The villain is right beside me

Even without the help of magic weapons, Mu Qing was still able to step on the air and reach a distance of 100 meters in an instant. This speed was unmatched by even the cultivators of the same realm, not to mention the cultivators of the Wheel Sea Realm.

Mu Qing stepped on the ground and walked in the inner circle as if it were flat ground. In a few breaths, he had traveled a distance of a thousand meters.

"If I can cultivate to the Wheel Sea Realm, a thousand miles in one step is not a dream. If I can reach the Infant Transformation Realm, I can shrink the earth into an inch and reach the fastest speed in the world!"

"Yeah, there's someone in front."

Mu Qing saw from afar a figure sitting cross-legged among the drifting continental fragments. He was wearing bright yellow clothes and seemed to be in his nineties, looking very old.

"Mu Qing! Retreat quickly!" Lao Wang said in horror.

Mu Qing stepped back subconsciously, but at the moment he stepped back, the old man in yellow opened his eyes. He seemed not to move, but Mu Qing felt that he was approaching him rapidly!

Mu Qing was horrified to find that he was out of touch with his surroundings, teleportation didn't work, and he couldn't even lift his legs.

No! It's not me who's approaching him, but he's approaching me?!

The old man looked at him with a pair of cloudy eyes, and Mu Qing realized that the old man's hair and beard were too long, completely covering his face. It seemed that they had not been taken care of for a long, long time, as if he had been sitting in this void for thousands of years.

"Heaven and man are one. At such a young age, he has such enlightenment. It's a pity that the quality of his immortal roots is too poor."

Mu Qing didn't dare to speak. He found that he couldn't even move into the world inside his body. Not even a thought could arise in his mind. He felt that the spiritual power in his body was suppressed by an inexplicable force and could not function.

"What a huge platform! If it weren't for the spiritual power realm, I would have thought it was the wheel sea realm. Let me ask you, how did you get in here?"

Mu Qing shivered and said, "The airspace battlefield opens once every fifty years, and the sect sent me in."

"Oh, the opening time has come, why are you running to the inner circle?" The old man looked at him with a haggard face and puzzled eyes.

"Junior...wants to come in and look for opportunities."

"If you were in the Lunhai realm, you could still protect yourself by entering the inner circle to explore. You are a building platform realm person, you are too ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth." The old man said in a lecturing tone, thinking of something: "Which sect are you from? What time is it outside now?"

Mu Qing said: "Junior, a disciple of Qingniuzhou Piaomiao Sect."

"Piao Miao Sect!" The old man seemed a little surprised and asked, "When did you join Piao Miao Sect? How many years have you been in the sect? How many people in the Infant Transformation Stage are there in Piao Miao Sect now?"

Mu Qing was surprised that the old man relaxed a little when he heard the tone of his own sect. Could it be?

"I have been in the sect for five years. My master is Yunxi, who is a master in the Lunhai realm. I am not aware of the ancestors in the sect who are in the Infant Transformation realm."

"Yunxi, which one is it? You, a useless immortal root with seven attributes, can build a platform in five years. You can't make up a lie." The old man looked suspicious.

Mu Qing used the Qingxiao Sword Controlling Technique and the skills from various meridians. This was already irrefutable evidence.

The old man put away his doubts and looked at Mu Qing with deep emotion: "The sect is really getting worse with each generation."

Mu Qing felt no more pressure, so he boldly asked, "May I ask your name, Senior?"

The old man's eyes suddenly gleamed with surprise, and he said, "Young man, follow me closely, and I will show you what true unity of man and nature means!"

The next moment, he took a step forward slowly. This step caused the surrounding space to change rapidly, causing the cracks in the void to continue to lengthen but not break, and even the surrounding strong winds collapsed and scattered!

Mu Qing was extremely shocked.

At this moment, he seemed to understand what the true change of times meant!

In desperation, Mu Qing pulled his sleeve, and then the starry sky shifted and the world turned upside down. He did not feel any discomfort, but just felt that he and the old man were in an independent space, moving slowly.

Is it the surrounding starry sky that is moving, or is it him that is moving?

Mu Qing felt that he couldn't find any reference and couldn't tell the difference for a moment.

Finally, the old man's footsteps landed.

When Mu Qing looked around, he found that the surrounding environment had completely changed, as if he had come to another strange place.

"This... could it be the ability to shrink the distance into an inch?" Mu Qing was extremely shocked. The cultivation level of this senior was truly unfathomable.

He thought of the crazy beggar. Mu Qing had never had such contact with the crazy beggar, so he couldn't make a comparison, but at this moment he understood what a truly strong person was like.

The old man sat down again and said, "Young man, do you understand?"

Mu Qing looked at the old man, extremely happy, and bowed respectfully: "Disciple now understands, thank you for your guidance, senior."

Mu Qing noticed at this time that the movement just now had lifted up his clothes, seemingly revealing his skinny and dark body.

It's like the oil has run out and the lamp has gone out.

"Senior, could it be that you..."

"Let's go."

Mu Qing didn't understand why he gave him advice and then suddenly became so cruel.

“Hurry up and leave!” the old man shouted, and waved his hand lightly. Mu Qing felt a gust of wind coming and blew him tens of thousands of miles away.

His time had already come to an end, and he didn't have much time left. Even using a little bit of spiritual power would shorten his life.

Mu Qing felt a warm feeling in his heart and he seemed to hear his voice in his ears.

"I am Lu Changsheng, from Piaomiao Sect. Remember not to break the inheritance."

