Eternal Life as False Emperor

"You talk too much nonsense." The senior brother flicked the guy’s head irritably: "Take their heads and send them over quickly, the elders specially requested this."

A flash of white light, and the heads of two corpses disappeared without a trace.

With a wave of the sleeve, white powder enveloped the two corpses. Instantly, the bodies turned into white smoke and vanished without a trace, even the bloodstains corroded away.

Cleanly done, as if no murder had ever happened.

Soon, in front of the Star Sea sect’s mountain gate, two heads were hung up.

Immediately someone recognized the pair.

"Aren’t those the Silver Mountain’s Twin Demons? They were both skilled Golden Core stage cultivators, how could they have died here?"

"Star Sea is too ruthless, aren’t they? These were Golden Core cultivators, kill them just like that?"

"What else? I heard before that Silver Mountain’s Twin Demons wanted to steal secret manuals from Star Sea. Initially thought they were just saying, but now it seems they actually acted."

"Daring to sneak into Star Sea to steal secret manuals, if not killed, would it be better to keep them? Are you worried for them, could you be their accomplice?"

"Don’t falsely accuse me, I just feel it’s a pity they’ve reached Golden Core stage, nothing more."

"Pity my ass, these Silver Mountain’s Twin Demons committed numerous evil deeds, stealing cultivation techniques all over, who knows how many they’ve harmed. With their death, the Cultivation Realm is rid of two menaces."

"Just two Golden Core stage cultivators, dare call them menaces? If I knew about them before, I’d have wiped them out long ago."

"You are such a hero, I admire, I admire. I even know a few more villains like Silver Mountain’s Twin Demons, how about you..."

"Ahem... I just remembered, my pill furnace still has elixirs, if I don’t return soon, there might be a problem with this batch. Farewell!" The person pinched a spell and used an escape technique, disappearing in a blink.

"Humph! Just a loudmouth trash."

The two heads at the mountain gate indeed scared some people away.

Unfortunately, the new cultivation technique from Star Sea is too tempting, many thrill-seekers still find various ways to sneak into Star Sea.

The strength of these people isn’t substantial, but there’s just too many of them.

To prevent these people from dying, Star Sea even posted a notice directly at the mountain gate.

Informing those cultivators, the cultivation technique Zheng Yi released was merely for Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining.

Although profound, it’s not worth risking your lives.

With a great enemy before, Star Sea, as a Human Race Cultivator Sect, hopes not to kill indiscriminately and wishes these cultivators to think twice before acting.

Despite Star Sea’s sincere words, the notice had an effect but far less than expected.

Some rational people left, yet more disbelievers lingered.

"Star Sea guys are treating us like fools? If it’s merely a Foundation Establishment technique, why are so many recently undergoing tribulation at Star Sea?"

"Indeed, every day on the tribulation platform at Star Sea’s back mountain, there are disciples undergoing tribulation."

"Star Sea being a prominent sect in Canglan Realm is true, but they never had so many tribulating disciples before, isn’t it thanks to the newly acquired secret manuals?"

"These guys think we’re kids, believing them with just nonsense?"

"I believe, Star Sea’s claim is nothing but a cover-up, contrary to proving the secret manual is a valuable treasure."

Driven by profit, the number of cultivators attempting various ways to infiltrate Star Sea only increases.

Even Zheng Yi, studying Golden Core stage cultivators’ techniques, was alerted by the commotion these people caused.

"Elder Fengg, why is it so lively lately?"

Fengg Xia sighed helplessly: "This matter is somewhat related to you, Elder Zheng..."

Fengg Xia briefly told Zheng Yi about the recent occurrences.

"It actually caused such a stir?" Zheng Yi was slightly shocked.

Though he told others the techniques were created by a predecessor named Huang Shang from his original world.

In reality, after viewing Star Sea’s techniques and comprehending them, Zheng Yi himself developed these techniques.

He believed his techniques should be superior to those currently in Star Sea.

Yet, he didn’t take it to heart too much, after all, it was just foundational techniques.

Like a university professor writing elementary math textbooks, no matter how well written, it’s ultimately for elementary students.

Never anticipated such a big ripple in Canglan Realm.

After pondering, Zheng Yi reminded Fengg Xia: "Try to restrain Star Sea disciples from going out these days."

"Moreover, it’s best to increase some mobile forces, so they can swiftly rescue in case of anything."

Fengg Xia’s face sank: "Elder Zheng, your meaning is..."

"In any case, preventing issues is always better than reacting after they happen, right? I also hope it’s just my unnecessary worry."

Words were polite, but based on Zheng Yi’s own experience, chances are such things will occur.

Simply put, judging by own thinking.

Zheng Yi isn’t the kind of cartoon protagonist who merely shouts justice.

If there’s something concerning him or Great Yu’s interests.

Kidnapping one or two is no big deal.

Those cultivators regarding his created techniques as exceptional treasures.

To obtain these, they will surely go to any lengths.

Elders at Star Sea indeed didn’t take Zheng Yi’s words lightly.

Each of these cultivators enjoys a long lifespan. Whether their minds are sharp or not, they’ve experienced nearly everything.

Even if they didn’t consider it before, Zheng Yi’s hint immediately seemed reasonable.

And subsequent events made them immeasurably grateful for not ignoring Zheng Yi.

Because that very afternoon, two female disciples returning to Star Sea suddenly vanished without a trace.

Realizing something was amiss, Lin Junrong led a team for the search.

Although they hurried to the location of the missing Star Sea disciples.

Ultimately, too much time was wasted on the road, leaving no clues.

Just as they were at a loss, they received help from four young cultivators.

Only then, at the crucial moment, did they locate the missing disciples.

According to Zheng Yi’s later understanding, they found the disciples when those people furiously prepared to use the Soul-Searching technique, forcefully seeking clues of the cultivation technique from Star Sea disciples’ minds.

Any delay, and these two disciples would have their divine souls shattered, even if rescued, they would become idiots.

Lin Junrong, going to rescue, was furious at seeing Star Sea disciples tormented beyond recognition.

Those culprits didn’t even have time to beg for mercy and were instantly torn to pieces by Lin Junrong, leaving no trace.

To express gratitude, Lin Junrong invited the four to Star Sea as guests.

When Zheng Yi was brought to the discussion hall by Fengg Xia, he met the four face-to-face.

The leading person walked with his chin raised high, a look of disdainful arrogance.

However, this person had reasons for pride, barely over twenty years old, he already reached Crystal Peak, an extraordinary talent considering his age.

Though it’s not difficult for cultivators to maintain youthful looks.

But whether genuinely young is evident at a glance.

The youthful vigor unique to young individuals is something those veteran monsters of hundreds of years cannot imitate.

The other three also had distinctive features, one with a folding fan dressed in scholar attire immediately caught Zheng Yi’s attention.
