Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 253: Secret Technique Integrated Union

The Qingmu Flying Ship landed smoothly on a spacious riverbank. The river sand here was fine and smooth, and various pebbles were polished and round.

On both sides were purple-red trees with dense and lush leaves, emitting a faint fragrance of grass and wood.

"Master Gao, these purple maple leaves gather in five petals like claws, hence the name Purple Claw Maple. The leaves of the Purple Claw Maple contain wind spiritual energy, but they are poisonous. Only the Wind Apes like to eat them..." Many disciples came down from the flying ship, and Lu Mengmeng approached Gao Xian, introducing the Purple Claw Maple to him without any hesitation.

After attending classes for several months, Gao Xian was already quite familiar with the enthusiastic Lu Mengmeng.

This girl was a descendant of the Lu Jingxu family, with great talent in cultivation. At the age of seventeen, she had already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining.

With this relationship, Gao Xian was a bit more tolerant towards Lu Mengmeng. Besides, the girl had big beautiful eyes, full of vitality, and spoke sweetly, unlike Li Feihuang, who was more reserved.

Lu Mengmeng was a bit like Wan Yingying, except that Wan Yingying had grown up in the market and had a mature side to her personality.

Lu Mengmeng was just a silly girl with not many thoughts. She often spoke before thinking.

On the one hand, it was her innate character, and on the other hand, it was the relaxed environment she grew up in that made her rarely worry about anything.

Li Feihuang stood behind Lu Mengmeng, trying to maintain a calm demeanor. But her gaze couldn't help but scan Gao Xian and Lu Mengmeng frequently.

Seeing her best friend getting close to Gao Xian, she felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart.

But she also hoped that Gao Xian would notice her and even take the initiative to talk to her. In that case, she wouldn't be unable to give Gao Xian some face.

To Li Feihuang's disappointment, Gao Xian never looked at her from beginning to end, let alone greet her.

Lu Jingxu gathered all the disciples together and divided them into ten teams according to the roster, with each team led by a Foundation Building master.

In the next thirty days, all the disciples had to try their best to kill Wind Apes. In the end, their performance would be evaluated based on the Wind Ape Crystal Cores they obtained.

Most of the disciples had relaxed expressions. The sect's order was strict, and in the wilderness, they felt like they had untied an invisible rope, both physically and mentally comfortable.

There were also some mature and cautious disciples whose faces were more serious.

They knew very well that everywhere in the wilderness was dangerous. There was no one to restrain them here, but there was also no one to protect them.

Once they encountered any accidents, they had to rely on themselves. Not to mention the numerous demonic beasts in the Wind Ape Valley, they didn't know what situations they would encounter.

Being careless at this time would be completely irresponsible for their own lives.

Lu Jingxu often took the disciples out for trials, so he quickly formed the teams with his rich experience.

The ones in charge of leading the teams were all experienced masters from the Academy. Gao Xian and another guest master were not assigned specific tasks.

When the five hundred disciples entered the Wind Ape Valley, it was like throwing a stone into the grass, and they disappeared in an instant.

The Wind Ape Valley was very large. Looking down from the sky, it looked like a long and wide rift. Being in it, one's vision would be blocked by mountains and trees, making it difficult to realize that it was a huge rift running from east to west.

After all the disciples had left, Lu Jingxu smiled at Gao Xian and said, "We just need to wait for news on the Qingmu Ship. The Wind Ape Valley doesn't have any powerful demonic beasts. In general, they can handle it."

He then warmly invited, "I have prepared Fire Ginseng Wine for this occasion. The Fire Ginseng is as old as eight hundred years and is very mellow. Junior Brother, if you have nothing to do, accompany me for a few drinks..."

"Alright." Gao Xian wasn't interested in low-level Wind Apes either. With his background, he didn't lack a few small gains, and it would be embarrassing if it got out.

At his position, reputation became important. If he gained a reputation for being greedy and stingy, it would be difficult to turn it around.

