Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 306

Chapter 306 The Death of the Clone, Full of Misunderstandings (Please Subscribe)

A Heavenly-Rank Concealment Spell!

Li Chang’an was overjoyed; he needed this spell.

All the concealment treasures he had prepared were less practical than a Heavenly-Rank spell.

Furthermore,

according to the divination,

this special space was indeed related to Qingmu Tianjun.

“Perhaps there are records about him in the inheritance of his nominal disciples.”

Li Chang’an was somewhat tempted.

Without further hesitation, he immediately used his escape technique to enter the lake.

Thousands of feet below the lake’s surface, in the dark depths, there was a closed door.

Li Chang’an entered, and the surrounding lake water suddenly disappeared.

He arrived in a gray world.

Looking around,

the world was shrouded in a gray haze, filled with a cold aura, making it impossible to see anything in the distance.

Li Chang’an tried to use his divine sense to investigate the situation in the surrounding gray mist.

However,

just as Mu Xiaoqing had said,

this space suppressed divine sense extremely strongly.

He felt extremely strained, as if a thousand pounds of force were pressing down on his divine sense.

“Even puppets are suppressed.”

Li Chang’an had intended to use puppets to scout

ahead. But the puppets lost contact with him after only a short distance.

Danger lurked all around.

Without something to scout, it was easy to fall into a trap.

Fortunately,

after some experimentation ,

Li Chang’an discovered that his blood-dripping avatars were unaffected.

“As expected of Mo Qingkuang’s magic.”

He smiled and immediately flicked out a few drops of blood.

The blood landed, transforming into several avatars, which, under his control, explored the area where the gray mist churned.

A dozen or so breaths later,

one of Li Chang’an’s avatars was destroyed.

“There are indeed many dangers.”

He secretly marked the dangers here and began to map the space, using himself as the center. Another

dozen or so breaths passed.

Li Chang’an’s other avatars were also destroyed one after another.

Without hesitation, he flicked out more than ten drops of blood, multitasking to control more than ten avatars simultaneously.

And so,

he continued to explore, avoiding one dangerous place after another, slowly delving deeper into this space.

Half a day later, Li Chang’an suddenly sensed a familiar aura.

“Huh?”

He was somewhat surprised.

This aura did not belong to Mu Xiaoqing, but to the guest of the Purple Dawn Saintess.

Wu Shuo, a third-tier low-grade weapon refiner!

Li Chang’an hadn’t expected to encounter this person here.

Wu Shuo had once competed with him for the Evergreen Mountain spiritual vein and the earth fire, but they were not enemies.

At this moment,

Wu Shuo, like him, was cautiously exploring within the gray mist.

However, he didn’t have a blood avatar, so he could only laboriously maintain his divine sense, barely managing to explore the surrounding area with it.

“Fellow Daoist Wu, what brings you here?”

Li Chang’an stepped forward and asked.

His sudden appearance startled Wu Shuo.

“Fellow Daoist Li?”

Wu Shuo composed himself, looking at Li Chang’an with some surprise.

He explained, “I and two other fellow Daoists are here seeking opportunities. Fellow Daoist Li, why are you here too?”

“Like you, also seeking opportunities.”

After a brief exchange,

Li Chang’an understood why Wu Shuo had entered.

As a weapon refiner, Wu Shuo didn’t need to risk exploring secret realms; he could simply refine weapons peacefully to obtain abundant cultivation resources.

However, he couldn’t resist the invitation of his two fellow cultivators and decided to try his luck.

“On the path of cultivation, if one only seeks stability, it’s difficult to go far. Opportunities won’t always come knocking on your door,”

Wu Shuo sighed. His cultivation and skills had stagnated for too long, hence his desire to take a risk.   Li Chang’an was familiar

with the other two who accompanied him.   One was Zi Yun, the younger sister of the Holy Maiden Zi Xi.   He had seen her on the flying boat, but hadn’t had much contact with her.   The last one   was Ye Sang, a renowned third-tier superior spiritual healer in the Southern Region.   This man possessed superb healing skills, was kind-hearted, and had an excellent reputation in the Southern Region.   Years ago, on Yellow Crane Mountain, he had stopped Li Chang’an from killing Xiahou Hong and his son, advising Li Chang’an to be magnanimous, but was severely injured by Li Chang’an.   Wu Shuo said, “Not long ago, Fellow Daoist Ye Sang was invited by the Holy Maiden and, like me, became her guest elder.”   ”I see.”   Li Chang’an wasn’t surprised.   With Ye Sang’s medical skills, becoming a guest elder was more than enough.   At this point,   Wu Shuo couldn’t help but feel a little regretful: “Fellow Daoist Li, you shouldn’t have refused the Holy Maiden’s invitation back then. If you had become a guest elder, you would definitely have gone much further on your cultivation path.”   ”I don’t have such grand ambitions; becoming a Golden Core cultivator would be good enough.”   Li Chang’an smiled.   Soon, he followed Wu Shuo and met the other two.   Ye Sang wore a white robe, possessed an extraordinary air, and exuded a faint herbal fragrance, easily inspiring goodwill.   ”Fellow Daoist Li.”   He smiled, seemingly unconcerned about being severely injured by Li Chang’an.   Li Chang’an cupped his hands in greeting: “Fellow Daoist Ye, it’s been many years.”   Then, he looked at the other person.   Zi Yun.   The Holy Maiden Zi Xi’s younger sister.

