Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 310 - 290: The Four Great Hermits!

310 Chapter 290: The Four Great Hermits!

"Yuu Mountain Daoist."

"Longevity Technique."

Feiyun Island.

Lu Qingfeng's thoughts pondered with anticipation—

"During the Core Formation Stage of cultivation, whether it's reaching the Nine Revolutions True Body in the Solid Pill Realm or the Nine Layers of Gang Sha in the Gathering Law Realm, both require a long time. The former can be achieved in at most three to five hundred years, whereas for the latter, refining the Gang Sha isn't difficult for me. However, finding the Earth Evil Yin Vein and Heavenly Gang Qi is not easy. Any delay, should one become fixated and encounter ill-fated cultivation, would fearfully end like those in the Black Star Realm, where even after three thousand years of prolonged life, one cannot cross into the Gathering Law Realm."

"To rashly achieve it without seeking the Nine Layers of Gang Sha, with experience from the game, advancing to Primordial Spirit would not be hard."

"But—"

Lu Qingfeng shook his head.

With "Primordial" in hand, there obviously lies a hope to become stronger, so naturally, he was not willing to settle for just getting by.

The intention was to seek more longevity techniques in the game, then further advance the cultivation of the "Seven Beasts Small Divine Number," to conveniently calculate the precise locations of Gang Sha.

But unexpectedly.

In reality, another path had appeared earlier.

"Black Death Swamp."

"Yuu Mountain Immortal Mansion."

Lu Qingfeng invoked the spell, and his form vanished in an instant—it was the application of the Invisibility Technique, combined with the Visualization of the Gonggong Demon God recently achieved after ascending to the Spirit Void, to distance himself from the water.

He silently left the Xuanyuan Water Realm.

Entering the deep mountains, Lu Qingfeng brushed his face with a hand and his appearance and form instantly changed.

From a slim figure, he became a burly and tall man. His long hair quickly turned silver-white. His cyan robe was exchanged for a yellow one, transforming from the appearance of a handsome young man to that of a stern, cold-faced elder.

White streaks now adorned the tips of his eyebrows and temples.

His eyes shifted from gentle and indifferent to domineering and piercing.

Though these words seem to take time to describe.

In reality, it was just a moment, and Lu Qingfeng had completely transformed into another person.

His cultivation concealed, becoming hazy and elusive, even the aura of his cultivation technique had greatly changed.

"Concealing Technique."

"Transformation Technique."

"Using both, even a Primordial Spirit Practitioner would hardly discern my true appearance."

The 'Yellow Robed Elder' let out a hearty laugh, took out a green and purple two-colored ring from his storage bag and slipped it onto his left wrist, and placed a golden ring on his right wrist.

He flipped his right palm, and a three-foot-tall, eight-layered palace materialized in his hand.

He made another sweep in his storage bag, and twenty-three inch-sized small banners lined up in the air. The elder sensed one, took it in hand, and the rest were put away in the storage bag.

Holding the small banner with a shake.

Rainbows enveloped him.

And then, he traveled far beyond the heavens.

...

Xuanyuan Realm, White Bone Realm, and Heavenly Travel Realm bordered each other.

Chao Tian Pool and Illusion Wave Sea were the boundaries between Xuanyuan Realm and White Bone Realm.

Between White Bone Realm and the Heavenly Travel Realm stretched a long range of unnamed mountains. In recent years, claiming the title 'Yellow Robe', a formidable cultivator known as 'Yellow Robed Old Monster' took possession of the high mountain, since then it has been called 'Yellow Robe Mountain.'

Yellow Robe Mountain Main Peak.

Transformed into the Yellow Robed Elder, Lu Qingfeng, holding a precious pagoda, walked out of his cave dwelling.

In an instant, he sent out four streams of spirit light, disappearing into the void.

Before long.

Four beams of light whistled in, landing before Lu Qingfeng.

"Greetings, Mountain Master."

The four individuals landed and each paid their respects to Lu Qingfeng.

He nodded slightly.

Yellow Robed Old Monster.

This was the fourth identity Lu Qingfeng used to traverse the Three Realms.

The first three—

One as a practitioner of Xuanyuan Sect, now the Hall Master of the Combined Pill Hall of Xuanyuan Sect, with Spirit Void Cultivation, a Fourth Rank Alchemist.

Two, as the Fiery Fire Wanderer of Illusion Wave Sea, a cultivator of the "Twelve Heavenly Demon God Skill," a Fifth-Order Alchemist and Artifact Refiner, with combat power comparable to Jiupan Po and Han Ji, at the level of the Solid Pill Realm.

Three, as the Changqing Daoist the Carefree Hermit, practicing the "Five Thunder Heart Sutra." Commanding thunder, vanquishing demons, sweeping the world of injustices.

At last.

