I have crossed paths with the Zhao family ancestor, and naturally, I can discern your identity from the connection.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man relaxed his brow and chuckled lightly: \"I see. I sensed the aura of the Zhao family ancestor on you and intended to invite you for a conversation, not expecting you to be so perceptive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone shifted, his eyes showing displeasure: \"However, please do not compare me to those vile and wicked dragons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An nodded slightly and asked, \"What may I call you, senior?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man pondered: \"My name is Long Tianxing. Aren’t you afraid that the human factions will accuse you of colluding with demons after learning that you address me as a senior?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An shook his head and said, \"You harbor no murderous intent, senior. I can naturally sense that, but I am curious about the past events you mentioned earlier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing waved his sleeve gently, and a stone table and two wooden stools suddenly flew out in the simple room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat down calmly, gesturing for Qin An to take a seat as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without fuss, Qin An sat opposite Long Tianxing with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Qin An’s calm expression, Long Tianxing praised: \"To possess cultivation at the Outer Elixir initial realm at such a young age and still remain composed in front of me, this temperament surpasses countless self-seeking individuals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You flatter me, senior,\" Qin An replied with modest confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to the topic, Long Tianxing grew solemn: \"The matter is long; allow me to tell it slowly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I come from outside Xunyang Prefecture. Back then, I fled to Xunyang Prefecture after offending my enemies, accompanied by my younger sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After reaching Xunyang Prefecture, both my sister and I were gravely injured. We sought a secret place to heal, but my sister believed consuming blood meals would restore her faster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An raised an eyebrow: \"Is she still alive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing shook his head sorrowfully: \"She died long ago. There was a spiritual connection between us, which I can no longer feel. However, prior to her death, she seemed to briefly revive, not as true rebirth, but more as a Pseudo-God.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Turned into a Pseudo-God?\" Qin An squinted his eyes, suddenly recalling the true dragon corpse at Jiao Long Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Qin An recounted the events at Jiao Long Hall one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Long Tianxing became furious, a killing intent flashing in his eyes as he slammed the table fiercely: \"Those damned lesser dragons dared to desecrate a true dragon’s remains! Their hearts deserve to be condemned!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, calm down, senior.\" Qin An stroked Cold Star and said slowly: \"All the demons in Jiao Long Hall have been exterminated, so there is no need for you to act personally. Please continue with your story.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing his rage, Long Tianxing continued: \"After my sister and I quarreled, we parted ways. I found the remains of an Ancient Battlefield, while my sister wreaked havoc outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wanted to stop her, but my injuries were more severe than hers, leaving me powerless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Jianghu people rumored an evil dragon had entered the Ancient Battlefield, which actually referred to the confusion between my sister and me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An rubbed his chin thoughtfully: \"That seems reasonable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing continued: \"Later, I met the Zhao family ancestor here, but my condition worsened, so I used a Dragon Race Secret Technique to enter a state of fake death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I knew the Zhao family ancestor harbored greed, so I used a Heart Method to entice his inner desires. Realizing he couldn’t break my physical body and wanting the Heart Method, he placed me at the river bottom to preserve my body.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Several years later, I emerged from the fake death state, slightly better, but the Zhao family ancestor was nowhere to be found.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He had fused with the Wood Element Divine Sense and eventually died by my hands,\" Qin An shook his head: \"Senior, you likely won’t be getting his pills.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering this, Qin An found Long Tianxing’s plan quite ingenious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the Heart Method as bait, he let the Zhao family ancestor gather various pills while he remained in fake death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhao family ancestor likely believed him dead and placed him in the river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon recovering from the fake death state, he could continue waiting for the Zhao family ancestor’s pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only unexpected variable was the Zhao family ancestor himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Long Tianxing hadn’t expected him to find the Wood Element Divine Sense, sacrificing his cultivation to drop from the Outer Elixir Realm to build an unparalleled foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing’s eyes burned brightly: \"The reason I invited you here is to ask for your help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An raised his gaze, understanding: \"To heal your injuries?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing nodded: \"Precisely. I won’t hide anything: if you can help me refine a pill to heal my injuries, I will give you the Water Element Divine Sense and my robust Dragon Race Heart Method.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Long Tianxing lightly waved his sleeve, and an ancient book appeared on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the Water Element Divine Sense in Long Tianxing’s palm, these two items combined were enough to make countless Jianghu people fight to the death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An pondered slightly, a calm settling around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing remained silent, patiently waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the time it takes for half a stick of incense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An asked: \"Which kind of pill does senior want to refine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found the deal feasible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were only a Dragon Race Heart Method, Qin An might not agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the task would likely be particularly troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Zhao family ancestor hadn’t gathered it, and refining it himself would take a lot of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, aside from the Heart Method, there was also the Water Element Divine Sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This deal was too tempting for Qin An to refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing’s gaze deepened as he slowly spoke three words: \"Divine Spirit Pill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Divine Spirit Pill?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing these words, Qin An furrowed his brows: \"Is your injury truly that severe, senior?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pill is the supreme healing pill in the Outer Elixir Realm, said to resurrect the dead and regrow flesh and bones with a single dose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But its refinement is extremely challenging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most difficult part is the alchemy materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing nodded, sighing: \"If it weren’t for damage to my essence, I wouldn’t be so desperate. Once I recover, I will surely settle the score with that Pseudo-God.