After all, anyone can easily label him with a hat, and most people enjoy this without even thinking about distinguishing between truth and falsehood.

So when a celebrity has a scandal, everyone's first reaction is, "How could he do this? He actually did this!"

As for the truth, it only matters to the parties involved.

He has a good reputation within the sect. Even if he doesn't have to be cautious with his words and actions, he should at least pay attention to some details and not tarnish his own reputation.

Lu Jingxu also invited another guest teacher, Lu Da Feng, but he politely declined.

Lu Da Feng comes from the main lineage of the sect and is responsible for teaching wood-based spells. He is very accomplished in this area.

This person has a reserved personality, just like a piece of wood. Many disciples call him Lu Da Shu behind his back.

Lu Jingxu knows his temperament and doesn't force him. To be honest, drinking with Lu Da Feng, with nothing to say when their eyes meet, feels very awkward. It's better that Lu Da Feng didn't come.

Back on the Qingmu Flying Ship, Lu Jingxu had someone set up food and drinks on the top deck and put up a sunshade.

The autumn weather was refreshing, and as he drank in the breeze, all he saw was the splendid autumn scenery. It could be considered a pleasant experience.

The Fire Ginseng Wine was also mellow. With one sip, the fiery spiritual energy burst into his stomach along with the breath, quickly spreading throughout his body, as if his entire bloodstream had been ignited.

Gao Xian was drinking such a hot and stimulating wine for the first time, but fortunately, his powerful physique quickly absorbed the spiritual energy, and he didn't have any special reactions.

After Lu Jingxu finished a glass of wine, a hint of red appeared on his gentle and refined face, and his eyes were slightly bloodshot.

He took a deep breath and said, "Refreshing."

Lu Jingxu saw that Gao Xian was sitting there with a normal expression, seemingly unaffected, which surprised him.

But he quickly realized that Gao Xian's cultivation couldn't be stronger than his own, so he must have relied on his strong body to absorb the alcohol. He smiled and said, "Junior Brother is also proficient in the Body Refining technique, truly impressive."

"It's not worth mentioning."

Gao Xian praised, "This is really good wine. The Fire Ginseng's medicinal power is abundant, and it is skillfully paired with spiritual objects. The wine is strong but not violent, strong and mellow. Senior Brother, you brewed this wine really well."

"Hahaha..."

Lu Jingxu laughed heartily. Gao Xian's words scratched an itch for him, making him very happy.

Besides studying, his greatest hobby was brewing and tasting wine. He believed that brewing wine was comparable to alchemy, but few people understood his wine.

At most, they thought it tasted good, but no one could say that his wine recipe and brewing were good.

"Junior Brother has good taste."

Lu Jingxu was pleased and took out a yellow gourd, handing it to Gao Xian. "This gourd of Fire Ginseng Wine is a gift for Junior Brother to taste."

Gao Xian declined, "A few cups of this spiritual wine are enough."

"Hey, good wine is hard to brew, and kindred spirits are hard to find. I must give it to you, Junior Brother..."

Normally, Lu Jingxu was gentle and humble, but after drinking two cups of wine, he became a bit reckless and indulgent.

Gao Xian could only accept it, even though Fire Ginseng was not an ordinary ginseng but a Rank Three spiritual object. This gourd of wine brewed from an eight-hundred-year-old Fire Ginseng was worth at least several thousand spiritual stones.

Fortunately, as a Gold Core cultivator, Gao Xian was still quite wealthy, so he didn't mind this small expense. For Lu Jingxu, having a wine connoisseur as a kindred spirit was more important.

Gao Xian accompanied Lu Jingxu until dusk, and then Lu Jingxu, feeling a bit drunk, went to rest.

He was somewhat amusing, this person who usually seemed reliable, but became indulgent when he went out.

It was probably because he had been to Wind Ape Valley many times, so for Lu Jingxu, it was just routine and not worth taking too seriously.

