Chapter 363: 174~175: The perfect deduction of life span resources, revealing enemy situation during pioneer exploration (nearly 8k votes needed for the month)_2 Chapter 363: 174~175: The perfect deduction of life span resources, revealing enemy situation during pioneer exploration (nearly 8k votes needed for the month)_2 This has essentially become an unsolvable issue for cultivation.
The only solution is to acquire a higher-ranked Soul Snatching Array Disk to expand the formation’s scope and improve its efficiency.
“Soul Snatching Array Disks are extremely rare, and the Longevity Sect, which doesn’t focus on formations, doesn’t possess such disks.
Qiangzi and I have searched the nearby marketplace for a long time but could not find any information about this type of disk.
It seems we will have to search for it through corresponding sects!”
Chen Dengming was pleased, watching the mini array spirit and Xu Wei’s dance, contemplating prior to his cultivation.
When going to the location he was tasked to guard, he might encounter cultivators from sects like the Heavenly Dao Sect or the Shu Sword Pavilion.
He heard that cultivators from the Strange Object Sect are also participating in this war, so there might be a chance of running into them.
...
The Strange Object Sect is famously known for possessing countless treasures.
All kinds of exotic objects can likely be found within this sect.
Chen Dengming speculated that the Soul Snatching Array Disk and the blueprint that Jiang Qiang had initially procured may have actually come from the Strange Object Sect.
The mini array spirit might not necessarily have been crafted into the disk, there could be another truth.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense for a sect like the Yin Ghost Sect to have collected both the Soul Snatching Array Disk and its blueprints.
Perhaps these were lost by a cultivator from the Strange Object Sect when they attacked the Yin Ghost Sect.
Chen Dengming collected his thoughts to observe his current state.
“Foundation Establishment Complete Cultivator [Chen Dengming]
Life Span: 92/391/819
Spiritual Root: Gold, Wood (Top Quality 100/100)
Martial Arts: ”Chen Family Martial Arts Compendium” (Transcendent 37/100)
Daoism: “Longevity Spring Skill” (10th Level 493/70000), others omitted…”
After his breakthrough to the tenth level of Longevity Spring Skill, his life expectancy has increased by another 15 years.
Currently, his maximum lifespan is 819 years, leaving him with 428 years to spare.
Chen Dengming planned to consume 130 years of lifespan during his upcoming guarding and pioneering period, elevating “Life-Shortening Cultivation Enhancement Skill” to the top of the third level.
Even though he tried before and found that cultivating this skill further barely increased his Spirit Affinity, he decided to give it another go since his lifespan had increased again.
After all, entering the Golden Core stage in the future would significantly boost his lifespan once more.
Soon, he calmed his mind and entered a state of cultivation.
His proficiency in Changchun Skill, increasing every twenty-three minutes!

…
Two hours later.
The spirit boat of the Longevity Sect arrived at a wasteland thousands of miles away with everyone on board.
There were already some cultivation families leading a group of loose cultivators to pioneer the land, but progress was slow without an expert to guide them.
When Chen Dengming and others from the Longevity Sect arrived, these cultivation families and loose cultivators seemed visibly relieved, their gazes filled with awe when they looked at Chen Dengming and Du Baoyue.
“From now on, we will be in charge of this area.
You all can return and report,” Du Baoyue instructed the cultivation family members during the handover.
Then, she looked at Chen Dengming for confirmation.
“Brother Chen, what do you think?”
Chen Dengming nodded with a smile, “Daoist Friend Du, handle it as you see fit.”
“Alright!”
With a smile on her face and a load off her mind, Du Baoyue took an even greater liking to Chen Dengming.
Brother Chen from Changchun Sect was indeed approachable without any arrogance.
Unlike the False Core senior brothers from our sect, who were somewhat arrogant and not as easy to deal with.
“I’m going to take a walk.”
Chen Dengming was a bit uncomfortable with the solemn atmosphere in the house created by the silent cultivation family members, as if he was going to eat them.
After giving a heads-up, he flew out of the house to inspect the wasteland.
The many loose cultivators gathered in the mountains bowed their heads when they saw Chen Dengming, not daring to offend him and showing extreme reverence.
Chen Dengming looked at more than a hundred loose cultivators in various outfits.
Some looked presentable in their robes with clean faces, while others were grimy and disheveled.
Compared to the loose cultivators, the Qi Cultivation disciples of the Longevity Sect, all clad in official sect robes, appeared much more formidable.
Their bright clothing and confident, nonchalant demeanor made them stand out.
However, Chen Dengming felt a greater affinity for the loose cultivators, not knowing whether it was because he saw his past in them, or because he couldn’t relate to the pride and confidence displayed by the disciples of the Longevity Sect.
Chen Dengming called upon his Black Cloud Leopard, rose into the air, and began to survey the wasteland.
Passing through this deep forest known as Chang Mountain Deep Forest will lead to the Western Region after about a thousand miles.
This made this area strategically important.
If this area could be cultivated and a fortress similar to the Jiamu Pass could be constructed, it would provide a strategic location for both offense and defense.
It could also prevent demon cultivators from the Western Region from infiltrating through this deep forest.
Clearly, there had been demon cultivators attempting this before, which was why this wasteland was selected as a clearance area.
This time, in addition to dealing with potential powerful demonic beasts that could emerge during the clearance, his primary objective was to guard against demon cultivators from the Western Region who might have obtained information and would want to disrupt the clearance process.
“Word has it that the battlefields ahead have all been sealed off by the Heavenly Dao Sect and Shu Sword Pavilion.
Since my location is behind the war front, it’s unlikely that any demon cultivators will infiltrate and cause disruption!”
Riding his leopard, Chen Dengming circled and surveyed the terrain from the air.
This area was covered by lush forest as far as he could see.
In many places, sunlight could hardly penetrate through the leaves, casting only faint light on the forest floor.
