Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age - Chapter 522

Chapter 522: Chapter 478: Return to Land_1

Over the broad ocean, one side was shrouded in white mist, covering the sky and earth, while the other side was bright with scattered stars, with the sky high above and the sea below, and cold winds blowing in gusts.

Two beams of escape light blazed across the sky, flying out of the mist, and came to a stop high up in the sky.

The light receded, revealing the figures of a man and woman. The man was dressed in a blue robe, his composure steady as a mountain, with a distant aura. The woman was dressed in green, cute and adorable, standing out with her elegance and pure beauty.

…

“We finally made it out!”

Xu Mu exclaimed, turning his head to look at the green-clothed girl beside him, and smilingly said, “We owe it to you this time, Yue!”

“As long as I can help brother, it’s all good!” Yue laughed.

If someone were to use divine intent to perceive at this moment, they would notice that Yue had already reached the initial Nascent Soul Stage, and furthermore, she had reached this stage by cultivating both her physical and energy bodies. Her strength far exceeded the average cultivator at the initial Nascent Soul Stage.

Honestly, Xu Mu did not anticipate that Yue’s cultivation would advance so quickly.

It was largely thanks to Yue’s help that they were able to safely cross the Misty Sea this time.

Perhaps it was due to the seed, even the Misty Sea, where even Xu Mu found it hard to discern directions, had no effect on Yue. They identified a direction and hurried along, successfully crossing the Misty Sea with only minor troubles along the way.

“Is this the place where brother was born?”

Yue gazed at the coast in the distance. Despite the distance, with her cultivation, she could still vaguely see it.

“We’re still a long way off, this is the Extreme North Region!” Xu Mu laughed.

“Oh! So, brother, which direction should we head next?” Yue asked.

“We still need to take care of some things here. Let’s go.”

Thinking of the pathetic state he was in when he was being hunted by the Beihan Immortal Palace while leaving the last time, Xu Mu thought that since he was back, he had to take revenge for his grievances.

The two transformed into beams of escape light again, heading towards the direction of the coast.

A few days later, Xu Mu, who had plundered the centuries of accumulation of the Beihan Immortal Palace, left the Beihan Immortal Palace with great flourish, under the respectful send-off of the palace master.

“No need to send me off!”

Xu Mu waved his hand, transformed into a beam of escape light, and flew towards the Eastern Region where the DaYuan Dynasty was located.

“Who on earth offended such a plague god!!!”

After Xu Mu’s figure disappeared into the sky, the Palace Master of the Beihan Immortal Palace who had been all smiles, finally roared with a thunderous dark face.

Not only did Xu Mu plunde their Beihan Immortal Palace’s accumulation, even their Nascent Soul cultivators were skinned.

If there were a competition for the poorest Nascent Soul cultivators, they would definitely be among the top.

The other Nascent Soul elders all lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

Who has offended more people than you?

Of course they had offended quite a few themselves. Who knows which one it was?

Furthermore, they were willing to pour guilt, what if the other party was just finding an excuse to rob them?

Anyway, the big fist is the truth, and they can only admit their fate obediently.

…

Central Region

Immortal Demon Battlefield

Ever since the Demon Gate took over the whole Southern Domain a hundred years ago, it attracted the attention of cultivators from the other regions. After discussions, they jointly dispatched troops, ready to clear the Demon Gate.

However, news leaked out, and the Demon Gate took the initiative. Somehow, they managed to turn everyone in the whole area into poison-infested corpses.

These poisoned corpses were not only hard to kill, but could also mutually devour each other for enhancement and assimilate common people and cultivators alike.

Initially, the cultivator forces were embroiled in internal strife, and due to their underestimating the opponents in the early stages, they were caught off guard, suffering heavy losses.

Only in the later stage, when the hidden Divinity Transformation cultivators took action, did the situation finally stabilize. They counter-attacked and cleared a large number of poisoned corpses.

At this time, the cultivators who had died in the early stages had already been transformed completely.

The Demon Gate’s strength greatly increased, and with their overwhelming numbers, they held a stalemate against the cultivator’s alliance.

In reality, the Cultivator’s Alliance still held a considerable advantage.

Although the Demon Gate had huge numbers, the majority were of medium to lower class, which was a far cry from the top tier cultivators.

However, the Demon Gate was very cunning. All of their high tier fighters were hidden, only using the lower tier poisoned corpses to handle the cultivator’s alliance.

They played the strategy of withdrawing when the enemy advances, advancing when the enemy retreats, disturbing when the enemy is stationed, and striking when the enemy is tired.

That was the reason the situation fell into a stalemate.

If they continued to maintain this situation, it would be extremely disadvantageous for the cultivator’s side.

After many discussions among the high tiers, they decided that the forces will take turns to station, on one hand to avoid a single force being completely exhausted, and on the other hand, to hone their own skills, so as not to lessen the numbers the more they fought.

Now stationed on the front line are the DaYuan Dynasty, Tian Dao Sect, Fairy Moon Palace… etc.

The forces of both sides were intermingled like canine teeth.

One particular outpost, similar to a canine tooth, was located in the Golden Mountain Range area.

The reason it was called the Golden Mountain Range was because there used to be several gold mines in the vicinity. Unfortunately, they had all been mined out long ago, and only the name remained.

Despite the gold being mined out, there was still plenty of other metals, which made the local metal elements rich, suitable for setting up combat arrays.

The Cultivator’s Alliance specifically set up a 36-tier Geng Jin Sword Array here and dispatched 500 cultivators to help eliminate the nearby poisoned corpses.

The overall leader of the outpost was Li Youlan, the Eleventh Princess of the DaYuan Dynasty, a high tier cultivator at the perfection stage of Golden Pill.

At this moment, Li Youlan called upon several deputy leaders of the Golden Pill stage and was discussing defense arrangements.

“Princess, we are sorry for dragging you down this time!” apologized Lan Shijin.

Li Youlan put down the jade slip in her hand and laughingly shook her head.

“Friend Xu asked me to take care of you all when he left. How can I ignore it?” She continued, “Besides, this time he may not be just looking for you to cause trouble, but also because of me.”

“What does the Princess mean?” Si Tan’er asked with a furrowed brow.

“Who else could it be, it must be my brothers and sisters.”

Li Youlan helplessly shook her head, the royal throne battle has not yet decided a victor, the others must be trying to suppress her.

Especially her seventh sister, who has a considerable grudge against her because of Xu Mu, she always tries to cause trouble for her if she gets a chance.

The two were about to ask further questions, but they were stopped by Li Youlan.

“Enough, let’s not talk about this, let’s discuss how to defend ourselves next! After all, it’s only ten years, it will pass by quickly.”

Their stationing period was 30 years, and 20 years had already passed. As long as they were a little careful, the other party couldn’t do much to them.

“Has the array been checked? How is it?” asked Li You Lan.

“We have checked it once, and 30% of it has been damaged. It will probably take half a year to fully repair.” replied Lan Shijin.

Li Youlan nodded, although it was a little worse than she expected, but she could barely accept it.

She then turned to Si Tan’er and the silent Ye Yingying, and asked about the situation of the pill stocks.
