Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Dugu Bo followed Jiang Yuan as they quickly fled towards the Eastern Domain, continuing to speak.

"This is why I mentioned the Void Scripture to you. One of the sword techniques within it is the ultimate move that combines the essence of the three thousand Great Daos in the world, reaching an infinite limit."

"With the Spatial Great Dao as its core, this sword technique is perfectly suited for you!"

"Otherwise, even if you achieve the Dao and become a Saint, it won't be easy to kill the Saints of the Monster Race."

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt a strong desire.

There was no doubt that this sword technique was a supreme method capable of killing Dao Integration Saints.

It was much stronger than the Primordial Spirit Slashing Technique.

After all, the Primordial Spirit Slashing Technique had its limitations. It could kill enemies, but at a great cost to oneself and was difficult to sustain.

It was manageable to kill one or two, but when the numbers increased, the backlash on one's own Primordial Spirit became unbearable.

If the Primordial Spirit was injured, the consequences would be endless, as it was extremely difficult to heal such injuries.

As Dugu Bo said, this sword technique was different. Its concept was lofty, with an infinite limit.

The more of the three thousand Great Daos one mastered, the stronger it became.

In the end, it could reach the level of opening heaven, opening the world, and opening the universe with a single sword.

Even if one couldn't achieve such an ideal state, it would still be terrifying to be able to open up heaven and earth with a single sword.

As long as there was a separation between heaven and earth, the influence of the three thousand Great Daos would inevitably weaken. In this way, the Saints would go from being flawless to having flaws, their status would decline, and their strength would naturally decrease.

If one could reach the state of the fragments of the Ancient Heavenly Court, it would be even more terrifying.

Creating a world without a Great Dao, losing the support of the three thousand Great Daos, the so-called Saints would lose their strongest reliance, and their strength would be less than ten percent.

When Jiang Yuan thought of all this, he immediately spoke.

"Has the Dean mastered this sword technique?"

Dugu Bo said, "Of course! In the Void Scripture, this sword technique is recorded, but there are no more than three people in the world who can master it."

"This technique requires a high level of mastery in the Spatial Great Dao, as well as a high level of mastery in the Five Elements Great Dao or the Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire Great Daos."

"With the Spatial Great Dao as the main focus and the Five Elements or Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire Great Daos as the auxiliary, one can open heaven and earth with a single sword, creating a separate world, weakening the influence of the three thousand Great Daos, or even severing their influence."

"In my opinion, this sword technique in the Void Scripture is extremely suitable for you."

"The Void Scripture can also be called one of the strongest scriptures, perhaps it will inspire you."

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Jiang Yuan respectfully said, "Thank you, Dean!"

Dugu Bo smiled and said, "Since you want to transcend the tribulation and become a Saint in the starry sky, you also need a means to kill Saints."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan felt a warm current in his heart.

Eastern Domain.

In less than an hour's time, the two of them appeared at the entrance of the Holy Academy.

"You're back!" Jiang Yuan sighed.

Dugu Bo looked at Jiang Yuan and also felt a deep sigh in his heart.

In less than an hour, they had returned from the Northern Wasteland, billions of miles away, to the Eastern Domain.

Who could have imagined that such a thing would happen to a genius below a Saint?

Such methods were rare even among the Saints.

Only those who had a high level of mastery in the Spatial Great Dao could achieve this.

Moreover, his student was only at the Grotto-Heaven Realm. If he broke through to become a Saint and his cultivation increased, his speed would skyrocket once again.

At that time, the seemingly vast Five Domains and Four Seas would be nothing more than a small place.

After a moment.

The two of them arrived in front of the library of the Holy Court.

Jiang Yuan walked in first, following the memories in his mind. He bypassed several bookshelves and arrived at a corner on the first floor of the library.

Dugu Bo quietly followed Jiang Yuan's footsteps from behind.

He was aware of Jiang Yuan's purpose for coming here this time, as Jiang Yuan had mentioned it to him on the way.

