"What do you want the for?"

Cui Zhen frowned slightly.

This lamp is of extremely high grade, close to a , and it is the most valuable treasure he owns.

"Naturally... cultivation."

Xie Xuanyi paused and said, "I am cultivating the , borrowing this should be reasonable, right?"

"...Really?"

Cui Zhen was somewhat skeptical.

Xie Xuanyi borrowing the to cultivate the Life Dao?

Why does it seem a bit unbelievable?

But Xie Xuanyi did not leave Cui Zhen much time to hesitate or ponder.

"No problem, it doesn’t matter if you don’t lend it."

Seeing Cui Zhen hesitate, Xie Xuanyi was about to leave, leaving Cui Zhen anxious.

"Wait, wait—"

The handsome Great Demon said plaintively: "Did I say I wouldn’t lend it?"

Xie Xuanyi halted his steps, calmly watching the person in front of him. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"The can be borrowed by you."

Cui Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "But this thing is very important to me... if you use it to delve into the , you must cherish it well..."

Having said that.

He gestured, summoning Ye Ling back with a Divine Thought.

"Take down the ."

Cui Zhen pressed his hands on his knees, gazing into Xie Xuanyi’s eyes, speaking without turning his head.

"Honored One?"

The woman’s face showed surprise.

She was incredibly shocked by this.

This is the most important treasure of the Great Venerable! What delusion has the Great Venerable fallen into, giving the to a Human Race Cultivator?

Ye Ling gritted her teeth, somewhat reluctant.

Seeing this, Xie Xuanyi merely chuckled without insisting.

"Take it down."

However, Cui Zhen was adamant in giving another order, his voice noticeably harsher.

Even if Ye Ling was unwilling, she had to carry out this order. The woman Great Venerable carefully took down the and handed it over, her eyes full of grievance... For so many years, she had been meticulously safeguarding this precious lamp for Cui Zhen.

Only she, being Cui Zhen’s most trusted person, could handle such a supreme treasure!

Xie Xuanyi, just a fleeting acquaintance...

This guy, why!

"Don’t worry, I will return what I borrow, and I will take good care of this item."

Xie Xuanyi took the treasure and placed it in the Sword Qi Cave Heaven.

He looked at Cui Zhen and said seriously, "During this half year, as you hide in the Snow Mountain, I will ensure your peace and safety. After one hundred and eighty days, I will return the Longevity Lamp to you."

"Alright."

Cui Zhen smiled broadly.

Xie Xuanyi said no more, left the fire barrier, and departed by Sword Control.

Ye Ling stood still, taking a long time to recover.

"Honored One..."

She said plaintively, "You gave away the just to exchange it for a mere promise from that Human Race Sword Cultivator named Xie?"

Ye Ling naturally understood.

After the Sun Erosion battle, both were in a dangerous situation.

But regardless, she was a Great Venerable with Yang God Realm strength.

The Heavenly Phoenix Palace is indeed powerful.

But she willingly sacrifices herself for the Honored One, and with Yang God Realm strength, hiding for half a year shouldn’t be difficult.

"A mere promise is enough."

Cui Zhen shook his head.

After sending away the , his Heart Lake became much more peaceful.

The Heart Lake Sensing of a top Great Cultivator is often extremely accurate.

He believed he made the right choice.

"Xie Xuanyi... is truly formidable..."

Ye Ling gritted her teeth, having to admit that this young Sword Cultivator named Xie now possessed the strength to contend for the title of the strongest in the world.

Slaying the Sun Eater Venerable.

Xie Xuanyi alone exerted at least sixty percent of the effort.

"Do you know what he wants this lamp for?"

Cui Zhen, looking towards the direction where Xie Xuanyi left, suddenly spoke, asking this question.

"Longevity Lamp..."

Ye Ling fell into contemplation, seriously saying, "This treasure can preserve soul thoughts. As long as you expend life’s span, you can induce soul growth. Is Xie Xuanyi borrowing this treasure to repair a certain soul thought?"

Back when Cui Zhen died in battle.

Ye Ling used the to nurture a strand of Cui Zhen’s soul thought.

Relying on that strand of soul thought.

Cui Zhen successfully completed reincarnation.

"When I roamed the Southern Country, there was a great upheaval in the South Border."

Cui Zhen squinted his eyes and slowly said, "I heard... the Three Great Sects massacred many cultivators of Great Chu."

"I have heard about this too."

Ye Ling realized.

Though the Demon Country’s information is isolated, such a significant event shakes boundaries.

Xie Xuanyi reemerged in worldly society, slaughtering the Three Great Sects overnight, beheading all pseudo-saints in the South Border!

Speaking of Realm.

Characters like White Ghost Daoist Mo are naturally far from being able to compare with Ye Ling.

But...

The Three Great Sects of the South Border actually possess complete traditions. If these Evil Cultivators obtain a complete , they can quickly achieve Yang God Realm advancement!

It can be said, if not for Xie Xuanyi’s massacre.

The South Border would have at least three Yang God stationed!

"Your meaning is..."

Ye Ling muttered, "Xie Xuanyi is borrowing the to resurrect old friends who died during the South Border war?"

"I’m not sure what exactly he wants to do."

Cui Zhen said lightly: "But in this world... birth, aging, sickness, and death are iron laws, reviving the dead isn’t so easy. A alone is far from sufficient."

He could live a second life.

The Longevity Lamp was just an introduction.

Before the ordeal, Cui Zhen was prepared.

To achieve soul reincarnation, one needs at least the , the Undying Spring, and the Reincarnation Skill...

Thinking of this.

Cui Zhen’s expression became more solemn.

These three items, each one, is exceedingly rare and hard to find. But Xie Xuanyi seems to have gathered two of them?

...

...

"Brother Chu, please stay."