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An didn’t concern himself with how Long Tianxing got injured. He only wondered how long it would take to refine the Divine Form Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other materials were manageable, exchangeable with contributions from the Evil Extermination Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the most precious Heavenly Grass in the Divine Spirit Pill is extremely difficult to obtain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This plant grows in scarcely visited locations, and it is said to absorb the nutrients of the surrounding land as it grows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The area where it grows is desolate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, after it matures, it withers quickly within a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of this, its preciousness is imaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing said nothing more, looking at Qin An expectantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, Qin An nodded and said, \"Alright, I accept this task, but... can I have the items first?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing shook his head and said, \"Young friend, I’m afraid that’s not possible. You are my last hope here. Why do I often allow Jianghu people to acquire treasures? It’s because I want to find someone who can heal my injury, but I couldn’t find anyone. Over the years, only you can, so I need to make a compromise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said this, Long Tianxing stopped wasting words and pushed the Heart Method on the right side toward Qin An.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the deposit. Once it’s done, you can take the Divine Spirit Pill back to the Ancient Battlefield Ruins to exchange for the Water Element Divine Sense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing asked, \"Do you think this method is workable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An rubbed his chin, nodded, and said, \"Workable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a transaction, and it was also the first time Long Tianxing had met him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t say Long Tianxing doesn’t trust him; he also wouldn’t trust Long Tianxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, giving a deposit first and then subsequent benefits was just right for Qin An.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this in mind, Qin An put the cultivation technique into his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since the matter is settled, please release the river water above, so I may leave,\" Qin An said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no other benefits here, and Qin An didn’t want to linger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning as soon as possible would be good for cultivating proficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing nodded and waved his arm upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, the river water parted, creating a wide space leading directly to the shore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, by the way, senior.\" Qin An took a few steps and suddenly turned back, \"What’s with those boatmen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Tianxing said faintly, \"Those who come here, there are always some greedy ones who wish to strike when they see me injured, but I made them into scarecrow-like bodies. I didn’t bother to let them keep their original appearance to prevent trouble, so I uniformly changed them to look like old men.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An asked no further questions, placing his feet firmly on the ground, he utilized the Dragon Roar Shadow Step to leap high and land steadily on the shore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The river water quickly closed up, and the entire river became calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An looked at the calm river surface, his eyes flickering slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know how much truth there was in Long Tianxing’s words, though everything connected well without holes, caution was advisable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For the Water Element Divine Sense, this Divine Spirit Pill must be refined.\" Qin An walked while contemplating, \"But during the refining, I must come up with a foolproof plan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a while, Qin An raised his eyes to scan the dense forest ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s time to return.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the Ancient Battlefield Ruins doesn’t mean staying here forever. Qin An didn’t want to face Inner God Realm monsters and lose his life here one day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he had obtained everything he needed, not only acquiring thirty Demon Cores but also a Wood Element Divine Sense and Dragon Race Heart Method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s time to return and level up other professions to level eleven first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The method to enter the Ancient Battlefield Ruins is difficult and extremely cumbersome, but leaving is relatively simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ancient Battlefield Ruins has two exits, one for humans and another used by the pseudo-god monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both exits are guarded by the Evil Extermination Bureau’s Prefecture Generals and the pseudo-god monsters, with very tight security.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the map in his hand, Qin An wouldn’t find it too troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t linger and headed in one direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A very steep mountain peak, scenic and lush with greenery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though there were no traces of birds or beasts, it was bustling with activity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many Jianghu people were making their way up the mountain path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the mountaintop, numerous Evil Extermination Bureau Prefecture Generals stood with weapons, strictly guarding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the exit, once within this mountain’s area, no more treasure robbing was allowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, Jianghu people who arrived here all relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An, with Cold Star hanging at his waist, hands clasped behind him, ascended the stone steps of the mountain path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding Jianghu people, seeing him in dark clothing, quickly avoided him, making space for Qin An.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today he would be leaving, and Qin An didn’t delay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he was getting closer and closer to the mountaintop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hurried footsteps sounded from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Qin An was approaching the mountaintop, several figures rushed past, heading up the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An squinted his eyes, scrutinizing these dark-clad figures, frowning slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, two were holding numerous waist tokens, a close look showed a total of ten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being able to take the waist tokens meant the Mountain Patrol Copper Generals here had already been killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder what mission could result in so many Outer Elixir Realm experts dying,\" Qin An mused silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, Qin An reached the mountaintop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large platform stood there, with a bronze gate towering over it, identical to the one he had arrived through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, a sense of gloom pervaded the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Mountain Patrol Silver General looked at the waist tokens handed to him, his expression extremely grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin An had already reached the bronze gate and didn’t intend to involve himself in these matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a statement from the Mountain Patrol Silver General made him raise his eyebrows slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only to hear the Silver General suddenly shout: \"Ye Rou and others are elite members of the Talent Association, what kind of monster dares to slay ten Copper Generals in a row? This Fox Demon aura... could it be the doing of Carefree Mountain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",2249,"2026-06-03T03:46:01.215Z","2026-06-03T03:46:06.588Z",1,"novelbin.me","256995687bbdaeac103022a3f5b2c9102b573d28dc9d7e3c5f266d536ab324a3","rise-to-god-with-life-skill-professions-chapter-299","rise-to-god-with-life-skill-professions-chapter-297",632,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frise-to-god-with-life-skill-professions-cover.jpg"]
