Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 335

Chapter 335 The Transformation of the Spirit Talisman, The Second Stone Eye (Seeking Subscriptions)

Over the years,

Li Chang’an had practically raised Song Yu’er as half a descendant.

Song Yu’er’s cultivation had progressed rapidly, already at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and she would break through to Foundation Establishment in a few more years.

“Senior, my cultivation hasn’t gone wrong,

has it?” “No, it hasn’t.”

Li Chang’an smiled, his tone gentle.

Song Yu’er gently leaned closer, nestled beside him, blinking her big eyes, her small face full of emotion.

“Senior, you’re so good to me, you wouldn’t happen to be my long-lost father, would you?”

“…”

Li Chang’an was speechless for a moment.

After a while,

he separated hundreds of strands of divine sense, entering Song Yu’er’s sea of consciousness, slowly approaching the silver-white symbol.

At the same time, Song Yu’er skillfully transmitted her coordinated thoughts to the depths of her sea of consciousness.

Soon,

Li Chang’an’s divine sense transformed into a cage of divine sense.

He had done this many times before.

But each time it wasn’t ideal.

The silver-white symbol would always break through his cage of divine sense, not giving him a chance to contact it for longer.

He had assumed this time would be no exception.

However,

when his divine sense touched the symbol

, although it trembled with a “hum,” it didn’t immediately break through the cage of his divine sense, only daring to break free a moment later.

In that instant,

Li Chang’an gained several times more insights into the power of the void than before!

“This method really works!”

He couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy.

This was the first time such a situation had occurred, clearly related to Song Yu’er’s trust in him.

Song Yu’er’s unreserved trust in him, accumulated over the years, had finally caused the symbol to change.

“With the first time, there can be a second, and even countless times!”

Li Chang’an took a deep breath, suppressing his joy, and immediately began to digest the insights he had gained.

After a long time,

he slowly opened his eyes and found that the world before him seemed slightly different.

But he couldn’t quite put his finger on what was different; he just felt something was strange.

Then, he looked at the Rift Symbol again.

After this comprehension, he could understand about half of the spiritual patterns on the symbol.

“Not bad, the progress this time is astonishing. If I do it a few more times, I might be able to replicate a low-level version of the Rift Symbol.”

Li Chang’an’s thoughts stirred, and he once again extended his divine sense, attempting to touch the symbol.

But the symbol quickly dodged.

“I can’t do it too frequently; I have to wait a little longer.”

Li Chang’an withdrew his divine sense and stopped trying.

After that,

he shared some cultivation insights with Song Yu’er.

“Yu’er, if you have any questions on your cultivation path, you can come and ask me.”

In the years that followed,

Li Chang’an increased his investment in Song Yu’er.

He replaced all the treasures on Song Yu’er’s person with near-fourth-tier treasures.

Furthermore, he had several third-tier demon king puppets hide inside Song Yu’er’s personal treasures.

If they encountered a powerful enemy,

he could make these demon kings appear instantly.

…

Time flew by, and several years passed in the blink of an eye.

During these years ,

Li Chang’an touched the silver-white symbol twice more.

Both times, although the symbol showed resistance, it paused for a moment each time, allowing him to gain much insight.

On this day…

On Changqing Mountain, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth stirred.

Soon, a vortex of spiritual energy, about a hundred feet in diameter, appeared beneath the sky.

“A Foundation Establishment Celestial Phenomenon.”

Li Chang’an, dressed in white robes, stood with his hands behind his back in the courtyard, gazing up at the celestial phenomenon.

