Cultivating Immortality in Two Realms

Chapter 309 Blessed Land of the East Sea

"I see……"

Yao Chen remained expressionless, but Master Tan Feng's heart sank.

The Jade Sea Flood Dragon King was the outside help that Grand Master Yaochen had called, but unexpectedly, he was "persuaded to turn back" halfway through!

"How could they have miscalculated like this?"

Grandmaster Yaochen made some calculations with his hands, and inexplicably had a bad feeling.

But when he thought of the blessed land of Donghai that he had longed for for many years and had been planning for a long time, his resolve turned into determination.

He looked at Master Guangmu: "Master Guangmu of the Taiyi Xuanmen... I have long heard of your great name. You are a renowned senior in the East. What, do you intend to make things difficult for us demons today?"

As he spoke, Master Yaochen also secretly transmitted his voice to the Great Dharma King Kumarajiva.

Sangji, accompanied by the Black Tara who subdues demons, stood behind his own Dharma King, seemingly bowing his head and chanting scriptures.

But everything he saw fell into Fang Qing's eyes, who was still practicing Qi Refining.

"I'm hiding in the Qi Refining Path, protected by the cave heavens and suppressed by the Dao-Generating Pearl... I can even look directly at a Golden Core True Monarch without any problem, and I can still make a lot of money off him..."

Fang Qing observed Yao Chen's actions and calculated with his hands: "Even when the Taihuang Heaven opened in the past, it never attracted a great figure like Guang Mu, who possessed the Four Laws and perfected supernatural powers... Could it be that there is a great one hidden within the Eastern Sea Blessed Land?"

"Whatever the problem, it's none of my business."

……

"Hehe... I only have some grudges with the Outer Sea Dragon Palace. As for the Secret Treasure and Moyun Cliff, since you, Yaochen, started this scheme, you naturally have a share in it... Just be careful to accept the consequences."

Master Guangmu simply uttered a few words, yet he separated the demon from the monster, and at the end, it seemed to carry a hint of warning.

"Thank you for the reminder, senior."

Master Yaochen was certain in his heart.

True Person Zifu can sit at the table anywhere. As a Grand True Person of the Golden Core Immortal Sect, even Guangmu has to give him face.

After all... he has a Golden Core True Monarch behind him!

And what does Guangmu have?

The reason why Tianjiaomen is called a "gate" is because it lacks a True Lord to preside over it!

Even if he could kill a Grandmaster, would he dare to?

Not only can't they, they even want a share of the profits—that's the reality!

"Your kindness and generosity will surely bring you great fortune in the future."

Kumarajiva was also overjoyed and put his hands together in prayer.

"Hehe... I still can't accept the blessings of a tantric monk, so I'll pass."

Master Guangmu smiled and approached Master Leshui: "Did you open the Eastern Sea Blessed Land this time for the technique of the fourth divine power?"

"good."

Master Le Shui sighed: "Although the lineage of my Canghai Sect has never been severed, the sect has experienced several great calamities, and quite a few of its inheritances have been lost to the outside world... The one who built the 'East Sea Blessed Land' was a perfected Purple Mansion cultivator, belonging to the [Zhen Shui] lineage. It is said that he possessed all four methods and died after attaining the Dao... Since he was able to attain the Dao, his supernatural powers must have been perfect, and the combination of them would not be wrong."

"The Daoist arts of the Zhen River are rarely seen, let alone one involving such a major event as the 'Zhen River Removal of the Wall,' whose supernatural powers are unpredictable..."

Master Guangmu comforted him, saying, "If one can obtain its inheritance, and with the diligent study of many high-ranking cultivators in the sect, it is not impossible to create new techniques and supernatural abilities..."

The new law also reflects changes and progress...

In fact, whether in the Demon Path or the Taiyi Xuanmen, new foundational cultivation methods appear almost every few decades.

As for whether one can cultivate supernatural powers, that depends entirely on fate...

