Chapter 236 Longevity Refining Pearl
Second senior brother Ling Xiao is very thick-skinned.
He was caught doing something bad by his junior fellow apprentice, but he showed no sign of surprise at all.
He even winked and asked Li Fan if he wanted to try it.
Before Li Fan could answer, the eldest senior brother's sword arrived in an instant.
The murderous aura was so strong that it scared the group of rebellious cats away.
The second brother smiled awkwardly, put away his pen, fled the cave in shame, and went to look for new toys to experience.
"Little Junior Brother, you must not learn from your Second Senior Brother."
"You must choose a serious avatar."
Si Xing gave an earnest instruction.
Li Fan nodded repeatedly in agreement.
…
There are many more interesting little episodes like this.
In general, the atmosphere within the Shenhua Dao sect is still very harmonious and friendly.
In such an atmosphere, Li Fan continued to stimulate the hidden power in his body and strengthen his weak body.
While practicing [transforming the body into others and being free].
It was the sixth year after Li Fan possessed and entered the virtual world.
From the distant horizon, came a series of rapid and breathtaking bell sounds.
When Li Fan heard the sound of the bell, he suddenly felt his blood boiling and he couldn't stop feeling fear in his heart.
The several senior brothers who were doing their own things were all awakened.
"This bell sound... is it the Zhaxian Bell?!"
Several brothers who came over after hearing the noise showed expressions of horror.
"The last time the Zhaxian Bell rang, I remember it was because the immortal species that were kept in captivity by the Immortal Sect collectively defected, right?"
"That's right. At that time, the ten great immortal sects issued a wanted order. Anyone who captured any of the fleeing immortals would be granted the [Hundred Longevity Pearl], which would add dozens or even hundreds of years to their lifespan."
"Not many monks could resist the temptation of living another hundred years. In order to fight for the heads of those who defected from the Immortal Clan, the monks killed each other fiercely, causing a huge bloody storm."
"I wonder what big event has happened in the world of immortal cultivation this time."
The brothers talked to each other with emotion.
Li Fan listened silently at the side, and when they paused in their conversation, he put on a very curious face and said, "Brother, what is the Immortality Seed? What is the Hundred Longevity Pearl?"
This time, the seniors did not avoid answering the questions as they usually did.
Second Senior Brother Ling Xiao sighed, his eyes full of envy as he said, "Little Junior Brother, you have to know that God is never fair."
"For ordinary humans, if they can live for a hundred years, they can be considered long-lived."
"Even if you become an immortal cultivator, your life span of several thousand years is the limit unless you reach the realm of immortality."
Ling Xiao paused and said in a deep voice: "Of course, in this world, there are some creatures that are born with extremely long lifespans. Even ordinary members of the tribe, without any powerful cultivation, can easily live for one or two thousand years."
"How unfair this is to humans with their short life spans!"
"Eternal Life Seed..." Li Fan's heart moved.
Before he traveled through time, he had seen settings similar to the immortal species in various strange novels.
However, in the real world of immortal cultivation, no information about the immortal seed has ever been seen.
Not to mention seeing the living immortal species with your own eyes.
"Senior Brother, what do these immortal species look like? Are they similar to the monsters in the legends?" Li Fan looked at Ling Xiao with innocent eyes and asked loudly.
Ling Xiao patted his junior brother's head and explained to Li Fan: "Haha, there are many. Some are shaped like strange beasts, but can speak human language."
"Some are plant and tree spirits."
"Some of them look like humans, and all the members of the community are extremely handsome..."
"By the way, Senior Brother, I once wrote a book called "Stories of Wind and Moon", the protagonists of which are the immortals on a distant continent. I'll see if there are any left later..."
Ling Xiao suddenly changed the topic and his face couldn't help but become excited.
Before he could finish, the eldest brother's face turned dark and he appeared behind him.
The second brother had to awkwardly end the topic that was not suitable for children and get back on track.
"Um, what was I talking about just now? Oh, right, the Immortal Seed..."
"There is a special kind of immortal species. They are almost exactly the same as ordinary humans. In other words, they are humans."
"The only special thing about them is that they have a long life span that is unattainable for ordinary people."
"These people lurk among the crowd and live cautiously. Every once in a while, they have to change their appearance, change their identity, and start a new life to avoid being discovered."
Li Fan immediately asked, "Are you afraid of being discovered? Why? Is it related to the Longevity Pearl?"
Ling Xiao said seriously: "Junior brother, imagine. You can only live for a hundred years, and you are already old. But others are still young when they are hundreds or even thousands of years old. Wouldn't you feel it is unfair and angry?"
Li Fan nodded heavily and said, "How infuriating! How unfair!"
"Yes, normal people can hardly tolerate this gap. As mentioned before, some immortal species do not have any powerful cultivation."
“Humph, it’s just like the saying goes, ‘It’s a crime to possess a treasure.’ How could those cultivators who have reached the stage of Divine Transformation or the stage of Unity of Dao but have no hope of immortality not be jealous of these immortals?”
Ling Xiao lowered his voice and said, "Those great sects of immortals have mastered a secret method of [Transformation and Reincarnation], which can extract the lifespan of living beings and put it to good use."
"And the life span extracted from the Immortality Seed is the purest."
"Tens of thousands of mortals, after years of extraction, can only condense a few longevity fruits, adding more than a hundred years to their lifespan."
"But the life span provided by an immortal species can be refined into dozens or even hundreds of [Longevity Pearls]."
Ling Xiao couldn't help but reveal a hint of greed in his eyes: "The higher the cultivation of the immortal species, the higher the quality of the refined [Longevity Pearl] will be."
"Back then, I was fortunate enough to participate in the hunt for the immortal species and was given a [Hundred Longevity Pearl]. After swallowing it, I felt as if I was floating in the air, as if I had returned to my youth."
“That feeling…”
Ling smiled and smacked his lips, savoring the taste.
"If the [Hundred-Year-Longevity Pearl] is like this, I wonder what the legendary [Thousand-Year-Longevity Pearl] or even [Ten-Thousand-Year-Longevity Pearl] would taste like."
At this time, the usually taciturn Third Senior Brother suddenly spoke up: "Xiaoxiao, with your cultivation level, even if you swallowed the Thousand Longevity Pearl by chance, you will just end up having your life span taken away by others."
Ling Xiao glanced at Lian Chang angrily: "Xiaoxiao? Is that something you can call me? Third brother, you are becoming more and more disrespectful."
The third brother folded his arms and looked at Ling Xiao with interest: "Why, do you want to fight with me?"
Ling Xiao was not afraid at all: "It seems that I haven't made a move for a long time, so you have an illusion."
"Today, I will fully demonstrate my authority as a senior brother!"
As they spoke, the two men started fighting.
The eldest brother, on the other hand, stood by and watched with a smile on his face.
What a warm and harmonious picture this is.
But soon the storm of war will tear it all to pieces.
