My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 100 A Man Should Treat Himself…

Chapter 100 A Man Should Treat Himself...

“Why is the array formation that Fifth Senior Brother set for me not working?”

Sitting on the large gourd, Jiu Jiu put a hand on her forehead and chewed on the Spirit Pills, which were extremely chewy and did not stick to her teeth. They were able to strengthen her spirit and stabilize her essence soul. She drifted along and before she knew it, she had already arrived above Little Qiong Peak.

Jiu Jiu felt a little dizzy...

She did not know why the protective array formation in her residence was acting up, but it suddenly stopped.

Jiu Jiu tried a few times but failed. She definitely could not spoil it!

As a cultivator who was at the late-stage of the Perfected Immortal realm, she had her own unique method to break the array formation although she did not know the Dao of array formations.

She used her immortal power to protect her body. When she hit it with her head, it was instantly broken.

Jiu Jiu then repaired the array foundation buried under the house based on her experience of working hard on the Little Qiong Peak all year round.

Therefore, none of the array formations in the attic, the defensive array formations, isolation array formations, soundproofing arrays, and spirit-gathering array formations... could be used anymore!

Jiu Jiu could not help but support her forehead with one hand. Array formations, alchemy, and refining artifacts, were too complicated for her.

She wanted to look for someone to help her with the array formations, but she realized... that her Eldest Senior Sister and Second Senior Brother had gone out with their master. They used the corpses that were left behind that day to investigate the enemy’s background.

Her Third Senior Sister had gone to accompany her Dao companion, and so did her Eighth Senior Brother. He was busy managing the funerals of his fellow cultivators of other peaks who had died in battle.

Her Fourth Senior Sister and Fifth Senior Brother, who were closest to her, had also gone out together with the elders of the Hundred Mortal Hall to purchase some treasures for the foundations of the mountain-protecting array formations.

Her Sixth Senior Sister and Seventh Senior Brother were in seclusion and healing each other. It was said that they had some kind of mysterious technique that could help each other improve at the same time...

Thinking about that, Jiu Jiu snickered and sat on the large gourd. She entered the array formation of Little Qiong Peak and floated downwards.

She did not go there purely to look for wine. Instead, she had something important to do.

I’ll ask Changshou to help me settle the array formations around my pavilion!

Jiu Jiu summarized her experience of failing to repair the array formations. She felt that it was probably because she had lacked Li Changshou’s nagging... After entering the isolation array outside Little Qiong Peak, Jiu Jiu could not help but smile in satisfaction.

She saw Ling’e, who was meditating under the tree, Li Changshou who was refining pills in the Pill Chamber, and her Senior Brother Qi Yuan, who had disappeared previously.

Little Qiong Peak did not seem to have experienced the calamity that struck earlier on. It was as peaceful and tranquil as before, and there was an interesting ambiance.

Jiu Jiu did not disturb Ling’e, who was cultivating. She flew straight to the Pill Chamber and the array formation in front of her closed automatically. She discovered on the way... that for some reason, there were some empty patches in the forest near the Pill Chamber, and there were a few new ponds.

Was he up to something related to Feng Shui?

Jiu Jiu blinked and did not bother any more.

Li Changshou naturally discovered Jiu Jiu’s presence long ago.

He stood in front of the Pill Chamber and secretly stopped the paper effigies that he had just sent to run errands and settle things once and for all in the South Ocean yesterday, in an inconspicuous spot in a corner of the East Continent.

He left a wisp of his mind to monitor the surroundings. Most of his mind returned to his original body, and he smiled at his Little Aunt-Master who was flying in the sky.

After a while, Jiu Jiu hesitantly explained the reason for her arrival. She raised her hand to adjust the ends of her hair beside her ears.

“Can you help me once... I’ll give you some remuneration.”

“Little Aunt-Master, if you need anything, I will naturally do my best to help you.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “There’s no need to mention any remunerations.”

“This time, the sect suffered a calamity. I have understood a lot. In the future, if you don’t have any wine to drink, you can come here to get some.” Jiu Jiu’s eyes lit up and she chuckled. “Tell me, do you want to cozy up to me?”

Li Changshou hurriedly shook his head and deliberately put on a stern expression.

“Aunt-Master, it’s a little inappropriate of you to be cozying up to me. After all, there’s a difference in seniority. Although seniority is not a big problem, I have always treated you as a respectable senior.”

“I don’t mean that. I mean backing, I mean, no...”

Jiu Jiu’s face was blushing slightly. She put her hands behind her back and felt conflicted. Her clean face was a little rosy.

Li Changshou could not help but chuckle. Jiu Jiu immediately reacted and realized that she seemed to have been teased by her disciple-nephew.