According to Lu Jingxu, there would always be accidents during the trials in Wind Ape Valley, and that was just how it was meant to be, there was nothing to say about it.

Gao Xian also agreed with this to some extent. Teaching and learning from the master was about enlightenment, not being a nanny.

When going out for trials, every cultivator had to take responsibility for themselves. They couldn't rely on the master for rescue.

However, Gao Xian still felt that there was something wrong with Wind Ape Valley. Regardless of what others thought, he had to be more careful himself.

Gao Xian returned to his cabin and lay on the bed, opening the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror in his sea of consciousness.

Tai Zhen Ou Shen had invested one million six hundred thousand Human Dao Spiritual Light, and had already upgraded to the Grandmaster realm. The Five Elements Combined Qi Technique had reached its peak, and the Great Five Elements Technique had also benefited, directly advancing to the Expert realm.

This breakthrough allowed his cultivation to reach the third level of Foundation Building, just one step away from igniting the spiritual light in his heart and advancing to the mid-stage of Foundation Building.

With the cultivation at the third level of Foundation Building, his lifespan increased by twenty years, reaching four hundred and eighty years.

The enhancement of his cultivation would directly benefit all spells.

The most enhanced was his divine sense, which had a radius of one thousand eight hundred steps. Of course, this was mainly due to the blessing of the Grandmaster level Tai Zhen Ou Shen.

The tremendous growth of his divine sense greatly benefited the three divine forms of Tai Yuan, Tai Xuan, and Tai Ji.

The foundation of the Great Principle Soul Formation was in divine sense and divine soul. The enhancement of divine sense made the three divine forms more refined, and the avatars they condensed could last longer. This also increased the power of various corresponding secret techniques.

With his cultivation greatly improved, Gao Xian actually wanted to find someone to test his skills.

It was not appropriate to act recklessly within Azure Cloud Sect, but this time, he had a feeling that something unexpected would happen.

Taking advantage of the fact that nothing had happened yet, Gao Xian decided to fully charge the Yin Yang Treasure Wheel.

After several months of accumulation, he had one million four hundred thousand Human Dao Spiritual Light in his hands. Originally, he had kept it for Tai Zhen Ou Shen, but now he couldn't keep it anymore.

He invested five hundred and sixty thousand and directly upgraded the Yin Yang Treasure Wheel to the Grandmaster realm.

With the upgrade of the Yin Yang Treasure Wheel, the Qian Kun Wheel also reached the Grandmaster realm.

What surprised Gao Xian was that the two Grandmaster realm secret techniques actually integrated on their own.

After a long time, both the Yin Yang Treasure Wheel and the Qian Kun Wheel disappeared, and a new secret technique appeared on the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror: Yin Yang Heaven Wheel.

Yin Yang Heaven Wheel: Control the power of Yin and Yang, fly through the sky and travel on the ground, break through all laws, and protect the body and soul. (299/1000000, entry level)

At the same time, Gao Xian naturally understood the essence of the Yin Yang Heaven Wheel.

In fact, it was the integration of the Yin Yang Treasure Wheel and the Qian Kun Wheel, no longer limited to the power of heaven magnetism and earth magnetism, but able to control any changes in Yin and Yang spiritual energy.

Although the Yin Yang Heaven Wheel was only at the entry level, according to Gao Xian's estimation, this spell had reached at least the Rank Three superior level.

Gao Xian tested it in the Heart and Mind Temple, and the ultimate speed of the Yin Yang Heaven Wheel was five hundred zhang per breath.

As far as he knew, this speed had already far exceeded that of an ordinary Gold Core cultivator.

It should be noted that when he used the Fiery Sun Bullet, it was only six hundred zhang per breath.

With the Thunderbolt Lightning Technique blessing the Yin Yang Heaven Wheel, he could easily surpass the speed of the Fiery Sun Bullet.

