Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily-Chapter 249 - 247: Arrival of the Innate Masters!

"Minor Success Realm, not so easy..." Song Changming shook his head and said.

Even though he had the daily evaluation bonus for his cultivation state, wanting to reach the Minor Success Realm with the True Yang Technique still required a long time of accumulation.

[Third Grade True Yang Technique: Basic level (1/28000)]

Looking at the long experience bar displayed on the panel, this was only the experience value necessary to practice to mastery, and the experience required for the subsequent Minor Success Realm must double again!

Though the True Yang Technique was powerful, it was equally difficult to practice.

This was why top experts like Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang clung to their own martial arts inheritance and showed little interest in other martial techniques.

This was purely due to limited energy.

In one’s lifetime, to practice one’s martial arts inheritance to the Peak of Perfection is already a rare feat and a significant achievement. Trying for more would be biting off more than one can chew.

"It’s about time to head to Dragon Gate Ridge; I want to see what these martial artists from Ancient Abyss Country are capable of..." Nan Wuji said.

"Alright." Song Changming and Su Yaoguang didn’t delay further.

Now, this outer city was already overcrowded, compared to when Song Changming and the others first arrived, there were at least several times more people.

Only because the five-year period was drawing near, those who heard about Dragon Gate Ridge, whether powerful or not, were flocking here to observe.

The three left the city, their figures quickly merging into the thick fog, heading towards Dragon Gate Ridge.

...

Dragon Gate Ridge was already a sea of people.

In the Outer Realm, the occasions that could gather such a crowd were few and far between.

The Dragon Gate Ridge event held every five years was one of them, and many had rushed to occupy positions on the mountain early.

According to the Outer Realm’s rule of strength predominance, the stronger one’s power, the higher the position one could wait at on the mountain, closer to the arriving Ancient Abyss Country warriors.

Otherwise, one could only stay at the foot of the mountain, merely joining the excitement, and might not even catch a glimpse of the Ancient Abyss Country warriors.

Though Song Changming and his companions arrived a bit late, it didn’t hinder their ascent.

"Stop!"

As soon as they started climbing, someone tried to block them.

Nan Wuji, at the forefront, didn’t wait for them to utter threats; he directly released Crimson Sword Qi, piercing several holes in the body of the one obstructing. The group then obediently kneeled down to beg for mercy.

Following that, Nan Wuji straightforwardly cleared the path with Crimson Sword Qi.

Anyone who dared stand in the way was promptly pierced through without further ado.

At the Eighth Layer Qi Refining stage, recognized as the foremost powerhouse in Da Han, there truly was no one on Dragon Gate Ridge who could stop him.

Song Changming, trailing behind, found this leisurely.

Thus, the three continued their ascent to the mountain’s peak.

"Nan Wuji!"

"Su Yaoguang!"

At the summit, someone quickly recognized them, but Song Changming was unfamiliar.

As Sect Leaders of Da Han’s Hidden Sect, ranked top three on the Celestial List, their appearances might seem ordinary to common Outer Domain people, simply a pair of handsome men and pretty women.

But among many Outer Domain evil sect masters, they caused a significant shock.

Among them were those who had crossed paths with the duo before.

"Why have you appeared here!" A master of the evil sect shouted.

The presence of Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang was like dropping two large stones into the lake, stirring up a wave.

In the thick fog, numerous powerhouses approached, surrounding the three.

Song Changming scanned them all, seeing powerful martial artists of Qi Refining Fourth and Fifth Layer and above!

Quite a number!

Their eyes carried deep hostility, seemingly prepared to besiege the three.

Nan Wuji didn’t waste words; he was never one to shirk a battle.

Eight Crimson Swords flew out from him, encircling, exuding sword intent.

He didn’t mind washing this batch of Outer Domain evil sect people with blood before the Ancient Abyss Country warriors arrived.

Just when Song Changming thought this battle unavoidable, the heavens suddenly echoed with a penetrating sound, and an overpowering aura enveloped Dragon Gate Ridge.

Then, a strong wind blew, dispersing the thick fog around Dragon Gate Ridge.

Song Changming looked up, seeing several figures descend from the sky, swiftly approaching.

The formidable aura was sensed from these figures.

Crossing the Void, combined with the terrifying aura emanating from them, the identity of these people was self-evident.

It is exactly the powerhouses who have come from the Ancient Abyss Country!

Their appearance quickly resolved the imminent siege below.

"Junior Zhuang Shouqing of the Yuhua Sect, pays respect to all Celestial Beings!"

"Junior Jin Yangao of the Cangying Sect, welcomes all Celestial Beings!"

