I seek immortality by chance
Chapter 754 Curse to kill Yuxu? Immortal Lord Si Lu!
Chapter 754 Curse to kill Yuxu? Immortal Lord Si Lu!
Tian Si Xing.
This is the fifth of the twelve stars at the forefront of the Dragon Court. It is hundreds of millions of miles away from the other four stars, including the Dragon Merchant Star. It is the second line of defense for the Dragon Court, and the most important of all.
The guardian of this star is none other than the Dragon Lord of the Hanging Sun.
This time, Gu Yuan devoured three dragons in one day and achieved the Jade Void Realm. The three dragon lords who went to ambush him were not from the Dragon Court, but from three dragon stars in this second barrier.
Although Lingyuan Dragon Lord was of extraordinary status as the youngest son of Chizhu Dragon Lord, Chizhu Dragon Lord did not personally take action. Instead, three Dragon Lords who were already outside the Dragon Court went to ambush and kill him.
Now that the ambush is over, all the dragons naturally return to this star.
Siyun Water Palace.
This is a crystal palace hidden beneath an endless ocean, incomparably luxurious. Countless aquatic creatures and dragon soldiers swim outside the palace, all possessing extraordinary auras and the demeanor of immortals.
Inside the water palace, there is a huge mirror of light, in which a crimson dragon projection appears. The dragon projection is so lifelike that it seems to pass through the mirror and enter reality.
It was none other than Chizhulongzun, the father of Lingyuanlongjun and the second-generation dragon prince of the Dragon Court.
Beneath the mirror of light, four more true dragons, each with scales of different colors, coiled around, all exuding extraordinary auras and being ninth-tier dragon lords.
These were the dragons, including the Dragon Lord of the Hanging Sun.
They traversed the universe in an instant and returned to the palace unharmed.
However, the Guangji Dragon Lord's scales were pale, his whiskers were drooping, and his eyes were cloudy, as if his time was coming to an end.
The five signs of decay caused by Gu Yuan's tribulation lightning are still within Guangji Dragon Lord's body and have not been removed.
At this moment, Guangji Longzun is barely surviving thanks to the divine decree of the Heavenly Emperor, which grants him abundant blessings. If the decree expires, he will die on the spot, his body and soul extinguished.
"I beg my elder brother to bestow a treasure to cure Guangji of the five signs of decay..."
The Suspended Sun Dragon Lord lowered his head slightly and made a request to the Chizhu Dragon Lord in the light mirror.
Both are dragon deities, but their status differs.
Chizhulongzun was the second-generation dragon prince of the Dragon Court and the head of the Huangmai lineage. Although Xuanrilongzun was also at the ninth level of cultivation, there was still a considerable gap between him and Chizhulongzun. Therefore, Xuanrilongzun bowed and addressed Chizhulongzun as his elder brother.
"This is my elder brother's plan, so let him resolve this difficulty."
But Chizhulongzun ignored him and coldly spoke to the side.
As the light mirror swirled, a pale blue ancient dragon appeared. The dragon's body was so vast that the light mirror could hardly capture its full form. On each of its scales flowed boundless radiance, as if condensing Daoist energy, possessing incredible innate power.
The second-generation dragon prince of the Dragon Court, the master of the Sundial Vein, and the Supreme Dragon Lord.
He was the first dragon prince born in the second generation of the Dragon Court, the direct grandson of the Supreme Being, with the purest bloodline, the oldest age, the deepest cultivation, and naturally the highest status.
In the Dragon Court, the eight Great Luo Dragon Ancestors now roam beyond the heavens, detached from worldly affairs. Among them, he holds the most transcendent position, ruling over everything.
Calling him the acting ruler of the Dragon Court wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Even the mighty Chizhulong had to address him as "elder brother" and dared not act presumptuously.
However, his tone just now revealed his anger and dissatisfaction.
His youngest son died outside of Dragon Star, but Taiyi Dragon Lord forbade him to use extremely cruel methods to take revenge.
It's one thing if revenge can't be taken, but outside the Dragon Court, there's a lot of calamity, and once you leave the court, you can never return; it's a truly ominous place.
