Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 111: Observing the Stars

"Mu Yuchan, is it really necessary to gather everyone here for the sake of your daughter? Isn't it a bit excessive?"

A chubby-faced girl in a red dress stretched her short and thick legs onto the table, yawning as she spoke.

"If it delays my entry into the Xuan Yang Secret Realm, don't blame me for being impolite!"

This was a square stone room with only a long white jade table in the middle, with dozens of high-backed stone seats on either side of the table.

At this moment, several high-ranking members of the Bu Tian Pavilion were sitting on these seats, with the weakest among them being at the late Gold Core stage. They varied in appearance and included men, women, and people of all ages.

Seated at the head of the table was a white-haired girl in white clothes, her eyes slightly closed and her expression cold.

Standing behind her chair was a tall woman with unfamiliar blue eyes.

To the right of the white-haired girl was the red-dressed girl who was speaking, and to her left was an elegant and noble-looking woman in palace attire.

At this moment, the elegant woman's face was as cold as frost, ignoring the threatening words of the red-dressed girl. She formed a hand seal and shot a blue light that merged into the void.

In the next moment, a light screen appeared above everyone's heads, displaying all the scenes that happened after Mu Yunwan brought Xu Mu into the secret room.

The elegant woman was none other than Mu Yuchan, the second elder of the Bu Tian Pavilion.

She somehow managed to trace back to the scenes that happened in the secret room.

"What's so interesting about this!"

The red-dressed girl glanced at it and became somewhat bored. Resting her chubby hand on the back of her head, she looked like she was about to fall asleep.

It wasn't until the white-haired girl raised her eyelids slightly and glanced at her that she restrained herself and reluctantly looked back at the light screen. However, her mouth remained idle, constantly commenting on the scenes.

"Look at how you've spoiled your daughter! Your methods are really crude and uncivilized. When I was at the Qi Refining stage, I was ten times better than her! To think she even used a restraining talisman, it's really embarrassing for us... Huh?"

As she spoke, the red-dressed girl suddenly stopped, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, showing a hint of confusion. After a moment, her eyes widened, and she stood directly on the stone table, completely absorbed in the scenes on the light screen.

The Gold Core elders present saw the red-dressed girl's actions and couldn't help but feel a headache, but no one dared to reprimand her.

The red-dressed girl's name was Lian Hongshuang, the third elder of the Bu Tian Pavilion, a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Her father was the current head of the Bu Tian Pavilion.

Lian Hongshuang had always been unruly since she was young, and except for the head of the pavilion, Qiu Jixing, who could make her somewhat fearful, no one else could control her.

Even if they were unhappy, they could only endure it. They didn't want to provoke her.

"Could it be that he used..."

Lian Hongshuang suddenly turned her head and looked at Mu Yuchan.

"That's right! It's the Yin-Yang Unity secret technique! Otherwise, it would be impossible to break Wan'er's secret technique!"

Mu Yuchan straightforwardly said, her eyes filled with a cold chill.

Under normal circumstances, Mu Yunwan had the protection of a formation, so even at the Gold Core stage, it would be impossible to harm her.

It was precisely because she didn't pay much attention to this point that Mu Yunwan had been dead for a long time before she discovered something was wrong, missing the best time to investigate.

"Who is he?"

Lian Hongshuang sat back on her stone chair, crossed her legs, and stared at Mu Yuchan, asking.

"If I knew, I would have taken action long ago. Why would I inform all of you?"

Mu Yuchan glanced at Lian Hongshuang, her tone indifferent.

Lian Hongshuang pouted and turned her head to look at the white-clad girl, Qiu Jixing, the head of the Bu Tian Pavilion.

"Sister Qiu! The Yin-Yang Unity secret technique should only be known by the three of us, and even if an ordinary person obtains it, they wouldn't be able to cultivate it. Even our talented senior martial uncles would be powerless!"

Qiu Jixing opened her eyes, her old eyes showing no ripples as she calmly spoke.

"What do you want to say?"

"He couldn't be the reincarnation of our senior martial uncle, right? Back then, our senior martial uncle entered the Xuan Yang Secret Realm with the Great Shifting Order in search of the Reincarnation Beyond the Horizon Flower. It's been so many years, if he found it, he should have reincarnated by now!"

"Haha!"

Mu Yuchan couldn't help but sneer.

