I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

”Boom!”

The violent roar echoed in the cavern, the resplendent arrow shadow tearing everything to pieces, then silence returned.

Gu Yuan looked at Yun Hanyou, who was drenched in blood at his feet, his expression indifferent.

The fierce arrow shadow had shredded Yun Hanyou’s abdomen, blasting a big hole through her dantian, looking appalling, but she hadn’t died.

”Cough, cough!”

”You also have a Foundation Establishment Golden Seal... but of course, with your Tribulation Cultivation experience, it’s impossible not to have prepared a backup plan.”

”However, you should have... should have just killed me outright!”

”A true Tribulation Cultivator wouldn’t hold back...”

Though severely injured, Yun Hanyou looked exhilarated, her face somewhat flushed, her beautiful eyes staring tightly at Gu Yuan, seemingly dissatisfied with him.

Gu Yuan did not reply, simply sweeping up the black jade slip from Yun Hanyou’s sleeve using mana.

In ordinary times, Gu Yuan would have already shot Yun Hanyou dead with an arrow, without any hesitation.

But the Stone Liquid displayed that the opportunity in the cavern was illusionary, not tangible.

With his experience from Silverfish Island, Gu Yuan suspected this kind of opportunity might be a trigger, leading to other opportunities.

Just like when he met Sword Fox Immortal on Silverfish Island.

Combining Yun Hanyou’s previous words, Gu Yuan suspected it to be highly related to the Body Seal.

Thus, he spared a bit of power, didn’t kill Yun Hanyou directly, only broke her dantian and crushed her mana.

”Swish!”

Gu Yuan’s eyes flashed with strange golden light, looking towards the black jade slip in his hand.

The jade slip was protected by complex Dao Patterns, but these Dao Patterns seemed to guard only against Spiritual Sense, not Spiritual Eye.

Gu Yuan, like light and electricity, effortlessly found the node in the Daoist School, his mana gathered into threads, easily breaking apart the Dao Patterns.

”Buzzing!”

The black jade slip lightly trembled, its ink-black color gradually faded, finally revealing a bit of translucent white.

Simultaneously, an idea emerged in Gu Yuan’s mind.

”Heh heh heh, future descendant, I don’t know who you are, but you are lucky!”

”The Three Heart Seal and all of my treasures are hidden in the Cloud Mist Secret Realm of Zhongshan Country. If you want them, go and get them!”

There was only this sentence in the idea, then the voice disappeared, leaving a mysterious map in Gu Yuan’s mind, pointing to a strange location.

”Is it the Three Heart Seal?”

After the jade slip transmitted this idea and map, it turned into powder and dissipated.

Gu Yuan looked down and asked the barely alive Yun Hanyou.

”Enhancing the insight threefold, like a Three-Orifice Linglong Heart’s Three Heart Seal... the legacy of Three Dharma Daoist, the profound Body Seal that my Yun Family has searched for over twenty years!”

”Three Dharma Daoist was a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator one hundred and fifty years ago, the mightiest Tribulation Cultivator within Ba Country, having experienced over a hundred raids, his methods numerous, his wealth astonishing.”

”His last raid was a sneak attack on the Golden Core Lineage of Sunset Glow Mountain, wanting to seize the resources needed to ascend to Golden Core.”

”It was the least confident raid of his life, so he hid his most precious Dharma Seals and all his secrets in advance, leaving many clues during the raids.”

”This jade slip is one of the three maps he hid.”

”With this jade slip, you can seek out the Three Heart Seal!”

Yun Hanyou’s eyes were locked onto Gu Yuan, without the slightest hesitation, she directly revealed the information she knew.

Meanwhile, she seemed to recall something, a look of expectation flashed in her eyes, her black and white eyes sparkling.

”I can go with you!”

”You and I together, we can certainly become the strongest Tribulation Cultivators. Three Dharma Daoist was eccentric and bizarre, only I know what he thinks!”

”Male and female twin perils, we can become male and female twin perils, do you like women? I can be your woman, I can help you raid many, many women for you to toy with!”

”Though you didn’t directly kill me, there’s some regret, but you’re the most decisive and powerful Tribulation Cultivator I’ve ever seen, you can control me, I can submit to you!”

Yun Hanyou seemed to think of something, her heavily injured body twitching, her face flushed red, seemingly immersed in some fantasy.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan couldn’t help but frown.

This woman, truly strange.

Tribulation Cultivators really are madmen.

”Pfft!”

At this thought, Gu Yuan did not hesitate, the Peach Blossom Sword Seal directly fell, penetrating through Yun Hanyou’s forehead.

”Oh!”

Yun Hanyou’s face turned red, whether from pain or pleasure, she ceased breathing.

...

...

Looking at Yun Hanyou’s still beautiful corpse after her death, Gu Yuan sighed and summoned the Flame Flood Dragon Seal, burning it to ashes.

Yun Hanyou was the strongest Qi Refining Cultivator he encountered since entering the mountain, also the one with the most eccentric temperament.

Although her whole Tribulation Cultivation strength was restrained by him, she still had many means and was incredibly formidable.

Especially the final Golden Light Talisman, it already possessed a trace of Foundation Establishment Power as a life-saving talisman. If Gu Yuan hadn’t used the Spirit Stones obtained from Spiritual Crane Island upon entering the mountain and acquired a potent talisman, Yun Hanyou might have already fled.

”Just one strike cost me nearly 700 Spirit Stones. Without harvest, I’d really suffer a big loss.”

Looking at the dim golden talisman sleeve, Gu Yuan couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.

Four days ago, after hearing Qiu Mingshan’s explanation at the Human Resources Hall, Gu Yuan went to Moon Bamboo Market with his Spirit Stones, trying to enhance his power, striving for foolproof success.

In the market, various Dharma Artifacts and talismans were being madly sold.

Among them, the Golden Seal with a trace of Foundation Establishment Stage power was highly contested.

In this world, talisman craft is a minor path.

Because the cultivator’s own mana cannot evoke spiritual energy, one must rely on the power of the magic seal.

To craft a talisman, one can only imprint the Dao Patterns from the Dharma Seal onto the talisman paper to create a talisman.

But the talismans crafted this way hold very little power, almost negligible.

Especially since the True Immortal ascended to the Celestial Palace, the world lacks talisman papers that can bear power, causing the talisman path to completely fall.

Above Golden Core, it is impossible to craft talismans.

Only the Foundation Establishment Golden Seal has a trace of efficacy.

But this trace of efficacy is extremely limited, merely stronger than top-grade dharma artifacts, hard to be restrained.

If someone with powerful means can withstand this attack, then proceed with the slaughter.

If used well, in an instant, it could decide victory or defeat.

Gu Yuan, at that time, was not short of top-grade dharma artifacts, with numerous competitors for the Golden Seal. He bid 700 Spirit Stones for one, bolstering his hand against unforeseen events.

Sure enough, it played a role.

Without this Golden Seal, Yun Hanyou may have already teleported out of this place.

”Wealth, companionship, Dharma, and location... wealth truly ranks first.”

Gu Yuan sighed once, then picked up the storage bag on the ground, walked out of the cavern, heading straight to the mountain top, sitting cross-legged and setting up the array disc.

Killing is only a means, occupying the Spirit Peak is the ultimate goal.