He was also curious. Could there really be immortals in this world?

Having experienced the cycles of countless epochs, living until now, and even personally witnessing the Heavenly Emperor in the ancient Heavenly Court, what kind of person was that?

He also yearned to see the demeanor of this immortal.

At this moment.

Jiang Yuan picked up a yellowed ancient book.

The corners of the book were slightly curled, and there was a thin layer of dust on it.

This indicated that this ancient book on the first floor of the library of the Holy Court was not valued.

If it had been given enough attention, how could there be floating dust on it?

Hoo--

Jiang Yuan gently blew on the surface of the ancient book, instantly blowing away the floating dust.

Then.

He slowly opened the ancient book.

Although the information recorded in it had been scanned by his divine sense before and was now clearly imprinted in his mind.

But he still slowly flipped through the ancient book, his gaze moving down line by line. The speed of his observation was not fast, or rather, it was very slow.

For someone of his cultivation level, let alone a book as thick as a finger, even if there were tens of thousands of books like this, they would be scanned by his divine sense in an instant, and their contents would be memorized in his mind.

But at this moment, Jiang Yuan would pause for more than ten breaths with each page he turned.

In just a dozen pages of the yellowed ancient book, Jiang Yuan spent more than a hundred breaths to completely read it.

Dugu Bo stood quietly behind him, and it wasn't until Jiang Yuan finished reading that he spoke.

"How is it? What does it record inside?"

"Is there any discrepancy with your previous memories?"

Jiang Yuan handed the ancient book to Dugu Bo.

"Dean, see for yourself!"

With these words, Dugu Bo, full of curiosity, took the yellowed ancient book from Jiang Yuan's hand.

After hearing Jiang Yuan's description earlier, he was very curious about this ancient book.

After all, it was a book left behind by a suspected immortal.

Although he instinctively didn't believe that there could be someone in this world who could achieve immortality.

But Jiang Yuan told him that it was not impossible, that some people were born different.

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, he instantly thought of Jiang Yuan's growth trajectory.

In just a few years, he had grown to this level. He didn't believe that Jiang Yuan had nothing special about him.

Now that Jiang Yuan said this, he was somewhat skeptical.

The reason for this was that Jiang Yuan was very likely the kind of special person he was talking about.

Just like the Dao Ancestor, just like the Heavenly Emperor.

Those special and great existences must have something special about them from birth.

At this moment.

Dugu Bo was slowly flipping through the ancient book in his hand.

Jiang Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and in his gaze, he unexpectedly discovered the karmic threads entwined around this ancient book.

Sure enough!

Jiang Yuan's heart suddenly rejoiced, but then he secretly thought to himself.

Judging from the appearance of this ancient book, it must have been around for a long time.

Yet it still has karmic threads entwined. If these threads originate from the author of this book, then it means that the unknown existence is still alive in this world.

If that's the case, then the words recorded by this person in the book may indeed be true.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan's eyes flickered, and his gaze followed the karmic threads entwined in the ancient book.

In an instant...

Jiang Yuan felt as if his gaze had crossed through endless time and arrived at an unknown place.

Everything here was nothingness, pure nothingness.

Time did not exist, nothing existed, only pure and extreme nothingness.

In this void, Jiang Yuan's eyes only saw a pair of profound eyes, like the abyss of purgatory.

As they locked gazes, these eyes seemed capable of devouring endless time and all things in the world.

"Hahaha—"

A burst of mad laughter, filled with extreme joy and tears, reached Jiang Yuan's ears.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for providing me with the coordinates!"

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Yuan was suddenly horrified.

"Awaken!"

A loud shout echoed in Jiang Yuan's ears, as if a bell was ringing right next to him.

In that instant, Jiang Yuan's gaze also instantly left this unknown place.

At the same time...

In the void...

An old man, about fifty years old, stood on a golden dragon bone, silently floating in this place.