She glared at Li Changshou and said fiercely, “Follow me! Repair the array formations! How dare you tease me? Are you itching for a beating? Hmph! I’ve always been helping you refine pills tirelessly. I must make you incredibly exhausted today!” Li Changshou cupped his hands and told Jiu Jiu to go back and that he would rush to the Heaven-Breaking Peak in an hour’s time. That way, he could avoid being noticed by others while walking together with a Jiu Immortal. He could also arrange a suitable hiding place for the paper effigies that he had sent out.

Jiu Jiu did not think much about it. She went back to prepare some precious materials for repairing the array formations. She jumped onto the gourd and flew back to her own residence whilst in a good mood.

After Jiu Jiu left, Li Changshou stood in front of the Pill Chamber and pondered for a while before returning to the Pill Chamber to meditate.

He closed his eyes and shifted his mind to the paper effigies that he had sent out.

In order to resolve the problem regarding the South Ocean Sea God Sect as soon as possible, Li Changshou “challenged” himself and “took a risk” this time. He adjusted the paper effigies for a few days before asking his master to help him release the team of paper effigies.

This time, he sent several paper effigies to the South Ocean.

The new ‘God’ Paper Effigy No. 1, and the ‘God’ Paper Effigy No. 2 were the main vice-captains of the team.

The six ‘Heaven’ paper effigies were in charge of traveling, escaping, and fighting during critical moments. There were also numerous paper dolls with original mystical abilities.

The firepower that they carried were a miniature array disc, a poisoning Dharma artifact that he had developed himself, and poisonous pills that he did not use during the battle in the Immortal Du Sect. The poisonous pills were the main weapons.

The purpose of the operation was to use peaceful and obscure methods to cause the South Ocean Sea God Sect to collapse naturally in the shortest time possible, so as to allow him to escape from the unstable “bomb”.

He controlled the ‘Heaven’ Paper Effigy No. 2, which was in charge of leading the paper dolls and paper effigies along the way. He used the Earth Escape technique to make the paper effigies more obscure. He left a wisp of his mental power on them and remained vigilant.

After doing all that from afar, Li Changshou sat quietly in the Pill Chamber for a while.

After calculating the time, he got up and changed into a clean robe. At the same time, he checked the various items on his body and thought about whether he had missed out anything during the preparation...

He did not dare to go to the South Ocean because he was worried that he would be ambushed by the people of the Western school and that they might be waiting for him.

However, a competition between sects had already begun.

Li Changshou had to go and stop them before the battle escalated to a massive scale.

After thinking about it, Li Changshou decided not to take back the paper effigies that he had sent out this time.

In order not to cause more trouble, Li Changshou focused on strengthening the paper effigies’ “suicide” attributes during the past few days.

The paper effigies could “die” anytime and anywhere. They could also maintain the form that they had transformed into. They could burn themselves into ashes, lift themselves up and end everything!

As a man, he should be more ruthless to his paper doll!

Moreover, Li Changshou had also discovered that it might have been the ashes of a bunch of demon experts that had been buried in Little Qiong Peak...

The few old spiritual trees had shown new signs of life!

“Before the little tree grows up, I’ll have to trouble you guys.”

Li Changshou smiled and sat in front of the Pill Furnace, quietly pondering about his subsequent plans.

Merit and negative karma were very mysterious and closely related.

Although merit and negative karma could be offset, according to Li Changshou’s understanding, negative karma was equivalent to poisonous pills.

Merit was equivalent to antidotes.

Even if he had prepared ten thousand antidote pills, he did not want to really consume one!

Even if the negative karma was offset by merit, there might be some marks left on his body.

Although he had transcended the Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation and advanced, his cultivation level had stabilized. He began to fight steadily, making his way to the Longevity realm, step by step.

However, there was still another obstacle waiting for him in the future...

The Golden Immortal Tribulation.

Living beings were not allowed to live forever on heaven and earth. One would have to go through the natural processes of birth, old age, sickness and death.

If death did not exist, how can life be proven?

Unless he had the protection of merit, he would only be able to avoid the Golden Immortal Tribulation if the Heavenly Dao felt that his longevity was beneficial to the stability of the world.

If he had negative karma, he would have to face the Heavenly Tribulation, the Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation, and Golden Immortal Tribulation which were all akin to death.

Therefore, Li Changshou did not want to be involved with any negative karma. He had to deal with the matter regarding the Sea God of the South Ocean as soon as possible.

He would definitely make a few preparations to strengthen himself continuously.

Although the Golden Immortal Tribulation was terrifying, and there were very few records about it in various ancient books, and Li Changshou felt that there should still be a limit to its intensity...

He would naturally be seventy-percent confident in transcending the tribulation as long as his accumulation of the Dao and his cultivation level surpassed the upper limit of the Heavenly Tribulation.