However, there are also many Dao Foundation forces and Qi-accepting families... who are specifically there to be guinea pigs for this cultivation method.

By using the lives of generation after generation to test and learn, and then pushing the foundational cultivation methods to the level of supernatural powers... perhaps we can make up for what is lacking in a certain lineage!

"Thank you for your kind words, senior..."

Master Le Shui seemed somewhat distracted, and secretly transmitted his thoughts: "One tree cannot make a forest. Why is Senior Guangmu helping me so much?"

"Naturally, there will be times when the Canghai Sect is of use to me in my future endeavors..."

Master Guangmu looked over, his eyes filled with gentle warmth.

"The Canghai Sect... I understand."

In the blink of an eye, the two great masters reached an agreement.

……

An island in the open sea.

Shen Guanfu plunged his longsword into the chest of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

As the cultivator lay dying, a glimmer of clarity suddenly appeared in his blood-red eyes, and blood dribbled from the corner of his mouth: "You and I... are both going to die..."

Before the words were even finished, the flesh and blood had already materialized, turning into a flowing spring. Only a skeleton remained, soaking in the spring water, appearing even more crystal clear and jade-like.

"A fortuitous encounter in the Purple Mansion... My own fortuitous encounter in the Purple Mansion!"

"I am determined to achieve the Purple Mansion realm!"

Shen Guanfu picked up a map from the stream and matched it with the map in his hand.

In an instant, the map merged together, becoming complete and intact.

The numerous lines on it twisted and intersected... and the location of the treasure also became complete.

"this……"

Upon seeing the landmark above, Shen Guanfu was immediately taken aback: "At this very moment, in this very place? What a coincidence!"

"No! This map is the key. Wherever I am, that blessed land will guide me... This is the truth!"

Swish!

A beam of light from the [Zhenshui] descended, and Shen Guanfu vanished without a trace...

"A blessed land in the East China Sea!"

Swish!

Within the vast void, figures emerged one after another.

Yao Chen's fingers continued to calculate, a smile appearing on his face: "The Eastern Sea Blessed Land has remained hidden for a long time, but last time, that Water Virtue Grand Master killed several Purple Mansion cultivators, causing turmoil in the Great Void... it has finally revealed itself!"

The life of a Purple Mansion True Person is worth more than the blood sacrifice of hundreds of thousands or even millions of mortals!

The life of a Purple Mansion True Person is worth more than the blood sacrifice of hundreds of thousands or even millions of mortals!

Therefore, after Fang Qing killed those Purple Mansion cultivators from the Nine Heavens Fire Palace, the Outer Sea has been turbulent for years, with treasures appearing from time to time, truly benefiting a group of rogue cultivators...

But these sacrifices and blood essence... were cleverly guided by Yao Chen and ultimately used to open this "Eastern Sea Blessed Land".

"Venerable One, this person is quite determined; he seems suitable for my secret collection..."

Sangji put his hands together and smiled as he spoke.

Although the destiny of a disciple is diminished after opening a blessed land, if they can find benefits within the blessed land, it may even be enough to make up for their loss of life. They are still excellent choices for disciples.

Moreover, it is common knowledge that esoteric Buddhism values ​​life and destiny more than aptitude.

"He's just a dying cultivator; the Dharma King can do with him as he sees fit."

Grandmaster Yaochen snorted coldly, gazing at the Blessed Land of the East Sea with a hint of anticipation: "Blessed Land of the East Sea..."

……

Splash!

As far as the eye can see, there is a vast blue sea.

Shen Guanfu hovered in mid-air, sensing the abundant spiritual energy: "This is... a blessed land?"

In that instant, he finally came to his senses, feeling cold sweat pouring down his forehead. Thinking of the countless life-threatening dangers he had faced over the past two years, traversing Hehuan and Nanwu, and venturing into the outer sea... he couldn't help but feel even more remorseful: "What foolish thing have I done?"

The next moment, he saw other lights appearing in other directions as well, and a thought struck him: "It seems that I am not the only one who has entered the blessed land... Oh well, I'll try my luck first."

Shen Guanfu rode the escape light and soon came to see a large island.

There are quite a few buildings on the island, including a Taoist temple.

But at this moment, there were no living people in the Taoist temple or even on the island, only rows of white skeletons.

Swish!

As the light faded, Shen Guanfu gazed at the fallen skeleton, a flash of emerald light in his eyes: "So many mortals and cultivators... it seems they were all killed at the same time."

Traces of the Zhen River still remain on the earth.

Shen Guanfu closed his eyes slightly, and it was as if he saw a reversed Milky Way, or an overturned sea, crashing down and sweeping over the entire island.

On the island, whether living or cultivators, the moment they came into contact with the water, their flesh and blood were completely dissolved, leaving only bare white bones...

"How ruthless!"

"What kind of technique or blood elixir is this being refined? Why does it require so much blood sacrifice?"

Shen Guanfu trembled inwardly as he bypassed several corpses whose white bones, as clear as jade and obviously belonging to the Dao Foundation stage like himself, and arrived at the Daoist temple.

The Taoist temple was dilapidated, the incense burner was overturned, the plaque was crooked, and it was covered with a layer of sea salt.

call!

A gentle breeze blew by, causing the white salt to scatter and reveal the original, ancient characters: "Viewing the Sea".

"There's a Golden Elixir Immortal Sect in Southern Wu called the Canghai Sect. I wonder what its connection is with this Taoist temple?"

He murmured something and entered the Taoist temple, where he saw a jade platform with countless golden scrolls displayed on it, radiating extraordinary brilliance.

With just a glance, a message immediately appeared in Shen Guanfu's mind: "Our temple's Daoist canon contains three hundred volumes of Daoist treatises, the foundations of Daoism, one thousand eight hundred and fifty-two volumes of breathing exercises, and four volumes of the Purple Mansion, awaiting a destined person..."

"I...I am the one destined for this."

He stepped forward, trying to grab the scroll.

But a jade-like hand stepped ahead of him, picked up a golden book, and slowly opened it to examine it. A pair of phoenix eyes showed some joy: "Not bad, not bad... Although this 'Minor Sea Confinement Technique' is just a breathing exercise, you can vaguely see the shadow of our sect's secret techniques."

"You? Who are you?"

Shen Guanfu was greatly alarmed.

"I am the Venerable Joyful Water... As for you, your destiny lies in the Secret Treasury."

Master Le Shui laughed.

"A hidden treasure?"

Shen Guanfu was jolted awake. He was from Sichuan, how could he not know the terror of the secret realm? Immediately, he felt extremely unwilling.

But the next moment, he saw a gaunt-looking monk beckoning to him: "Where are my disciples of the White Bone Sect?"

Shen Guanfu immediately knelt down, bowed before Sangji, and kowtowed sincerely, saying, "Disciple pays respects to the Dharma King... I humbly request the Dharma King to accept me as a disciple."

"Haha, of course."

Sangji reached out and stroked Shen Guanfu's head, causing all of Shen Guanfu's hair to break off, leaving only the length of a finger joint.

Those who survive to the end among all those who raise Gu (poisonous insects) can be considered half a Gu King.

Even if their fate is severely diminished and they may never be able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, it's still quite good to have them under your command as consumables for battles.

After all, the White Bone Path still has many matters to attend to, and cannot allow the Duzi and Dumu to condescend to intervene...

Moreover... there's also this 'Jun Tian Pot,' which I can conveniently retrieve and study.

Fang Qing looked at all this through Sangji's gaze, and felt somewhat disappointed:

Is this the Daoist Canon of the Zhen River?

"It's not the [Ji River]...and it seems this grotto doesn't have anything particularly good..."

Just then, his gaze fell upon the 'Jun Tian Pot,' and a thought instantly struck him: 'Something's not right…'
