Nine Lives!
"Bai Shi, let's go to Eastward-Looking City."
Lin Ye instructed Bai Shi to pack his things, as they were preparing to leave Eastern Crane City.
"Ah, Master, why are we suddenly going to Eastward-Looking City?" Bai Shi had heard of Eastward-Looking City. It was a real megacity, much larger than Eastern Crane City. It was one of the four major cities that were very close to Eastern Mountain City, and it was very far away from Eastern Crane City.
"Go see one of your senior female classmates."
Lin Ye did not reveal Nalan Xi's identity, but planned to tell him after arriving in Eastward-Looking City.
"See Senior Sister?" Bai Shi immediately started packing his things. Actually, there wasn't much to pack; he only took a few useful items, put them in his storage ring, and then set off with his master.
Not long after.
Eastward-Looking City.
Compared to Eastern Crane City, Eastward-Looking City is several times larger, with more magnificent city walls and far more powerful individuals, making it far superior to Eastern Crane City.
The soldiers guarding the city here were all at least at the True Qi Realm. As Bai Shi looked around, he immediately realized how powerful Eastward-Looking City was.
"Master, where is Senior Sister?" Bai Shi asked curiously.
Lin Ye explained, "Your senior sister is a princess of the Eastern Mountain Imperial Dynasty named Nalan Xi. She currently serves as an Eastern Divine Guard in Eastward-Looking City. I have already informed her, and she will be here soon."
"What, the princess?!"
Bai Shi's pupils contracted. That was an incredibly important person! For such a powerful figure to become one of his master's disciples, how powerful must his master be?
At that moment, his master's image became even more majestic in his mind.
Not long after, Nalan Xi arrived.
"Master."
Nalan Xi bowed respectfully.
"Disciple, is there a suitable place?"
"Come to my residence!"
Nalan Xi took Lin Ye and Bai Shi to her residence in Eastward-Looking City, which she had purchased herself, though the location was a little out of the way.
On the road.
Nalan Xi looked curiously at the little old man following Lin Ye, "Master, is this a servant you took in?"
"Servant? No, this is your junior brother," Lin Ye introduced.
"What, Junior Brother?" Nalan Xi was dumbfounded. All of Master's other disciples were young, but this old man was already so old, and his cultivation was only at the True Qi Realm. Master actually accepted such a piece of trash?
"Your junior brother is no ordinary person. His current state is only due to his Cultivation Method; he will recover later." Lin Ye simply explained the situation without mentioning the Hundred-Lifetime Physique.
The secret of the Hundred-Lifetime Physique is something only he and Bai Shi should know; it's better for others not to know.
"Oh, I see!"
Nalan Xi understood, but she was very curious about what kind of Cultivation Method could make someone so old. Even if the Cultivation Method was very powerful, she would not cultivate it. If she became that old, even if it was only for a short period of time, she would not be able to bear it.
"Hello, junior brother." Nalan Xi greeted him first.
Hello, senior sister!
Bai Shi quickly and respectfully replied.
In the past, he would never have been qualified to associate with such an important figure. Even the city lord of Eastern Crane City had to treat Nalan Xi with utmost respect. But now Nalan Xi was being so courteous to him.
He was immediately filled with apprehension.
"Don't be shy, this is your senior sister. You'll still need her in the future!" Lin Ye patted Bai Shi on the shoulder and said.
"Yes, Master."
Bai Shi quickly relaxed and soon arrived at Nalan Xi's residence.
After entering the mansion, Lin Ye let Bai Shi go to cultivate on his own, while he stayed alone with Nalan Xi.
"Xiao Xi, I will pass on to you a Great Divine Ability Technique. Take it and practice it."
Lin Ye took out the revised Great Divine Ability Technique and handed it to Nalan Xi.
"Great Divine Ability Technique!" Nalan Xi eagerly took it, glanced at it, and was immediately shocked. This Great Divine Ability Technique was too heaven-defying. She was certain that even the Eastern Mountain Imperial Dynasty could not produce such a heaven-defying Great Divine Ability Technique!
Nine-Tailed Life Substitution Technique!
