I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 742 Panlong Chiling Technique, Annotated Stone Bottle!

This young Taoist appeared to be only eleven or twelve years old, yet he already possessed the cultivation level of a Biyou Immortal. His body was enveloped in flowing azure light, and his eyes shone with divine brilliance.

However... his aura was weak and unstable, and he seemed unable to control his power, while the halo behind his head continued to spin.

"The Celestial Child of the Heavenly Longevity Palace has come to receive the True Dragon's Essence Blood on the orders of my master."

The young Taoist priest landed in the Dragon Star, hovering outside the Star Chariot and Cloud Palace, but dared not enter rashly. Instead, he respectfully bowed and introduced himself.

"come in……"

In the quiet room, Gu Yuan swallowed the last bit of power of Mo Tinglongjun, and then spoke to the outside of Yun Que.

In an instant, the restriction dissipated, and celestial officials and soldiers led the Daoist boys to Gu Yuan.

"Greetings, Lord Donghua!"

"This young servant has come to receive the Dragon Lord's essence blood on the orders of my master."

The young Taoist first bowed to Gu Yuan, and then directly stated his purpose.

"Since we are disciples of the Heavenly Longevity Palace, we should act accordingly."

Without wasting any words, Gu Yuan immediately flicked his wrist, and the Nine Dragons Blood-Drawing Jar flew into the Daoist boy's hand.

The young Taoist gently pried open the jar, glanced at it, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes revealing joy.

This jar of dragon blood is of great significance to Master Shouli, who is a celestial child enlightened by the Heavenly Longevity Palace. He shares the glory and the loss of Master Shouli. With the dragon blood, Master Shouli can live for another thousand years and may ascend to heaven with the entire Heavenly Palace. He can then live a carefree life. How could he not be happy?

After carefully collecting the dragon's blood, he did not forget the instructions of Master Shouli.

But this quiet room was a different world altogether, vast and boundless. At the feet of Gu Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged, lay a ten-thousand-foot-long, jade-like, pure white dragon skeleton.

Judging from its aura, it was majestic and imposing, clearly the bone of a dragon king.

The young Taoist looked closely and saw that the dragon's spine was long and continuous, without a single gap, and perfectly intact.

"Your Majesty's divine might allowed you to obtain the dragon bone without injury. I am here on my master's orders. If I can see the complete dragon bone, I will give you something as a gift. Please accept it, Your Majesty."

The young Taoist bowed respectfully, then took out a gray ancient book from his sleeve and presented it to Gu Yuan.

This was something he had agreed upon with Master Shouli that day, so Gu Yuan was not surprised. He reached out and took it, then looked at it closely.

In an instant, the annotations appeared.

[The Panlong Chiling Technique: This technique uses dragon bones to forge one's own body, creating a 'dragon vein' within. This dragon vein allows one to absorb the unique immortal energy of the Dragon Court, the Taixu Dragon Energy. This energy is like primordial chaos, seemingly existent yet elusive, encompassing all things, containing the flickering light of stars and the faint glow of the beginning of the universe.]

This pure Qi can cleanse the body of all acquired impurities, hidden injuries, and even inner demons, allowing the dragon body and soul to continuously revert to their perfect innate state. If consumed at a sufficient concentration, limb regeneration and blood regeneration are commonplace.

This energy also contains the power of creation. Depending on the dragon's body that it devours, it can condense different dragon breaths. The stronger the dragon's constitution and bloodline, the more intense the dragon breath. Those with profound knowledge can burn down galaxies and annihilate all things. This is a secret technique of the Dragon Court, which cannot be learned by outside dragons.

This technique, which gathers dragon veins and steals dragon energy, forges a unique path and can be considered a superior immortal technique.

[However, the method of theft is quite risky. If the Dragon Lord of the Dragon Court discovers that it was not a dragon prince who stole the dragon energy, there may be danger. But now that calamity energy is rampant, the Dragon Lord of the Dragon Court cannot easily leave. This method of theft is just right.]

