Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 472: Longevity and Life Extension

Shen Xuan looked at the exquisite young lady before him, as beautiful as a fish sinking or a goose falling, and his first thought was to smack her on the head.

To thoroughly awaken this muddle-headed Chen Huixue.

However, she’s already twenty.

Really not appropriate to lay a hand on her.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Shen Xuan’s expression changed as he angrily said, "I’ve told you before, besides your biological parents, no one can be fully trusted!"

As for Chen Huixue’s biological parents, even Shen Xuan didn’t know where they were.

"The one you trust the most is the one who can hurt you the deepest!"

"Alchemy, Talisman Dao, these cultivation techniques are just supplementary."

"What truly determines your path is still your realm cultivation and actual combat power."

Seeing Shen Xuan’s anger, Chen Huixue plopped to her knees, her face flushed, not daring to speak.

"Stand up!"

Shen Xuan glared at Chen Huixue.

"Listen carefully. You were born with an Ice Spirit Body, and this is not your blessing, but your misfortune."

"The True Master of True Intent Sect is merely approaching the end of his lifespan, not yet completely in despair."

"When he becomes desperate, anything can happen."

"Don’t count on me, I dare not provoke a Sect True Master."

"Don’t count on the Chen Family from Divine Dragon Island either; they reside here long-term, have numerous clan members, and certainly don’t want to offend a Sect True Master."

"You can only rely on yourself."

Shen Xuan took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Cultivate diligently and establish a Dao Foundation as soon as possible."

"If there’s enough time, I’ll try to arrange a meeting for you with someone."

"If she is willing to take you as a disciple, you can still save your life."

"Otherwise, only death awaits."

"Did you understand what I said?"

After Shen Xuan finished speaking.

Chen Huixue bowed in respect.

"Xue’Er has understood."

"Xue’Er will strive to cultivate diligently and will not let down Master Shen’s high expectations."

Shen Xuan waved his hand.

"Leave now. Go back and think carefully."

Chen Huixue bowed again in respect and silently left the Practice Room.

"This girl!"

Shen Xuan shook his head.

The world is treacherous.

Chen Huixue is inexperienced and cannot be allowed to grow up carefree.

"At twenty years old, she should be mature by now."

After scolding Chen Huixue, Shen Xuan felt relieved.

A feeling of jealousy vanquished.

Indeed, you shouldn’t keep anger bottled up inside.

It’s better to express it.

However, Shen Xuan was not trying to scare Chen Huixue with his words.

He sincerely hoped Chen Huixue would cultivate properly and establish an Upper Grade Dao Foundation.

Then recommend her to Master Cold Jade.

"It’s time to take the Longevity Spirit Pill."

Shen Xuan sat cross-legged, adjusting his breath.

Then, took out the freshly refined High-quality Life-Extending Pill.

"A regular Life Extension Pill requires ten thousand Spirit Stones and is still difficult to purchase."

"This High-quality Life-Extending Pill is worth at least twenty thousand Spirit Stones!"

However, Shen Xuan did not feel it was too precious.

To him, anything that could be bought with Spirit Stones wasn’t considered rare.

Shen Xuan calmly operated the Divine Hidden Sea Technique.

Within his Divine Soul, a yearning emerged.

Shen Xuan swallowed the High-quality Life-Extending Pill.

His entire body’s qi and blood surged.

Internal organs, blood circulation quickened, metabolism accelerated.

The nine-colored lotus magnificently bloomed.

An hour later.

Shen Xuan completely refined the medicine power of the High-quality Life-Extending Pill.

His vitality was exuberant, reversing age like a youthful teenager.

On the Mysterious Jade Talisman.

[Lifespan: 140/359]

Increased by eighteen years!

A typical Foundation Establishment Cultivator would gain about ten years when consuming a Life Extension Pill.

The High-quality Life-Extending Pill works slightly better.

The average increase is about thirteen or fourteen years.

His case, where one pill increased his lifespan by eighteen years, is quite rare.

"This must be the distinctiveness of the Divine Hidden Sea Technique and Endless Life skill?"

Shen Xuan felt delighted.

Currently, his lifespan exceeds that of a Fake Pill True Master.

Later, he plans to continue using High-quality Life-Extending Pills, High-quality Rejuvenation Pills.

Added to breakthroughs in realm.

By Foundation Establishment Perfection, his lifespan will be close to five hundred.

Double that of an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"With such an extended lifespan, I can fully embrace practicing Dragon Blood Boiling!"

