The grudge between the Viridescent Nether Cult and the Jade Pure Sect had lasted for decades. This was Han Yan's perspective, but in reality, it was even longer.
The two of them weren't the only sects in the cultivation world. There were other sects, and their enemies weren't just each other.
Because of this, the Viridescent Nether Cult and the Jade Pure Sect didn't dare to go all out. They were afraid that both sides would suffer losses and give the other sects a chance to benefit.
In a dark hall, there were eight figures meditating.
Zhang Kunmo was among them.
The leader was a blood-robed man. His hair was black and white, and his expression was indifferent. He held a horsetail whisk in his hand.
He was the sect master of the Viridescent Nether Cult, Duan Tongtian!
"You still haven't caught Li Qingzi after so long?" Duan Tongtian asked in a low voice.
The seven elders were silent.
They had chased Li Qingzi for nearly twenty years, but Li Qingzi was lucky enough to escape every time.
Li Qingzi deliberately didn't return to the Jade Pure Sect and kept most of the Viridescent Nether Cult's attention.
Zhang Kunmo said, "Don't bother about him. Let's just attack the Jade Pure Sect. My disciple died in the Jade Pure Sect. The Cult has invested so much effort into him. How can you let it go?"
He gritted his teeth at the thought of Han Yan.
Back then, he had said those harsh words, but after so many years, he still hadn't settled the score with Han Yan.
He could even imagine Han Yan's face when he mocked him for bragging.
"I think so too. If we attack the Jade Pure Sect directly, our overall strength will have already surpassed them!"
"During the Demonic Dao Conference, the other sects have already expressed their stance. Unless we annex the nearby Jade Pure Sect, they won't submit to us."
"That's right. The Lord of the Demonic Dao can't even defeat the nearby righteous sects. How can he convince the masses?"
"I'm willing to personally lead my disciples to attack the Jade Pure Sect!"
"Other than Li Qingzi, there's another old monster in the Jade Pure Sect."
The elders began to discuss.
Duan Tongtian's eyes flickered, but he didn't interrupt.
After a long while, all the elders stopped and turned to look at him, waiting for him to make a decision.
Duan Tongtian said, "I'm preparing to reach the Soul Formation stage. If I succeed, it won't be too late to attack the Jade Pure Sect. At that time, it will be a sure thing."
Soul Formation!
The elders looked at him in shock.
Zhang Kunmo took a deep breath and asked, "Cult Master, are you confident?"
Duan Tongtian said calmly, "I've been preparing for this for decades. I'm ninety percent confident that another thirty years won't be too late!"
Thirty years!
For mortals, it might be half a lifetime.
But to them, it wasn't a long time.
…
It had been ten years since Xing Hongxuan left.
Han Yan had cultivated his wind spiritual root to the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm and his fire spiritual root to the third level.
Ever since his Thunder Spiritual Root had reached the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, cultivating other Spiritual Roots was much easier.
Han Yan could already see the Nascent Soul waving at him.
He was getting stronger every day. This feeling was incomparably wonderful, so he did not feel that cultivating in seclusion was boring.
Only by reaching the Nascent Soul Realm as soon as possible could he be considered to have truly left behind the weak!
Han Yan was now eighty-eight years old. An eighty-eight-year-old ninth level Golden Core Realm cultivator was definitely second to none in the Cultivation World.
However, he still felt that it was not enough.
Even if he reached the Nascent Soul Realm, it was still not enough.
He wanted to cultivate until he reached the end of his cultivation. He wanted to be absolutely invincible!
On this day.
Chang Yue 'er came to visit.
Han Yan closed the Dharma Formation and welcomed her into the residence.
"Junior Brother, I'm here to see you. I also brought you some natural treasures to plant by the pool. It can make the Spirit Qi in your cave abode denser. In the future, it might become the cave abode with the best Spirit Qi in the Jade Pure Sect." Chang Yue 'er smiled.
She walked to the pool and began to scatter the seeds.
Han Yan smiled. "Thank you, Senior Sister."