[This is something worth learning]

However, if a dragon deity is born, this practice must be stopped immediately.

In an instant, the Immortal Seal of Annotation explained everything, including the advantages and disadvantages.

At this moment, the young Taoist, still smiling, recalled the instructions of the True Man Shouli and slowly explained the key points of cultivating this method.

Gu Yuan did not interrupt. After the young Taoist finished speaking, he smiled and nodded, "Such a wonderful technique is just right for me. Please thank the master for me."

"You're too kind, Lord. My master has another request, and I hope you will grant it."

The young Taoist priest quickly returned the greeting, and then made another request to Gu Yuan.

"Oh? Fairy, please speak freely."

"If one day the Palace Master obtains another Dragon Lord's bone, could you please exchange it with my master first? My master said that if he were to give me a great treasure, he would certainly not put the Palace Master in a difficult position."

Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow, feeling curious about Shou Li Zhenren's background.

However, having obtained this method, he was indebted to the True Man Shouli, so he naturally found it difficult to refuse the request and agreed immediately.

The boy immediately bowed, but then said somewhat nervously, "Reporting to the Palace Master, the Heavenly Palace now allows exit but not entry. Even a boy like me is not allowed to enter the Heavenly Palace once I leave. Only immortal food can be used to enter the Heavenly Palace via the Ascension Platform. My master said that after I return the essence blood, he wants me to serve under the Palace Master and do my part in the conquest of the Dragon Star. If there are any unwanted dragon scales or bone fragments, you can use them to refine pills."

After speaking, he bowed again.

If it were an ordinary matter, Master Shouli would have only sent a puppet. However, the matter of the dragon blood is of great importance, and he was somewhat uneasy about not sending a close person. But the boy's whereabouts still needed to be arranged.

"It's easy."

"Once the fairy boy returns, go and find my Left Palace Envoy."

Gu Yuan replied with a smile.

"Thank you very much, Lord Palace Master."

The boy was overjoyed, immediately bowed, and then, without disturbing the others, took the dragon blood and respectfully took his leave.

For a moment, only Gu Yuan remained in the quiet room.

Gu Yuan stood cross-legged on the spot without hesitation. He opened the ancient book, carefully studied it, and then took out the dragon bone, preparing to begin practicing this method.

This method is somewhat similar to "Tai Su Yun Ya" (太素云芽), which is for refining "Tai Xu Long Qi" (太虚龙炁). This Qi is the innate immortal Qi set up by the Dragon Court for the cultivation of pure-blooded true dragons.

As long as he can cultivate this method, Gu Yuan can simultaneously absorb the immortal food from both the Heavenly Palace and the Dragon Court, and his physical body and magical power can improve by leaps and bounds. Most importantly, this Taixu Dragon Qi can also condense dragon breath.

Gu Yuan has now devoured many true dragons and can change his dragon body at will. However, he does not know what kind of dragon breath his dragon body can eventually condense.
The Nine Heavens Annihilation of the Dragon Lord Mo Ting that day was incredibly powerful.

……

……

Dark and mysterious, obscure and indescribable, this is a world of "pure water".

However, if a consciousness above the level of immortals were to descend upon this place, they would discover that this is not water, but rather the vast and boundless Qi.

Qi is like water, and its form is like the vast emptiness. This is the "Void Qi Realm" that the Dragon Court painstakingly created. Within this realm, there is only Void Dragon Qi, which is an important resource for pure-blooded true dragons to cultivate rapidly.

Clumps of obscure consciousness occasionally fall into this realm, transforming into dragon forms, absorbing this energy, and enhancing their cultivation.

But today, at the edge of this realm, a murky consciousness emitting faint lightning stealthily entered this realm.

"Fuck!"

This consciousness seemed somewhat frightened, not daring to be too blatant. It only dared to secretly inhale a small wisp of Qi, then immediately stopped, furtively looking around as if worried that someone would discover it.

But after a while, everything around him seemed normal, and his consciousness grew a little bolder.

"Slurp! Slurp!"

After taking two more breaths, his consciousness immediately stopped, and he looked around warily.

