“That’s right, the best swimmer often drowns; staying away from conflicts and focusing on one’s own well-being is the path to longevity.”

“Indeed, indeed.”

Surrounded by four Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Ilan Yi also stood up and looked at the young cultivator who was slowly descending from mid-air, murmuring to himself.

“Wu Gang?”

“Li Qiushi’s disciple?”

During his time at the Star River Garden, Han Yi had attended the unveiling ceremony of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s Heavenly Mechanism Stele. He had memorized all the names on the Master List, but he only knew most of them without recognizing their faces.

The top name on the Master List was Li Qiushui from Yujing Mountain. According to records, Li Qiushui had killed three Nascent Soul Cultivators as a Golden Core Cultivator on Yuan Lao Mountain.

This record was terrifying. It’s rare for cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage to be able to fight against higher level cultivators. Killing three cultivators one realm higher than oneself in one incident is almost impossible.

For example, Han Yi was confident that he could have a good chance of killing a Golden Core Early Stage cultivator now. But if faced with three Gold Core cultivators at the same time, he couldn’t definitely say he would win, only that he wouldn’t lose.

This was already against the heavens, and Han Yi couldn’t even dare to think about a Golden Core Peak cultivator killing three Nascent Soul Cultivators at once.

“Fellow Daoist, are you planning to go to Yuan Lao Mountain?”

One of the four discussing Foundation Establishment Cultivators, noticing Han Yi several meters away and spotting that he was around their age, suddenly asked with a gesture of respect.

Ilan Yi turned around and returned the gesture.

“I am Lu Li. 1 happen to have some urgent matters, and 1 am on my way back from Tian Nan Immortal City to Jinyun Immortal City. 1 am not aware of the situation in Yuan Lao Mountain.”

“I just heard the fellow Daoists mentioning the fragments of the Immortal Palace in Yuan Lao Mountain, may 1 know what that is about?”

The cultivator who asked Flan Yi, similarly old-looking and around the same age as Han Yi, spoke. For Foundation Establishment Cultivators, living for two hundred years without any accidents or major injuries is not a problem.

This cultivator seemed to be at least one hundred and fifty years old. The other three cultivators had no female, and they were all of similar age as well.

“I see.”

“The matter of Yuan Lao Mountain is not a secret; the whole world knows about it.”

“The four of us are loose cultivators from Luo Xia Mountain in Daqian Taiyi District. We met fellow Daoist here today, which can be considered fate. Why don’t you come over and chat?”

After considering for a moment, Han Yi walked over and sat down with them.

By coincidence, not long ago, Han Yi had encountered a cultivator from Luo Xia Mountain in the Taiyi District – Dou Yu, who had been using his name to deceive female cultivators for Spirit Stones.

“I am He Xuan, and these three fellow Daoists are Lu Yi, Yang Heda, and Meng Yangyu.”

Ilan Yi nodded in greeting to each of the trio who returned the gesture with friendly expressions.

lie Xuan continued, “Yuan Lao Mountain is located in the eastern part of Qianzhou. Not far to the north of it is the Chi Xiao Sword Sect, and to the east of Yuan Lao Mountain, across the Evil Mountain Range, is the Great Yong Immortal Country.”

“Yuan Lao Mountain has a unique position. Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a Holy Land here called Yuan Lao Holy Land. However, even the most prosperous Holy Land can eventually decline and perish.”

“After the fall of Yuan Lao Holy Land, there were no anomalies. However, a thousand years ago, fragments of the palace from the original Yuan Lao Holy Land began to appear on Yuan Lao Mountain from time to time.”

“At the beginning, Duke An of Daqian and the Spirit Transformation Expert of the Stars Sea in Yujing Mountain went to investigate. But the found fragments of the Holy Land contained treasures that were of no help to the Spirit Transformation Experts.”

“Later, rumors emerged that a certain Half-immortal had pulled the palaces from the original Yuan Lao Holy Land directly into a spatial rift. That rift crumbled after tens of thousands of years, gradually releasing the trapped palaces.”

“However, these details are secondary to us. The main point is that those fragments from that Holy Land contain treasures preserved due to the near-standstill of time and space in the rift, and are not eroded by the years.”

“The four of us initially went to Tian Nan Immortal City for a mission. Once that was completed, we planned to visit Yuan Lao Mountain. If fellow Daoist Lu doesn’t mind, you could join us on the trip.”

After listening to He Xuan’s words, Han Yi learned more about Yuan Lao Mountain.

lie knew about Yuan Lao Holy Land, but he hadn’t heard about the fragments of the Immortal Palace appearing on Yuan Lao Mountain. Without hesitation, Ilan Yi refused the invitation.

“Sorry, but 1 really can’t go to Yuan Lao Mountain as 1 have urgent matters to attend to.”

lie Xuan didn’t press further.

“Well, actually, although new fragments of the palaces appear on Yuan Lao Mountain every ten years or so, they are occupied by powerful cultivators. Don’t laugh, but our main purpose for going there this time is just to test our luck.” 𝐟re𝚎𝘄𝚎𝐛𝚗o𝚟el.c𝐨𝚖

“We four are not fond of fighting. In the path of cultivation, we should maintain our health for longevity.”

Ilan Yi didn’t quite agree with He Xuan’s idea.

Always focusing on maintaining health and not improving one’s fighting capabilities – how could one hope for longevity in the cruel Cultivation World?

In Han Yi’s view, longevity is the goal, and fighting ability is the means to protect it, both equally important.

In his past life, there was a saying: “neighbors hoard food while 1 hoard weapons, the neighbors are my granary.” This was also applicable in the Cultivation World.

However, he could see that these four cultivators seemed to have no ill intentions. Their way of thinking was like a breath of fresh air in the Cultivation World. Especially when he thought about the previous incidents of ambushes and compared them with these four cultivators’ philosophies, Flan Yi felt even more that they were worlds apart..
