Ruomu fried people’s life

“Not to mention where there are so many corpses of fallen Golden Core cultivators.”

“After a Cultivator dies, he returns his Dao to the heavens. Although a Golden Core is the Cultivator’s condensed understanding of the Laws of heaven and earth, it still needs rare heavenly Materials as its Foundation.”

“After returning the Dao to the heavens, the rare Material loses its uniqueness, and the Law condensed within the Golden Core loses its Foundation. Not only is the quality of the Golden Core greatly reduced, but over time, there is also a risk of disintegration, making long-term preservation impossible.”

As if it touched upon his professional Domain, Xiu Mu spoke with great clarity.

A rare color appeared on his face, and his tight wrinkles unconsciously smoothed out.

“But all these problems and troubles can be easily solved as long as the Cultivator is willing.”

“If a Cultivator extracts his Golden Core while alive, it will not trigger the malicious mechanism of heaven and earth. With the rare heavenly Material as the core, the Golden Core can then be preserved for a long time.”

“Although the Cultivator will lose all his cultivation and become no different from a Mortal, it’s just the Golden Core Realm! Cultivating from scratch again doesn’t take much effort!”

“With sufficient resources, it will take at most ten years to re-condense a new Golden Core.”

“Hmm, although the production cycle is still a bit long, with our current number of Cultivators, we can achieve a harvest of hundreds of Golden Cores every year.”

Xiu Mu spoke horrifying words in the calmest tone.

“Long-term, stable, and harmless. Can that kid Zhang Debiao, who occasionally got incredibly lucky, compare?”

“He can’t!”

“So, Fellow Daoist, if you have needs, you must prioritize us!”

Xiu Mu looked at Li Fan, a hint of eagerness flashing in his eyes.

Li Fan was clearly not convinced by his simple words and shook his head repeatedly, “Fellow Daoist, don’t deceive me. How can any Cultivator willingly have his Golden Core extracted and then repeat the cycle every ten years or so? Just thinking about it, I can feel that kind of horror…”

“Misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!” Xiu Mu quickly interrupted Li Fan.

“We are now able to extract Golden Cores painlessly and harmlessly. Those Cultivators not only don’t feel pain but also experience a different kind of comfort. I even know a guy who, in order to constantly experience the pleasure of having his Golden Core removed, immediately throws himself back into cultivation every time his Golden Core is taken out.”

“He is now considered our most efficient Cultivator, capable of cultivating a Twin-Law Golden Core every three or four years on average.”

Xiu Mu didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with what he said and enthusiastically explained to Li Fan.

Even as indifferent as Li Fan was, looking at Xiu Mu before him, a chill couldn’t help but well up in his heart.

“So, Fellow Daoist, all your worries are completely unnecessary.”

“We have been vetted by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and are officially recognized. Think about it, we supply a certain amount of Materials to the Immortal Alliance every year. If these things truly had quality issues, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would be the first to come knocking! So, Fellow Daoist, rest assured!”

Li Fan narrowed his eyes: “The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance also knows what you are doing? But why have I never heard of it?”

Xiu Mu heard this and whispered, “It’s because our philosophy is too advanced. The Immortal Alliance said that if it were made public, it would definitely cause public misunderstanding.”

“That’s why it’s kept a secret.”

“They are all Mortals, so it’s normal that they can’t accept it. But someone like Yu Daoyou should be able to understand our approach, right?”

Xiu Mu looked at Li Fan with anticipation.

“I can understand, but for a moment, it’s still a bit hard to accept,” Li Fan said, half-truthfully.

Xiu Mu seemed to have found a rare kindred spirit and clapped his hands in praise; “I knew it! I didn’t misjudge you! Fellow Daoist is a person with great Foundation!”

He suddenly stood up, pacing back and forth, excitedly saying, “Sympathy for one’s kind is a natural Law. It’s normal that Fellow Daoist cannot completely change his mindset for now!”

“But I believe that once you personally visit us, you will quickly change your mind!”

“How about it, Fellow Daoist, would you like to visit?”

Li Fan didn't even think about it and was about to refuse directly.

Unexpected things happened.

Somehow, looking at this old, frail Cultivator before him, and then thinking of the countless Golden Cores that might be waiting for him there.

Li Fan, who needed complete Golden Cores to unlock the anchor points, surprisingly changed his mind by some uncanny means.

“Alright! There’s no harm in taking a look!”

He nodded and agreed.

The moment the words left his mouth, Li Fan’s heart was filled with shock.

He suddenly realized.

This gray-robed Cultivator before him was definitely countless times more dangerous than he had imagined!

He just wanted to buy some Cultivator Golden Cores, so why did he encounter such a mess!

His luck was truly too bad!

Li Fan cursed inwardly, muttering, “Huan…”

Halfway through his words, Li Fan stopped himself.

In his heart, he suddenly felt that it was no big deal.

It shouldn’t have reached the point of directly Huan Zhen, right?

The other party was, after all, certified by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, so there wouldn’t be any murder for money.

Moreover, he had planned for a long time in this life, and it was not easy to develop to the current situation.

Once he Huan Zhen, everything would have to start over, wouldn’t that be quite troublesome?

…

Numerous thoughts instantly surfaced in Li Fan’s mind.

They actually made Li Fan convince himself and change his mind.

“Xiu Mu, how should I address your organization, and how do I get there?” Li Fan now asked with an expression of great interest.

Xiu Mu slapped his head, somewhat annoyed, “Oh, oh, I almost forgot to introduce it to Yu Daoyou.”

“Our place is called…”

“Frying Longevity”

Li Fan wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but when Xiu Mu said the last sentence, his tone and expression instantly turned somewhat sinister.

Just a moment later, Xiu Mu returned to his previous enthusiastic expression.

“As for how to get there…”

“Fellow Daoist, just grab onto me!”

Li Fan then naturally and reasonably grabbed Xiu Mu’s sleeve.

“Fellow Daoist, stand firm!”

Xiu Mu shouted, chanting, “Heaven and earth have Ruo Wood, consuming life day and night…”

It was as if thick smoke surged, and in the blink of an eye, the surroundings were a vast gray.

Aside from constantly twisting light and shadow, and strange whistling sounds.

No other sights could be seen clearly.

However, at this moment, Li Fan felt no sense of danger whatsoever.

He even felt a strange sense of belonging well up in his heart as he looked at the gray mist enveloping him.

As if he rightfully belonged there.

After an unknown period, the gray mist disappeared.

The surrounding scenery also became clear.

“Yu Daoyou, we’ve arrived!”

Following Xiu Mu’s greeting, Li Fan also clearly saw the sight of Frying Longevity.

A towering, yet withered and spotty, large tree stood before them.

On its branches, countless Cultivators hung densely.

Just like fruits on a tree.

The new year brings Li Fan a whole new kind of shock.