The cause of this phenomenon was none other than Song Yu’er!   Li Chang’an wasn’t too worried

about her breakthrough .   The cultivation technique Song Yu’er practiced was a True Heaven-grade technique he had carefully selected.   Her accumulated magical power was extremely profound, far surpassing that of ordinary Qi Refining Peak cultivators.   Furthermore,   Li Chang’an had prepared high-quality Foundation Establishment Pills and a sufficient number of Foundation Establishment spiritual items for her.   The success rate of these Foundation Establishment spiritual items, when combined, even exceeded one hundred percent!   This was all to ensure absolute success.   ”There shouldn’t be any problems.”   Li Chang’an activated the Changqing Mountain’s formation to its maximum and used multiple clones to patrol outside.   At this moment,   Long Niu arrived carrying a guqin.   He asked in a low voice, his face full of curiosity, “Li Chang’an, could this little girl really be your daughter?”   Li Chang’an glanced at him.   ”Why do you ask?”   ”If she’s not your daughter, why are you so good to her? I’ve never seen you treat Luo Yunshu and Wang Lingjing this well; you’ve always had a hands-off approach.”   Long Niu chuckled, offering his analysis.   ”In my opinion, even if this little girl isn’t your daughter, she’s still your descendant. Judging by your handsome appearance, you must have had some romantic entanglements in the mortal realm back then.”   ”…”   Li Chang’an was too lazy to argue with him.   Several hours later.   The strange phenomena of heaven and earth dissipated smoothly, without any surprises.   After a while, the cave gate opened, and the aura of Foundation Establishment spread out.   Song Yu’er ran out happily, her face beaming.   ”Senior, I’ve established my foundation!”   ”Hmm.”   Li Chang’an nodded slightly.

“Foundation Establishment is merely the first step in cultivation. Do not be arrogant or complacent; the road ahead is long. You are the golden core seed of Changqing Mountain; you cannot stagnate at the Foundation Establishment stage.”

“Senior, rest assured, I will not be arrogant,”

Song Yu’er nodded repeatedly, her face full of obedience.

Long Niu stood to the side.

He stared with his copper bell-like eyes, his pupils darting back and forth, constantly scanning Li Chang’an and Song Yu’er’s faces, seemingly trying to find some similarities.

Just then, congratulations suddenly rang out from Changqing Immortal City at the foot of the mountain.

Changqing Immortal City was now far more prosperous than Huanghe Immortal City.

Various forces had already settled there.

“Congratulations on Fellow Daoist Song’s successful Foundation Establishment!”

Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Zhou, Mo, and Mu families offered their congratulations one after another, their voices resounding through the sky.

Song Yu’er was overjoyed; her eyes curved into crescent moons, and her lips never left her lips.

That evening,

after seeing off the guests from various forces, she happily ran to Li Chang’an’s cave.

“Senior, I feel my current state is quite peculiar. Would you like to try again?”

“Hmm, let’s try.”

Li Chang’an nodded slightly.

It hadn’t been a year since he last encountered the silver-white symbol; theoretically, the interval wasn’t long enough.

But Song Yu’er’s current state was special; she had just broken through, and her mental state had undergone a significant change. The symbol might also have changed.

Li Chang’an immediately used his Divine Mind Transformation Technique, controlling hundreds of strands of divine sense to enter Song Yu’er’s sea of consciousness.

Song Yu’er blinked and transmitted her thoughts to the depths of her sea of consciousness.

“Whoever you are in the depths of my sea of consciousness, you must cooperate with Senior and not disappoint you.”

She did her best to continuously transmit her thoughts.

A moment later,

Li Chang’an’s divine sense approached the silver-white symbol.

Based on past experience, this symbol would immediately dodge, giving him no chance.

But this time,

the symbol remained in place.

Li Chang’an was slightly pleased and controlled his divine sense to continue approaching, successfully forming a cage of divine sense.

Then,

he caused the cage to slowly shrink.

The symbol trembled slightly upon contact, but didn’t immediately rush out.

This time ,

it lingered for a longer period.

After several times more insights surfaced in Li Chang’an’s mind, the symbol finally transformed into a silver light, breaking through his spiritual prison.

“The contact time is longer now,”

Li Chang’an smiled. If this

continues

, sooner or later, the symbol will no longer escape, allowing him to continue touching it.

Song Yu’er raised her small face and asked him, “Senior, how did it go?”

“Not bad!”

Li Chang’an was quite satisfied with the result.

He closed his eyes slightly, rapidly digesting the insights he had gained.