She wore a purple dress, her eyes were like clear water, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her face was stunningly beautiful, with a hint of Zi Xi’s temperament.

“Fellow Daoist Li,”

she greeted casually, her tone indifferent.

She had no good feelings towards Li Chang’an, this rogue cultivator who had rejected her sister twice.

After some conversation,

Li Chang’an learned that Ye Sang had first discovered this place.

He sensed an opportunity within, but wasn’t confident he could seize it alone, so he invited Zi Yun and Wu Shuo.

Ye Sang smiled and invited, “Fellow Daoist Li, since you’re here too, why not explore the opportunity with us?”

“Very well,”

Li Chang’an didn’t refuse.

After that,

the two sides exchanged their compiled maps.

Although Li Chang’an had a Blood Avatar, he had only been here a short time and hadn’t explored many places, far less than Ye Sang and the other two.

He wasn’t at a disadvantage in this exchange.

Subsequently,

the four of them ventured deeper into the space shrouded in gray mist.

Along the way, Ye Sang seemed to offer a friendly reminder.

“Fellow Daoist Li, you must be careful. Much of this gray mist around us is poisonous. If you’re not careful, you could easily be poisoned without realizing it.”

“Alright, thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Ye,”

Li Chang’an replied with a smile.

He wasn’t too worried about it; the Myriad Poison Gu in his sleeve was extremely sensitive to poisonous mist.

The next few days went relatively smoothly.

They narrowly avoided one dangerous area after another, continuously venturing deeper into this space.

That evening,

a mid-stage third-tier demonic beast suddenly attacked.

The four of them were only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, and after some effort, they finally joined forces to kill it.

In this battle,

Li Chang’an only displayed the strength of an ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivator.

Ye Sang and Wu Shuo were slightly stronger than him.

Zi Yun’s strength was astonishing; she could fight beyond her level and inflicted the most damage on the demonic beast.

“Are any of you injured?”

Ye Sang asked with concern.

“I have plenty of spiritual herbs here. If you need any, please feel free to take them.”

“Fellow Daoist Ye, you can’t be too kind to people, otherwise outsiders will only think you’re easy to bully.”

Zi Yun smiled, her attitude towards Ye Sang quite good.

She reminded Ye Sang, “Within the Zixia Sect, there is a fourth-tier spiritual medicine inheritance, but many people are eyeing this inheritance. You will inevitably have to compete with them in the future, so you need to be ruthless.”

On the way there, she took special care of Ye Sang.

Clearly,

Ye Sang’s character impressed her greatly.

Unbeknownst to them, several more days passed.

Late one night, another third-tier demonic beast attacked.

This demonic beast was even stronger than the previous one, faintly approaching the late third-tier stage.

After a fierce battle, the group finally managed to kill it.

“Strange, could it be that there are no opportunities here, only endless dangers?”

“The three of you, if we go any further in, we’re afraid we’ll encounter even more dangers. Would you like to continue exploring?”

After discussing for a while,

Ye Sang and the other two decided to explore for a few more days.

If they still didn’t encounter any opportunity, they would return the way they came and leave this strange space.

Li Chang’an had no objections; even if everyone left, he would continue to venture deeper until he found Mu Xiaoqing and the inheritance.

Just then,

the hour of Zi arrived.

A golden light appeared before his eyes.

[The divination has been updated]

[Today’s divination: Neutral]

[Ye Sang, under the guise of healing, offered you a spiritual medicine, but this medicine contained a third-tier poison. You noticed the trick and refused the medicine.]

“Poison hidden in the medicine?”

Li Chang’an’s gaze sharpened as he glanced at Ye Sang not far away.

Could this person harbor resentment over what happened at Huanghe Mountain and intend to poison him here?

This space was filled with poisonous mist; dying from poisoning was common, and outsiders would likely not notice anything amiss.

Not long after,

the four continued forward.

They dispersed, each maintaining a distance, and slowly explored.

After a while,

Ye Sang came to Li Chang’an’s side.

His face was full of concern, as if he were kindly asking, “Fellow Daoist Li, you seem to have been injured in the previous battle.”

Just as the divination indicated.

