Never quite like youth again [Part two]

"Oh, right, here are a lot of letters for you." Yu Gensheng brought out a thick stack of them.

Qin Ming learned from the old man that almost all the major powers had left.

After losing the deterrent power of Jade Capital, many people are worried that external forces will fill the void, with the Imperial Dynasty, aristocratic Aristocratic Clan, and Ancestral Court of various religions likely to be the first to be affected.

When the Jade Capital hung high above, no one felt anything special.

However, once it moves, the situation changes completely; for top-tier organizations, this place becomes "Unclaimed Land."

Everyone knows the cruelty of the Night Mist World.

If other Supreme Dao Field, or even slightly inferior secondary civilizations, set their sights on this place and attempt to seize the vast territory abandoned by Jade Capital, who could stop them?

"Tai Xu, Northern Barrens, Eastern Land, Pugong, and other places, along with dozens of other regions similar to Night Prefecture, have all seen their renowned local powers flee to Jade Capital."

The Great Migration affected not only Night Prefecture, but the entire land under the jurisdiction of Jade Capital.

As for those Old Factions in the sky, needless to say.

Qin Ming was momentarily stunned, then said, "This land... is empty?"

Yu Gensheng nodded and said, "More or less." Jade Capital had an enemy, and now that it had gone far away, how could its subordinate forces not worry? They feared retaliation.

This is mainly because the Jade Capital, which hangs high above, is calling on all major forces to accompany it, and at that time, it will redefine Spirit Mountain, Blessed Land, etc., and provide them with compensation.

The higher-ups promised that Jade Capital would return to its original location, known as the Primordial Dao Field, where Super Fire Spring are far more numerous and dazzling than here.

Yu Gensheng said, "It is said that there are many sealed Secret Realm there, which will be opened one by one, ensuring that the accompanying major forces will not suffer losses."

Qin Ming frowned and said, "Won't this place become a cultivation wasteland?"

After everyone leaves, whether it's Night Prefecture, Tai Xu where Tang Yushang is located, or the Northern Barrens where the Old Barbarian God is located, all the surrounding areas will likely decline in a short period of time.

Yu Gensheng said, "Each religion left behind its traditions, but the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled have all left."

Now, the Beyond the Mundane Pure Land, the Immortal Land, and the Sunland are all gone, with only a few sick cats Little Cat left. Divine Medicine, the Nine-Aperture Immortal Bodhi Tree, and other treasures have all been moved away.

The lineage of Secret Sect Path is largely the same.

Yu Gensheng sighed, saying that this was a great loss for Night Prefecture.

"However, they had no choice; they were all conscripted."

"What about the major Ancestral Court on New Life Path?" Qin Ming asked with concern. Yu Gensheng replied, "Originally, they wanted to stay, such as the very strong and stubborn old man Sky-Pillar, and the Six Sovereigns, who were unwilling to go far away. However, the higher-ups of Jade Capital personally spoke up, summoning them twice in a row to accompany them."

Once is never enough, and several Ancestral Court along New Life Path had no choice but to relocate.

Yu Gensheng said in a low voice, "The outside world is speculating that it might be because of you."

Qin Ming frowned. Was it because he came from New Life Path?

Yu Gensheng nodded and said, "That's right. You are the youngest Ancestor in this era, and you are extremely capable in combat. You have never been defeated in battles against opponents of the same level. Those old monsters attach great importance to the path of the New Life System."

He asked, "Little Qin, what are your plans?"

Qin Ming said, "First, I will become an immortal in Night Prefecture."

Upon hearing this, Yu Gensheng froze on the spot. He was certain he hadn't misheard. Qin Ming, who still looked the same, was still young, and possessed a youthful spirit, was about to break through to the Seventh Realm?

It hasn't been that long since they last met; only ten years have passed since then. Back then, Qin Ming was still Master. The gap between then and now is simply too big!

The Talking Finch, with its wings transformed into fluffy little hands, couldn't hold the wine cup, and the wine spilled onto the ground. Its three beaks were all open, in disbelief.

"My lord, you have abandoned me and are about to ascend to immortality alone. No matter how hard I try, Little Finch can never catch up with you."

The Red Squirrel and the Thunder King Bird were even more astonishing. Was this True Immortal in his thirties about to break all records? "What an incredible Niu Ben!"

The Red Squirrel lacks a talent for language; it first calls out "Niu Ben," and then expresses its shock with a "Wo Lang."

The Thunder King Bird was crackling with electricity; the whole bird was stunned.

"Little Qin... you're actually going to become an immortal?" Village Chief Xu Yueping asked in a trembling voice.

Lu Ze didn't understand what this age meant, and couldn't help but ask Wen Rui, "This... seems incredibly extraordinary?"

Wen Rui was initially shocked and horrified, but when he looked at Qin Ming, he showed admiration.

He told his father, "Let me put it this way, my uncle is most likely making history, and he's going to leave a significant mark on the annals of history."

As Qin Ming's personal disciple, he had naturally come into contact with many people of great importance over the years, thoroughly integrating into the cultivation world and deeply understanding just how remarkable his master was.

Wen Hui, who was already a cultivator, was filled with awe. Even though he called Qin Ming "Uncle," he was still intimidated.

Yu Gensheng, regaining his composure, said, "Little Qin, you are truly breaking myths and surpassing even the most revered ancestors."

Qin Ming put down his wine cup and laughed, "You don't need to praise me like that, old man. There are no clear records of what those supreme Dao Venerable of ancient times looked like when they were young."

Yu Gensheng said, "If Liu Tianshen knew all this, he would be very pleased." Qin Ming said, "I'll go into the mountains later and see if I can awaken him."

With less than a year to go, Liu Mo's "final year" will arrive.

