With only 8 years to live at the start, I'm going all in.

Chapter 350 An Unexpected Perfection

Ding Yi looked at the white paper in his hand, but his expression quickly returned to calm.

Based on his experience, if there was nothing wrong with the Dao Seed within Ji Huanxue's body, it would only make him more uneasy.

At that moment, a flash of light appeared in Ding Yi's hand, and the white paper turned into a cloud of ashes and disappeared completely.

One day later, at Biyou Palace, in the Taichu Hall.

Ding Yi and Ji Huanxue stood inside the hall, looking at a blue orb of light floating in the air, both remaining silent.

This cyan orb, about the size of a football, had subtle white light and shadow on its surface, making it look like a small planet floating in the air.

"This is the Evergreen variety?"

Ding Yi looked at the ball of light in front of him and asked Ji Huanxue beside him.

"Indeed, Immortal Master, this is the purpose of my descent to the mortal realm."

"I've heard that this Evergreen Seed contains a lot of energy and is one of the key steps to reviving the Evergreen Ancestor."

Ji Huanxue quickly replied.

"A lot of energy?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yi raised an eyebrow.

If this thing is a condensed form of malevolent energy, wouldn't I gain a huge boost in lifespan?

However, this Evergreen Seed is quite cunning. Although it looks harmless, there might be some hidden tricks inside.

Thinking of this, Ding Yi stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, then said to Ji Huanxue:

"Go, take it off following the normal procedure."

Upon hearing this, Ji Huanxue quickly responded and walked towards the evergreen seed. She then stood in front of the cyan light sphere and made a hand seal.

The next moment, a large amount of cyan light and shadow emanated from Ji Huanxue's body, transforming into cyan arms in the air, grabbing down at the Evergreen Seed from all directions.

Just as these arms were about to touch the Evergreen, they quickly lifted it up and slowly pulled it out of the void.

During this process, the evergreen plant continued to shrink until it was only the size of a peach pit.

Ji Huanxue looked at the Evergreen Seed so close to her with a serious expression. Then, the hand seals in her hands changed again, and countless runes flew out from the blue palm that was floating in the air, imprinting themselves on the Evergreen Seed little by little.

Soon, the light on the evergreen plant's exterior gradually faded, eventually turning into a gray hard core that floated into Ji Huanxue's hand.

Ji Huanxue pinched the gray seed core between two fingers, quickly walked up to Ding Yi, and said:

“Master Immortal, this is the Evergreen variety.”

Ding Yi looked at the gray object in Ji Huanxue's hand, but didn't immediately take it. Instead, he slowly said:

"Keep it with you for now."

Although Ji Huanxue didn't understand why, she still put the gray seed into her bosom. Then Ding Yi suddenly asked again:

"What is the relationship between the power you belong to in the upper realm and the Immortal Alliance?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Huanxue said:

"The sect I belong to is called Taichu Sect, a secluded sect. Although it is within the jurisdiction of the Immortal Alliance, it does not belong to any palace."

"The Primordial Beginning Sect has resurrected the Green Dao Ancestor, who is the mortal enemy of all the Divine Palaces. Therefore, once the Primordial Beginning Sect is exposed, it will suffer annihilation."

Ji Huanxue explained slowly.

Upon hearing this, Ding Yi understood.

To put it bluntly, this so-called Primordial Gate is a fanatical follower of Changqingzi, and all the things that resurrected Changqingzi were secretly planned by this gate.

This so-called Immortal Alliance is clearly Changqingzi's mortal enemy.

Although Changqingzi was once the master of the 108 Divine Palaces, it is clear that something major must have happened to make the two sides so sworn enemies.

Upon realizing this, a sinister smile appeared on Ding Yi's face.

Changqingzi, you started this dirty trick, so don't blame me for being ruthless now!

This evergreen looks like a good thing. If you don't want to give it to me, then just jump out and refuse me now!

One breath, that's enough. You didn't come out, so this thing is mine!

Thinking of this, Ding Yi first had Ji Huanxue turn her back, then took out the prepared white paper and brush from his pocket and quickly wrote down the entry "Method to break the hidden trap of the Evergreen Species".

But this time, Ding Yi was surprised to find that no prompt appeared.

"Ah."

Ding Yi raised an eyebrow, immediately feeling somewhat surprised. He then discreetly shook the white paper in his hand into powder and called out to Ji Huanxue:

"Alright, let me see that thing."

Although Ji Huanxue didn't understand why, she subconsciously obeyed Ding Yi's orders.

She turned around, took out the Evergreen Seed from her bosom, and handed it to Ding Yi.

Ding Yi took the walnut-like object, played with it in his hand for a while, and then silently began to circulate the Exorcism Technique.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths.

To Ding Yi's surprise, the technique of exorcising evil spirits had no effect, and no prompts appeared before his eyes.

"It's not made of malevolent energy?"

Ding Yi frowned, and then he began to pace slightly inside the hall.

After a short while, Ding Yi seemed to remember something, and then the Evergreen True Qi in his body surged into his palm, enveloping the Evergreen Seed.

And just like that, that drab gray thing finally changed.

A beam of emerald green light surged continuously from the Evergreen Seed, then surged wildly into Ding Yi's palm.

Ding Yi was suddenly jolted awake as the surrounding scenery rapidly changed, instantly transforming from the dark hall into a brightly lit forest.

At this moment, Ding Yi was surrounded by towering trees, with beams of light falling between the tall canopies, creating the Tyndall effect.

"Holy crap."

Ding Yi stood there, looking at the scene before him in shock, muttering to himself.

Clearly, this is no longer an effect that a domain can produce; it's more like a powerful supernatural ability similar to teleportation.

"Damn it, thank goodness I tested it out earlier, otherwise I would be panicking right now."

Ding Yi looked around and then took a step.

As he took a step, the surrounding trees seemed to come alive, emitting soft cries.

"Chang Qingzi, you've arrived?"

"Chang Qingzi, you've arrived?"

These eerie sounds rushed into Ding Yi's mind. Just as Ding Yi was stunned, strands of blue silk threads suddenly spread out from the tree trunks and entered Ding Yi's body.

"Here's your stuff back. We're even now."

One voice after another entered Ding Yi's mind, and then Ding Yi felt the Evergreen Spiritual Qi in his body begin to stir wildly.

"My grass!"

As Ding Yi felt the unusually surging energy within his body, still unaware of what was happening, a notification suddenly appeared before his eyes.

Your Evergreen Skill has reached its peak.

Your lifespan will increase by 500 years.