Under the guise of healing, he offered a spiritual medicine.

Li Chang’an smiled, “Fellow Daoist Ye, my injuries aren’t serious. You should take this medicine yourself; I see you’re quite injured as well.”

“Fellow Daoist Li needn’t worry. As a spiritual healer, I understand my own condition very well.”

“That’s not true.”

Li Chang’an shook his head slightly, his tone very serious.

“Fellow Daoist Ye, have you ever heard that a healer cannot heal himself?”

“This…”

Ye Sang hesitated, vaguely sensing something amiss. A

flash of spiritual light appeared in Li Chang’an’s hand, and a pill appeared.

“Fellow Daoist Ye, I see your face is pale, as if you’ve been poisoned. This pill is a top-grade third-level antidote.”

With that, he directly released the medicinal power, intending to transfer it into Ye Sang’s body.

Ye Sang’s expression changed, and he immediately used his magic to block.

It was too late now.

How could he not understand that Li Chang’an had already noticed the anomaly!

“Fellow Daoist Li, do you not trust me?”

As he spoke, he subtly made his move, unleashing more than ten almost invisible poison needles.

At such close range, even an ordinary Golden Core cultivator would likely have been successfully struck.

Almost instantly,

the dozen or so poison needles pierced Li Chang’an’s body.

A glint of light flashed in Ye Sang’s eyes, thinking he had succeeded.

However,

the next instant,

Li Chang’an’s body exploded on the spot, turning into a drop of black blood.

This was not his true form, but merely a blood-soaked avatar.

Immediately afterward, a green light appeared behind Ye Sang.

Azure Wood Divine Light!

With a deafening “boom,” Ye Sang, unable to react in time, was instantly shattered.

He hadn’t cultivated body refinement, nor had he used any protective treasures; he was simply reduced to a pool of flesh and blood.

“Soul, come!”

Li Chang’an immediately summoned the soul, intending to collect it into the Soul-Bearing Banner.

To his surprise, Ye Sang’s soul did not appear.

He raised his hand, took Ye Sang’s storage bag, removed the restrictions, and opened it to examine it.

The treasures inside were few, not befitting Ye Sang’s status.

“No, this person is just an avatar.”

Li Chang’an frowned slightly, scanning his surroundings.

He vaguely sensed that Ye Sang’s true body was nearby, but due to the obstruction of the gray mist, he couldn’t pinpoint its exact location.

Just then,

an angry voice rang out.

“Li Chang’an, you killed Fellow Daoist Ye?”

Zi Yun appeared in the gray mist, her beautiful eyes filled with rage as she looked at the shattered blood and bones.

Wu Shuo also rushed over.

Upon seeing the mass of flesh, his expression changed slightly, and he became more wary of Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, why did you attack Fellow Daoist Ye?”

“This person intended to attack me, but I noticed. Naturally, I couldn’t just sit and wait to die.”

Li Chang’an calmly stated the truth.

Hearing this, Wu Shuo was skeptical, but the apprehension in his eyes did not lessen.

Zi Yun, however, was completely unconvinced.

“Li Chang’an, Fellow Daoist Ye has no grudge against you. Given his character, why would he attack you? I think you clearly coveted Fellow Daoist Ye’s third-tier spiritual plant inheritance. A rogue cultivator like you will stop at nothing for a few resources!”

“Fellow Daoist Zi, you are mistaken.”

Li Chang’an shook his head slightly, his expression not changing much.

He pointed to the pile of minced meat on the ground.

“Back on Yellow Crane Mountain, Ye Sang was severely injured by me for trying to stop me from killing Xiahou Hong. I think he must hold a grudge.”

“How could that be? Do you think Fellow Daoist Ye is as narrow-minded as you?”

Zi Yun was furious. She had originally been planning Ye Sang’s future cultivation path, worried that he would suffer losses within the Zixia Sect.

But now, everything was in vain.

A glint of spiritual light flashed in her hand, revealing several third-tier magic treasures; she clearly intended to attack Li Chang’an.

Seeing this, Wu Shuo hurriedly tried to dissuade her.

“Fellow Daoist Zi, this matter is still unresolved; you mustn’t act rashly.”

“Fellow Daoist Wu, this Li Chang’an killed someone from my Zixia Sect! According to the rules of the Zixia Sect, you should join me in killing him!”

Zi Yun stared intently at Li Chang’an, her eyes filled with anger and killing intent.

Wu Shuo didn’t act, but instead spoke again to dissuade her.

At the same time,

he secretly transmitted his voice to Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, is this truly the case?”

“Yes, Fellow Daoist Wu, do you believe me?”

“Of course I believe you, but Fellow Daoist Zi doesn’t, which makes things a bit troublesome.”

Wu Shuo’s apprehension towards Li Chang’an hadn’t lessened, but he felt Li Chang’an had no reason to act.

