fifth-tier early-stage Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member.

However, killing two early-stage fifth-tier golden-eyed spirit race members in such a short time is almost impossible.

Moreover, the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan's strength is extremely terrifying.

Last time, by using two Blazing Sun Flames, I unexpectedly killed two fourth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Race members.

They did not truly experience the terror of the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan's Blood Soul attack power.

This time, he faced the soul domain attack of the fifth-tier golden-eyed spirit race leader alone.

If it weren't for the three spiritual flames protecting him, coupled with his own powerful spiritual cultivation, he would have been in trouble.

That could be invaded by the blood eye at any time.

Once the Blood Eye takes over his sea of ​​consciousness, his soul will be completely transformed into a soul slave of the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan.

Just like when killing the Golden Eye Soul Domain, those fearless blood souls charged out from the Golden Eye.

These blood spirits are all quite powerful.

Among ordinary cultivators in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm, whose soul defense is as formidable as that of three rings of spiritual flames?

Moreover, the ability to break through the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan's soul domain was achieved by simultaneously utilizing [Intermediate Observation] and [Intermediate Analysis] to identify the weaknesses in the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan's soul domain.

Therefore, Zhou Ling didn't really care about the other three's scores, or their chances of catching up with him.

"Fortunately, I have the two talents [Restore to Original State] and [Essential Medicine Stress] to speed up the recovery."

"One or two days should be enough for recovery."

"As for the two spiritual flames, we can only rely on absorbing the blood medicine to activate the [Five Elements Thunder Gang] talent to aid in their recovery."

Zhou Ling thought to himself.

He then took out the pill, popped it into his mouth, and recovered.

First, I need to restore my cultivation level.

Two more spiritual flames were restored.

As for the Sunlit Immortal Sword, it can only be restored with the help of two spirit flames.

Fortunately, the consumption of the Sunlit Immortal Sword is not too great.

Once the two spiritual flames have recovered, and after being tempered again with the Radiant Sun Burning Flame, they will be able to recover in a short period of time.

Immediately, he moved his hand, and a bone ring that shone with a bony light appeared in his hand.

This is the bone ring of that fifth-tier golden-eyed spirit.

"According to Commander Zhang, this Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan commander has extremely high bloodline and holds a high position within the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan. I suppose the contents of the bone ring will not disappoint me."

Zhou Ling's face showed anticipation.

Then, with a thought, a brownish-yellow spiritual flame condensed and appeared.

The Blazing Sun Flame and the True Yang Fire have consumed too much energy, so now we can only use Earth Spirit Fire to remove the restrictions on the bone ring.

The effect is the same.

"Hoohoo."

The earth spirit fire flashed, enveloping the bone ring and beginning to dissolve the restrictions on it.

······.

The stronghold where the cultivators of the desolate region reside.

"What? Zhou Ling's activation level has reached 58,000!"

"How can this be?"

"58,000 points, that's terrifying. I only had 1,800 points, and I almost lost my life."

"This time, more than 10,000 points have been added. That's terrifying."

"How could a late-stage Golden Core cultivator like him accumulate so many points in just over a month?"

"This time, they actually killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member."

Inside the tent, the cultivators looked at the point tokens in their hands, each one of them from the desolate region appearing incredulous.

They felt the jade pendant vibrate, took it out to examine it, and unexpectedly, it was triggered by Zhou Ling obtaining a large number of points.

This time, the shockwave was far more dramatic than the previous two.

Because this time Zhou Ling actually killed a fifth-tier early-stage Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member.

No one expected that Zhou Ling, a Golden Core cultivator, would actually kill a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member.

This combat power is truly terrifying.

"How did this kid do that?"

Qin Yi picked up the wine jar, took a big gulp of the spiritual wine, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Over the past month or so.

He led his men in a proactive attack, engaging the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan in three battles.

They killed several fourth-tier golden-eyed spirits and expanded their stronghold to a radius of three miles.

I feel like I've already done my best.

Furthermore, one of the cultivators participating in the trial was killed.

Could it really be that there is such a huge gap between my strength and Zhou Ling's?

However, in the ranking of the four great grotto heavens, Zhou Ling is clearly only fourth.

It should be noted that the ranking of the Four Great Grotto-Heavens was determined based on the comprehensive performance of each individual in various aspects.

There shouldn't be any problems.

However, from the start of the trials, he consistently ranked first.

This made him a little unbelievable.

