My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 290 – Before the Treasure Was Born, the Big Boss Arrived First

Chapter 290 Before the Treasure Was Born, the Big Boss Arrived First

Life was actually like that. There would always be some hardships that were hard to predict.

For example, he was smashed by something as he walked. As he was refining pills, he was struck by the Heavenly Punishment nine times in a row. Each strike was stronger than the last, and he was seriously injured…

However, humans had to learn to be strong. It was also a necessary skill for a mature man to be happy in times of hardship.

Yes, the Heavenly Punishment was not without benefits.

In the sunset, Li Changshou, who had changed into a new robe made by Ling’e, lay on the rocking chair in front of the Pill Chamber. He looked at the “Treasure Bag of Vomiting Blood” that had turned into ashes in his palm and felt the medicinal effects of the two sixth-grade recovering Spirit Pills, as well as the comfort that slowly spread throughout his body. A smile of peace and relief graced his face.

He had gained some resistance to lightning. If he was struck again in the future, his injuries would be reduced…

Then, Li Changshou continued to worry. If every Golden Immortal realm paper effigy has to be subjected to the Heavenly Punishment, who can withstand it?

There was no other way to solve that problem. He could only try again after he recovered.

If the creation of every Golden Immortal realm paper effigy would subject the creator to nine Heavenly Punishments, he could only give up on that path.

To be safe, if he were to trigger the Heavenly Punishment when he assembled the second Golden Immortal paper effigy later, he would directly destroy the second paper effigy and see if he could persuade the Heavenly Punishment to stop… Although treasures were precious, his life was more valuable.

It was not like he could not use the paper effigies that were at the Heaven Immortal realm. At most, he would use the tactic of piling a large number of paper effigies to win!

Li Changshou took a deep breath and stood up with some effort. His entire body felt numb and sore, as if he was about to fall apart…

He walked back to the Pill Chamber and found a bookshelf in the corner. He conjured a seal with both hands and used the modified transformation technique.

He transformed into a small butterfly and entered the hidden compartment behind the vase in the corner of the bookshelf.

Footsteps could be heard from the side. ‘Main Body’ Paper Effigy No. 3 had already gone to work. It walked to the Pill Furnace and meditated properly. In reality, Li Changshou’s attention was already on the only paper effigy with the combat power of the Golden Immortal realm. He drove the paper effigy towards the underground Earth Meridian Teleportation Array.

The Golden Immortal realm’s incarnation’s escape technique was rather smooth…

At that moment, Li Changshou suddenly had an absurd thought.

Did I accidentally create something impressive and extraordinary?

He lowered his head and looked at his paper effigy. He stared at the pill that was slowly revolving in the paper effigy’s abdomen and recalled the cultivation method of the Essence Soul Dao in the Primordial World that was currently in trend…

As the Primordial World was too suitable for cultivation, every place outside the South Continent was filled with pure spiritual energy. One could dig out a spirit meridian from any mountain.

In such an environment, it was not difficult for humans to embark on the path of cultivation. With aptitude and cultivation techniques, they could embark on that path. It was just that the places they could reach were different.

Therefore, the current cultivation system was to refine Qi, cultivate the essence soul, and ascend to immortality.

If the external environment was not as excellent as that, cultivators would have to continuously purify spiritual energy in order to satisfy the requirements to become an immortal…

Wouldn’t that require another cultivation system?

Golden Pill Great Dao? As long as he had enough time, he could deduce a new cultivation system that was suitable for an environment with “weak spiritual energy”! I have swallowed a Golden Pill into my stomach. My life… ahem, the same sky is still above my head!

At that thought, Li Changshou felt a sense of danger. It was as if a pair of eyes was watching him.

The eyes were not looking at his main body or the paper effigy’s incarnation. Instead, they were looking at his essence soul and true spirit with a hint of warning.

Li Changshou instantly dispelled his thoughts. He bowed to the sky and kept reminding himself.

Don’t think about it, don’t think about it!

Why am I always thinking about these meaningless things!?!

In an instant, the feeling of being watched dissipated. Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief. He immediately made the paper effigy that was of the Golden Immortal realm escape deeper and closer to the Headless Mountain.

After half a month of investigation, Li Changshou had figured out the details of that place.

The demon city on the Headless Mountain was called ‘Ci Tie City’. It was considered an important town of the demon race.

The human race and the demon race had been fighting for many years since the ancient times. However, the human race could not destroy the demon race, and the demon race could not revive. Hence, the two sides fell into a deadlock.

In addition to being at odds against each other, the demons and humans had formed a tacit understanding. They would open up some of their towns to both sides and do things for each other.

For example, at the border of the North Continent, there were many human and demon towns.