If Li Chang’an were truly the kind of rogue cultivator who would stop at nothing for cultivation resources, he wouldn’t have refused the Holy Maiden Zi Xi twice in a row.

Following the Holy Maiden Zi Xi would yield far more cultivation resources than being a rogue cultivator.

He tried to persuade Zi Yun, “Fellow Daoist Zi, I’ve known Fellow Daoist Li for many years. He’s definitely not that kind of person. There must be another reason for this. Could you please calm down?”

“Fellow Daoist Wu, you’ve known me even longer. Don’t you trust my judgment?”

Zi Yun’s tone was icy as she questioned him.

Wu Shuo immediately felt awkward.

He stood between the two, about to continue his persuasion.

Just then,

the surrounding gray mist suddenly churned, and a sharp, icy wind blew in from nowhere.

The three of them almost simultaneously realized that the wind was poisonous!

“Not good!”

Wu Shuo cast a spell to block the poisonous wind and swallowed several antidote pills.

“Fellow Daoist Zi, Fellow Daoist Li, could we temporarily set aside our dispute and leave this place?”

“Alright.”

Li Chang’an naturally had no objection.

Although Zi Yun was still angry, she understood the priorities and agreed to leave first.

However,

they soon discovered

that poisonous fog was rising from all directions, constantly assaulting them with the cold wind.

Under these circumstances, their magical power was being consumed extremely quickly, requiring them to consume pills almost every moment to replenish it.

Once they couldn’t hold on any longer, they would be invaded by the poisonous fog and remain here forever.

Wu Shuo and Zi Yun planned to return the way they came.

But, they hadn’t gone far when they sensed something was wrong.

“No, this isn’t the way we came!”

Both of them looked grim.

The map they had painstakingly drawn was completely useless.

Everything around them was constantly changing; the poisonous fog was becoming increasingly dense, and their energy consumption was accelerating.

Given the current situation, it was impossible for them to return to the exit.

“Let’s go deeper. The poisonous fog thins out a bit further; perhaps there’s a glimmer of hope.”

After some exploration, Wu Shuo decided to continue deeper.

Zi Yun had no other choice but to follow him.

Li Chang’an had already gone ahead of them, braving the increasingly dense poisonous fog to explore this space.

He vaguely sensed

Ye Sang’s presence occasionally flashing through the fog.

“This person seems to have ulterior motives, not just revenge against me. He was already exploring this place with Wu Shuo and Zi Yun before I arrived.”

“Could he have intended to attack these two?”

Li Chang’an pondered to himself.

At this moment,

Wu Shuo came to his side, his expression grave, and asked,

“Fellow Daoist Li, I’ve heard you’re an alchemist. Do you have any extra antidote pills?”

“Of course.” Li Chang’an

understood his meaning.

If there was no turning back, their treasures for restoring their mana would eventually run out.

At that point, they would have no choice but to rely on antidote pills and other antidotes to continue enduring the poisonous fog.

In the following days,

the three of them continued to venture deeper into this perilous space.

Behind them, the poisonous fog had thickened to a terrifying degree.

Wu Shuo and Zi Yun had long since given up on turning back and could only grit their teeth and continue forward.

But gradually,

the poisonous fog ahead grew even denser.

Wu Shuo returned to Li Chang’an’s side, his face showing difficulty, and pleaded, “Fellow Daoist Li, could you give me some pills first? I’m willing to exchange them for refining treasures.”

“Of course,”

Li Chang’an said amiably, tossing out a storage bag full of pills.

Wu Shuo opened it and his eyes widened in disbelief.

It was filled with third-tier pills!

There were pills to restore mana and various antidotes.

“Fellow Daoist Li, your alchemy has also reached the third tier?”

Wu Shuo was both surprised and delighted, his words tinged with disbelief.

He had thought Li Chang’an was only a peak second-tier alchemist, after all, Li Chang’an’s refining skills had reached the third tier.

Few cultivators could cultivate two skills to the third tier simultaneously.

Moreover, both alchemy and refining were among the most difficult of the hundred arts of cultivation.

Li Chang’an nodded and said, “I have a slight talent for alchemy, and I’ve progressed fairly smoothly, barely reaching the third rank.”

“That’s wonderful!”

Wu Shuo’s face lit up with joy. He had initially given up hope, but Li Chang’an’s third-rank alchemy skills rekindled his flame.

He returned to Zi Yun’s side and took out half of the pills from his storage bag.

“Fellow Daoist Zi, with these pills, we might be able to weather this crisis.”

“Take them away!”

Zi Yun gritted her teeth, refusing to accept the pills.

Although she was also shocked by Li Chang’an’s two third-rank techniques, her disgust and anger hadn’t diminished in the slightest.

“Even if I die here, I won’t take his pills!”
