Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 282: Invitation

The Five Elements Sword Qi condensed into a sword, fierce and powerful, yet gentle and flowing like water. (1200/20000 Grandmaster) (Innate Divine Ability)

Gao Xian looked at the annotations on the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror about the Great Five Elements Sword Qi, a smile appearing on his face.

The Five Elements spiritual objects given by Yun Taihao were very powerful. After refining them all, Gao Xian's Great Five Elements Sword Qi had reached the Grandmaster realm.

At this stage, the Great Five Elements Sword Qi had already achieved a balance between strength and flexibility, able to change at will.

Gao Xian had already sensed the changes of the Reverse Five Elements, but unfortunately, he hadn't truly comprehended it.

The Great Five Elements Gong and the Five Elements Combined Qi actually formed a cycle of positive and reverse elements.

His cultivation was still too shallow. At this point, he only knew the superficial knowledge and was still imitating the secret techniques.

After all, it was a fundamental secret technique. Although he could enhance his understanding through the Tai Zhen Ou Shen, it wasn't easy to comprehend its essence.

Fortunately, the Great Five Elements Sword Qi was relatively simple, a Divine Ability naturally derived from the Great Five Elements Gong.

Gao Xian tried the Great Five Elements Sword Qi and found that its power had increased by at least fifty percent compared to before.

The key was that he could instantly activate it, making it very convenient to use.

Compared to other secret techniques, the Great Five Elements Sword Qi was more balanced and didn't have any outstanding features.

It was not as mysterious as the Great Principle Soul Formation's clone technique, not as powerful as the Vajra Staff, and not as convenient and quick as the Fiery Yang Bullet or the Profound Ice Arrow.

The Wind and Cloud Sword Technique was a different path and was difficult to reconcile with the Great Five Elements Sword Qi.

Gao Xian rarely used the Great Five Elements Sword Qi in the past. Now that it had reached the Grandmaster level, it was enough to deal with enemies in normal situations.

Coming out of the underground secret chamber, Gao Xian saw that the peach blossoms on the mountain had already withered, not a single petal in sight.

The peculiar peach blossoms on Xuan Du Peak bloomed in autumn and winter, withering in spring and summer.

It was already mid-April, the time when peach blossoms bloomed in other places, but here on Xuan Du Peak, the peach blossoms had already fallen.

Gao Xian stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the out-of-season scenery of Xuan Du Peak, feeling a unique charm.

Mainly because his cultivation had made progress and his mood was extremely good, everything he saw was beautiful.

The master alchemist in the pill refining room saw Gao Xian and shouted through the window, "Brother, you've come out of seclusion."

Before Gao Xian could speak, the master alchemist hurriedly ran out of the pill refining room, wiping his hands on his clothes.

He was always busy refining pills and dealing with various herbs, so his hands were not very clean.

After wiping his hands a few times, the master alchemist took out an invitation letter from his storage bag and handed it to Gao Xian.

"Brother, someone came to deliver this invitation letter a while ago. They claimed to be from the Shui Family."

The master alchemist rarely left the courtyard while refining pills, but he also knew that the Azure Cloud Sect's Shui Family was very powerful.

He didn't dare to neglect it and hurriedly sent the invitation card when he saw Gao Xian coming out.

Gao Xian took the invitation card and realized that it was made of gold, but he didn't know how it was processed to present a blue cloud pattern texture.

Opening the invitation card, the content written on it was very simple, just inviting him to a banquet at Changle Tower.

Looking at the date, it was scheduled for the fifteenth of May, which was still some time away.

The signature was Shui Yuying, and there was a complex emblem drawn behind it, which upon closer inspection was composed of dozens of cloud patterns forming a talisman.

Gao Xian read through the complete "Cloud Pattern Secret Explanation" and, relying on his photographic memory, had a general understanding of cloud patterns.

He could barely recognize that this talisman represented water, probably a unique emblem of the Water Clan, and the emblem also had the unique Gold Core aura of Shui Yuying.

It was roughly equivalent to an anti-counterfeiting mark, but with a higher level of sophistication.