"Don't thank me. It's all a reward from Master. I'm just helping out with some manual labor." Chang Yue 'er smiled.
Han Yan couldn't help but think of Fairy Xi Xuan.
He was silently grateful in his heart.
Chang Yue 'er continued, "Ever since you entered seclusion, several new disciples have joined Jade Serene Peak. Junior Brother Tie, who was ranked behind you, died of old age two years ago."
Elder Tie was dead?
Han Yan was stunned.
He hurriedly opened his interpersonal relationships and realized that he could no longer find Elder Tie's profile picture.
He was gone.
"Speaking of this Junior Brother Tie, his aptitude is too poor. He should have died in the outer sect. To be able to come to the inner sect, he has no regrets in this life. However, before he died, he wanted to see you. This is what his alchemy apprentice said."
"Why does he want to see me?"
Han Yan asked with a complicated expression.
In the past, he hated Elder Tie.
But now that he thought about it, Elder Tie had never hurt him. It could even be said that he had raised him.
Elder Tie's death made Han Yan's disgust for him disappear. He even felt a little melancholic.
This was the path of cultivation.
There would always be people dying on the way.
I can't die halfway!
Han Yan's pursuit of longevity became even more determined.
Chang Yue 'er shook her head. "How would I know? Did you know each other before? "
Only a few people knew that Han Yan and Elder Tie knew each other, not including Chang Yue 'er.
"It doesn't matter if we know each other or not. Senior Sister, cultivate well. If you die too, I will be sad."
Han Yan said seriously. His words were sincere.
After coming to this world, he didn't know many people, and the number of people he had a good relationship with could be counted on one hand.
Chang Yue 'er turned to look at him and smiled. "Hmph, stupid Junior Brother, I thought you didn't have me in your heart at all."
Han Yan smiled and shook his head.
The two of them began to chat.
Most of the time, it was Chang Yue 'er who was talking about what happened in the sect.
Zhou Fan had completely risen and become a famous person in the inner sect. He challenged the First Disciple of Sword Peak with his Foundation Establishment cultivation and won over her, shocking the entire sect. But on the second day of their marriage, he divorced that woman, causing a lot of criticism in the inner sect.
Now, Zhou Fan and Mo Fuchou had become the face of Heaven's Thunder Peak. They were both personal disciples, and Mo Fuchou was even a core disciple.
Xing Hongxuan had always been cultivating on the main peak, so she wasn't that famous.
"Alright, Senior Sister should go back to cultivate and try to accompany Junior Brother on his path of cultivation." Chang Yue 'er smiled mischievously, then stood up and left.
Han Yan sighed.
Although Chang Yue 'er was joking, her words were heartbreaking in Han Yan's ears.
Han Yan was someone who wanted to live forever. Chang Yue 'er's talent was far inferior to his, so she definitely wouldn't live as long as him!
But Han Yan wasn't a pretentious person, so he quickly adjusted his mentality.
If he had the ability in the future, he could also pull in people close to him.
For example, Fairy Xi Xuan, Chang Yue 'er, Xing Hongxuan.
Should Mo Zhu be counted as one?
Han Yan thought about it silently.
Suddenly, he raised his right hand and used his finger as a sword, writing two words in the air towards the cave wall.
Elder Tie.
He stood up and bowed towards Elder Tie's name.
This bow was a belated farewell.
He hoped that Elder Tie could find a good family in his next life.
After that, Han Yan continued to meditate and cultivate.
…
Another ten years passed.
Han Yan's fire spirit root had reached the ninth level of the Golden Core realm, and his water spirit root had reached the seventh level of the Golden Core realm. He only had the earth spirit root and wood spirit root left to cultivate.
This was already a godly speed, but he was somewhat dissatisfied.
He began to rummage through his Small Universe Belt to check the pills left behind by Chen Santian.
Chen Santian was also a Golden Core realm cultivator, so perhaps he had pills specially for Golden Core realm cultivators.
Unfortunately, he didn't.
That bastard's pills were mostly poisons, aphrodisiacs, and all sorts of despicable drugs.
"As expected of a damned Demon Sect member!"
