I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 682 If I cannot enter the stage to fight, wouldn't this Dharma assembly be utterly bleak?
Jade Capital Thunder Pivot Immortal Seal!

This is a renowned immortal seal recorded in the "Immortal Seal Heavenly Treasure Record" within the Hunyuan Dao lineage.

This seal is different from ordinary immortal seals; once it is formed, it is permanent. For this seal, casting it is only the beginning.

Initially, this seal took form as a crude pavilion. Cultivators standing inside could avoid lightning, water, fire, and all kinds of magical tribulations, but its defensive power was limited. Even slightly powerful lightning and flames could shatter the pavilion.

However, cultivators can collect immortal materials and spiritual treasures, and use their magic power to carve them into the pavilions, "decorating" them, and eventually transforming them into a "Jade Capital on Earth".

The more magnificent and ornate the Jade Capital is, the stronger its defenses become. In fact, the "Thunder Pivot" within it can gather countless incoming attacks and strike them back with thunder.

This is an upgradeable immortal seal, like a magic weapon, and completely different from ordinary immortal seals.

The Venerable Jade Capital has been practicing this seal for countless years.

Auspicious clouds floated in the Jade Capital, and thunder patterns appeared.

The window sill hides the stars, and the rainbow beam has a dragon.

This is already a true "Jade Capital on Earth," a collection of countless rare and precious materials.

The Supreme Venerable of Jade Capital stood in this capital, like a celestial king on earth, his gaze calmly fixed on the Supreme Venerable of Crossing Dust.

"If you possess any immortal techniques, fellow Daoist, feel free to attack..."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Duchen narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of coldness lurking beneath his kind expression: "Then I shall experience firsthand the methods of the Heavenly Palace Dao lineage!"

"clang!"

A resounding bell rang out, and a flurry of dazzling images appeared.

The golden Zen verses above the Venerable Duchen's head flowed, and it seemed as if ten thousand people were chanting them in the void.

"All bodies are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows..."

The verses flowed, and the mysterious power flowed through the void. All the power that made the body seem like a dream silently flowed towards the Supreme Venerable of the Jade Capital.

The Supreme Lord of the Jade Capital stood with his hands behind his back, beneath the Jade Palace, without even raising his hand.

"boom!"

But the Jade Palace was imbued with spirit, and moved naturally. Countless starlight flowed across the sky and fell into the window sills. In an instant, the Milky Way flowed and condensed around the Jade Palace, forming a vast Milky Way.

Surrounded by stars, with the Jade Palace suspended in mid-air, and the Jade Capital standing within, it truly resembles an immortal descending to earth.

"All bodies are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows..."

The sound of the verses grew louder and louder, as if millions of people were chanting them. The power of the unseen surged like a tidal wave, trying to cross the Milky Way and the Jade Capital, and turn the physical body of the Supreme Being of the Jade Capital into nothingness.

But within the flow of those stars, billions of worlds are separated.

Although immortal techniques are powerful, they are still insufficient to traverse billions of worlds to kill enemies.

Even as the chanting of the verses shook the heavens and the earth, the Supreme Lord of the Jade Capital remained standing with his hands behind his back, showing no sign of injury.

Jade Capital Thunder Pivot Immortal Seal: Star Sea Breaking the Sky.

This seal is a frame. If it is carved with seventh-grade spiritual materials, it can resist all kinds of Mahayana immortal techniques. However, if it is decorated with "immortal materials", it can resist immortal techniques.

The window sills are made of the celestial material, Star Sea Heavenly Stone.

This stone serves as a window, stirring the starry sky, isolating heaven and earth, no longer in this world, allowing all laws to assail me, making it difficult to find my body.

The Supreme Lord of Jade Capital has only cultivated this one seal in his life, but it is not the only immortal technique he possesses.

With this seal in hand, one has enough immortal materials and can use all kinds of immortal techniques.

The Milky Way has broken through the sky; all dreams and illusions are unattainable.

"What a trick!"

Upon seeing this, Venerable Duchen raised his white eyebrows, his eyes flashing even colder, and with a wave of his hand, another radiant immortal seal flew up.

"boom!"

"call!"

"Crack!"

