I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 319: The hexagram is very ominous, Danghun Peak!

The world is spinning.

At the top of Dongqiao Mountain, a suction force came from the sky. Gu Yuan flew into the sky, but after passing through that strange portal, the sky and the earth were upside down. The whole world suddenly changed direction. The escaping light was no longer heading towards the sky, but straight towards a continuous mountain range.

But with his current state, controlling the escape light is as easy as eating and drinking. With just a thought, he stabilized his body and stood in mid-air. With his mind surging, he looked at the towering mountains and steep cliffs below his feet.

The mountains are overlapping, the valleys are deep and the ancient trees with twisted dragons rise from the ground, stretching into a continuous patch and casting a huge shadow. The mountain wind blows with a whimpering sound, and from time to time the roar of beasts can be heard, bringing with it a fishy breeze.

The spiritual energy is like mist, floating randomly among the deep woods and ravines, bringing a touch of spirituality to this primitive and desolate world.

"It seems that this is Zhuiyun Mountain..."

Gu Yuan stood above the mountains, his eyes full of thought.

The Taoist Gua's jade slips contain the map of the Lingbao Cliff secret realm and the information he collected.

This is the first level of the Lingbao Cliff Secret Realm, Zhuiyun Mountain!

This mountain is vast, stretching tens of thousands of miles. Anyone who enters the secret realm will have their orientation disrupted. Only those who are bound to a token can go along.

There are a large number of monsters in Zhuiyun Mountain, all of which were captured and released by Lingbao Sect in the past. Not only that, each of these monsters has a companion spiritual creature in its cave. The purpose is to test the disciples. If they can defeat the monsters, they can obtain the spiritual creature.

God is merciful and kind, and Lingbao Sect is also a major sect of the Xuanmen Sect. Therefore, although these monsters are powerful, they are all unintelligent, so as to avoid "harming their own kind".

However, with the demise of Lingbao Sect, the monsters and beasts in this secret realm had not been cleared out for a long time and had become rampant. Although many spiritual objects of all kinds were devoured by the monsters, a lot of them had accumulated over time.

Most of the people who entered the secret realm in previous times came to search this mountain and obtained many rare treasures.

"Roar!"

At this moment, a huge roar suddenly came from the mountains below, and then a strange monster with a lion head, eagle wings, and bone spurs on its back came towards Gu Yuan with a fishy wind and bit him viciously.

Judging from its appearance, this monster is unable to transform and its intelligence is not high, but its aura is ferocious and no less than that of a Jindan cultivator.

"Why? Was he hurt by humans before, so he holds a grudge against them?"

When Gu Yuan swept his mind, he found a hideous sword mark on the monster's abdomen.

Although the monster in Zhuiyun Mountain was not very intelligent, it still had some instincts. It had been injured by humans before and held a grudge in its heart. When it saw Gu Yuan's appearance, it immediately rushed up.

"How dare you, a bastard, offend my master!"

Upon seeing this, the golden frog on Gu Yuan's shoulder jumped up and immediately transformed into a young man with blond hair and red eyes. He waved his hand and a bright flame transformed into a dragon, rushing towards the monster.

"Roar!"

The monster spread its wings, raising a strange wind with surging demonic power, but it could not stop the fire dragon. Half of its body was wrapped up and it let out a painful scream.

"Kill him if you want to, don't do this jokingly!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan frowned and scolded.

"Yes, sir!"

Upon hearing this, the Heart-Eating Bug was startled and immediately put away its joking intention. It condensed its demonic power and transformed it into a red rocket, which suddenly flew up and pierced directly into the monster's brow, piercing it.

The monster was full of treasures, so Gu Yuan naturally did not let it go. He collected its corpse, then lowered his light and landed on the cliff under his feet.

There is a dark and deep cave in the cliff, which should be the lair of the monster.

In front of the cave entrance, on the steep cliff, there is a gray ancient tree rooted in the crevice of the cliff. On the branch of the tree, there is a pale yellow fruit swaying in the wind.

"It's actually the Wind Demon Fruit. Unfortunately, it's only a hundred years old..."

Seeing this, Gu Yuan secretly thought it was a pity.

Fengsha Fruit, one of the five exotic fruits, is a rare "Dharma fruit" in the world.

After taking this fruit, you will have the ability to "spit out wind from your mouth". This wind can destroy magical instruments and spells, and its power is quite impressive.

The older the Wind Evil Fruit is, the more ferocious the Wind Evil it spits out will be. If the Wind Evil Fruit is a thousand years old, it can be comparable to a top-notch third-order magic seal.

Unfortunately, this Fengsha fruit must have been picked once, and this one that is over a hundred years old must have been harvested again later.

"Let's go. This secret realm is not an ordinary place as it can produce such a miraculous fruit. We should be able to get some opportunities..."

After saying that, Gu Yuan’s escape light rose again and flew away into the distance.