His clothes were tattered, his hair withered and growing haphazardly like dry grass.

But the most crucial thing was his eyes. Madness occasionally flashed in his eyes, as if his consciousness was somewhat confused.

But at this moment, he was laughing wildly here.

"Coordinates!"

"I finally found the coordinates!!!"

"I can finally go back!!!"

"Hahahaha—"

...

A burst of hysterical laughter continuously emanated from the old man's mouth.

The laughter spread through the void and disappeared into the depths of nothingness.

Time had no meaning in this place.

After a long time, he finally suppressed his ecstatic joy.

Then the expression in his eyes gradually returned to normal.

The next moment...

His fingers moved slightly, as if calculating something.

After several breaths...

"How strange!!"

He muttered to himself, "How could I not deduce any information? Could it be another powerful being surpassing me?"

"This is impossible!"

"After experiencing countless epochs, there was only one creature, known as the Heavenly Emperor, who was stronger than me!"

"Even the Three Clear Heavenly Venerables from the previous epoch were only on par with me. Why are there two beings in this epoch surpassing me?"

A serious contemplation flashed across his withered face.

After a moment passed,

The withered old man smiled, the corners of his mouth tearing all the way to his ears, and the skin on his face seemed to be wriggling around the bones.

"Never mind all that!"

"Now that I have obtained the coordinates to return, let's go back first!"

"I wonder what the outcome of that battle in the upstream of the river of time was?"

"Fortunately, I ran fast and managed to escape in time after the Heavenly Emperor died in battle. Otherwise, wouldn't I have died alongside the Heavenly Emperor?"

.

As the withered old man spoke, he stepped on a golden dragon bone and, relying on the coordinates he had just obtained, crossed this void and walked on the path of return.

Eastern Domain.

The Holy Academy.

"What just happened to you?"

Dugu Bo looked at Jiang Yuan, who had a frightened expression on his face, his expression becoming extremely serious.

Dugu Bo had never seen Jiang Yuan with such a frightened expression before.

Hoo--

Hoo--

Jiang Yuan took several deep breaths in succession, slowly exhaling, gradually calming down the fear in his heart.

After more than ten breaths, his emotions gradually calmed down.

"Dean, it seems like I've caused trouble!"

As he spoke, Jiang Yuan felt deep regret in his heart.

Originally, he thought that with the special nature of his Innate luck, he could transcend the Three Realms, exist outside the Five Elements, and be independent of the Heavenly Mechanism, unaffected by cause and effect.

He believed that with these characteristics, he could fear nothing.

No matter who he probed, he couldn't be discovered.

But this time, he was completely wrong!

He underestimated the existence of those taboo-like beings.

From the words he heard from that taboo existence, he knew.

It was because of him that the taboo existence lost in the void found the coordinates of this world.

Now, that taboo existence might already be following the guidance of the coordinates, walking on the path back to this world.

Once such a taboo existence returns, no one knows what kind of major event will occur.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan felt deep regret in his heart.

At this moment,

Dugu Bo also heard Jiang Yuan's words.

"Trouble? What trouble did you cause?"

Dugu Bo looked surprised.

Jiang Yuan slowly spoke, "I have grasped a part of the Great Dao of cause and effect!"

Before Jiang Yuan could continue, he was interrupted by Dugu Bo's words.

"You actually mastered the Great Dao of cause and effect?"

He looked surprised, with a hint of shock in his eyes.

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Yes!"

Dugu Bo suppressed his astonishment and continued, "Please continue, I won't interrupt you."

But Jiang Yuan didn't speak directly this time. Instead, he asked, "Dean, have you finished reading the ancient book in your hand?"

Dugu Bo nodded slightly, "Yes, I have finished."

Jiang Yuan said, "I mentioned before that this ancient book seems to have been written by an immortal. This immortal lived for countless epochs and personally witnessed the Heavenly Emperor of the Upper Realm's Ancient Heavenly Court."

