I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

The Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman’s actions were swift and surprising to everyone watching.

It wasn’t the speed at which the Thunder Flood Dragon seized the Spiritual Pillar that shocked them, but rather how ”easily persuaded” it seemed by the Gua Daoist.

At their level of cultivation, few lacked wisdom. Although the Gua Daoist had provided the Jade Scroll and information, everyone remained skeptical, opting to verify things with their own exploration arts after entering the Secret Realm.

Only then would they dare to navigate the Secret Realm.

They did not fully trust the Gua Daoist.

Even upon reaching Treasure Burial Lake, they each showcased their divine powers, conducting their own initial investigations before finally heeding the Gua Daoist’s suggestion to join forces.

Never did they expect that the Thunder Flood Dragon would dare to venture onto this so-called ”Evil-avoiding Magical Pillar” based on a few words from the Gua Daoist, thus leaving the Treasure Boat.

Everyone knew that although the wandering Soldier Souls had dispersed, guarding by the side of the treasure light, the Yin Evil flowed like water, still churning endlessly. The Power of Illusion within was a vast terror, indeed the Power of Heaven-Earth, not something a Mid-Stage Golden Core could casually breach.

Yet everyone remained silent, neither stopping him nor interfering, merely observing quietly.

If someone was willing to take the lead, that was naturally favorable.

Gu Yuan, too, looked on without hindrance.

But in his heart, he vaguely comprehended that the Gua Daoist’s words might not be entirely baseless.

Because there was indeed an opportunity hidden within this Treasure Burial Lake.

The silver opportunity of the word ”Artifact” shown in the Stone Liquid was concealed within this Treasure Burial Lake, though not in the treasure light before them.

Since it wasn’t where the true opportunity lay, Gu Yuan wasn’t in a rush, watching the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman’s ”performance” with calm composure.

On the Treasure Boat, everyone harbored different thoughts.

While outside the Treasure Boat, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman was also inwardly sneering.

He wasn’t a fool and naturally understood that the others on the boat refrained from stopping him because they wanted him to play the ”pioneer.”

But he had his own reasons for acting as he did.

Having roamed the Great Marsh for centuries, having gathered numerous followers, he was well-informed about various Secret Realm details in the Great Marsh. Although not as detailed as the Gua Daoist’s knowledge, he had unexpectedly obtained a piece of secret information about Treasure Burial Lake.

Yin Evil Lake Eyes, nurturing six treasures.

He previously didn’t quite grasp the meaning, but seeing the spiritual light of this Evil Eye and the Evil-avoiding Magical Pillar on the Treasure Boat, he understood completely.

This was a trial of the Spirit Treasure Sect!

Six Evil Eyes, each with an opportunity.

They were prepared for the trial disciples of the Spirit Treasure Sect.

No one on this Treasure Boat was easy to deal with, and he wasn’t confident about contending for subsequent Evil Eyes.

However, this first Evil Eye was his chance.

The bold and daring ought to receive the blessings of Heaven and Earth.

Seizing this first opportunity might strengthen him enough to contend for future opportunities as well.

Multiple gains with a single move!

With this thought in mind, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman had already left the Treasure Boat, clad in a Golden Magical Robe, standing atop the lake.

Despite his plans, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman remained cautious, his demonic power surged, revealing scale armor pieces floating around him, covering his skin, with dragon horns emerging above his head and layers of thunder constantly rippling around him, protecting him.

With his strength, although he couldn’t traverse the entire Treasure Burial Lake, he could certainly endure a while in its waters.

In the worst-case scenario, he could still retreat to the Treasure Boat.

”Boom rumble!”

As the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman exited the Treasure Boat, the Yin Evil around Treasure Burial Lake surged like sharks scenting blood, crazily enveloping him with speed.

The Yin Evil was dense, like a churning river, akin to an avalanche, producing rumbling sounds.

”Boom!”

But the golden treasure on the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman shone radiantly, sending massive golden light skyward, akin to a beacon, dispersing countless Yin Evil like snow under a warm sun upon contact.

The Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman, wearing his Golden Magical Robe, stood steadfast on the water like a golden rock, unwavering amidst the surging tides of Yin Evil.

”Hahaha!”

”Everyone, Lei will go ahead!”

Seeing this, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman couldn’t help but laugh heartily, filled with utmost pride.

Indeed, this was the reward for bravery.

Upon witnessing the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman safely advancing, clothed in golden robes like a divine spirit, making his way towards the treasure light guarded by Soldier Souls, the bearded strong man’s face turned grim.

Hardly believing that this flood dragon truly gained the upper hand!

The others also gazed over, eager to see whether the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman could seize the opportunity.

Even the Gua Daoist watched intently without blinking.

The Divination Technique faced significant limitations at this lake, leaving him to rely solely on experience.

Only Gu Yuan remained calm, merely observing the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman with curiosity.

He was confident that the treasure light contained no opportunity but was curious to know the exact contents, using the dragon for exploration.

At this moment, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman had already traversed layers of Yin Evil, arriving three zhang from the treasure light.

Though the treasure light was hazy, obscuring the inner shape, his Divine Sense and detection techniques were further clouded by Yin Evil and Soldier Souls, making them indistinct.

As the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman advanced, streams of Soldier Souls reached out, frantically assaulting him, attempting to devour him.

”Mere Soldier Souls cannot stop my Thunder Technique!”

With this declaration, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman roared in anger, lightning pouring from his seven orifices, transforming into countless thunder snakes that coiled around him, his entire being seeming to turn into a Thunder Body, brilliantly dazzling.

The approaching Soldier Souls, upon nearing, were instantly blasted into dust by the thunder, dissipating as green smoke.
