Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 1440 - 55 Yuanci Turmoil
Chapter 1440 -55 Yuanci Turmoil
Beneath the dim sky.
Dark seawater crashed violently against the coast, waves churning, and the booming sound of the sea resonated through heaven and earth.
A barrier stretched from north to south, reaching the Vault of Heaven, like a confluence of a hundred rivers, seemingly endless at a glance.
Daoist Yuanci stood mid-air, looking down solemnly at the sea below.
“The situation here at Eightfold Sea has worsened significantly compared to three years ago.”
Beside him, Qu Shentong, An Changshou, Xiong Zhaojing, and Qin Shengyong stood firm, also gazing solemnly at the scene below.
Although they had been monitoring the situation in the West Sea Country’s Eightfold Sea via reports, they had never been here in person.
Aware of the severity, only by witnessing with their own eyes did they realize how grave the Yuanci Turmoil had become.
Beyond the core area of the Eightfold Sea, the entire West Sea Country had become barren.
The spiritual energy was depleted; though there were living beings, they were all mortals and beasts.
Such an environment had little impact on mortals and beasts, but for cultivators, it was akin to a forbidden zone.
Only Nascent Soul Cultivators, with their highly condensed mana, could barely move about in this environment.
Had it been Golden Core or Foundation Establishment cultivators, their realm might have declined quickly, with their mana dissipating.
Even so, there was a dangerous possibility of realm decline for Nascent Soul Cultivators if they stayed long.
“Daoist Brother Yuanci, we have thoroughly memorized the magical seals you transmitted to us; how to use them and resolve this Yuanci Turmoil, please instruct us,” said An Changshou, the Elder of Longevity Sect, who appeared gentle and scholarly, lacking any fierce aura typical of a Sword Cultivator, glancing at Qu Shentong before speaking to Daoist Yuanci.
Daoist Yuanci pondered briefly before responding:
“The scope and depth of the Yuanci Turmoil are immense, not a predicament that sprung up overnight. To utterly eradicate it is not a task to be completed in a day or two, this must be understood.”
An Changshou, Qu Shentong, Xiong Zhaojing, and Qin Shengyong exchanged looks, then nodded slightly:
“As Daoist Brother Yuanci said, we understand and will not be recklessly hasty, but will proceed steadily.”
Daoist Yuanci then nodded:

“The real Truth Membrane Eye of Yuanci is the root; its rampant spread is merely on the surface. To eliminate this disaster, we must first treat the root. However, eliminating the root will cause the surrounding Yuanci forces to collapse and spread. If such a massive force of Yuanci is uncontrolled, it will bring misfortune not only to the West Sea Country but also to a large portion of Fenglin Continent.”
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions turned more serious.
Xiong Zhaojing could hardly repress his voice:
“We came here originally to prevent the spread of Yuanci to Jin, wouldn’t this course of action be even more severe?”
An Changshou and Qin Shengyong also appeared quite solemn.
The only one who was calm was Qu Shentong.
An Changshou’s eyes swept past Qu Shentong, and his face immediately brightened:
“If Daoist Brother Yuanci mentions this, surely there must be a solution?”
Hearing this, Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong also showed a hint of relief.
Daoist Yuanci’s expression was serene, and he did not beat around the bush, straightforwardly stating:
“The method I think of is to handle it step by step. Part of us will focus on the core area of Eightfold Sea to prevent Yuanci from flowing out, containing it here, while the other part will clear the periphery. Once the clearance is complete, we’ll join forces, progress the formation in steps, gradually dividing, until we pinpoint and ultimately seal the Membrane Eye.”
The group looked at each other, then nodded in agreement.
The method was easy to comprehend; though not very ingenious, it was certainly stable.
“It’s worth a try.”
An Changshou thought for a moment, then with a solemn face, glanced at the distant sea barrier, and declared in a serious tone:
“I, a cultivator of Longevity Sect, will stand guard around the Eightfold Sea, cutting off the outward flow of Yuanci.”
Hearing An Changshou’s decision, the other three were somehow surprised.
Qu Shentong then frowned and said:
“The sea of Eightfold Sea is rampant with Yuanci, making it tough to stand ground. Brother An is being generously brave, and we should not take it for granted…”
He pondered:
“My sect will allocate three hundred cultivators to assist Brother An in guarding.”
“Three hundred?”
Although Qu Shentong had previously agreed to fill up the numerical gaps, everyone from the Three Sects and One Clan knew each other well, and they were somewhat aware of Wanxiang Sect’s situation.
Moreover, among those who had come from Wanxiang Sect, there were only about a hundred people.
Hearing Qu Shentong’s decision to allocate three hundred cultivators to guard this place, everyone was somewhat surprised and curious.
However, Qu Shentong seemed completely oblivious to the curiosity in everyone’s eyes, coolly instructing his disciples standing not too far behind:
“Hall Master Lin, later gather the disciples to clear the perimeter, oh, and take charge of the east and south side of the Eightfold Sea.”
A red-clad cultivator, upon hearing this, immediately bowed:
“Lin Yi obeys the command.”
Seeing Qu Shentong swiftly managing his sect’s affairs, and even the direction to clear being the potentially dangerous sea area, showed his sense of responsibility.
Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong, although curious about where those addition three hundred plus Wanxiang Sect cultivators were from, also declared:
“Brother An, Brother Qu has shown great generosity, how could we lag behind? Let our two families take charge of the north part of West Sea Country and Eightfold Sea.”
With this, the arrangements for Three Sects and One Clan were largely in place.
An Changshou then turned to Daoist Yuanci courteously:
“Only Daoist Yuanci is deeply knowledgeable in the Yuanci Path here, please coordinate and dispatch timely.”
Daoist Yuanci smiled lightly and nodded:
“This is my duty.”
After speaking, he gave instructions to each about their responsibilities.
“With Yuanci running rampant, the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone is also affected, and communication is quite difficult. It’s best to gather regularly to summarize the specific situations…”