Activating Dragon Blood Boiling enhances skill proficiency.

Even without Tier Three Divine Dragon descendant Essence Blood.

Through continuous study and practice, Shen Xuan can gradually elevate the Dragon Blood Boiling skill.

"Once my strength increases, the vast land becomes accessible!"

"Moreover, this is within the East Sea!"

The East Sea is his natural hunting ground.

The Tier Two Water Demons within Star Sea Nexus are no longer satisfying.

Actually, in the open sea, there are numerous underwater spirit veins, heavenly treasures, various minerals.

Just like on land.

These Heavenly and Earthly Treasures are guarded by formidable deep-sea Demon Kings.

A normal True Pill Cultivator finds it challenging to gain advantage from deep-sea Demon Kings.

Even if equipped with potent Magical Artifacts, success can be temporary.

Sustaining it would be arduous.

Shen Xuan pondered for a while.

"This matter can wait."

In his opinion, when it concerns life safety, without a ninety-nine percent certainty, one should avoid rash actions.

No treasure outweighs his life.

"First completely clear out the Tier Two Upper Grade Sea Demons within Star Sea Nexus!"

Shen Xuan estimated Star Sea Nexus housed over a hundred Tier Two Upper Grade Water Demons.

There are also a dozen or so Tier Two Top Grade Water Demons.

Enough to keep him occupied for quite some time.

He must also intensively cultivate Dragon Blood Boiling, attend to other flesh body skills, refine Life Extension Pills, Foundation Establishment Pills, create Thunder Talisman, Ice Talisman, Poison Talisman.

"Thankfully, I can directly ingest Fake Pills."

Shen Xuan took out Lu Zhanpeng’s Fake Pill, hesitated no more, and used the Ice Soul Sword to slice off a small piece, swallowed it, and began refining.

Having the experience from nibbling Xiao Jinsong’s Fake Pill last time.

Shen Xuan found it a familiar process.

The nine-colored treasure lotus is more effective than before.

At the same time, Shen Xuan activated the "White Bone Observation Internal Vision Method" to illuminate the white bone precious orb, suppressing the ferocious energy in the fake pill.

Amidst the changing treasure light, after the purification by the nine-colored treasure lotus, about thirty percent of the pure spiritual power flowed into Shen Xuan’s Dao Foundation Spirit Sea.

An hour later.

Shen Xuan opened his eyes and sighed softly.

In the dantian, the nine-colored treasure lotus had fully closed.

"Both are Fake Pill True Masters, but the quality difference is so great!"

"The same amount, yet the increase in spiritual power is only half of last time!"

"Even with complete refinement, it’s uncertain if I can advance to the eighth layer of Foundation Establishment!"

Shen Xuan silently calculated in his heart.

He couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.

Actually, this was to be expected.

Both are Fake Pill True Masters.

Lu Zhanpeng just solidified his pill and is still a clan cultivator.

While Xiao Jinsong has solidified his pill for many years, known as the number one Fake Pill True Master of the Cyan Cloud Sect.

They couldn’t possibly be compared.

The quality of Lu Zhanpeng’s fake pill reaching half of Xiao Jinsong’s is already quite good.

...

A few days later.

The Chen family patriarch came to visit.

In the reception hall.

After receiving the storage pouch handed over by the Chen family patriarch, Shen Xuan scanned it with his divine sense and found it matched the list of spirit medicines, only then did he inscribe a dharma seal on the spirit contract.

Subsequently, Shen Xuan handed a medicine bottle containing two Life Extension Pills to the Chen family patriarch.

After the Chen family patriarch also verified it, he inscribed a dharma seal on the spirit contract provided by Shen Xuan.

"Master Shen, impressive!"

After securing the Life Extension Pills, the Chen family patriarch praised.

"It’s just a minor skill."

Shen Xuan modestly replied.

The Chen family patriarch did not dispute this.

He smiled, envy rising thick in his heart.

If it weren’t for True Master Lu’s personal arrival,

he would never have believed it.

This reclusive independent cultivator talisman master residing with the Chen family is actually a Tier Two Upper Grade Water Technique Alchemist!

And the kind who can refine Life Extension Pills!

This matter is of great importance.

True Master Lu could not frequently travel back and forth from Immortal City Baiyun.

Life Extension Pills and the ingredients are invaluable.

The best messenger for joint alchemy between the two would be the Chen family patriarch.