"..."

At the summit of Dragon Gate Ridge, the crowd respectfully bowed.

"Celestial Beings?" Song Changming muttered to himself, thinking that this was probably a term used in the Outer Domain for innate martial artists.

Those who can cross the abyss and come to this place must indeed be innate powerhouses!

Ten people descended: six men and four women.

Their gaze swept carelessly over everyone, and a tall man at the forefront calmly spoke.

"Today, we are recruiting talents. I am Gao Xin from the Zhong Ruijing Village’s Golden Thunder Gang of the Ancient Abyss Country, here to seek disciples for the gang. Anyone with excellent Thunder Attribute aptitude and Qi Refining Fifth Layer cultivation or higher may join.

If possessing an Innate Thunder Physique, one need not be tested in Qi Refining to join and will receive special treatment!"

This person was straightforward, stating his identity directly, the force behind him from the Ancient Abyss Country, and the recruitment conditions without any further ado.

"Thunder Attribute aptitude..." Song Changming was puzzled.

How is this supposed to be tested?

Having cultivated up till now, he still didn’t know about his own Thunder Attribute aptitude.

The panel only displayed the attribute values of his Root Bone, along with related information about his physique.

Aside from that, there wasn’t much elaboration on his talent and aptitude.

"Since they are from the Ancient Abyss Country, there should be a method. Given that you can master the Chu Family’s Flying Thunder Technique, perhaps your Thunder Attribute aptitude meets their requirements," Nan Wuji said to Song Changming.

"Indeed, if one’s attribute aptitude doesn’t align with their Martial Technique, it’s generally difficult to achieve results; this can be considered an indirect proof," Su Yaoguang nodded and said.

Simply put, like Song Changming, who has achieved success in both Thunder and Fire Attribute Martial Techniques, both being at the Minor Success Realm or higher.

This suggests that his related Thunderfire Attribute aptitude is undoubtedly excellent.

Whether it satisfies their recruitment conditions is something that can only be determined through evaluation by them.

Later, a lady dressed in green, with graceful and elegant features, spoke: "Chen Feiyi from the Zhuyu sect of the Azure Water Bamboo Forest, our sect is recruiting those with excellent Water Attribute aptitude and Sword Dao aptitude, requiring Qi Refining Seventh Layer cultivation or higher.

If possessing an Innate Water Physique or Sword Dao Physique, one may directly join!"

"Water Attribute aptitude, and Sword Dao aptitude..." Song Changming muttered to himself.

Beside him, Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang, upon hearing the Sword Dao aptitude requirement, couldn’t help but glance more attentively at the lady.

Both are on the path of the Sword Dao, and while they might not dare to guarantee other aspects, they were confident in their Sword Dao talent, not weaker than anyone!

As for the merit of this so-called Zhuyu sect, they had no way of knowing, nor were they concerned with such matters.

First, they needed to enter the sect, only then could they go to the Ancient Abyss Country.

Any future plans would require this ticket; only after reaching the Ancient Abyss Country could they have the leeway to consider other options.

Next, the other arrivals also explained one by one, stating their origins, revealing their selection conditions.

Their voices spread strongly throughout the entire Dragon Gate Ridge.

Their conditions were generally similar.

First, they looked at aptitude, then cultivation; other considerations were not emphasized.

As for character and virtue, such aspects couldn’t be discerned upon first meeting, and would need observation after entry into the sect.

The last was a swordsman in white, looking the youngest by appearance, who slowly spoke.

"I am Ding Shengyu, a disciple of Spirit Sword Mountain, recruiting sword cultivators, requiring excellent Sword Dao aptitude and Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivation; if possessing a Sword Dao Physique, the cultivation requirement may be relaxed."

Upon hearing this, Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang exchanged glances.

The Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivation requirement was undeniably high, but the two of them happened to meet this cultivation requirement and were exactly the Sword Dao aptitude talents he was recruiting!

It must be said that they perfectly matched this so-called Spirit Sword Mountain.

Compared to other sect factions, Spirit Sword Mountain’s recruitment conditions were undoubtedly the highest.

"Oh, I didn’t expect that one of the Three Thousand Spirit Mountains, Spirit Sword Mountain, would also come here to recruit, but this trip might disappoint Brother Ding; there aren’t many in this barbarous land to catch Brother Ding’s eye,"

Gao Xin of the Golden Thunder Gang, who had previously spoken, laughed with some surprise.

He seemed not to have anticipated that this young man was from Spirit Sword Mountain.

Ding Shengyu smiled lightly, opening his mouth to say, "If there are, it’s good; if not, it’s no matter."

...
