Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement

Chapter 543: Chapter 264: If I Can’t Avoid It, I’ll Join

The cave dwelling is very spacious.

There are several hidden chambers.

Traces of the Saintess can be found everywhere.

Inside are the ancient books and secret manuals collected by the Saintess, along with various bottles and jars she tinkered with, and some strange and unusual items.

A hundred years have passed in haste.

Many items inside the cave dwelling are covered in dust, and some small trinkets turn to ashes at the slightest touch. Even the ancient books and secret manuals have a musty smell, with some words already illegible, and many pages fused together under the corrosion of time.

"This sword?"

At this moment, Jiang Feng was drawn to a long sword hanging on the wall behind the bookshelf.

He felt that this sword seemed familiar.

He took it down to inspect it.

"Whistle!"

The long sword was unsheathed, its cold and sharp light flickering out from the blade, and Jiang Feng felt a force of resistance as he held it in his hand.

This sword had already been refined by someone and was not without an owner.

"It’s the Saintess’s personal weapon."

"Wasn’t she already dead? How come there’s still her presence on this sword, and so strong?"

"Could it be... she’s not dead?"

Jiang Feng pondered carefully and was shocked, mouth agape.

He knew that even if this sword was left behind by the Saintess, given the time of her fall, a hundred years had passed. According to her cultivation level back then, the markings belonging to her on this sword would have long vanished under the Laws of Heaven and Earth.

Yet, an ordinary long sword could still retain its original owner’s presence after a hundred years.

And the original owner was not powerful, just an ordinary Qi Condensation Cultivator.

"If she’s not dead, where would she go?"

"Back then, Mo Changlin made the Divine Sect Disciples abandon resistance and flee towards the Sea of Blood. Now it seems they were heading for the Blood Domain. Could it be that the Joyful Union Sect has backup in the Blood Domain?"

"The Saintess wasn’t killed in the Sea of Blood but instead successfully reached the Blood Domain and was restored with the help of a powerhouse?"

"No."

"The Saintess only had a wisp of her soul left. Reshaping her body is easier said than done. Even if she’s still alive now, she’s just a lonely soul, and if I want to kill her, it would be as simple as turning my hand."

Jiang Feng didn’t believe the Saintess could reshape her body, nor did he think anyone would be willing to expend their vitality to help her do so. In his view, for a residual soul to reshape a body is many times harder than becoming a Golden Core Powerhouse.

The Saintess couldn’t achieve it.

Therefore, Jiang Feng was not flustered upon learning the Saintess wasn’t dead.

He continued to wander around the cave dwelling in hopes of finding something valuable. If he could find a cultivation technique in the ancient books and secret manuals, that would be best.

So Jiang Feng focused on the ancient books and secret manuals, carefully reading each book. Even when some pages fused together, he would try to read all the visible content to prevent any divine skill secret manuals from leaking away.

Three hours later.

The successfully reconstructed Saintess and her handsome senior brother flew all the way to the old site of the Divine Sect from the new site.

The Saintess halted at the old site’s entrance.

The magnificent stone archway still bore the plaque of the Divine Sect, its vigorous and powerful script naturally formed. Many proud disciples once kneeled here without rising, only to join the ranks of the Divine Sect.

When she first came to the Divine Sect, it was the Divine Calculator, still in good health, who held her hand walking into the sect. The disciples kneeling outside and inside were eyeing her with envy and jealousy.

At that time, she didn’t know that due to the uniqueness of her soul, she became the Saintess as soon as she entered, her status and position in the sect close to that of the Grand Elder.

A hundred years later, returning once more, her fellow brothers and sisters have vanished completely, and the former glory is no more.

And all this is related to that person.

The Great Zhou State Preceptor, Jiang Feng!

"Master, I am back."

The Saintess stepped over the sect’s gate and called inside.

How she longed for someone to answer her.

But unfortunately, before her lay a desolate scene. The once magnificent buildings were mostly in ruins. Her voice received no response from her brothers and sisters but instead frightened the little demons living there.

They scurried away.

Their calls echoing incessantly.

"These beasts."

The handsome senior brother wanted to show off before the Saintess by killing all those little beasts. After all, this was once the sect of the Saintess. Even if it was decayed and desolate, it must not be tainted by the filthy remnants of those creatures.

"Let them go!"

The Saintess stopped him.

She had imagined countless times what the current Divine Sect would look like. The scene before her had appeared in her mind more than once.

Even though her heart was in pain, she was prepared.

"Junior Sister, we can’t stay here long."

The handsome senior brother reminded.

"I’ll go back to the cave dwelling to retrieve a few items, then we’ll leave."

The Saintess nodded.

She led her handsome senior brother towards her cave dwelling.

"Someone’s here?"

"This is..."

"The Saintess, this far beyond reason, she’s not only returned but also rebuilt her body?"

Within the cave dwelling of the Saintess, Jiang Feng stood with mouth agape, incredulous.

When the Saintess and her handsome senior brother appeared at the mountain gate, Jiang Feng was immediately on alert, extending his spiritual sense to get a glimpse of the Saintess.

Seeing her alive and stronger than before, Jiang Feng wasn’t merely startled. He assumed the Saintess had traced his aura to this place.

Along with that handsome senior brother, who radiated a sense of danger, Jiang Feng dared not extend his spiritual sense over them, knowing full well that the brother was also a Foundation Establishment Realm powerhouse.