Dugu Bo nodded again, "I thought it was just a collection of strange stories before, and I didn't take the records seriously. But now, it's different!"

"If the records in this ancient book are true, then the author of this book is terrifying beyond imagination!"

"To live for countless epochs, it's unimaginable."

"To live for so long, even a pig would surpass all living beings."

"Not to mention someone like this. If this person can really live for so long, no one knows how strong their power is!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, agreeing with this.

Then he sighed deeply.

"Just now, out of curiosity, I followed the cause and effect line in this ancient book and my gaze fell on an unknown place."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes suddenly narrowed, his mouth slightly agape, but he hesitated to speak and remained silent.

Jiang Yuan continued, "That unknown place is a pure void, giving me the feeling that time and space do not exist there, and everything returns to nothingness, only pure emptiness."

"But I also saw a person there!"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but speak, "You saw a person, who was it?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head, "I couldn't see clearly, I only saw a pair of eyes, eyes as vast as an abyss and purgatory, as if they could bury all living beings."

"This person is probably the one who wrote this ancient book!"

Dugu Bo's eyes suddenly narrowed upon hearing this, murmuring to himself.

"So, are there really immortals in the world?"

As he spoke, his eyes flickered with an incredible light.

Jiang Yuan nodded slowly, "It's highly possible!"

Dugu Bo asked again, "Even so, what does this have to do with your trouble?"

Jiang Yuan slowly spoke, "This person said something!"

"What did he say?" Dugu Bo couldn't help but speak.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for helping me find the coordinates!" Jiang Yuan spoke slowly again.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's expression suddenly changed, becoming extremely unpleasant.

"Did he really say that?"

"Yes!" Jiang Yuan nodded.

"In that case, isn't that forbidden existence on the path of returning?" Dugu Bo's expression became serious, his brows furrowed.

Jiang Yuan nodded again, "It should be! This forbidden existence was originally lost in this strange place for unknown reasons, but now, because of me, he has found the coordinates to return!"

"Perhaps in the next moment, or perhaps countless years later, this forbidden existence will return to this world."

"A supreme existence like this is a calamity, not a blessing!"

After listening to Jiang Yuan's words, Dugu Bo nodded in agreement.

"You're right! It's a calamity, not a blessing!"

"But it's too late to change anything now. This matter has already been decided, and we have no power to reverse it!"

"Even if the immortal truly returns, I believe he will not stay in this mortal world for too long."

"The dragon does not dwell with the snake!"

"In the presence of such a being, we are all no different from ants. I believe he will not bother to step on the ants by the roadside out of boredom. After all, this person has lived for several epochs, and I believe his temperament has long transcended worldly matters."

Jiang Yuan nodded helplessly at this moment.

"We can only do this! We have no power to stop it, we can only hope that it will not have any impact on us!"

Dugu Bo also nodded, his eyes filled with contemplation.

Then, he spoke again, "The pure void place you just mentioned, I suspect it is the Void Sea?"

"The Void Sea?" Jiang Yuan was slightly surprised.

Dugu Bo nodded, "Yes! I suspect it is the Void Sea."

Jiang Yuan asked, "What is the Void Sea? What does it represent?"

Dugu Bo shook his head slightly, "I can't answer that question either. This name is only passed down in certain ancient books."

"If you can go to the Upper Realm, perhaps you can find the answer, but in this mortal world, it is basically impossible!"

Jiang Yuan could only nod.

Dugu Bo raised the yellowed ancient book in his hand.

"What do you think of the records in this ancient book?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head, "I can't guarantee its authenticity, but I feel that it must have a certain degree of credibility."

"But now, it seems that the forbidden powerhouse left behind this ancient book with deep meaning."

"I estimate that he has left many things like this in this mortal world."

Dugu Bo seemed lost in thought, his eyes flickering slightly.

"You mean, these things he left behind might be coordinates?"

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Yes! I suspect so!"

"If what the dean said is true, that place is the Void Sea."

