Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger

Chapter 167: The Path of Invincibility! You Can Gallop Freely Across the Entire Southern Region!

“Seven hundred years of longevity.” Meng Changqing slightly sensed the vitality in his body and a smile appeared on his lips.

Such a vast amount of heaven and earth longevity was somewhat unexpected.

But thinking it through, it made sense.

“Adding the longevity I already have, it’s about a thousand years.” Meng Changqing’s eyes flickered.

A thousand years of life.

That’s about the span of ten generations of a mortal family.

So for a major power, once a Life and Death Realm expert appears, it could remain glorious for at least five to six hundred years.

The increase in longevity for the Life and Death Realm only happens when breaking through from Divine Attainment to Life and Death Realm, after that, it’s just the enhancement of life and death power.

Like the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm, the power of life and death far surpassed the first level.

When they fight, unless the first level has an extremely deep martial foundation, they cannot sustain a long battle against the ninth level.

Over time, their vitality would be drained.

Thinking this, Meng Changqing raised his right hand.

In his palm, black and white energy appeared, intertwining and forming a Taiji-like symbol.

This was the power of life and death.

Life energy absorbed others’ vitality to replenish oneself, while death energy affects the ecology within others, worsening injuries, causing wear and tear, and in severe cases, affecting longevity.

Such an abnormal power was indeed incomparable to the lower realms.

“All power originates from the human body itself, could it be that humans were once innate spirits?” Meng Changqing couldn’t help but wonder.

From the beginning with the Great Meridian Secret, followed by the Great Aperture Secret, Danhai Secret, Sea of Consciousness Secret, and now the Longevity Secret.

These all come from the human body.

Not external.

After pondering for a while, Meng Changqing gave up, because overthinking at this stage was useless.

“By my estimation, there are only about two months left until the Southern Genius Battle. Just the journey itself takes a lot of time, so I must set off soon.” Meng Changqing slowly stood up.

At the same time, he picked up Crimson Sky beside him.

—

Arriving at the Sect Master’s hall, he saw Xi Yingqing again.

Xi Yingqing was not surprised by Meng Changqing’s breakthrough.

Everything was as expected.

“How is your progress with the Undying Truth Heavenly King Art?” Xi Yingqing casually asked.

He didn’t expect Meng Changqing to have made much progress, considering most of his time was spent on enhancing his cultivation.

The improvement in his techniques was probably limited.

“It is perfected,” Meng Changqing answered honestly.

Only by practicing the Undying Truth Heavenly King Art can one discover its strength. The state of unity with heaven and man brought by the first volume was something countless warriors dream of.

In this state, whether understanding martial skills or enhancing cultivation, it was incredibly fast.

It’s just a pity he couldn’t sense the existence of truth.

So he must quickly practice the second volume.

“?” Xi Yingqing was visibly stunned, then a look of shock appeared on his usually calm face.

“Is that true?” Xi Yingqing asked after recovering.

“Yes.” Meng Changqing nodded.

At the same time, he operated the technique and entered the state of unity with heaven and man. His figure instantly blurred, merging with heaven and earth.

Seeing this, Xi Yingqing instinctively clenched his hands.

A look of shock flashed in his eyes.

He really did perfect it.

How long has it been?

“It seems you perfected it before reaching the Life and Death Realm.” Xi Yingqing took a deep breath.

He remembered that he didn’t perfect it until the third level of the Life and Death Realm.

He had spent a long time practicing it before that.

And now, for Meng Changqing, it only took a few months.

Indeed, he was the child of fortune.

Coming back to his senses, a satisfied smile appeared on Xi Yingqing’s face.

It seemed he must greatly elevate his expectations for Meng Changqing, or his nearly two hundred years of mental state might become unstable.

“It was just luck,” Meng Changqing casually said.

Xi Yingqing laughed and shook his head.

Perhaps it was luck.

But that doesn’t matter.

“In that case, I will pass on the second volume to you. The difficulty of practicing this volume is much higher than the first, but I have already prepared the resources for you.” Xi Yingqing took out another storage ring.

Clearly, he had long prepared everything for Meng Changqing’s cultivation.

Woosh~

A sea of flowers surged, countless petals flying, forming a jade slip.

Meng Changqing skillfully took it and pressed it to his forehead.

In an instant, countless golden characters surged into his sea of consciousness.

It was the “Undying Truth Heavenly King Art” (Second Volume)!

Compared to the first volume, the second volume was naturally much more profound.

The main content of this volume was to build the Eye of Truth.

The first volume only relied on one’s spiritual will to sense, a relatively crude method.

But the second volume refined this.

It tempered the spiritual will, transforming it, then visualized ancient objects to construct the Eye of Truth in the sea of consciousness!

Using the Eye of Truth, it became easier to approach the truth.

It sounded simple, but in reality, it’s very difficult.

First, one’s spiritual cultivation must be very high, otherwise, they had no qualification to visualize ancient objects.

Secondly, how rare were ancient objects?

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call them exceedingly rare.

However, Meng Changqing believed his spiritual cultivation was sufficient, and as for ancient objects, the Sect Master had already prepared them for him.

“Thank you, Senior Brother.” Meng Changqing took the storage ring.

“Everything you need is inside, and it’s best to find a secluded place for your cultivation.”

Xi Yingqing said with a smile, “I hope next time you come back, you have perfected it.”

“I will do my best.” Meng Changqing nodded.

“The Southern Genius Battle is a grand event held once every ten years, and it carries significant meaning.

“If it were before, with only Divine Attainment Realm, I might not have given it much thought. But now that you have stepped into the Life and Death Realm, I want you to defeat all opponents and take first place!

“Forge an invincible form!”

Saying this, a difficult-to-describe aura emerged from Xi Yingqing, filled with dominance, confidence, and invincibility!

It felt as if no one in the world could stop him!

“The path of martial arts is inherently one of contention, only by constantly defeating opponents, especially strong ones, can you gather an unyielding heart and invincible belief. This will be greatly beneficial for your future path!” Xi Yingqing’s white hair fluttered wildly, and his eyes seemed to flicker with divine light.

From him, Meng Changqing seemed to truly see that imposing aura.

He also saw many figures.

All of whom fell under the Sect Master’s fists, battling all the way to the peak, until…no one remained in his eyes!

“Rest assured and boldly contend, have no fear of other powers!

“I am behind you, and the sect is behind you.

“In the entire Southern region, you can gallop freely!”

Xi Yingqing stood with his hands behind his back.

His words were full of certainty.

He seemed to want Meng Changqing to shed his psychological burden, completely relax, and walk the path of invincibility!

“Understood.” Meng Changqing took a deep breath.

He slowly closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, his eyes were like torches.
