I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

All around the golden lotus platform, numerous Golden Core cultivators remained silent.

With a sword that could slay the Celestial Abyss, the power cultivated through the Soul Dao suppressed Sunx Fashan, and now this never-before-seen Capture Technique almost managed to crush Master Zangyue to death, despite his unbreakable flying sword and Primordial Magnetic Golden Bone.

Just how many techniques does Master Feiyu have?

Dozens of Golden Core cultivators in the field all had this question in mind.

Even Master of Three Words from the Divine Will Sect and Master Yangping from the Celestial Heart Sect furrowed their brows and hesitated.

If it were during a chaotic battle, they would charge forward together, but this was the Celestial Abyss Dharma Assembly. The opponent, holding a giant hand seal suspended in the sky, commanded awe from everyone and was already seated on the lotus throne, with mana soon to be restored. Who was confident enough to defeat him?

Those who came to the Celestial Abyss Dharma Assembly were talents of their own domain and harbored hidden cards.

Yet after observing these two matches, their confidence was nearly shattered.

Faced with such sword light, soul power, and hand seal, was there any chance of victory?

Though they were Golden Core cultivators, living for a thousand years, driven by fame and fortune, they were ultimately not impulsive youths with their own calculations.

Because of this, the field remained silent for a moment.

However, the cloud platform was much livelier.

”What superb skill, what superb skill!”

”Who would have thought Master Feiyu would possess such methods? Is this using another’s method against them? That Capture Seal is terrifying; it nearly crushed Master Zangyue to death with sheer qi power, so fierce, so fierce!”

”The decline of Power Dao has its reasons. Master Feiyu’s Capture Seal, based solely on qi power, surpasses Master Zangyue’s centuries of hard work, arriving at such profoundness with just one seal.”

”We Dharma Dao cultivators, controlling Yin-Yang and the Five Elements, naturally possess boundless power. Still, do not underestimate the Power Dao cultivators. Master Feiyu’s victory stems from his profound mana, far exceeding the mundane. Who knows how long he has honed this, the painstaking effort surely rivals Master Zangyue!”

Those spending the cost to come and witness the battle have some prestige and deep-rooted knowledge, discussing in earnest and accurately grasping some essence.

And on the cloud chariot, the late-stage Golden Core great cultivators had even sharper eyes.

Someone couldn’t help but glance at the Three-headed Infant Fox and ask, ”Fellow Daoist Qiuu, where did you find this Master Feiyu? Both his soul power and mana are of the highest rank, unmatched for thousands of years. Which Spirit Peak did he cultivate on?”

The Three-headed Infant Fox laughed heartily upon hearing this, ”Little Friend Feiyu naturally cultivated on Spirit Mountain Miao Peak, an Immortal Land, not inferior to the Major Sect of ten thousand years!”

Truthfully, the Three-headed Infant Fox had high hopes for Gu Yuan and deeply trusted him, especially since this fierce figure managed to slay several Golden Core cultivators from Major Sect in the Spirit Treasure Cliff Secret Realm with merely a few strands of Gold-Attribute Magical Power.

But seeing his prowess today, he was nevertheless deeply impressed.

Without transforming into an anomaly, commanding the Thousand-Li Spirit Qi, who could rival this individual?

Both Golden Core cultivators from the Major Sect of East Mountain Realm were defeated by him; this level of strength was truly frightening.

Though thrilled, he was also somewhat worried.

The tallest trees endure the strongest winds.

Sure enough, questions began on the cloud chariot.

Undoubtedly, most harbored malicious intentions.

And it was at this moment that he was even more startled by Gu Yuan’s actions.

This application of the Illusionary Form Technique was remarkably apt, saving much trouble.

But after all, this was the headquarters of the Yunji Sect, with many Major Sect Golden Core cultivators present, some capable of uncovering Gu Yuan’s whereabouts, so when questioned, he deliberately hinted ambiguously, ”Not inferior to the Major Sect of ten thousand years.”

This was a subtle suggestion that Master Feiyu was not without foundation, cautioning those with evil designs to act prudently.

Yet the true details of Gu Yuan were not revealed.

Just from this statement, it could be seen that the Three-headed Infant Fox’s emotions at this moment were both excited and complicated, fearing unforeseen events.

”Not inferior to the Major Sect of ten thousand years?”

Upon hearing these words from the Three-headed Infant Fox, everyone on the cloud chariot frowned.

Most present were sharp-minded individuals, sensing the hidden meaning in the Three-headed Infant Fox’s words, and immediately, some realized and dismissed strange thoughts.

Yet, some continued to gaze at the lotus platform, eyes flickering, unsure of their thoughts.

On the principal seat, Master Mingde gently caressed the Great Seal in his palm, thoughts surging.

Junior Brother Sunx, suffering the first defeat, was entirely unexpected.

The past three Dharma Assemblies had all seen the Yunji Sect take the lead, thus the initial gain became increasingly significant, yet this year, the first to be defeated.

This left him anxious yet helpless.

However, with the Mountain-Suppressing Temple’s repeated defeat, his heart found sudden clarity.

It wasn’t Junior Brother Sunx’s weakness but rather that within the Loose Cultivators, there truly emerged a rare talent in a thousand years.

The sect held the Dharma Assembly not just to earn Spirit Stones and sell Jade Tokens but also with a hint of ”recruiting talent.”

If among the Loose Cultivators, an exceptional genius truly existed, or one with the Profound Sect’s Mysterious Skill, inviting them into the sect as an Elder would be feasible.

There was precedent for this.

However, Golden Core cultivators were not ordinary people, especially Independent Cultivator Golden Cores, mostly unruly. Should this genuinely occur, it wouldn’t be for him to intervene but rather for a True Person to persuade.

Previously, he intended to wield the Great Seal, protecting Master Feiyu, but was halted by the great consciousness within the seal. Then he understood that the sect’s True Person was also observing the Dharma Assembly, so he refrained from speaking, simply watching the situation develop.

A True Person would handle this individual.

Meanwhile, on the golden lotus platform, Gu Yuan stood, with mana rapidly restored by the platform’s nurturing to an unimaginable extent; within a few breaths, he returned to full strength.
