Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

"The impact of the Xuan Tian War was unprecedented. After the war, some holy lands perished, while others rose to prominence. The power structure of the cultivation world was reshuffled, and the continent was riddled with holes after the war. It took a long time for it to recover."

Lord Han sighed softly, his expression filled with melancholy as he recounted these historical events.

Yu Changsheng listened intently, lost in thought.

"The once invincible Xuan Tian Holy Son has finally fallen. However, his strength was too great. Although his body was damaged, his Dao was not destroyed. His name Xuan Tian is still recognized by heaven and earth. As a result, some supreme cultivators, fearing that he would return as he said before his death, first sealed his name in the cultivation world and turned it into a taboo."

"Furthermore, he used an unparalleled method to erase his true name from the world. Therefore, the true name of the Xuan Tian Holy Son was forgotten by the world and was eternally sealed in that period of time, becoming a taboo as well."

"They were afraid, afraid that, as the Holy Son of Xuantian said, as long as his true name is still chanted throughout the world, and the cultivation world is still Xuantian, he will surely return. Thus, over the long years, this part of history has been sealed away by the combined efforts of many holy lands..."

Lord Han spoke softly, looking up at the celestial warning in the sky, suppressing the tremor in his heart, and continued in a low voice:

"However, the heights that the Xuan Tian Holy Son can reach are truly unimaginable to ordinary cultivators. Even the lords of holy lands are far from sufficient. They vainly attempted to seal it away, but after countless years, cracks eventually appeared in this sealed period..."

"And regarding the true name of the Mysterious Heavenly Saint Son..."

City Lord Han paused, his eyes flashing, staring meaningfully at Yu Changsheng:

"His real name is unclear to the world, and many legends have been passed down. Some say that he was called Xuantian because he was the Holy Son of Xuantian, but this is obviously impossible. Xuantian is just a respectful title for him. Some say that his surname is Chen, and some say that his surname is Cao... With so many different opinions, all sorts of names have been given."

"However, one version of the story is said to have come from an elder of a holy land who fled the Xuan Tian Holy Land. Before his death, he violated the taboos of heaven and earth and announced a name to the world."

"The specific name is not permitted by the laws of heaven and earth, therefore the sound is indistinct, and only the character 'immortal' can be vaguely heard... It has been passed down, seemingly as an inscription within its true name..."

Lord Han spoke softly, and as soon as the word "Immortal" was uttered, the heavens and earth roared, the might of the heavens reached its peak, and thunder rolled in. Chains of lightning condensed in the void, roaring like long dragons, surrounded by lightning, exuding even more divine might and radiating an overwhelming destructive power.

This time, it was no longer a bluff, but a tangible reality. Amidst the roar, chains of Dao principles lashed out at Yu Changsheng and City Lord Han with lightning and thunder.

Rumble!

The void exploded, and a violent life-or-death crisis began to permeate the hearts of the two. Yu Changsheng's expression changed, while City Lord Han looked up and stared directly at the bewildering heavenly might, and smiled contemptuously.

"Do you really think this is within the Xuan Tian Realm? In the Enlightenment Realm, how could we tolerate external laws breaking through the void and descending?"

"Moreover, with the passage of time, the so-called taboo has long lost its former power..."

City Lord Han muttered softly, his expression calm and composed. The chains snapped down, tearing through the void with tremendous force, shaking heaven and earth. Yu Changsheng's face turned deathly pale, his mind reeling. In the next moment, this divine might seemed to have arrived against the will of the Enlightenment Realm, like a thug forcibly breaking down a door, only to be discovered by the sect's master…

And so, in the darkness, a vast and indescribable will seemed to awaken in the blur, or perhaps it was an instinctive impulse, and a huge Dao pattern appeared in the sky, lying between Yu Changsheng and the chains of heavenly thunder laws, and fiercely swept towards him!

The next instant, a strange wave swept across, causing the heavenly might descending upon this realm to pause. All the chains of Dao principles and lightning trembled, showing signs of collapse. Then, the Dao pattern trembled again, instantly becoming like a giant eraser, using heaven and earth as a canvas to gently wipe away the stains that should not have appeared in the painting...

Instantly, the lightning dissipated, the chains of law shattered, and the world returned to calm. The sense of crisis that had been hovering in Yu Changsheng's heart also vanished at that moment...

