Borrowing Lifespan for Immortality: I Slay the Cunning Immortals with Five Spirits

The immortal gates are wide open, but they don't accept seekers of immortality—they take the lifespans of mortals! In the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty, demonic cultivators sit in the court, and sects set up sacrificial altars. Every mortal, upon reaching thirty, must have five years of their lifespan extracted to pay respects to the "Immortal Venerable," and by old age, they are but white-haired skeletons at forty. Jiang Ming, the son of a frontier village head, watches his seriously ill father nearing the end of his life, and his young sister is singled out by the patrolling immortal envoy for "sacrificial lifespan extension." In desperation, his soul awakens, shattering the seal within his body, and he beholds the five directions of utmost purity divine spirits—the Five Spirits Soul of Warding off Evil! Geng Metal breaks sinister plots, Li Fire burns demonic souls, Xuan Water corrodes false immortals, Qing Wood seizes vitality, Wu Earth suppresses all evil! Slaying cunning creatures and seizing lifespans not only feeds back to skyrocket his own mana but also allows him to use the vitality of the Five Spirits to defy fate and add a hundred years to his parents and kin! When the lofty patrolling immortal envoy tramples through his thatched door, Jiang Ming rises with his blade: "You borrow life from heaven, I borrow your heads!" From slaying demons in the frontier to breaking through the nine-tiered immortal palaces, even a mortal body can, with the Five Spirits Soul, reopen the path of life and death in the human world! — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Borrowing Lifespan for Immortality: I Slay the Cunning Immortals with Five Spirits — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
