I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 720 The True Form of Tai Su, Dragon Whale Swallows and Spits!
"not good!"

This scene was naturally witnessed by the two immortals, Yuheng and his companion. Yuheng's expression immediately changed, revealing shock and anger.

"Lock!"

He gave a soft shout, made a hand seal, and celestial light fell into the jade plate, flying far away towards the celestial storehouse.

"Clang clang clang!"

In an instant, thousands of golden locks appeared above the Immortal Treasury, and an extremely powerful force emerged above the clouds, attempting to lock up the vast expanse of primordial clouds.

"My body is like a furnace condensing cloud sprouts, breaking through the shackles that bound me to the edge of the path..."

Seeing this, Gu Yuan simply murmured aloud, his voice hollow and melancholic, as if it came from the vast river of time.

An indescribable "life light" surged from the acupoints all over his body. This "life light" contained an unknowable and mysterious power. All shackles were useless in front of him. The endless primordial clouds, like swallows returning to their nests, continuously flowed into his body.

"boom!!"

Behind Gu Yuan, the Yin and Yang energies surged forth once more, rising into the sky with unparalleled magnificence. This startled the immortal officials in the Tai Su Immortal Treasury, who all stopped refining and looked over in astonishment.

They had no choice but to stop; Gu Yuan had absorbed almost all the cloud energy in the Tai Su Immortal Treasury, so they couldn't refine it anymore.

"call!"

The clouds roared and gathered, like a vast army, possessing the momentum of a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing.

The illusory cloud sprout above Gu Yuan's head, which resembled both a seedling and a tree, grew even taller, reaching four feet in height.

"Oops!"

Upon seeing this, the Jade Balance Immortal's face turned ashen.

If they were outside, as the Lord of the Immortal Palace, he could control the Heavenly Palace's restrictions to isolate everything. Not to mention Gu Yuan, even the Jade Void Immortal would not be able to enter the Immortal Treasury to absorb the Primordial Cloud Qi.

But now, Gu Yuan is already inside the Immortal Treasury, like a mouse that has entered a rice jar. No matter how strong the external restrictions are, or how thick the rice jar is, they cannot stop the mouse from eating the rice.

Most of the restrictions in the Immortal Treasury were outside the Cloud Wall. Now that he had opened all the restrictions inside the Immortal Treasury, he still couldn't stop Gu Yuan.

If Gu Yuan continues refining it like this, the Primordial Cloud Qi accumulated in the Immortal Treasury over thousands of years will probably be completely consumed. At that time, if he wants to condense the Primordial Cloud Sprout again, he will have to personally go deep into the Primordial Chaos.

The Tai Su Cloud Sprout is of great importance; it is the most precious item among fourth-grade immortals. Although he often uses this card to obtain fourth-grade immortals, everything is under his control, and he can condense the cloud sprout at any time.

If Gu Yuan really exhausts all the Tai Su Cloud Qi, then his Immortal Palace will truly be unable to refine Cloud Sprouts, and at that time, things will be truly troublesome.

In the primordial chaos, condensing cloud buds is extremely difficult, and he absolutely did not want to enter.

Most importantly, if Gu Yuan's condensation speed is so fast, will what is condensed still be a cloud sprout?

It's probably a cloud tree!
If this tree were to connect with Tai Su and absorb immortal energy, how much faster would its cultivation speed be?
Is it possible that it will achieve the true form of Tai Su within a few decades?

Wasn't all of this a case of making things worse than they were?

"Good boy!"

Jade Balance Immortal's eyes turned cold, and he immediately stood up, preparing to personally enter the Immortal Treasury.

Now that the Immortal Treasury's restrictions are useless, only his personal intervention can stop Gu Yuan.

"Haha, is Senior Brother Yuheng here?"

But just then, a cheerful voice suddenly rang out outside the Celestial Palace. Then, celestial officials cleared the way, and a dragon soared through the clouds. A middle-aged Taoist priest with slightly graying temples and eyes as bright as stars led a large number of celestial officials and attendants, and floated in.

Ning Xubai, the Lord of the Heavenly Law Hall!
Gu Yuan knew that if he could enter the Tai Su Immortal Treasury, it would definitely cause a great commotion.

