I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

”Hmm?”

Gu Yuan was immersed in the joy of refining the Azure Roaming Heaven-Evading Seal when he suddenly felt a sense of unease.

This unease came without reason, but the Three-Heart Gold Seal in his Dantian suddenly shone brightly. Gu Yuan felt an increase in his spirituality, as if he could perceive the Dao Principles of heaven and earth. Vaguely, he seemed to detect a strange spatial disturbance.

”What’s going on?”

The unease was extremely intense. Gu Yuan did not dare to be negligent. With a thought, his form suddenly transformed into flowing water. When he reappeared, he was already a hundred feet away.

”Whoosh!”

At that moment, a massive whistling sound suddenly echoed from the Void, as if some strange object had suddenly swung, shattering the Void and opening an endless door. A transparent portal suddenly appeared behind Gu Yuan.

”Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

Furthermore, a tremendous wind arose, directly enveloping Gu Yuan and propelling him forcefully toward that portal.

”Not good!”

This change happened too suddenly. Gu Yuan was caught off guard and had no time to react. He immediately exerted all his strength to activate the Azure Roaming Heaven-Evading Seal, preparing to use the Water Escape Technique to dodge once more.

”Boom!”

But at that moment, countless strange Array Banners lit up over the Great River. Subsequently, the power of the Water Vein within the entire Great River was mobilized. An indescribable Power of Imprisonment suddenly descended, suppressing all lifeforms below Golden Core within the Great River for an instant.

Then, fifteen portals suddenly lit up, accompanied by strange whistles and the sound of wind.

Gu Yuan’s expression froze, his thoughts ceased, and the light of the Azure Roaming Heaven-Evading Seal dimmed. The whole person flew uncontrollably towards that portal.

”Audacious, daring to touch my people!”

But at this moment, a cold voice rang out from the sky. Subsequently, a brilliant Sword Light broke the Void, arriving in an instant, slicing towards the portal in front of Gu Yuan.

At the same time, above the Great River, numerous brilliant Spiritual Light Artifacts also fell simultaneously, slicing towards those suddenly appearing peculiar portals.

”Hahaha, why get angry, everyone? Didn’t you want your disciples to be tested? I am fulfilling them!”

But from the depths of the Great River, a burst of hearty laughter suddenly emerged. Subsequently, a strange Treasure Fan rose into the sky, falling with boundless silver light, shattering the Void.

”Bang!”

The fifteen portals suddenly burst with light, carrying an extremely powerful Void Power. Countless chaotic currents roared, even the extremely strong Sword Qi could not instantly cut through them.

”Whoosh!”

Then fifteen figures were suddenly sucked into the portals, disappearing without a trace.

...

...

All of this happened too swiftly and unexpectedly. Even the Golden Core Ascendants aboard the Dharma Boat did not anticipate it.

If it were ordinary Artifacts, no matter how powerful, they could jointly resist for a moment. But this Void-Breaking Treasure broke the limitations of the Void, so stealthy and silent that by the time they reacted, it was already too late.

In the Daoist School, fifteen disciples were suddenly hurled into the Void and sent to unknown places.

”You seek death!”

A voice full of fury resonated from the heavens, and then an old man dressed in a Golden Robe, wielding a dazzling Golden Sword Seal, suddenly slashed towards the depths of the Great River.

Simultaneously, several other extremely profound figures aboard the Dharma Boat descended swiftly, all attacking towards the Great River.

”Boom!”

But at that moment, a massive Spiritual Light suddenly exploded, rising above the Great River.

This Spiritual Light was vast and boundless, sweeping across the Great River, endlessly surging. It was as if something terrifying had exploded. Water light filled the air, billowing waves roared continuously, and with terrible power, it swept in all directions.

Self-Destructive Array!

The Jade Water Fire-Eyed Ape tribe detonated the ”Great Essence Flow Array” they relied on for survival, sacrificing a Tier Three Spiritual Vein to create terrifying might.

Even Golden Core Cultivators, in the face of such an appalling explosion, would retreat temporarily, halting their advance.

”Trial by combat? Do you really think my Jade Water Fire-Eyed Ape tribe is your whetstone?”

”You want this Red Moon River, then take it, but there will be a price!”

Amidst the booming sounds, a thunder-like voice grew distant, eventually disappearing.

”Chase!”

The old man in the Golden Robe, enraged, transformed into light and pursued relentlessly.

The two other figures also followed swiftly.

But a cold figure instead turned and descended from the clouds, arriving at the domain of Celestial Wolf Island.

”Greetings, Ascendant!”

On Celestial Wolf Island, Ma Wu and others were already dumbfounded.

They had no idea what had happened. They only saw a vague portal appear in the Void, and then their Senior Brother Gu Yuan was rapidly sucked into it, disappearing thereafter.

Then, distant rumbles came, and an indescribable graceful figure descended from the clouds.

The Sword Fox Immortal did not pay attention to Ma Wu and others, merely took out a Golden Compass and came to the place in the Void where Gu Yuan had disappeared, softly chanting.

”Buzz, buzz, buzz!”

The Compass flickered continuously, with its needle trembling, as if searching for something.

”Buzz!”

After a while, the Compass suddenly stopped, pointing directly westward. However, perhaps due to the distance being too vast, the needle only pointed for a moment before it started rotating continuously, like a fly without a head.

”Alas...”

Seeing this, the Sword Fox Immortal couldn’t help but sigh, a trace of helplessness in her tone.

”May I ask, Ascendant, what has happened?”

Ma Wu, seeing this, was filled with anxiety and couldn’t help but ask.

”It’s merely the despicable tactics of the Jade Water Fire-Eyed Ape tribe. That Old Ape used a Void Treasure to plot against the disciples of the Daoist School who slayed his clansmen, sending fifteen people to different realms!”

”I searched for his aura with the Golden Disc, but it exceeded the limit, apparently over a hundred thousand miles away, known only to be toward the west.”

The Sword Fox Immortal shook her head, looking toward the distance.

”A hundred thousand miles away, can Senior Brother Gu still return?”

Ma Wu, hearing this, couldn’t help but be shocked.

They had barely clung to such a powerful figure, yet before they could reap any benefits, he disappeared just like that?

”The Void isn’t broken, so there shouldn’t be any danger to life. Whether he can return depends on his own fate...”

The Sword Fox Immortal shook her head gently.

Ma Wu and the others were immediately dejected.

”Since you are his Foundation Establishment disciples, there’s some connection with me. Once the matter of the Red Moon River is settled, you may move your Spirit Island to cultivate around my Jade Pot Peak...”

The Sword Fox Immortal glanced over Ma Wu and the others, hesitated slightly, but finally spoke.

”Thank you, Ascendant!”

”Thank you, Ascendant!”

Jiang Ningxue and Xie Chengping were calm, but Ma Wu and others were overjoyed, unable to resist expressing their gratitude.

They had long heard of the deep connection between Senior Brother Gu and the Sword Fox Immortal. Now it seemed the rumors were true, maybe even underestimated!

If not because of Gu Yuan, with their mediocre talents, how could they possibly gain the ascendant’s favor and acquire such a significant backer?

”You may come under my tutelage and listen to my teachings!”

Just then, the Sword Fox Immortal unexpectedly glanced at Jiang Ningxue and then added.

Jiang Ningxue was stunned, but she dared not refuse in the slightest, only bowing in thanks: ”Thank you, Ascendant!”

The Sword Fox Immortal nodded slightly, then her figure flickered and disappeared.

On Celestial Wolf Island, Ma Wu and others remained, but Gu Yuan had vanished without a trace.
