Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

"No! You can't kill me!"

Feng Ling screamed in terror and struggled desperately, but he could not change anything. He was shaken to death by the sinking Seal of Mountains and Rivers below and turned into a ball of blood mist.

This was a shocking scene. The three young women in the distance were so shocked that they were speechless. Senior Brother Feng Ling, who had reached the tenth level of Qi training, was shocked to death like this?

"Old Black, come to work!"

"Here comes Sister Gu Chi!"

The man and the dog quickly cleaned up the battlefield, confiscated all the storage rings, and erased all traces of the battle at the scene.

The three young women came over, and the one leading them bowed and said, "My name is Miaoyun. Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist. May I know your name? And who is your master?"

Gu Chi didn't answer her question. Instead, he looked them up and down and said, "From what I heard from your conversation just now, are you disciples of Liyue Pavilion?"

Miao Yun didn't hide anything and nodded truthfully, "We are all outer disciples of Liyue Pavilion."

Liyue Pavilion, Gu Chi knew this sect. In the past, he and Huiming had collected and buried the body of a famous figure in the sect.

"Liyue Pavilion is regarded as a demonic cult. As members of the demonic cult, aren't you afraid that you will be hunted down and killed by the righteous people if you run to the secret realm of Beiyin Mountain?" Gu Chi asked puzzledly.

She hadn't known there were several other demonic sects in Qian Country besides the Liyue Pavilion, but she figured they certainly weren't as numerous as the famous and upright sects. This time, when the Beiyin Mountain Secret Realm opened, the vast majority of those who came seeking opportunities were self-proclaimed disciples of the righteous path. If she were a demonic sect disciple, she definitely wouldn't have come to join in the fun.

Miao Yun's eyes revealed a hint of helplessness as she smiled bitterly, "Rather than being attacked by righteous disciples, the schemes among fellow disciples seem to be more worthy of vigilance. Daoist friend, you just saw how those people were willing to kill and exterminate others just for a few spiritual herbs, completely disregarding the friendship between fellow disciples."

Miao Yun turned her head and glanced at the two younger sisters behind her, who looked only about sixteen or seventeen years old, and said, "If it weren't for fellow Daoist's help, the three of us would definitely not have had a good end."

Gu Chi nodded, then changed the subject and said, "Anyone can kill the disciples of the Demon Sect. Aren't you afraid that I will take the heads of the three of you back to the sect to claim the reward?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the two girls behind Miaoyun felt their hearts tighten and their thin bodies trembled slightly.

Miao Yun said calmly, "If it weren't for you, my two junior sisters and I would not have survived, but would have been insulted by those beasts in human form before we died. If you want to take our heads back to the sect to claim the reward, go ahead."

In her words, it was either death, but dying at the hands of Gu Chi was definitely better than dying at the hands of those beasts in human skin.

Gu Chi couldn't help but look at this person twice more. He was calm, responsible, and able to take on responsibilities. If such a person did not die prematurely, his future achievements would definitely not be low.

Gu Chi laughed and said, "Don't worry, I have some connection with your Liyue Pavilion, so I won't make things difficult for you, but..."

She stretched out her words and said, "Do you have any books on formations or restrictions? Don't worry, I won't take yours. I just want us to copy them down."

"This..." Miaoyun looked embarrassed and turned around to ask the two people behind her what they thought.

"The law cannot be passed on to outsiders. If the deacon knew about it..."

"Just don't let him know, okay?"

"This person saved the lives of the three of us, so it's okay to ask her to copy it. As long as we don't tell anyone afterwards, the deacon won't know about it."

"OK then."

After reaching a consensus, Miao Yun turned around, looked at Gu Chi and said, "We do have a book on formations and restrictions, but they are only entry-level. If you don't mind, you can copy a copy for yourself."

"I don't mind, I don't mind!" Gu Chi was very happy and rubbed her hands excitedly. An entry-level one would be better. If it was too complicated and profound, she and Big Black Dog probably wouldn't be able to figure it out.

For example, if you let a primary school student look at the test papers of junior high school and high school, he can recognize each character, but he has no idea what they mean when they are put together.

Gu Chi took out paper and pen from his storage bag, asked Miaoyun to take the three books in front of him, and copied them carefully.

Half an hour later, Gu Chi took the booklet filled with words and compared it carefully with the book in front of him. Only after confirming that there was no typo did he return it to its original owner.

"It's not advisable to stay here for long. Once you've recovered from your injuries, leave as soon as possible." Gu Chi kicked the big black dog that was already fast asleep, "Let's go, Old Black."

"Take care, fellow Daoist." Miaoyun bowed.

The man and the dog jumped continuously on the big trees and soon disappeared from sight.

"I believe there are no absolutely good or absolutely bad people in this world, but the fact that Liyue Pavilion is considered a demonic cult is definitely not groundless. It's best to leave as soon as possible if you can."

Gu Chi's voice came from afar. Miao Yun was slightly stunned for a moment, shook her head and smiled bitterly, muttering: "Many times, what path to take and what kind of person to be are not something we can choose personally."

……

After parting with Miaoyun and the others, Gu Chi and the big black dog found a secret place to hide. There were dense bushes and thorns all around. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell that there were people hiding inside.

"Wow! There's even a map!"

Gu Chi's eyes lit up, and she and Big Black Dog broke the restrictions on the storage rings of the young men from Liyue Pavilion and found a map inside. It was even more detailed than the map she had drawn based on the description of the Black Bear Demon.

The growing locations of several medicinal herbs needed to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill are marked.

"The area where these medicinal herbs are found belongs to the second ring of the Beiyin Mountain Secret Realm. Disciples from all the major sects must be scrambling to get there right now."

Gu Chi pondered for a moment and said, "The area where the Xuanbing Flower, the main ingredient, is located must be very competitive right now. I don't think anyone will be able to take it away for a while. We can first go and gather the other auxiliary herbs and medicinal guides. What do you think, Lao Hei?"

The big black dog had no objection. His thought was simple: even if he missed the main medicine, the worst that could happen was that he could wait fifty years to get it again.

They continued to count the spoils, and found more than 600 gold crystal copper coins, as well as some miscellaneous spiritual medicines.

What made Gu Chi's eyes light up again was that she found a secret book called "Breath Concealment Technique".

The breath concealing technique, as the name suggests, is to cover up one's own breath and energy so as to avoid the detection of other people's spiritual consciousness.

Gu Chi was overjoyed. This technique was exactly what she and the big black dog needed right now.

"That's great, Lao Hei. With this breath concealment technique, we can hide ourselves better!"

They collected all the spoils and then began to dig the soil, opening up a cave deep underground and hiding inside to practice the "Breath Concealment Technique".

They have a 4-point bonus on the [Spell] attribute, so practicing ordinary skills is basically easy and there is no difficulty at all.
