I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

In the distance, there is a mountain peak, covered with red mist, resembling a burning fire.

On top of the mountain, strange rocks are rugged, stacked like scales, from afar, it looks like a giant red snake tightly wrapping around the entire mountain peak.

At the top of the mountain, there is a palace made of ”Crimson Jade”, inside the palace are nine hundred and ninety-nine candles that burn year-round, releasing streaks of red candle clouds, enveloping the dozen or so spiritual tablets and several golden soul lamps within the hall.

In the hall, a boy of about ten years old, dressed in a red Lotus Daoist Robe, holding a Jade Ruyi, is dozing off on a meditation mat.

”Crack!”

Suddenly, a crisp sound came from within the hall, startling the boy awake.

The boy rubbed his eyes, still somewhat confused, but suddenly recalling something, he leaped up as if struck by lightning, showing an incredulous expression on his face.

He looked up, only to see under the solemn spiritual tablets, a red gilded soul lamp, its wick broken, the candle flame suddenly extinguished, the light fading.

”This is... Senior Brother Lin Shan’s soul lamp?!!!”

The boy’s mouth opened wide, as if able to fit a duck egg, showing an expression of disbelief.

”Clang clang clang!”

The boy shuddered, immediately rang the golden bell in the main hall.

”Boom!”

The golden bell had just sounded when a vast and boundless Divine Thought suddenly arrived.

”Sect Leader!”

The boy trembled all over, immediately prostrating on the ground.

In the middle of the main hall, at some unknown time, there was already an old man with a head full of silver hair, a resolute face, exuding an intimidating presence without anger.

In his eyes, there was an overflowing Golden Fire, like a Great Sun, shining brightly, making it difficult for anyone to look directly at him.

”Such audacity!”

”Even dare to kill my direct grandson!”

”Azure Firmament and Yellow Springs, you must die beyond doubt!”

Purple Pill Fire suddenly rose from the old man’s body, seemingly wanting to burn the void, manifesting his wrath.

His own direct grandson, possessing a Nine-Aperture Body, on whom he placed high hopes, with a glimmer of hope to achieve Golden Core, unexpectedly perished, the soul lamp extinguished.

”I have my Spiritual Artifact protecting him, and Lux Mingqiu performing protective duties, who can kill Shan’er? Could it be a Golden Core making a move?”

Although furious, the old man had cultivated for many years and remained extraordinarily calm.

”Seek!”

He waved his hand, and a three-foot Jade Mirror suddenly appeared, releasing a golden beam of light, falling on the broken soul lamp.

”Swish!”

The Jade Mirror quivered slightly, a Profound Mystery power surged continuously, eventually projecting a golden trail on the mirror, pointing distantly toward a city.

”Near Ten Thousand Laws City?”

”Why did Shan’er fall here?”

The old man’s brows furrowed, yet in the next moment, his figure vanished.

The boy waited for a long time, confirming the Sect Leader was no longer in the hall, then let out a long breath, lifting his head, his forehead already drenched in cold sweat.

The Sect Leader of our own sect, is not an easy one to deal with. If he had been provoked, I might also not escape death today.

”The Young Sect Master is dead?”

”This is indeed significant news. If those few find out, the Fire Cloud Sect is bound to stir up a storm again...”

The boy pondered for a moment, then stealthily walked out of the hall.

The death of the Young Sect Master is bad news for the Sect Leader, but not necessarily for us.

...

...

”Dang!”

The clear sound of a bell rang out in Ten Thousand Laws City, the sound melodious, lingering endlessly.

”Boom!”

At the same time, in the largest Jade Plaza within the hall, three hundred and sixty-eight strange Jade Pillars suddenly rose, countless dazzling Array Patterns, shining brilliantly, intertwining with each other, finally forming an extremely complex and dizzying Grand Array.

Tier Three Top Array, Void Shifting Array!

This array reaches the pinnacle of Profound Mystery, requiring three Golden Cores to make a move simultaneously, in addition to a Tier Three Array Master, polishing Tier Three Treasures, and a Void Escape Stone, to successfully arrange.

But fortunately, once arranged successfully, it does not require a Golden Core to oversee, as long as the procedures are followed, a Tier Two Foundation Establishment Array Master can also control this array.