The heart-eating worm naturally followed obediently.

But having said that, Gu Yuan's direction of progress is not aimless.

When Gu Yuan was checking the token opportunity through the stone liquid that day, he had already obtained the location of the silver opportunity from those vague pieces of information.

Among them, there is a "fruit" opportunity in the Zhuiyun Mountain.

I just don’t know what this fruit is.
Is it the fruit of the Dharma, or something else?
Out of curiosity, Gu Yuan cleared out the nearby monsters while moving towards the opportunity.

……

……

"Hehehe, with my divination skills, the remaining opportunities here should be mine!"

Just as Gu Yuan was moving towards the opportunity, on another cliff of Zhuiyun Mountain, the Taoist priest holding a Taoist banner suddenly smiled and revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth.

“May the heavens and earth bless you, may the precious spiritual fruits and treasures come to us quickly!”

He sat cross-legged on the cliff, shaking his head and muttering strange spells.

These spells are actually useless, but he has been playing in the world for many years and has already formed a habit with them.

I saw a tortoise-shell-like seal on his knees, quietly rotating. At the same time, six copper coin-shaped seals appeared in his hand, which were clear and black, and looked like chess pieces.

The seven seals work together to form the method of divination.

"Crash!!"

Taoist Gua threw the seals and tortoise shells in his hands together. Several seals immediately turned over and rolled on the ground. After a while, they stopped in a special trajectory.

The Taoist priest looked at it carefully, pinching his fingers together as if calculating, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face: "It turns out that there is a chance left. Judging from the hexagram, it seems that there is still a good chance."

But at this moment, there was a copper coin seal on the ground, which suddenly moved without wind and rolled. The Taoist's face suddenly changed:
"A bad omen?"

"What kind of opportunity is this? Why would such a bad omen appear?"

"Is there any powerful monster in Zhuiyun Mountain that I cannot afford to offend?"

The original feeling of surprise completely disappeared, and a solemn look appeared on the face of the Taoist hexagram master. He then put away all the seven hexagram seals, and then took out a golden tortoise shell.

This tortoise shell is not a magic seal, but a magic weapon. It is covered with densely packed seal characters engraved on the back and belly of the tortoise, which is dazzling.

"No, no, I need to tell you again whether the fight for the Lingbao at Lingbao Cliff will be auspicious or ominous!"

While muttering to himself, the Taoist hexagram threw six copper coins into the golden tortoise shell.

In an instant, a strange Taoist rhythm flowed on the golden tortoise shell, revealing a mysterious charm, as if nurturing the six copper coin seals.

"Open!" Taoist Gua raised the golden tortoise shell, closed his eyes and shook it for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes, shouted softly, then swung the tortoise shell and threw out the six copper coin seals again.

The coin fell to the ground, leaving a strange trajectory.

The fortune teller took a closer look, and a solemn expression appeared on his face again: "Even with the power of the golden turtle, I still can't figure out the specific hexagram of this trip. Good and bad are accompanied by each other, and I can't explain the reason. There is no change from before."

Then he showed a puzzled look again: "If that's the case, why does Zhuiyun Mountain show such a bad omen?"

"Could it be that it's not because of the monster, but because they went to grab the treasure and encountered the other Lords?"

The more the fortune teller speculated, the more he felt that this possibility was extremely high.

At the same time, he was curious and wanted to know:

"Which Lord would give me such a bad omen?"

The more he thought about it, the more curious he became. He immediately put away the copper coins and golden turtle, patted his butt, stood up from the cliff, and hurriedly set up his escape light, ready to go and see the evil man.

But when the light of escape rose to the middle of the sky, he pulled his beard again and said with a sad face: "No, no, my old problem has come back. The hexagram clearly says that it is a sign of great misfortune. If I leave so early, won't I be courting death?"

"Wait a moment, wait until the evil master takes the opportunity, then I will take another look from afar. This way, I won't have to worry about my life, and I can also know the identity of the evil master, and deal with the battle at Lingbao Cliff."

After completing his plan, Taoist Gua was not idle either. He lowered his escape light, randomly found a few monster caves, strangled them and killed them to pass the time.

……

……

Just as the hexagram of the Taoist fortune teller changed, Gu Yuan, leading the heart-eating insects, had already advanced all the way towards the place where the opportunity was revealed.

As we kept walking, we saw high mountains, deep valleys, overlapping peaks, towering ancient trees, and extremely steep terrain.

But fortunately, since he entered the foundation-building stage, Gu Yuan has rarely worried about the "high mountains and steep cliffs".

Flying is one of the many magical parts on the path of spiritual practice. It is extremely free and unrestrained. Traveling to Beihai in the morning and Cangwu in the evening is no longer a fantasy.

No matter how high or wide Zhuiyun Mountain is, it cannot stop the monks from riding on the clouds.

Crossing the sea of ​​clouds, a steep peak suddenly comes into view.

