Chapter 1776 – Longevity! Longevity!  

Finally, Number 327 opened her eyes. She turned towards Qin Yu and tears streamed down her face.

“Brother!”

She jumped into Qin Yu’s arms!

Qin Yu hugged her and softly whispered, “Little Seven, it is alright, it is alright now.”

Number 327 ended up falling asleep in his arms.

“Cough!” Bull Bean walked over. She was shocked, “I am sorry, I did not mean to. She…she is really your sister?”

Qin Yu nodded, “Yes.”

He picked Number 327 up and walked into his room. He placed her down and noticed her frowning slightly. Gently, he reached forward to wipe her tears and whispered, “I am sorry.”

Bull Bean walked behind him, “Qin Yu, you don’t have to blame yourself.”

Qin Yu sighed and stood up, “Bull Bean, I have to thank you. You have truly helped me a lot during this period.” He cupped his hands together, “Thank you! In the future, as long as I can do it, you don’t have to feel hesitant to make a request to me. I will not back down if I can do it!”

Bull Bean scoffed, “You expressed your attitude so quickly. Aren’t you afraid that I will be thick-skinned and I will stick to you like gum again? Qin Yu, don’t worry, I said before that I will not like you anymore.”

Qin Yu shook his head, “It is not like this.”

After a glance at him, Bull Bean said, “Forget it, forget it, I am a generous person and I shall not put you in a tight spot. However, you said it yourself – someday I will come and find you for help.”

Qin Yu confirmed, “I will do my best.”

Bull Bean asked, “Qin Yu, what are you going to do next?”

He gave a simple reply, “I do not know.”

Her eyes widened and she was filled with surprise, “Don’t know? You actually don’t know?”

Qin Yu laughed bitterly, “I am not able to predict everything; no one knows what is going to happen. Hence, I have to take it step by step.”

His eyes fell onto Number 327, “However, the first thing I am going to do is to take care of her. She was alone for all these years and as her brother, I have truly let her down.”

Back in the Southwest Fragmented Area, Qin Yu had even attacked Number 327 to get the inheritance of the Ruler.

The more he thought about it, the more guilt he felt. Thankfully, nothing too major happened.

Bull Bean said, “Having a brother is so good. I am starting to get jealous of Number 327.”

Qin Yu said, “You can call me brother too.”

“You are trying to take advantage of me!” Bull Bean’s eyes widened, “You had better be careful. We will be regular friends in the future and we had better maintain our distance. Otherwise, that Old Ancestor in my family will not let you off.”

Qin Yu burst out laughing and he suddenly felt much better.

Actually, he had not been turning her away when he told her he did not know what to do next.

The great grudge he held in his heart was finally resolved. Qin Yu could remain calm, but he could not help feeling an emptiness filling him and he felt at a loss.

He needed time to adjust.

Right now, Qin Yu was most worried about Number 327.

No matter what, she was from that clan.

Now, the heaven and earth spirit of fate identity had been stolen from that clan and as she carried the bloodline from that clan, she would suffer a backlash.

Qin Yu hoped that this backlash would not be too scary.

At least, it had to be something that he could control…otherwise, Qin Yu did not dare to think of it and he could not bear to face the consequences.

Bull Bean could sense how down Qin Yu was. She stepped forward, “Don’t worry, she will be fine.”

“Mm.”

Qin Yu sucked in a breath of air. He stood up and said, “Bull Bean, can I trouble you to take care of her? I have some things to do.”

“Alright.”

He turned and walked out. In a low voice, Qin Yu asked, “White Feifei, how is my sister?”

White Feifei said, “My Lord, you should not ask me this. You are the one who is most clear on her situation.”

His heart sank and he snapped, “Say it properly.”

White Feifei was stunned but she quickly added, “Not too good…mm, My Lord, you wanted the truth; don’t take your anger out on me.

“Of course, although she is not in a good state, it does not mean that something will happen to her immediately. Either way, there is a method to help her.”

Qin Yu demanded, “Tell me how.”

White Feifei answered, “The backlash of the bloodline running in her has sapped her life force in a short amount of time. In order to prolong her life, you need to extend her life force.

“Describing this is easy. As long as you can find a Longevity Species and get them to sacrifice their own origins, you will be able to extend her life. The hard part is that…hehe, Longevity Species want to be stronger too, and they will not easily sacrifice themself.”

Qin Yu asked, “What are your conditions?”

White Feifei replied, “My Lord, you know the current condition of my body best and I would be sacrificing too much in order to help Number 327. Therefore, if you want me to help you, you have to help me to continue retrieving my other body parts. Otherwise, even if you force me, I will not be able to sustain her for long.”

“Alright!” Qin Yu agreed without much hesitation, “I will help you.”

“Thank you, My Lord. I can guarantee that Number 327 is alright for now.” White Feifei paused for a while, “However, this solution solves the symptoms and not the issue. If you want to save her, it is not going to be that easy.”

The current Number 327 was like a water bucket with a leak; her life force was leaking out into the world. Replenishing her life force would allow her to live, but ‘the leak’ would become worse as time passed.

The rate at which she lost her vitality would increase!

In the end, she would collapse and there would be no way to save her.

