Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

"One more thing to add, these three items, the bracelet, the ring and the hairpin, must be relics from the ancient Biluo Immortal Palace." said the old man on the high platform.

The group was dumbfounded, feeling as if they had been poured a bucket of cold water. It was fine if it was a relic from ancient times, but it had to be from the ancient Biluo Immortal Palace? Who could come up with such a thing?

Gu Chi frowned. At first she suspected it might be a coincidence, but now even the Biluo Immortal Palace was dragged into the picture. It was obvious that it was aimed at her.

"You guys are responsible?" Gu Chi turned around and looked at the Yi elders in surprise and doubt, saying, "The Lord you are talking about, could it be Xuan Zhu?"

"Don't call your Majesty by his name!" Several old men changed color and made gestures to keep quiet.

Gu Chi was stunned. Xuanzhu, the Saintess of the ancient Biluo Immortal Palace, was actually the "Sovereign" as the natives of Kunlun Ruins called him? What on earth was going on?

"Young friend, just hand over the relics of the Lord to us. Not only will the water of the Fountain of Youth and the Regeneration Grass be yours, we can also give you a few more magical herbs."

"We cannot tolerate the desecration of His Majesty's relics by outsiders. They must be brought back to our ancestral land and enshrined. We are the ones who are easier to talk to. If it were anyone else, they would have already started to rob you."

Several elders of the Yi tribe used both soft and hard tactics.

Gu Chi stared at them. "What are you going to do with these relics of Xuan Zhu? Are you going to remelt them and then re-refine them into weapons? Or do you have other intentions?"

"Young friend, be careful with your words!" Several elders of the Yi clan glared and said, "We would never do anything so disrespectful to Your Majesty!"

"Xuan Zhu passed on the supreme inheritance of the Biluo Immortal Palace, the "Qingming Sutra", to me. In a sense, he can be regarded as my master. If you can't give a reasonable explanation, I will definitely not hand over those relics to you." Gu Chi stated his identity and attitude.

"This……"

Several elders of the Yi clan were all surprised. This young woman before them was actually the descendant of their Lord? She possessed the supreme inheritance of the Blue Sky Immortal Mansion, the "Qingming Sutra"?

"Do you have any proof?" asked an old man.

Gu Chi didn't waste any words and started practicing the Qingming Sutra directly, and released a little bit of Qi.

The old men were finally convinced and could hardly hide their excitement.

"You are indeed His Majesty's heir. Please forgive our disrespectful words just now!"

Gu Chi looked at them and said, "I have already proven my identity. It is not considered a blasphemy to keep Xuan Zhu's relics with me, right? If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I definitely can't give it to you."

"We are not in a position to elaborate on the reasons behind this, but we can tell you that these relics are of extraordinary significance and must not be left outside."

Although they couldn't say much, these old people still said something.

In a pure land in their ancestral land, there is a sacred tree, which was transformed from a wisp of innate origin of Xuanzhu in the past. It has been worshipped and offered by them for generations and planted in the fountain of youth in their ancestral land.

"Your Majesty once said that as long as we take good care of the sacred tree and don't let it wither and die, she might be able to revive when the time is right."

"But after so many years, the sacred tree has remained silent. We think it may be missing some opportunity."

"The relics you found in the abyss all carry His Majesty's aura and the mark of the Dao. If they can be integrated into the sacred tree, perhaps unexpected changes will occur."

Gu Chi's heart was shaken, and he whispered, "The sacred tree transformed from the innate origin, maybe it can be used to revive one day? Did she really say that at the time? Is there really a way to return to life after death in this world?"

"Life and death are both the laws of the Tao. It's just that there is such a possibility. As for whether it will succeed, no one can say for sure."

"They say death is like the extinguishing of a lamp, but even if a lamp goes out, as long as the wick is still there, can't it still be lit? The sacred tree was transformed from a strand of your innate essence, and it serves as the wick, while the Fountain of Youth is the lamp oil. As long as we nurture it well, there may be a chance of it being rekindled."

Immortality is the greatest pursuit of every cultivator. Therefore, over the ages, many methods of resurrecting death have been circulated in the world.

For example, in the underground palace of the Jingcheng ruins, the owner of the tomb cast three tombstones, representing the previous life, present life, and future life, hoping to use the power of cause and effect of the three lives to reverse death and be reborn.

Some people would use the "power of heaven" and "power of earth" to build tombs, hoping to use the power of heaven and earth to break through the rules of the Tao and revive themselves in another life.

In addition, there are various hypotheses proposed by our predecessors, such as yin and yang reversal, corpse transformation, and military death.

Even Xuan Zhu, when he saw the Fountain of Youth in the ancestral land of the Yi clan, separated a strand of his innate essence and transformed it into a sacred tree and planted it in the Fountain of Youth as a backup for his future resurrection.

"I want to go to your ancestral land to see the sacred tree." Gu Chi said.

"No, outsiders are not allowed to enter our ancestral land. This is the rule set by our ancestors. Even our own people cannot set foot here casually, let alone you?" Several elders of the Yi tribe refused without thinking.

Gu Chi said: "Since outsiders cannot enter, then how did Xuan Zhu get in back then?"

"Can it be the same? She is our Lord, so we can make an exception."

Another old man muttered quietly: "Actually, she broke in by herself in the beginning."

Gu Chi thought about it and finally handed over several of Xuan Zhu's relics to them, asking them to take them back and merge with the sacred tree.

She didn't believe that there was any way to come back to life after death, but there were so many mysterious methods in the world that no one could predict for sure, so she just kept a hope.

With the water of the fountain of youth and the grass of regeneration in hand, everyone around looked at him with envy.

"Yes, with the water of the fountain of youth and the grass of regeneration, my future journey will be smoother." Lian Su already regarded those two things as his own, nodding and muttering to himself.

"I'll beat you so badly that your mother won't even recognize you!" Murong Zhixiu looked unhappy.

Gu Chi stood up and stared at him with cold eyes: "Go out and choose a good feng shui place for yourself."

"Hehehe..." Lian Su laughed, shaking his head and smacking his lips. He said, "Back then, your senior brothers and sisters were just like you now. They were so arrogant and scrambled to be the first to fight me, but in the end, I stepped on them one by one. I hope you don't follow in their footsteps."

Gu Chi ignored his sarcasm and strode out, saying, "I think the hill outside the city is a good place. I'll bury you there later."

"The scenery there is nice, but burying him there would be too easy for him. In my opinion, we should just burn him to ashes and then dump him in a random toilet!" Murong Zhixiu yelled indignantly.

"I fully agree!" Li Wangcen raised his hand and nodded. He really couldn't stand the other party's arrogance.
