I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 313: The Yin-Yang Sword Seal finally achieved success!
Two months later.

On top of a straight mountain that looked like a sharp sword, reaching into the sky, Gu Yuan gently opened his eyes.

There was a divine light flickering in his eyes, and in a trance, there seemed to be wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and fire flowing in the mountains, but in the end, it returned to silence and turned into normal eyes again.

In the past two months, he has been traveling non-stop, crossing nine peaks, defeating nine apes in a row, entering nine sword peaks, and constantly comprehending the nine sword techniques in the natural sword stone formation, and finally achieved some success.

"However, this Nine Peaks Trial is not as exquisite as imagined. Although the nine sword techniques have their own strengths, when compared, they may not be able to surpass the fully-developed Golden Brilliant Sword Seal..."

Gu Yuan has been practicing for so long that he has gained some insight and can see the essence of this trial.

Although this trial crushes the nine sword techniques and allows the trial-taker to master the nine techniques, the nine techniques can only be mastered to this extent. Can it really be differentiated into eighty-one sword lights?
If one could really split the sword lights into eighty-one, then why would one need the Nine Methods? One would have crushed everything long ago.

In general, this trial made him more "sophisticated" in swordsmanship, and he gained a great understanding of the Eight Diagrams Sword Intentions and the invisible "Nothingness" Sword Intentions.

But it failed to go beyond that and reach a more mysterious realm.

Even more, if Gu Yuan transformed into a dragon and used the Golden Sun Sword Sutra to activate the Golden Sword Seal, he could break all sword techniques and pierce through all sword formations in one fell swoop.

Fortunately, there is one last step in the trial.

"I hope you won't let me down..."

Gu Yuan took out an animal skin map from his sleeve, and then took out a green compass.

On the compass, nine palm-sized sword-shaped tokens are inlaid tightly in between. On each sword token, there is a dazzling sword pattern, shining brightly.

As Gu Yuan activated his magic power, the nine sword orders suddenly trembled continuously. The sword patterns on them seemed to come alive. They jumped up and flew directly from the sword orders and fell onto the animal skin map.

The animal skin map trembled slightly, and a strange spiritual pattern appeared.

"Cang! Cang!"

The other eight tokens also flew up one by one and landed on the animal skin map, with a slight sound of metal clanging being heard.

The nine patterns merged into one, and on the animal skin map, a spiritual pattern that looked like a "key" condensed into shape and shone brightly.

At the same time, a bright spot of light flashed on the map, pointing to a strange direction.

"That's it..."

Seeing this, Gu Yuan did not hesitate. He grabbed the map, set up a light of escape, and soared directly into the sky, heading towards the direction indicated by the map.

On the sword's edge, a tall, silver-haired ape monster looked at Gu Yuan's receding back. A hint of impulse flashed in its eyes, but in the end, it was suppressed.

"It's just a sword seal. It's not something that can help you break through the realm and gain enlightenment. It's not worth it..."

……

……

Gu Yuan naturally wouldn't know what happened after his death, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

He escaped swiftly, and in less than half a day, he arrived at an uninhabited shallow beach.

On the shallows, the yellow reeds swayed in the wind like waves. On the beach, crabs and turtles that had not yet become spirits were lazily basking in the sun. Even if a Jindan cultivator came, they did not have any intelligence and did not know how to dodge.

The spiritual energy here is thin, and there are no islands within hundreds of miles. It is an uninhabited place.

"That's it..."

Gu Yuan's escape light landed on the shallows, he took out the animal skin map and activated it with magic power.

In an instant, the "key spirit pattern" on the animal skin map shone brightly, as if it had come alive, and it actually flew directly out of the map and landed in the void.

"boom!"

The void shook, and invisible wind pressure swept in all directions, reeds swayed, crabs and turtles flew across the sky, as if a "small world" was hooked by an anchor point and fell into the void, and a faint ripple emerged.

"Boom!"

Gu Yuan's mind moved, and he leaped up and flew directly towards the ripples in the air.

His eyes blurred for a moment, but time returned to normal in an instant. Gu Yuan looked up and saw that he had arrived in a valley.

The valley is not big, only a hundred feet in circumference, with cliffs on both sides. The most important thing is that the cliffs go straight up all the way to the sky, seemingly with no end. Even Gu Yuan's divine sense cannot detect the limit.

Above the clouds, everything was gray and it seemed that only the valley in front of us was real in the whole world, and the rest was hidden in the fog.

Gu Yuan took a few steps and saw a bamboo courtyard in the valley.

Peach blossoms are in full bloom in the courtyard, and pink flowers are peeking out from the partition wall. A bluestone path winds its way, and behind a row of stone tables is a yin-yang shaped stone platform.

The left is Yin and the right is Yang. Where Yin and Yang meet, there is a jade box suspended.

Apart from this, there is nothing else in the entire valley.

