Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily-Chapter 222 - 220: Mr. Jin Yu

However, Song Changming had a vivid impression of this person dressed as a scholar.

He was the scholar who informed him of a good show when he single-handedly fought his way back to Donglai County City that year.

They hadn’t met since, but for some reason, this enigmatic person left a lasting impression on him.

So much so that now, upon seeing him again, he still remembered.

With his cultivation now deeper and strength more formidable, Song Changming found this person even more mysterious, and indeed with some abilities.

Not to mention anything else, but with his current perception, this person was able to perfectly evade his senses, silently approaching within a few meters of him.

This stealth and concealment skill was something even Song Changming admitted he couldn’t achieve.

"Yes, yes, it’s me, an old acquaintance..." The scholar wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looking at the Dragon Pattern Saber in Song Changming’s hand, seemingly still with lingering fear.

The Sword Qi that just slashed over was no simple feat...

"Can’t quite call us old acquaintances, can we? We only met that day by chance." Song Changming said indifferently.

The scholar chuckled, unconcerned by Song Changming’s distant tone, and continued speaking on his own.

"While you may be unfamiliar with me, I know you quite well. Seeing you again feels like reuniting with an old friend."

Song Changming found this quite baffling.

The scholar coughed gently and then smiled, saying, "Though it’s a bit late, let me introduce myself. I am Li Jinyu, commonly known as Mr. Jin Yu outside."

"Mr. Jin Yu." The name sounded somewhat familiar to Song Changming.

"The one from Zhuji Pavilion?"

"Precisely. Previously, others in the Pavilion didn’t recognize your strength and potential; only I knew Brother Song’s future was immeasurable, and I placed you at the top of the Earth List." Li Jinyu nodded with a smile.

Song Changming was speechless upon hearing this.

It was indeed this guy who was behind him suddenly being placed as number one on the Earth List.

"Now that I meet you, I feel even this rank is too low; Brother Song should be on the Celestial List!" As Li Jinyu spoke, he put away an iron stick in his hand.

"..."

Song Changming had also heard of Mr. Jin Yu from Zhuji Pavilion.

It’s said that Zhuji Pavilion housed several gifted individuals, claiming to possess godlike special skills.

Among them was Mr. Jin Yu before him.

Rumor has it he could read the stars and skies, knowing from astronomy to geography, predicting future events!

It’s even said he is a reincarnated Immortal God, hence understanding the mysterious methods of the Immortal Gods.

The rumors about Mr. Jin Yu from Zhuji Pavilion have become increasingly exaggerated.

Those who praised him almost believed him to be a True Immortal wandering the world.

Unexpectedly, he encountered such a mysterious person today.

No, if Mr. Jin Yu indeed had the ability to foresee the future, could it be that he initiated this encounter?

Thinking of this, Song Changming couldn’t help but look at him a few more times.

"No need to look at me like that. Today, I came here just to see this rare show, with no other intentions." As if able to read minds, Li Jinyu waved his hand, explaining upon sensing Song Changming’s thoughts.

"Last time, you seemed to say the same thing." Song Changming couldn’t help but say.

"Is that so? Brother Song indeed has a good memory." Li Jinyu smiled.

Seeing the other party without malice, Song Changming felt slightly at ease.

After all, there was no grudge between them, and today was essentially the first formal meeting.

At this moment, the far-off battle grew even more intense.

Again drawing the attention of both men.

"Sir, you mentioned she is the Vice Pavilion Master of Wangyue Pavilion, Fairy Yuehan?" While keeping an eye on the distant battle, Song Changming asked aloud.

"Correct." Li Jinyu nodded.

"No wonder..." Song Changming thought to himself.

Over the past two years, he had heard much about her master from Liu Yan’Er.

Namely, the Fairy Yuehan before him.

Although never seen in person, hearing enough made him aware of her immense abilities, holding a high position in Wangyue Pavilion, essentially the second-in-command.

Her formidable strength was ranked fifteenth on the latest Celestial List by Zhuji Pavilion!

To exhibit such astonishing strength was only to be expected.