Gao Xian tried it out, and with the Thunderbolt Lightning Technique blessing, his speed could reach eight hundred and fifty zhang per breath.

In this state of rapid movement, the intangible spiritual energy is as viscous as water, limiting his speed within this range and preventing any improvement.

Gao Xian's concept of battle originated from modern warfare in his previous life, with two key points: mastering the initiative of battlefield information and possessing high-speed maneuverability.

He prioritized adding points to the Tai Zhen Occasional God in order to enhance his divine consciousness and gain control over the initiative of information as much as possible.

Adding points to the Yin Yang Treasure Wheel was to possess high-speed maneuverability. In times of disadvantage, he could retreat at any time, and in times of advantage, he could pursue quickly.

The speed of the Yin Yang Heavenly Wheel was limited. After thinking about it, Gao Xian invested 640,000 points into the Thunderbolt Electric Light Method, raising this secret technique to the level of Grandmaster.

Thunderbolt Electric Light Method: Thunderbolt as the cannon, electric light as the ring, infinite variations. (544/1,280,000) (Innate Divine Ability)

The Grandmaster level of the Thunderbolt Electric Light Method produced endless electric lights, constantly refining Gao Xian's body and soul.

This process lasted for half a day before it ended. When Gao Xian returned to normal, he found that he had broken through the limit of 850 zhang per breath and pushed his speed to the extreme of 1,000 zhang per breath.

At this point, he could escape the range of the Gold Core True Immortal's divine consciousness within one breath. No matter how capable the opponent was, they couldn't touch him.

With the Azure Lotus Sword in his hand, Gao Xian had already been wandering around the room for two weeks with a turn of his mind.

There was no obstruction in his movements, whether it was horizontal, vertical, forward, or backward. Even Foundation Building cultivators would find it difficult to sense his routes of movement.

The Thunderbolt Electric Light Method refined his whole body, making his physical reactions and spellcasting faster.

The power of the Thunderbolt Cannon greatly increased, especially the electric light ring. He could now activate it directly with his gaze, making it both concealed and fast.

With the increase in divine consciousness, speed, and reaction, Gao Xian needed to adapt to these comprehensive changes.

Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the Qingmu Flying Ship. He spent his days practicing in the cabin, refining his consciousness in the Heart and Mind Temple.

This continued until September 15th, the night of the full moon. Lü Jingxu suddenly came with a cheerful invitation for Gao Xian to drink and enjoy the moon.

The two sat on the top deck, toasting and drinking. Lü Jingxu casually said, "The full moon can cause spiritual energy anomalies. Demonic beasts and the demonic sects love the full moon. I wonder if anything will happen tonight..."

Before he finished speaking, a crimson light rose in the distance, blooming in the night sky like fireworks. It was the red distress signal from Azure Cloud Sect.

Lü Jingxu's expression changed, "Something really happened!"

He said to Gao Xian, "Junior brother, stay here and watch. I'll go take a look!"

"Senior brother, be careful."

Although Gao Xian was curious about what had happened, he didn't ask to go along.

Lü Jingxu instantly flew away on the Azure Light Umbrella. It wasn't a spell, but a powerful Law Weapon.

The flying speed was very fast, around 300 zhang per breath...

The bright moon in the sky illuminated the clear and transparent world, while the depths of the mountains and forests were dark.

Lü Jingxu had been gone for a while without any movement. Gao Xian was thinking about whether he should follow and take a look when he saw another direction in the sky burst into a large umbrella-like red light...

Lü Dafeng, who was in the cabin, also heard the commotion. He walked over to Gao Xian and looked at the shining red light in the sky, his face solemn.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Xian said, "Lü senior brother, stay here and watch. I'll go take a look..."

Before Lü Dafeng could speak, a faint golden light wheel behind Gao Xian rotated, and he instantly disappeared without a trace.

Although Lü Dafeng was solemn, he couldn't help but show surprise, "What kind of escape technique is this? How can it be so fast!"
