I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

”Clang!”

”Clang!”

”Clang!”

The melodious sound of the bell resonated throughout the Daoist School, announcing to all disciples that a new era had arrived.

The True Inheritance is set, the chief has been chosen, resources will be greatly allocated, and efforts will be made to nurture ten seeds to continue the Dao Lineage.

On the Cloud Platform, all the disciples showed envy, wishing they could replace those chosen.

But all of this is destined to be a mere dream.

Above the floating clouds, Master Yunyang waved the duster, and all the disciples were slowly sent out of the Secret Realm, leaving only Gu Yuan and others guided by a gentle force to ascend the floating clouds.

”Pay respects to the Dean!”

Master Yanghua of Formless Peak was the first to speak, calling out to Gu Yuan and the others.

”Greetings to the Dean and all the Ascendants!”

Gu Yuan was the first to bow, paying respects to the eight before them, and gave a slight bow to Sword Fox Immortal to show respect.

”Greetings to the Dean and all the Ascendants!”

The others followed behind him, paying their respects one after another.

”No need for excessive formality!”

Master Yunyang waved the duster, his manner amicable.

”The True Inheritance contention happens only once every few hundred years; you all have achieved this by destiny and are the future of our Daoist School.”

”Now is an age of great contention, the four seas are turbulent, I hope you practice diligently and achieve the Golden Core soon!”

Master Yunyang encouraged.

Gu Yuan and the others responded in unison.

”In our Daoist School, there are two Secret Realms. The first is the Cyan Heaven Secret Realm you are currently in, which our ancestor transported from the Central Land Divine State with Great Magical Power, and forms our School’s foundation, connected to Cyan Peak Mountain.”

”The second is the Purple Sun Secret Realm, containing ten Tier Three Spirit Islands, which are treasured by our Daoist School and rarely revealed to outsiders.”

”Now that you have achieved True Inheritance, you shall be rewarded.”

”These ten Spirit Islands are divided into ten grades according to the abundance of Spirit Meridian, which correspond to your True Inheritance rank. Take these Jade Tokens and follow the Daoist to claim the Spirit Islands!”

Master Yunyang did not offer much guidance to Gu Yuan and the others, only encouraged them slightly, then took ten Jade Tokens from his sleeve and gave them to Gu Yuan and the others.

Gu Yuan’s token was deep purple, crystal clear, with nine cloud patterns on it, exuding rich Spiritual Mechanism.

Shu Tianzhi and Bian Chuyao’s tokens were light purple, with six cloud patterns, exuding impressive Spiritual Mechanism.

The remaining seven tokens were silver-white, with three cloud patterns, and their Spiritual Qi appeared dim.

”Thank you, Dean!”

Gu Yuan and the others took the Jade Tokens and expressed their gratitude.

”Go now!”

Master Yunyang waved his sleeve, and a mass of cyan Cloud Qi surged out from it, transforming into a Daoist child, rosy-cheeked with blond hair, appearing about seven or eight years old.

The Daoist child’s eyes were lively and spirited, evidently of outstanding spiritual wisdom.

”Brothers, please follow me!”

The Daoist child smiled and bowed to Gu Yuan and the others, then pointed a finger, summoning a flowing cyan cloud that transformed into a Dharma Boat, carrying Gu Yuan and the others.

Then, with a flash of azure light, they disappeared from the original spot.

...

...

”I wonder how many can achieve the Golden Core...”

Watching the backs of Gu Yuan and the others departing, Master Yunyang suddenly let out a slight sigh.

”With a True Person’s protection, our Daoist School is bound to prosper!”

Master Yanghua of Formless Peak quickly responded.

”The tribulation of the Golden Core, only one in ten survives, it’s arduous!”

Master Yunyang shook his head.

With his status as a Daoist Embryo and over a thousand years of overseeing the Daoist School, he had only seen a few newly ascended Golden Cores, while the other true disciples had long turned to dust.

Hearing this, the Golden Cores remained silent.

The tribulation of the Golden Core is indeed terrifying; otherwise, they wouldn’t have gone to such lengths for the Ten Great True Inheritance, nurturing the top three alone would have sufficed.

The Ten True Inheritance only seeks to increase the odds slightly.

After all, those who can achieve True Inheritance have some hope of breaking through the realm.

”The time has come, and the Golden Cauldron Grass has matured. Do you have suitable disciples to bestow it upon?”

Yunyang did not linger overly on the True Inheritance matter; given his power and lifespan, he had become indifferent to many things.

He waved his sleeve, and a peculiar Spirit Grass, about the size of a palm and resembling a small golden cauldron, floated out.

Upon seeing this Spirit Grass, the Golden Cores’ faces lit up with eager expressions.

The Golden Cauldron Grass, a unique Tier Four Spirit Grass found only in the Cyan Heaven Secret Realm, takes a hundred years to sprout and nine hundred to mature.

This is only because it grows in a top-tier Tier Four Secret Realm like Cyan Heaven; outside in regular Spiritual Lands, it would take over a thousand years!

This grass does not enhance power, but it possesses a compelling effect.

Root Bone!

When the Golden Cauldron is ingested, it reconstructs the Root Bone!

This grass can miraculously effect transformations, greatly enhancing a person’s Root Bone; a Five-Aperture Body can become at least an Eight-Aperture Body upon consumption.

Disciples with a Seven-Aperture Body or above have a chance of forming a Dao Body.

Furthermore, the Golden Cauldron reshapes the body, strengthening tendons and bones, deepening Primordial Qi, providing more assurance during tribulation!

It is truly a top-tier treasure.

Cyan Peak Daoist School, as a renowned major sect within the South Mountain Domain, boasts a legacy spanning millennia, naturally possessing its own ”man-made heritage.”

The most crucial part of this heritage is the Body Seal!

The Golden Cauldron Seal!

This is the jealously guarded secret of Cyan Peak Daoist School, capable of reconstructing Root Bone to artificially create a ”heaven’s prodigy,” and is one of the school’s concealed foundations.

However, this seal requires the Golden Cauldron Grass to refine!

The rarity of the Golden Cauldron Grass means this seal is little-known, not recognized by outsiders.

The rarity also makes it uncertain how to distribute within the School.

It isn’t suitable for just anyone.

At the time, there was no notion of the Ten Great True Inheritance; even when the True Inheritance contention began, the timeline wouldn’t necessarily coincide with the Golden Cauldron Grass’s maturity.