However, Taiyi Dragon Lord had made arrangements in an instant and had bestowed the [Dragon Abyss Karma Pearl] long ago, which made him suspect that Taiyi Dragon Lord had foreseen a great calamity on Dragon Horn Star and had chosen Ling Yuan to undergo the calamity.
After all... it was Taiyi Dragon Lord who specifically requested Lingyuan to leave the court that day.
Otherwise, he would never have sent Ling Yuan if he had more than one Dragon Lord in his palace.
“The aura of calamity is rampant. Although I foresaw that there would be a great calamity there, I did not intend for Lingyuan to go and die. Otherwise, I would not have bestowed upon him the Great Dream Weaving Life Immortal Seal. My original intention was to let Lingyuan resolve this calamity, devour that person, obtain his life, and reshape his dragon body.”
"I just didn't expect that in the end it would all fall short."
"That Dragon Horn Star is the center of the calamity energy, and all methods of deduction and observation are greatly reduced. Even I did not expect the existence of this immortal array. When the calamity lightning falls, no one can defeat an eighth-level Dragon Lord."
"However, although the tribulation lightning struck and all the dreams of living beings were annihilated, I have left a contingency plan, and there is still a glimmer of hope."
Taiyi Dragon Lord smiled slightly, showing no anger. Then, a brilliant light screen rose up in the Dragon Court, ripples spreading out to reveal a vast ocean. In the ocean, there was a small golden dragon with a majestic head.
The golden dragon's eyes were closed, as if it were asleep, and one could faintly hear its snoring.
"This is……"
The Dragon Lord Chizhu's eyes immediately flashed with divine light, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"This dragon slumbers in the Heavenly Dream Sea of Weinan Star. This sea possesses the great power of heavenly decree and has never encountered calamity, thus preserving a trace of Lingyuan's spirit. Once the dragon-devouring person is killed, his destiny is destroyed, and his immortal lightning is shattered, this dragon can be awakened, and Lingyuan can return."
"But we must not disturb him now, otherwise he will sense it and summon thunder in his dream. If the calamity is unleashed, even I will not be able to protect this last ray of spiritual light."
Taiyi Dragon Lord chuckled, and the dazzling light screen shattered, ceasing to manifest.
But Chizhulongzun had found a glimmer of hope, and immediately composed himself and said no more.
Taiyi Dragon Lord then turned his head and looked at Siyun Water Palace.
"clang!"
Without him making any move, ripples spread throughout the Siyun Water Palace, and a three-foot-long golden cauldron broke through the air and landed in the palace.
Along with this golden cauldron came a three-foot-long dragon, shaped like jade and with a green body.
However, although this dragon is small in size, its eyes, when they open and close, possess a vast divine power that can see through the entire world.
The four dragons in the hall also looked surprised and shouted at the same time.
"Brother Qiming!"
Lai Long is also the second-generation dragon prince of the Dragon Court, the dragon of the Sleeping Vein, the Dark Dragon Lord!
Although the Dragon Lord of the Dark Underworld is not the master of the Sleeping Vein, he possesses great supernatural powers and is most skilled in destiny and incantations. His strength is unfathomable, and he holds an extraordinary position in the Dragon Court. When the Dragon Court attacked the Heavenly Palace, the Dark Underworld also shone brightly and achieved a remarkable feat.
The four dragons never expected that the Dark Dragon Lord would enter the Heavenly Steed Star at this time.
Once the Dragon Court has appeared, there is no turning back. Is it to help us take back Dragon Horn Star?
For a moment, the four dragons were racing with thoughts, but the Dark Dragon Lord simply smiled faintly, perched atop the golden cauldron, and said to the Guangji Dragon Lord:
"This is merely the five signs of decay of heaven and man brought about by the tribulation lightning, not a method of destiny. As long as one stays in this [Heaven-Concealing and Thought-Severing Golden Cauldron] for forty-nine days, all methods of decay can be removed, and if one encounters such tribulation lightning again in the future, one's resistance will be greatly increased."
The voice of the Dark Dragon Lord was as clear and melodious as a bluebird's.
"Thank you very much, Brother Minglong!"