The other thirty percent would depend on the preparations apart from his cultivation level.

“Ah...”

Li Changshou stood in front of the Pill Chamber and sighed softly.

At the end of the day, he still had to train hard.

“When you cultivate, give yourself a little bit of leniency. When you transcend the tribulation, you will have to work hard.”

Li Changshou muttered to himself. He felt that that sentence could be written in the succeeding version of the Steadiness Sutra.

Li Changshou rode a cloud and slowly flew towards the Heaven-Breaking Peak...

It did not matter if others heard what he said.

At that moment, his cultivation level was at the eighth-stage of the Void Return realm. It was reasonable for him to be worried about the Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation.

“Are you really going to get physical?”

Deep in the South Ocean, on the surface of the ocean near an Immortal Island.

Ao Yi, who looked like a young man, stood in front of Han Zhi, whose cultivation level was a little higher than his. He raised his head slightly and looked at his three fellow members who were in front of him.

On the Immortal Island, many human Qi Refinement cultivators flew into the air and watched the conflict calmly.

The cause was actually very simple.

Ao Yi and Han Zhi went to the South Ocean to relax. When they arrived at the town of the island, Ao Yi met his cousin, who was hatched from his egg almost at the same time as him —the Second Prince of the South Ocean Dragon Palace. At that moment, three descendants of the dragon who were dressed in brocade clothing and had horns on their heads were standing in front of Ao Yi.

The person in the middle was thin and had long and narrow eyes. Although his face was not as handsome as Ao Yi’s, there was something that Ao Yi could not compare to...

He had a normal stature and was eight feet tall.

He was Ao Mou, the Second Prince of the Dragon Palace in the South Ocean.

Ao Mou was the one who mocked Ao Yi and said that he had insulted the Dragon Clan. Ao Yi did not say anything at first. He merely wanted to bring Han Zhi away as he did not want to start a conflict with his race.

However, how could Han Zhi see her Uncle-Master suffer any grievances?

She ended up provoking the three dragons with one sarcastic remark and two scoldings. She rebutted, disagreed, and they got physical.

The onlookers were all talking and scrutinizing. It was very lively!

To put it simply, the two parties had a conflict and agreed to fight at sea.

When Ao Yi asked Han Zhi if she was really going to get physical, Ao Mou sneered and gestured for his two followers to retreat.

Ao Mou’s cultivation level was similar to Ao Yi’s. Their bloodlines were similar, and they were both the sons of the Dragon King.

Although Ao Yi had been eliminated once, he had gained quite a lot of benefits from the Jie School.

Ao Mou had abstruse mystical abilities. He was going to teach his “Second Cousin” who had embarrassed the dragon race, a lesson today.

At that moment, the two dragons faced each other on the surface of the ocean and started fighting

The battle was quite intense. Both parties were considered rivals, but Ao Yi quickly gained the upper hand and suppressed Ao Mou.

However, Ao Mou was not in a hurry. He activated his mystical abilities and instantly disappeared from the surface of the ocean.

When he was in the ocean, he would be invincible!

Mystical ability: Swimming Dragon Turns into Water!

Ao Yi constricted his pupils. He was ready to launch the Black Ice Heavenly Fire around him. He kept his eyes fixed on the surface of the ocean and continuously searched around.

He had experienced that feeling before... All of a sudden, several figures appeared on the surface of the sea. All of them looked like Ao Mou. They raised their spears and swords, and charged at Ao Yi!

However, Ao Yi did not panic at all. He suddenly stomped on the surface of the sea, and waves of seawater condensed into an Azure Dragon. It exploded around him and destroyed the figures!

Waves appeared on the surface of the sea!

At that moment, Ao Yi suddenly leaped to the left. He raised his hand and clenched it. Then, he turned his fist which instinctively hurt the opponent, into his palm!

Amidst the rumbling sounds, a few water jets rose from the surface of the sea, making everything even more chaotic.

When the rising seawater fell, Ao Yi’s body...

At that moment, Ao Yi’s feet were three feet away from the surface of the sea. His long hair, which was tied up, fluttered gently behind his back.

He placed his left hand behind his back and extended his right hand to grab Ao Mou’s neck. Then, he lifted Ao Mou up, who was eight feet tall, into the air.

Ao Mou’s eyes widened and his voice trembled.

“How... how did you find my figure...”

Ao Yi said calmly, “Your mystical abilities are far inferior to that of my good friend’s.”

Then, the image of the well-mannered human Qi Refinement cultivator appeared in front of Ao Yi’s eyes again. He casually threw Ao Mou who was in his hand aside.

“Go and apologize to my Disciple-Nephew.”
