Chapter 341

To break through the upper limit of lifespan, one must improve one's realm and extend one's life.

Otherwise, one can only be taken away by Black and White Impermanence, with life force exhausted, waiting for reincarnation!

But Bai Qiuran, this extraordinary Qi Refining stage cultivator, was different from ordinary people.

His endless spiritual energy could guarantee the immortality of his physical body.

Furthermore, in the Cultivation World, there existed such a thing as Life-Extending Elixir.

Coupled with Bai Qiuran's Wood Spiritual Root, which was comparable to a Heaven Spiritual Root, he could perfectly absorb the medicinal properties of elixirs and use certain elixirs without limitation.

In other words, Bai Qiuran had simply relied on gobbling Life-Extending Elixirs, supplemented by his endless spiritual energy, to live on for three thousand years!

Of course, during this process, accidents did occur.

Once, he was trapped in a certain ruin, unable to refine Life-Extending Elixir, when Xue Ling came knocking from the Zhaoshang Sect.

At that time, Xue Ling was still a little imp, completely unable to defeat Bai Qiuran.

After Bai Qiuran left that ruin, he hastily swallowed a Life-Extending Elixir and successfully extended his life...

Although he could survive without taking medicine, that Xue Ling would hunt him down.

This was no different than provoking the dignity of the Underworld.

Therefore, one still had to go through the motions and leave some dignity for the Underworld.

Of course, over so many years, more powerful ghost envoys had been dispatched to trouble Bai Qiuran, but in the end, they all gave up!

Bai Qiuran, damn it, was merely at the Qi Refining stage, but those sixty-thousand-plus layers of cultivation base were no decoration!

Even Mahayana Stage cultivators were easily handled by him, let alone these ghost messengers.

Later, the matter was simply dropped.

Nowadays, Xue Ling's existence was more like a lifespan alarm clock for Bai Qiuran; whenever he appeared, he reminded Bai Qiuran that his final limit was approaching and it was time to take medicine!

He had become a mascot...

At this moment, Xue Ling spoke: "Do you think there is any meaning left in your life? Your sea of qi is countless times larger than that of an ordinary person; wanting to condense spiritual energy and transform it into origin essence... where in this world is there such a Foundation Establishment Elixir? Just come with me willingly to the Ghost Realm; the Immortal Emperor has said that once you die, he will appoint you as the King of the Ghost Realm, commanding the Ten Halls of the Netherworld!"

"No!"

Bai Qiuran refused outright: "I must achieve Foundation Establishment! I feel I am close!"

Xue Ling was speechless and could only leave behind a final warning: wait for him to take medicine and extend his lifespan, otherwise he would come to seize his soul!

"Sigh..."

Bai Qiuran looked up at the cosmos in speechlessness: "Qi Refining at sixty thousand layers, breaking through every year, yet failing every year! Every year the final limit approaches! Sigh..."