Although this seal was bathed in radiant light and filled with ethereal immortal energy, as soon as it appeared, a fierce wind arose, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the void cracked open on the entire cloud platform.

The Celestial Phenomenon Sect's Secret Immortal Seal: The Celestial Phenomenon Myriad Tribulations Immortal Seal!

This seal can manipulate celestial phenomena, shattering the void, unleashing lightning and thunder, howling winds, and bringing down countless calamities upon the human world, using the power of heaven and earth to reduce enemy cultivators to dust.

In an instant, the view from the cloud platform became obscured.

Countless bolts of lightning surged down, as if lightning had crisscrossed for tens of thousands of years since the beginning of time, never ceasing. The gale that originally hung high in the sky also suddenly fell, carrying a terrifying power capable of tearing apart mountains, and tightly wrapped around the jade palace.

Most importantly, the void cracked open, and countless chaotic void currents roared in, threatening to tear everything in existence apart.

This is the Immortal Seal of Slaughter.

Although Xinghai Duantian was isolated from heaven and earth and not in this world, the power of celestial phenomena was endless. The terrifying void turbulence directly tore everything apart, and the originally brilliant starlight slowly dimmed and fell silent one by one.

I will devour the entire starry sea, and see how you sever the heavens and earth.

But the Supreme Being of Jade Capital remained motionless. Only on the rainbow beam of the Jade Palace, a lifelike dragon shadow descended and swam endlessly within the Jade Palace.

The Golden Dragon Soars Through the Heavens with the Jade Capital Thunder Pivot Immortal Seal.

"clang!"

A chaotic current of void surged forth, and countless bolts of lightning fell, yet when they struck the Jade Capital, they produced a metallic clang.

Moreover, as if struck by thunder and fire, the Jade Capital Palace did not dim in the slightest; instead, it shone with spiritual light, becoming even more dazzling.

The golden dragon soars through the heavens, devouring countless calamities to forge its body; all tribulations are nourishment for it.

This is the immortal power bestowed by the celestial material [Golden Armored Flood Dragon Celestial Jade].

The Supreme Lord of Jade Capital is also one of the few in the Dao lineage who can refine the Demon Seal Immortal Material on his own without having to go to the New World.

The chaotic void, thunder, and gale only made the Jade Capital Palace even more magnificent, with spiritual patterns surging within, shining like candlelight and bright pearls.

Heaven and earth may perish, but my palace will never perish.

In a daze, this capital city already possessed an air of disregarding all laws.

Venerable Duchen's expression immediately darkened.

Both of his immortal seals are of extremely high quality in the mortal realm, and their power should not be underestimated.

He was confident he could defeat even a late-stage Mahayana cultivator.

Unexpectedly, even the simultaneous use of the two seals failed to break through the defenses of the Jade Capital Venerable.

This Jade Capital has incorporated more than one type of immortal material, and has become "solid" to an unimaginable degree.

This is no longer just one immortal seal, but the sum of several immortal seals.

However, Venerable Duchen only appeared solemn and showed no sign of panic.

His body is like a dream, and he can evade all laws; no law can lock onto his true form.

He was also invincible.

At worst, this match will end in a draw.

"It's rude to come and not reciprocate!"

"Fellow Daoist, let's go to the capital and fight!"

The Jade Capital Venerable saw through the Du Chen Venerable's thoughts, and immediately chuckled. The palaces and pavilions flew up and landed towards the Du Chen Venerable.

Auspicious clouds floated, thunder patterns appeared, and strange phenomena rose between palaces and pavilions. A powerful suction force suddenly surged out and attacked Venerable Duchen.

"The Venerable One Who Crosses the Dust" suddenly flew uncontrollably towards the palaces and pavilions, like a feather.

After the battle with Venerable Guiyun, everyone understood that the body of "Venerable Duchen" was merely a dreamlike illusion, not the real body.

The physical body is impermanent, constantly coming together and going apart.

If one does not grasp the true nature of things, what use are all the laws to me?

This is truly an extremely superior method of avoiding calamity, or rather, a method of replacing calamity.

The dreamlike body enters the calamity, its essence gathers and disperses, and it emerges again without further calamity.

"Crossing the Dust!"

Suddenly, the Jade Capital Venerable spoke up, directly calling out the name of the Du Chen Venerable. At the same time, the sound of golden bells rang out in the Jade Capital, clear and melodious.

"I'm here!"

As the golden bell rang, an aged voice suddenly responded from the void to the side, and the previously fluctuating body instantly coalesced. In that instant, the outcome was decided.

Du Chen Shangzun suddenly realized what was happening, and his body dissipated like a dream, but it was too late.

As the Jade Capital descended, a flash of light appeared, and the Venerable Duchen suddenly appeared in the pavilion, standing opposite the Venerable Jade Capital.

Thunder surged, and countless tribulations hung in the air, landing on the head of Venerable Duchen.

Once you enter the Jade Capital, you enter the seal.

No matter how high your cultivation level is, you cannot escape the control of the seal master.

"Fellow Daoist, this golden bell is truly wondrous..."

The outcome was decided. Even if he were in a dream, he could not defeat the person before him. Venerable Duchen smiled and bowed, admitting defeat. However, his gaze fell on the octagonal golden bell that had appeared under the eaves at some unknown time.

"It's just a name-calling bell."

The Venerable Jade Capital smiled slightly.

When this bell rings, it calls out the name of the enemy cultivator. As long as it does not exceed one major realm, the enemy cultivator will surely respond and his body will appear instantly, causing all thoughts to pause for a moment.

It was forged from the [Crimson Dust Immortal Stone] that he had painstakingly obtained.

"As expected of the one who holds the reins of the Dao lineage..."

Venerable Duchen sighed softly, and without lingering, turned and left.

With the immortal techniques transformed from this immortal stone, the Jade Capital Venerable now possesses three immortal seals. With such a foundation, his defeat is not entirely unjust.

"The Supreme Being of Jade Capital, the Primordial Daoist Lineage Obtains Three Stones!"

The voice of the Taoist boy rang out, resounding throughout the heavens.

"What a wondrous Jade Capital Immortal Seal!"

For a time, not only were many Heavenly Spirit cultivators discussing this, but the Mahayana cultivators in the sky were also filled with emotion.

The Jade Capital Thunder Pivot Immortal Seal uses a clever method: obtaining one immortal material grants one immortal technique, eliminating the need to refine other seals. Its power amplification is far faster than ordinary immortal seals, truly making one seal generate ten thousand techniques.

With this seal in hand, what is there to fear in not being able to laugh and defy the world?

For a moment, the Mahayana cultivators who had originally had ideas pondered silently and temporarily gave up the idea of ​​competing for it.

"Fellow Daoists, is there anything else you wish to learn from?"

The Supreme Lord of Jade Capital raised his gaze and looked at the leader of the various factions.

The Hunyuan Dao Clan has only obtained three stones so far. To win, they need to win another match. Even if no one challenges them in the third match, they can still obtain three more stones. In this way, they will have nine stones, which will be enough to win.

Therefore, he was eager to win another match.

Above the heavens, several late-stage Mahayana practitioners, their eyes gleaming, seemed to be weighing their options.

Especially the Jade Cauldron Daoist lineage.

Duchen Shangzun has already obtained three stones. If he wins another battle, he will have six stones and will have a chance to reach the top.

But... the methods of the Jade Capital Venerable are rather frightening.

"I've come to learn your immortal techniques, senior brother!"

After a brief silence, a young man in white robes, led by the Jade Cauldron Daoist lineage, stepped into the Cloud Platform.

Yu Ding has already won one battle; if he wins again, it will be a great victory, so he must fight for it.

"Wait a minute!"

“I know that my junior brother’s skills are superb, but Yu Ding has already fought once. Why don’t I go first, and then my junior brother can fight next?”

But at that moment, from within the Crimson Cloud Dao Meridian, a barefoot boy with flying red hair and a red mark between his eyebrows stood up and shouted to the Jade Cauldron Dao Meridian.

The situation has come to this point.

Every battle is extremely important.

Missing one battle means missing three stones for the cauldron.

If you drag it out to the very end, even if you have unparalleled strength and no one dares to fight you, you will at most get six stones.

It still can't beat Linchuan.

Therefore, to win, you must seize every opportunity.

Chixia has already watched two matches and can't delay any longer. No matter who wins this match, Chixia's chances are running out.

Yu Ding Dao Mai pondered for a moment, but then gave up.

He wasn't absolutely certain to begin with, but now that the Crimson Cloud Cult is willing to fight again, it's fine. As long as he can win in the second round, there's still a chance.

"Then please go first, senior brother."

After speaking, he bowed and slowly withdrew.

The barefoot youth from the Crimson Cloud Dao Clan smiled slightly and prepared to step onto the stage.

But just then, a clear voice rang out from above the clouds: "Wait!"

"Senior brother's methods are formidable, how about we save the main event? I'll face him first, what do you say?"

Upon hearing this sound, all the Mahayana cultivators on the cloud turned their gazes in shock.

Above the clouds above Linchuan, a handsome Taoist priest, with an elegant bearing, rose up, a smile on his lips, and bowed to the heavens.

It was Gu Yuan!

"Junior Brother Gu!"

“We know that you are exceptionally talented and have extraordinary skills, but the Five Veins Dharma Assembly is a major event of Xuanhuang, so let’s not joke around.”

The barefoot boy didn't speak, but within the Crimson Cloud Dao Meridian, a Mahayana cultivator had already spoken out in a cold voice.

This final battle is reserved for those in the later stages of Mahayana Buddhism.

What's a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator doing getting involved?!

The other Mahayana practitioners, seeing this, all turned their gazes toward it, revealing expressions of interest.

How could someone who can cultivate to the point of Mahayana enlightenment be a fool?
The fact that they dare to speak in this situation means they must have something to rely on.

But... Linchuan already has seven shi (a unit of grain), isn't that enough? They still want to cause trouble?
Venerable Jiuchuan also looked solemn, unsure of Gu Yuan's meaning, but he did not stop him, instead simply observing how the situation developed.

"Junior Brother Gu, what makes you say that?"

The barefoot boy also raised his eyes to look at Gu Yuan, but his eyes were filled with real fire, and a terrifying pressure came like a tide.

He is the number one person below the leader of the Crimson Cloud Path, a top cultivator who has cultivated two immortal seals and possesses several great supernatural powers.

Gu Yuanxian's seal is profound, but it is only at the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm. To be presumptuous in front of him is not enough.

Gu Yuan knew that everyone would be dissatisfied and shocked.

Given the situation, he had no choice but to fight.

Its mind-body supernatural powers granted him unprecedented perception, and he vaguely knew that the outcome of this battle should lie between Yu Ding, Chi Xia, and himself, Lin Chuan.

Since the Nine Rivers Venerable is slightly weaker, Linchuan's only chance to ultimately win is for him to take the plunge.

It would be fine to watch Chixia and Yuding fight another round, but it wouldn't be ideal for him to fight two rounds against Mahayana cultivators by himself. If he were to reap the rewards at the end, he would likely be subject to even more criticism.

Since that's the case, then only the ultimate power can subdue everything!
They all fought!
"boom!!"

Gu Yuan didn't say much, but a surging flame surrounded his heart, and then terrifying blood energy shot straight into the sky, shining brightly for thousands of miles and illuminating the boundless land.

Most importantly, above his head, celestial clouds flowed, and three indistinct seals floated up and down.

The mind is like the sun, and the Qi and blood are in the later stages of Mahayana Buddhism!

Immortal clouds flow, and the three immortal seals shine with brilliance!

"Senior brother, this Dharma assembly is hosted by Chixia. According to the rules of Yuntai, as long as you pass the fire barrier, you can enter the platform to fight."

"I am not using my late-stage Mahayana cultivation to suppress my realm and deliberately engage in combat with you fellow Daoists."

"I merely wish to experience the skills of my fellow disciples, given my mid-stage Mahayana cultivation level!"

Gu Yuan stood in the sky, his voice clear and resonant.

However, his aura surged to the heavens, and the Three Immortal Seals floated in the air, their awe-inspiring power causing all the cultivators to dare not look directly at him.

"With my vital energy and blood in such a state, and having refined the Three Immortal Seals, how can I be content if I cannot enter the arena for battle? Would this Dharma Assembly then be utterly tarnished?"
