Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 312: Qingbai Liang Feixian

Facing the Sect Patriarch, Yun Changfeng, who was over two thousand years old and at the Nascent Soul True Monarch stage, didn't want the Patriarch to think he was inexperienced.

He hurriedly explained, "Patriarch, it's not that I'm unwilling. It's just that Five Elements Island is naturally restricted and will only open in two years' time.

"The people from Wanling Sect are also guarding it. It's not easy to obtain the Five-Colored Lotus Flower."

The Lihuo Underground Palace is located at the border between the two sects. In the past, several Gold Core cultivators were killed in the fight for the Lihuo Underground Palace, causing their relationship to break down.

As a result, both sects set up restrictions at the entrance of the Lihuo Underground Palace, completely sealing it off.

This time, due to the invasion of the Eastern Wasteland, the Wanling Sect Leader came to negotiate, and one of the conditions was to jointly explore the Lihuo Underground Palace.

During these two years, both sects have been exploring the Lihuo Underground Palace separately, and although there have been some friction between them, they have been relatively restrained.

There are natural restrictions on Five Elements Island, and now no one can enter. However, through secret methods, one can still catch a glimpse of the Five-Colored Lotus Flower in the middle of the island.

From its grade, this Five-Colored Lotus Flower has already reached the Ninth Grade.

Such a high-ranked spiritual object, even if its usage is limited, still has immeasurable value.

Yun Changfeng felt that this item was worth at least three to five million Low Grade Spirit Stones.

After exploring the Lihuo Underground Palace for so long, it was the first time they had discovered such a valuable spiritual object. Even if the Wanling Sect couldn't use it, they couldn't just let it go.

Of course, the Sect wouldn't let it go either, but how many resources and manpower would it take to compete for it?

Having paid a huge price, but giving it to Gao Xian, how could he win the support of others?

As the manager of the Sect, Yun Changfeng had to at least appear fair on the surface in order to make the others feel a sense of belonging to the Sect and maintain its cohesion.

Patriarch, Qing Xuan, they didn't care about the trivial matters and immediately said to give this item to Gao Xian.

But they didn't know how many people were watching, how could they just give it to anyone so easily?

Even if they wanted to give it to Gao Xian, they had to come up with a set of rules so that no one could say anything.

Yun Changfeng complained, "Patriarch, if we want to give it to Gao Xian, you should issue an edict, so that I can also explain to others."

Yun Zaitian smiled, "Your concerns are valid. Such an important spiritual object cannot be easily given away. We must establish some rules."

"Thank you, Patriarch, for your understanding." Yun Changfeng was so moved that he almost cried. He didn't need the Five-Colored Lotus Flower, so there was nothing to be reluctant about.

The Lihuo Underground Palace belongs to the Sect as a whole, and everyone is watching.

If cultivators from the Sect explore the Lihuo Underground Palace and secretly obtain something good, it's fine if others don't know.

But this high-grade Five-Colored Lotus Flower is different.

Yun Zaitian thought for a moment and said, "Let this item count as ten million good deeds. Let Gao Xian slowly repay it."

"That's how it should be. Others won't have anything to say."

Yun Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief. With this statement, he could explain to others.

If anyone is dissatisfied, they can first come up with ten million good deeds. Even if the other party can come up with it, he can still bring up the Patriarch.

With the Patriarch's instructions, who would still insist on snatching the Five-Colored Lotus Flower? They must have some problem with their brains.

Yun Changfeng asked again, "Patriarch, when do you think Qiu Shui will succeed?"

"He's not pure enough in his cultivation. After refining it like this, it will still take at least a year or two."

Although Patriarch Yun Zaitian didn't master the Sword Technique, at his level, he could still see some of it from a high perspective.

"A year and a half is nothing. As long as there is achievement, it's fine," Yun Changfeng sighed softly.

There were many cultivators in the Sect who practiced sword cultivation, but Yun Qiushui was the only one who specialized in the path of sword cultivation.

Even the Sect's founder couldn't provide much guidance to Yun Qiushui.

With a history of several thousand years, only a few sword cultivators had formed a Gold Core. They had very little experience in this area.

Yun Qiushui had been in closed-door training for several years, and Yun Changfeng was actually quite worried.

Fortunately, today he finally saw hope, which relieved Yun Changfeng.

"It's fortunate that we have Gao Xian, this sword genius. Qiushui is also lucky to have picked up this person. Haha..." Yun Zaitian laughed. If it weren't for Yun Qiushui's insistence, Gao Xian might not have joined Azure Cloud Sect.

The fact is, Gao Xian is a formidable genius. In his eyes, he could at least achieve a middle third-rank Gold Core, and there is hope for him to reach the upper third-rank.

If it weren't for the upheaval in the Eastern Wasteland, it would have been difficult to accommodate such a stunning figure.

But now there are fewer concerns. With the Sect's foundation, even if two more Nascent Souls were to emerge, they could barely afford to support them, at least for a few hundred years.

In the upcoming great changes, the additional Nascent Soul True Monarch would be an invaluable combat force.