In such details, the noble families truly displayed their heritage, which ordinary cultivators couldn't compare to.

Gao Xian was lacking in this aspect, just tagging along with Daniu, who was his little brother.

There was nothing special about his clothing, food, shelter, or transportation. It was already good enough if the elixirs he usually took could meet his needs.

Gao Xian lightly tapped the invitation card, quite liking this luxurious and pretentious style, and even feeling a bit envious.

He wasn't very opposed to noble families; in this regard, he was actually quite open-minded.

Sects, clans, noble families, and gangs were ultimately just different organizational structures, with different bonds maintaining these structures.

Sects relied on faith, clans relied on secret technique inheritance, noble families relied on bloodlines, and gangs were more complicated, usually bound by interests.

In a broader sense, the Human Race and the Beast Race were actually just different organizations, using racial bloodlines as the bond.

In the world of cultivators, the distinction between the Human Race and the Beast Race was particularly important. The basic understanding of all Human Race cultivators was that humans and demons couldn't coexist.

Although Gao Xian was a transmigrator, as a member of the Human Race, his allegiance was first and foremost to the Human Race, and he wouldn't think about things like harmonious coexistence between humans and demons.

Joining the Azure Cloud Sect was the same. His allegiance was to the Yun Clan, even though he had no bloodline connection to them.

He had to maintain a certain distance from other noble families or forces.

His friendship with Lu Jingxu was also because Lu Jingxu had a close relationship with the Yun Clan, so he didn't have any concerns in that regard.

Gao Xian was well aware that in an organization with various factions, what everyone disliked the most was a fence-sitter and what they couldn't accept was a traitor.

The Shui Clan naturally understood this principle, so from the beginning, Shui Yuying treated him as a member of the Yun Clan.

Yun Qingxuan and Yun Qiushui couldn't suppress him anymore, and they could see that his influence was growing stronger. The people of the Shui Clan definitely wanted to suppress him.

It wasn't just the conflict between him and Shui Yuying, but more importantly, it was a power struggle between the high-level members of the Yun and Shui Clans.

If he achieved the Gold Core stage, he would definitely enter the high-level ranks of the Azure Cloud Sect.

There were only a few positions available, with the Yun Clan occupying one more and the Shui Clan occupying one less.

This is a case of one side gaining while the other side loses, and the gap is quite significant.

The Shui family would rather let someone else hold this position than give it to the Yun family.

Gao Xian understands that this contradiction is irreconcilable, which is why he suspects that the Shui family has informed the Yin Demon Sect, leading to the arrival of Yin Baishi.

However, he has been quite high-profile in Lianyun City, and everyone in the city knows that he is here.

In this situation, it is a bit forced to say that the Shui family informed the Yin Demon Sect. It is even more impossible to find any strong evidence.

Gao Xian only keeps a mental note of the Shui family's actions and has no intention of investigating the matter, let alone causing trouble for the Shui family because of it.

As a result, Shui Yuying took the initiative to come to him. Does this mean she can't wait to turn against him and take action?

Gao Xian also feels that this is unlikely. Shui Yuying is fierce but cowardly, she doesn't have the courage to kill the true transmission of the God's Heaven Sect.

At least, she doesn't have the courage to do it herself, and it is even less likely that she would take action against him in Azure Cloud City.

What does this invitation mean? Does she want to sleep with him?

Gao Xian thinks that Shui Yuying is only capable of this, using her feminine wiles to play tricks.

If that's the case, he should thank Shui Yuying.

Of course, even if he has a powerful weapon, he cannot be careless.

In the world of cultivators, there are various mysterious spells, Law Weapons, and spiritual objects. The methods are ever-changing and must not be taken lightly.

It is only April now, but by May, he will have accumulated over one million Human Dao Spiritual Light, enough to upgrade the Thunderous Lightning Law.

At that time, no matter if Shui Yuying wants to seduce him or play any tricks, he will accompany her to the end.

Gao Xian accepted the invitation and continued with his normal alchemy and classes.

After more than a month of seclusion, there were even more disciples coming to his classes. Among them was Li Feihuang.

