This city was called Immortal City, and its overseer was a Longevity Realm cultivator named Daoist Purple Gold.
This Daoist was a cultivator of the True Treasure Path!
He was also among the earliest batch of cultivators to attain the Dao!
However, the information sold in a single bookstore was limited; most of it was common stuff—history, legends, or cultivation methods.
It merely gave him a deeper understanding of this city's history.
From this information, Li Qing keenly detected some problems.
"Interesting. This book contains legends and information on at least over three hundred Longevity Realm cultivators."
"And that's only what was recorded in one small bookstore. There are even more cities like this across this land."
"In other words, in ancient times, there seemed to have been quite a large number of Longevity Realm cultivators."
"It is completely incomparable to the present!"
"Where did all those Longevity Realm cultivators go? Did they all perish in the wars?"
"Over these tens of thousands of years, although cultivation has been difficult for Longevity Realm cultivators, at least seven or eight should have appeared every thousand years. That shouldn't have been a problem."
"Over tens of thousands of years, there should have been at least several hundred, right?"
"But according to my records, there aren't nearly that many Longevity Realm cultivators left alive today."
Li Qing suddenly noticed what lay hidden beneath this information.
His gaze could not help turning toward The Secrets of the World, which the Jade Tablet had once restored.
The mightiest Six Paths and Eight Immortals, as well as the pioneers of the Hundred Schools of Thought and the powerful Tribulation Realm cultivators—more or less, all of them had fused vast numbers of corpses into themselves.
He already had the answer in his heart.
