I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Before coming here, Master Moon Bamboo had never explicitly stated what kind of divine thunder this place held, only assuring Gu Yuan that he would not be disappointed.

Gu Yuan initially didn’t pay much heed, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be quite a surprise.

What he was cultivating was the Great Thunder Origin Celestial Scripture, excelling in thunder techniques, and he was knowledgeable about the exotic divine thunders known across the world.

Most of the divine thunders in the world are awe-inspiring, their thunderous light blinding to the eyes, visible from afar, acting as anomalies in the heavens and earth.

Yet there is one kind of divine thunder that is shapeless and formless, invisible to the naked eye, inaudible to the ears. Though no thunder is seen, once approached, the thunder explodes directly in the core of the heart, and with the slightest carelessness, there is the risk of the divine soul being shattered and obliterated, making it the most bizarre.

The gorge before him was silent and soundless, seemingly calm and tranquil, yet inside, the thunder never ceased to flash, and if a Golden Core Cultivator were to fall into its depths, even their soul would be scattered!

It was precisely the Radiant Heart Gang Thunder!

”Fellow Daoist Ge, you’re truly fortunate to have found this treasured land!”

Gu Yuan turned back to look at Master Ge Yun, unable to suppress a long sigh.

No wonder a Tier Three Mountain Protection Stone was used to guard the Cave Mansion; he was quite moved by this Thunder Valley.

If one who cultivates thunder techniques were to cultivate here, they would undoubtedly achieve twice the result with half the effort.

”This mere Thunder Valley, how could it compare to the thousands of miles of Spirit River at Cyan Peak Daoist School?”

Daoist Ge Yun stroked his beard with a smile, yet his eyes were filled with pride.

This Thunder Valley, for hundreds of years, had brought him endless profits, a treasure land worth more than gold!

The main reason he painstakingly cultivated the wood puppet was to protect this gorge.

Wealth and riches truly move the heart!

But it was all worth it, just like the Master Donghua from Cyan Peak Daoist School before him, who offered a Lifebound Demon Artifact of a Great Demon just to absorb the thunder for three months.

That demon artifact, with a bit of refinement and cultivation, could grow into a Toxic Wood with Tier Three poison properties, further augmenting his methods.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but smile.

”Fellow Daoist Donghua, the period is three months; within these three months you may absorb the thunder, but once three months pass, you must not enter the Thunder Valley again!”

When it came to business, Master Ge Yun’s expression grew more solemn.

”That’s only natural!”

Gu Yuan nodded.

Upon hearing Gu Yuan’s assurance, Master Ge Yun’s expression relaxed, and he further advised:

”To be honest, Fellow Daoist, my true self was nurtured by the Thunder Valley, which led to my birth of spiritual wisdom and comprehension of the cultivation path.”

”However, the Thunder Valley is deep; with the abilities of an early-stage Golden Core cultivator, one can only penetrate fifty feet, beyond which the thunder is exceedingly fierce, directly striking the divine soul, impossible to guard against. Please be extremely cautious and do not venture too deep!”

Master Ge Yun’s expression was extremely serious, clearly having suffered significant losses.

”Thank you for the warning, Fellow Daoist!”

Gu Yuan nodded and cupped his hands in gratitude.

”Always be cautious; should anything arise, use the Thunder Talisman to summon me!”

”I won’t disturb your cultivation any longer!”

It was evident that Master Ge Yun wasn’t hosting someone in Thunder Valley for the first time. He handed Gu Yuan a black wooden token, then took off on his Escape Light, leaving the place.

The spiritual light of the millennium-old Thunderwood on the cliff seemed to depart along with him.

Gu Yuan watched him leave, then took steps forward, slowly approaching the gorge.

The gorge was eerily silent, not even a hint of sound, making one wonder if a great maw had swallowed all the world’s sounds.

But just a little approach to the gorge, and a tremendous hum could be felt.

The sound was inaudible to the ears, yet it reverberated directly within the spirit, causing one’s thoughts to tremble.

”Radiant Heart Gang Thunder, with this thunder, the Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl becomes a true artifact...”

Gu Yuan gazed at the deep, silent gorge, his heart stirring as he tossed a crystalline Treasure Pearl from his sleeve.

The pearl had six apertures, with weak lightning flickering within, appearing feeble and listless.

But upon seeing the gorge, the entire pearl instantly shone brightly, with a powerful suction emerging from the six holes, eager to devour something.

”Go!”

Gu Yuan did not suppress the Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl. With a wave of his sleeve, the Wind Thunder Pearl let out a whoop and flew towards the gorge.

If any soul-possessing creature entered, it would immediately suffer the mad onslaught of the Radiant Heart Gang Thunder. Even a puppet substitute, if attached with a ”living thought,” would be struck.

Yet as the Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl fell within, it was unharmed, with a tremendous suction emerging from its six tiny apertures, like a Dragon Whale drinking water, beginning to madly absorb the invisible thunder within the gorge.

”Zizi!”

The Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl suddenly shone brightly, silent thunderlight growing within the six apertures.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan took a step forward, standing in mid-air above the gorge, feeling as if the thunder in his heart had greatly diminished, the world becoming clear.

The Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl was a secret treasure of the Thundercloud Sect, refined by Master Xuan Guang, becoming a genuine artifact. Previously it hadn’t shown much power, its presence nearly negligible, mainly because it hadn’t undergone a true ”charge.”

Now, this gorge was the best ”charging station.”

In an instant, the invisible thunderlight within several feet was absorbed completely.

”Whoosh!”

Yet the Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl remained insatiable, flying continuously towards the depths of the gorge.

Wherever it passed, the Radiant Heart Gang Thunder was forcibly absorbed into the pearl.

Though the Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl’s power wasn’t strong, it served as an extremely powerful ”charger,” capable of replicating the might of the heavens and earth.

Gu Yuan followed behind the Vortex Wind Thunder Pearl, slowly advancing.