"Then perhaps the Void Sea can escape the calamity of the epochs!"

"But there is a risk of getting lost in it, so these coordinates were left behind."

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Dugu Bo nodded in agreement.

"I also agree with your viewpoint, perhaps it is as you said."

"Perhaps there is not only one person who has escaped the calamity of the epochs, but other forbidden existences are also hiding in the Void Sea, waiting to return."

Jiang Yuan suddenly felt a headache and shook his head.

"Let's forget about this matter!"

"This matter is too high and too far away from us!"

Jiang Yuan then smiled, "Dean, I will go and pay my respects to the two senior brothers first! Since I have come to the Holy Academy, it is only right to pay my respects."

Dugu Bo nodded with a smile.

"Alright, you may go!"

"I will wait for you in that courtyard!"

"Come find me later, and I will take you to Heavenly Origin Holy Land to have a look at the Void Path Scripture."

Jiang Yuan clasped his hands, "Thank you, Dean!"

Dugu Bo smiled slightly, "You may go first!"

"Then I will take my leave!" Jiang Yuan bowed.

Afterwards, he walked out of the library.

After a moment.

Dong dong dong--

Jiang Yuan knocked on the door of the courtyard.

Creak--

As the courtyard door opened, a sharp sound reached his ears.

What came into Jiang Yuan's sight was a girl with two braided hair buns on her head, wearing a green dress.

"Oh, it's Jiang gege! Please come in, gege!"

The girl in the green dress smiled, revealing two small dimples, and raised her hand to gesture for Jiang Yuan to come in.

Jiang Yuan also smiled, not unfamiliar with this girl.

When he first met Senior Qu Qing by the lake, it was this girl who led the way.

This girl was also the one among the many life forms created by Qu Qing that he had seen before, with purple Innate luck.

Jiang Yuan's thoughts stirred slightly.

The golden aura lingering around the girl immediately flowed into his panel.

Then, Jiang Yuan stepped over the threshold and followed the girl's light footsteps.

The girl walked with her hands behind her back, occasionally tiptoeing and taking a few steps, or turning around to smile at Jiang Yuan as she walked backward towards the backyard.

"Jiang gege, do you know? It's so boring in the Holy Academy! It's all familiar people and familiar scenery. No one has come here for a long time."

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, "Then have you ever thought about going out?"

The girl in the green dress shook her head.

"Father said we can't go out yet!"

"Well then!" Jiang Yuan said, not wanting to say anything more.

Qu Qing's residence was not big, with only a front yard and a backyard.

Led by the girl in the green dress, Jiang Yuan passed through a round archway and came to the backyard, where he saw Qu Qing sitting in the pavilion.

Qu Qing was wearing a green robe and holding a wine gourd, pouring it into the wine cup in front of him.

Surrounded by lush bamboo forests and murmuring streams.

With a gentle breeze, one could hear the sound of the bamboo sea.

"Young junior brother, you've come at the right time. Have a drink with me!"

Jiang Yuan smiled, "Sure!"

[Name]: Qu Qing

[Realm]: Grotto-Heaven Realm, Seventh Layer

[Innate luck]: Heart of All Beings (Gold), Divine Bones Golden Body (Gold), Dragon-like Vital Energy (Purple), Divine Soul Embryo Breathing (Purple), Unparalleled Wisdom (Purple)

[Heart of All Beings]: Constantly generates new personalities, each personality can give birth to new Innate luck of the highest level, which is purple.

[Divine Bones Golden Body]: Residing in divine bones, the golden body is self-formed.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Qu Qing's panel, but there was no change.

He wasn't surprised either, as it had only been a year or two since he first met Qu Qing.

Normally, it wouldn't be so easy to break through to the Grotto-Heaven Realm.

Even for ordinary geniuses, it would be considered fast to break through a small realm in a dozen or twenty years.

Jiang Yuan immediately closed Qu Qing's panel and his thoughts stirred slightly.

