Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

“To see Miss safe and sound, I have no regrets left!”

At this moment, Shu Xiaoxiao slowly appeared at Jiang Yuan’s side.

“Who is this…?”

Li Yao looked confused.

“I am my Young Master’s maid!” said Shu Xiaoxiao indifferently.

Then she added, “Young Master, someone is coming!”

Jiang Yuan glanced back, several streaks of light were rising from Heavenly Origin City in the distance.

“Let’s talk somewhere else!”

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, leading a few people into the ground below.

They fled towards the distance.

…

A moment later.

“Great leader, traces of four great cultivators in Dharma Realm still remain here!”

The man in silver armor nodded, “It seems that all members of the Chu Family have perished here!”

“The leader is right! Shall we pursue and kill the murderers of the Chu Family?”

The man in silver armor cast a glance at him, “Pursue? Pursue what! Are you asking to die? With the three or four layers of power you few have in the Dharma Realm, along with my eighth layer of power, can you ensure that you can take on the murderer?”

“We… we have our battle armor on!” the man said meekly.

The man in silver armor said, “What life are you risking for such a small salary! It’s better to complete our duties and return to the Sacred Land soon.”

“Then… How to reply to Brother Chu?”

“Reply as appropriate, he is just a disciple now, let him discuss it with me when he becomes the candidate for Holy Son!”

The man in silver armor waved his hand, turned around, and disappeared into Heavenly Origin City as a streak of light.

…

About the time it takes to brew a pot of tea later.

Jiang Yuan led a few people to a valley.

Qin Yun was crying softly, leaning on Shu Xiaoxiao’s body.

At this moment, Li Yao had completely exhausted his energy. He looked much older than his actual age.

“Young Master Jiang, I entrust my young mistress to you!”

Jiang Yuan nodded, then called out a silver bracelet.

“What is the origin of this thing?”

Li Yao glanced at the silver bracelet, then gathered his strength.

“This is an ancient divine weapon, one of the relics left by the Supreme of Qinling!”

“This ancient divine weapon is a product of the lost era. It is said to be named Vajra Talisman!”

“Vajra Talisman?” Jiang Yuan revealed a surprised expression.

He was also shocked.

In the myths and legends of his previous life, the Vajra Talisman was quite colorful and possessed supreme divine power.

It’s still unclear whether it’s the same treasure or just a coincidence.

If it’s the same treasure, it would be normal to have such power.

That might just demonstrate one ten-thousandth of the treasure’s effect.

However, no one knows the method of cultivating ancient divine weapons today.

Even divine weapons with strong power will have a hard time demonstrating their true strength, which is a bit of a pity!

Li Yao nodded, “Yes! As long as Young Master Jiang wipes out the mark I left, and leaves your own mark, then enrich it with your blood and divine sense, it will slowly awaken and unleash the supreme power of this item.”

Jiang Yuan suppressed his surprise and nodded slightly.

“Understood!”

Next, Jiang Yuan opened his palm and the Vajra Talisman slowly rose.

The Solar True Fire erupted in an instant and burned the Vajra Talisman.

Under the burning of the Solar True Fire, Li Yao’s mark instantly vanished.

Silver light flowed around the Talisman, making it look mysterious.

As the Solar True Fire burned, the item became even more mysterious.

It seemed to be slowly recovering, with a diffuse silver aura and the charm of Dao.

He then retracted the Solar True Fire, and the object fell into his hand.

It was completely transformed, and unlike when it was restrained before, it was now enveloped by the merging energy of the silver light.

When he touched it with his skin, it felt cool, without any sensation of burning heat.

“It’s really amazing!”

Jiang Yuan sighed.

Then, he applied his own primordial spirit’s mark on it.

Next, he slowly put it on his wrist, letting it fit against his skin.

Under the skin, threads of his vitality immediately flowed into the Vajra Talisman.

As strands of vitality entered, Jiang Yuan knew that it was enough for now.

Nurturing this item needs time, it can’t be rushed.

After doing this, Jiang Yuan’s gaze fell on Li Yao again.

“Do you have any last words?”

Li Yao smiled and shook his head, “No! Seeing Miss escape from the clutches of the Chu Family, I’m already very content!”

He then looked at Qin Yun, “Miss, when you go back, you must take care of your body. As the only direct descendant of the Supreme of Qinling, you must take good care of your body!”

“As long as you take good care of your body, you can start cultivation in a year or two, by which time, the treasures you’ve lost will eventually be nurtured back!”

Qin Yun nodded earnestly.

“Grandpa Li, don’t worry!”

“Good!” Li Yao showed a happy smile.

As he continued to smile, the light in his eyes gradually faded, and his life slowly slipped away.

Shu Xiaoxiao was stroking Qin Yun’s head, letting her lean against herself and cry quietly.

Jiang Yuan also sighed slightly.

He admired this man’s loyalty.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan suddenly thought of Uncle Ma again.

He couldn’t help but smile, Uncle Ma, wait a little longer, when I return, I’ll prolong your life and lead you to the path of cultivation.

Then you can really enjoy yourself!

…

About half the time it takes to brew a pot of tea later.

A small mound appeared in one corner of the valley.

Li Yao now lay within it.

Apart from the slightly raised earth, nothing else was left.

“Sister, can’t we set up a tombstone for my Grandpa Li?”

Shu Xiaoxiao patted her head, “No! If we set up a tombstone, we clearly tell others that a cultivator in the Dharma Realm is buried here!”

“Alright then!” Qin Yun said softly.

Jiang Yuan also spoke, “Remember this place well, when you have a chance, you can come back to pay your respects.”

“Okay!” Qin Yun nodded.

Jiang Yuan waved, “Qin Yun, come here!”

“Just call me Yun’er, Brother Jiang Yuan. That’s how my mother used to call me!”

While speaking, she somehow walked a few steps weakly, came to Jiang Yuan’s side, and grabbed his clothes.

Jiang Yuan put his palm on her head and once again sensed the condition of her body.

Then he frowned slightly.

“Young Master, Qin Yun’s body is very weak now!”

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, “At this rate, her body won’t hold up much longer!”

“Brother Jiang Yuan, do I have any hope?”

Qin Yun held Jiang Yuan’s clothes tightly, looked up and asked.

Then she said, “I don’t want to die! I want to take revenge for my mother, and for my Grandpa Li!”

Jiang Yuan smiled, rubbed her head, “Of course there’s hope, as long as I’m around, you won’t be in trouble!”

While speaking, a droplet of blood shimmering with numerous golden particles slowly condensed at Jiang Yuan’s fingertip.

Under the sunshine, this droplet of blood shone with a strange glow.

“Yun’er, open your mouth!”

Hearing Jiang Yuan’s words, Qin Yun opened her mouth.