He only has a little over 5,000 points right now.

But Zhou Ling's fraction of his earnings was already more than his, which was really hard to accept.

I originally thought I would try to get second place, or even first place.

But now Zhou Ling has left them far behind.

It can be said that they are completely out of reach.

Moreover, Zhou Ling has now successfully killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member, and he has also won the bet among the four of them.

"No, I need to go to Zhou Ling's stronghold and see what's going on."

Qin Yi took another big gulp of wine, thinking to himself.

He wanted to find out exactly what the current situation was at Zhou Ling's base number three.

······.

Outpost One.

Today, its appearance has been greatly changed.

The entire stronghold has reached a radius of five li.

"hiss!"

"Zhou Ling has actually reached 58,000 points!"

"They also killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member."

"How is this done?"

Inside the tent, the Heavenly Palace cultivators were also discussing the matter with expressions of shock.

Zhou Ling has repeatedly shocked them.

The immortal city stronghold was established in less than ten days.

In just over a month, he successfully killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member.

This is absolutely terrifying.

Such strength makes him an absolute genius among geniuses.

Many people glanced at Wu Daoyuan.

Wu Daoyuan, dressed in a white robe, sat calmly in the main seat.

But my heart was filled with turmoil.

Zhou Ling actually killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member before him.

This was really hard for him to accept.

In recent days, he has also led his team to launch successive attacks, killing members of the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan.

However, due to the evil mist, they dared not venture too deep into it during each attack. After all, staying in the evil mist for too long would gradually cause their magical power to stagnate, and the risk of encountering the Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan would be too great.

Therefore, they only operated within a radius of several dozen miles around their stronghold.

Although several waves of Golden-Eyed Spirits were killed, the points gained were not many.

He currently only has a little over six thousand points.

Ranked third, after Zhou Ling and Xia Ruohe.

What he found hard to accept was that Zhou Ling's current score had not only reached more than 50,000, but he had also successfully killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member first.

This means that he lost his bet with Zhou Ling.

And they lost so completely.

How could he, the number one prodigy of the Heavenly Palace, accept this?

"Then let's go see how this kid did it?"

Wu Daoyuan clenched his fists tightly.

I never imagined that anyone in the Four Great Grotto-Heavens would exert such a strong sense of pressure on me.

Moreover, this time, he himself will lose the Five Elements Sword Pill to Zhou Ling.

This was really unacceptable to him.

You should know that this Five Elements Sword Pill is an ancestral treasure.

He never imagined he would lose.

That's why it was brought out as a bet.

After all, at that time, without enough incentives to entice Zhou Ling, he wouldn't have accepted the bet.

"But it doesn't matter."

"The Five Elements Sword Pill has the sword energy seal of the ancestor, and it is impossible for anyone who is not of the Wu family bloodline to fuse with it."

"We'll find a way to take it back later."

Wu Daoyuan thought to himself.

He immediately got up and led the others away from the camp.

······.

Inside the camp at the No. 2 Immortal City outpost.

"Zhou Ling has actually killed a fifth-tier Golden-Eyed Spirit Clan member."

Looking at the points jade token, Xia Ruohe frowned.

Zhou Ling's strength completely exceeded her expectations.

Originally, the biggest competitor this time was Wu Daoyuan.

Unexpectedly, it was Zhou Ling, who ranked fourth.

"It seems I misjudged them this time."

Xia Ruohe thought to herself helplessly.

If she had known Zhou Ling possessed such abilities earlier, she would have chosen to cooperate with Qin Yi.

But Zhou Ling rose to power too quickly.

It happened so fast that she didn't even have time to adjust her plans.

Zhou Ling's points are now far ahead of everyone else's.

It's too late to come up with a solution now.

But she was naturally unwilling to admit defeat so easily.

"Let's go to the outpost and see what's going on?"

Xia Ruohe thought to herself.

One reason is the stakes involved.

Of course, she could afford to lose two Soul-Cleansing Pills.

Another main reason is to see what the current situation is with Zhou Ling's base.
······.

Inside the tent at Outpost No. 3.

"call!"

Zhou Ling let out a breath, a look of relief on his face.

As he absorbed the medicinal power of the pill, half of what he had lost was restored.

After another two or three days of rest, it should recover.

His gaze immediately fell on the bone ring floating in the air.

The seal on the bone ring has been removed by the burning of the earth elemental fire.

It is now ownerless.

