Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 540: Miraculous Hands Restore Life

An hour later.

The jade door of the secret chamber slowly opened, and Shen Xuan and Wen Ruyu emerged side by side.

At this moment, Wen Ruyu was a completely different person compared to when he went in earlier.

At that time, his aura was weak, his complexion pale, and his breathing unstable.

Now, Wen Ruyu’s complexion had regained its rosiness, his eyes were lively again, and his aura was somewhat stable.

Clearly, he had not yet removed all the Primordial Magnetic Evil Light, but the pain that clung to his bones like a jinx had eased considerably, bringing a long-lost sense of relief.

There was an uncontrollable hint of joy between Wen Ruyu’s brows.

Wang Zuhua, who had been anxiously waiting outside, immediately approached.

"Senior Brother Wen, how is it going?"

Wen Ruyu smiled faintly: "Fellow Daoist Shen is exceptionally skilled, bringing the dead back to life; it won’t be long before the Primordial Magnetic Evil Light within me is completely eradicated."

His words expressed his gratitude and admiration for Shen Xuan.

Upon hearing this, Wang Zuhua rejoiced and quickly bowed deeply to Shen Xuan: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shen, for treating Senior Brother Wen!"

Shen Xuan lightly waved his hand: "We all belong to the seven sects of Song Country, Fellow Daoist Wang, such thanks are unnecessary!"

"Besides, your sect’s leader brought generous gifts, it would be impolite for me to refuse."

Then, Shen Xuan looked at Wen Ruyu, pondered, and said: "Fellow Daoist Wen, the evil light in your body has been entrenched over the years, intertwined with your Inner Core and Divine Soul; it must be dealt with gradually and not rushed."

"I suggest that you temporarily reside on Starlight Island and visit my residence every two months so I can heal you, using Profound Ice Spiritual Power to gradually dissolve the remaining Primordial Magnetic Evil Light."

Wen Ruyu nodded: "Fellow Daoist Shen’s words are indeed correct. I will temporarily reside here. However, can Fellow Daoist Shen tell me, how long will it take to completely cure?"

Shen Xuan thought for a moment.

"I estimate that about three years should be enough to cure it."

"Three years..."

Wen Ruyu repeated, not with disappointment, but rather full of joy.

This Primordial Magnetic Evil Light had tormented him for ten years, and even the elders of his sect were at a loss.

For Shen Xuan to cure it within just three years was no less than a great piece of news.

The lifespan of a True Pill True Master is long and can reach five hundred years.

A mere three years is insignificant.

"I understand. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shen. I will reside here for three years."

Shen Xuan nodded: "On Starlight Island, there is a branch vein of Tier Three Lower Grade. However, the cave mansion is only Tier Two Upper Grade, temporarily a bit inadequate for Fellow Daoist Wen."

"No need to say that! Fellow Daoist Shen, you are too kind!"

On Starlight Island, the main vein is Tier Three Upper Grade, used by Shen Xuan himself and expanded into the Cold Ice Cave.

The two branch veins are Tier Three Lower Grade.

One branch vein was given to Zhuang Xueqin for opening a cultivation venue.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators on Starlight Island, such as Ding Yijin, Tie Wenda, Lin Zhongyue, Chu Duanlang, all reside on this branch vein.

The other branch vein, Shen Xuan developed multiple cave mansions of Tier Two Upper Grade, initially intended for rent.

Afterward, Shen Xuan ordered Zhuang Xueqin to personally lead Wen Ruyu and Wang Zuhua to reside in the branch vein cave mansion.

...

Starlight Island.

Late at night.

At the summit of the main peak.

Shen Xuan stood alone at the top of the peaks.

He gazed down at the vast ocean below, his eyes deep and calm.

"Primordial Magnetic Evil Light, nothing more!"

The purifying effect of the Nine-colored Sacred Lotus exceeded his expectations.

Though Wen Ruyu was severely injured.

Shen Xuan, exerting with all his might, combined Origin Spiritual Power from the Divine Hidden Sea Technique with the Nine-colored Sacred Lotus, needs only three months to completely eradicate the Primordial Magnetic Evil Light from Wen Ruyu’s body.

However, it wasn’t necessary.

Being too easy would make the favor seem less significant.

Shen Xuan deliberately delayed for three years.

In addition to emphasizing difficulty and avoiding suspicion, enhancing the weight of the favor.

There’s another reason.

It is to avoid trouble and ensure self-preservation.

The brief negotiation between Yan Country and Song Country ultimately collapsed.

Predictably, veteran True Pill True Masters are beginning to enter the fray.

