To comprehend all laws and attain immortality

Xie Linyuan's words made Gu Fan pause, his lips twitching slightly as he thought to himself, "You shouldn't say things like that!"

"I have one more request."

Xie Linyuan seemed oblivious to the unusual expression on Gu Fan's face. He raised his hand, bowed, and said in a deep voice, "I wonder if you would be so kind as to set up another formation?"

"What does Master Xie mean by this?" Gu Fan asked, puzzled.

With Du Chen dead, the array surrounding the Reincarnation Palace had already been destroyed, so there was no point in resetting or repairing it now.

Xie Linyuan pointed to the Samsara Palace and said solemnly, "I request that you set up a self-destructible array here. I will shatter my core and form an infant spirit within the array, and the array must be linked to my life."

"If the Dao Ancestor takes pity on me and allows me to successfully form a Nascent Soul, I can intimidate the Nascent Soul cultivators of both nations and destroy the Reincarnation Lotus in front of many witnesses. But if I unfortunately perish, let the formation detonate on its own, annihilating everything within it."

"This..." Gu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing this, and nodded after a moment of thought.

Setting up such an array does not require much effort and can be completed in half a day. By then, the news of the Reincarnation Lotus will not have time to spread, so it will not affect him.

However, Yunhe and several other Golden Core elders frowned slightly.

Xie Linyuan's actions were not only to guard against the Nascent Soul cultivators of both countries, but also to guard against the elders within the sect.

However, everyone knew that the matter of the Lotus of Reincarnation was of great importance, so they ultimately did not speak up to stop it.

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I will never let you exert your efforts for nothing."

Xie Linyuan looked earnestly at Gu Fan: "The spiritual materials that we agreed upon with your sect will be presented to you in full once this matter is over, as long as the Rebirth Sect still exists."

"As for the reward for this formation..."

He took out a jade slip from his sleeve and looked at Gu Fan and Su Nanzhi: "We were able to kill the old thief Du Chen this time thanks to the efforts of you two. This secret technique is my way of thanking you."

Gu Fan raised an eyebrow but did not reach out to take it: "I am a cultivator of the Creation Lineage, and I am afraid I cannot cultivate the Reincarnation Secret Technique."

Su Nanzhi nodded slightly in agreement.

"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand." Xie Linyuan shook his head gently and said softly, "This technique is called the God-Slaying Technique, and its cultivation is not restricted by any lineage."

"The God-Slaying Technique?" A hint of curiosity flashed in Gu Fan's eyes. "It sounds like a technique for attacking the soul. Why didn't Sect Leader Xie use it during the battle just now?"

Xie Linyuan sighed, a bitter smile appearing on his lips: "It's not that I don't want to use it, but that it's difficult for me to do so."

"As the name suggests, the God-Slaying Technique is a technique that uses divine sense to sever the soul. The old thief Du Chen branded the Soul-Silent Seal into my divine sense, which would cause my soul to scatter with just a movement of my divine sense. I used this method to sever my own soul in order to remove the Soul-Silent Seal."

"Although this move freed him from the old thief's control, it also damaged his divine consciousness, making it difficult for him to use the God-Slaying Technique."

Gu Fan was also surprised when he heard this.

The divine sense is the foundation of a cultivator. Once damaged, it can cause severe headaches and unconsciousness, or even lead to demonic possession and death.

Xie Linyuan severed his divine consciousness, not only breaking free from the control of the Nascent Soul True Monarch, but also standing here with a clear mind, demonstrating the exquisite nature of the Divine Severing Technique.

Seeing his earnest words, Gu Fan no longer stood on ceremony, reached out and took the jade slip, then pressed it to his forehead to examine it.

Thousands of Dao characters instantly spread out in his sea of ​​consciousness.

After a cursory glance, Gu Fan realized that the God-Slaying Technique was indeed a superior secret technique for attacking the soul.

According to the jade slip, the God-Slaying Technique is a method of tempering the divine consciousness. It involves condensing the divine consciousness into countless grains of sand to slowly polish the soul. Although the process is extremely painful, the divine consciousness can be strengthened after it is healed.

Later, cultivators went a step further, condensing their divine sense into invisible blades that could be released to injure enemies.

