My Informative Cultivation Life

"We cannot allow the breaking of rules, that much is certain!"

Elder Wuji sneered coldly.

"You..." Jing Po shouted sharply, her wrinkles tightening suddenly, making her look as ghastly as a fierce ghost.

"Ancestor, although Yang Ji is the foremost true disciple, his strength is extraordinarily uncommon. Even if other top true disciples came, a battle at the same level would lead to their deaths!"

Next to Jing Po, a Dao Child spoke, his eyes suddenly flashing, "His abnormal strength, I suspect, must be related to the Palace of Life and Death he obtained inside. There must be against-the-heaven opportunities within that palace."

"There must be against-the-heaven opportunities! Within the Palace of Life and Death, the Dao Principles are dense, and atop it manifested the top-tier Immortal Technique 'Seal of Life and Death'. It's conceivable that the treasures inside are numerous; perhaps even Immortal Pills litter the ground. Otherwise, how could Yang Ji have such a formidable foundation?

After entering, he became Five Tribulations Dao Child, and upon exit, with the early-stage Void Refining Cultivation, he defeated all of us!" Another Dao Child conjectured with a slight shimmer in his eyes.

"The Palace of Life and Death? Top-tier Immortal Technique? What Palace of Life and Death?" The group of senior ancestors looked puzzled. Upon hearing the phrase 'top-tier Immortal Technique', they slightly shivered and quickly asked their underlings with furrowed brows.

"Ancestors, that Palace of Life and Death was hidden in the fabric of spacetime and has only recently become visible. Inside, there are likely the inheritances left by a fallen Quasi-Imperial Monarch," the Dao Children explained to their respective ancestors.

"Quasi-Imperial Monarch inheritances?" Upon hearing this, all the ancestors exchanged glances, their breath becoming more measured.

Elder Wuji's eyes darted around, his thoughts becoming very agile.

"Indeed, that Palace of Life and Death must be the inheritance left by that Quasi-Imperial Monarch; otherwise, how could there be a top-tier Immortal Technique? That technique is called 'Seal of Life and Death'; I was fortunate enough to comprehend some of its mysteries, but now, I can't fathom it anymore," the Reaper said, regret evident in his voice.

"Why can't it be fathomed anymore?" Leng Su asked, perplexed.

"Ancestor, you may not know, but Yang Ji took away the Palace of Life and Death, and we no longer have the chance to comprehend that 'top-tier Immortal Technique'!" The Reaper emphatically bit the words "top-tier Immortal Technique".

Indeed, these four words were truly startling.

A top-tier Immortal Technique was not something that every Red Dust Immortal or even every supreme Dao Sect possessed.

It was a genuine grand opportunity.

If one managed to thoroughly understand it, it would become their most powerful trump card.

Seizing the moment, Jing Po found a reason to attack, snorting, "The Life and Death Realm belongs to the six major forces, and any palaces that appear within should belong to us. This youngster Yang Ji knows neither gratitude nor appreciation; not only did he kill our people, but he also took the palace. He must be executed!"

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by 'killing your people'? Let's not conflate issues!" Elder Wuji immediately showed displeasure upon hearing this, "Killing your men was the ability of my brother Yang; it has nothing to do with taking the palace. Let's stick to the facts and keep matters separate."

Hearing Elder Wuji's impartial words, several ancestors looked at each other and nodded, "We will concede this time's first place to you; we won't break the rules. However, he cannot take away the Palace of Life and Death."

"Regarding the matter of the palace... Brother Yang's actions were indeed improper; we should discuss this at length," Elder Wuji continued, feigning contemplation.

These conforming words were actually meant for Xuan Zhong to hear; his thoughts were already tangled with those of the other five ancestors.

A top-tier Immortal Technique, who wouldn't be tempted?

No one could resist the temptation!

Even regular Immortal Kings would shamelessly demand it.

Xuan Zhong heard their words, scoffed, and simply continued to enjoy his delicacies, while Shi Linger frowned and muttered from the side, "They seem to be plotting to take the good things from Big Brother Yang."

"Let's see what tricks they can come up with!" Xuan Zhong laughed coldly, unconcerned.

As the Void Refining geniuses from the five major forces continued to revive in the outside world, in a flash, Yang Ji and Ren Fengge, among others, also reappeared.

"Ancestor, we have fulfilled our mission!" Ren Fengge smiled and saluted Elder Wuji with clasped hands.

"Hahaha, well done! I've heard about the happenings inside; Brother Yang Ji, congratulations on becoming Unparalleled Daozi, you are truly admirable!" Elder Wuji laughed heartily, clearly very pleased.

It was apparent that this first place allowed him to gain a considerable amount of Pure Yang Water.

"Senior, please check the count!" Yang Ji said with a smile, tossing a token.

"Eighteen Dao Children and four hundred Void Refining talents, not bad, not bad at all!" Elder Wuji beamed with smiles, "Brother Yang, in accordance with our agreement, I should give you fifty-eight gourds of Pure Yang Water!"

"Here you go!"

Yang Ji had thought that he might make excuses to deduct some, considering the fifty-eight gourds of Pure Yang Water was not a small number. However, against expectations, he was quite generous and tossed all fifty-eight gourds of Pure Yang Water out with a wave of his hand.

With one glance, Yang Ji took in all the information and reached out to catch them, cupping one hand in the other in front of his chest as he smiled and said, "Ancestor, you are magnanimous. Thank you very much!"

"Hehe, Brother Yang, you're too polite. It's I who should be thanking you for helping me win first place this time!" The Tribulation Immortal's face was flush with excitement, obviously very pleased.

"Alright, let's cut the chit-chat. Kid, hand over the Palace of Life and Death in your possession, and we will let you go," Jing Po suddenly said with a cold and deep voice.

"The Palace of Life and Death?" Yang Ji knew it was coming. He didn't need to look at the information above everyone's heads to understand everything.

There was no great surprise in his heart.

After all, inside the Palace of Life and Death, there were top Immortal Techniques. It was normal for them to covet it.

However, he had his own plans when he decided to take the Palace of Life and Death.

Advance in retreat, take the initiative!

"What if I don't hand it over?" Yang Ji asked with a light smile.

"Not hand it over? Then today I will properly discipline the disciple of Elder Wuji on his behalf! It wouldn't be too much to suppress you in my Posuo World for a thousand years, to let you experience a fate worse than death. Then you would know how to respect your elders, and understand that some things are not for you to take!" Jing Po sneered sinisterly, full of brutal cruelty.

"Oh?" Yang Ji looked at Jing Po with a frown, then suddenly relaxed. "The Palace of Life and Death came into my possession, which shows destiny is on my side. Are you trying to take away my chance?"

"Hey, kid, it seems you really don't know what's good for you. The Life and Death Realm is ours; you took what is ours, yet you speak as if we are robbing you of your opportunity. You resemble a Star Bandit more than we do!" Ming Tu sneered maliciously.

"Why waste words on this brat? Take him down in one fell swoop!" Jing Po suddenly made her move, truly explosive and ferocious, thrusting her large hand toward Yang Ji.

Bang!

Just as this vital energy hand was about to capture Yang Ji, it exploded out of nowhere.

Xuan Zhong appeared in front of Yang Ji at some point, holding a chicken leg and smiling, saying to Jing Po, "Suppress my junior brother? Did you ask for my permission?"

"Xuan Zhong, are you trying to stop me?" Jing Po's gaze darkened as deadly intent was unveiled.

"I'm not just going to stop you, I'm going to beat you. How dare you attack my junior brother? It's like the sky is falling!" Xuan Zhong lost it, moving instantly as a pair of pure gold wings appeared behind him, decorated with golden runes of nobility.

With just a slight shudder, a terrifying golden storm swept across the stars and headed straight for Jing Po.

"Seeking death, a Nine Tribulations Immortal brat dares to strike at me!" Jing Po was infuriated, her Posuo World swirled behind her, immediately absorbing the entire golden storm.

But the next moment, Xuan Zhong unexpectedly tore through the Posuo World and abruptly appeared in front of her. He raised his fist high and slammed it down fiercely on her face.

Bang!

This punch sent Jing Po flying out directly.

This turn of events shocked everyone to the core.

"Looks like they still don't know about the glorious martial exploits of this fellow Xuan Zhong. That fatty has proven to be an existence not even Ao Gu can suppress.

If they forcibly take the Palace of Life and Death from Yang Ji today, and these two brothers settle their accounts in the autumn, it's probably not going to be pretty," murmured the Tribulation Immortal, furrowing his brow as he fell into deep thought.

Boom!

Just as Xuan Zhong was about to pursue his advantage, he was suddenly blasted away.

When he looked again, four people had appeared. Four Red Dust Immortals stood in front with cold expressions, their presence intertwining to form a powerful force that surged toward Xuan Zhong with overwhelming pressure.

"You little rascal, you dared to attack me!" Jing Po went into a frenzy, shrieking sharply, "Strike together, suppress these brothers here and now. Even if Elder Wuji himself turns up, he won't be able to save them!"

"Thinking you can outnumber us?" Xuan Zhong was not the least bit scared and turned to Yang Ji, "Junior brother, call for backup!"