However, each activation requires one hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

”Everyone, please take your talismans and quickly take your positions!”

An old man with white hair, but with eyes full of spirit, was seated among the three hundred and sixty-eight Jade Pillars, shouting toward the distance.

Among the three hundred and sixty-eight Jade Pillars, there were twenty-eight silver disks, meaning twenty-eight people could be teleported at once.

Upon hearing this, many cultivators quickly took up their talismans, flying toward the silver disks.

”Steward Lin, sorry to trouble you this time!”

On top of the Jade Pillars, a red-haired young man took out a Storage Bag, discreetly handing it to a chubby old man.

”Young Sect Master, you’re too kind. It’s merely an earlier teleportation to the South Mountain Domain, what complaints could these Loose Cultivators have?”

The old man received the Storage Bag, and upon seeing the two Earth Demon Corpses and a thousand Spirit Stones inside, his smile grew even wider.

Originally, according to the rules, the teleportation array generally transported first to the Central Land Divine State, then East Mountain Realm, South Mountain Domain, and North Sea Realm.

But the rules are dead, and people are alive.

Today is an extra teleportation in the Year of the Awakening, not the departure day of the Dao Origin Sect’s ten-year cycle ”Sect Trading Team”, so there aren’t as many rules, naturally allowing for manipulation.

”When you come to my Fire Cloud Sect, we’ll drink to our heart’s content!”

The red-haired young man said with a smile.

”Sure, sure!”

Steward Lin said with a kindly smile.

”I’ll go ahead then!”

After a simple exchange of pleasantries, the red-haired young man’s Escape Light rose, flying toward the silver disk.

Following him, a man and a woman, two ”followers” kept pace and trailed behind.

”Rise!”

Once everyone was in position, at the center of the Jade Pillars, the elderly Tier Two Array Master lightly shouted.

In his eyes, there was a silver-white hue, a dense Power of Space surged from the three hundred and sixty-eight Jade Pillars, the space trembled, faintly revealing a transparent portal.

”Boom!”

At this moment, high above the Scorpio Mountain Range in the distance, a red stream of light, with the full sky of clouds, was speeding toward them.

Its Escape Light far exceeded that of any Foundation Establishment Cultivator, not even any Spiritual Artifact could compare to this speed, resembling lightning, traversing a thousand miles in an instant.

”Elder Red Mist!”

”Flying so grandiosely over our Scorpio Mountain Range, could it be that you don’t take us seriously at all!”

Seeing the red mist filling the sky, stream lights like electricity, a loud laugh suddenly sounded within the Scorpio Mountain Range, following which a pair of heaven-covering wings were fiercely extended, heading toward the red mist filling the sky.

”Fellow Daoist Xuan Yu, why entangle, the old Daoist has urgent matters today!”

But that red mist filling the sky only wavered slightly and crossed over space, directly traversing the Scorpio Mountain Range, heading straight for Ten Thousand Laws City.

”Hahaha, the more urgent your matters, the more I need to entangle, otherwise won’t it be letting you off easy!”

The laughter resonated like thunder, a power of Profound Ice, difficult to describe, suddenly shot out, freezing the clouds in the sky for a moment.

Within Ten Thousand Laws City, an abundant Divine Sense surged, seemingly awakened, looking at the entire city and distantly.

The Void Shifting Array was among them.

”Huh?”

Vaguely, a voice of surprise seemed to ring out.

Gu Yuan and the three, their expressions all changed, their hearts in fear.

”Buzz!”

But at this moment, the portal of the void had already opened wide, a dazzling array light suddenly shone, enveloping everyone.

”Fellow Daoist Yunxi, please hold this array, I will reward you generously afterward!”

The dense Power of Space could be clearly sensed even hundreds of miles away, the distant Master Red Mist seemed to understand something, using Secret Technique to transmit a voice, reaching the ears of Golden Core cultivators within the city.

But the Divine Sense in Ten Thousand Laws City hesitated for a moment, ultimately making no move, allowing the array to activate, taking everyone away to vanish.

”Damn it!”

Master Red Mist’s face showed great anger, but unfortunately, his reach was beyond his grasp as twenty-eight figures in Ten Thousand Laws City had already disappeared.