Gao Xian glanced at Li Feihuang and found that she looked proud and had no reaction to him.

He found it amusing that she had become arrogant again after becoming a true disciple.

Gao Xian didn't care too much. His relationship with Li Feihuang was simply a relationship of dual cultivation.

It wouldn't matter if they broke it off.

Gao Xian taught his classes as usual. His Wind and Cloud Sword Technique had reached the level of a grandmaster, allowing him to take a big step forward in swordsmanship.

It is not an exaggeration to say that in terms of swordsmanship, he has surpassed Yun Qiushui.

Although Azure Cloud Sect is large, it is not an exaggeration for him to claim to be the number one in swordsmanship.

Even if a group of Qi Refining and Foundation Building cultivators or a group of Gold Core Perfected Beings were sitting below, Gao Xian could make them acknowledge his skill.

Whether it is the principles of swordsmanship or the subtle changes in specific sword moves, Gao Xian can explain them clearly and thoroughly.

Li Feihuang, who was listening to the class, was also somewhat surprised. She had received Gao Xian's oral transmission and even directly received Sword Intent through divine inspiration. She felt that she had already grasped the essence of swordsmanship.

Not to mention surpassing Gao Xian, at least she was not inferior to him in swordsmanship.

Listening to Gao Xian's lecture, she realized that her understanding of swordsmanship was too rudimentary and there was a huge gap between her and Gao Xian.

Li Feihuang gritted her teeth secretly. She treated this guy so well, yet he was hiding things from her!

She made up her mind to go find Gao Xian tonight.

On the side, Lu Mengmeng was ecstatic, her big eyes shining brightly. She couldn't help but say to Li Feihuang, "Teacher Gao's lecture was amazing, one sentence is worth three years of my hard practice!"

She muttered in a low voice, "I wish I could become Teacher Gao's disciple."

Li Feihuang looked strange, "What do you want to tell me about becoming his disciple?"

Lu Mengmeng tried to please her, "Sister Feihuang, you have a good relationship with Teacher Gao, can you help me...?"

"I don't have a relationship with him."

Li Feihuang hurriedly denied it. She couldn't let her relationship with Gao Xian be exposed, otherwise, Gao Xian would be in trouble with Yun Qingxuan.

Lu Mengmeng couldn't help but pout. Everyone said that Li Feihuang learned the essence of the Clear Wind Sword Scripture and Sword Intent from Gao Xian, but she said there was no relationship!

This woman, hmph, she has no loyalty at all!

An angry Lu Mengmeng hurriedly followed Gao Xian after class, ignoring Li Feihuang.

Li Feihuang was also helpless. Her relationship with Gao Xian was very complicated, and she couldn't explain it to Lu Mengmeng.

At night, Li Feihuang quietly flew up to Xuan Du Peak.

Li Feihuang originally intended to question Gao Xian about why he was hiding things, but before she could explain, somehow she ended up rolling with Gao Xian...

For a while, their souls were turned upside down, wanting to ascend to heaven and die, forgetting everything...

On Xuan Xiao Peak, Shui Yuying and Shui Yujun were both watching in front of the Sky Mirror.

Although they couldn't see the situation in the room through the formation, they could guess what Gao Xian and Li Feihuang were doing.

Shui Yuying sneered disdainfully, "Li Feihuang relies on her Phoenix Spirit Body and acts arrogantly, as if no one can approach her. I didn't expect her to be a willing slut."

Shui Yujun calmly asked, "What does Li Feihuang's character have to do with your affairs?"

"With Zhou Yuling, plus this leverage of Li Feihuang, Gao Xian can only obediently listen to my manipulation..." Shui Yuying proudly said.

"In my opinion, Gao Xian is deep and not the kind of infatuated person," Shui Yujun frowned slightly and reminded her, "Moreover, his dual cultivation with Li Feihuang does not violate the rules of the sect. I'm afraid your plan won't work."

"I know what to do, you don't need to worry about it."

Shui Yuying was full of confidence, "Gao Xian can't escape from my grasp this time!"