"You've fallen into this predicament because of my schemes, so what's there to thank me for?"
The Dragon Lord of the Netherworld smiled slightly, and then the Dragon Lord of the Vast Aid said nothing more. He immediately moved his dragon body, shrank his size, and coiled up in the golden cauldron.
As expected, as soon as Guangji Longzun entered the Golden Cauldron, the five signs of decay of heaven and man on his body disappeared, but they were not completely removed. Once he left the cauldron, they would recur, and he had to stay for forty-nine days.
But he was now temporarily unaffected by the five signs of decay, and he sat in the golden cauldron, his dragon body outstretched, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Perhaps because the five signs of decay were too exhausting, Guangji Longzun, perched in the golden cauldron, felt his eyelids getting tired and was about to fall asleep.
"Don't oversleep, there are still important things to do."
With a flick of its claws, the Dragon Lord of the Netherworld sent a wisp of azure light to the body of the Dragon Lord of Guangji. The Dragon Lord of Guangji immediately regained consciousness, and his eyes regained their brilliance.
"Whoosh!" The Dragon Lord of the Netherworld gently flicked his dragon claw in the void, and in an instant, the void cracked open. Jade banners, glazed jade swords, straw figures made of yarrow, the essence of the five elements, dragon scales and spines... all kinds of objects fell down and were arranged in a specific order, instantly setting up a uniquely shaped bone-colored altar on the left and right sides of the golden cauldron.
Although the Dragon Lord of the Netherworld did not stand on the altar to perform the spell, a mysterious power was already flowing quietly, seemingly with a sense of destiny and cause and effect, which made people feel awe.
However, after setting up the altar, the Dark Dragon Lord did not make any move. Instead, he looked up at the Taiyi Dragon Lord in the mirror of light, as if to confirm.
Taiyi Dragon Lord sighed slightly: "Go ahead and do it. At this point, there's no time to worry about destiny or luck."
"With your words of reassurance, Brother, I am at ease."
Upon hearing this, the Dragon Lord of the Netherworld smiled slightly, a hint of excitement in his eyes.
He has studied fate and incantations for tens of thousands of years, and can kill people across the universe invisibly, but he has never had many opportunities to shine.
The reason is the backlash from the curse.
The method of cursing to kill is an unforgivable technique of heaven and earth. It is extremely insidious and impossible to defend against. No matter how powerful your cultivation is or how many immortal seals you possess, if you cannot break the curse, you will die instantly millions of miles away, and you will not even know who killed you.
How could such a method be without its drawbacks?
Cursing Biyou will greatly shorten one's lifespan; cursing Yuxu will cause one's fate to backfire; cursing Daluo will immediately unleash heavenly lightning.
Any being above the level of immortals has unimaginable drawbacks in every curse-killing technique, and the backlash against the caster is extremely severe. Even a ninth-level dragon lord would find it difficult to resist.
In other words, given his level of cultivation, he could at most curse and kill one Jade Void cultivator in his lifetime, after which he would suffer a backlash and die. Even if he didn't die, his cultivation level would regress, he would be plagued by misfortune, and he would not have a good end.
Therefore, the more he practiced spiritual cultivation, the more boring it became.
Such spells should not be used at will; otherwise, it would be a waste of resources.
However, it is not without a solution.
The backlash from the curse is the backlash from fate and destiny, like destiny itself, which even the Dragon Lord finds difficult to resist.
However, if one's fate is resilient and one's luck is incredibly abundant, one can withstand multiple backlashes from curses and survive.
However, such a thing does not exist in the world.
Even the master of the Great Fortune Seal could not withstand such a backlash.
Only two beings in the world can withstand such a backlash.
Heavenly Palace, Dragon Court!
These two colossal figures, imbued with countless energies and destinies, govern the heavens and the earth, and are beings more majestic than stars and the sun in the world.
Only such an "existence" can withstand the backlash.
But it wasn't without its costs.
Once the curse backfires, the Heavenly Palace and the Dragon Court will also experience a decline in fortune and destiny, resulting in infant dragons within their territory having low aptitude and weak fates, with each generation becoming worse than the last, eventually dissipating into the world.