The town that Daoist Kuai Si had gone to was one of them.

Ci Tie was one of the ten Great Demon Saints of the Demon Court in ancient times. The demons should have named the city after this demon expert in order to commemorate him.

The person in charge of that place was from the Ox Demon race. It could be considered a large race among the demons at present.

Most importantly, Li Changshou had been investigating for a long time. No one could say that there were experts left behind from the ancient times in the demon race.

Li Changshou did not dare to be careless.

He had seen the scene of Ox-head and Horse-Face bullying and defeating the experts of the Asura race. In the ancient battle, Ox-Head and Horse-Face were the experts of the Magi race who had followed the Lady of Earth to the Netherworld. They were the kind of people who were unknown.

If he used the Ox-head and Horse-Face as a measurement of the combat power of an ordinary Golden Immortal from the ancient times, there might be a few figures among the ox demons who would be hard to deal with. The valley that Big Boss Fuxi had predicted to be the location of the numinous treasure after some divination, was the “tribal ground” of the ox demon…

It would affect the entire situation.

At that moment, he sorted out everything and came up with a set of effective information. Ci Tie City is rich in precious metals. It’s suitable for forging sharp blades. The ox demons are not considered to be hostile towards the human race. They have existed for tens of thousands of years and are very obedient. Every time the human race and the demons had a conflict, they would not interfere.

The human Qi Refinement cultivators seem to have neglected this place. There are no immortal sects or organizations that would lead them to exterminate demons.

However, the city was ultimately the territory of the demons. There were a large number of experts from the demon race who had huge negative karma. Occasionally, human cultivators would be attacked after leaving the city.

The human cultivators who dared to go there naturally had some impressive skills and were competent. Their cultivation levels were at least at the late-stage of the Perfected Immortal realm…

How did Li Changshou obtain the information?

Naturally, collecting intelligence could not be done with one-sided efforts. It also had to be technical.

Firstly, Li Changshou used an ‘old Daoist’ paper effigy and used the excuse of wanting to buy some black gold to sneak into the city.

A few days later, using the appearance of a young girl and an old woman, he went to the immortal sects and towns closest to the place that he was in, to inquire about the information regarding the ox demons of Ci Tie City.

The “young girl” first went to the immortal sect that was thousands of kilometers away and asked the old man who was guarding the mountain if he had seen her grandfather, telling him that her grandfather said that he was going to a place called ‘Ci Tie City’. She claimed that she did not know where the city was.

The old woman went to the town and asked if anyone had seen her husband before. She also took the opportunity to search for the rumors about Ci Tie City…

In that case, he could verify the news from various sources and did not have to be afraid of being investigated.

There were also some details. For example, if he used the image of a young girl to get close to the old man who was guarding the mountain, he could guarantee that those old immortals would not chase him away…

Anyway, Li Changshou had seen such a situation many times when he was monitoring the Immortal Du Sect.

Ahem, let’s talk about treasure hunting.

Before Li Changshou took action, he had to first have a plan and prepare a few backup plans.

After the paper effigy that was in the Golden Immortal realm arrived, he was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, he set up hidden sentries outside the city and the valley, observing the place from all directions…

It took him half a year.

In the past half a year, Li Changshou had captured the pressure of the Golden Immortal realm from the same expert three times. He thought that the other party should be an expert from the demon race who was guarding the city. The frequency was rather high.

At the same time, Li Changshou figured out the flaws of the array formation in the city and found the weak spot to break the array formation from the inside.

He had figured out the deployment of the troops, the laws of defense, and the speed at which they deployed reinforcements…

Apart from that, he had also seen the City Lord’s wife’s younger sister meeting the demon general, who was guarding the north gate in the wilderness. He had seen the City Lord’s wife’s brother-in-law and the City Lord’s wife secretly playing footsie under the table.

The City Lord was an ox demon in the late-stage of the Heaven Immortal realm. He drank and ate with a group of demon experts every day. The green hair on his head was rather unique…

The treasure I’m looking for is most likely this ox demon’s clan treasure.

Li Changshou deduced.

The battle plan that he had decided on was not complicated. It was to lure the ox demon away.

He would pretend to attack Ci Tie City and spread the sense of danger. He would then deploy the experts of the demon race in the valley and take the opportunity to enter the place to search for treasures.

The only thing he was uncertain about now was which realm the strongest expert of the ox demons was at. If there was a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal guarding it, most of the paper effigies would be crippled.

Therefore, to be safe, Li Changshou arranged the ‘Golden’ Paper Effigy No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6 that he had just completed, to go over.

The three ‘Golden’ Immortal paper effigies entered a frontal attack. One Golden Immortal paper effigy entered the valley to search while the other two Golden Immortal paper effigies were prepared to escape at any time! The six Golden Immortal realm paper effigies gave Li Changshou more confidence to search for treasures.

