To comprehend all laws and attain immortality

The plot is heating up: Update! Come and check it out!

The Taoist priest in golden robes wore a golden crown, his face was square and solemn, and he stood in mid-air on a cloud of auspicious light, exuding an imposing aura without anger.

"Dugu Xin, a dignified Golden Core cultivator, ambushing a junior here, he really has no shame."

The golden-robed Taoist priest's eyebrows curved slightly, and he let out a mocking laugh.

"What bad luck!" Dugu Xin sighed inwardly.

When he saw the golden-robed Taoist, he knew that his trip was destined to fail.

The Lingxiao Sect established the Xuan Yin Immortal City, and the Wu Kingdom's demonic path naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch. The two had already fought several battles before, and Dugu Xin hadn't gained any advantage.

But even though that's what I thought in my heart, I couldn't lose my momentum.

Dugu Xin snorted coldly, his murderous aura dissipating into black wind: "Mu Zhuoran, your Lingxiao Sect disciples came to Chilian City to kill people. This is Wu Kingdom territory. What's wrong with me taking action? As for you, you rashly appeared here. Do you perhaps want to start a war?"

"War?" Mu Zhuoran chuckled and nodded slightly. "Alright, since you put it that way, let Wei and Wu go to war tomorrow, a fight to the death, shall we?"

"If you ask me, let's not wait until tomorrow. Let's seize the day and settle this right here!"

Dugu Xin paused abruptly.

He only wanted to take down Gu Fan and the others to embarrass Mo Tu Hu; he wouldn't dare to actually start a war.

Dugu Xin remained silent, but Mu Zhuoran did not let him off the hook.

Mu Zhuoran raised the corners of his mouth slightly, put one hand behind his back, and said casually, "If you don't dare, then leave quickly and don't embarrass yourself in front of the juniors."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Xin's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He suddenly transformed into a black wind, and boundless killing intent erupted, transforming into a sharp claw that swung towards the Void Shuttle.

Mu Zhuoran stepped forward to block the Void Shuttle, formed a lotus seal with his hands, held it horizontally in front of him, and blew, causing golden winds to dance and countless golden sands to grind the sharp claws to pieces like blades.

Until the black wind dissipated, Dugu Xin's figure had disappeared.

Mu Zhuoran smiled and turned around to look at Gu Fan and the others.

Gu Fan immediately realized what was happening and respectfully bowed, saying, "Disciple greets Martial Uncle."

"No need for formalities."

Mu Zhuoran helped Gu Fan up with a flick of his sleeve and asked, "Was the trip successful?"

Gu Fan nodded slightly and recounted the events of his trip.

Before he could produce the head of the Zhu family's Foundation Establishment cultivator, Mu Zhuoran laughed and said, "That's good. You truly are Senior Brother Xuanji's beloved disciple."

Gu Fan, unaware of the connection between Mu Zhuoran and his master, bowed again in gratitude, saying, "If it weren't for my uncle's arrival, it would have been difficult for me to escape."

He hadn't even used the command token given to him by Xu Changsheng when Mu Zhuoran appeared here, clearly having been prepared and coming to meet him.

Mu Zhuoran grinned and said nothing more, leading Gu Fan and the others towards Xuan Yin Immortal City.

Within the Mysterious Yin Immortal City.

As soon as Gu Fan landed, Xu Changsheng came to greet him, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Junior brother is back. Did your trip go smoothly?"

Gu Fan nodded and cupped his hands, saying, "The Zhu family traitors have all been killed, so please rest assured, Senior Brother."

Xu Changsheng felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders.

As the resident disciple of Xuan Yin Immortal City, the defection incident is undoubtedly a stain on his reputation. If not handled properly, the Xuan Yin Immortal City will surely be in turmoil.

Afterwards, Gu Fan handed over the corpses of the Zhu family members to Xu Changsheng.

Wu Chengdao was still recovering from serious injuries, so he said goodbye and went to rest.

After exchanging pleasantries with Xu Changsheng for a while, Gu Fan took Li Fengyi back to the Lingxiao Sect.

The mission was issued by the Lingxiao Sect, and it will only be truly completed when Qi Zongyuan is repaid.

As the Void Shuttle took off again, Gu Fan looked down and saw that Lingxiao Sect disciples had hung the head of the Zhu family's Foundation Establishment cultivator in front of Xuan Yin Immortal City.

Several days later, at Ziyun Palace.

As soon as Gu Fan returned to the Lingxiao Sect, he went to meet Qi Zongyuan.