When he opened his eyes again, the world before him seemed to have gained some strangeness.

“The void…”

Li Chang’an pondered.

If he could completely master all the power of that symbol, he could probably tear through the void with a wave of his hand, just like the Great Jin Emperor.

He was thinking…

Song Yu’er suddenly exclaimed with delight, “Senior, my speed of absorbing spiritual energy has increased again!”

“Hmm?”

Li Chang’an immediately channeled a stream of spiritual energy into Song Yu’er’s meridians to sense her absorption speed.

After a while, he made a judgment.

Song Yu’er’s current

cultivation speed was comparable to that of a prodigy with a mid-level earth spiritual root.

Before this,

she had only vaguely approached the earth spiritual root.

It seemed that the change in that symbol had caused her spiritual body to undergo a second awakening.

Li Chang’an asked gently, “Yu’er, have you sensed any special power?”

“No.”

“Have you awakened any special physique?”

“No…”

Song Yu’er tried to sense it, but ultimately shook her head.

Apart from the increased cultivation speed, there were no other changes, and no manifestation of void power.

Li Chang’an examined her entire body but found nothing unusual.

He could only let her go back to continue her cultivation.

“When she reaches the Golden Core stage, perhaps more changes will occur.”

For Li Chang’an now, cultivating an earth spiritual root to the Golden Core stage was not difficult.

He had plenty of Golden Core-forming treasures at his disposal.

After Song Yu’er left,

Li Chang’an sealed off his cave and went deep inside to prepare the medicinal liquid needed for the seventh level of body refinement.

Over the past few years, he had gathered all the necessary treasures for this liquid.

About fifteen minutes later,

the liquid was ready, and the entire cave was filled with a foul, bloody stench.

Li Chang’an lay quietly in the bloody medicinal liquid, silently experiencing the changes in his physique.

“My body refinement realm is still stuck at the sixth level, but the strength of my physique has broken through the third-tier limit and is still slowly increasing.”

Li Chang’an slowly clenched his fist, feeling his entire body filled with terrifying power.

A single punch from him could overwhelm even a peak Golden Core cultivator!

“It’s a pity I don’t have a fourth-tier body refinement technique,”

Li Chang’an sighed inwardly.

Once he reached the ninth level, the path of body refinement would end.

Several hours later, dawn broke.

Li Chang’an finished his medicinal bath.

He took out some alchemy treasures, intending to refine pills to aid his cultivation.

Just then,

Xu Fugui suddenly ran up the mountain, excitedly shouting,

“Big brother, your 170th birthday is coming soon! Should we prepare a birthday banquet?”

“170?”

Li Chang’an calculated with his fingers; his birthday was indeed approaching again.

Cultivation knows no age; he always forgot about it, relying on Xu Fugui to remind him every year.

“170 isn’t a big birthday celebration; there’s no need to hold one,”

Li Chang’an shook his head slightly.

He only held a banquet once when he was 150 years old. Holding another one so soon, he feared he wouldn’t receive many gifts.

“Just prepare two simple tables of spiritual food; there shouldn’t be many people.”

“Alright.”

Xu Fugui immediately went down the mountain to prepare.

…

A few days later.

Li Chang’an officially turned 170.

He didn’t publicize it, and only a few people attended the banquet, including Zheng Qingqing, Mo Qingxue, Ye Hao, and Zi Yun.

Today, Zheng Qingqing wore a red dress, her jade-like face as beautiful as a flower, radiant and charming.

Her eyes flickered, glancing at Mo Qingxue.

“Fellow Daoist Mo.”

“Fellow Daoist Zheng, it’s been many years.”

Mo Qingxue greeted her calmly, her expression unchanged.

Their eyes met for a moment, then looked away, saying nothing more.

Beside them.

Long Niu was full of curiosity.

He stared wide-eyed, his gaze sweeping over the two of them, then at Li Chang’an, seemingly understanding something.

“Whose daughter is that little girl, Song Yu’er?”

