Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

Chapter 415: Chapter 172: “Seeing All the Flowers of Chang An in One Day!_2
 

“This is your first time descending the mountain, you must remember,”

“Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul Cultivation Pills are gifts from the heavens, not only are their effects better than those made by Alchemy Cultivators, they also contain no impurities and have no side effects, they don’t destabilize the foundation, and are extremely valuable.”

“Before you descend the mountain, you also need to make your way through the ‘Nascent Soul Combat Power Rankings’ secret realm. I don’t ask for any results, just that you come out alive.”

This young girl, clad in a white dress,

stood beneath Moonlight Mountain, emanating an unblemished purity, her bare feet on the rugged rocks, her long hair fluttering in the night breeze, stirring the hearts of surrounding disciples.

The silver thread tied around her wrist added a masterstroke to her appearance.

Without wearing a veil,

her face was boldly exposed, with a hint of mature charm, her body curvy, radiating a woman’s allure at every moment, her slightly closed legs hinted that she was still a virgin.

Generally speaking, only women who have lost their virginity possess such mature charm.

Yet, retaining her virginity while exuding the allure of a mature woman, such a woman is truly exceptional, known in legends as a Natural Charm Seed.

With every move, without using any Illusion Techniques, she made the breathing of nearby disciples grow slightly rapid.

“Understood.”

The girl, barefoot on the craggy rocks, clasped her hands behind her back, tiptoed, and looked longingly down the mountain, her eyes filled with anticipation as she said, “I will definitely be very careful, and with these two big fellows by my side, no one can defeat me.”

She turned her head to look at the two quiet demon beasts squatting beside her,

Two giant wolves.

An extremely rare and scarce breed of Wolf Demon, known as the ‘Lunar Night Demon Wolf,’ part of the wolf demon family, which becomes stronger under moonlight and can use moonlight to conceal itself for assassinations, capable of both frontal combat and stealth attacks.

Thirty thousand years ago,

Lunar Night Demon Wolves were not so rare, but over time, for unknown reasons, they became close to extinct. The two Lunar Night Demon Wolves she possessed were personally sought out by a sect elder from the furthest southern reaches of the nine provinces, from a place called ‘Extinct Forest,’ taking several years to procure.

As her Lifebound Spirit Beasts.

A female and a male, perfectly in sync when fighting, immensely fierce in strength.

Although she was only at the first level of Nascent Soul Cultivation, these two Lunar Night Demon Wolves were already at the sixth level of Nascent Soul Cultivation and could combine their spells to fight against seventh-level Nascent Souls!

Being at the first level of Nascent Soul and able to fight against seventh-level Nascent Souls, such a feat was a top accomplishment wherever one went, undoubtedly making her a Heavenly Pride among Heavenly Prides. However, it was a pity that the timing wasn’t right—if the Nascent Soul Combat Power Rankings had descended seven or eight years later, she might have reached the sixth or seventh level of Nascent Soul by then, capable of fighting even peak Nascent Souls!

She might even have been the leader!

Because these two Lunar Night Demon Wolves were a female and a male, both of a near-extinct rare breed, the sect had always taken great care of these two demon beasts, hoping that they would breed more little wolf demons, thereby binding them as Lifebound Spirit Beasts for other disciples, substantially strengthening the foundation and power of the ‘Myriad Beast Sect.’

Everything about these two Lunar Night Demon Wolves was excellent.

The only drawback was… their lineage wasn’t very pure.

They were of pure Lunar Night Demon Wolf lineage, but not of the best lineage among them. It was said that the best lineage among the Lunar Night Wolves was known as the ‘Wolf King’ lineage, which not only cultivated faster and was stronger,

but also had a natural authority over other Lunar Night Wolves.

No Lunar Night Wolf could muster the courage to fight against one with ‘Wolf King’ lineage, even if the opponent was just a Foundation Establishment Lunar Night Demon Wolf; the others would have to prostrate themselves in submission.

Such was the deepest imprint in the bones of a Lunar Night Demon Wolf!

“The path of cultivation is not without confidence, but also not overly so; you must grasp this balance yourself.”

The old man, with a face full of wrinkles, trembled as he looked towards the girl holding a seemingly underage fox in her arms, his voice complex as he spoke, “And this spirit beast in your arms, the Myriad Beast Sect has studied it for a long time and still doesn’t know what kind of spirit beast it is, nor its origin.”

“In the end, the sect classified this little fox as a mongrel, belonging to the useless spirit beasts, but you paying more attention to this little fox, I think it’s not ordinary.”

“Is that so?”

The woman lifted the little fox in her hands, fiddled with its tail, and with her head tilted in confusion said, “I can’t see any special talents; all I see is that this little fox is especially afraid of death, very timid indeed.”

“Being afraid of death is just right.”

After a fit of coughing, the old man, his face as white as a ghost with streaks of black air trembling as he walked on the mountain, looked up at the moon. He knew his days were numbered, that without achieving immortality, without seeking eternal life, everyone must face this phase.

Heaven’s decree, as such.

The old man looked dazed, suddenly feeling some regret, wishing he had gambled it all a hundred years ago; maybe if he had succeeded that time, he might not have been stuck in this bottleneck.

Throughout life, one is always on the path of making choices.

No matter the choice made,

one will always subconsciously glorify the path not taken in the future. What if a different choice had been made back then, might life be better now?