On top of the mountain, it was chilly and misty, making it difficult to see clearly.

When the mountain wind blew, a faint whimpering sound was heard above the peaks, floating far away and making Gu Yuan frown slightly.

"It's actually a dangerous place that could shake the soul. No wonder there's no record of it in the map. I guess no one has entered it yet..."

Looking at the steep and cold peaks, Gu Yuan pondered in his heart.

With his current divine perception, which was so sharp, he understood the abnormality of this place with just a quick glance.

The breeze blowing on top of this mountain ridge is not an ordinary mountain breeze, but a "soul-shaking wind" that brings a chill.

The world is vast, and there are always some strange places where, by chance and fate, some strange things will be born.

Danghun Peak is one of them.

The mountain is filled with dense Yin energy, mixed with the terrain, and contains a large amount of soul power. Over time, it flows continuously and forms the "soul-stirring wind".

This wind can freeze the soul and blow away consciousness, and it is comparable to a natural third-grade superior formation. It is extremely powerful. An ordinary Jindan cultivator will be killed in a short period of time if he enters it.

To be honest, this style is similar to Song Yuyang's [Mie Zi Yan Seal].

The difference is that this wind is slightly less powerful, but it lasts longer and continues without stopping. It is the true power of heaven and earth.

"Could this peak also be specially cultivated by Lingbao Sect?"

"If this is the case, it will take at least thousands of years. If no one has entered this place, how long will it take to cultivate the spiritual fruit?"

When he thought of this, Gu Yuan suddenly felt excited.

With his current realm, it can still be displayed as a silver opportunity, which must be no ordinary thing.

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate, slowly lowered his escape light, and walked towards the Danghun Peak.

"Hu! Hu! Hu!"

As soon as he entered the peak, an icy cold wind whistled towards Gu Yuan.

The wind did not blow on his body, nor was it blocked by any magical power. It blew straight towards his soul, making his mind feel cold.

"clang!"

Gu Yuan's mind moved, and the Taiyin Soul Tempering Seal immediately lit up. In an instant, a faint layer of Taiyin moonlight power emerged above his head.

Although he has many methods of practice so far, he does not have many soul seals, and he still uses the Taiyin Soul Tempering Seal.

As long as this seal does not use the mother-child technique and simply absorbs the moonlight, it will be a first-class superior Xuanmen soul seal. It can slowly strengthen the soul, surpass the same realm, and even allow the soul to live outside the body. It is truly mysterious.

Gu Yuan has been refining this seal for many years, and with a few opportunities, the power of his soul has far exceeded that of an ordinary middle-stage Jindan, and is about to reach the late-stage Jindan realm.

At this moment, he sacrificed this seal, attracted the moonlight, and with the surging soul power, suddenly a thin layer of soul clothing covered him.

The sound of the wind died down, the coldness receded, and Gu Yuan's movements returned to normal.

The Heart-Eating Bug that came with him howled like a ghost: "Master, this wind hurts so much, I can't stand it anymore, it's so cold!"

As it spoke, the Heart-Eating Bug summoned its magical power and emitted golden demonic fire, as if to dispel the cold.

But when Gu Yuan saw this, he glared at him coldly, extinguished the flames directly, and scolded him: "Don't make noise, you can't stand it just after entering this peak? Don't play dumb with me, quickly go to the front to clear the way!"

As the master, he knew best the fluctuations of the Heart-Eating Bug's soul power.

This insect is a born alien species. It has no other abilities except for its powerful soul power. Although it has just broken through the great demon realm, it can live in a monster beast in the middle stage of the great demon. One can imagine its soul power?

At this moment, although the Danghun Peak is gloomy and cold, it has not yet penetrated deep into the inner area. The soul of the Heart-Eating Bug is safe and sound. It just feels cold and uncomfortable. Why is it complaining here?
There are really too many peaceful days.

Gu Yuan showed no mercy and directly ordered the Heart-Eating Bug to clear the way ahead.

The heart-eating worm made a screaming sound, but was whipped by Gu Yuan's magic power, so it had to walk in front, wading through the weeping soul-stirring wind, and heading towards the depths of the peak.

In just a few breaths, the two of them had walked a distance of a hundred feet.

At this time, the soul-stirring wind became more and more violent, howling incessantly, as if hundreds of ghosts were wandering at night, extremely cold and chilling.

Not only that, the fog in the peak was thicker and dark in color, hindering Gu Yuan's vision and spiritual investigation.

With his strength, he can only detect a distance of about ten feet.

"rise!"

This distance was too disturbing. Gu Yuan did not hesitate and immediately took out the mirror.

In an instant, the golden mirror pattern shone brightly, emitting a dazzling divine light that dispersed all the mist. Within a hundred feet, everything was as bright as day.

Just as the soul mist dissipated, a dense group of strange little insects with blood-colored spots suddenly attacked Gu Yuan and the Heart-Eating Bug like a blood cloud.
