I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Master Xuan Guang noticed that Gu Yuan hadn’t immediately answered and hurriedly added.

”Since Senior Brother has already planned so meticulously, how could I not respond?”

”As long as the Thousand Waves Sect is willing to exchange merits for the public transmission of this method, I will bring this seal to Senior Brother!”

Gu Yuan didn’t think much and agreed promptly.

To him, this matter was quite simple; as long as the Thousand Waves Sect was willing, he just had to ask and obtain it.

Naturally, he wouldn’t disrespect Master Xuan Guang over this matter.

”In that case, thank you, Junior Brother!”

Master Xuan Guang breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Gu Yuan.

”It’s a small matter!”

Gu Yuan chuckled lightly, and then the two rode their Escape Light back to their respective Cave Mansions without mentioning Magical Combat.

If he couldn’t defeat the Master of Mount Jing with the aid of the Star Spirit, then Master Xuan Guang’s elaborate strategies would have been in vain.

...

...

Half a month went by in the blink of an eye.

The entire Daoist School was immersed in an uproar.

Seven days ago, all Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Daoist School appeared, vying for a Tribulation Fruit that could reduce the Celestial Tribulation’s power by thirty percent.

An eye-dazzling battle.

All remaining True Inheritances of the Daoist School appeared alongside some non-True Inheritance, experienced Foundation Establishment cultivators also joined the fray.

Yet the final result was unexpected by everyone.

Shu Tianzhi from Celestial Spirit Peak, who had been devoted to cultivation for decades, becoming formidable within the Foundation Establishment Realm, was ultimately defeated by an elderly Foundation Establishment cultivator from Yingyue Peak.

Yinn Xingchao!

This person seemed to have created his own Dharma Gate, nurturing a Crimson Fire Spirit capable of transforming countless things, exhibiting overwhelming power that overshadowed Shu Tianzhi.

That night, Shu Tianzhi left the Daoist School and disappeared.

Now, the whole Daoist School was abuzz discussing Yinn Xingchao.

Even days later, the chatter continued without pause.

But what these disciples didn’t know was that a more formidable Magical Combat was yet to occur.

However, this combat was known to hardly anyone except those of the Golden Core.

...

Feng Family, Jade Cliff Island.

The Master of Mount Jing opened his eyes from quiet cultivation, and a brilliant starry light flashed in his eyes.

He formed a hand seal, seemingly calculating something, and after a long time, he released his fingers, letting out a long sigh.

”Yun’Er, bring me my Flying Star Moonlight Daoist Robe!”

He suddenly spoke, calling outside the Quiet Chamber.

Soon, a Shell Maiden with a graceful and charming appearance entered with several maidservants, carrying a dazzling Daoist Robe to Master of Mount Jing’s side.

”There aren’t any grand ceremonies today; why would the master think of wearing this robe?”

Born with long lifespans, the Shell Maiden had served the Master of Mount Jing for centuries, making their bond exceptional, hence she dared to inquire about the Golden Core.

This Flying Star Moonlight Daoist Robe was crafted with genuine Outer World Star Stone, tempered into silk by the Great Sun Essence Flame, then stitched by countless Shell Maidens, luxurious beyond compare. Wearing it is like adorning the Star River, surrounded by Flying Stars and Moonlight, inherently displaying an anomaly.

This robe was Master of Mount Jing’s cherished possession, worn only at his Golden Core Ceremony and once when representing the Daoist School visiting foreign sects; otherwise, it was kept stowed away.

Yet today, it was worn without reason, raising the Shell Maiden’s natural curiosity.

”In this life, it seems I can only engage this person once.”

”Even if defeated, I must not diminish my demeanor and reputation.”

The Master of Mount Jing sighed softly.

”Master intends to engage in Magical Combat? Which Golden Core is worthy of such praise from the master?”

The Shell Maiden asked curiously.

But the Master of Mount Jing shook his head and remained silent.