"fine……"

Lord Han lowered his eyes and muttered softly, a hint of regret flashing across his exquisite face.

"call……"

Yu Changsheng let out a long breath, and after a long while, a trace of color returned to his pale face. He looked up at City Lord Han, and a sense of surprise and uncertainty was faintly emerging in his heart as his lips twitched.

He sensed that Lord Han had anticipated these words and had done so intentionally.

"How's it going? Have you remembered everything?"

Seeing Yu Changsheng's unusual behavior, Lord Han smiled slightly and spoke softly with a slug-like expression.

Yu Changsheng remained silent. Everything that City Lord Han had said was very clear in his mind. He did not feel that he could not remember it. On the contrary, it was even more profound. So Yu Changsheng nodded slightly.

"More or less."

"Interesting... to be able to remember everything I said perfectly, without slowly fading it under the taboo..." A hint of surprise flashed across Lord Han's eyes, and he pondered to himself.

"Although this guy has a special physique and seems to be favored by heaven and earth to some extent... this reaction is indeed somewhat unusual... unless..."

Lord Han paused, his expression unchanged, but a thought and a guess flashed through his mind, a hint of disbelief mixed with surprise.

"Unless, this guy has a profound causal connection with the forbidden person I mentioned... otherwise, there's no reason for him to remember so clearly..."

Lord Han pondered these guesses in his heart, but they only flashed through his mind and were quickly forgotten. He smiled incredulously, thinking that he had been overthinking things.

"But how is that possible?"

Even so, Lord Han couldn't help but take a closer look at Yu Changsheng, and sighed inwardly.

She told Yu Changsheng these things with her own purpose. It was indeed going with the flow, and she also wanted to see if she could break through the Enlightenment Tower by saying such taboos again, so that some of her judgments could be confirmed.

"Now it seems that the vague, vast will we just witnessed was the remnant spirit of this Enlightenment Tower," City Lord Han said softly, meeting Yu Changsheng's surprised gaze.

"However, even with such a large fluctuation, it only triggered an instinctive reaction and did not awaken. It seems that the remnant spirit of the Enlightenment Tower has indeed weakened to the extreme..."

A glint of malice flashed in Lord Han's eyes as he said calmly, "I'm afraid they can't hold on for much longer..."

This was a good thing for her, and the taboo she mentioned was that she wanted to test the waters to see if she could confirm her guess and also to see if Yu Changsheng was really that good or bad.

"Oh……"

Yu Changsheng asked, puzzled, as he wasn't quite clear on these matters. However, City Lord Han didn't seem inclined to explain, merely glancing at Yu Changsheng before saying:

"Just take what I said earlier with a grain of salt. These things may be too early for you, but getting involved sooner will give you some insight into the world."

Yu Changsheng nodded slightly, letting out a muffled groan through his nose: "Hmm..." In his heart, however, he fell into deep thought, muttering to himself...

"His name contains the character for 'immortal'..."

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then focused his mind on the inner world of the Xuan Turtle, which was resting with its eyes closed. He asked softly, "Senior, are you aware of these things?"

The deep, resonant voice of the Xuan Turtle slowly echoed within Yu Changsheng's inner world, saying calmly, "The secrets of Xuan Tian are still too early for you to understand, which is why I haven't told you. But now that you know, there's no need to take it too seriously."

Yu Changsheng remained silent, his gaze shifting as he pondered many things. He spoke softly again, "But I feel that the Xuan Tian Holy Son... is related to me, isn't that right?"

The black tortoise remained silent, not uttering a word, and stopped answering Yu Changsheng's questions while resting with its eyes closed.

Yu Changsheng smiled and didn't ask any more questions, but he already had the answer in his heart.

"His name contains the word 'immortal'... He possesses extraordinary talent... He is the shadow of a sacred land... Is it him?"

Yu Changsheng murmured to himself, and involuntarily recalled a transcendent figure in his mind. He had only heard of this person's name and had never actually seen him, but this person was inextricably linked to him.

"Cao Jinxian..."

From the moment Yu Changsheng inadvertently witnessed the history of the Spirit Dragon's fall, he began to wonder if his senior brother, a genius of unparalleled talent, truly existed in the barbaric land of Wuzhou.

