Eternal Life by Daily Divination

"I wouldn’t call it a perilous situation. I was just trapped and couldn’t get out."

Zi Yun recounted her experience.

She had been rather unlucky, sent into this Quasi-Tier Four Array by that strange power.

Although this Array had long since decayed and fallen into ruin, she knew nothing about the Array Dao and had no idea how to escape. She had been trapped here until now.

She said to Li Chang’an, "Daoist Li, please find my sister and have her use a Tier Four Talisman to break this Array..."

Before she could finish her sentence.

The entire Array suddenly collapsed.

Li Chang’an, holding the Array Core, raised his hand and collected the numerous Array Treasures.

Seeing this, Zi Xi was dumbfounded, her face filled with disbelief.

"Daoist Li, you... you’re actually a Quasi-Tier Four Array Master?"

"Mhm."

Li Chang’an smiled without further explanation, his eyes sweeping over the area within the Array.

Within this Array was a large quantity of Alchemy Treasures.

While Zi Yun was trapped, she hadn’t dared to move around carelessly, afraid of triggering a change in the Array.

Now, these treasures naturally all belonged to Li Chang’an.

Only after he had collected all the treasures did Zi Yun manage to calm down.

"Daoist Li, don’t tell me you’re hiding other Cultivation Techniques?"

"Nope, that’s all of them."

"Really?"

"Mhm. I, Li Chang’an, never lie."

Li Chang’an said with a smile, full of conviction.

A trace of suspicion flickered in Zi Yun’s eyes. She circled him, studying him as if trying to see right through him.

A moment later, the three of them set off, continuing deeper into the ruins.

Along the way, they found more than ten other Purple Mist Sect cultivators in succession.

「About three days later.」

Their group met up with Mu Hongyu, Mu Chen, and the other cultivators from the Vermilion Bird Sect.

At this point, only a few people, including Wu Shuo, had yet to be found.

"Daoist Zi, you’ve come at the perfect time. Do you have any Array-Breaking methods?"

Mu Hongyu and Mu Chen were having a headache over a Tier Four Array.

Through the Array, a Spirit Field could be vaguely seen, containing many precious Spirit Medicines.

Unfortunately, the Array’s Tier was too high. Although time had corroded it into a Residual Array, it was still difficult to breach.

They had even used several Tier Four Talismans in an attempt to break it, but to no effect.

Zi Xi looked at Li Chang’an and asked, "Daoist Li, are you confident you can break this Array?"

"Not very."

Li Chang’an’s Skills were still at the Quasi-Tier Four level.

Although this Array was dilapidated, he wasn’t very confident he could break it completely, only that he could open a small crack.

Mu Hongyu was a little surprised and asked, "Daoist Li, are you perhaps proficient in the Array Dao?"

Li Chang’an replied, "I only know a little."

"Daoist Li, if you can lead us into the Array, you will have the first pick of the treasures inside."

Although Mu Hongyu’s group had discovered this place first, they lacked the ability to break the Array, hence the promise.

Naturally, Li Chang’an would not refuse.

He stepped forward, using his Array Dao Skill and an Illusion-Breaking Treasure, and stood before the Grand Array, observing it for a long time.

The others remained quiet, not wanting to disturb him.

「A moment later.」

Li Chang’an went to the edge of the Array, to a dilapidated opening, and began carefully dismantling it.

Before long, the entire Grand Array suddenly trembled, and a fissure about ten feet wide appeared at the opening, large enough for everyone to pass through.

"It’s done!"

Li Chang’an let out a sigh of relief and threw a pre-prepared Array into the gap to prevent it from closing.

Zi Xi and her group had expected this.

But Mu Hongyu and the other members of the Vermilion Bird Sect wore looks of astonishment.

’This Li Chang’an is not only a Tier Three Top Grade Alchemist and Artifact Refiner, but also a Quasi-Tier Four Array Master. What a prodigy. No wonder Zi Xi values him so much. It’s a pity his Spiritual Root talent is poor.’

The thought of Li Chang’an’s Low Grade Spirit Root made Mu Hongyu feel even more regretful.

Next, everyone filed through the fissure and entered the Array.

What greeted their eyes was an extremely vast Spirit Field.

Dense Spiritual Power had turned into a hazy mist that drifted between the plots of the Spirit Field.

Within the Spiritual Mist were hundreds, if not thousands, of all kinds of Spirit Medicines.

As far as the eye could see, the numerous Spirit Medicines glowed with a dazzling array of multicolored lights, so brilliant it was overwhelming.

Li Chang’an immediately spotted the Spirit Medicine he needed.

It was a blood-colored Ganoderma, fiery red all over, with nine petals, looking as if it were on fire.

’A Quasi-Tier Four Spirit Medicine, the Nine-headed Blood Sparrow Ginseng! This can be used for the later stages of Body Refinement. I was planning to use a different Spirit Medicine as a substitute, but I can’t believe I found one here. This trip has been a massive gain.’

Even without the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Stone from the Divination, Li Chang’an had already made a fortune on this trip.

With a flicker of his body, he immediately dashed toward the Spirit Medicine.

However, someone else made a move at the same time.

The Vermilion Bird Saint Child, Mu Chen, transformed into a bloody afterimage and appeared beside the Nine-headed Blood Sparrow Ginseng in the blink of an eye, intending to take it.

Li Chang’an’s brow furrowed slightly. He immediately cast a Magic spell to block him.

"Daoist Mu, we had an agreement. I have the first pick."

He waved his hand, digging up the Nine-headed Blood Sparrow Ginseng along with the Tier Four Spiritual Earth beneath it, and unceremoniously stashed it in his Spirit Beast Bag.

Seeing this, a shadow fell over Mu Chen’s eyes.

He cupped his hands. "Daoist Li is correct. I was presumptuous. However, this treasure is useful to me. Would Daoist Li be willing to part with it? I am willing to trade other treasures for it."

"This treasure is useful to me as well."

Li Chang’an shook his head slightly, not agreeing.

With a flicker of his body, he left the spot and continued to select other treasures.

Mu Chen’s face was expressionless as he stared deeply at Li Chang’an’s departing back.

Before long, Li Chang’an finished his selection.

He had taken almost all of the most valuable Spirit Medicines in the Spirit Field.

In addition, he had also taken more than half of the Tier Four Spiritual Earth.

After that, Mu Hongyu and the others began to divide the remaining harvest.

When everything was finished, Mu Hongyu walked over to Li Chang’an and sent him a voice transmission.

"Daoist Li, that Nine-headed Blood Sparrow Ginseng is indeed beneficial to our Vermilion Bird Sect’s Cultivation Technique. Mu Chen didn’t mean to argue with you. Please don’t take it to heart."

"Of course not."

Li Chang’an replied via voice transmission. He wasn’t so petty as to hold a grudge over such a small dispute.

Soon, the group set off again, heading deeper into the ruins.

「Two days later.」

Li Chang’an suddenly sensed Wu Shuo’s presence.