The present 'Yellow Robed Old Monster,' situated between White Bone and Heavenly Travel Realms, leading four powerful Loose Cultivators. Amidst the mountains, gathering numerous demons, subtly rivaling the Xuanyuan Sect, White Bone Demon Sect, and Heavenly Travel Mountain in stature.

Easily shifting between four identities, the latter three have made a huge name for themselves in the realms. Any one of them would cause a sensation on their own.

Among them.

The Fiery Fire Wanderer is most detached, excelling in Alchemy and Artifact Refining.

The Changqing Daoist despises evil, the most carefree.

The Yellow Robed Old Monster has a quirky nature, the most inscrutable.

At this moment, standing before Lu Qingfeng, were four of the notorious 'Five Wanderers' of the Three Realms. Before the Fiery Fire Wanderer made a name in Illusion Wave Sea, they were collectively known as the 'Four Wanderers.'

All were Solid Pill Realm powerhouses, each with their own unique methods.

Even the Three Sects' recruitment attempts were rejected.

Lu Qingfeng, with the identity of 'Yellow Robed Old Monster,' scouted them one by one, winning them over with a mix of kindness and force, shocking the Three Realms.

Among the four, the Flower Lady, with her delicate features and captivating phoenix eyes, long hair cascading down, was undoubtedly a paragon of beauty. The Flower Lady looked towards Lu Qingfeng with a smile, "I wonder, what important matter has the Mountain Master summoned me and my three Daoist Brothers for?"

Lu Qingfeng glanced at the Flower Lady, a slight sneer in his heart.

Poison Scorpion.

That's what they say about people like the Flower Lady.

Her mastery over Illusion Techniques is high; even a true Jiedan True Man could be fooled in an unguarded moment. She conceals deadly magic artifacts called 'Mandarin Duck Scissors,' nefariously designed to damage the physical body. If a True Body is not yet formed and she strikes without being evaded, one could be cut in two. Even a Jiedan True Man who has forged a True Body must be extremely cautious; a moment of carelessness could result in irreversible regret.

However.

Being able to cultivate to the Solid Pill Realm as an independent practitioner, she would be considered a first-class powerhouse even among the Three Sects.

Certainly not someone to be underestimated.

Not just the Flower Lady.

The remaining Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer, Gui Cang Wanderer, and Vajra Wanderer also each have their capabilities, not to be underestimated.

Their expressions gave away nothing.

Lu Qingfeng spoke indifferently, "At the southern end of the White Bone Realm, there is a Black Death Swamp. After thirty years, the Immortal Shell has reappeared. Someone has discovered the Immortal Mansion left behind by the Yuu Mountain Daoist from thirteen thousand years ago."

"Yuu Mountain Daoist?"

Flower Lady Wanderer's beautiful eyes swirled, her mouth slightly open, every move full of enchantment, she asked in surprise, "Is the Mountain Master referring to the Yuu Mountain Daoist famed for the Longevity Technique in the Biyang Lake Territory?"

The reputation of the Yuu Mountain Daoist was indeed not small.

It was not just the Xuanyuan Sect's True People who were mostly aware of him, even the independent practitioner Flower Lady Wanderer could recite it at once.

"That's right."

Lu Qingfeng nodded.

"Hiss!"

"The Yuu Mountain Daoist is no small figure."

"If it really is his Immortal Mansion left behind, it might very well contain the Longevity Technique. If we could get our hands on it—"

Gui Cang Wanderer, potbellied with a fat face, now bulged his eyes, which were barely visible between the rolls of fat on his face, and radiated brilliance.

Not just Gui Cang Wanderer.

Flower Lady Wanderer and Vajra Wanderer felt the same.

Only the towering and robust Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer, standing nine feet tall, emitted a cold mist from his mouth and said in a deep voice, "That darn Yuu Mountain Daoist, is he going to live longer than me?"

Flower Lady Wanderer looked at Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer and smiled with pursed lips, "Daoist Brother Cold Rhinoceros is of an exotic kind from the depths of Biyang Lake, who gained enlightenment as a Cold Rhinoceros. With a long life, how could Human Clan Cultivators, no matter how long-lived, compare with you?"

Lu Qingfeng remained unmoved.

Out of the four wanderers, only Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer was an Exotic Beast that had attained enlightenment, having lived for who knows how many millennia. Rising to the Core Formation Stage as the Jiedan Demon King and establishing the fame of Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer, nearly two to three thousand years had passed.

Indeed, it was odd to marvel at the Yuu Mountain Daoist in front of him.

"Hmph hmph."

"What Sister Flower Lady said makes sense."

Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer continued humming in agreement, looking at Lu Qingfeng, "Mountain Master is also a Human Clan Cultivator and must also value the Longevity Technique left by Yuu Mountain Daoist. Just give the word, and I, Old Cold, will swear an oath to the Heart Demon to obey the Mountain Master's command for five hundred years without fail."