"If he were our senior martial uncle, he would have come back to find us long ago. How could he hide? Besides, I have examined his body before, and the cultivation technique he practices is completely different from ours in the Bu Tian Pavilion!"

Lian Hongshuang gave Mu Yuchan a disdainful look and said,

"The Yin-Yang Unity secret technique is the nemesis of all cultivation techniques that rely on absorbing spiritual energy. Our senior martial uncle is also a cautious person. For safety reasons, he wouldn't acknowledge us and would avoid any unnecessary attention. What's so strange about that!"

"If he really is our senior martial uncle, he wouldn't have harmed Wan'er. Wan'er is..."

"But what? Hmph! We cultivators only seek immortality. Killing a few blood relatives is nothing! It's just a few more cycles of reincarnation!" Lian Hongshuang sneered.

"Just like how you killed the former sect master, right?" Mu Yuchan mocked.

"You wretch! You're asking for death!"

Lian Hongshuang suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with a fierce light. A tremendous aura surged out, forming a red aura on her body, like burning flames.

"It seems like you've forgotten your lesson again!"

Mu Yuchan slightly curled her fingers, and a ball of ice-blue flame appeared in her palm, causing the temperature in the stone chamber to drop sharply.

"That's enough!"

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Qiu Jixing calmly spoke up.

An invisible force projected from the void, directly pressing Lian Hongshuang back into her seat.

The Gold Core elders below all sweated profusely, feeling immense pressure in the face of three Nascent Soul stage powerhouses.

"Now that you've cultivated the Yin-Yang Unity Secret Technique, we must find this person no matter what his identity is! I will use the Star Observation Technique to roughly locate him later. Hongshuang, you will lead ten Gold Core elders to capture him!"

"Why me?"

Lian Hongshuang crossed her arms and grumbled unhappily, "I was still waiting to enter the Xuan Yang Secret Realm to retrieve the Yang True Water!"

"This is an order! I'm not discussing it with you!" Qiu Jixing coldly glanced at her.

Lian Hongshuang could only pout and grumble in dissatisfaction.

"I understand."

"Yuchan, you will lead the team to enter the Xuan Yang Secret Realm this time!"

"Understood!"

Mu Yuchan's gaze flickered for a moment, and she nodded.

"You two stay behind and help me activate the Star Observation Disk. Everyone else can leave!" Qiu Jixing stood up and said.

"Yes!"

The Gold Core elders all stood up, saluted, and then left.

Only Qiu Jixing, Mu Yuchan, Lian Hongshuang, and the woman with blue eyes remained in the room.

Qiu Jixing left her seat and walked towards a wall. The wall automatically opened a passage, and she stepped into it, followed by the other three hurrying to catch up.

Under Qiu Jixing's lead, the four of them walked for about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, and finally appeared on a towering open platform.

The wind howled around them, and when they looked up, they saw the galaxy filling the sky.

A black stone compass, nearly ten zhang tall, stood silently in the center of the platform, as if it had existed for countless years.

The compass was covered in mysterious pictographic characters, exuding an ancient and desolate aura.

Looking at the compass, Mu Yuchan's eyes revealed a rare trace of eagerness.

Although this black stone compass looked unremarkable, it was actually the famous Heaven-Piercing Spiritual Treasure in the entire Cangming Sea, and it was the foundation that allowed the Butian Pavilion to stand in the Cangming Sea.

Only the successive sect masters knew the methods to activate and control it.

And it was precisely because of the existence of the Star Observation Disk that Qiu Jixing could easily suppress them.

Qiu Jixing tiptoed and flew up, landing lightly on the compass. Her ten fingers intertwined, forming one seal after another, which were imprinted into the compass.

Buzz!

Soon, dense golden runes appeared on the surface of the compass, emitting a faint light.

Mu Yuchan and Lian Hongshuang hurriedly approached and infused their spiritual power into it, helping Qiu Jixing alleviate the pressure.

While the Heaven-Piercing Spiritual Treasure was incredibly powerful, it also consumed a tremendous amount of energy. It would be very difficult for Qiu Jixing to operate it alone.

"Yuchan!"

Qiu Jixing called out, and Mu Yuchan immediately imprinted the information she had gathered about Xu Mu into the compass using her spiritual imprint.

The runes on it began to rotate rapidly, finally condensing into a ball of light that flew into Qiu Jixing's brow.

After a moment, Qiu Jixing stopped the rotation of the compass and stepped on the void, descending from above.

"The compass shows that he is in the open sea!"