Yu Gensheng slapped his forehead and said, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you, Liu Tianshen has successfully completed his mission and has already left Black White Mountain."

"Yes, that's right." Talking Finch nodded in agreement.

"What?" Qin Ming was stunned. He had calculated the time and returned to Night Prefecture ahead of schedule. He had been worried about Old Liu and wanted to protect him as much as he could after he became an immortal.

Wen Rui said, "Grandpa Liu said that 'nine-five' is just a figure of speech; even if he has the ambition to conquer the world, he dares not aspire to be the sole ruler."

Qin Ming said, "So, his claim that perfection could only be achieved in ninety-five years was actually a smokescreen. He has already achieved Great Nirvana ahead of schedule and escaped the predicament?"

"Yes, that's right."

Qin Ming was speechless; Liu Tianshen had gone too far with his composure!

He was constantly worried, after all, the last "August 4th" battle was too intense, all sorts of Divine Capital emerged, making it quite dangerous.

Who would have thought that before the most crucial Nodes predicted even arrived, Liu Mo had already packed up and left the seclusion.

Yu Gensheng said, "Actually, most of Senior Liu's main opponents died last time." "That's true." Qin Ming nodded. Ten years ago, Old Liu was very dark and played a big game of chess. He deserves to have the word "ink" in his name.

In that battle, Liu Mo killed several wanted criminals at the Heavenly Immortal level. Some of them were even personally "informed" by him, who invited them to come out of seclusion and plot something big together.

Qin Ming said, "That's good, now we don't have to worry at all."

He asked for details: Why did Old Liu leave?

Wen Rui said, "Grandpa Liu said he's been trapped here for over five hundred years, wasting far too many years. And since the Night Mist World is so vast, he wants to travel and see it all."

Liu Mo walked away with his Big Yellow Dog, looking very carefree.

Qin Ming said, "He's leaving like this, not caring about the Divine Woman anymore?"

He already knew that Liu Mo had a son late in life, and that Liu Bai was actually his Divine Embryo.

Everyone in the room looked puzzled. Then Yu Gensheng told him, "The Divine Woman doesn't exist."

In fact, Qin Ming had also suspected the Divine Woman, but he hadn't gone into any deeper connections.

As Wen Rui, Yu Gensheng, and others explained, Qin Ming felt his worldview being challenged.

Liu Mo's wife, the Divine Woman, was an incarnation of Old Liu himself. Even his mediocre eldest and second sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren were all manifestations of him.

The family was complete and well-organized; there wasn't a single outsider among them.

Qin Ming was stunned. Old Liu really knows how to play games!

Back then, the only "outsider" was a yellow dog, which was none other than the Dog Sword Immortal.

Qin Ming was lost in thought, and silently mourned for three breaths for Big Yellow.

It turns out that even during the time Liu Mo was away alone, the Dog Sword Immortal was actually living in Old Liu's shadow.

Back then, the Dog Sword Immortal certainly didn't know the truth, otherwise why would he have sent a fat panda to protect the Divine Son Liu Bai?

Yu Gensheng said, "Liu Tianshen has changed his name; after emerging from seclusion, he calls himself Mo Bai."

How is he?

Qin Ming asked.

Yu Gensheng said, "He looks to be in his early twenties, full of vitality. He is very satisfied, saying that he has not wasted hundreds of years and has now been reborn, with an even longer lifespan."

This is somewhat frightening. Liu Mo, in his youthful state, has reverted to his true body, starting everything anew, with limitless possibilities for the future.

"Given this environment, Old Liu's achievement is truly remarkable," Qin Ming exclaimed.

Wen Rui said, "Although Grandpa Liu has passed away, he left behind his contact information... In case of emergency, you can burn down his old house; in case of a life-or-death matter, you can burn down the Black White Twin Trees."

Qin Ming: "..."

After the welcoming banquet, he began to look through his letters.

"Little Qin, I'm leaving. The entire Meng Clan is migrating, and I will go with them..." This is a letter from Meng Xinghai.

He chose the Secret Sect Path, Red Haze City was the Godhood Grounds. However, faced with the overwhelming tide of events, he had no choice but to give it up.

However, this does not affect other Dao Path.

Because the Secret Sect Path has now abandoned ancient methods and emphasizes collecting the essence of various places, it is not limited to one place and can have better choices.

"Qin Ming, I'm going to the area where the Primordial Dao Field is located..." Fourth Princess Yao Ruoxian of the Great Yu Dynasty wrote a lot, informing about the changes in Night Prefecture over the years and her final destination.

"Ming Ge, this is Little Bai. I'm leaving. Now that I've broken the Curse on my body, I feel like I can send my former opponents flying a thousand meters..." This was Bai Meng's letter.

"Qin Ming, I'm going on a long journey..." Tang Yushang wrote a very long letter.

Night Prefecture did not become a wasteland for cultivation; soon after Jade Capital departed, some people entered the area.

"Jade Capital, something we haven't been able to find even after hovering over this place for many years, can we really expect to find something?"

How will you know if you don't try?

"Many things are often influenced by chance. Jade Capital failed despite all his efforts, but perhaps an ordinary person will succeed by accident."

"While those old men are being stingy with their Primordial Qi and Black-Yellow Qi, making it unsuitable for them to travel, let's strive to gain something!"

Qin Ming appeared outside Black White Mountain, carrying a stack of letters as he entered the mountain in search of a suitable place for seclusion.

"Many old friends have passed away. If I want to see them in the future, it seems I'll have to go back to the Primordial Dao Field," he muttered to himself. But the most important thing now is to break through to a higher level.

Ji Mo is gone, and Great Sage Zheng Guang has arrived.

Qin Ming plans to go into seclusion to comprehend the Dao, to pave the New Life Path, and to become an immortal without changing his life form!
