I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

He reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword, with ripples like water waves in front of him, directly shifting through the void to within three feet of Songy Wenxing, and slashed out with his sword.

“Zheng!”

With this sword, both Gu Yuan’s mana and the anomaly moved simultaneously, the Golden Bone Thunder Aperture resounded together, and lightning and golden fire surged along the blade, the dazzling light forcing even Golden Core cultivators to close their eyes, or they would be blinded.

This was the ultimate sword strike, driven by mana exceeding tens of thousands to wield the Tier Four Sword Pill.

The human body Dharma Embryo of the Nine Flames Demon King perished under this sword.

Although that was because the other methods of the Nine Flames Demon King’s human body Dharma Embryo were all destroyed by Gu Yuan, plus he employed the anomaly of transforming into a Dragon Body.

Yet, the power of this sword was still terrifying to the extreme.

Songy Wenxing’s expression changed drastically.

Above the cloud, Zai Hantie’s face was also rigid.

He originally thought that his Demonic Array Seal truly blocked that dazzling sword light.

But now it seemed that he was completely overthinking.

One sword to break ten thousand arts, this was truly one sword to break ten thousand arts!

“Zeng!”

The void twisted, Songy Wenxing could no longer distinguish whether Gu Yuan held a sword, or thunder, or a Great Sun in his hand, in his heart and spirit, there was only the most dazzling stabbing pain and fear rushing towards him.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

A series of Dharma Seals inside him quickly rotated out, transforming into black clouds, demon banners, miasma shields, among others, numbering in the dozens.

Yet wherever the sword light passed, everything shattered like iron blades cutting through paper, separating in an instant.

“Bang!”

Unstoppable.

Songy Wenxing’s head fell to the ground in an instant, soul divided, everything was “slashed open.”

This was an absolutely sharp and powerful sword, and it was fast to the extreme.

Songy Wenxing had no power to resist at all.

His aura was suddenly extinguished.

Yet there was no panic on Master Hong Lie’s face…although not panicked, it was extremely solemn.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, from within Songy Wenxing’s “dead” body, a rich blood light surged out.

The blood light was so strong that it seemed to dye even the Celestial Vault red, a terrifying demonic qi roared out and rose fiercely.

Subsequently, Songy Wenxing’s “dead” body suddenly swelled, muscles twisted, his skin turned blood red, and on his originally severed neck, the flesh writhed and two hairless heads suddenly coagulated and emerged.

Their eyes were scarlet, mouths with fangs, looking extremely ferocious.

Moreover, Songy Wenxing’s original head, which had rolled to the ground, suddenly opened its eyes, staring fixedly at Gu Yuan, his eyes filled with endless killing intent.

In an instant, Songy Wenxing transformed into a strange existence with three heads, like a zombie.

“Screech!”

All three of Songy Wenxing’s heads let out a sharp cry, the mana fluctuation on his body surged threefold in an instant, his skin as hard as iron, shining with an indestructible luster.

Moreover, in Songy Wenxing’s original left eye’s double pupil, there was a strange blood light, followed by a blood-colored divine light, carrying endless malice, shooting out from the double pupils, fiercely aiming at the center of Gu Yuan’s forehead.

Within that blood zombie, an immense force erupted instantly, nails grew crazily like sharp swords, stabbing towards Gu Yuan’s neck.

Three Demons Blood Corpse Seal.

This seal needed countless corpses, flesh, and souls as materials to nurture three demon heads, which ordinarily resided within a cultivator without abnormalities.

But once the cultivator encountered an overwhelming enemy and “died,” these three demon heads would revive, occupy the cultivator’s body, turning it into a blood corpse.

This blood corpse’s mana triples in an instant, the physical body comparable to a Tier Four Spiritual Treasure, and can augment the cultivator’s physical body divine power, allowing for a significant outburst in strength, helping the cultivator to counter-kill the enemy cultivator.

If able to counter-kill the enemy cultivator, the three demons devour the enemy cultivator’s flesh and blood, allowing the cultivator to “resurrect,” return the body to the cultivator, and once again settle inside, awaiting the next summon.

If unable to counter-kill the enemy cultivator, the three demons entirely occupy the cultivator’s body, becoming a new blood corpse.

However, this method had huge drawbacks, improved by successive Pavilion Masters of the Thousand Scripture Pavilion.

As long as blood food can be prepared in advance, and the cultivator pays the price of “Root Bone,” even if the enemy cultivator is not slain, after an incense time, the three demons will return the body to the cultivator.