"And this Corpse Puppet, can actually contend with Fairy Yuehan?" Song Changming, seeing Mr. Jin Yu’s knowledge, couldn’t help but humbly inquire.

"Yellow-eyed Corpse Puppet, the third-class Corpse Puppet of the Corpse Refining Sect, Vajra Indestructible and Water and Fire Immune. In the Corpse Refining Sect of the Outer Realm, this Yellow-eyed Corpse Puppet is almost the highest class.

Seems the Corpse Refining Sect didn’t just send nobodies this time, some true strong entities have come." Li Jinyu explained.

"The highest class, huh..." This was useful information to Song Changming.

Suddenly, he thought of something and tentatively asked, "Zhuji Pavilion claims to know all affairs under heaven. Sir, possessing significant abilities, I wonder if I could seek your help in investigating some past mysteries?"

At this moment, he was naturally thinking about the whereabouts of his elder brothers.

If Zhuji Pavilion indeed knew about this, it would save him considerable effort, as he could purchase information from them, avoiding extensive personal investigation.

However, Li Jinyu shook his head, saying, "Zhuji Pavilion does sell information, but it can’t indeed know all under heaven. I am no exception; although I know some little tricks, it’s impossible to grasp all the workings of everything.

Some Jianghu rumors are merely the exaggerations of Jianghu people..."

"Is that so..." Song Changming felt a bit disappointed, but after thinking, it seemed plausible.

After all, Zhuji Pavilion was just a Jianghu influence, not the Celestial Court where Immortals roamed freely; how could they truly be omniscient?

"But you could first mention what you wish to know, and perhaps I can help." Li Jinyu finally said.

The two continued to watch the distant battle, casually conversing.

"It’s an event from more than twenty years ago, related to the Corpse Refining Sect..." Song Changming elaborately summed up the incident of his elder brothers’ corpses being intercepted, and the information learned from Ding Yanyun.

Upon hearing this, Li Jinyu shook his head.

Such private, secret matters are truly difficult to verify.

Those who knew of it back then were likely few in number, let alone now.

"However, if there’s indeed potential to refine them into Green-eyed Corpse Puppets, it’s highly probable they’ve been sent to the main sect of the Corpse Refining Sect in the Ancient Abyss Country.

If you wish to uncover the truth, you’d have to go to the Ancient Abyss Country yourself. If the Corpse Puppets haven’t been destroyed, it shouldn’t be difficult to trace who possesses them, given the strength of the Green-eyed Corpse Puppets."

Li Jinyu said, rubbing his smooth chin.

"Using the method of reading the stars, can their whereabouts be determined?" Song Changming asked again.

Back when first meeting in Donglai County City, Li Jinyu behaved mysteriously, like a mystic.

The stargazing and divination weren’t just rumors; Li Jinyu initially mentioned them himself.

"It’s not that simple or convenient. At most, I can ’see’ some soon-to-happen major events, like this great fog approaching, gathering of heroes.

Finer matters remain vague and chaotic to me; I can’t discern specific results..." Li Jinyu explained patiently to Song Changming.

It was apparent that, for some reason, he showed significant respect toward Song Changming.

He was nearly saying everything he knew.

Song Changming, thinking thoroughly, said, "If my brothers’ transformed Corpse Puppets are involved in some upcoming major event, could their whereabouts be discovered?"

He didn’t understand the principles of stargazing and divination as described by Li Jinyu; he merely sought the feasibility within Li Jinyu’s explanation.

"Theoretically, yes, but there are two more preconditions." Li Jinyu nodded.

"First, your brothers must be above the Yellow-eyed Corpse Puppets to be visible to me. Second, I need to be in the Ancient Abyss Country to stargaze and divine; it’s too far here in Da Han...

Perhaps in the future, if you go to the Ancient Abyss Country, you could take me along. I long for the nation of origin; I could provide significant assistance, couldn’t I?"

"..." Song Changming felt there was truly no hope after hearing Li Jinyu’s words.

However, Li Jinyu seemed keenly interested in going to the Ancient Abyss Country, strongly desiring to travel with Song Changming in the future.
