Chapter 111: Immortal! Gong Qing's Decision

~8 min read 1,427 words

Whether it be the emperors of old or the top-tier billionaires of this era.

They all seem obsessed with immortality.

But immortality is truly a vague and ethereal term.

Yet now, after Lin Xuan lightly spoke the words "I probably won't die," this vague and ethereal term seems to have become a concrete reality.

"This?"

Lao Tianshi was stunned for a moment, then let out a long sigh, wanting to speak.

"Is Tianshi worried that what I said might spread?"

Lin Xuan naturally saw the Tianshi's concern and asked with a light chuckle.

"Indeed."

Lao Tianshi did not prevaricate and nodded directly in admission.

"Wanting immortality is simple: cultivate the Inner Elixir, and reach the end of the path of Inner Elixir cultivation."

Once Lin Xuan said this, the Tianshi suddenly understood.

He had been blinded by immortality and had forgotten the fundamental reason.

Lin Xuan had achieved this result through his own cultivation.

This is completely non-replicable.

Let alone reaching the end of the path of Inner Elixir cultivation, in this world, the only one who has successfully cultivated the Inner Elixir is the one before him.

"Forget it, this matter is not for me, an old Daoist, to worry about anyway."

Lao Tianshi waved his hand.

He is also over a hundred years old.

Although his cultivation is passable, his lifespan has almost reached its end.

Since that is the case, then this matter is not for him to worry about.

"No wonder when you spoke of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, your tone seemed indifferent; compared to this fundamental Dao, the Eight Extraordinary Techniques truly count for nothing."

"One cannot put it that way; although they are techniques, techniques have their own merits, it is just that they are indeed of no benefit to cultivation."

Lin Xuan shook his head slightly and said.

He does not fully understand the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, and perhaps what he said is not entirely correct.

It is not impossible that Wugensheng created another path that leads directly to the Dao.

But for him, his words were indeed what he thought in his heart.

Qing Bai Er She followed Lin Xuan quietly, looking at Lin Xuan with adoring eyes.

Their benefactor is truly going to become an Immortal in the future; by following their benefactor, they will also be able to bask in the glory and become Immortals.

The group quieted down.

After arriving at Tian Jinzhong's residence, Lao Tianshi left to attend to matters, and Lin Xuan helped Tian Jinzhong repair his meridians.

Gong Qing, however, was somewhat restless.

He had always felt that what he was doing was very noble and lofty.

This was also the driving force that had always pushed him to do these things.

But the conversation between Lin Xuan and the Tianshi just now made Gong Qing understand Lin Xuan's attitude toward him.

Perhaps, his identity and all that he has done count for nothing in his eyes.

Secrets?

The Eight Extraordinary Techniques?

A trace of confusion flashed through Gong Qing's heart.

But after the confusion, his eyes suddenly became firm.

It is very simple; he has no path back.

His identity is destined to be incompatible with the Tianshi Mansion.

Just the act of concealing his identity and lurking in the Tianshi Mansion for over three years is enough for the Tianshi Mansion to not shelter him.

Lin Xuan has Lin Xuan's Dao.

And he has his own.

Lin Xuan helped Tian Jinzhong repair his meridians and chased Qing Bai Er She and Gong Qing out.

Gong Qing left and sent the message out.

And the people of All-Nature who received the message also suppressed other thoughts in their hearts, waiting for the time to arrive.

Taking action now is certainly not possible.

After all, there are too many experts.

Once the Luo Tian Grand Ritual ends, many people will likely leave.

That is the best opportunity to act.

An opportunity to infiltrate Longhu Mountain on such a large scale only comes once.

Many people do not want to give up.

As for what the consequences will be, it is up to fate.

In Tian Jinzhong's room, Lin Xuan withdrew the cyan-green lightning from his hands, looked at Tian Jinzhong, who was suffused with a layer of golden light, and chuckled lightly.

"How is it?"

"Good!"

Tian Jinzhong was also somewhat excited.

Although he had already let go of it after so many years.

However, casting the Golden Light Spell of Longhu Mountain once again still made Tian Jinzhong, who had practiced Quiet Meditation for many years, somewhat emotional.

"There is something I must tell you, Senior."

Watching the layer of deep golden light surging from Tian Jinzhong's body, Lin Xuan felt a stir in his heart and spoke up.

Tian Jinzhong, who was currently casting the Golden Light Spell, was taken aback and looked at Lin Xuan with a surprised expression.

"Just say what you have to say directly; I am not the Senior Brother."

Lin Xuan pointed out the identity of Gong Qing.

"After all, this is a matter for your Longhu Mountain, and although I know his identity, I have no evidence; as for his purpose in infiltrating Longhu Mountain, I believe you can guess it, Senior."

"So, this is the matter you were discussing with the Senior Brother just now."

Tian Jinzhong realized, then revealed a bitter smile.

"It seems that as long as I am not dead, such things will continue to appear in the future."

"If he had infiltrated Baiyun Guan, I naturally would not keep him, but since it is an internal matter of your Tianshi Mansion, you can decide for yourselves how to handle it."

"Good, I understand, thank you."

Tian Jinzhong nodded, though his expression had calmed down by this time.

Lin Xuan glanced at Tian Jinzhong, and blue-green thunder appeared in his hand once again.

"Forget it, I don't want to delay so long on my end either; you have profound cultivation, Senior, and your years of Quiet Meditation practice might even be stronger than the Tianshi's."

As Lin Xuan's words fell, the blue-green thunder flew out.

Subsequently, Tian Jinzhong's complexion changed; the places where his hands and feet had been severed began to heat up and itch, with bones and flesh growing rapidly and meridians forming.

Lin Xuan stood up.

"I have finished the task for you, Senior; as for the reward, the Tianshi has already given it, so you need not dwell on it, Senior."

After saying this, Lin Xuan walked straight out of the room.

"Benefactor!"

"Let's go, let's go see another person!"

After saying this, Lin Xuan lifted his feet and left.

Another person?

Er She was somewhat curious but did not ask further, following behind Lin Xuan as he left.

Inside the room, Tian Jinzhong gritted his teeth, enduring the sensation of discomfort.

Fortunately, it did not take very long.

In just a few minutes, his hands and feet had regrown.

Lifting his hands to move them a few times, Tian Jinzhong tucked his hands back into his sleeves.

"Is what happened to Xiao Yuzi true?"

With his hands and feet restored, Tian Jinzhong did not feel a strong sense of joy.

On the contrary, there was Xiao Yuzi.

He had been with him for three years.

Letting out a long sigh, the room fell into silence.

"So, you want me to take you to see that person from Baiyun Guan?"

Xu Si stared at Liao Zhong, speechless.

"What? Little Si, you won't even help with this favor?"

"It's not that, Lao Liao, that's not how you put it; it's not that I won't help, but I don't even know that person."

Xu Si waved his hand, though his gaze shifted to Chen Duo, who was standing behind Liao Zhong.

"You should know something about her situation, so I am counting on you this time."

Liao Zhong noticed Xu Si's gaze.

"Lao Liao, this matter is not easy to handle."

Regarding the events of four years ago, although the final outcome was decent and no greater incident occurred.

But the Company and Baiyun Guan actually have their own power struggles.

You are going to ask for a favor now; why would they help you?

"We must at least try!"

Liao Zhong said.

He did not explicitly state the reason, as Xu Si likely did not know about the matter of the Yimu Divine Thunder.

Xu Si frowned upon hearing this, and finally nodded helplessly.

"I will take you there at most, but after that, I won't be involved."