Humanity is like the rising sun, and the Heavenly Palace has been making continuous progress for tens of thousands of years. In addition to the supreme being's plan that spans across time, the method of destiny and fate is also indispensable.
When he accompanied the Dragon Ancestor to attack the Heavenly Palace, he saw a glimpse of this "fortune".
Now, among the six generations of immortals in the human race, there is already the Jade Void Immortal. Apart from that person's profound opportunities, he must also have received the help of the Heavenly Palace's "luck".
That's why he had a chance to use his skills.
The Dragon Court is on the verge of decline. If it cannot win this great battle, there will be no future for it.
Seeing that the four dragon stars had fallen, Taiyi Dragon Lord finally made a decision, ordering him to borrow the fortune of the Dragon Court to cast a spell to kill the immortals of the Heavenly Palace.
The Dragon Abyss Cause and Effect Pearl should be used in accordance with the prevailing circumstances.
He not only wanted to kill the sixth-generation immortal who devoured dragons, but also the Immortal Lord Silu who could "sever cause and effect"!
The Immortal Lord Silu is an important part of the Heavenly Palace's "fortune". Killing him would make his spells almost unstoppable and could also trigger calamity, causing chaos within the Heavenly Palace.
"Open the altar, recite the incantation!"
"First, we must deceive everyone and lure out that Immortal Lord Silu!"
The Dark Dragon Lord shook its dragon body, and in an instant, its scales fell off, transforming into hundreds of dragon-men shimmering with emerald light.
These dragon people raised their banners and began chanting incantations on the altar. The incantations sounded ancient and mysterious, as if they came from a wild and desolate place, with a melodious quality.
Within this vast water palace, a phantom cloud immediately rose, obscuring everything.
The dragons, including Xuanri Longzun, exchanged glances but said nothing more, simply watching quietly.
They would naturally be willing to curse and kill the immortals of the Heavenly Palace without having to exert any effort themselves.
As for the future backlash of fortune, as long as we win this time, the Dragon Court will reign supreme over all the heavens, and the so-called backlash of fortune will be irrelevant.
……
……
The Heavenly Palace, the Ninth Heaven, the Taijing Heaven.
This is the only celestial realm within the Heavenly Palace that is not controlled by the Nine Veins.
But that doesn't mean there aren't powerful immortals in this celestial realm.
In the ancient times of Xuanhuang, humans and immortals lived together, and countless extraordinary talents were born. Many of them perished in the supreme war, but many others survived to this day and ascended to heaven with the Heavenly Palace.
The Heavenly Mandate Sect is one of them.
This sect cultivates the causes and effects of creation, and its grandeur is terrifying. It was a renowned sect in ancient times.
However, the family was small, with only one son per generation, which is unknown to most people.
But within the Heavenly Palace, no one dared to underestimate them.
After all, a sect with two Immortal Lords must be respected, even by the Eight Great Lineages of the Heavenly Palace.
This sect has a celestial palace in Taijing Heaven, named "Hall of Destiny".
There was a pair of young Taoist boys guarding the entrance to the temple. Except for those who had attained the highest rank, anyone who came to visit had to present a jade tablet and state their name.
Today, a stream of light shot out from the sky and arrived in front of this hall, where it was held in the hand of a child.
The young Taoist glanced around and saw the words "Miaoyuan" in the flowing light. He immediately dared not delay and hurriedly entered the hall to pay his respects to the Taoist who was sitting cross-legged on the futon.
"Master, a message has arrived from beyond the heavens from Immortal Lord Miaoyuan."
The Taoist then opened his eyes.
He was tall and slender, with a cool and aloof demeanor and a unique bone structure, as if he were not made of flesh and blood, but rather a jade stone, flawless and radiating inner brilliance.
"Don't think about it."
The Taoist waved his sleeve, and an invisible barrier immediately rose between him and the Taoist boy. Then he flicked his hand, and the shadow of a black and white chessboard appeared in the void. The shadow of the chessboard seemed to have the light of the Heavenly Dao flowing within it, carrying the aura of destiny.
He had to calculate and consult divination before deciding whether to see or welcome anyone who entered the palace or any matter that came to the palace.
