Chapter 748: The First Immortal (1)

Jiang Li held his head. The faint shadow of the old man had made him suffer a little.
The other party’s mental methods were very powerful. He caught Jiang Li off guard and directly blew up Alfred’s soul.
Jiang Li, who had allowed the power of his Essence Soul to enter deep into it to search the soul, also suffered a considerable shock.
Fortunately, he had never relaxed in his cultivation. He obtained the Nine Nether Earth Fruit in time and did not use it to increase his cultivation.
Every step on the path of cultivation was incomparably solid. His Dao Foundation was stable and his Essence Soul was powerful. He also had the merit runes of the human race to protect his body.
He had only suffered a small injury.
With the help of many statuses, he recovered to his original state in a breath.
Jiang Li casually wiped away the blood, and a sword light flashed between his brows. In an instant, he completely dissected the corpse that had fallen to the ground, splitting it into countless small pieces.
This was not to vent his anger but to guard against any backup plans.
Energy scattered in all directions. The corpse that was about to self-destruct no longer had any chance.
After searching through the fragments a few times, he only found a gray and simple pearl.
He looked up and used appraisal.
“Longevity Seed? What is this?”
The other attributes were all question marks.
He squeezed it. This thing was neither metal, jade, wood, nor stone. It was impossible to tell its origins.
Jiang Li could only speculate from the name that this pearl might be related to these fellows’ talent in longevity.
“Who are you guys?”
The more he knew about these fellows, the more vigilant Jiang Li became.
Why were a group of people with long lives and powerful strength gathered together? What were they trying to do?
Destroy the world? Or become the Ruler of the Nine Provinces?
Alfred was clearly not very famous among the people with longevity.
The images that appeared in his memories were mostly transmitting information and receiving orders.
The only important things he knew had been tampered with.
Once it was touched by an external force, it would directly explode and destroy all the secrets it knew.
However, from the words he saw, Jiang Li guessed that this was probably a terrifying organization that had existed since ancient times.
In the Cultivationless Age, the stronger one was, the more targeted they were. Immortals and Buddhas could not survive that kind of calamity.
One could tell from the reincarnation of Ksitigarbha.
Even if the other mighty figures did not completely die, there would at most be a few left.
Moreover, they could barely appear eight thousand years after the spiritual qi recovery.
It was impossible to be active at the beginning of the spiritual qi recovery.
However, if it was not an Immortal or God, who could have the ability to play such a huge game?
“City Lord, what should we do now?”
The Golden Duke, who was still holding his chest, had already dealt with those crazy prisoners and returned to Jiang Li’s side.
“They already know my identity.”
“Next, you will be the Golden Duke and continue to organize the Royal Court’s forces to resist the flesh calamity.”
“We’ll talk about everything after we gather all the farm humans.”
Jiang Li had left him a large number of Nine Nether Earth Fruits.
As for how to organize the power of the Royal Court, the Golden Duke knew very well.
The current situation in the Prosperous Ox Continent was two sides.
On the surface, the flesh and blood calamity wreaked havoc, and the Armored Troll Court desperately stopped it.
However, with the Golden Duke holding them back and their race being countered, if nothing unexpected happened, the Armored Trolls would be defeated sooner or later.
In the shadows, Fengdu City and the Immortals floated in the Royal Court to carry out their plans.
Both sides looked at each other and already knew a little about the other party.
However, they still tacitly maintained their restraint.
Jiang Li temporarily needed a relatively stable Royal Court to gather farms and save as many humans of the Prosperous Ox Continent as possible.
The people with longevity had prepared for many years and clearly had their own plans.
For their own goal, the two sides did not fall out.
If they were exposed to the Armored Troll Court together, who knew how chaotic it would be?
However, he still had to take precautions.
He got the shadow to follow the Golden Duke closely to guard against any more assassinations.
As for the Fengdu City Lord, he still had a big guy to deal with!
…
If Jiang Li’s appraisal was not wrong, this flying ship was built with the bones of the ancient Immortal Demon, Kun Peng.
It was the Kun Peng that had made a name for itself in the stories of his previous life.
With that mighty figure’s ability, it was not strange for its bones to have lasted from ancient times to today.
Jiang Li also wanted to continue building this Northern Dark Ark and complete the incomplete artifact left behind by a certain Armored Troll King.
At that time, once a dignified Heaven-rank artifact appeared, just relying on its huge body, one of the Nine Provinces would probably tremble three times.
However, after carefully investigating the interior of the entire Northern Dark Ark, Jiang Li discovered that he was still a little too naive.
After the Ark lost its awakening talent, it was considered useless.
That King had invested a huge amount of resources. Be it the Kun Peng or the three million Armored Trolls, they were all treasures that were difficult to find in the world.
It was difficult to not make something good with them together.
However, it turned out that the technology was not good enough.
Using so many good things to build this ark was really a headache.