Long Niu couldn’t contain himself, secretly transmitting his voice to ask Li Chang’an.

Li Chang’an was speechless for a moment.

“As a spirit beast of heaven and earth, you shouldn’t be interested in these trivial matters.”

“Li Chang’an, you’re wrong. Even heaven has feelings; why can’t I be interested in these things?”

Li Chang’an was too lazy to argue further, letting him think it over.

Soon,

the banquet began, the aroma of wine filling the air.

During the banquet, Ye Hao said, “Brother, so many years have passed, and you really haven’t changed at all. If our old friends saw you, they’d probably think they’d seen a ghost.”

“Haha, Ye Hao is right, brother is still so young.”

Chu Daniu, holding a wine jar, laughed loudly.

Xu Fugui, however, was filled with emotion.

“Those old friends from back then, those who haven’t been heard from yet, are probably all gone.”

Mentioning the past, everyone present was quite moved.

Just then,

at the foot of Changqing Mountain, someone suddenly requested an audience.

The visitor was a young cultivator with a very low cultivation level, only at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

An ordinary Qi Refining cultivator wouldn’t even be qualified to see Li Chang’an.

But Li Chang’an found him somewhat familiar.

“He seems to be a descendant of an old friend.”

He raised his hand and beckoned.

Before the young cultivator at the foot of the mountain could react, he was shocked to find himself on the mountaintop.

Before him stood powerful figures whose auras made him tremble.

“Junior Liu Zhiyuan greets Ancestor Changqing and all the seniors!”

He knelt down with a thud, bowing tremblingly to everyone.

At this moment,

Ye Hao, Chu Daniu, and the others also found the young man somewhat familiar.

Xu Fugui asked, “Liu Zhiyuan, what is Liu Sanzhu to you?”

“Reporting to seniors, Liu Sanzhu is my Liu family ancestor, and also my ancestor.”

“He really is a descendant of Third Brother…”

The group exchanged glances, all somewhat surprised.

Liu Sanzhu was also a member of their immortal-seeking team back then.

Due to his considerable strength and forthright personality, he was always regarded as Third Brother by everyone, and his status in the team was second only to Li Chang’an and Xu Yang.

Back then, after parting ways at the Immortal Gate,

no one had heard any news of him again.

And now,

his descendant had actually come looking for him.

Li Chang’an asked him, “Zhiyuan, is the Liu family in trouble?”

“Yes, yes… Senior, please save my Liu family!”

Facing Li Chang’an, a Golden Core cultivator, Liu Zhiyuan was extremely nervous, his voice trembling.

As he spoke, he took out a longsword from his storage bag and presented it to Li Chang’an.

“Senior, this is the sword used by our ancestor.”

“Hmm, it is indeed my third brother’s sword.”

Li Chang’an picked up the longsword, a look of nostalgia on his face.

This sword was one of the ten divine weapons of that small mortal kingdom.

He had once wanted to possess this sword.

Of course,

from today’s perspective, this sword wasn’t even considered a first-tier magic weapon.

“Senior, before our ancestor died, he said that the descendants of the Liu family should strive unceasingly and not trouble his friends from back then.”

Liu Zhiyuan spoke with trepidation, uttering Liu Sanzhu’s last words.

“But the Liu family is in imminent danger. If we don’t seek help soon, we fear extinction is not far off. This junior has no choice but to make this decision, which goes against our ancestor’s wishes.”

“What happened?”

Li Chang’an, with a gentle expression, used his magic to lift Liu Zhiyuan up, allowing him to speak slowly.

Liu Zhiyuan immediately explained the whole story.

The Liu family’s current territory is on the edge of the Southern Region, and their strongest member is at the ninth level of Qi Refining. They are affiliated with the Hu family, a Foundation Establishment family in that region.

Not long ago,

a treasure was unearthed from a first-tier spirit mine owned by the Liu family.

The treasure’s grade was extremely high; even the current Liu family head, at the ninth level of Qi Refining, couldn’t refine it. Therefore, he planned to trade it for Foundation Establishment resources.

