The Eight-Thousand-Year-Old Devil Hidden in the Mystic Moon Sect, Old Devil Han's Philosophy of Life!

Mystic Moon Sect, Miscellaneous Service Area, Spirit Beast Garden Steward's Office.

A compressed version of Maitreya Buddha descended from the sky.

It was You Yun, the Eighth Elder, who had come from the main peak.

In the courtyard, an old man, frail and thin, with disheveled hair and dressed in tattered linen clothes, was tidying up the flower bushes.

It seemed to sense the arrival of You Yun.

Without looking up, he said, "That Ji Lingtian, what do you estimate his chances of success?"

You Yun squinted her small eyes.

" You Yun's lifespan has inexplicably increased by at least several hundred years. Perhaps it is precisely because of this increased lifespan that he has the opportunity to break through."

The old man raised his head, his cloudy eyes looking at You Yun.

A hoarse, trembling voice asked, "Should I increase my lifespan first, then break through?"

"Yes!"

"Do you know how it was increased?" the old man asked again.

" Old Devil Han, now is not the time to discuss this. Ji Lingtian is about to break through. If he succeeds, all our plans will be in vain."

"No!" Old Devil Han shook his head.

"That's what's most important to me."

Old Devil Han looked up at the sky, wisps of black energy emanating from his eyes.

He muttered to himself, "I'm dying!"

For a dying person, nothing is more important than extending their lifespan.

"You think breaking through to the Dao Integration Realm is that simple?"

Old Devil Han bent down and picked up the bucket next to him.

"The Spirit-Guiding Spirit Platform is simple, but having the Spirit Platform is not enough; one must also find one's own Path. Only when one has found the Path can one be said to be in Dao Integration."

" Ji Lingtian has not yet found his own path. This search could take anywhere from three days to several months."

So, what's the rush?

You Yun Song.

He understood this principle, but upon suddenly hearing the news that Ji Lingtian was about to break through, he panicked and lost his composure.

"Tell me, what unusual things have happened around Ji Lingtian lately?"

As he spoke, Old Devil Han poured the water from the bucket into the flowerbed, little by little.

The water, however, looked as black as ink and as thick as porridge.

A Yinyin, sweet and spicy aroma wafted through the air.

It doesn't look like anything legitimate.

After the Blackwater was poured into the flowerbed.

In that flowerbed, there used to grow strange flowers that looked like sunflowers.

It seemed to come alive, swaying excitedly.

Its stem is like a snake, its leaves are like serrated teeth, Stamen are like mouthparts with teeth inside. When it opens and closes, it makes a sound like grinding iron.

"Little ones, don't worry, you'll be truly free soon."

Old Devil Han stroked the leaves of one of the flowers and said with a smile.

You Yun took two steps back with a look of disgust on her face.

Then he spoke up, saying, "The strangest thing about Ji Lingtian lately is the appearance of a boy named Ling Yi."

"Hmm!" Old Devil Han nodded gently.

"He was originally an ordinary disciple in the miscellaneous Spiritual Field area, but recently he was suddenly diagnosed with Desolate Ancient Spiritual Root."

"Is this the commotion that happened yesterday?" Old Devil Han asked.

"Yeah, that kid was the one who caused all the commotion yesterday."

" Desolate Ancient Spiritual Root, what a pity, what a pity!" Old Devil Han shook his head.

"It's strange, but if this Desolate Ancient Spiritual Root were placed in the ancient times, it would definitely be an unparalleled genius, capable of ruling an era."

"In today's terms, it's not even as good as the lowest-grade Mixed Spiritual Root."

Logically speaking, Ji Lingtian should have ignored it.

Even if there's a glimmer of hope, they should still be kept close and nurtured.

"But he placed this boy beside his daughter, Ji Luo Xue, as a servant."

"Furthermore, they eat and live together, but Ji Luo Xue and Ling Yi's relationship is extremely close, far beyond what is simply between a servant."

"Anything else?" Old Devil Han narrowed his cloudy eyes slightly and continued to ask.

"Also, that girl Ji Luo Xue has broken through her cultivation level again."

" Nascent Soul Realm, or even the Pinnacle of the Nascent Soul Realm."

When did you break through?

"Tonight, the exact time is unknown, and how the breakthrough was achieved is also unknown."

"Did she break through after that kid named Ling Yi appeared by her side?" Old Devil Han asked.

"Yes!"

"You wouldn't suspect that Ji Lingtian's increased lifespan and the opportunity to break through, and Ji Luo Xue's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul, are all related to this Ling Yi, would you?"

Old Devil Han shook his head and smiled, "You don't understand!"

There are always some special people in this world.

Old Devil Han seemed lost in his memories, his voice sounding somewhat the Ethereal.

"In my more than eight thousand years of life, I have only ever suffered a loss at the hands of two young people."

"Fifteen hundred years ago, there was a boy whose bone age indicated he was not yet twenty."

"Yet, with just his fist, a single punch, he shattered my Dao Integration Realm body into a mangled mess."

Even his soul was shaken and damaged, forcing him to flee for his life in a sorry state.

"That was the first time since I began cultivating immortality that I truly experienced fear and death."

At this point, Old Devil Han fell silent.

But You Yun noticed that Old Devil Han's body was trembling slightly.

"The second one is from six thousand years ago, when a girl who was only seventeen or eighteen years old used a wooden stick, an ordinary wooden stick, to casually chop it."

"One of my arms was severed."

"Although that little girl exhausted all her strength, including her lifespan, and died instantly after that attack, if that strike had been a few degrees stronger, I might have died."

"And that girl was just a country girl who had never seen the world. Let alone cultivating immortality, she had never even seen a cultivator."

"If she hadn't died, and had grown stronger, she would have become an invincible sword immortal."

"It was this girl who shattered my pride and taught me what reverence truly means."

"Since then, I have lived cautiously and carefully, observing more, thinking more, and growing in a low-key manner."

"In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, only by living can you have everything. Otherwise, even if you are an eternally powerful being, once you die, you are nothing."

You Yun also felt his mind tremble.

He was only a little over seven hundred years old. In terms of knowledge and cultivation, he was just a primary school student in front of Old Devil Han.

"So, what should we do?"

"Keep an eye on that kid, but do nothing. Record what he does every day with a recording stone and give me a copy each day."

You Yun frowned. "But that kid is on the main peak, and he's still living in Ji Luo Xue's cave. Most of the time, we can't get close to him."

"As much as you can!"

"Understood!"

"What about Ji Lingtian?"

"Let him break through!" Old Devil Han said calmly.

"Even if he reaches the Dao Integration Realm, I have plenty of ways to kill him with ease."

"But during this time, you need to keep a low profile and avoid causing trouble."

You Yun stopped speaking, took a deep look at the strange flowers in the flowerbed, then soared into the air and disappeared.

Meanwhile, in the miscellaneous Spiritual Field, Zhao Gao was lying on the edge of the field.

Gazing at the full moon in the sky, he murmured, "I didn't expect that old devil to still be alive, and even hide in the Mystic Moon Sect."

"I let you get away last time, but I can't let you get away this time!"

"However, judging from what this old devil said, this Ling Yi seems to actually have some issues. Interesting! Finally, I'm not Bored anymore!"
