I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 684 Imperial Envoy on the Border, Refining the Immortal-Slaying Gourd!

There may still be those who disagree, but at this moment, faced with Gu Yuan's posture of suppressing all laws and absorbing divine fire, no one dared to speak.

Regardless of Gu Yuan's cultivation level, the fire surging in his heart at this moment truly represents the late-stage Mahayana combat power. Coupled with the Three Immortal Seals hovering in the air, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a top-tier Xuanhuang cultivator.

The Supreme Lord of Jade Capital and the Supreme Lord of Blazing Sun are the best proof.

Gu Yuan's battles in these few battles did not display overwhelming power, nor did they produce any earth-shattering phenomena or stir up any storms.

Only those who face him can truly understand that despair.

All laws are shrouded in darkness; even the most powerful trump card is incomplete and unusable.

Few people can call themselves "Fa Xiu" in front of him anymore.

"The Venerable One of Donghua, the Daoist lineage of Linchuan, obtained thirteen stones!"

The Taoist boy's voice rang out, echoing across the sky, signaling the end of the battle.

"Zhengyi, your Linchuan has truly produced a prodigy..."

Above the sky, the Crimson Cloud Daoist Master spoke in a low voice, looking at the Supreme One of the Righteous Ones.

"Senior Brother Yiyuan, you flatter me. I'm only at the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm; I still have a long way to go..."

Even Venerable Zhengyi was surprised by Gu Yuan's combat prowess, but faced with Venerable Yiyuan's praise, he smiled calmly and said humbly.

"It is precisely because the mid-stage of Mahayana that one is a true immortal seed; if it were the late-stage of Mahayana, it might not be so..."

Venerable Yi Yuan shook his head.

Only those who achieve the ultimate power in the later stages of a rebellion can become immortals.

Otherwise, wouldn't all those late-stage Mahayana cultivators in the Xuanhuang realm become immortals?
"It's just that the ancestral master is protecting us, and we've also had a few opportunities in the New World. As long as we can gain something from this campaign against Chenhui, all the lineages will have similar methods."

Zheng Yi Shangzun shook his head slightly, not wanting to attract too much attention from Gu Yuan.

However, after today's Dharma assembly, the name of Venerable Donghua will surely resound throughout the world.

It's impossible to suppress it now.

But the Venerable Zhengyi was not wrong.

Gu Yuan and his group were among those who entered the New Realm early, thus gaining the opportunity to refine more Immortal Seals, greatly increasing their combat power. On the other hand, Venerable Yan Yang and other late-stage Mahayana cultivators had not entered the New Realm and still possessed the Demonic Seals bestowed by their ancestor that they had not yet converted.

If this transformation is successful, one's strength will undoubtedly increase further.

"That being said, it is still quite remarkable that one could defeat Yu Jing and the others with this body. Those two immortal seals are definitely not ordinary..."

The leader of the Jade Cauldron Clan spoke, his tone filled with admiration.

"That's precisely why we can inspire all cultivators to bravely venture into new realms; otherwise, wouldn't this Dharma assembly have been held in vain?"

The leader of the Heavenly Capital Clan also smiled slightly.

Gu Yuan's "invincible posture" is precisely the strongest call to conquer the New Territories.

If you want to forge an immortal seal, go to the New Realm!
If you want to become invincible, head to the New Territories!
If you want to become the second Donghua Shangzun, go to the New Territories!
"The New Territories are a good place, but they are also a dangerous place. We still need to come up with a plan..."

The Supreme Venerable of the Chaotic Origin Dao Vein Heavenly Pot then slowly spoke.

The strongest member of the Hunyuan Dao Clan is Yan Fenghua.

However, during the previous demonic calamity, he was an ancient warrior who had already entered the realm of immortals, ascended to the Heavenly Palace, and was no longer in the mortal world.

Since the Venerable Jade Capital disliked worldly affairs, the position of sect leader fell to him.

He was a cautious man, and although he decided to conquer the New Territories, he still wanted to proceed with caution.

“The New Realm is not like us, who are all under the rule of the Heavenly Palace and work together. Instead, it is like a clump of weeds, growing wildly. If our many Mahayana disciples from Xuanhuang go there with thousands of disciples, we will surely be able to dominate this realm. What we lack now is nothing more than something to hold back.”

"According to the rules of the Legal Association, Linchuan is the leader, commanding the Hunyuan and Yuding lineages to conquer Chenhui, while I, Chixia, will lead Tiandu and plan for the Moonflower Realm."

“I, Chixia, never hesitate to act decisively. Since we are planning to establish a new realm, we cannot be stingy. I am willing to let Yanyang bring the Great Sun Immortal Bow into the Moonlit Realm!”

Yi Yuan Shangzun's eyes were cold, clearly indicating that he had already prepared a plan, and he spoke directly.

The leaders of the various factions all frowned, but said nothing.

The Great Sun Immortal Bow is the most powerful immortal treasure bestowed upon the Crimson Cloud Dao Clan by the Heavenly Palace. It can pierce through the sun and shoot down immortals. It was even directly given to them to conquer the New World.

We are not afraid of any mistakes.

After all, there might be some powerful treasures in the New Territories.

In any case, one can directly pray to the Heavenly Palace from the Heavenly Star Palace.

"Since you are so generous, senior brother, I cannot be stingy. I will bestow upon you the Heavenly Capital Immortal Seal for self-defense."

After a moment's thought, the leader of the Heavenly Capital Clan spoke.

The Heavenly Capital Immortal Seal is a defensive immortal treasure that can command all things in heaven and earth to become immortal spirits and protect all living beings. Its power is extraordinary. With one for offense and one for defense, it should be enough.

"good!"

Venerable Yi Yuan smiled slightly.

Then everyone's eyes immediately turned to the Venerable Zhengyi.

Chixia, ranked second, could only lead one lineage and head to the Moonlit Realm.

Linchuan wins the championship and conquers the wealthiest Chenhui Realm. What kind of immortal treasure will he bestow upon them?

The Venerable Zhengyi sighed inwardly, feeling somewhat conflicted.

In Linchuan, only three immortal treasures can suppress the mortal realm.

The Mirror of Returning to the Origin, the Great Yue Heavenly Bottle, and the Immortal-Slaying Gourd.

These three treasures are insight, defense, and killing.

With all three treasures present, the Linchuan Mountain Gate is safe and secure; the absence of any one of them would be inappropriate.

However, conquering the New Territories is a major undertaking, and it would be more convenient to bestow upon him the Immortal-Slaying Gourd.

However, once this treasure is bestowed, Linchuan will lose its unparalleled killing power and will be forced to remain confined to its mountain gates.

However... with the dragons gone, there shouldn't be any fighting or bloodshed. Planning for the new realm is more important.

"The Immortal-Slaying Gourd can be found in Linchuan!"

"With this gourd in hand, cultivators of the three lineages will be safe, and all those who dare to resist will be reduced to ashes."

Once the Venerable Zhengyi made up his mind, he no longer hesitated. As he raised his head, his eyes were filled with coldness.

"good!"

"In that case, my Jade Cauldron Dao Clan will take the [Great Dream Heavenly Robe] to assist Linchuan!"

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Jade Cauldron Cult nodded slightly and immediately followed suit.

The Great Dream Robe is an extremely powerful defensive immortal treasure. All magical attacks from the mortal realm are like manifestations of a dream. As long as the wearer is not in a dream, all magic will be harmless.

Those who can carry this garment are naturally top figures in the late Mahayana stage. Such figures, who have never slept for a thousand years, are naturally immune to all kinds of magic.

"Then my Hunyuan Dao lineage will carry the [Heavenly Principle Stele] to slay demons and eliminate evil!"

The Venerable One of the Heavenly Cauldrons slowly opened his mouth.

The Heavenly Principle Stele is a precious treasure bestowed by the Heavenly Palace to commemorate merits.

During a battle, this stele will measure the "merit" of the opposing cultivator and display it on the inscription. Those with low merit will have their magical power reduced naturally. If they are extremely wicked and have committed heinous crimes, they will be stripped of all their magical power and become mortals, who can be easily killed.

This can also be considered a powerful magical artifact for killing immortals.

However, to possess this treasure, the person holding the monument must be of impeccable moral character; otherwise, the treasure will be difficult to activate and may even backfire.

But since the Supreme Being of the Heavenly Cauldron has bestowed this treasure, he has naturally already chosen the person to hold it.

"In that case, let's discuss it according to this method."

"There's no time to lose. Three months from now, we'll send Mahayana cultivators directly into the New World. Once they've obtained the position of Hall Master of the Heavenly Star Palace, they can then guide a large number of disciples!"

Yi Yuan Shangzun looked at the group and finally discussed the time.

They all nodded, thus agreeing to the matter. ...

……

"By imperial decree, the Venerable Donghua is appointed Supreme Envoy for the Border Patrol, commanding eighty percent of the Mahayana cultivators from the Linchuan, Yuding, and Hunyuan lineages. Three months later, they shall proceed to the Chenhui Realm!"

"By imperial decree, Venerable Yanyang is appointed as the Imperial Envoy for the Border Patrol, commanding eighty percent of the Mahayana cultivators of the Crimson Cloud and Heavenly Capital Dao Lineages. Three months later, they shall proceed to the Moonlit Realm!"

"Those from all Mahayana sects within the five continents, except for one who remains behind, shall all accompany us. Those who do not wish to remain behind may also accompany us."

The discussions among the lineage leaders seemed slow, but their communication through divine sense was extremely rapid. In the blink of an eye, everything was settled. They then used their seals and edicts to order the attendants to read them aloud, informing all the sects and cultivators present.

"Follow the law!"

All the Mahayana cultivators present bowed their heads and obeyed the order.

In this mortal realm, the decisions made by the five major Daoist lineages are irrefutable.

Even though the combined strength of many sects is considerable, they are still no match for the Dao lineages that are suppressed by the Heavenly Palace and possess immortal treasures.

It is precisely because of such a foundation and heritage that the five major lineages were determined to conquer the New World.

Seeing Gu Yuan display his great power today, the various sects were also tempted.

The New Territories... indeed have many opportunities, otherwise there wouldn't be such a person.

Gu Yuan also bowed his head and accepted the imperial edict that fell from the sky.

This is a major matter to be discussed by all five factions, and necessary documents and ceremonies are still required.

At that moment, the supreme beings of the three lineages of Linchuan, Yuding, and Hunyuan, and even the three continents, all bowed their heads once more, paying homage to Gu Yuan, and shouted in unison:

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Gu Yuan stood in the sky, his Taoist robe billowing in the wind, his hair flying, his eyes shining, as if he were about to ride the wind, but he did not avoid it, but accepted the greeting calmly.

He deserves this bow.

Senior Sister and Cen Qingqing also stood up, but their hearts were churning like waves, and they could not calm down for a long time.

Dozens of Mahayana monks bowed their heads and paid their respects to Xuanhuang.

This scene, like an unbelievable myth, left the two women dizzy and disoriented.

Although she knew that her husband's cultivation was extraordinary and that he was a high-ranking official, she was still somewhat unclear about his status in the entire Divine Continent and Xuanhuang.

But today, I finally know.

Under the master of pulse diagnosis, who else but me?
This is a real contest of strength, and those who are not convinced must bow down now.

"I hope that all fellow Daoists will join forces!"

Gu Yuan smiled slightly, then put away the decree and returned to the Linchuan cloud, standing behind Tian Xuanzi.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Subsequently, the Mahayana practitioners from the other two lineages and two states also bowed in unison to pay their respects to Venerable Yanming.

Venerable Yanming bowed slightly, avoiding some of the impact, not daring to accept it all openly.

……

……

After the Dharma Assembly concluded, the divine senses of the five lineage leaders dissipated and they left this realm. The cultivators did not linger for long, bowed, and departed one after another. Three months later, they gathered at the mountain gates of the Linchuan and Chixia lineages.

Gu Yuan and the others also broke through the void and returned to the Linchuan Mountain Gate.

"Come to the Golden Palace!"

As soon as Gu Yuan and the others returned, he and Venerable Jiuchuan heard the voice of Venerable Zhengyi.

The two exchanged a glance, and with Gu Yuan's modesty, Venerable Jiuchuan took the lead, transforming into a stream of light and entering the Golden Hall, with Gu Yuan following closely behind.

Tian Xuanzi and his senior sister, among others, returned to their respective cave dwellings.

It goes without saying that the Supreme Lord Zhengyi was entrusting important matters concerning the conquest of the New World; they were not the rulers and did not need to participate.

Inside the Golden Hall, there was only the Supreme One, with two prayer cushions in front of him.

"sit down!"

The Venerable Zheng Yi smiled slightly, and Gu Yuan and the other person bowed and sat down on the prayer mat without any further formalities.

"Don't hold on any longer, open your heart..."

After the two sat down, Venerable Zhengyi did not mention the New World, but looked at Gu Yuan with a smile in his eyes.

"You can't hide it from your senior brother!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan smiled wryly, then opened his shirt, revealing his bright red chest.

When fighting against Venerable Yanyang, the Immortal Seal of Restriction was useless, but it slightly restrained the power of the Immortal Seal of Samadhi Divine Fire. Then, Gu Yuan directly used the power of his mental realm to swallow the Samadhi Divine Fire into it and suppress it.

However, although the Mind Realm was created by the Golden Crow Immortal Bone, the supernatural powers created in this realm are its own Mind Supernatural Powers, Mind Fire, and Strength, not the Great Sun True Fire. Therefore, it cannot completely resist the burning of the Samadhi Divine Fire.

However, the "Immortal Body Seal of the Thunder Spirit that Suppresses All Laws" has another ability: to control oneself and command all laws, so that everything is under control, whether it is a disaster from within or from without.

Even if his mental realm cannot withstand the Samadhi Divine Fire, with the "Immortal Body Seal of the Thunder Spirit that Forbids All Laws," Gu Yuan can hold out for an unknown amount of time, enough to end the battle.

It was precisely because the Five Lineage Masters knew this that they remained silent.

However, Gu Yuan's mental realm had already been burned, and the realm was collapsing, showing signs of destruction.

His injuries had not yet healed. He originally planned to wait until things were settled before seeking out Tian Xuanzi to resolve the matter, but he did not expect that the Supreme One of the Righteous Ones had spoken up, so he immediately stopped hiding his intentions.

"Wow!"

When the Venerable Zhengyi pointed his finger, sweet dew rose from some unknown place deep in the Linchuan River and fell into Gu Yuan's mind realm.

"boom!"

In an instant, the fire in his heart burned, the realm was rebuilt, and all injuries were rapidly healed.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Gu Yuan immediately bowed and thanked him.

The Venerable Zhengyi waved his hand: "This Samadhi Divine Fire burns your essence, energy, and spirit. Even Tianxuan's Glazed Medicine Master Seal is difficult to restore. That's why I'm helping you. It's the foundation of the Dao lineage, so there's no need to be polite."

Without further ado, he reached out and summoned a ball of purple-gold light from the depths of the misty clouds within the grand formation of Linchuan Mountain, which then appeared as a purple-gold gourd.

The purple-gold gourd sword light surged forth, seemingly eager to be used. As long as the Supreme One gave the order, it would immediately unleash its sword energy and kill the two people in front of it.

Gu Yuan and his companion also sensed this fierce aura and immediately felt a chill run down their spines.

This treasure is extremely fierce and doesn't recognize fellow disciples or lineages at all.

The Venerable Zhengyi smiled slightly: "You all probably already know about this treasure. It is none other than my Linchuan Immortal-Slaying Treasure, the Immortal-Slaying Gourd!"

"This time, when you two go to the New Territories, you will be in charge of this treasure."

"With this treasure, we can surely eliminate all those who dare to resist."

"But the New Territories is, after all, a place where one can pray to the heavens, so we must still proceed with caution."

When the Venerable Zhengyi said this, his expression turned solemn: "Immortal treasures cannot be entrusted to others. Apart from the two of you, this treasure cannot be lent to anyone else."

"If either of you enters the new realm and one of you takes a magical treasure out to subdue demons, the other person cannot accompany you. Instead, you must remain at the gate of the Heavenly Star Palace's grand formation. If you sense that a magical treasure is missing, you must immediately cast a spell to bring it back and then quickly send someone to inform me."

"The New Territories are far away, isolated beyond the borders, and I can hardly perceive them. Remember not to be careless in your actions."

The immortal treasure is precious, and these are the words of an experienced person. The two of them immediately became solemn and responded in deep voices.

“Refining a celestial treasure is no small matter. Over the next two months, I will gradually loosen the restrictions, and the two of you can slowly refine it.”

Countless supreme restrictions are engraved on the immortal treasures to prevent them from being lost. Even those in the late Mahayana stage must use the power of water to slowly refine them, with no shortcuts whatsoever.

However, the two were not in a hurry. They immediately followed the instructions of the Supreme One and began the refining process step by step.
