Such an object imbued with Dao Rhythm is truly extraordinary.
"If I choose not to use the once-in-a-decade opportunity now, can I use it at any ti later?"
Li Qian imdiately inquired.
He did not wish to use such an observation opportunity lightly; he must wait until he was in an Enlightennt State.
That way, it wouldn’t be wasted.
"Daoist Qian Yuan, naturally you can, but... it can only be used once every hundred years."
Elder Bai nodded and said.
"That’s good."
Li Qian nodded.
If he cannot grasp the Sword Dao Rhythm even in an Enlightennt State, then having nurous opportunities would likely be of little help.
Since he had decided to beco a Longevity Level Guest Elder for Heavenly Sword Manor, Li Qian naturally planned to personally visit Heavenly Sword Manor with Elder Bai to secure his status, so that he could use the Heavenly Sword Stele whenever necessary.
After all, he did not know when the Enlightennt State would occur.
That very day, Li Qian and Elder Bai left Yiling Town to head for Heavenly Sword Manor.
This was his first ti venturing out of the Chen Bell Domain since entering the Longevity Realm.
It goes without saying, stepping out of the Chen Bell Domain, the sense of security really seed insufficient.
However, he was still sowhat confident in his own strength.
Although it had not been many years since he entered the Longevity Secret Realm, he had nurous trump cards; ensuring his own safety was not a problem.
Moreover... there were no ominous premonitions about this trip to the Heavenly Sword Manor with Elder Bai.
Traveling through the Longevity Realm was much slower compared to the Human World.
He estimated he could reach no more than one-tenth of the speed.
That was normal; in the Human World, Heavenly Persons could fly.
But in the Longevity Realm, only Martial Saints were capable of flight.
One could imagine how vast the difference was.
After flying continuously for more than a day, Li Qian and Elder Bai arrived at Heavenly Sword Manor.
The entire manor was built upon a massive primordial vein, hence the Primordial Qi was exceptionally abundant; such a place, situated in the Heavenly Spring Gobi, was an extraordinarily rare feng shui treasure.
According to what Li Qian understood, the reason Heavenly Spring Gobi was nad as such was due to its proximity to the Black Absolute Desert.
The area of Black Absolute Desert was not large, it was said that even its core region was less than a thousand miles, yet it was always expanding.
Rumors have it that the Black Absolute Desert was ford ten thousand years ago, and its cause of formation remains unknown; it is one of the notorious deadly lands in the Longevity Realm, where even Longevity Secret Realm powerhouses, once they enter the core area of the Black Absolute Desert, can’t expect to co back out.
"What a heavenly human paradise."
Li Qian stood high in the sky, gazing at the clear mountains, beautiful waters, and the myriad of exotic flora within Heavenly Sword Manor, expressing his utmost admiration.
Such a cultivation paradise was simply unseen in the Human World.
Even the Barbaric Land couldn’t compare to it.
"Daoist Qian Yuan is jesting, it’s considered decent in the Tianquan Gobi, but when compared to other major powers’ sects, it’s like the difference between heaven and earth."
Elder Bai shook his head and chuckled with a bitter smile.
He had seen a leading power’s gate of the Eternal Dynasty, which was truly a fairyland.
Not to ntion the Langhuan Blessed Land controlled by the Eternal Royal Family, which is one of the nine great Blessed Lands of the Longevity Realm.
He had only heard of it but never had the chance to witness it.
After all, such Blessed Lands were only accessible to the core mbers of the Eternal Royal Family for cultivation.
Elder Bai waved his hand, and a Command Flag flew back, imdiately opening a portal between heaven and earth.
"Elder Qian Yuan, please."
Sensing with his Spiritual Sense, Li Qian beca sowhat interested in the Array of the Heavenly Sword Manor.
It appeared that the Heavenly Sword Manor’s Array had reached the level of an Eleven Base Formation.
Eleven Base Formations were nonexistent in the Human World.
Even Li Qian was only capable of setting up a Ten Base Formation.
Although his Array expertise had reached eleven bases, the difficulty of setting it up was imnse.
Especially the materials required for an Array were rare, and even if they existed in the Human World, it was very hard to et the demands.
Without further ado, the two soared in.
"Such intense Primordial Qi, and within it, it seems to contain a Five Elents Attribute..."
Li Qian was astounded.
"Daoist Qian Yuan is not aware, the Primordial Qi within the manor has been adjusted by the Array, thus containing the Five Elents Attribute, which has a certain aid in cultivation."
Elder Bai explained.
"There is such an Array?"
Li Qian’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Daoist Qian Yuan is an expert in Arrays, don’t you know?"
Elder Bai expressed his surprise.
