Longevity in Two Worlds: Double Pupils Are the Road to Invincibility

Chapter 248: How can the vast heaven treat me so poorly?

Taiyi Dao Gate.

Moon-Watching Mountain.

The clash between the two peak-level experts at the Silent Realm caused a great commotion, drawing people from almost every mountain peak to watch the battle in mid-air.

These two masters of Daoist arts have already attracted everyone's attention.

Even within sects, clashes between Daoist masters of this caliber are rare.

Even if there are conflicts or clashes among the elders and high-ranking figures in a sect, it rarely goes to this extent. Most of them will restrain themselves, and even if they clash in certain situations, it won't go this far.

In this situation, almost everyone in the sect is now paying close attention to what's happening here!

Even those who are in seclusion for spiritual cultivation, unless they are in a complete retreat, will generally check on the situation.

In mid-air, the two great Dharma forms, the Laurel Toad Dharma Form and the Great Sun Dharma Form, clashed.

The former is not a lineage of the sect's main cultivation methods, and even contradicts the sect's main cultivation methods. Few disciples in the Taiyi Sect would choose to cultivate this type of method because the cultivation environment is not suitable.

Only the Dharma forms such as the Great Sun and the Golden Crow are the main cultivation methods within the sect, because the cultivation environment of the entire Taiyi Sect is more suitable for the cultivation methods of the Great Sun and the Golden Crow.

This is something that all the disciples within the Taiyi Sect are very clear about.

The clash between two different cultivation methods has attracted a lot of attention.

Shi Yi was also watching intently, his eyes sparkling with interest.

His attempts on Earth went very smoothly, and his plans were proceeding step by step.

Meanwhile, on the Taiyi Sect's side, the progress of his Xuanzhen Concealing Breath Technique was about as expected. He had already cultivated it to the perfect level, so there was no need to worry about anyone discovering that he was practicing Buddhist techniques.

The reason he continued to 'seclude himself' was that the tribulation magic weapon in his hands still needed a period of nurturing, so he had no intention of leaving seclusion.

In Shi Yi's mind, nurturing the spirituality within the tribulation-inducing magic weapon was of utmost importance.

If it weren't for the commotion within the sect, he would likely still be in seclusion cultivating.

Furthermore, he currently has quite a few cultivation techniques and Taoist arts that he needs to practice.

In the realm of martial arts, he is also striving to take the step of unifying the major and minor cycles of the body, pushing his martial arts cultivation to its limit and condensing the Ice Skin and Jade Bone martial arts treasure body.

"boom!"

Above Mount Wangyue, the image of the Moon Laurel Toad and the image of the Great Sun have already clashed head-on.

The deafening roar was the aftershock of their clash, seemingly shaking the very space around them, and the sound seemed to resonate in everyone's ears.

The noise was quite loud, but when it landed on Wangyue Mountain, it didn't cause any disturbance and had no effect whatsoever.

The aftershocks of the battle landed in front of Shi Yi and the others, but they barely felt it, like distant thunder, all sound and no effect on those watching the thunder.

Unlike others, Shi Yi clearly saw the formation on Wangyue Mountain activated, including the formation on Wangyue Peak where he was located.

The aftershocks of their fierce battle were absorbed by the formation before they even reached Wangyue Mountain.

This explains why, despite the huge commotion, all the spectators remained unharmed.

The aftershocks of the battle did not spread at all.

When the two great Dharma bodies clashed, there was also a clash between their Taoist arts and magical treasures. The two fought fiercely and violently, their hearts filled with murderous intent, and they were fighting for their lives.

However, the commotion of this confrontation was suppressed within a certain space, and no one else was affected at all.

Shi Yi was also watching the game intently.

Such a life-or-death battle between masters of Daoist arts at this level is extremely rare.

The others within the sect seemed to have no intention of getting involved.

The elders who had appeared earlier were nowhere to be seen, clearly not worried that the outcome of the contest would be unexpected.

The outcome seemed to have been decided at the very beginning of the confrontation!

"Oh, heavens, how cruel you are to me!"

"I'm not reconciled!"

Not long after, the laurel toad Dharma form that Jia Zehan was riding completely shattered, and his magic weapon was also completely destroyed.

Jia Zehan was covered in blood and stained with the Great Sun Divine Fire.

He looked up at the sky, his face filled with resentment.

Having cultivated Taoist arts to this level, so close to achieving immortality and carefree existence, yet unable to cross that threshold.

If it weren't for the difficulty of breaking through this barrier, and the fact that life force was urging him on and eroding his remaining vitality, he would never have chosen to cooperate with the Demonic Sect.

They extended their lives by a few years, just to prolong their journey and fight for that sliver of hope.