Naturally, he was most pleased about the Golden Immortal realm paper effigies during this period of time.

After Li Changshou recovered from his injuries, he tried to make a second Golden Immortal paper effigy. He did not receive the love and concern of the Heavenly Dao again. However, as he continued to create paper effigies, Li Changshou could vaguely sense that if more than nine Golden Immortal realm paper effigies existed at the same time, the Heavenly Punishment would descend, and it would be even more ferocious than before.

Forget it.

I’m afraid.

At the current stage, six Golden Immortal incarnations were enough. He could also make up the story of the six Golden Immortals besieging Ci Tie city.

The fake bugle horn was set to be blown up three days later by Li Changshou! I have to break through Ci Tie City’s array formation within an hour and stop the other party’s reinforcements. I have to kill the demons in the city who are suffering from negative karma and enter the valley to search for treasures!

The battle is about to… come…

“Brother Sect Master -“.

The sudden wave caught Li Changshou off guard.

Li Changshou immediately retracted his attention. A wisp of his spiritual will landed on the Sea God Temple in Anshui City, which had already been completed. He used his spiritual will to build a bridge and bring Ao Yi into the dream.

What happened? Li Changshou had never neglected the dragon race. However, the dragon race had been stable recently and nothing major had happened. What should have been done had still been done.

“Brother Sect Master!”

In the dream, Ao Yi, who was dressed in a golden-patterned white brocade robe, looked even more delicate and refined. He jumped in front of Li Changshou and immediately bowed.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Look at how happy you are. Is there any good news?” “Hehe, Brother, do you have anything important to do these few days?”

After hearing Ao Yi’s question, Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, “There’s something I have to do. I’ll be busy for half a month. Could it be that there’s something you want me to do?”

Ao Yi could not help but pause. He frowned and said, “Brother, why didn’t you tell Ao Yi that you need help handling something? I am willing to help you!” “It’s fine. I’m just looking for something.”

Li Changshou shook his head with a smile and asked, “Do you have anything to do here?”

“It’s not something important.” Ao Yi hurriedly said, “However, Aunt-Master Qin Wan from Golden Ao Island looked for me and asked if I could invite you to the Golden Ao Island for a banquet. In three days’ time, an Aunt-Master and an Uncle-Master will become Dao companions on the Golden Ao Island. Everyone wants to take the opportunity to have some fun.”

“I won’t go.” Li Changshou smiled and shook his head. “Later, send someone to Anshui City. I’ll prepare a gift for them. Just help me to deliver it.”

“Alright.” Ao Yi immediately nodded and agreed. Then, he looked at Li Changshou with concern. “Brother, if you have something to do, please tell me!”

“Don’t worry.” Li Changshou raised his hand and patted Ao Yi’s shoulder.

Ao Yi knew that he was a disciple of the Immortal Du Sect. It was not impossible for him to make use of Ao Yi to get the experts of the dragon race to help him facilitate the operations in Ci Tie City. However, the dragon race had been troubled by too many things recently. He had to lessen the burden on them. Li Changshou smiled and said, “I won’t be polite to you.”

Ao Yi grinned and quickly ran away.

There was a joyous occasion on Golden Ao Island…

Li Changshou thought about it and felt that that matter should not have anything to do with him. It should not affect the important matters that he had to do.

He had to continue preparing for battle!

Hence, three days later… an hour before Li Changshou was getting ready to fight, hundreds of thousands of figures gathered outside a hall on Golden Ao Island.

In a corner of the hall, the Goddess of Fire Spirit, who was wearing a golden crown, frowned and looked at the empty main seat in the middle of the hall.

Goddess of Golden Light, who was dressed in a short skirt, walked over quickly from the side and asked softly, “Where’s Eldest Senior Brother? Why isn’t he here yet? Didn’t Eldest Senior Brother come with you?”

The Goddess of Fire Spirit could not help but slap her forehead.

“Just now, he said that he smelled that a treasure was about to be born and wanted to go take a look. I really don’t know where he is now.”

“Well…” The Goddess of Golden Light thought for a while. She continued, “I’ve already said it previously. Eldest Senior Brother Duobao came personally to witness the two of them… What should we do?”

“Why don’t we invite another eldest disciple over?”

“We can’t go to the Green Touring Palace… How about this?” The Goddess of Golden Light hurriedly said, “I’ll invite my two sworn brothers to rush to the nearest Three-Immortal Island together. Let’s see if we can invite one of the three senior sisters over.”

The Goddess of Fire Spirit looked a little guilty. “I’ll go with you. I really…”

“Ah.”

The two goddesses looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