If the commotion becomes too great, the Lord of the Immortal Palace will surely be unable to sit still and will definitely step in to stop it.

After all, the Immortal Palace was someone else's territory, and it would be easy for them to thwart his plans. So, on the way to the Immortal Palace, Gu Yuan had already given orders to Ning Xubai, asking for his assistance.

Now the time is just right, and Ning Xubai has arrived with the Heavenly Law.

Immortal Yuheng's expression was uncertain, knowing that he had been defeated by Gu Yuan this time.

But he couldn't bear to watch Gu Yuan refine the Tai Su Cloud Qi accumulated over a thousand years and create the Tai Su Cloud Wood.

"call out!"

He flashed and activated the restrictions of the Jade Balance Immortal Palace, trying to stop Ning Xubai. Then he transformed into a stream of light, intending to enter the Immortal Treasury and stop Gu Yuan.

"Brother Yuheng, obstructing a fellow cultivator is a grave offense!"

Ning Xubaiyu was blocked outside the hall by the restrictions and could not enter for a while, but his expression remained unchanged. He simply waved his sleeve, and in an instant, a shimmering immortal rope, like a dragon soaring through the air, ignored all the restrictions of the Immortal Palace and passed through the void at an incredible speed, directly binding the Jade Balance Immortal.

Binding Immortal Rope!
This is the ultimate celestial treasure among the four ranks of celestial officials in the Heavenly Palace. Few immortals and gods below the Jade Void realm can escape the bondage of this rope.

Once this rope is used, the immortal is instantly bound and unable to move.

It is a precious treasure of the Heavenly Law Hall, which governs the laws of Heaven.

However, this treasure also has limitations. If the immortals do not violate the immortal laws, it is quite difficult to activate this treasure.

Now, no matter how much Tai Su Yun Qi Gu Yuan absorbs, it is all the responsibility of Yu Heng Immortal's indulgence, and the fault does not lie with Gu Yuan.

Even if Gu Yuan made a mistake, it was only a minor one, which Ning Xubai could judge on his own.

The Jade Balance Immortal's attempt to obstruct the Fourth-Rank Immortal Official from refining the Cloud Sprout was a grave offense.

It's like killing a deity!

Ning Xubai didn't hold back and immediately shouted coldly, "Does the Immortal Salary Palace intend to lure the immortals into a trap and kill them in secret?"

A large hat was placed on top first.

But to be honest, it's not a big deal.

Your Immortal Palace did not produce Tai Su Cloud Sprouts, so my junior brother came to ask for them. What is wrong with that?
You promised that you could refine the Primordial Cloud Qi on your own and asked my junior brother to put it into the treasury. What's wrong with that?

My junior brother was unaware of the difficulty of refining the Tai Su Cloud Sprout, and because you had previously stated that it was forbidden to refine it or leave the storage, he absorbed some more cloud energy in a moment of haste. What is wrong with that?

But you, instead of producing cloud sprouts, invited my junior brother to put them in storage. Now my junior brother is at a critical stage in refining cloud sprouts, yet you want to hurt him. Could it be that you really have the intention to kill the immortal official?

"boom!!"

With Ning Xubai's cold snort, the celestial officials behind him beat drums and blew horns. In an instant, lightning flashed across the sky, turning into a cage that enveloped the entire Celestial Palace.

This is a sign that someone is about to capture and bring the perpetrator to justice.

"Ning Xubai, don't make baseless accusations and fabricate charges!"

"This kid is overexerting himself with the Primordial Cloud Qi, disregarding the rules of the immortals. I merely wanted to correct him and bring him back to the heavenly rules. What crime has he committed?"

Jade Balance Immortal was bound by the Immortal Binding Rope and could not move for a moment, but his expression remained unchanged, and he questioned in a cold voice.

"The Lord of Donghua Palace is unaware of the rules of your Immortal Salary Palace. He simply followed your instructions and diligently refined the Cloud Sprout in the Immortal Treasury. What wrong has he done?"

"As for the amount of cloud energy needed to refine the cloud bud, isn't that something you decide? How would outsiders know?"

