I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

”This... was blocked?!”

Above the clouds, those unaware of the intricacies exclaimed in surprise, looking at Master Zangyue with eyes full of awe.

Yet, on the Cloud Chariot, many Golden Core cultivators remained expressionless, merely observing the situation silently.

In the recent exchange, Gu Yuan’s sword light shone like the sun, dazzling and sharp, piercing through the powerful Qi blood and Qi power of Mountain-Suppressing Temple’s Golden Core, tearing a ghastly wound across his palm.

However, the Primordial Magnetic Golden Bone of Mountain-Suppressing Temple proved to be extraordinary. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, all Primordial Magnetic power seemed to converge in his palm, forming a sky-supporting net that forcibly halted the Boundless Sword Light.

But with Sun Fashan’s cautionary tale still fresh in memory, where did this Mountain-Suppressing Temple Golden Core find the courage to utter the words ”well-let”?

This Sword Dao great cultivator’s face remained ruddy, his breath steady, clearly indicating his mana was still abundant. Who knows how many more sword lights he could unleash; stopping just one sword counts as victory?

Some who practiced Sword Dao knew that Master Feiyu had yet to employ his most devastating Sword Dao techniques or to summon the exquisite Sword Pill to combine both ”sword” and ”technique” to strike the enemy.

Could it be that Master Zangyue had lost his mind?

Above the clouds, the Three-Headed Infant Fox also looked puzzled toward the late-stage Golden Core cultivator of Mountain-Suppressing Temple, Master Jinhua.

But Master Jinhua merely smiled mysteriously, offering no explanation.

”Haha, Fellow Daoist, take a look!”

At that moment, before the Golden Lotus Platform, Master Zangyue laughed heartily, shook his shoulders, and once again summoned a four-character Body Seal.

”Harmony with Heaven, Undying!”

As this seal emerged, surprised voices immediately rose from the Cloud Chariot.

”Unexpectedly, it’s this seal. Who would have thought that Mountain-Suppressing Sect has cultivated another Body Seal with such wondrous power!”

”No wonder, no wonder, daring to boast after only blocking one sword; so that’s why!”

Someone on the Cloud Chariot suddenly realized the chilling intent behind Master Zangyue’s words.

”What’s this Harmony with Heaven, Undying? What does it mean, what does it mean?”

”Which Fellow Daoist will enlighten us?!”

Above the clouds, those with less experience started scratching their heads anxiously, eager for answers.

”Harmony with Heaven refers to conforming to the mandate of Heaven, sustaining injuries yet remaining alive, and continuously enhancing the physical body. It’s a divine Body Seal of Mountain-Suppressing Temple. Once cultivated, it grants a peculiar root bone physique; as long as one endures a magical attack without dying, the body will adapt to the technique, naturally forming the ability to resist it.”

”In other words, as long as you cannot kill in one blow, the techniques you unleash will only increasingly fail to harm someone with this Body Seal, as if uplifted by Heaven, naturally guarding oneself.”

Someone above the clouds, with a broad knowledge from extensive schooling, explained.

”Thousands of years ago, Mountain-Suppressing Temple spawned such a Strange Seal. Later, the Seal Master achieved a Daoist Embryo, earning the title of Master Wuyang, roaming the East Mountain Realm for a thousand splendid years. Eventually, in pursuit of realm-breaking, he seemingly went to the Central Land Divine State, disappearing thereafter. Unexpectedly, Mountain-Suppressing Temple has cultivated another person with this seal.”

”Looks like Master Feiyu is in trouble.”

”This... this... this is somewhat despicable!”

”Why didn’t Master Zangyue mention this? Isn’t this just leading Master Feiyu to attack and test him?”

”Exactly, exactly, and moreover, Master Feiyu hasn’t even recovered his mana yet!”

Upon hearing this, a voice of indignation arose immediately above the clouds.

Sword splits the Celestial Abyss, defeating Sun Fashan, and not being a Major Sect disciple, the name Master Feiyu had inadvertently won the admiration of many.

”In magical combat, holding hidden cards is quite normal, no?”

”When it comes to life-and-death battles, who would inform you of their trump card in advance so you can beware?”

Yet someone quickly retorted, disagreeing with the ”Feiyu fans” statements.

”It was clearly Master Zangyue himself who issued the challenge, asking Master Feiyu to break his Dharma Body, and now employs such a Dharma Seal, which is nothing but an untrue victory!”

Someone sneered, rebutting immediately.

Suddenly, the area above the clouds turned noisy.

...

The happenings above the clouds were beyond Gu Yuan’s knowledge.

Yet upon witnessing this Body Seal used by Master Zangyue, he too felt somewhat surprised.

”So, Fellow Daoist has actually cultivated such mysterious techniques!”

Gu Yuan sighed slightly, seemingly in praise.

”The agreement still stands. I invite you, Fellow Daoist, to unleash your sword and break my Dharma Body!”

Master Zangyue stood with hands clasped behind, grinning as he spoke.

The fierce wound on his palm had vanished, not only that, the Body Seal of [Harmony with Heaven, Undying] above his head shimmered brightly, swirling endlessly, forming numerous tiny golden patterns on his exterior. These patterns, both sword-like and shield-like, brimmed with a peculiar Dao Charm, as if bestowed by nature itself.

Gu Yuan stood unmoving, yet he could feel the profound mystery in the golden patterns around the opponent, akin to a gigantic primordial magnetism storm, tightly enveloping him. Any sword light or golden artifact that neared would be torn apart and crushed by the ceaseless primordial magnetic force.

Harmony with Heaven, Undying, truly intriguing.

”Fellow Daoist, would you not unleash your sword? If you refrain, I might as well take over the Lotus Platform!”

Having revealed the most cherished trump card, having blocked the mighty sword light that even Sun Fashan couldn’t withstand, Master Zangyue couldn’t help but feel excited and spoke loudly to Gu Yuan.

”Fellow Daoist’s Dharma Seal is indeed profound, yet isn’t it a bit hasty? With such heart nature, desiring to seize the top position is far from enough!”

Gu Yuan heard his words and immediately chuckled softly.

This Master Zangyue, so spirited and vigorous, yet lacked a bit of magnanimity, confrontational; did he truly believe one technique alone could settle the entire matter of Qian?!

”I request to learn from your techniques!”