These are indeed the real power figures within the sects, too critical to be lost.

However, once a war starts, it cannot simply be controlled at will.

The sect war between Yan and Song Countries must lead to the death of veteran True Pill True Masters.

Behind them are sect families with extensive influences.

These sect wars will not stop until one side concedes and begs for mercy.

Treating Wen Ruyu is an excellent excuse.

Not to mention the Cyan Cloud Sect, even the other six sects of Song Country can hardly question it.

Add Shen Xuan’s status as a Tier Three Pill Master.

He can legitimately hide on Starlight Island, cultivate with peace of mind.

Unless the sect forces of Song Country are completely defeated and truly indefensible.

At that time, even as a newly promoted Golden Core True Master, he cannot change the course of the war.

His thoughts should not be about how to go to the battlefield and turn the tide.

But rather to prepare for, find opportunities to depart Song Country swiftly, securing his life.

"Each treatment needs three years, followed by at least a year of rest."

"Zhuo Wuyan used Primordial Magnetic Evil Light, wounding four people. Besides Wen Ruyu, there are two from the Profound Celestial Sect, and one from the Divine Sword Sect."

"In this way, I can peacefully avoid war for twenty years."

Shen Xuan can also take the opportunity to refine the Tier Three Divine Dragon Descendant Demon Core’s Essence Blood in his possession, further advancing his Body Refining Technique.

He cannot let the sect war interfere with his cultivation plans, obstructing his path toward the Nascent Soul Great Dao.

The so-called "Three-year Cure" is actually his way of securing focused time for cultivation."

...

A month later, visitors arrived again at Starlight Island.

Wan Meng, the Demon Lord of the Hehuan Sect, along with the Dark Spirit Demon Lord of the Netherworld Sect, came to Starlight Island.

Zhuang Xueqin welcomed them and personally guided them to the Cold Ice Cave.

The array was opened, and a familiar voice sounded.

"Wan Meng, long time no see, what brings you here today? Rest in the guest room for a while, have some Spirit Tea, I will be out once I conclude my cultivation."

Shangguan Yan’Er came out to host.

The two exchanged a glance, each understanding the other’s intentions.

"You must be Sister Wan Meng, my husband frequently mentions you! Indeed, you possess extraordinary grace!"

"I am Shangguan Yan’Er, in reverence of Sister Wan Meng."

Shangguan Yan’Er curtsied respectfully.

The Wan Meng Demon Lord casually reciprocated the gesture, ignoring Shangguan Yan’Er’s provocation.

She was a Demon Cultivator and also a guest.

In Shen Xuan’s presence, she would not quarrel with Shangguan Yan’Er.

Otherwise, she would lose her dignity.

Shangguan Yan’Er didn’t say much, her eyes slightly dimmed.

Shangguan Yan’Er offered the Cold Leaf Spirit Tea, saluted, and withdrew.

Soon, Shen Xuan came out to entertain.

He was quite enthusiastic toward Wan Meng Demon Lord.

Having heard about the Hidden Spirit Demon Lord coming for a transaction.

He reviewed the Demon Flood Dragon Demon Core he brought, slightly damaged, but still retained nine-tenths.

Shen Xuan smiled faintly and directly took out five pieces of Demon Soldiers, allowing him to pick.

The Hidden Spirit Demon Lord compared repeatedly and selected a Yin Soul Banner.

"Fellow Daoist Hidden Spirit rarely visits Starlight Island, as host Shen offers a banquet to wash away the dust for you."

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Wen Ruyu from the Golden Sun Sect is also temporarily staying on the island, so let’s invite him as company."

The Hidden Spirit Demon Lord was shocked.

Netherworld Sect, although ranked among the six great Demon Sects in Liang Country, was in the last three, ranked at the bottom.

The Hidden Spirit Demon Lord, his own strength, wasn’t particularly formidable.

If not for Wan Meng Demon Lord’s company, he would definitely not come to Starlight Island alone.

Regardless of whether Song and Liang Countries declare war.

Spirit Cultivators and Demon Cultivators always belong to different factions.

"Hidden Spirit thanks Island Master Shen!"

That evening, Shen Xuan invited Wen Ruyu and Zhuang Xueqin to a banquet for the Hidden Spirit Demon Lord.

The next day, when Hidden Spirit Demon Lord left, he gifted him a Core Formation Demon.

These ordinary quality Core Formation Demons, Shen Xuan’s Storage Pouch contained seven or eight pieces.

