Chapter 227: 148. Demon Cultivators are indeed fickle!_2

“If it really is that thief, we’ll have to wait until we’ve secured the immortal fate in the Jiawu Realm and become immortals before we can trouble him!” the first ancestor master of Luoja Mountain said with a suppressed fury.

That was because the power of the Eight Dragon Palaces was enormous, especially the true dragon that was enshrined there, which was notoriously protective. If they had a conflict with Master Wu Ling, that bald thief would definitely be able to seek reinforcement from the high-level cultivators of the Eight Dragon Palaces.

This fact had made countless people both love and hate the Eight Dragon Palaces, desperately wishing to be accepted into their ranks.

Even these two ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain felt the same way.

In the Jiawu Realm, they were revered ancestor masters, high-level practitioners who could alter the weather with a mere wave of their hand. But in the Land of the Four Pillars, while still considered esteemed cultivators, they were only capable of protecting themselves.

The difference in status was indeed significant.

While these two ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain were discussing, four figures came riding upon the clouds.

The duo was momentarily stunned by the sight of these four figures, as they were their fellow disciples, all also practitioners of the third testament. Unlike them, these four had recently taken on a task that could potentially grant them a traveling position in the heavenly realms. According to reason, they should not have appeared there at that time.

After all, they had already sent down their soul divisions to the Jiawu Realm.

As soon as these four figures arrived, they inquired, “Senior brothers, have your souls suffered any damage?”

Hearing this, even though the two ancestor masters of Luoja Mountain were rather slow to react, they suddenly realized, “You’ve also suffered damage to your souls? This is bad, something must have happened to our soul divisions in the Jiawu Realm!”

Being so far away and with limited power, they were unable to know the detailed state of their incarnations. After all, the incarnations they had created were different from those of the Sword Temple.

They had chosen Luoja Mountain disciples in the Jiawu Realm who possessed exceptional fortunes, whereas the Sword Temple’s incarnational shells were originally invisible beings who had spent three hundred years in the Jiawu Realm, favored yet also rejected by destiny.

“Who could possibly destroy our incarnations along with our soul divisions?” Realizing this, the ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain found the idea inconceivable.

Being of the same third testament, they were very aware of the difficulty in their true selves returning to the Jiawu Realm.

Without their incarnations, even if the opponent also utilized incarnations to besiege them, they wouldn’t have been unable to send back even the slightest message through their soul division.

“Just before the loss of several senior brothers’ incarnations, it was precisely when little sister was searching for a descendent body, which is likely related to this incident,” the one female cultivator of the third testament among the four figures said.

In those years, a total of seven ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain ascended to heaven, five males and two females, one of which was the second senior sister and the other was the youngest junior sister.

The second senior sister, soon after her ascension, had obtained a traveling position in the heavenly court.

And then they lost contact with her.

Now, hearing their junior sister say this, the other five immediately understood.

However, understanding aside, the five of them still found it hard to believe that their soul divisions could be destroyed-that they had been decimated in such a way they couldn’t even transmit information back!

“Could there really be someone in the Jiawu Realm with such ability?”

“Could it be that Tan Shuchang?”

After thinking it over, these ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain recalled someone who hadn’t seemed particularly noteworthy to them previously. Although Tan Shuchang’s achievement of immortality in the Jiawu Realm under the suppression of destiny had indeed surprised them, it had only been a surprise.

After all, they had long reached the third testament.

Between the third testament and the first, despite seeming like they were at the same stage, the difference was enormous. To any cultivator who had reached the first testament, even with overwhelming combat prowess, they could be easily crushed.

Unless that person possessed a powerful Immortal artifact!

But by now, these ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain inevitably thought of Tan Shuchang, as he was the strongest cultivator in the Jiawu Realm at the moment.

“Let’s contact Luoja Mountain once more. If it truly is that child, on the day we can return, we’ll flay his skin and pull out his tendons!” an ancestor master from Luoja Mountain said bitterly.

The other ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain nodded in agreement, considering that this person had caused them to lose an Immortal Pill!

That was an Immortal Pill they had spent a century to find, procuring children born during the yin days of a yin month in a yin year, and then trading with the Extreme Yin Immortal for it!

They had intended to keep it for when they obtained their Immortal Position, to supplement their earthly power.

However, as the ancestor masters from Luoja Mountain prepared to contact their mountain again, they were shocked to discover that no matter how they tried, there was no response from Luoja Mountain in the Jiawu Realm.

…

“Although this ‘Technique Five’ doesn’t sound at all powerful and seems rather simple, the method itself is truly unfathomable,” Tan Shuchang thought as he, through the soul division of the three Luoja Mountain ancestor masters, successfully cultivated the “Comprehension of Transcending the Self Scripture, achieving Technique Five.”

At that moment, a tiny, clear spring emerged at the center of Tan Shuchang’s balanced life force.

No bigger than the nail on a pinky finger, the spring flowed with a continuous stream of life essence.

If previously, Tan Shuchang’s lifespan seemed almost limitless due to a certain equilibrium, then this spring of life, cultivated through “Comprehension of Transcending the Self Scripture, achieving Technique Five,” meant that he would never age.

From that point on, he had truly achieved everlasting life!
