In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path Chapter 474

This two-ter-tall Heizi is just as it was ten years ago, fawning over its master as soon as it sees him.

It rolls on the ground with its four paws raised, raising a cloud of dust and causing the ground to shake slightly.

It grumbles at Chen Dengming for not waiting for it to return to Luo Family Mountain.

It’s so upset, it might as well be a weeping leopard.

“Alright, get up.

Even when lying down you’re taller than your master, and here you are, acting spoiled.

Even female leopards don’t fawn like you, have so dignity.”

Chen Dengming kicked it lightly.

...

The Black Cloud Leopard struggled to its feet, then flopped down again.

With a twinkle in its eyes, it raised its head towards the east and extended its tongue to pant, squinting as it expressed a leopard-style smile.

Having mastered the language of the leopard, Chen Dengming knew Heizi wanted to return to the Longevity Sect.

It couldn’t stand this broken place anymore.

He shook his head imdiately, saying, “I know your task is done, this ti you can go back with .”

The Black Cloud Leopard made a panting laugh, typical of leopards, rolling around on the ground in pure joy.

“Get up, you’re all covered in dust.

How am I supposed to ride you?”

Chen Dengming aid another light kick at it.

He cursed under his breath at this old demon leopard in the Foundation Establishnt stage.

God, it was becoming more and more human-like.

If it kept going like this, it might one day beco like that demon eagle in web novels that beca sentient, sit down with its master, drink hard liquor and swear brotherhood.

He conjured a cleaning skill, mounted the Black Cloud Leopard, bid Black Wind goodbye via divine sense, and left on the cloud.

…

Several days later.

Inside Brocade Mill.

Just as Chen Dengming was digging out the Spirit Vein that stretched for miles from the mountains, he received a ssage from the Ten Thousand Miles Voice Transmission Talisman.

The ssage, from Zhu Guangbiao, a Golden Core cultivator from his sect, brought spectacular news.

“…The mighty general of the Demon Bull Country in the Western Region was found dead in the wilderness.

It has been confird by the demon cultivators in the Western Region as the handiwork of a cultivator from the Eastern Region.

Therefore, you are credited with involvent in the slaying of the mighty general.

This rit, combined with the evidence from Heavenly Dao Sect cultivator Qiao Zhaoxian, as well as Shu Sword Pavilion cultivator Gao Lingxiao’s Audio-Visual Bead, affirms you as the pri contributor.

You can verify your rit as soon as you return to the sect.

Nephew Chen, congratulations…”

Chen Dengming took a mont to compose himself and quickly responded, “Thank you, Uncle Zhu, for the information.

This is indeed a wonderful piece of news.”

So he said, but deep down, he couldn’t help but sigh.

“Old Qiao and I were just talking about fattening up this old bull ourselves, then slaying it for our celebration after we break through the Golden Core…

We really didn’t expect this bull to be so weak and get itself killed.

Now we’ve lost a pri course for our banquet.”Inwardly lanting the loss, Chen Dengming shook his head.

If it weren’t for the distance from Qiao Zhaoxian, Old Qiao might have already sent a ssage to vent a bit.

“Nephew Chen, quickly return to the sect.

There’s another piece of great news for you.

The sect has decided to hold the selection process for this year’s Longevity Seed.

After discussion among Brother Xing and two ancestors, it was decided that you have been included in the list of candidates for the Longevity Seed.

You are eligible to compete in this Longevity Seed competition.

You are, perhaps, the fastest among us in the Longevity Sect who was able to earn a candidacy in so many years.

Given your current reputation, I have a good feeling that you might be the Longevity Seed…”

After listening to the ssage, Chen Dengming was dazed, then excited, then a little lancholic.

These two emotions collided with each other, leaving him feeling quite complicated.

Such remarkable news was coming at him so fast, he could hardly take it all in.

He had once chosen to keep a low profile, not wanting to get involved in the intense internal competition.

Yet, unbeknownst to him, he had beco deeply involved in it anyway.

Could it be that this mission to destroy the array was a kind of test from the sect?

His mind was filled with different thoughts.

Chen Dengming by now was intent on returning imdiately.

He had wanted to see what kind of figure Black Wind had invited, soone skilled enough to transport the Spirit Vein he found troubleso to move.

But now he couldn’t wait anymore, he needed to focus on his own affairs back at the sect.

Therefore, Chen Dengming summoned the Soul Attracting Banner and called Chu Xun from within, offering him so freedom to guard the Brocade Mill.

Given the Northern Region’s current unsettled state, there might be stray renegades crossing the Bright Cloud Mountain Range to cause trouble in Brocade Mill.

With Chu Xun stationed here, Chen Dengming could leave in peace.

Considering Chu Xun’s approach to the late Foundation Establishnt stage as a fierce ghost, ordinary False Core cultivators, unless they were Great Cultivators from a large sect, might not necessarily be his match.

He would be able to maintain order…