Zhou Ling immediately entered it with his divine sense.

His eyes lit up immediately.

There were piles of treasures stacked up like mountains.

Blood spirit stones, blood medicines, blood ore, enormous monster skeletons, and so on.

Zhou Ling seemed a little overwhelmed.

"We've struck it rich."

Zhou Ling swallowed hard, his face beaming with joy.

After a brief scan with his divine sense, he realized that the gains this time were much greater than the last time he killed a fifth-tier Star Sea alien.

As expected, this golden-eyed spirit clan leader was of high status.

Then, Zhou Ling began to carefully compile the statistics.

First are the Blood Spirit Stones, more than five hundred top-grade Blood Spirit Stones, including more than thirty low-grade spirit stones.

There was a whole pile of other high-grade blood spirit stones, estimated to be several thousand.

These blood spirit stones all contain blood evil energy, which is not suitable for human cultivators to absorb through their meridians.

But for Zhou Ling, as long as he refines it, it won't have any impact.

There are over 300 Tier 5 Blood Potions and over 3,000 Tier 4 Blood Potions.

There are over 500 pieces of various fifth-tier ores and several thousand pieces of fourth-tier ores.

In addition, there are three fifth-tier monster skeletons and fifty-three fourth-tier monster skeletons.

There are also many monster blood essences, bone artifacts, soul artifacts, and so on.

"These are fifth-tier Blood Soul Grass, Mystic Spirit Fruit, and Blood Spirit Fruit."

"They're rolling in money!"

Zhou Ling's gaze swept over the blood medicine, his eyes filled with intense intensity.

Among these fifth-tier blood medicines, there are about ten Blood Soul Grasses, seven Mysterious Spirit Fruits, and five Blood Spirit Fruits.

By this calculation, I have a considerable amount of Blood Soul Grass and Mystic Spirit Fruit. All I need is True Glow Spirit Liquid to refine the Soul Cleansing Pill.

Besides these elixirs, many other elixirs are also blood-enhancing medicines that can directly improve the soul and physical body.

These require a lot of processing before human cultivators can use them.

However, Zhou Ling didn't have such trouble; he could directly absorb it using the [Five Elements Thunder Gang].

It helps to enhance the Five Elements Spiritual Flame.

"This is the skeleton of a mid-stage fifth-tier Soul Devouring Beast, containing Soul Flame within it."

His gaze swept over the three fifth-tier demon beast skeletons.

Zhou Ling thought to himself with a look of surprise and delight.

These three demonic beasts are the Golden Horned Beast, the Soul-Devouring Beast, and the Thunder Source Beast, respectively.

All three skeletons exuded an extremely astonishing aura.

The Golden Horned Beast was twelve zhang tall and looked like the skeleton of a dragon, with its bones radiating a golden light.

Especially the golden horn on its forehead, which is an excellent material for forging a fifth-tier sword.

The skeleton of the Thunder Source Beast looks like a giant bull tens of feet long, with its bones containing extremely intense lightning attributes.

Even before Zhou Ling's divine sense entered, he could already feel the incredibly vigorous thunderous rules within.

This was undoubtedly an invaluable treasure for him as he refined the Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder Technique.

Of the three fifth-tier demon beast skeletons, the most precious is the last one, which is only about ten feet long and belongs to the Soul Devouring Beast.

Under the [Intermediate Observation] and [Intermediate Analysis] levels, Zhou Ling discovered that within the skeleton of this Soul-Devouring Beast, an extremely rare Soul Flame was actually being nurtured.

However, it will take some effort to subdue it.

"Given my current state of mind, it's not the right time yet."

"We'll make our move once your soul has fully recovered."

Zhou Ling thought to himself.

As for the other two skeletons, they were used to forge swords and temper the lightning attribute rules.

It's all good stuff.

As for the bones of those fourth-tier demonic beasts, they also have considerable value.

Zhou Ling continued compiling the statistics.

"This wave of gains is truly an incredible windfall."

Soon after, Zhou Ling withdrew his consciousness from the bone ring, his face filled with excitement.

This is absolutely the biggest gain ever.

This gain is enough to significantly enhance the family's prestige.

Many of them are fifth-tier treasures, and there are tens of thousands of fourth-tier treasures.

If it were converted into spirit stones, Zhou Ling himself couldn't even estimate the value.

He then withdrew his consciousness from the bone ring; this resource was enough for the family's needs for the next ten years. (End of Chapter)