Its vigilance was not wrong.

Just as he inhaled the dragon energy of this realm for the second time, a pair of golden vertical pupils suddenly appeared above the originally dark and gloomy realm.

Those vertical pupils held a cold and majestic aura, like the eye of the heavens, residing in the firmament, fixed on that newly emerging consciousness.

The vertical pupils showed surprise at just one glance, and then divine light seemed to pierce through heaven and earth in the golden pupils, seeing through the source of the newly emerged consciousness.

Anger and killing intent immediately surfaced, and the originally desolate and cold Taixu Dragon Realm became icy cold. The Qi seemed to solidify and was difficult to flow.

The newly emerged consciousness seemed to have also sensed the crisis and immediately wanted to leave this world.

But at that moment, the emotion in the vertical pupils dissipated, and it only took one deep look at the newly emerged consciousness before disappearing into the void.

This action gave the newly emerging consciousness a sense of confidence.

"Boom!"

He immediately became unrestrained, desperately inhaling and exhaling dragon energy. In an instant, the entire void trembled, with the force of rising winds and surging clouds, stirring endlessly.

This action also attracted the attention of other consciousnesses who were practicing breathing exercises. As if communicating in the unseen space, the temperature of the entire space seemed to drop.

However, there is little fighting in this realm, and seeing this, the many consciousnesses can only try their best to absorb the dragon energy, seemingly wanting to absorb all of the dragon energy so that the newly emerging consciousness cannot absorb even a little bit.

But in the end, it is all just an illusion. The dragon energy in this world is vast and boundless. How could it dissipate just because many consciousnesses try their best to absorb it?

Seeing no hope, the many consciousnesses could only grit their teeth and accept the existence of this new consciousness.

……

……

"call!"

"It actually worked! That was a close call."

"Fortunately, the presence of calamity energy prevented the Dragon Lord from following the clues and channeling his power here; otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss..."

Within the starry sky and cloud palace, Gu Yuan opened his eyes, sensing everything that had just happened in the Great Void Qi Realm, a trace of lingering fear in his eyes.

If it weren't for the existence of the Immortal Seal, which revealed that the Dragon Lord dared not act rashly, he would never have dared to enter this realm to absorb the Dragon Qi.

That was the main base where the Dragon Court raised true dragons. Although the Dragon Lord did not cultivate here, his consciousness could still descend here. A "new true dragon" that had never appeared before would inevitably attract attention.

True dragons are all destined for a certain number of years.

There's definitely something fishy about an outsider like him.

Once its consciousness descends upon the body through the clues, the destruction of the dragon vein is a minor matter; the soul and physical body will likely suffer severe damage, and there is even a risk of death.

However, with the annotation seal, one can always check whether this method can be cultivated.

This seal is almost omniscient. Once a dragon lord enters the calamity energy, this method cannot be practiced, and annotations will appear.

Otherwise, Gu Yuan wouldn't dare to take the risk.

"Even so, it was still quite dangerous. Once I mastered the Dragon Breath technique, I will have to abandon this method."

This method of cultivation, done under the noses of others, is still too dangerous.

However... the reason why Master Shouli said this method was a predestined connection to immortality was because of the "Heavenly Palace".

If this method were practiced in the Heavenly Palace, even if the Dragon Lord glimpsed the "human consciousness," he would not dare to act rashly.

To follow the clues, you also need to consider what kind of melon it is.

If the Dragon Lord's consciousness dares to enter the Heavenly Palace and harm people, then it probably won't be able to leave.

However, for Gu Yuan now, the risk is extremely high.

But within risks, there are also opportunities.

Gu Yuan already knew what kind of dragon breath he could obtain after consuming the dragon energy.

Reincarnation Dragon Breath!

Perhaps because he seized the dragon's body through the method of reincarnation, this dragon's breath contains the power of reincarnation, capable of annihilating galaxies and reincarnating all things, forcibly transforming the enemy into a being of the six realms of reincarnation, which is extremely terrifying.