Often, during such upheavals in the world, countless talented and powerful individuals emerge. That's why figures like Gao Xian suddenly appear out of nowhere!

Yun Zaitian couldn't help but sigh. He had lived peacefully for two thousand years and had no interest in competing with the world's strong.

But at this stage, he had no choice. Even Divine Transformation Daojun Yue Wanfeng might not be able to protect himself in the face of the overwhelming trend...

Yun Zaitian was well aware that he had a hard time with his second tribulation. Even if he worked hard in this lifetime, he could barely survive the third tribulation, let alone achieve Divine Transformation.

Not to mention encountering great changes, he probably wouldn't have the time or energy to prepare for the tribulation.

He reached out and casually drew a clear water mirror, which reflected Gao Xian in a green robe holding a sword.

"Hope still lies with the young..." Yun Zaitian sighed silently.

He thought for a moment and took out a transparent jade from his sleeve. This ancient Sword Heart left behind by a sword cultivator was originally intended for Yun Qiushui to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Now it seemed that Yun Qiushui was having a difficult time even with the Gold Core stage. It would be a long time before he could advance to the Advanced Grade Nascent Soul.

Instead of waiting, it would be better to use the Sword Heart now to lay a solid foundation for Yun Qiushui. With Gao Xian present, their sword duels could also stimulate the transformation of the Sword Heart.

Thinking of this, Yun Zaitian flicked his finger, and the transparent Sword Heart pierced through the water mirror and fell deep into Feixian Peak.

Gao Xian, who was practicing sword on Feixian Peak, faintly sensed someone spying on him but didn't pay much attention to it.

Within Azure Cloud Sect, only the high-level members could spy on him.

An anomaly on Feixian Peak would inevitably attract a lot of attention.

Fighting against Yun Qiushui's Sword Ray was also a good practice for him.

He had heard of the Taiwei Feixian Sword Technique for a long time but didn't know its mysteries.

This time, being able to duel with Yun Qiushui allowed him to witness the wonders of the Taiwei Feixian Sword Technique.

After fighting for half a day, Yun Qiushui seemed to have gained some insight and retracted his Sword Ray.

Gao Xian returned to his room and sat in meditation. He opened the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror in his sea of consciousness and saw that the proficiency of the Fengyun Sword Technique had increased by more than two thousand points.

This progress was very pleasing. If it continued to grow like this every day, he would soon reach the realm of Sword Technique Grandmaster.

He also felt that this progress was a bit exaggerated, but somehow, practicing sword on Feixian Peak made him feel as if he had divine assistance.

Gao Xian felt that Feixian Peak might have a special Spiritual Qi that was more conducive to cultivating sword insight.

The next day, Yun Qiushui once again released Sword Ray. Gao Xian accompanied him to spar with swords.

They sparred with swords like this every day, until December.

On this day, dark clouds covered the sky, heavy snow fell, and the mountains were covered in white.

Gao Xian sparred with Yun Qiushui in the midst of the snowstorm. Suddenly, he realized the connection between the wind and snow Sword intent and comprehended the Sword Technique of "Flowing Wind Returning Snow".

Gao Xian urged his Sword Ray, and suddenly it transformed. His Sword Ray floated like snow, gracefully swirling and rotating, and the cold and icy Sword intent silently penetrated inward, freezing Yun Qiushui's Sword Ray like a flying immortal.

In an instant, Yun Qiushui's Sword Ray was completely suppressed. Then, his Sword Ray shattered and dispersed.

This time, Yun Qiushui did not draw his sword again, but fell into a long silence.

For the past few months, Gao Xian had been sparring with Yun Qiushui, but he had not used his full Cultivation Base.

The two of them were not just sparring with swords, but also stimulating Yun Qiushui's potential.

The sudden realization made Gao Xian's Sword intent exceptionally profound, completely suppressing Yun Qiushui.

Gao Xian was also a little surprised. Did he dampen Yun Qiushui's fighting spirit?

When others had a Golden Core, he was just there to help. Now, he seemed to have taken over the spotlight.

He hadn't expected this sudden enlightenment. He just hoped that Yun Qiushui would become more courageous after facing setbacks.

Gao Xian looked at the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror in his sea of consciousness again, and the proficiency of the Wind and Cloud Sword Technique increased by more than 20,000 points...

Yun Qiushui was truly a good opponent! He was a first-class whetstone for sharpening swords.

Hmm, they were sharpening each other. No, they were honing their Sword Technique together. This couldn't be overlooked.

Two days later, Yun Qiushui's Sword Ray appeared again. This time, the Sword Ray of the Taiwei Feixian Sword Technique was more resolute, and the Sword Ray became even sharper.

Gao Xian was overjoyed. Good brother, that's how it should be. I'll accompany you on this journey. He raised his sword to meet it.

The Sword Rays crisscrossed, and time flowed along with them.

In the blink of an eye, the gentle spring breeze quietly arrived, melting the snow on the thousand mountains, and the withered grass and trees sprouted green shoots, full of vitality.

