Chapter 156

However, Tang Yuanhui's next words shocked both of them: "Little Liu, if I'm not mistaken, you are also only one step away from ascension now, right?"

Liu Shengyi didn't expect his situation to be seen through at a glance, and in his shock, he hurriedly explained, "To tell you the truth, Junior once entered a state of visualization and viewed the 'Medicine Master Earth Treasury Diagram.'

After more than ten years of cultivation, I reached the peak two years ago, only one step away from ascension. Junior is unwilling, so I have been looking for a way to achieve the status of 'Land Immortal'."

Saying this, he revealed a dark blue jade pendant hanging on his chest.

Tang Yuanhui was shocked upon seeing it, "This is the Jingguan Dead Man Jade."

Liu Shengyi smiled bitterly helplessly, "It is this jade that allowed me to avoid the fate of ascension."

Tang Yuanhui was filled with emotion, "This kind of jade comes from a mass grave, condensing the extreme Yin power of countless wandering souls."

Liu Shengyi added, "That's right; I found this piece of dead man jade outside the city of Changping."

Tang Yuanhui was shocked upon hearing this, and asked in disbelief, "Changping? Could it be the place where Bai Qi slaughtered forty thousand Zhao troops more than two thousand years ago?"

Lin Yu knew the history of the Battle of Changping well and understood how the Qin general Bai Qi cruelly buried forty thousand Zhao soldiers alive.

He had also read records of "Jingguan" in ancient books: after winning a battle, the ancients would pile up the enemy's corpses and seal the earth into a mound as a symbol of their battle achievements; these mountains of corpses were called Jingguan.

In ancient times, this was not only a great insult to the enemy but also a show-off of victory.

Liu Shengyi smiled bitterly helplessly, "That's right; now this piece of dead man jade has turned me into something neither human nor ghost. But even so, I feel this is better than so-called ascension; at least I am still alive."

After speaking, he knelt before Tang Yuanhui again, kowtowing incessantly, "Please help me become a Land Immortal! No, perhaps I cannot become a Land Immortal, but even if it's becoming a Ghost Immortal, it's fine."

Tang Yuanhui looked toward Lin Yu after hearing this, and at this time, Lin Yu was a bit hesitant.

Because according to historical records, Jingguan Dead Man Jade would only appear during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, especially before the Qin Dynasty, when this custom was particularly prevalent.

That Jingguan in the Battle of Changping was undoubtedly one of the largest and most famous in history. If he could give this piece of Jingguan Dead Man Jade to his master Zhang Song.

Thinking of this, Lin Yu was moved and nodded to Tang Yuanhui. Tang Yuanhui saw this and said frankly, "To tell you the truth, I was able to become a Land Immortal all thanks to the Marrow Cleansing Pill of the Lin family boy."

Liu Shengyi was stunned at first, then said angrily, "If the Immortal Master doesn't want to help, just say so; why use such a lie to deceive me?

A divine medicine like the Marrow Cleansing Pill, how could it be refined by this young man? Even his grandfather Lin Bu'er, who was proficient in alchemy and profound medicine, couldn't refine such a pill."

At this time, Lin Yu opened his mouth, "Why don't we make a bet? I see your soul is scattered; if you continue to wear that piece of dead man jade, I'm afraid you won't live for three months. Even if you give it up now and try to ascend, you can only live for another hundred days. Why not take a risk?"

Liu Shengyi smiled bitterly, surprised that Lin Yu could see that his life was coming to an end. He sighed, "If I had apprenticed myself to the Stealing Heaven Thief Zhang Song six years ago and learned Mysterious Gate Dunjia, I wouldn't have ended up like this today."

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Actually, my master Zhang Song has already opened his own dojo in Miao Street not long ago."

"What did you say?" Liu Shengyi and Tang Yuanhui exclaimed in unison.

Lin Yu smiled and recounted the various events that happened in Miao Street, Huacheng, and finally looked at Liu Shengyi and said, "Although I cannot guarantee that Master will definitely take you as a disciple, achieving the status of Ghost Immortal in his dojo and cooperating with my Marrow Cleansing Pill is not impossible."

Although he still harbored doubts, Liu Shengyi asked, "Then, what do I need to pay? If it's money, for Heavenly Master Zhang who has already opened a dojo, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Lin Yu revealed a confident smile, pointed his finger lightly at Liu Shengyi's chest, and said easily, "You just need to hand over that piece of Jingguan Dead Man Jade to my master."

Thinking that he only had three months of life left, Liu Shengyi gritted his teeth and said decisively, "Let's go, we're going to Miao Street."

Tang Yuanhui also expressed his willingness to go together, "I didn't expect Heavenly Master Zhang to set up a dojo; I'll go and join in the fun too."

However, when the three of them came out of the basement and just arrived outside the villa, Tang Yiyan suddenly rushed toward Lin Yu, kissed him heavily on the face, and said angrily, "Now you know, the person I like is not you at all, it's him; now you can give up completely."

All of this happened too fast; Lin Yu hadn't reacted yet when he heard Qin Jun's voice full of hostility, "Tang Yiyan, you will regret today's move."

Before this, Qin Jun had always wanted to please Tang Yiyan, acting like a loyal pursuer.

But what Tang Yiyan disliked most was this kind of clingy man, and her grandfather had already agreed to cancel their engagement.

Facing Qin Jun's constant pestering, she lied helplessly that she had fallen in love with someone else.

Just at the moment Lin Yu appeared, she decided to stake everything on one throw and kissed him directly.

Seeing his fiancée kissing someone else was simply a great humiliation for Qin Jun.

But because Tang Yuanhui and Liu Shengyi were both present, reason told him that it was not appropriate to take action at this time.

After leaving a harsh word, Qin Jun left Yipin Yuyuan Manor in anger.

An hour later, they arrived in Miao Street. Tang Yuanhui was riding in a custom-made large nanny car, and the interior was as spacious as a recreational vehicle.

Looking at the dilapidated state of Miao Street now, Liu Shengyi and Tang Yuanhui both felt very heartbroken.

Tang Yuanhui sighed, "Fifty years ago, this was the first street of the Mysterious Gate, but now things have changed and people are different."

Liu Shengyi also sighed with emotion, "It was in Miao Street, Huacheng, that I gathered the formula for the Life-Prolonging Pill."

During the conversation, the car passed by Maiyi Lane, and Tang Yuanhui keenly discovered something unusual and immediately asked the driver to stop. After getting out of the car, Tang Yuanhui asked Lin Yu urgently, "Has the Sixth Master really returned?"

Lin Yu nodded simply, "Returned."

Tang Yuanhui was even more shocked, "Divine sense, Yang Spirit, drawing a circle as a prison, blessed land, immortal life."

Hearing this, Liu Shengyi, who had just gotten out of the car, almost couldn't stand steady.

"Blessed land... how is this possible? Could it be that the person inside is already in the Yang Spirit realm?"

Tang Yuanhui was filled with emotion, "That's right, Yang Spirit is much stronger than a Land Immortal." Just at this time, Liu Jinyong's not-so-serious voice came.

"Oh my, haven't seen such an expert for a long time; where is the expert coming from?"

Tang Yuanhui heard this, straightened his clothes, and bowed respectfully.

"I am Tang Yuanhui of the Tang Sect, here specifically to pay a visit to the Sixth Master."

Liu Jinyong revealed a kind smile, "So it's Yuanhui; since we parted at the Golden Light Cave, in the blink of an eye, half a century has passed; I didn't expect you to have become such an expert."