It is the highest form of dragon breath, which can be called a great supernatural power.

"However, even if one absorbs and exhales dragon energy day and night, it would probably take a hundred years to cultivate this dragon breath, which seems quite difficult..."

But recalling the difficulty of cultivating Dragon Breath, Gu Yuan sighed inwardly.

This requires a lot of time and effort; I wonder if he still has the time for it.

There's no use in overthinking; we can only take it one step at a time.

With the completion of the [Panlong Chiling Technique], Gu Yuan currently has no other methods to improve his strength.

After a moment's thought, he took out the liquid stone without hesitation.

The Immortal Seal can annotate all things in heaven and earth and gain insight into all spirits.

Gu Yuan possesses a mysterious object whose origin he still does not know.

However, this item was the most precious treasure he had ever cultivated throughout his life. He had long been accustomed to its mystery, but now that he had suddenly obtained the annotated immortal seal, he dared not examine it closely.

He feared that this object would shatter his hopes, and he also worried that there might be some discord between the Immortal Seal and the Stone Liquid.

After all, the annotation of the immortal seal was also his first acquisition.

But now more than half a year has passed, and all the cultivation methods at hand have been practiced. It's time to use the Annotation Immortal Seal to see the origin of the stone liquid.

"let's start……"

Gu Yuan took a deep breath, and used the power of the Immortal Seal to look at the bluish-gray stone bottle.

There was no response; the annotation seal seemed to have failed, and no annotation words appeared in his mind.

"Is it no longer working?"

Gu Yuan muttered to himself.

But at that moment, a burning sensation that seemed to have been delayed for a long time suddenly surged from his eyes.

At the same time, the annotations also came to mind.

[Hot! Hot! Hot! This is burning this immortal seal to death!]

[Get it away! Get it away right now!]

This time, the annotation seemed to carry a sense of panic and urgency, suddenly appearing in Gu Yuan's heart.

Without any hesitation, Gu Yuan immediately put away the stone bottle.

We have no choice but to accept it.

He felt as if magma was erupting from his eyes, and a terrifying heat wave appeared. Even his peak eighth-order physical body could hardly withstand it. If he didn't put away the stone bottle soon, his eyes would explode along with the annotated immortal seal.

As the stone bottle was put away, the terrifying burning sensation slowly disappeared, and Gu Yuan's eyes regained their coolness.

[What a terrifying existence...]

What I just saw was—the Seal of Immortality?

[Did this seal reveal the Seal of Longevity?]

The annotations seemed to be in disarray, and for the first time, many doubts arose. The words that surfaced in Gu Yuan's mind were also broken and disordered.

[It is not the Seal of Immortality; calamity energy does not arise, immortality does not manifest, and this existence does not contain the power of immortality; therefore, it is not the Seal of Immortality.]

[An unknown entity, whose status is comparable to the Longevity Seal!]

[Such an existence truly exists in this world, seemingly born detached from the Great Dao; this seal cannot even perceive it in the slightest!]

After a long period of chaos, the annotation seals seemed to have finally returned to normal, providing the final annotations.

But right after this annotation appeared, another new annotation surfaced in Gu Yuan's mind.

[A superior-grade Celestial Immortal, with a unique and unknown destiny, possessing a divine object comparable to the Immortal Seal of Immortality. Jade mountains reflect his image, jade trees sway in the wind, rosy clouds rise, and his bright gaze is divine. He is the most respected master of my Immortal Seal interpretation.]

Gu Yuan's own annotations also suddenly changed their wording.

"You didn't see through it..."

But Gu Yuan couldn't care less about these details. He just looked at the annotations on the stone bottle by the Immortal Seal and felt inexplicably relieved.

For him, the worst-case scenario was not failing to discern the origin of the stone bottle, but rather discovering that after understanding its origin, it turned out to be nothing more than an ordinary divine object that greatly disappointed him.

While it's somewhat disappointing that we can't see it now, it's also more encouraging.

What exactly is this thing, comparable to the Seal of Immortality, that exists outside of the Great Dao?