Qin Yu was silent for a while. He spoke slowly, “Once I become the Blazing Sun, everything will be possible.” At this moment, the impulsiveness in his heart grew stronger.

……

Deep within the Bounded Voice Space, Sea of Confusion.

Boom –

Boom –

Powerful forces continuously exploded as two people were engaged in battle. One person was dressed in a long blue robe. His face was calm but firm and there was a determined look to kill in his eyes.

Even if the Yellow Springs of hell was depleted, he would not give up.

Opposite him was a daoist dressed in red. There were flames around him and the terrifying auras emanating from his body were destroying the world.

All of a sudden, the expression of the cultivator in a blue robe changed. He turned around sharply and his eyes filled with utter shock.

Very soon, the daoist in red also sensed something.

“Ha ha ha ha!” The daoist burst out laughing, “In the end, that clan has no roots and it should not continue to exist in this world. You finally received your punishment now and the identity of heaven and earth spirit of fate was stolen.”

He raised his hand and a flaming long sword instantly appeared. Its violent aura was shocking and he cried, “Qiu, you have chased me until here. Today shall be the day of your death.”

Boom –

The flaming long sword slashed down!

In an instant, it swept through the Sea of Confusion and a burning energy threatened to overwhelm the entire sea.

Deafening explosions sounded as Qiu was sent flying backwards. He raised his two arms in front of him in a blocking stance and his clothes were now scorched.

He spat out fresh blood uncontrollably, but the moment this blood left his body, it burnt from the heat.

After one slash, the daoist did not hesitate to release his next slash.

Following which, the third, fourth, and fifth slashes were performed!

Each attack was faster than the previous and they were also becoming increasingly fierce.

Frightening burning auras covered the Sea of Confusion with flames.

It was going to burn everything!

“Qiu, stop resisting. After the heaven and earth spirit of fate was stolen from you, you suffered a huge backlash. You are no longer a match for me.

“Give up, this is the destiny of that clan. From the time that you lost control rights over Southwest Fragmented Area, this was already decided many years ago.

“Let me send you off on your journey!”

The daoist’s voice was cold and his killing desire was intense.

He had been living for all these years with his hands tied and he had been chased all the way to the Sea of Confusion.

He had always been running for his life!

It was not that the daoist was not strong enough. As an Eternal who was so close to becoming a Longevity Species, his powers were frightening.

However, Qiu was even stronger!

Thankfully, after so many years of running, the daoist finally reached a turning point.

When that clan lost the heaven and earth spirit of fate, Qiu received a backlash. This was his greatest chance.

With his cultivation, killing Qiu would take some time, but at least he would be able to find his way back on his dao path.

“Scarlet Sky!”

With a low roar, flames rushed forward.

Boom –

A powerful energy exploded.

Daoist Scarlet Sky’s eyes bulged wide and he stood in utter shock. He virtually lost his voice, “No way!”

This aura…he broke through, Qiu actually broke through!

Bam –

The flaming long sword slashed down.

However, this time, it did not hit its target and it was smashed apart with a fist.

Daoist Scarlet Sky was sent flying back. His face was dark and there was disbelief and anger in his eyes.

Truly, it was true!

Damn it, Qiu broke through his bottleneck!

The sea of flames started to die down and Qiu walked out. The blue robe he wore had been scorched by the flames and Qiu appeared haggard.

However, no one could be bothered about this now.

Because Qiu was unbelievably strong now. He was virtually an immortal that would live for eternity.

Regardless of time, whether a million years passed or not, he would stay here firmly and nothing would be able to move him.

He had escaped the bindings of time!

This was one of the specialties of a Longevity Species.

It was above the King realm and once one overcame it, one would become a Longevity Species. It was not easy and the difficulty of this was immense. Not even one in a million King realm cultivators would be able to achieve this.

In order to resist the erosion of time and sustain vitality, an Eternal would appear.

They borrowed artifacts from a Longevity Species and merged with them after refining; this would allow them to become an Eternal.

Once someone achieves this realm, he would be qualified to become a Longevity Species.

Of course, to become an Eternal, one had to reach the King realm first. Qiu from that clan was already an Eternal many years ago.

“Standing up after breaking down…standing up after breaking down…” Lord Scarlet Sky muttered to himself and his eyes brightened.

I see!

No wonder he could not head in the right direction of breaking through even after so many years of hard work.

It seemed that success came to Eternals and failures came to Eternals too.

Because of the characteristic of being an Eternal, once someone lost their hands and decided to cut off their own means of retreat, they would be able to brace themself for the breakthrough and enter the Longevity realm!

Scarlet Sky raised his hand, lifting up the flaming long sword, and then sliced off his arm.

Boom –

The flaming long sword broke apart!

Ptui –

He spat out fresh blood and his face turned pale. Yet, his eyes grew even brighter.

Bottleneck, he could sense the bottleneck that was right in front of him.

This bottleneck was there for many years but he had not been able to sense it. It was the last door blocking him from the Longevity realm.

Now, it had finally appeared!

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Daoist Scarlet Sky burst out laughing.

Boom –

The aura of his body surged.

“Qiu, we shall fight again. Today, we shall see who will be able to surpass the other!”

Longevity was right in front of him!