Back then, at the Purple Mansion Realm, one could instantly kill a fifth-tier king-level peak spirit beast, a spirit dragon, comparable to the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm... Even now, from Yu Changsheng's perspective, such a thing is still unbelievable.

In the path of cultivation, the higher the realm, the greater the difference. The difference between any small realm is earth-shattering, let alone crossing an entire major realm... Throughout history, such geniuses are extremely rare.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Next up is the Myriad Spirits Technique, a Saint-level cultivation technique never before seen in the history of Wuzhou, and the Primordial Heaven-Opening Sword, another Saint-level cultivation technique...

Yu Changsheng has fully inherited the former and half of the latter, but without a doubt, even in the cultivation world, Saint-level cultivation techniques are invaluable treasures. Any one of them, once released, would cause a sensation and be fought over by all cultivators...

How could a small Wuzhou, a Wanxiang Sect, and an ordinary cultivator possess such things? It doesn't make sense no matter how you look at it.

Furthermore, Cao Jinxian's death and disappearance, and her defection from the sect, seemed to Yu Changsheng to be shrouded in mystery from the start...

Yu Changsheng didn't know the real truth behind it, but now, with the Xuan Tian secrets that City Lord Han sensed, Yu Changsheng had some clues and guesses.

However, these are all just guesses; Yu Changsheng doesn't know the specifics either. The same goes for the Xuan Turtle.

"If that's really the case... then... what role do I play in it?"

Yu Changsheng murmured softly. These thoughts swirled in his mind, tangled and incoherent. So, Yu Changsheng impulsively suppressed them and stopped dwelling on them.

After a long while, he exhaled deeply, and the deep voice of the Xuan Turtle suddenly echoed softly in Yu Changsheng's mind:

"There are some things that, even if you knew them now, would have no meaning for you."

"Just remember what I said: don't easily reveal your Primordial Creation Sword and the Myriad Spirits Technique, especially the latter..."

After speaking, the Xuan Turtle fell completely silent. Yu Changsheng nodded thoughtfully, keeping the words in mind.

.........

Once Yu Changsheng's consciousness returned to the outside world, City Lord Han was naturally unaware of what he was thinking; otherwise, there would have been another shock.

Now, after the remnant spirits of the Enlightenment Realm acted instinctively and wiped away all the turmoil, the Enlightenment Realm has once again returned to peace and tranquility.

It seems that everything that just happened was nothing more than a brief dream. And now, the dream is over.

Meng Wu'an and Li Minghan also slowly woke up, their eyes initially showing a hint of confusion. After observing their surroundings, Li Minghan scratched his head and said with a hint of doubt in his voice:

"That's strange, did something just happen? How did she suddenly fall asleep?"

Meng Wu'an frowned, thinking back carefully as well, but to no avail. Finally, he turned his gaze to Yu Changsheng and City Lord Han, looking puzzled.

Upon seeing this, Yu Changsheng raised an eyebrow in a moment of stunned silence, while pondering inwardly:

"As expected, their perception has been affected. However, it seems to be only a temporary blockage. When their level of understanding increases in the future, this information will naturally surface, so it's not necessarily a bad thing."

City Lord Han shook his head and said calmly, "It's nothing. There was a little accident, but it's not important. Let's rest and then continue our journey."

"Oh." Li Minghan nodded gently, not thinking much about it, but looking at Lord Han with a mixture of obedience and amazement.

Meng Wu'an frowned, and after a long pause, suddenly asked, "May I ask, City Lord Han, what did you say just now?"

Lord Han was surprised. He glanced at Meng Wu'an and then nodded.

"Okay, thank you." Meng Wu'an remained silent, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed his head.

Yu Changsheng remained silent, showing no intention of explaining anything to the two. Since they couldn't hear certain information, there was no point in forcing them to.

As for myself, I'd say I'm an exception.

So Yu Changsheng stopped thinking about it and, like City Lord Han, silently sat down to restore the disordered energy in his body, digest the information, and adjust his state.

He meditated for half an hour. After half an hour, Yu Changsheng slowly got up, let out a long breath, looked at the sky, and observed his surroundings.

The sun was shining brightly. The four of them were not far from Hancheng. They were surrounded by a small plain, and in the distance, on the edge of the horizon, was a dense and lush forest. That was their destination.

Most of the spirit beast corpses in the city lord's mansion were also hunted there. (End of Chapter)
