69: Longevity

"Hmm?"

At this moment, inside the Cultivation room of the main house, a bald, muscular strong man seemed to have discovered something and withdrew from his Cultivation.

"Someone came in? Could it be that they returned?"

A flicker of excitement crossed the strong man's eyes, and he couldn't help but stick out his thick, fat tongue to lick the corner of his mouth.

Since White Moon's white mist only enveloped the courtyard and didn't spread inside, the strong man immediately sensed the presence of Zhang Daobai and Lin Luoxue the moment they entered.

"Haha! Looks like my luck is good!"

The strong man stood up with a sinister grin and strode outside.

"He's coming!"

Lin Luoxue looked towards the entrance and warned.

The next second, a two-meter-tall bald strong man walked out of the house, looking intensely at the two of them.

No! More accurately, he was looking at Lin Luoxue.

"Little beauty! I thought you ran away! I didn't expect you to come back!"

The strong man scanned Lin Luoxue's body with greedy eyes, smiling smugly.

"Sizzle!"

Seeing the strong man's disgusting gaze, Lin Luoxue instantly erupted with killing intent, and a large amount of golden lightning appeared around her body.

"What a fiery temper! I like it! I love conquering untamed little fillies like you the most!"

"Little beauty, stop following that useless pretty boy. Big Brother will let you know what true happiness is later!"

The strong man rushed toward Lin Luoxue with a wild laugh, a layer of bronze light film appearing on his body, making him resemble metal.

"Holy cow! Who are you calling a useless pretty boy?"

Hearing the strong man's words, Zhang Daobai immediately felt rage burning in his heart.

"Eye of Appraisal, activate!"

Zhang Daobai immediately opened the Eye of Appraisal and looked at the strong man fighting Lin Luoxue.

[Race: Human Race]

[Gender: Male]

[Aptitude: High Grade Gold Spiritual Root, Medium Grade Earth Spiritual Root]

[Talent: Gold Earth Defense]

[Status: Minor injury. Accumulated hidden injuries three inches below the back of the neck and between the third and fourth vertebrae below the lower back.]

[Treatment Plan: ...]

[Evolution Plan: ...]

[Overall Rating: Four Stars. Contracting is not recommended.]

After quickly reading the appraisal information, Zhang Daobai immediately told Lin Luoxue the location of the strong man's two hidden injuries.

The battle between the strong man and Lin Luoxue was intense. Although Lin Luoxue possessed Sword Intent, making her attacks fierce and powerful,

the strong man was a Body Cultivator who specialized in the Physical Body. His physical defense was comparable to a top grade Magical Artifact, and with a Low Grade Magic Treasure protecting him, he could withstand Lin Luoxue's attacks head-on.

"Refreshing!"

Although the strong man was covered in small wounds and dripping blood, he had not actually sustained any serious injuries.

"Alright, it's time to end this!"

After receiving Zhang Daobai's reminder, Lin Luoxue's gaze focused on the strong man's neck.

"Little beauty! Stop struggling!"

The strong man licked the blood from the corner of his mouth with his tongue and spoke with a sinister grin.

"Flash!"

Lin Luoxue wasted no words, her figure instantly vanishing from the spot.

"Sever!"

The next second, Lin Luoxue instantly appeared behind the strong man, and the sword in her hand, carrying an unstoppable Aura, slashed toward the back of his neck.

In that instant, a sense of impending death enveloped the strong man's heart, and his heart began to pound rapidly.

"Damn it! How did she know..."

The sinister grin on the strong man's face instantly froze, and his pupils contracted sharply.

"Clang!"

Only a sound of metal colliding rang out, and Lin Luoxue's spirit sword paused momentarily as it landed on the strong man's neck skin.

But in the blink of an eye, the defense the strong man was so proud of failed to stop Lin Luoxue's sword.

Golden light flashed, and blood splattered!

The strong man's neck was instantly severed halfway from behind by Lin Luoxue, and blood rapidly gushed out.

"Thud!"

Until the moment his consciousness dissipated, disbelief remained on the strong man's face.

Even as he died, he couldn't understand how Lin Luoxue had managed to find the weakness in his defense in such a short amount of time.

"My sword is still not sharp enough."

After the strong man died, Lin Luoxue showed no sign of happiness, instead looking at the sword in her hand with some dissatisfaction.

"Perhaps we should start preparing the Materials for a special Sword Body."

Zhang Daobai heard Lin Luoxue's murmur and offered comfort.

"Sword Body?"

Lin Luoxue's eyes brightened upon hearing this, but she quickly shook her head and said firmly, "We don't need to rush the Sword Body. I am confident I can advance my Sword Intent further through my own comprehension."

After removing the storage pendant from the strong man's body, Zhang Daobai checked the contents of the storage space.

"Another pervert!"

As soon as Zhang Daobai's Divine Sense entered the storage space, he saw a pile of various types of dudous (belly wraps).

Besides these items, the strong man's storage pendant also contained a large amount of Yao Beast flesh and blood, as well as many Spirit Medicine used to replenish vitality and blood.

The most valuable item among them was undoubtedly the Cultivation Technique that the strong man practiced, the Adamantine Body Refining Art, which was a Mysterious Grade Medium Grade Body Refining Cultivation Technique.

"Poor devil!"

Zhang Daobai couldn't help but complain after inspecting the contents of the storage pendant.

After collecting the strong man's corpse, Zhang Daobai dispersed the Spirit Concealing Mist surrounding the courtyard, then entered the main house to check.

He found that the furniture and facilities inside the main house had all been destroyed by the strong man, seemingly out of spite.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Daobai had no choice but to take Lin Luoxue into the Small World.

For the time that followed, Lin Luoxue entered the spirit taming space alone, practicing her Sword Technique tirelessly, hoping to further comprehend Sword Intent.

Zhang Daobai couldn't offer much help in this situation, so he organized all the recent sword Dao Cultivation Technique he had acquired and gave them to Lin Luoxue for direct comprehension.

With Lin Luoxue busy comprehending Sword Intent, Zhang Daobai was once again the only person left in the Small World.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, looking at the distant, continuous green mountains, Zhang Daobai suddenly had an impulse to ponder: What was the purpose of his Cultivation?

To establish for the Heaven and Earth... oh, wait! Was it for powerful strength? For a comfortable life? For peerless beauties?

Zhang Daobai looked into the distance, feeling a little lost. He felt that none of these were what he truly desired.

What is the purpose of cultivating immortality?

Longevity!

Suddenly, it was as if a voice answered within Zhang Daobai's heart, immediately bringing him back to his senses.

That's right! It is Longevity!

Zhang Daobai's eyes instantly brightened, and he had a clear goal in mind.

Longevity was the true Dao he ought to pursue!

Foundation Establishment grants two hundred years of life, Purple Mansion grants three hundred, Golden Core grants five hundred, and Nascent Soul grants a thousand years... The higher the cultivation level, the longer the lifespan, until eternity!

With a clear goal, Zhang Daobai began to consider how to choose his next Spirit Tamer.

The Yao Beasts in this Small World were countless, with all sorts of Yao Beasts possessing powerful Bloodline available, but choosing one became a difficult problem for Zhang Daobai.

At this moment, Zhang Daobai was like a nouveau riche who had won a hundred million—he had the money but didn't know how to spend it.