However , the Hu

family, also a Foundation Establishment family, learned of this.

The Hu family has a rule that all Qi Refining families affiliated with them must hand over any treasures of unknown grade that they obtain.

The Liu family violated this rule by attempting to trade the treasure privately, enraging the Hu family.

The Hu family issued a decree

demanding an explanation from the Liu family within a month.

Otherwise,

they would exterminate the entire Liu family as a warning to others!

“Senior, the Hu family is most likely using my Liu family as a scapegoat. I have no other choice but to beg you to save my Liu family!”

With that, Liu Zhiyuan presented an exquisite jade box.

Inside the jade box

was the treasure the Liu family had discovered.

Li Chang’an initially paid little attention, but he quickly sensed a familiar aura.

His heart stirred, and he opened the jade box.

Before him appeared a gray stone eyeball.

“A stone eye!”

Li Chang’an exclaimed in surprise.

He never expected to see a second stone eye.

This stone eye felt exactly the same as the one he had obtained before; it was also a mid-grade third-tier treasure. Li Chang’an’s

mind raced, and he took out the first stone eye.

He immediately noticed

that the two stone eyes were attracting each other, seemingly about to merge.

“If they truly merge, they might become an even more powerful treasure, but there’s also the possibility of unforeseen problems.” Li

Chang’an temporarily held back the two stone eyes, not allowing them to merge.

He planned to consult the divination.

If the divination indicated no harm, he would then allow the two stone eyes to merge.

He then put away the two stone eyes and said to the others,

“My friend’s family is in trouble, and I wish to go and help them. Would you all like to come with me?”

“Of course!”

Ye Hao, Xu Fugui, and the others had no objections; they all wanted to pay their respects to Liu Sanzhu.

Although Mo Qingxue, Zi Yun, and the others didn’t know Liu Sanzhu, since they were already there, there was no need to rush to leave, so they also planned to go with Li Chang’an.

Soon,

Li Chang’an piloted a third-tier flying boat to the Liu family’s territory.

When they arrived at the Liu family’s territory, the Liu family was being pressured by cultivators from the Foundation Establishment Hu family.

An arrogant Hu family cultivator stood inside the Liu family’s main hall and loudly proclaimed, “The Liu family is at fault in this matter, violating the rules of my Hu family. If you cannot show sufficient sincerity, then await the extermination of your clan!”

The atmosphere in the entire Liu family’s main hall was extremely oppressive.

The expressions of the many Liu family members varied; some were angry, while others were filled with fear.

The Hu family cultivator snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Just then…

Li Chang’an and Ye Hao left the flying boat and landed in front of the Hu family cultivator.

“What’s your name?”

Li Chang’an asked calmly, his body radiating the pressure of a Golden Core cultivator.

Sensing this pressure,

the Hu family cultivator’s face turned deathly pale, and he immediately knelt on the ground.

Whether it was Li Chang’an or Ye Hao and the others behind him, they all gave him a feeling far surpassing the Hu family’s Foundation Establishment ancestor; they were definitely cultivators of a higher realm.

Golden Core!

The thought sent a chill down his spine, and he almost fainted on the spot.

“Senior, this junior…this junior is called Hu Chang,”

he stammered, his teeth chattering.

Li Chang’an said indifferently, “Summon your Hu family ancestor to see me.”

With that, he waved his hand casually.

Hu Chang felt his body lighten instantly, flying out of the Liu family’s territory and landing in front of the Hu family’s territory.

His face filled with horror, he hurriedly ran into the depths of the Hu family’s territory to pay his respects to the Hu family’s Foundation Establishment ancestor.

“Ancestor, something terrible has happened! The Liu family has requested reinforcements!”

“Oh?”

Hu Ke, the patriarch of the Hu family, frowned, a hint of unease creeping in.

He asked in a deep voice, “The Liu family has invited Foundation Establishment experts?”

“No…no, not a single Foundation Establishment expert!”

Hearing this,

Hu Ke immediately relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

“Not a single Foundation Establishment expert? Then why are you panicking?”