At this moment, with Gu Yuan’s sword light blazing, Songy Wenxing was beheaded in one strike, his body’s Three Demons Blood Corpse Seal erupted instantly, the three demons screamed, bringing with them a bloody ferocity and indestructible body, charging at Gu Yuan.

“Just mindless demons after all…”

Bloody ferocity soaring, physical body indestructible, yet Gu Yuan merely shook his head.

Just three times the mana, so what?

With eyes that glimmer fiercely, so what?

“Zheng Zheng Zheng!”

He extended a finger, and suddenly, countless sword lights surged from his fingertip, dazzling and boundless, like golden dragons coiling around, transforming into a sword qi cage, imprisoning the Three Demons Blood Corpse within.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

The Three Demons Blood Corpse roared angrily, continuously shattering the sword light, attempting to break the cage’s hold, but the sword light was endless, one sword not extinguished before another arrived, gradually forming a golden cocoon that tightly bound the Three Demons Blood Corpse.

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

Within the cocoon, the sound of golden iron clashing was endless, with countless blood sprays, which were instantly ground away by the whirling sword light’s tail flames.

Had the Three Demons Blood Corpse faced others, with its ceaseless blood mana and indestructible physical body, fearless even in death, it would’ve been terrifying.

But in a clash of mana, when had Gu Yuan ever feared anyone else?

His mana surged, sword lights ceaselessly emerged and vanished, boundless and endless, aided by the Tier Four Sword Pill’s power, although not beheading the Three Demons Blood Corpse in one stroke, the storm-like assault was indeed the killing method of a Sword Cultivator!

A thousand sword lights can grind you to death!

Gu Yuan’s cultivation had reached a point where sword light followed his heart, moving freely.

At that moment, the vast Cloud Platform was silent, only the sound of clashing iron was unending.

The body of the Three Demons Blood Corpse was being ground away layer by layer by the boundless sword light, yet as the blood mana surged, the physical body kept regenerating.

But Gu Yuan, with one hand behind, had mana flowing like a deep sea, limitless, and the sword light at his fingertips not only didn’t dissipate, but grew more abundant, seemingly able to emerge and vanish until the end of time.

The Cloud Platform was silent.

Above the Thousand Scripture Pavilion’s cloud cluster, a Golden Core Cultivator sighed deeply, closing their eyes in unwillingness.

At this moment, this prolonged magical combat, compared to one swift throat-sealing stroke, was more despairing.

Like being pressed in a coffin with a ton of boulders outside, the oxygen inside thinning gradually, one can only wait for death with eyes wide open.

Suffocation, fear!

Enough to instantly counter-kill a common late-stage Golden Core Three Demons Blood Corpse, now was like a mere human in a coffin, awaiting only ruin.

That sword light’s vastness and sharpness were beyond words.

Master Hong Lie’s face turned grim, yet didn’t call for an end.

Until the Spirit Mansion True Person beside him sighed deeply, then the sword light enveloping the Three Demons Blood Corpse was subdued by a heavy mana surpassing realm.

“This battle, our Thousand Scripture Pavilion has lost!”

“Accept the bet and abide by the contract!”

The Spirit Mansion True Person shook his head, sighing endlessly.

“Thank you for allowing me to win!”

Master Yunyang laughed heartily upon hearing, joy in his voice.

After long planning, today finally ushered in the harvest!

Most importantly, someone to follow in succession!

Someone to follow in succession!

Gu Yuan said little, only sheathed his Sword Pill, gracefully bowed, then returned to the side of the Sword Fox Immortal.

“Senior Sister, how was it?”

He lightly raised his brows, facing his senior sister’s pink eyes, smilingly asked.

In this battle, he was full of confidence all along, even when piercing arrays, even against three, he wasn’t fazed.

This is not arrogance.

But confidence gained from slaying the Nine Flames Demon King’s human body Dharma Embryo.

Perhaps someone could defeat him in the Golden Core Realm, yet such people are few, and the Thousand Scripture Pavilion should not be qualified.

But due to his senior sister’s advice, he was cautious, otherwise, the victory would come faster.

The Sword Fox Immortal rolled her eyes at Gu Yuan.

She knew he was seeking praise, yet at this moment, in such a position between the two, how could she speak?

Does the senior sister’s dignity still matter?

Slightly shaking her head, she could only say: “Do not be complacent, strive in cultivation, achieving the Daoist Embryo is the true path.”

But after a slight hesitation, she softly added: “Though today your demeanor was indeed exceptional, I too am pleased.”