In the past, Gao Xian was accustomed to the changes of the four seasons in the world and didn't have much feeling about it.

But with Yun Qiushui as his opponent, it was different. As their Sword Rays intersected, Gao Xian gained a deeper understanding of the changes brought by the spring breeze.

On this night, Gao Xian was sparring with Yun Qiushui while fine spring rain silently fell.

Gao Xian sensed the spring rain and used the Sword intent of "Spring Breeze Melting Rain" to completely suppress Yun Qiushui's Sword Ray again.

With the experience from last time, Gao Xian realized that he couldn't be too polite to Yun Qiushui. Without experiencing setbacks, how could he discover his own weaknesses?

By using the changes of the heavens and earth to display his Sword intent, Gao Xian pushed the Sword intent of "Spring Breeze Melting Rain" to a higher level.

Stimulated by this, Yun Qiushui, who drew his sword again, became even more transcendent, as if he was sitting back and watching the four seasons change, free from worldly dust.

Yun Qiushui's Sword Technique Realm had clearly made a breakthrough this time, and his Sword intent had become much stronger.

Yun Qiushui made great progress this time, so Gao Xian had to be careful in dealing with him.

In the blink of an eye, summer arrived. One day, thunder roared in the sky, and heavy rain poured down.

While sparring with swords, Gao Xian realized the Sword intent of "Wind and Thunder Roaring", which was powerful, but even more powerful was the torrential rain and fierce wind that followed the wind and thunder, possessing earth-shattering power.

The wind, thunder, and rain come quickly and leave even faster. In no time at all, the clouds disperse, the rain stops, and the scorching sun shines high in the sky.

Such celestial phenomena and their ever-changing nature have allowed Gao Xian to comprehend the true meaning of "turning clouds and overturning rain."

"Turning clouds and overturning rain" refers to the transformation from wind to clouds, and from clouds to various changes such as thunder, lightning, rain, and snow. Therefore, this technique of "turning clouds and overturning rain" is the essence of the Wind and Cloud Sword Scripture.

With this understanding, Gao Xian feels as if he has broken through some invisible barrier, and everything suddenly becomes clear and natural, like a clear spring flowing through his mind.

Gao Xian doesn't need to look at the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror; he knows that his Sword Technique Realm has made a breakthrough.

A sense of joy arises in his heart.

Yun Qiushui, who is currently sparring with Gao Xian, also senses his joy, and their sword intents resonate with each other, causing Yun Qiushui's Sword Ray to suddenly surge.

A strand of Sword Ray shoots up into the sky, as if it wants to cut through the heavens and fly straight to the Immortal Realm.

The Sword Ray disappears without a trace, and Yun Qiushui falls silent.

Gao Xian knows that Yun Qiushui has also made a breakthrough in his Sword Technique, and he has truly entered the Golden Core state.

Yun Qiushui has been silent for several months until October, when a Sword Ray suddenly shoots up into the sky, causing the clouds in the sky to gather and faintly rumble with thunder and wind.

The mist and clouds on Feixian Peak are swirling, and there are faint sounds of dragons and tigers roaring...

The Sword Ray rushes into the sky and flows down like water, completely covering Feixian Peak.

This phenomenon attracts the attention of many Gold Core Perfected Beings from the Azure Cloud Sect.

Yun Changfeng, a member of the sect, feels delighted and thinks that it's done.

Yun Changfeng immediately flies into the sky and heads straight for Feixian Peak. When he arrives, he sees Yun Qingxuan has also arrived.

There are also some other Gold Core Perfected Beings around, and everyone tacitly waits in the sky.

In no time at all, the turbulent clouds in the sky gradually dissipate, and the flowing Sword Ray also converges.

The sealed stone wall on Feixian Peak shatters with a loud noise, and Yun Qiushui, dressed in white, emerges while holding his sword. His face is filled with joy, and his eyes shine like flickering lightning.

Gao Xian smiles and cups his hands, saying, "Congratulations, Brother Yun."

"It's thanks to Brother Gao accompanying me in sword practice that I was able to achieve the Golden Core by chance."

Yun Qiushui also cups his hands in return and says, "Brother Gao, your contribution is immense this time. I owe you a great favor."

"We are friends, so there's no need to mention such things. How about you convert it into Spirit Stones instead..."

"Hahaha..."

Yun Qiushui laughs heartily and asks, "In this situation, Brother Gao, do you have any poetic verses?"

Gao Xian ponders for a moment and recites, "Sword Qi sweeps through the mist and smoke, cold light dyes the green mountains. Autumn water emerges among the stones, a white-robed immortal takes flight..."

"Great poem, great poem," Yun Qiushui says after thinking for a moment. "But the last line can be changed to 'Autumn water reflects Gao Xian, two immortals flying together in blue and white!'"

Many Gold Core Perfected Beings around hear their conversation. Yun Changfeng smiles bitterly, thinking that his son is too arrogant. Yun Qingxuan remains indifferent, not thinking much of it.

However, the other Gold Core Perfected Beings have complex expressions, each with their own thoughts...