Immortality and carefree existence are the lifelong pursuit of all those who cultivate the Tao.

For this, we are willing to pay any price.

"Hmph! Heaven has not been unkind to you!"

"The disciples and ordinary people in the sect who died because of your greed are the ones who are truly resentful."

"Great Sun Divine Fire, burn the heavens, judgment!"

Gao Zhuoran, the head of the Enforcement Hall, stared coldly at Jia Zehan.

The Great Sun Divine Fire appeared and fell on Jia Zehan without hesitation.

Jia Zehan was instantly engulfed in flames, completely unable to resist.

Gao Zhuoran watched as his opponent was burned to ashes by the Great Sun Divine Fire, his eyes still cold.

Only after some information is investigated will we know how many people died because of Jia Zehan's greed.

The evil magic of the demonic cult to prolong life is never something that comes out of thin air; its deeds are too numerous to recount.

During this process, some promising disciples within the sect died outside because of Jia Zehan's betrayal, and even more innocent people died because of the evil magic.

At first, the sect did not realize that these disciples had simply been unlucky enough to encounter a powerful enemy and die. Later, they discovered that the disciples had been betrayed!

With someone who was prepared to attack someone who was not, it was naturally extremely difficult to come back alive under such circumstances, and the deaths of these people were due to Jia Zehan's greed.

Once Gao Zhuoran had investigated all of this, he naturally felt no pity for Jia Zehan.

Some people in a sect who don't die when they get old will become thieves.

After Jia Zehan died completely, Gao Zhuoran put away the Great Sun Dharma Image, and his figure disappeared in mid-air.

The previously immense power of the formation dissipated at this moment, as if it had never existed.

The two masters of the Silent Meditation technique fought to the death, but left no obvious traces on Wangyue Mountain. As they disappeared, it was as if nothing had ever happened.

Amidst this commotion, the onlookers lingered for a long time.

"If I remember correctly, Jia Zehan should be an elder of the Enforcement Hall, right?"

"It's the elders of the Enforcement Hall. According to Elder Gao, Elder Jia Zehan seems to have betrayed the sect!"

"The clash between masters of the 'Sitting in Oblivion' style is truly spectacular."

"Elder Gao is the head of the Enforcement Hall and also a Protector Elder. He is stronger in combat. Even Elder Jia Zehan couldn't last long against him."

"Actually, there's also the added effect of the sect war. Otherwise, even if Elder Gao is very strong, he wouldn't have been able to kill Elder Jia Zehan so quickly."

"The Great Sun Dharma Form is truly powerful, worthy of being the most famous main cultivation method in our sect. It's a pity that my compatibility with it is not high!"

"You could try transferring it for repair, it's not like it's not."

"."

Seeing the clash between two Daoist masters at the Silent Meditation level, many people began to discuss it.

This level of combat is rarely seen even within the Taiyi Sect.

Moreover, based on Gao Zhuoran's previous words, these people also knew that something big had happened within the sect, otherwise they wouldn't have caused such a commotion. It seemed that only Gao Zhuoran had taken action to suppress the disturbance, but in reality, there were more than just Gao Zhuoran involved, a fact that many people understood.

After all, Jia Zehan had tried to escape but was trapped by an unseen force. Even if he couldn't see the power of the formation, he could still guess what it was.

"Junior Brother Shi Yi, it's been a long time!"

Lin Wenze greeted Shi Yi when he saw him.

As Gu Qianqiu's disciple, Shi Yi's fellow disciple, and also his neighbor, he thought that after Shi Yi became a disciple, he would come over to connect with his fellow disciples and so on.

After all, they were all disciples of Gu Qianqiu, so their relationship was naturally better than that of others.

Furthermore, Gu Qianqiu had a very high opinion of Shi Yi, so he paid more attention to Shi Yi.

However, I didn't expect to see Shi Yi for so long.

"Greetings to Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Qu, Senior Sister Chi, and Senior Sister Ji."

Hearing the sound, Shi Yi turned his head to look.

Upon seeing these people, they took the initiative to greet them.

The visitors were not just the tenth senior brother Lin Wenze; ​​beside him were the twelfth senior brother Qu Xiujie, the thirteenth senior sister Chi Daihe, and the fifteenth senior sister Ji Peipei.

Their residences were close together, and with such a loud commotion just now, almost everyone came out to check.

Therefore, it's actually quite normal to encounter this at this time.

It would be rather unusual if you didn't encounter it at all.

"Junior Brother Shi Yi, you really are elusive!"

“I haven’t seen Junior Brother Shi Yi leave the house since we last met. It seems like you’ve been in seclusion.”

"I really admire this kind of rigorous self-cultivation."

Ji Peipei smiled at Shi Yi, her words carrying a hint of teasing.