"Elder Bai, a Loose Cultivator like has no access to advanced Array knowledge... I’m a source of ridicule."
Li Qian shook his head and chuckled bitterly.
"Daoist Qian Yuan is being modest."
Elder Bai, however, was not entirely convinced.
Believing that only modesty led Li Qian to claim the ability to arrange such an advanced array in Yiling Town.
Soon, under Elder Bai’s guidance, the two entered an elegant and tastefully decorated guest hall.
The interior of the guest hall was exquisitely furnished, the epito of luxury.
Even the tables and chairs appeared to be crafted from a very special exotic wood, emitting an intangible aura that cald the mind.
"Daoist Qian Yuan, please wait for a mont; the Young Master should be arriving shortly."
Elder Bai said.
Then, a mansion disciple brought in so tea, naturally infused with special primordial qi as well.
"No hurry."
Li Qian said with a smile.
As they chatted casually, a sequence of footsteps approached from outside, followed by a figure clad in a green robe walking towards them.
Looking over, Li Qian saw a young woman, dressed in dark cyan, her black hair tied up high, a delicate face showcasing her valiant spirit.
Yet, a red dot at her brow seed to conceal an invisible ferocity, adding a touch of ruthlessness to her charm.
"Elder Bai, is this Daoist Qian Yuan?"
Upon entering, the woman turned to Li Qian and greeted him with a salute.
"Young Master, yes, this is Daoist Qian Yuan."
Elder Bai hastily introduced them, "Daoist Qian Yuan, this is the Young Master of Heavenly Sword Manor."
"Greetings to the Young Master."
Li Qian imdiately stood up and greeted her with a salute.
He had gathered so information about Heavenly Sword Manor using Yiling Town’s intelligence network prior to his visit.
This Young Master was no ordinary woman; in the vast Heavenly Spring Gobi, she was known by the nickna "Green Sword Demon."
Of course, to beco a powerhouse within the Longevity Secret Realm, none were common.
"Daoist Qian Yuan, no need for formality. You’re a Guest Elder of our Heavenly Sword Manor, so we should address each other as equals. Just call Qingping."
The Young Master, Lin Qingping, stated.
This Young Master was also a person of decisive action. After a brief conversation and confirming Li Qian’s status as a Guest Elder, she promptly left.
Eventually, it was Elder Bai who escorted Li Qian out of Heavenly Sword Manor.
Originally, Elder Bai hoped that Li Qian would stay longer at Heavenly Sword Manor.
However, Li Qian politely declined.
Within soone else’s domain, he still felt unsafe.
Even as a Guest Elder who could freely co and go from Heavenly Sword Manor.
Inside a great hall,
Several elders of Heavenly Sword Manor gathered.
Both Young Master Lin Qingping and Elder Bai were present.
"The Old Manor Master’s injuries are becoming uncontrollable."
Young Master Lin Qingping sighed.
The elders present all had heavy expressions.
After all, the Old Manor Master was the backbone of Heavenly Sword Manor; the decline of the manor was inevitable once the Old Manor Master withered away.
Present were elders surnad Lin or those who were Direct Disciples trained by the Old Manor Master, or closely tied to the interests of the Lin Family.
They were the core direct forces of Heavenly Sword Manor.
"With the strong alliances we’ve forged in recent years, even if the Old Manor Master truly... we should be able to sustain ourselves."
An elder spoke.
Everyone present understood his implication.
The Old Manor Master, as a Longevity Secret Realm powerhouse, could live for tens of thousands of years with ease.
But that was without combat... Sustaining irreparable injuries would drain lifebound spirit energy, resulting in drastically shortened lifespans, impacting the Return to Void process and leading to insufficient spiritual energy, creating a vicious cycle.
"Hmph, who knows if they’re just fair-weather friends..."
Young Master Lin Qingping sniffed coldly: "After all, they’re not truly our own people of Heavenly Sword Manor, whether they can be relied upon at the crucial mont remains unknown."
Naturally, all those present were very aware of this.
"Young Master, they still have so usefulness, though."
Elder Bai said, "I’ve heard that the Spiritual King Mansion of the Eternal Dynasty is about to hold an auction, featuring a life-extending elixir. If we can secure it, it would surely grant the Old Manor Master another hundred years of life."
"It’ll be difficult, such elixirs are coveted by many... and the Netherworld Palace will also not let us easily obtain the life-extending elixir."
Another elder remarked.
Netherworld Palace was another formidable force in the Tianquan Gobi and had always been at odds with Heavenly Sword Manor, almost to the point of becoming sworn enemies.
"No matter the cost, I must secure the life-extending elixir."
Young Master Lin Qingping said firmly.
The longer the patriarch sat in power, the more ti she had to grow.
Now she only resented her own weakness.