"A small courtesy, not a form of respect. Fellow Daoist Hidden Spirit, if you have time, feel free to visit Starlight Island anytime."

For a moment, the Hidden Spirit Demon Lord was somewhat moved.

Knowing that Shen Xuan was using him as a showpiece, still felt pleased.

After all, an Ice Technique Golden Core True Master being so warm and polite could spread his Hidden Spirit Demon Lord’s fame.

Wan Meng Demon Lord found this scene amusing in her heart.

Shen Xuan’s performance somewhat earned her admiration.

After seeing off the Hidden Spirit Demon Lord, Wan Meng Demon Lord naturally linked arms with Shen Xuan.

"Shen Lang, look, Wan Meng has gone to great lengths for you. How will you reward Wan Meng?"

Shen Xuan gently withdrew his arm, speaking in a low voice.

"We’ll talk about it later. Tonight, I’ll come to you."

Wan Meng Demon Lord’s pretty face blushed slightly.

In her heart, there was a faint anticipation.

...

Late night.

Starlight Island, branch cave mansion.

Clouds clear and rain ceases, warmth emanates from jade.

On the brocade bed, Wan Meng lazily curled up, her fair skin glistening with fine beads of sweat and an intoxicating blush.

Her eyes were dreamy, her breath slightly rapid.

Clearly, the recent extreme joy left her exhausted.

And this while Shen Xuan restrained his strength.

The two still had important matters to discuss.

Wan Meng Demon Lord’s voice carried a coquettish tone: "Villain, after forming the Golden Core, your body has become even more robust! Wan Meng couldn’t bear it!"

"Your little concubine, can she satisfy you?"

Speaking of this, there was a hint of sourness in Wan Meng Demon Lord’s tone.

Shen Xuan leaned on the bed, his eyes half-closed, his aura harmoniously retracted.

"At my age, why fuss over little girls! Let’s talk business."

Wan Meng slightly propped herself up, her hair cascading like a waterfall, a flash of expectation in her eyes.

"Shen Lang, I mentioned the Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon before, Wan Meng has already investigated."

She took out a Geography Jade Scroll.

"In the borders of Liang Country, there is a Ten Thousand Demon Valley. Deep within the valley, there exists an Extremely Yin Cold Pool. The Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon is nestled within the Extremely Yin Cold Pool."

"Wan Meng can confirm, this Demon Flood Dragon has an ice attribute, capable of spewing extremely cold ice evil, tremendously powerful, having devoured several Demon Lords."

Shen Xuan asked: "Are there any special surroundings?"

Wan Meng Demon Lord thought: "Except for the dense demonic qi and rare human traces, no special features found."

"Is there a Demon Realm space or Demon Realm portal nearby?"

"None!"

Wan Meng Demon Lord paused, then added: "Ten Thousand Demon Valley itself is a danger zone in Liang Country, many demon beasts and a harsh environment, ordinary cultivators dare not venture deep."

"That Extremely Yin Cold Pool, over a thousand zhang deep. Not a Water Technique Demon Lord, dare not enter."

"Even a Water Technique Demon Lord, well-known and named, has fallen two of them!"

Shen Xuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, his heart swiftly calculating.

Tier Three Divine Dragon descendants are rare.

This Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon, being ice attribute, has a connection with him.

The Extremely Yin Cold Pool, over a thousand zhang deep.

To others, it’s a major hassle.

To him, after transforming into a Flood Dragon, just a minor issue.

Shen Xuan’s concern is still the extra-dimensional Demon God.

The demon infant old ancestor in Liang Country, like the Nascent Soul True Monarch of Song Country, rarely leave their cave mansion.

Generally, they won’t take action easily.

Moreover, Song and Liang Countries have not declared war.

As long as Shen Xuan doesn’t provoke Liang Country’s Demon Lords.

Theoretically, Liang Country’s demon infant old ancestors won’t make a move against him.

Wan Meng Demon Lord observed Shen Xuan’s expression.

Seeing him somewhat interested, she smiled charmingly.

"Shen Lang, an opportunity not to be missed. If others get ahead of you, finding such an Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon again won’t be easy!"

Shen Xuan pondered and said: "How did those two Water Technique Demon Lords perish?"

"Ah, those two Water Technique Demon Lords?"

"There were four of them, using hundreds of Demon Yans as bait, lured the Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon out of the Extremely Yin Cold Pool. Later, the four besieged the Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon."

"The Ice Evil Demon Flood Dragon, outnumbered, dived into the Extremely Yin Cold Pool. Those two, oblivious, chased it into the Extremely Yin Cold Pool, then... "

"Then they were gone!"