Neither the Lu family of Immortal City Baiyun nor the cultivation clans of Xinghai or the pirate cultivators in the nearby sea do not need Life Extension Pills.

If other cultivation influences learned that the honored guest of the Chen family could refine Life Extension Pills,

it would certainly create a stir.

Even the Zhenyi Sect,

would be interested in this person.

In fact, the Chen family patriarch was also puzzled.

Why didn’t True Master Lu control Shen Fei?

Instead, let him stay on Chunfeng Island, refining pills alone.

This isn’t the style of a dominant cultivation clan.

"Either Shen Fei has some ultimate protective means, even making True Master Lu wary."

"Or his roots are extraordinary, with a powerful force backing him."

No matter the reason.

If True Master Lu doesn’t dare to act against him, neither would the Chen family patriarch.

After receiving True Master Lu’s promise of one Life Extension Pill per year as a reward, the Chen family patriarch gladly agreed.

It’s just a monthly trip to Immortal City Baiyun.

For him, it’s like leisure.

The transaction completed.

At Shen Xuan’s indication.

Chen Huixue came to visit the Chen family patriarch.

The Chen family patriarch offered a few words of encouragement.

"Hmm, Xue girl is great, keep up the effort."

He took out a Water Attribute Flying Sword, an upper-grade magical artifact, and gifted it to Chen Huixue.

After thanking him, Chen Huixue happily retired.

Shen Xuan inquired of the Chen family patriarch about the situation on the frontline battlefield between Yan and Song countries.

As he had anticipated.

The Great War of Sects between the two countries had turned into a war of attrition.

Yan Country holds a slight advantage in strength.

Song Country, however, has the home-field advantage.

Both countries’ sects have, without prior agreement, deployed teams of loose cultivators and clan cultivators to the frontlines.

The fighting has persisted for two years.

Even Fake Pill True Masters have yet to take action.

A large group of rookies pecking at each other.

Both countries’ sects are mobilizing loose cultivators to participate in the war.

Actively offering numerous Foundation Establishment Pills, Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects, etc., as rewards for those who achieve war merits.

Several typical examples have been established on the frontlines of each sect.

Originally obscure Qi Cultivation Perfection Loose Cultivators, gaining numerous war merits, exchanged them for Foundation Establishment Pills, establishing a Dao Foundation in one go.

Not only that, they continued to fight bravely, earning countless merits, and exchanged for Tier Two Spiritual Land within the sect, establishing ground for their operations.

The next step involves founding a cultivation clan, claiming ancestor status and Daoist sect.

Marrying multiple wives and concubines, expanding their lineage.

Such a round of publicity.

Many loose cultivators and unsuccessful clan cultivators were inspired and eagerly signed up to participate.

"Prosperous times nurture cattle and horses, chaotic times turn them to cannon fodder. Peace squeezes their strength, war utilizes their deaths."

"This round, the sects of Yan and Song won hands down."

Shen Xuan confirmed his judgment.

As long as the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of both countries’ sects do not take action.

The so-called Great War of Sects of Yan Country, in essence, is about plunder and attrition.

The cultivator army led by the Five Sects of Yan Kingdom treaded into Song Country’s border, occupied some territories, and annexed a few cultivation clans.

But to the Seven Sects of Song Country, it did not harm the fundamentals.

Therefore, the Seven Sects of Song, still had the capacity for joint development, advancing with the Wilderness to establish new Tier Three Spiritual Lands.

"So, the Seven Sects of Song had already planned. If they could fight, they would, if not, they would retreat."

"It’s merely about surrendering some spiritual lands. Anyway, those surrendered are all border spiritual lands, under subsidiary influence."

"The core interests are not greatly affected."

"Cultivation clans developing at the borders are themselves marginalized within the Seven Sects of Song."

As far as Shen Xuan knows, sect families mostly station themselves in the core regions of the Song sects.

Border spiritual lands, for the most part, are acquired by independent Foundation Establishment loose cultivators through sect auctions.

Tier Two Spiritual Lands with good conditions are typically out of reach for ordinary loose Foundation Establishment cultivators without background connections.

Ultimately, sect wars are actually a method of transferring internal conflicts.

And quite an effective method at that.

As the Chen family patriarch left, he told Shen Xuan some bad news.

The Sect True Master of the Zhenyi Sect is going to send a direct disciple to specially visit and evaluate Chen Huixue, under the pretense of selecting outstanding disciples.
