With only 8 years to live at the start, I'm going all in.

Chapter 187 Early Success in Evergreen Technique



Chapter 187 Early Success in Evergreen Technique

Late at night, inside the house.

Ding Yi sat at the desk, picked up the porcelain bottle containing the Celestial Phenomenon Pill, examined it for a moment, and hesitated slightly.

Ding Yi remembered that he had tested it before, and if he were to strengthen the Evergreen Skill to perfection, it would take him more than 340 years of lifespan.

With his lifespan limited to about 100 years, Ding Yi decided to first try to advance the Evergreen Technique to a minor level.

With this in mind, Ding Yi picked up his brush and wrote the two words "Evergreen Technique can be completed to a minor level without side effects" on the porcelain bottle, and then quietly waited for the prompt to appear.

A few breaths later, the notification arrived as expected.

[Currently, the required lifespan for enhancement is 97 years and 93 days. Enhance now?]

Wow, good grief, they went all in this hand?

Ding Yi pondered for a moment, then chose yes.

Although this enhancement had almost brought him to the end of his lifespan, Ding Yi felt that now was the time to use the Evergreen Skill, and he should be grateful that his lifespan could support him until he achieved minor success in the Evergreen Skill.

After Ding Yi selected "yes," the porcelain bottle trembled slightly. Then, Ding Yi poured the pill out of the bottle, glanced at it briefly, and then put it into his mouth.

The next moment, a long-lost fragrance spread from Ding Yi's mouth. Having already experienced this, Ding Yi immediately sat cross-legged on the spot and waited quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, Ding Yi finally emerged from the state of divine illumination and regained his senses, then slowly opened his eyes.

[Your Longevity Technique has made a breakthrough; your lifespan has increased by 30 years!]

kindness?

Ding Yi glanced at the pop-up notification and was immediately taken aback.

Xiao Cheng's Evergreen Technique actually granted him a full thirty years of lifespan, which is equivalent to the lifespan of three Qingyunzi!

Prior to this, Ding Yi had noticed that the continuous practice of the Evergreen Technique had brought him a slight increase in lifespan, but so far there had been no related notifications. Now it seems that it was probably because his Evergreen Technique level was too low.

In this light, the perfect Evergreen Technique might bring him a considerable increase in lifespan, but his lifespan is currently insufficient. Otherwise, Ding Yi would really like to try the perfect Evergreen Technique and see what kind of changes it would produce.

At this moment, Ding Yi felt the Evergreen True Qi in his body again and found that the true qi had condensed into a gel-like substance and was slowly flowing between his meridians.

He slowly extended his palm, and a ball of emerald green light appeared on it, slowly rotating. The shape of the ball of light was constantly changing, as if it were alive.

After reaching a minor level of mastery, Ding Yi discovered that his Evergreen True Qi could finally leave his body, just like the essence.

Looking at the pulsating ball of light in front of him, Ding Yi pondered for a moment, then casually waved his hand, completely concealing the ball of light, and slowly stood up.

Now that the Evergreen Technique has been partially mastered, it can help Liu Xun and Sun Qiao'er improve their cultivation levels.

His grand strategy was finally about to begin.

February 1st, a deserted village.

Ding Yi rode his horse to the place as usual and found the mark that Liu Xun had left outside the house.

Pushing open the wooden door, Ding Yi heard that long-lost shout.

"My lord, I've missed you so much!"

Ding Yi looked at Liu Xun, smiled and nodded, then asked:

"How's the situation over there?"

"Master, don't worry about that. Everything is under my control."

"After your last letter, I sent people to the border of the state to investigate the whereabouts of Baiyun Temple, and some discoveries have been made so far."

Liu Xun said with a smile.

"Okay, hold your position and wait for my signal."

As Ding Yi spoke, he took out a small black gourd from his waist and tossed it to Liu Xun.

Liu Xun took the gourd and immediately said with a smile:

"Master, I will fill this gourd with evil energy as soon as possible."

Ding Yi shook his head upon hearing this and said:

"Try absorbing the evil energy inside this gourd."

Liu Xun was taken aback upon hearing this, and then tentatively tried to absorb some of his internal energy. He was immediately shocked to find that an energy completely different from Yin Yang Sha had surged into his body.

"Master, what kind of malevolent energy is this? Why can I absorb it?!"

Liu Xun immediately noticed the abnormality of this energy.

He can actually cultivate using this thing that isn't Yin Yang Sha; this is simply unheard of!

After all, the evil energy of each palace is different, and each family can only use its own evil energy to cultivate. If one forcibly absorbs the evil energy of another palace to cultivate, the evil energy will clash, resulting in the death of the body exploding.

But this malevolent energy was clearly not a Yin-Yang malevolent energy, yet Liu Xun could still absorb it, which overturned his understanding.

"Never mind that. You can use the evil energy in this gourd to cultivate. After you're done, fill it with Yin-Yang evil energy and bring it back to me."

Ding Yi looked at Liu Xun's reaction, nodded calmly, and then spoke.

Ding Yi filled the gourd with malevolent energy in just three days, which was more than ten times faster than Liu Xun's speed in pouring Yin-Yang evil energy into it.

This gourd's contents are enough for Liu Xun to cultivate for a month. When he comes again next time, I can give him a new gourd.

By repeating this process, and given the fact that worshipping gods has no bottlenecks, Liu Xun's cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds!

"Thank you for your grace, Master. This servant wishes you boundless happiness and longevity!"

Looking at Ding Yi, Liu Xun's eyes immediately welled up with tears. He knelt down with a thud and kowtowed to Ding Yi.

Ding Yi stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Liu Xun who was banging his head on the ground. He then stretched out his palm and waved his hand, and Liu Xun was lifted up by an invisible force, standing back in the room in astonishment.

"Master! You've broken through to the Yuanqiao stage!"

Liu Xun asked in surprise again.

It's no wonder Liu Xun was surprised. Just a year ago, Ding Yi was only a novice martial artist. In just one year, he had become a top expert in the Yuanqiao Realm.

Even Liu Xun had never heard of such a person with extraordinary talent.

Perhaps there are such geniuses in the isolated Central Plains, but in Liu Xun's eyes, no genius can compare to his own master.

"Remember, the matter at Baiyun Temple must be carried out in secret. Once any of the Black Armor Guards are exposed, make them commit suicide!"

Ding Yi looked at Liu Xun and, while speaking, walked towards the small box over there.

Taking gloves from his pocket and putting them on, Ding Yi slowly opened the box. Upon seeing the three bright red statues of gods inside, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

It must be said that the lifespan invested in Liu Xun was absolutely worthwhile.

In retrospect, even knowing the risk of failing to control the situation, Ding Yi would still choose to strengthen control if he were to return to that situation.

"By the way, Sun Qiao'er is already one of ours."

Ding Yi packed the wooden box and carried it on his back, then suddenly spoke.

"Ah? Master, to be honest, this servant saw it a long time ago."

Liu Xun was taken aback by Ding Yi's sudden remark and could only manage a wry smile.

"Oh?"

Ding Yi became interested.

"That Special Envoy Sun is proud and arrogant, a well-known cold beauty. If she hadn't been won over by the master, why would she allow the master to get so close?"

Liu Xun then said.

"I see. It seems I should be more careful in front of outsiders in the future."

Ding Yi pondered for a moment, then walked towards the door.

"See you on the first day of next month."

"My lord, take care on your journey and stay healthy over there!"

Liu Xun was shouting from inside the house.