As if you would dare break your word!

Gui Cang Wanderer saw the righteous words of Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer and inwardly scorned him. Among the four wanderers back then, it was Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer who was the roughest, relying on his exotic beast tough skin and thick flesh, unwilling to submit. Eventually, he was severely wounded by the Yellow Robed Old Monster's Two Qi Rings and then suppressed by the Demon Suppressing Golden Ring and tortured.

Finally, he submitted.

After receiving the Secret Technique, he became more diligent than anyone else.

Despite seeming straightforward, in fact, he had lived for thousands, nearly ten thousand years, and was slick and shrewd beyond words.

"I called you all here today for this very reason."

"The Immortal Mansion has yet to appear. You four go to the Black Death Swamp to locate the exact position of the Immortal Mansion. As soon as the Immortal Mansion emerges, report back immediately."

The emergence of the Immortal Mansion.

The True People of the Xuanyuan Sect would undoubtedly come out in full force to compete for the Immortal Mansion. As the Hall Master of the Combined Pill Hall, Lu Qingfeng could be informed, but with Spirit Void Cultivation, he absolutely could not participate.

If he wanted to obtain the Longevity Technique from the Yuu Mountain Immortal Mansion.

He would have to rely on his identity as the Yellow Robed Old Monster, command the four wanderers under him, and call upon the Independent Practitioners from the Three Realms.

By then, he would have the power to compete with both the White Bone Demon Sect and Heavenly Travel Mountain.

It would add a glimmer of hope.

Furthermore.

Should the Longevity Technique fall into the hands of the Xuanyuan Sect, obtaining it from the sect as the Hall Master of the Combined Pill Hall would be far less desirable than directly holding the Longevity Technique in his hand.

"Rest assured, Mountain Master."

"We will certainly not be negligent."

Despite inwardly despising Cold Rhinoceros Wanderer, Gui Cang Wanderer did not want to fall behind and loudly responded.

Flower Lady Wanderer and Vajra Wanderer also agreed.

Before leaving, Lu Qingfeng gave one last instruction, "Now Yellow Robe Mountain has already made enemies with both the White Bone Demon Sect and Heavenly Travel Mountain. It is imperative to avoid making enemies with the Xuanyuan Sect. If you encounter Xuanyuan Sect Cultivators, regardless of their cultivation level, you can only be friendly and not conflict. If the Xuanyuan Sect Cultivators initiate a confrontation, you must not harm their lives. Any violation of this, and do not blame me for being merciless."

"Yes."

The four wanderers each responded. freёweɓnovel.com

Only then did Lu Qingfeng turn around to return to his cave dwelling. The cave's Array flickered, isolating the inside from the outside.

"The Xuanyuan Sect."

The four wanderers exchanged glances, each seeing something different in the others' eyes.

They mixed within the Three Realms, and even as Independent Practitioners, they rose rapidly; how could they be ignorant?

Since the Yellow Robed Old Monster could afford to make enemies out of both Heavenly Travel Mountain and the White Bone Demon Sect, why would he care about adding another Xuanyuan Sect, which was on par with them?

This warning was nothing more than an excuse.

"This old fellow must have some connection with the Xuanyuan Sect."

Flower Lady Wanderer's mind flickered.

Not dwelling on it.

She turned into a tunneling light and disappeared from Yellow Robe Mountain.

Cold Rhinoceros, Gui Cang, and Vajra, the three wanderers, also each harnessed their tunneling light and rapidly traveled thousands of miles.

...

Sending the four wanderers to Black Death Swamp.

Lu Qingfeng paid no mind to what the four were thinking and hurriedly returned to Feiyun Island in the Xuanyuan Water Realm.

The Lifespan Extension Pill had not yet been refined successfully; he could not afford to stay away for long.

Fortunately, over the years, through his three identities as the Fiery Fire Wanderer, Changqing Daoist, and Yellow Robed Old Monster, he had gathered countless precious materials. Not only had he refined magic artifacts such as the Demon Suppressing Golden Ring and Two Qi Rings from Black Star Realm's deciphered laws, but he had also crafted numerous Fifth-Order and Fourth-Order Mist Banners.

Not to mention the ones on Qingyu and Qing Peak.

Lu Qingfeng himself had six Fifth-Order Mist Banners and seventeen Fourth-Order Mist Banners.

Within a single day, he could travel anywhere within the Three Realms.

This was also key to his effortless management of four identities.

Back to Feiyun Island.

Focus on Alchemy.

Although the Yuu Mountain Immortal Mansion was set to emerge soon, according to information from the Xuanyuan Sect, it would take at least a year and a half for the numerous Arrays surrounding the Immortal Mansion to dissipate.

He still had time to prepare.

In a blink of an eye.

Two months had passed since the death of the Fourteenth Generation and the beginning of the Fifteenth Generation.