Gu Yuan hung a treasure mirror above his head and examined it carefully for a long time. After making sure that there was nothing missing or unusual, he sent out his divine sense and focused it on the jade box.

"boom!"

In an instant, an old voice sounded in Gu Yuan's mind.

"No matter who you are, you must have some strength and luck to be able to enter this valley. I think you can inherit the method of the Yin-Yang Sword Seal..."

"Even if you are not from my Qianlang Sect, since you have learned this method, I hope you can take care of my sect."

“I would like to warn those who come after me that the way of cultivation lies in the power and realm. Don’t be greedy and seek perfection. If you don’t enter the Dao womb, you will only live for a thousand years. If you enter the Dao womb, you will only live for two thousand years. Be brave and diligent, and break through when you should. Don’t delay, otherwise you will end up like me!”

With the last warning, the old voice suddenly disappeared.

Gu Yuan looked up and saw that the jade box had been opened. Inside, a yin and yang sword ball was lying quietly.

Not only that, above the sword ball, a ray of golden light flickered continuously, which seemed to reveal a sense of immortality.

"This is... the Golden Seal Sword Pill?!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan was slightly startled, and then he showed joy.

No wonder the ape demon was willing to betray his master and break into the Liangyi Secret Realm.

In this Liangyi secret realm, what finally flourished was not the Dharma, but the "Immortal Sword Seal".

A sword seal condensed from a top-grade sword pellet infused with immortal gold!
"clank!"

At this moment, the Yin-Yang Sword Seal seemed to sense the breath of a living person and suddenly rose up, with bright sword light surging up, as if trying to escape.

"Wow!"

But at this time, Gu Yuan would not let the sword ball escape. His magic power immediately surged out and condensed boundless water power to form a large green hand with clear and lifelike palm lines, and it rushed towards the sword ball.

Seal for capturing whales and binding dragons!
This is also one of the secret seals that Gu Yuan learned from Qianlang Sect. This seal requires finding ten thousand kilograms of true water essence, and then integrating it with many spiritual materials such as Dingtian Stone before it can be completed.

This seal is extremely powerful. Once activated, it can condense boundless water power into a giant hand that can capture whales, bind dragons, and seize mountains.

The deeper the magic power, the greater the power of this seal.

It has the same effect as the Dragon Binding Seal and the Mountain Moving Seal that Gu Yuan practiced when he was building his foundation. Unfortunately, these two seals do not have more advanced spiritual materials, resulting in their power not keeping up with the realm and they can no longer be used.

Fortunately, the Whale Capturing and Dragon Binding Seal is also a superior secret seal of the Qianlang Sect, and it is an extravagant and luxurious seal, which can completely make up for the loss of the two seals.

When Gu Yuan first entered the swamp and killed the giant python, he used this seal.

At this time, the seal was activated again, the water light was magnificent, the palm was lifelike, and it was filled with boundless power. "Zheng!"

But the sword ball just trembled slightly, and a bright and surging sword light was emitted violently, like thunder in the sky and fire in the earth, with an indescribable power, it actually pierced through the green palm directly.

Its speed and power are beyond description.

Not only that, the sword ball trembled slightly, and in an instant, thousands of sword lights came like a stream of water, surging in like a heavy rain, and actually wrapped around Gu Yuan in the opposite direction.

Although the sword ball has no owner, the sword light it activates is still chilling and frightening.

But Gu Yuan's heart moved and he did not resist with other seals.

Instead, he activated his own sword ball, continuously evolving nine sword techniques, which turned into sword formations in the air to block the sword light that was pouring down from the sky.

"Buzz!"

Blocked by the sword formation, the vibration of the sword ball suddenly slowed down.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan was delighted.

The golden seal has a spirit, just like when he first refined the Three-Heart Golden Seal. Unless it is refined by force, a unique spell or ritual is required.

The Nine Peaks Trial can become an important part of this trip, and these nine sword techniques must be the key.

Sure enough, as the nine sword techniques evolved one by one, the sword ball suddenly lost its edge and stopped shaking.

After Gu Yuan finished practicing the last sword technique, the Yin-Yang Sword Ball suddenly shone brightly, then turned into a stream of light and slammed into Gu Yuan's own sword ball.

"boom!"

Sword energy was overflowing, countless sword energies were surging. Not only that, an extremely surging amount of information also suddenly hit Gu Yuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

Stab, chop, tap, stab, pick, collapse, cut, chop, wipe...

Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, Dui, Kong...

A young boy suddenly appeared in Gu Yuan's mind. The boy had been obsessed with swords since he was a child. He began to practice swordplay with an iron sword in his hand. At first, he only practiced ordinary moves and controlled the sword with his body.

Then he began to practice, controlling the sword with his Qi and his mind. He practiced nine sword techniques in one breath, condensed nine sword intents, and traveled through the same realm.

Later, the boy grew into middle-aged, but his obsession with sword remained unchanged. He integrated the nine methods and comprehended the strengths of hundreds of schools. Finally, he achieved a mastery of them and reached an incredible realm.