The golden aura that had condensed on Qu Qing's body during this time instantly flowed into Jiang Yuan's panel.

After completing this, Jiang Yuan sat down in front of Qu Qing.

"Greetings, Senior Brother. Your life is truly enviable!"

Qu Qing smiled, "What's there to envy? I've been in the Holy Academy for so many years."

"Unlike you, so much has happened to me in these past few years!"

As the words fell, Qu Qing raised his glass.

"Let's have a drink!"

Jiang Yuan raised his glass in response, gesturing, "I should be the one to toast to you, senior brother!"

Qu Qing smiled faintly, "There's no need for such formalities with me."

Jiang Yuan nodded obediently, and the two of them drank their glasses.

As the wine entered their throats, Jiang Yuan closed his eyes and savored it for a moment before opening his eyes and exclaiming,

"Good wine! This wine has a hint of bamboo fragrance, refreshing to the heart and seems to have a slight effect of enhancing the Primordial Spirit."

Qu Qing smiled, "You're right! Junior brother has a good taste!"

As they spoke, the girl in the green dress on the side immediately filled their glasses with wine.

Jiang Yuan raised his glass, "A toast to senior brother!"

Qu Qing smiled, "Cheers!"

The two of them finished their drinks once again.

The girl in the green dress on the side quickly refilled their glasses.

With the third glass of wine entering their stomachs,

Both of them slowly revealed smiles.

"You know, junior brother, during this time, the two junior sisters in the Holy Academy chat group have mentioned you many times, but you haven't responded at all."

"Is that so?" Jiang Yuan smiled.

He casually took out the token of the Holy Academy.

In this token, there was still the power of a strike left by Du Gu Bo.

At that time, he didn't know what kind of concept this strike power was.

Now he understood that it was equivalent to the strike power of an ordinary Supreme, enough to make all the saints fear it.

At the same time, it was also a symbol of identity.

As a student of the Holy Academy, Du Gu Bo's strike power was enough to protect him at any time.

Even if something really happened, with Du Gu Bo's strength, even if they were thousands of miles apart, he could appear quickly.

This token was equivalent to a token of exemption from death.

Jiang Yuan sighed in his heart.

Then his divine sense merged into the token, and he immediately saw the information left behind.

[Yun Mu Yao (Tianhe Sacred Land Saintess)]: How boring! Junior brother hasn't come to see me for a long time! Hasn't come to see me for a long time!

[Ji Yue Yue (Princess of the Central State Ancient Country)]: Why hasn't junior brother come to chat! My father said that junior brother is amazing, he accomplished the feat of slaying a saint in the ancient Heavenly Court ruins that appeared before! Shocked.jpg

[Pan Hua (Langya Blessed Land Dao Child)]: Jiang Yuan junior brother, is this true?

[Ji Yue Yue (Princess of the Central State Ancient Country)]: No response at all, it seems junior brother is still busy! Boring.jpg

[Yun Mu Yao (Tianhe Sacred Land Saintess)]: How boring! Why doesn't junior brother come and say hi!

[Pan Hua (Langya Blessed Land Dao Child)]: I solemnly announce something to senior brothers and senior sisters!

[Ji Yue Yue (Princess of the Central State Ancient Country)]: What is it! So high-profile? Curious.jpg

[Yun Mu Yao (Tianhe Sacred Land Saintess)]: What good news does junior brother have?

[Pan Hua (Langya Blessed Land Dao Child)]: I have made it onto the Supreme List, it shouldn't be a disgrace to the reputation of our Holy Academy disciples!

[Ji Yue Yue (Princess of the Central State Ancient Country)]: Well done! Well done! Applause.jpg

[Yun Mu Yao (Tianhe Sacred Land Saintess)]: Although junior brother is not as good as junior junior brother, he's not bad either!

[Bei Heng (Bei Heng Sacred Land Lord)]: Congratulations to Pan Hua junior brother! (End of this chapter)