Her residence was closer to Shi Yi's, and she would keep an eye on him when she came and went.

The gate to the courtyard was marked with a sign indicating that it was closed, which was quite conspicuous.

Such ascetic practices are rare even among people like them.

Most of them here never slacken in their spiritual practice, but they also pay attention to balancing work and rest, and rarely go into seclusion for extended periods.

Furthermore, knowing that there are fellow disciples nearby, they will take the time to visit them.

Shi Yi's behavior seemed aloof, yet also like that of a hermit.

Ji Peipei's teasing words at this moment, seemingly to defuse the situation, were actually a test.

“After I became your disciple, I should have taken the initiative to visit you. However, at that time, my cultivation had just broken through, and my master specifically reminded me to be persistent and hardworking. In addition, my cultivation was somewhat unstable, so I was basically in seclusion.”

"This is my fault, please forgive me, fellow senior brothers and sisters."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi took the initiative to apologize.

He didn't have a problem with these people, it's just that the schedule was a bit tight.

During the college entrance examination period on Blue Star, there were many things to do, and he spent a lot of his energy on Blue Star.

Afterwards, he had Tathagata visualize the condensation of the golden elixir, and a Zen aura emerged from his body. Under these circumstances, he naturally needed to suppress the Zen aura on his body and would not come into contact with anyone.

After the tribulation magic weapon was completed, he came out of seclusion for a short time. However, because he had not yet perfected the Xuanzhen Concealing Breath Technique, he did not choose to visit any of the people.

It was only now that we saw powerful Taoist masters fighting to the death, causing such a commotion, that we realized they were still in seclusion cultivating.

Because the tribulation magic weapon in his possession had not yet been fully nurtured, he planned to continue his seclusion for a while longer.

Therefore, Shi Yi gave a simple explanation at this time.

Within a sect, there are some people you don't need to befriend, but it's best to avoid making enemies.

Because these people may not help you, but they can definitely do bad things to you.

"Junior Brother Shi Yi is truly a ascetic."

"No wonder your master thinks so highly of you."

"After entering the peak, I have been diligently cultivating myself, which is the right path!"

When Chi Daihe spoke up at this time, it was also to express goodwill.

Furthermore, Shi Yi's words were spoken by Gu Qianqiu, so she naturally wouldn't refute them.

Shi Yi and she weren't that close, so expressing goodwill was enough!
"Is Junior Brother Shi Yi planning to emerge from seclusion now?"

Qu Xiujie then asked.

Those who are from the same school naturally need to keep in touch.

People who are close to each other will also do some sect missions together.

After all, many missions within the sect require more than one person.

In this situation, it's naturally better to find someone from the same school than to find other strangers.

"Junior brother, I was just in seclusion and was also awakened by this commotion."

"Now that I've met some senior brothers and sisters, I wonder if I could trouble you for a moment?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi took the initiative to inquire.

Now that we've already encountered this situation, it would be impolite to go back to seclusion and cultivate in seclusion!

Fortunately, he has now perfected the Xuanzhen Concealing Breath Technique, so naturally no one will notice the Zen aura emanating from him.

As for nurturing a magic weapon that can withstand tribulation, that can't be rushed.

There is still a long time before the two months mentioned by the weapon-refining master Lü Yan are up.

Besides, he also wanted to chat with these senior brothers and sisters.

He was unclear about the reason for the previous clash between the two masters of the Enforcement Hall who had mastered the art of meditation, and what major events had occurred within the sect in recent days.

While prolonged seclusion can aid in cultivation, it also leads to a significant loss of knowledge about the sect's internal affairs.

Unlike him, Lin Wenze and others entered Guyue Peak to cultivate earlier, so their network of connections is definitely more powerful, and they must know more about the secrets within the sect.

Taking the initiative to befriend someone at this time not only helps build a closer relationship but also allows you to gather more information.

“That would be wonderful. We met on the road just now, so we decided to meet at my courtyard.”

"I just acquired two jars of Qingzhu wine, and I'd like to share them with you!"

Lin Wenze smiled and said this.

When fellow disciples meet, it's a perfect opportunity for them to get together and strengthen their bonds.

"Junior brother, I also obtained a few jugs of fine wine before."

"I'll go back to my courtyard to get it first, then I'll come to my senior brother's courtyard."

Shi Yi heard this and said with a smile.

Although he didn't like drinking, he still kept some alcohol he brought from Earth at his residence.

When interacting with others, one should not arrive empty-handed. It is inappropriate to bring something too precious, but items such as wine are just right.

After all, the other things he had were either too precious to take out and would cause some trouble.

Or they're just mundane or high-tech items, which aren't really suitable to be shown out.

Conversely, items like relatively good food would be more suitable.
