Inside Life-Extending Temple.
"..."
After finishing the Communication Transmission, Ye Li put away the Token, got up and walked out of the main hall.
Those disciples who had collapsed to the ground due to the tremors of their Dao Foundation and had not yet had time to leave retreated to the sides upon seeing him approach, not daring to raise their heads.
Most of them weren't even eligible to sit at the birthday banquet just now.
But the shocking scene of the three True Person' demise was clearly visible!
Ye Li ignored their plans.
With a casual wave of his hand, a figure dressed in a blue Daoist Robe appeared beside him.
"Viewer?!"
The disciples nearby were visibly shaken, almost thinking they were hallucinating!
However, at this moment, the other party was standing beside Ye Li with his head bowed, his expression so respectful that they could hardly believe it.
Ye Li casually gave the order:
"Call everyone still in the temple to the Plaza, don't forget anyone."
"I will obey the Imperial Edict of my Lord."
True Person Everlasting Spring bowed respectfully in response and then walked away into the distance.
Ye Li followed the location from the Memory Scroll, passing through Life-Extending Temple, and arrived at the heavily guarded treasure vault.
Of course, the term "heavy defense" only refers to the situation before.
Now, only two disciples bound by contracts remain outside the treasure vault, their faces pale as they stand guard.
Upon his arrival, the two gatekeeper disciples quickly bowed in greeting.
One of them looked at the tightly closed storeroom door and said tremblingly:
"Palace Heir, this place requires the abbot's token to open."
"We're just guards; we don't have the ability to break the seal..."
"Just move aside."
Ye Li did not make things difficult for them, his voice calm.
Once the two men stepped back, he raised his hand and threw a punch.
Boom!!!
The protective barrier on the gate collapsed on the spot!
The heavy stone door crumbled immediately afterward, revealing neatly arranged jade shelves inside.
The two disciples trembled at the sight and dared not utter another word.
Ye Li went inside alone.
This place truly lives up to its Dao Lineage that prolongs the lives of many noble families; the quantity of Treasure Medicine it has collected is astonishing.
Ye Li could sense that the strongest rays of spiritual light within the restrictions had developed a faint intelligence under the suppression of the Laws of the True Source World, which was enough to demonstrate their high level of spirituality.
But just as monsters deserve to be killed, so too do bad people deserve to die.
Ye Li viewed these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as merely buffs, so he naturally didn't have any ulterior motives when refining them.
Alas!
He raised his hand and gestured.
Large amounts of Treasure Medicine flew up from the jade shelf and fell into the rising Crimson-Gold Divine Fire!
A rich aroma of herbs quietly filled the air.
While refining medicine, Ye Li took out several Jade Slip sealed deep inside and looked through them one by one.
Among them is the Fortune-Mastery method, which is considered fundamental for Life-Extending Temple.
[Everlasting Spring Dao-Nourishing Method].
This method records in great detail the process by which the Great Dao nourishes the physical body and the Divine Soul.
However, the further Ye Li read, the more he realized the limitations.
Many intractable obstacles require external assistance.
Compared to the Fortune-Mastery that Qingyuan True Cultivator taught him... it was indeed far inferior.
"However, it's not entirely useless."
Ye Li noted down a few points worth noting, then put away the Jade Slip.
Looking at multiple approaches is never a bad thing for the deduction.
After all the Treasure Pellet had taken shape and he had pocketed them, Ye Li left the treasure vault with satisfaction and returned to the Plaza.
Now.
All the remaining monks in the temple have gathered in this Plaza.
Upon seeing Ye Li approach, True Person Everlasting Spring immediately stepped forward, bowed, and respectfully said:
"My lord, the disciples within the temple have been assembled."
The words had barely left his mouth.
The nearby disciples all knelt down, followed by a deafening roar of greetings:
"Greetings, Palace Heir Ye!"
"We greet Your Palace Heir!"
Ye Li walked up to the High Platform, sat down in the chair that True Person Everlasting Spring had brought in advance, glanced at the terrified cultivators below, and calmly said:
You don't need to be so nervous.
"I follow the rules even when I kill; if I don't break the law, I won't die."
Upon hearing this...
Many cultivators, who had been tense, finally relaxed a little.
Some of them subconsciously looked around, wanting to see how others would react.
But then, the young man chuckled softly:
"However, if you commit a crime, you must die."
The words hadn't even finished being spoken.
The True Person Everlasting Spring standing beside him had already raised his palm!
A vast surge of Immortal Essence descended from the sky above the Plaza like a collapsing curtain, then split into beams of azure light, precisely striking the numerous figures in the crowd!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The series of muffled thuds froze the disciple who had just stood up in place once again!
Those elders and deacons responsible for presiding over the Array Formation and selecting villages and towns for the temple all became lambs to the slaughter at this moment and were directly killed on the spot!
It wasn't that no one tried to resist or struggle, but under the suppression of the Daoist aura of the Fortune-Mastery Realm, they couldn't stir up any trouble!
The scream had barely begun when it vanished without a trace.
True Person Everlasting Spring remained standing in the same spot, while a large number of figures on the Plaza had already disappeared!
The power of the Fortune-Mastery Realm is fully demonstrated here.
"..."
The remaining disciples felt a chill run down their spines.
The cultivators standing next to the corpses were especially pale-faced and breathing heavily!
Ye Li took in their reactions and continued:
"Don't be alarmed, those who just died were all people involved in the life-extending scheme."
"As for the rest, I'll give you two options."
"Those who want to leave can do so now and find another way out."
"Those who wish to stay can wait here. Someone will come to pick you up and place you under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Clarity Palace."
That's all.
He rose from the High Platform and returned to the Main Hall.
The place has been cleaned, the broken table has been moved out, and the main seat has been rearranged.
Ignore the commotion coming from the Plaza outside.
"..."
After Ye Li sat down, he casually summoned his own control panel.
On the pale blue light screen, an exciting and astonishing number appeared:
[Current Malice Points: Points!]
"Three trillion nine hundred eight hundred billion..."
Ye Li looked at the string of numbers, a sense of relief appearing on his face.
This is his greatest Martial Dao foundation.
Judging from the feedback Golden Soul gave after entering the capital, the Longwind Divine Dynasty should indeed have True Lord in charge.
Otherwise, he would never have felt such a strong sense of crisis.
But so what?
With this savings in hand, plus the many methods and trump cards he had prepared beforehand, he was fully capable of handling any unexpected situation!
Ye Li put away the panel and picked up the file again.
Not long after.
True Person Everlasting Spring arrived in the hall and respectfully reported:
"My lord, the outcome is already known in the observation."
About 70% of the disciples are willing to stay, while the remaining 30% plan to leave.
Seeing that Ye Li did not speak, he added on his own initiative:
"The cultivators here have been bound by the Divine Dynasty for many years, and many have long been poisoned by those doctrines and cannot change their ways."
"My lord need not worry about this, they..."
"It's okay, I don't mind."
Ye Li raised his hand to interrupt, casually giving the order:
"Go ahead and make the arrangements; someone will be here to meet you shortly."
He has always adhered to the principle of respecting the fate of others, so he would never care about such a trivial matter.
"I will obey the Imperial Edict!"
True Person Everlasting Spring bowed and accepted the order.
But not long after he left, another Treasure Ship descended outside the temple.
However, this time, it wasn't Shen Lingyi and the others who came.
Instead, it was a gilded royal treasure Treasure Ship, similar to the one the Third Princess used when she traveled to Linze, engraved with rare and Mutant Beast!
It's obvious.
After searching through several locations, the visitor finally pinpointed Ye Li's location.
The Second Princess Qin Mingshu has arrived!!