After hearing about the journey, Qi Zongyuan offered a few words of encouragement, saying that the sect's reward would be bestowed soon.

Unexpectedly, Qi Zongyuan did not retrieve the white jade bead containing a wisp of Guiyun Sword Lord's sword energy.

"Since I've given it to you, keep it."

Upon hearing this, Gu Fan knew that this white jade bead was the most precious gain of the trip.

In just three days, Gu Fan received his reward for the trip, which amounted to 20,000 merits.

After a moment's thought, Gu Fan simply drew up a list of exchanges.

Inside a quiet room in the Purple Cloud Palace, a golden beast egg trembled slightly, and beneath it were several precious fire crystals.

Hulu squatted to the side, looking at the beast eggs with anticipation in his eyes.

Chang Yuan didn't want to play with it and was hoping that the beast egg would hatch a playmate for him.

Gu Fan held the jade bottle in his hand, and as soon as he opened the bottle, a rich vitality spread out.

The jade bottle tilted, and a wisp of emerald green spiritual liquid poured onto the beast egg, which absorbed every drop, and then began to tremble violently.

This beast egg is the egg of the Xuanjia Earth Dragon bestowed upon me by the True Man Xuanji.

To hatch such beast eggs, the mother beast must transfer her life essence every day. Gu Fan naturally did not know how to channel his own life essence, so he was delayed.

It wasn't until after this mission, when I had enough merit points, that I was able to exchange them for spirit liquid to hatch it.

"Click, click"

With a series of crisp cracking sounds, under the expectant gazes of Gu Fan and Hulu, the beast egg finally cracked open with a spiderweb-like fissure, and then a piece of eggshell fell off, revealing a head.

A moment later.

Gu Fan held a small, bald animal in his hands, while the gourd gently teased it with its short arms.

The newly hatched Xuanjia Earth Dragon was like a puppy. It had no armor as tough as metal, and its eyes were not even open. It could only howl.

Gu Fan frowned slightly and had no choice but to ask Hou Wenzhao to fetch some animal milk so he could feed the animals himself.

Two days later, the Xuanjia Earth Dragon finally opened its eyes, but unfortunately, the first thing it saw was not Gu Fan, but the gourd guarding in front of it.

As for Gu Fan, he was currently staring at Chang Yuan.

There was no other reason than that, ever since he absorbed the blood mist, as soon as he returned to Ziyun Palace, Chang Yuan found a secluded place, curled up in a ball, and fell asleep peacefully. Recently, he even shed a layer of snake skin.

As the snakeskin shed, Chang Yuan stretched its limbs, and Gu Fan suddenly noticed that it had grown three-tenths longer, and its cultivation level had even improved to the late Foundation Establishment stage.

Chang Yuan flicked its tail, hovering in mid-air, and looked at Gu Fan teasingly, "What, never seen a snake shed its skin before?"

Gu Fan frowned slightly, remaining silent.

Chang Yuan's breakthrough suddenly made him feel a sense of urgency.

Just then, a gourd's chirping sound came from outside the quiet room. Gu Fan walked over and met the bright, watery eyes of the Xuanjia Earth Dragon.

......

Time flies, and the days pass like an arrow.

one year later.

Gu Fan sat cross-legged on the futon, listening to the noisy shouts around him.

Helplessly, I got up and walked out of the quiet room, only to see two figures, one big and one small, running wildly in the courtyard.

The gourd dragged a piece of spirit iron with its tail, teasing the Xuanjia Earth Dragon up and down.

A year has passed, and the Xuanjia Earth Dragon has grown to Gu Fan's knee height. Unfortunately, it is not very intelligent. It was jumping around and biting the spirit iron when it slipped and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, it had grown scales that shimmered with black light, so it was unaffected by falling to the ground and simply flipped over to continue chasing the gourd.

Gu Fan felt a slight headache as he watched this scene.

Since gaining a playmate, Hulu has gone completely crazy, running around everywhere all day long.

"Hulu, Xiao Hei, come here!"

At Gu Fan's command, the two spirit beasts stopped and rushed over, wagging their tails rapidly.

"Look at you! You spend all your time playing around, what kind of behavior is that!"

Gu Fan tapped the gourd's head and scolded it.

The gourd stared wide-eyed, looking completely bewildered.

Gu Fan was about to say something more when he heard the door open, and Li Fengyi walked in from behind the door.

Li Fengyi walked with graceful and agile steps, her skirt fluttering in the wind. She came over and ruffled Hulu's head before bowing to Gu Fan.

"Senior brother, I have successfully completed the mission."
