Eternal Life by Daily Divination

...

After returning to the Southern Domain, Ou Lingshan invited Li Chang’an to be a guest at the Ou Family’s temporary clan grounds.

Li Chang’an refused. He had no desire to linger outside for too long. Returning to his cultivation was the proper way forward.

He returned to Changqing Mountain and went into seclusion in his cave residence.

Changqing Mountain was peaceful and quiet.

Jiang Muyu, Qi Yao, and Guo Zesheng had all temporarily left the cave residence.

Using clues they had obtained earlier, they were carefully searching the Southern Domain, trying to find the Ancient Pill Formulas left behind by that elder.

But Li Chang’an didn’t have to do a thing.

Once they found the Ancient Pill Formulas, they would naturally copy a set for him.

’This feeling of reaping rewards without doing any of the work is simply wonderful.’

The corners of Li Chang’an’s mouth lifted. He was greatly enjoying his current days of cultivation.

「A few days later.」

He suddenly received a message.

’The Xiahou Clan has been annihilated?’

Seeing this news, Li Chang’an wasn’t particularly surprised.

While he was alive, Xiahou Hong had committed countless evil deeds. His hands were stained with blood from his numerous crimes, earning him the hatred of countless people.

When he was still alive, his enemies were wary of his Fake Pill strength and didn’t dare to seek revenge.

Ever since he was slain by Li Chang’an, the Xiahou Clan’s situation had become difficult.

Over the years, the Xiahou Clan had been in constant retreat, selling off their assets in various places. They were trying to weather the crisis until they could cultivate a new Golden Core Master.

However, just last night, a band of Tribulation Cultivators launched a sudden assault on the Xiahou Clan.

They raided not only the clan estate but also their properties in various locations, slaughtering every last Xiahou Clan Cultivator they found.

By morning, the clan’s estate and its properties were soaked in blood and littered with corpses.

Only a few young disciples cultivating on Yellow Crane Mountain escaped the calamity.

’A band of Tribulation Cultivators...’

Li Chang’an looked at the contents of the message, lost in thought.

If he wasn’t mistaken, this band of Tribulation Cultivators was likely comprised of Huanghe Alliance cultivators in disguise.

Ye Hao had handled this matter meticulously. After all, the Huanghe Alliance was now considered a Righteous Influence and could no longer act with such impunity. Disguising themselves as Tribulation Cultivators had been essential.

’The Xiahou Clan is now history. Ye Hao will likely hunt down and eliminate the few surviving disciples one by one.’

The fall of a Golden Core Family was destined to be recorded in the history of the Southern Domain.

Although the Xiahou Family was not one of the Seven Great Noble Families, just an affiliated family of Yellow Crane Immortal City.

But at its peak, it was in no way weaker than families like the Mo or the Zhou.

With the fall of the Xiahou Clan, the bloody pall hanging over the entire Southern Domain grew even heavier.

Li Chang’an had long sensed the coming of a chaotic era. He just hoped these turbulent times wouldn’t trigger a great calamity.

...

「One month later.」

Ou Lingshan and Ou Lingcan paid a visit.

The brother and sister pair came here, naturally, to thank Li Chang’an.

"You’ve recovered quite well."

Li Chang’an glanced at Ou Lingcan.

The young man was no longer a withered husk. His deficiencies had been replenished. Although he still looked a bit weak, it no longer affected his normal cultivation.

Ou Lingcan bowed deeply and thanked him sincerely. "It’s all thanks to Elder Li for saving me. If not for you, I’m afraid I would have already died in the Western Domain and become a pile of dry bones."

"It was no trouble at all."

Li Chang’an waved his hand dismissively.

Ou Lingshan, for her part, handed over a Storage Pouch. Inside were some of the Body Refining Treasures she had collected during this time.

In addition, there were also four Jade Scrolls.

They contained the Ou Family’s Celestial Grade Technique, two Celestial Grade Magic arts, and a Tier Three Top Grade Refining Inheritance.

This was what Ou Tianye had specifically instructed Ou Lingshan to give to Li Chang’an.

"Daoist Li, our ancestor said you have done the Ou Family a great service. The Ou Family doesn’t have much of great value to offer, so we can only give you our family’s inheritance."

Li Chang’an did not refuse.

The Tier Three Top Grade Refining Inheritance wasn’t of much use to him.

He was already a Tier Three Top Grade Refiner and was faintly approaching the Fourth Grade.

The Celestial Grade Technique and Celestial Grade Magic, however, could be added to Changqing Mountain’s Library.

The current collection in Changqing Mountain’s Library was in no way inferior to that of any Golden Core Influence in the Southern Domain.

Ou Lingshan stated, "Daoist Li, I will find a way to gather the remaining Treasures on the list for you."

"There’s no need to rush."

Li Chang’an’s tone was calm, without a trace of urgency.

He took out Spirit Tea and Spirit Fruits, inviting the two to sit and talk at their leisure.

...

「Meanwhile, in the Western Domain.」

Deep within Mandarin Duck Valley, inside a secret chamber.

Nearly twenty Golden Core Masters and Demon Kings from Mandarin Duck Valley had gathered to discuss matters in the secret chamber.

Liu Feiyan, due to her special status, sat in the main seat.

"I’m sure you have all sensed it. The Cultivation Realm is growing more and more chaotic. It’s not just our Western Domain and the Southern Domain that are at war; conflicts have also erupted in the Eastern Domain and the Northern Domain."

As soon as she finished speaking, the other Masters and Demon Kings voiced their agreement.

"Daoist Liu is right."

"I have been feeling restless lately. I’m afraid a chaotic era is upon us."

"I have the same feeling. All of you must be prepared. I fear Mandarin Duck Valley will not remain peaceful for much longer..."

"..."

After some discussion, they all decided to first eliminate Mandarin Duck Valley’s external enemies.

This was to prevent Mandarin Duck Valley from being besieged by a host of enemies when the chaotic era arrived.

"That Li Chang’an from Changqing Mountain is Mandarin Duck Valley’s primary enemy. We must kill him as soon as possible, or he will most likely become an endless source of trouble."

Liu Feiyan’s voice was ice-cold as she brought up Li Chang’an’s name.

No one present was surprised by this.

They all knew of Liu Feiyan’s intense hatred for Li Chang’an.

But Changqing Mountain was in the heart of the Southern Domain and was protected by an Array. It would be very difficult to deal with, and no one wanted to take the risk.

Shi Hu Master was originally in charge of dealing with Li Chang’an, but he met with an accident.

Liu Feiyan announced, "Huang Sha True Monarch has already promised me that he will send his third disciple, Wei Xu, to kill Li Chang’an. From now on, you will all cooperate with him as much as possible."
