Translator: 549690339

Second Senior Brother Ling Xiao had incredibly thick skin.

He was caught red-handed doing something shady by the Junior Brother, yet he didn’t show any shame.

He even playfully winked and asked Li Fan if he wanted to give it a try.

Before Li Fan could respond, the Elder Brother’s sword swooped down instantly.

Radiating an intimidating killing intent, it scared off a bunch of mischievous kittens.

Second Senior Brother chuckled awkwardly, retrieved his pen, and slipped out of the Cave Mansion in search of new playful gadgets. “Junior Brother, you mustn’t follow in your Second Senior Brother’s footsteps.”

“Your Essence Object should be chosen with seriousness.”

Si Xing advised earnestly.

Li Fan nodded repeatedly in agreement.

There were plenty more amusing little incidents like these.

Generally speaking, the atmosphere within the Corporeal Dao School was harmonious and friendly.

In such an ambience, Li Fan was harnessing the innately hidden potential within him, strengthening his weak body.

Whilst concurrently cultivating the “Self- Sublimating Technique”.

In the sixth year since Li Fan’s incarnation into the Mimicry World.

From the distant horizon came a succession of urgent, spine-chilling bell chimes.

Hearing the bells, Li Fan felt his blood surge and an uncontrollable dread in his heart.

All his brothers, busy with their activities, were startled awake too.

“That bell sound… is it the Zhua Immortal Bell?!”

The arriving brothers all wore expressions of horror.

“I remember the last time the Zhua Immortal Bell rang was when the Immortal Sects’ farmed Longevity Species collectively fled, wasn’t it?”

“Yes. Back then, the Ten Great Immortal Sects issued a fugitive warrant; anyone who captured any of the runaway Longevity Species was rewarded with the ‘Pearl of a Hundred Lifespans’, adding decades to their lifespan.”

“The temptation of living for another century; few cultivators could resist that. Those times were bloody with cultivators killing each other to hunt down the fleeing Longevity Species.”

“I wonder what big event has happened in the Immortal Cultivation World this time.”

The brothers deliberated and exchanged views.

Li Fan listened silently on the side, seizing the moment when their chat breaks and with a curious look, he asked, “What are Longevity Species? What are ‘Pearls of a Hundred Lifespans’?”.

For once, the brothers didn’t avoid the question like they usually did.

Second Senior Brother Ling Xiao sighed, his eyes filled with admiration. “Junior

Brother, you have to understand, Heaven has never been fair.”

“For ordinary humans, living for a hundred years is considered longevity.”

“Even for a cultivator, unless they reach the Immortal Realm, a lifespan of a thousand years is the limit.”

Ling Xiao paused, his tone heavy. “There are some creatures in this world that are born with extremely long lifespans. Even ordinary members of their tribe, without powerful cultivation, can easily live for a thousand or two thousand years.”

“To us humans with short lifespans, this is incredibly unfair!”

“Longevity Species…” Li Fan contemplated.

Prior to his reincarnation, he had read about similar settings to the Longevity Species in many fantasy stories.

But in the real Immortal Cultivation World, he hadn’t received any information related to the Longevity Species.

Not to mention seeing an actual Longevity Species.

“Senior Brothers, what do these Longevity Species look like? Are they similar to the mythical creatures in legends?” Li Fan looked at Ling Xiao with innocent eyes and asked loudly.

Ling Xiao ruffled Little Junior Brother’s hair, explaining: “Hmm, that varies a lot. Some are shaped like Exotic Beasts, but they can converse in human language.”

“Some are plant spirits.”

“Some resemble humans and members of their community are tremendously beautiful..

“Ah yes, I once authored a book called ‘Romantic Tales’, where the protagonists were Longevity Species from distant continents. Let me see if I still have some copies left…”

As Ling Xiao veered off-topic, his face lit up with excitement.

Before he could finish, the Elder Brother appeared behind him, looking stern.

Second Senior Brother had to sheepishly stop his contentious talk and get back on course.

“Erm, where was I? Ah, yes, Longevity Species…”

“There is a special type of Longevity Species that look almost identical to ordinary humans. Or rather, they are humans.”

“Their only unique aspect is their incredibly long lifespan that most people can’t achieve.”

“These people hide amongst the crowd, living their lives carefully. Every so often, they change their identities and start life anew to avoid detection.” Li Fan immediately asked, “Why do they fear detection? Is it related to the

Decennial Pearl?”

around a hundred years and then you’d be in your twilight years. Yet others remain youthful when they are hundreds or even thousands of years old. Wouldn’t you feel that’s unfair? Wouldn’t that anger you?”

Li Fan nodded vigorously, “That’s infuriating! It’s so unfair!”

“Exactly, it’s hard for ordinary people to bear this disparity. As mentioned earlier, there are some Longevity Species that don’t have powerful cultivation.”

“Humph, tidings of woe come to those who treasure priceless relics. How could cultivators at the God Transformation and Unity-Path stage, but with no hope of longevity, not covet these Longevity Species?”

Ling Xiao lowered his voice: “Those major Immortal Sects possess a secret technique called the ‘Reincarnation of Elements’ that can extract lifespans from living beings and use it.”

“And they usually extract the purest lifespan from the Longevity Species.”

“Thousands of mortals, after years of extraction, can only yield a few Longevity

Fruits, adding a hundred years to one’s lifespan.”

“But the lifespan of a single Longevity Species can produce dozens or hundreds of ‘Longevity Pearls’.”

Ling Xiao’s eyes also revealed a touch of greed: “The higher the cultivation of the Longevity Species, the higher the quality of the ‘Longevity Pearl’ that could be refined.”

“I was fortunate enough to take part in hunting down a Longevity Species years ago and received a ‘Pearl of a Hundred Lifespans’ as a share. After consuming it, I felt like I was on cloud nine, as if I had returned to my youth.”

“That feeling… ”

As Ling Xiao smacked his lips, he said, reminiscing.”

“The ‘Pearl of a Hundred Lifespans’ was like this, I can’t even begin to imagine what the legendary ‘Millennial Pearl’ or even the ‘Decennial Pearl’ would taste like.”

At this moment, the always silent Third Senior Brother suddenly spoke, “Ling

Xiao, given your cultivation, I’m afraid if you do happen to consume a

Millennial Pearl, you would just end up being drained of it.”

Ling Xiao looked at Lian Chang disapprovingly, “Ling Xiao? Is that really how you address me? Lian Chang, you’re forgetting your manners more and more.”

Third Brother folded his arms, looking at Ling Xiao with intense interest, “So, you want to spar with me?”

Ling Xiao didn’t back down, “Seems like I haven’t shown my hand for so long that you’ve misunderstood.”

“Today, I will thoroughly show you the authority of a Senior Brother!” With that, the two of them got into a brawl.

And the Elder Brother, wearing a smile, simply observed from the side. This scene was so warm and harmonious.

However, not long after, a storm of war would completely shatter this tranquility..