The sword is like yin and yang, yin is like water, flowing endlessly, and the sword light never stops.

The yang is like the sun, and the thunder from the sky suddenly strikes with its brilliant power, cutting everything into pieces.

Abandon all distractions and reach the state of yin and yang. One sword can break all things, and one sword can create all things.

All methods can be used to cultivate a sword!
Countless insights into the ways of the sword flowed through Gu Yuan's mind like running water, and he was immersed in them, unable to extricate himself.

While in the air, the Yin-Yang Sword Pill, like ink, actually slowly penetrated into Gu Yuan's sword pill.

The two are merged into one, even the nature of gold is included in it.

Above the sword ball, the rhythm of Tao flows, the light is dazzling, and there seems to be a mysterious meaning slowly being born.

After a long time, Gu Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

In his eyes, one yin and one yang, one black and one white, they were full of strange charm.

"The Yin-Yang Sword Seal is indeed mysterious, especially for me..."

Gu Yuan murmured softly, the strange vision in his eyes slowly disappeared, and he regained his composure again, but he could not hide the smile on the corner of his mouth.

The sword seals he practiced were mixed and not pure.

The boundless sword seal divides the sword light, which is fast, accurate and ruthless, and overwhelms the enemy with its force.

The golden sword seal is as bright as the sun and can kill with one strike. It is extremely powerful. However, it can only be used after changing into a dragon body and transforming the martial arts in advance, which is inconvenient.

Later, in the sword travel notes, he comprehended the nine methods and learned the method of deriving formations, which enabled him to fight against many enemies alone, and his sword skills reached a new level.

But it is still too complicated and not pure.

But after today, things are different.

The Yin-Yang Sword Seal, all things nourish one sword, one sword gives birth to all things.

All sword techniques are integrated into the Yin-Yang sword intent, the Yang is more masculine, and the Yin is more continuous!
Now, Gu Yuan no longer has the Golden Sword Seal, nor the Boundless Sword Seal, nor the Nine Sword Techniques of the Qianlang Sect. He only has the Yin-Yang Sword Seal!
If he wanted to unleash his power like thunder, he could break everything with one sword. It was extremely masculine and domineering, with power surpassing the Golden Sword Seal!
If one wants to split the sword light, it will be continuous and endless, even more so than the Boundless Sword Seal.

The Liang Yi Sword Seal is a melting pot of swordsmanship, where all sword seals are integrated to give birth to the most essential and pure sword intent of swordsmanship.

Gu Yuan looked up and saw that his originally golden sword ball had disappeared, and the Yin-Yang sword ball also disappeared.

The two sword balls merged, and were replaced by a strange sword ball that looked like an ink painting.

The yin and yang are constantly flowing, revealing a wonderful spiritual charm.

The Yin-Yang Sword Pill was originally of top-grade quality. After being fused with Gu Yuan's sword pill, its quality went up to a higher level and it had already touched the threshold of a fourth-grade spiritual treasure. Its spiritual charm was extremely vast.

But what Gu Yuan was concerned about was not the quality of the sword ball, but the yin-yang sword pattern on it.

"cut!"

Gu Yuan shouted softly, and his magic power flowed into the sword ball.

In an instant, a brilliant sword intent, accompanied by magnificent power, rushed out like the sun!

"Zheng!"

The world suddenly brightens!

A huge and boundless sword mark tore through the cliff wall, extending hundreds of miles away, almost cutting through the sky!
The power of this sword was so great that it almost drained all of Gu Yuan's magic power.

Fortunately, the absorption of heaven and earth by a mid-stage Jindan cultivator is also vast, and spiritual energy surges and continuously flows into Gu Yuan's body, restoring his magic power.

"point!"

Then Gu Yuan shouted again, the sword ball turned in an instant, and forty sword lights suddenly split out.

But this sword light was completely different from the sword light that Gu Yuan had previously differentiated.

I saw sword lights, and the trajectories they drew in the air were full of strange Taoist rhymes. One sword light seemed to draw a star map, one sword light was as agile as a dragon, one sword light stirred up the dense wood energy, and one sword light rolled up with every move.

The forty sword lights each displayed a different sword technique.

Not only that, as Gu Yuan's mind moved, sword lights gathered together, six merged into one, seven merged into one, and nine merged into one, each with a different power, as if more than ten dragons were swimming in the air, dragging long sword tails.

The sword light appears and disappears, seemingly without end. As long as his magic power is endless, the sword light will be eternal and he can fight in all directions and deal with many enemy cultivators.

The yang is as overbearing as the sun, the yin is as dense as water; the yin and yang exist in one heart.

From then on, Gu Yuan's sword seal became a melting pot. Any sword techniques he learned would be integrated into this seal. The more sword techniques he learned, the more domineering the Liangyi sword intent would become.

No more confusion!

To this day, I have finally made some progress in swordsmanship!