As cultivation deepens, the number of condensed divine sense blades can increase, allowing dozens or even hundreds of soul blades to be released in an instant, their forms also freely changing.

Judging from the efficiency of tempering divine consciousness, the God-Slaying Technique is far inferior to the Star Evolution Divine Observation Method, and in terms of power, it is not as good as the clear light emitted by the Glazed Pure Heart Bamboo.

But this does not mean that the God-Slaying Technique is worthless.

The preciousness of the God-Slaying Technique lies in the fact that the condensed blade is extremely subtle, allowing for precise control of its power.

Even the Crystal Pure Heart Bamboo cannot achieve the goal of severing one's own consciousness from the mark of divine consciousness.

"Master Xie, you have truly been born with extraordinary talent to create such a method."

Gu Fan slowly put down the jade slip, praising it sincerely in disbelief.

With his current cultivation level, he can create ordinary Five Elements spells and talismans on his own, but even with the help of the Myriad Manifestations Eye, it would take an unpredictable amount of time to create such an exquisite secret technique.

If this method was truly created by Xie Linyuan alone, his comprehension is astonishing.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me." Xie Linyuan suddenly sighed and continued, "The God-Slaying Technique was not created by me alone, but was drafted by the previous leader of the Rebirth Sect. It was secretly deduced by successive leaders until I completed it in recent years, all for the purpose of breaking free from the control of the old thief Du Chen."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Yunhe and the other Golden Core elders, and said in a deep voice, "If I fail to form my Nascent Soul, the Rebirth Sect will likely be unable to survive. I hope that all of you elders will make a copy of this technique and find a way to continue the sect's lineage."

After speaking, Xie Linyuan bowed to the elders.

"In accordance with the decree of the leader."

The Golden Core cultivators immediately bowed and responded in unison.

On the other side, Gu Fan quietly examined the God-Slaying Technique with his Myriad Manifestations Eye, confirming that there was no trap. He then took out a blank jade slip, made a copy of it, and handed it to Su Nanzhi.

After everyone had copied their jade slips, Gu Fan looked at Xie Linyuan and said, "If Sect Leader Xie is ready, I will now prepare to set up the formation."

Xie Linyuan said solemnly, "Thank you for your trouble, fellow Daoist."

Gu Fan nodded slightly, hovered in the air and surveyed the area around the Samsara Palace, then took out a set of array flags and various spiritual materials.

......

Half a day later.

Gu Fan planted the last array flag and handed Xie Linyuan a jade bead about an inch in size.

"If Master Xie is prepared, he only needs to infuse the jade bead with magic power to control the opening or closing of the formation. He only needs to keep the jade bead close to his body. Once he can no longer detect your life force, the jade bead will shatter on its own, thus detonating the formation."

The formation he set up this time is called the Return to the Void Annihilation Formation.

In terms of grade, the Guixu Annihilation Array is only a mid-level third-tier array, inferior to the Zhenxuan Sealing Array, but it perfectly suits Xie Linyuan's needs.

The characteristic of this formation is that once it is violently breached, it will trigger spatial annihilation and self-destruct. It is usually used to protect treasures that one would not want to be obtained even if destroyed, or to perish together with the invading enemy.

As for the jade bead, it was a magical artifact specially crafted by Gu Fan for this purpose, as only in this way could Xie Linyuan's life be linked to the activation of the magic array.

When Gu Fan revealed his weapon-refining skills, everyone was taken aback.

Only Su Nanzhi was unsurprised.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist." Xie Linyuan accepted the jade bead, stepped into the Samsara Palace, and sat down cross-legged away from the Samsara Lotus.

The next instant, a pale blue light curtain suddenly rose up, enveloping the Samsara Palace.

Seeing this, Gu Fan exchanged a glance with Su Nanzhi, then bid farewell to everyone and flew towards Duyou City.

"In accordance with the decree of the leader."

The Golden Core cultivators immediately bowed and responded in unison.

On the other side, Gu Fan quietly examined the God-Slaying Technique with his Myriad Manifestations Eye, confirming that there was no trap. He then took out a blank jade slip, made a copy of it, and handed it to Su Nanzhi.