This Great Divine Ability Technique cannot increase strength, but it can save lives in critical moments. If one is attacked with certain death, one can activate the Nine-Tailed Life Substitution Technique in advance, sacrificing one tail to gain new life and restore one's condition to its peak.
In other words, once the Nine-Tailed Life Substitution Technique is used, Nalan Xi's Nine-Tailed Fox Bloodline will become Eight-Tailed Fox Bloodline. If it is used twice, it will become Seven-Tailed Fox Bloodline. If it is used nine times, he will lose his Nine-Tailed Fox Bloodline.
The cost is high, but this thing can save your life; it's like having nine lives.
Of course, to have nine lives, one must cultivate the Nine-Tailed Life Substitution Technique to perfection; the beginner level of the Nine-Tailed Life Substitution Technique only grants one life.
Thank you, Master.
Nalan Xi was moved. If the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan knew about this heaven-defying Great Divine Ability Technique, they would definitely do anything to seize it. But her master was willing to give it up and pass it on to her, as if it were just an ordinary martial art.
"Practice diligently and strive to master this Great Divine Ability Technique as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
Nalan Xi responded.
Afterwards, Nalan Xi went to study this Great Divine Ability Technique.
"The Nine-Tailed Life Substitution Technique, which sacrifices one of its tails to help oneself die in place of another, is a Great Divine Ability Technique relies on sacrifice. It's very suitable for Nalan Xi. If she masters it, I can also receive ten times the feedback and thus master it. Moreover, I also have the Nine-Tailed Nine-Tailed Fox Bloodline flowing back into my body. Anyway, I don't care about this kind of bloodline. I already have two bodies, and with these nine lives, it would be too difficult for me to be killed."
Lin Ye then recalled the terrifying techniques recorded in the system shop, all of which possessed incredible life-saving abilities. Some of these techniques even surpassed the Great Divine Ability Technique. If he were to exchange for all of them and have his disciples cultivate them, how exaggerated would his life-saving abilities be!
By then, no one in the Profound Heaven Realm will be able to kill him!
After that, Lin Ye stayed in Eastward-Looking City and also bought a mansion near Nalan Xi's residence. It wouldn't work if he stayed in Nalan Xi's mansion forever, and Bai Shi couldn't live in Nalan Xi's mansion forever either, as the possibility of being noticed would be too high.
Staying nearby means there won't be any problem.
Time passed day by day, and Lin Ye's disciples broke through to the Martial Saint Realm after another. Now, apart from Sun Hou and Bai Shi, all the other disciples have reached the Martial Saint Realm. The feedback brought by these disciples' breakthroughs has enabled Lin Ye's cultivation to break through to the Third Layer of the Golden Body Realm, and he is not far from the Fourth Layer of the Golden Body Realm.
His second body did not receive any feedback on his cultivation level, but by taking medicine and consuming Spirit Stone every day, the power of his inner Core Qi surged rapidly, and his cultivation level quickly broke through to the Third Layer of the Golden Body Realm.
Yin Puppet Sect.
Han Bing's cultivation has finally broken through to the Fifth Layer of the Martial Saint Realm. Moreover, he has repeatedly obtained materials from the Yin Puppet Sect for the Eighth-Tier Demon King and has been diligently cultivating the Extreme Dao Corpse Armor Technique.
This day.
Han Bing finally mastered the Extreme Dao Corpse Armor Technique, Great Divine Ability Technique, to the entry level.
Boom!!!!
Black scales appeared on his body, instantly increasing his overall defense many times over.
"What a terrifyingly Great Divine Ability Technique! With this Great Divine Ability Technique, my strength has skyrocketed. Even if I were surrounded by multiple Golden Core True Person, I wouldn't be afraid at all."
Han Bing murmured.
Black-Yellow Sect.
Lin Ye's first physical body received a notification from the system.
"Ding! Congratulations, host! Disciple Han Bing has mastered the Extreme Dao Corpse Armor Technique to the basics. You have received tenfold feedback and have successfully cultivated the Extreme Dao Corpse Armor Technique to the minor completion stage!"
Upon hearing this notification, Lin Ye smiled. Having acquired another Great Divine Ability Technique at the minor completion stage, his strength had once again increased.