It was blown so far away that Mu Qing turned around countless times before it stopped. He didn't know where it flew to.

"Senior..." Mu Qing was sure that he should be a supreme elder or even the ancestor of Piaomiao Sect.

This cultivation, this intention.

Disciples, remember this.

Lao Wang sighed, "He should be in the late stage of infant transformation, only half a step away from the body-slashing realm. However, considering his lifespan, it is really difficult to pass this level. If he can't break through, he will really disappear into thin air."

"He was able to pass on his understanding of shrinking the earth into an inch to you. I'm afraid that next, he will face his final test of life and death in this void."

Cultivation is so cruel. If you break through, you can extend your life by a thousand years. If you fail, you will be completely reduced to ashes and die like a star.

Mu Qing bowed deeply towards the distance, and at that moment, a seed sprouted in his heart. This seed was called gratitude.

……

After Si Minghai and Qu Shuheng separated, they came to a continent to comprehend the secret technique.

"The two secret techniques seem to be unrelated, but why do I feel that there is some similarity between them?" Si Minghai had such a strange idea in his mind. Although it was just a guess, he had been able to survive until now for so many years relying on his keen intuition.

"At that time, when I was talking to Mu Qing about the sect's inheritance, he asked me a question: So, he suspected that the inheritance was in you. After that, he mentioned the sect's secrets. He wanted to learn the secrets so that he could comprehend them after returning to the sect. Why did he need us to teach him now?"

"So...she suspected...so!" Si Minghai seemed to have suddenly realized something and couldn't believe his guess: "Why did he say 'so'? Why was it in such a normal tone? Normal people shouldn't say, "Could it be, she suspected..."

"This firm tone, as if he knows where the inheritance is? No way!"

Si Minghai said in disbelief: "Did he get the sect's inheritance?"

"No, how is it possible? Master told me that since the founding of our Piao Miao Sect, no one has seen the inheritance. This inheritance no longer exists..."

"Wait, assuming that Piao Miao Sect is really one of the ancient sects, and is also a giant standing in the Eastern Region, after so many years of changes, the founder of Piao Miao Sect moved the sect to Yunlan Country. In other words, even if there is no such thing after the founder, there must have been one before!"

Si Minghai has been in the sect for a long time and has heard of the founding master of Piao Miao Sect. A long time ago, Piao Miao Sect suffered a great disaster and almost lost its incense. Later, the founding master appeared out of nowhere and rebuilt Piao Miao Sect. After that, he disappeared from the world and the sect was handed over to other people to manage.

According to rumors, the founder of the sect was a senior who pursued immortality and lived an unusually long life. It is said that he is still alive.

“If the matter of inheritance is true, then the rumors about the founding master are also true!” Si Minghai felt that it was too far-fetched. How could the founding master who lived a thousand years ago still be alive today?

The maximum lifespan of a cultivator in the Infant Transformation Realm is 900 years. If one wants to break through that thousand-year barrier, it is impossible to do so by relying on some longevity pills, unless one can break through to the Body-Slashing Realm!

The life span of a mortal is no more than a hundred years. Although those who have attained the state of awakening can strengthen their bodies, they can only live a few decades longer than ordinary people.

Only the Platform Building Stage can bring about the first transformation in a person's body and soul and break through the century-long barrier.

The Wheel Sea Realm and the Infant Transformation Realm can only double the lifespan. One can live for 400 years in the Wheel Sea Realm, and the upper limit is 500 years; one can live for 800 years in the Infant Transformation Realm, and the upper limit is 900 years.

A cultivator goes against the flow of time and seizes the fortune of heaven and earth.

Why every sect loves to pay attention to Qilinzi and is willing to share resources with them is because they all know that only these Qilinzi have the possibility of living longer and can ensure the rise and fall of the sect.

This is also why Mu Qing was so shocked when he learned that the crazy beggar had lived for thousands of years.

Anyone who can live that long is already at the top of the continent.

"Even if Mu Qing gets the inheritance, what does it have to do with me? He is my junior brother and a disciple of Piao Miao Sect. As long as the sect does not let him down and he can survive, Piao Miao Sect will continue to exist." Si Minghai thought, and what he said was exactly the immortal spirit that has been passed down since the founding of Piao Miao Sect.

In the memory of the years called history, as long as there are people who still remember the sect, the sect will not disappear.

"Besides, I would like to see which one is more powerful, the true inheritance of Piaomiao Sect or my dark inheritance." At this moment, a deep red flashed in Si Minghai's eyes.

In the inner circle, the old man in yellow cut his beard and hair, and changed into cleaner clothes, as if he was packing himself up and getting ready to go.

After cutting his hair, he revealed a skinny face like a skeleton, as if symbolizing his decline.

“It’s not easy to break through here.” The old man took slow steps, as if crossing the universe. The sky changed, and everything around him seemed to move faster with his pace.

"You can't go back, otherwise, they will definitely find out."

The old man seemed to have traveled across tens of thousands of light years, and finally came to a strange place.

A vast ochre-colored continent.

The old man looked up at the sky, and the look in his eyes seemed to reach the edge of the sky.

"If you can't get out, just stay here."

No one knew that an old man would break through on a barren continent. Maybe it would take decades or even hundreds of years. When he came out, the world would have changed dramatically.

Of course, these are things for later.

Mu Qing walked and stopped, gradually understanding the method the old man taught him.

In the eyes of outsiders, his figure seemed to disappear and then reappear on the other side of the continent, which was almost the same as teleportation.

As he was walking, he ran into an acquaintance.

Ouyang Chuer.
