"Hehe, Young Master Jiang, the task you gave this old man has been successfully completed."
Immortal Venerable Tiangong squeezed out a flattering smile on his old face. As long as he could cling to Young Master Jiang's massive ship, would he ever lack lifespan in the future?
It was worth noting that many cultivators across the Nine Heavens were currently speculating that the refining method for the Life-Extending Pills in Jiang Che's hands likely didn't require too many immortal materials. This meant Jiang Che could mass-produce an incredible amount of Life-Extending Pills.
An immortal had once estimated that the sheer number of Life-Extending Pills Palace Master Tian had taken from Jiang Che was enough to extend a single person's lifespan by a hundred million years!
What a terrifying concept was that?
"Oh?" Jiang Che propped his head up with one hand and glanced at the old man.
"Young Master Jiang, because time was too tight, I only managed to forge forty immortal artifacts. Among them are twenty Five-Tribulation immortal artifacts with various buff attributes, and twenty Four-Tribulation immortal artifacts..."
The old man raised his hand and presented a storage ring to Jiang Che.
Jiang Che sent his divine sense inside and nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad, these clothes are made quite well. From now on, your Artifact Forging Immortal Sect will be solely responsible for making clothes for me."
Jiang Che's single sentence almost made Immortal Venerable Tiangong lose his composure.
What did he mean by 'solely responsible for making clothes'?
Their Artifact Forging Immortal Sect was a supreme immortal sect passed down since the ancient Heavenly Court era, not a tailor shop...
"Young Master Jiang, you must be joking. Our Tiangong Immortal Sect..." Immortal Venerable Tiangong was just about to speak...
"For every piece of immortal artifact clothing you make, this young master will give you one top-grade Life-Extending Pill as a labor fee. How about it?"
Jiang Che curled his lips into a smile.
Immortal Venerable Tiangong: "!!!"
H-How much?
One top-grade Life-Extending Pill???
"D-Disciple? T-This one top-grade Life-Extending Pill... h-how many years of lifespan does it add?" The old man was completely dumbfounded.
"M-Master, one top-grade Life-Extending Pill... adds ten thousand years of lifespan!"
Immortal Venerable Tiangong naturally knew this, he just couldn't believe it!
"Young Master Jiang, rest assured! From now on, our Artifact Forging Immortal Sect is your personal tailor shop. All the clothing you and your family need will be entirely handled by our sect!"
The old man had absolutely no principles.
"By the way... Young Master Jiang, do you need any immortal artifact-level lingerie?" The old man shamelessly leaned in closer, his grin revealing his yellowed teeth.
"Lingerie?" Jiang Che raised an eyebrow.
"That's right, you know... we can totally develop new types of lingerie, guaranteed to make you, hehe..."
"Of course, all women's intimate apparel will be refined by the female elders of our Artifact Forging Immortal Sect. You can be at ease about that... Actually, our Artifact Forging Immortal Sect originally started out making lingerie."
Saying so, the old man pulled out a bizarre-looking piece of clothing from his pocket.
"Just look at the texture and craftsmanship of this Vast Ocean Universe Bra."
Jiang Che: "......"
To think how shameless a person could truly be... but Jiang Che just so happened to appreciate this kind of talent.
"Here, these Life-Extending Pills are the deposit."
Jiang Che tossed over a jade bottle containing one hundred top-grade Life-Extending Pills.
"This—"
The old man's eyes widened, and his breathing became extremely rapid!
These were one hundred top-grade Life-Extending Pills. If he swallowed them all by himself... he could directly extend his lifespan by a million years!!!
Not even an Immortal Emperor would outlive him.
It wasn't until they left that Immortal Venerable Tiangong finally snapped back to his senses.
"Master!! Master, we're rich! This is one hundred top-grade Life-Extending Pills!"
The youth said excitedly, craning his neck to greedily sniff the jade bottle.
But the old man tucked the bottle away as if it were his most precious treasure.
"Hey, you old geezer, that's no fun... Anyone who sees it gets a share, alright?"
"You damn brat, you're still young. You've become a Half-Step Immortal before even reaching ten thousand years of age. You still have over a hundred thousand years left to live..."
The youth's mouth twitched. Who would ever complain about having too long of a life?
"You can't handle these Life-Extending Pills. Leave them to your master... your master can handle them," the old man said thick-skinnedly, simultaneously tossing one Life-Extending Pill into his own mouth.
His eyes immediately narrowed, and the life essence within his body began to be frantically nourished.
Previously, when Jiang Che held the pill auction, he hadn't attended because the entire Artifact Forging Immortal Sect was working overtime to forge immortal artifacts for Jiang Che.
They weren't stupid. Rather than bankrupting themselves to bid on a few Life-Extending Pills, it was much better to firmly cling to Young Master Jiang's thick thighs.
Just look at how successful their investment was now!
"Handle my foot!" The youth instantly erupted, viciously knocking the old man over the head.
Three minutes later, the youth also got his wish and tasted a top-grade Life-Extending Pill.
"Wonderful... truly wonderful. This Life-Extending Immortal Pill is indeed extraordinary once consumed. The power of life is truly miraculous," the youth sighed in admiration.
"Alright, a taste is enough. These Life-Extending Pills must not be touched again!" Immortal Venerable Tiangong's expression turned serious.
"I will permanently seal these Life-Extending Pills within the forbidden grounds of the Artifact Forging Immortal Sect. Only when key personnel of the sect are lacking in lifespan can one be taken out."
The old man then handed a token to the youth. "I am giving this token to you. If anything unforeseen ever happens to our Artifact Forging Immortal Sect in the future, you must immediately teleport to the sect's forbidden grounds and consume all the Life-Extending Immortal Pills..."
The youth fell silent, his expression turning slightly somber.
The pair of master and disciple usually acted like bitter enemies, but whenever it came to matters of true importance, their minds were as clear as mirrors.
"Okay," the youth nodded resolutely.
The Life-Extending Pills... were now the Artifact Forging Immortal Sect's greatest trump card. Even if the sect were truly destroyed, if someone had their lifespan extended by millions of years... and chose to endure in hiding, that would be an extremely terrifying prospect.
"Pah, pah, pah! Why did I say so much to a silly brat like you? Hurry back and look up some references. We need to forge sexy lingerie for Young Master Jiang... Go back and tell those women to get to work. We've officially latched onto a big thigh!"
...
Jiang Che called all the girls over.
The atmosphere instantly became lively.
"What? Pretty clothes?" Qin Qiaoqiao's eyes widened slightly, seemingly quite excited.
"Tch—it's just a mere Five-Tribulation immortal artifact piece of clothing," Yu Wan'er pouted, but she still picked up a Four-Tribulation immortal artifact outfit.
[Pah! Idiot, idiot, huge idiot! Twenty Four-Tribulation immortal artifacts and twenty Five-Tribulation immortal artifacts. Aren't you just deliberately trying to start a fight? The relationship between us sisters is already like walking on thin ice on a normal day, you stupid donkey...]
Yu Wan'er frantically cursed Jiang Che in her heart.
Qin Qiaoqiao and the others weren't stupid either. They didn't care whether it was Four-Tribulation or Five-Tribulation; they directly left all the good stuff for the sisters who arrived later!
"Wow, these clothes are really nice."
Seeing that the girls all liked them, Jiang Che nodded. "Ahem... Next, your hubby has an announcement to make."
"It's regarding our Jiang family's family planning!"
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