"All I know is that you disregarded the cultivation of a fourth-rank celestial official, violated the celestial laws of the Heavenly Palace, and acted recklessly. This is a grave crime!"

Ning Xubai paid no heed to the explanation from the Jade Balance Immortal, and merely sneered.

Absorbing excessive amounts of Tai Su Yun Qi, even if it's a crime, needs to be investigated afterward, which he doesn't understand...

He personally witnessed Yuheng Immortal disregarding the rules of the immortal realm and attacking a fourth-rank immortal official within his own immortal palace.

"you!"

Immortal Yuheng's face darkened with anger, and he wanted to say something more, but he was stopped by the person beside him.

"Senior brother, please be careful with your words," said the Taoist with a radiant face.

Jade Balance Immortal finally calmed down.

The entire Linchuan Immortal Clan is in cahoots. Now that Ning Xubai has arrived, he will naturally risk everything to speak up for that brat from the Dou Shu Palace. Everything he says is meaningless.

Ning Xubai looked at the radiant Taoist priest and said coldly, "So it is the Palace Master of the Heavenly Crafts Hall. What is it? Could it be that you are also hiding in this hall, plotting to harm a fourth-rank immortal official?"

Ning Xubai has been in charge of the Heavenly Law Hall for decades and is already a "veteran of the Heavenly Palace." He immediately threw out a "crime" as soon as he opened his mouth.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Crafts Hall Master, Immortal Crimson Rope, merely smiled faintly and said, "Hall Master Ning, please be careful with your words."

"The Heavenly Law Hall holds the Heavenly Laws and wields great power and authority, but it must still act in accordance with the law. Arbitrarily fabricating baseless charges would damage the demeanor of an immortal."

Ning Xubai merely sneered: "The demeanor of an immortal? The Lord of Dou Shu Palace has just entered the Heavenly Palace, with not a trace of karma, yet he was forced to personally enter the palace to condense cloud buds. Is this your demeanor?"

Upon hearing this, the two fell silent.

"There was a reason for this; it wasn't an attempt to make things difficult."

The Crimson Rope Immortal shook his head slightly, naturally unable to admit to the accusation, but simply smiled and said, "I observe that the Lord of Dou Shu Palace is a genius of heaven and man, with exceptional immortal bones. It seems that he is cultivating the Thunder Scripture? I have a Purple Cloud Immortal Stone here, which may be given to the Lord of Dou Shu Palace to help him cultivate."

Things have developed to this point, meaning that his Heavenly Capital Immortal Vein has already lost a round.

If this continues, it will truly become a farce.

Ning Xubai's Heavenly Law Hall truly wields great power. If he were to capture and interrogate Senior Brother Yuheng today, no one else would dare to say anything.

After all, the Immortal Palace was indeed in the wrong this time.

Since that's the case, let's just admit defeat and end this match first.

Upon hearing this, Immortal Yuheng's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, but he remained silent, clearly acknowledging that he had lost the round.

Ning Xubai narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, but did not make a decision for Gu Yuan. He simply said, "This matter concerns the Lord of Dou Shu Palace. In any case, we should wait for him to be released from the warehouse before making any further decisions."

"It's natural."

The Red Rope Immortal immediately responded.

Ning Xubai then descended from the clouds without ceremony and leisurely flew towards the Immortal Palace, clearly intending to stay there for the time being.

Yuheng Immortal naturally did not stop them. Seeing this, Ning Xu waved his white sleeves and put away the Immortal Binding Rope.

The Red Rope Immortal chuckled and instructed the fairy maidens to prepare a celestial banquet, so that the three of them could gather together.

……

……

Gu Yuan was aware of everything in the outside world, but it was not clear to him. His mind was currently focused on refining the Tai Su Cloud Sprout.

"boom!!"

The surging primordial clouds rushed in like a tsunami, each wisp of cloud like smoke and dust, carrying the ash and impurities from the creation of chaos, extremely mixed.

But all the acupoints on his body glowed, like thousands of furnaces spewing forth. The rolling primordial clouds fell into them and were refined in an instant, leaving only strands of pure "primordial essence" that fell into the phantom above his head.

As strands of "Primordial Essence" fell, the illusory image became increasingly solid, and a physical entity could be vaguely seen, resembling a swaying, radiant jade tree.

Through this jade tree, one can vaguely perceive another, even more mysterious space.

So elegant and ethereal!

That is the ethereal celestial energy at the beginning of heaven and earth, the origin of all creation. It is the foundation for immortals to cultivate rapidly, and its calm and balanced nature surpasses countless elixirs and miraculous medicines.

However, Gu Yuan was not in a hurry to condense the Tai Su Cloud Sprout.

The reason why the Immortal Lotus of Sent-down is so powerful lies in the word "sent-down." It summons the destiny master from the long river of time and space, and naturally has endless power.

However, after this, although the destiny of "gathering qi and condensing buds" will still exist, the power of the destiny holder will dissipate and will not be as strong.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it just so happened to be located in this Immortal Treasury, so Gu Yuan naturally wanted to maximize his gains.

He exerted all his strength to condense the "essence of Tai Su," half of which fell into the cloud bud to help it solidify, and the other half fell into his own body to help him achieve the "True Form of Tai Su."

The Primordial True Form is an unparalleled divine power of the immortal body.

The five internal organs do not wither, the nine orifices are unobstructed, and the soul dies but the body does not.

It is important to know that the soul is an extremely important part of a cultivator. Even an immortal will perish if their soul is scattered, leaving only a corpse.

However, this would not be the case if one had successfully cultivated the Tai Su True Form.

The soul has already merged into the body, so even if someone uses a soul-soul magic to destroy the soul, the body will not perish.

The body will transform into pure light and fly away on its own, escaping the darkness. After a period of seclusion, consciousness will re-emerge within the five internal organs and the sea of ​​consciousness.

This consciousness is not a newborn, yet it is also a newborn, as if breaking through the mystery of the womb. On the day of awakening, one can understand everything that happened before, and one's temperament will not change in any way; it will still be you.

Even the Tai Su True Form at its peak has its soul hidden within its body, unrestricted by any soul-based laws, appearing as if it were soulless, yet still possessing a spirit.

This is an extremely profound physical supernatural power, and very few people in the Heavenly Palace have truly mastered it.

This is because the primordial energy is rare and the essence of primordial energy is hard to find. If it is used to cultivate the true form of primordial energy, then it cannot be used to amplify magical power. It is difficult to have both.

Only by increasing one's magical power can one have the chance to become a Jade Void Immortal. Therefore, apart from a small number of immortals, most people focus on cultivation.

However, today I have requested to enter your body, and I am in the Immortal Treasury of the Immortal Salary Hall. Both of these methods can be obtained, and both have extremely strong foundations.

Gu Yuan naturally wouldn't let it go and focused all his efforts on refining it.

……

Time flies, and March has passed in the blink of an eye.

The golden light emanating from Gu Yuan's body had become extremely faint.

"Time is up……"

Gu Yuan sighed inwardly, knowing that the last bit of power of fate was about to dissipate.

Although he had not yet achieved the true form of Tai Su after three months, he could not delay any longer.

Without further hesitation, he looked up at the sky, and in an instant, all the primordial essence fell into the "primordial cloud sprout".

At this moment, the Tai Su Cloud Sprout no longer resembled a "tender sprout" at all. Instead, it solidified into a four-foot-tall, radiant jade tree.

"call out!"

The jade tree transformed into a stream of light, directly penetrating Gu Yuan's dantian and taking deep root.

Then the jade tree emitted a fluorescent glow and made a rustling sound, its roots seemingly penetrating into the void, an indescribable realm.

"boom!"

Then, an extremely terrifying azure immortal energy roared in and surged into Gu Yuan's body.

Gu Yuan let out a comfortable groan, as if he were soaking in a warm hot spring.

Moreover, the Azure Celestial Qi surged so fast that Gu Yuan didn't even have time to refine it, and he felt like he was about to burst.

Just as Gu Yuanyu entered his body and absorbed the Azure Netherworld Immortal Qi, all the fourth-rank immortal officials in the Heavenly Palace sensed it and frowned in unison.

It seems that a dragon whale has infiltrated the originally peaceful Tai Su Immortal Realm.
