When tired, I lie on the white clouds. When awake, I swim in the Milky Way. When thirsty, drink fine wine; when hungry, eat panacea. When they were excited, they would gather three to five friends to chat, drink, and play chess.
He sat under the Bodhi tree, quietly comprehending Spiritual Opportunity. Three thousand years was spring and three thousand years was summer. Suddenly, the four seasons changed. When he opened his eyes again, it was already a new era in the world.
Longevity roared at the sun and moon, roamed the universe freely. This was a true immortal!
Ever since Jade Heart Fox had read about immortals in the sect's ancient records, ascending to immortality had become her only goal in life. She had never thought that this goal would be achieved so quickly and in such a special way.
What surprised her even more was that after ascending to become an immortal, everything was completely different from what she had expected. There was no freedom in the Immortal World. There was no peace and quiet. There were heavy responsibilities that could not be avoided. Not only was it tiring, but it was also dangerous.
She might as well live a comfortable life in the Milky Way Sword Sect. Now that she thought about it, she vaguely understood. Why were the experts of the major sects willing to struggle at death's door in the lower realm rather than take the risk of ascending?
He had thought that they were just afraid of death. Now, it seemed that this group of old fellows knew that the Immortal World was not a good place to live. That was why they refused to come up no matter what, preferring to hole up in the Lower Realms.
Now that Jade Heart Fox thought about it, she felt very disdainful of this group of old fellows. But more than that, he was annoyed. If she knew that the Immortal World was such a scam, she wouldn't have put in so much effort to cultivate.
At this time, Jade Heart Fox could only comfort herself. At least she still had a master. Although it was also a pit. But at this time, that was a solid backing!
Thinking of this, Jade Heart Fox smiled at Gao Zhengyang, a gentle and virtuous smile.
Gao Zhengyang was a little disgusted by her smile. He said in a bad mood, "Don't act like a demon. You look scary."
Jade Heart Fox blinked her eyes innocently. "Master, you must save me this time."
Bearer Light Hall was responsible for guarding the Sixteen Southwestern Islands of the Immortal World, and Spirit Firmament Island was the most dangerous of them all. Half of the immortals who died in Bearer Light Hall were from Spirit Firmament Island.
Jade Heart Fox did not know about this at first, but before she left, she received a jade slip. It recorded in detail the situation of Spirit Cloud Island. After Jade Heart Fox saw it, she felt terrible.
She suspected that Yun Guang was doing this on purpose. There was no enmity between the two of them, so why would Yun Guang mess with her? The real reason was probably that he couldn't stand Gao Zhengyang's overbearing and arrogant manner.
Furthermore, if Gao Zhengyang had not offended the Golden Armor General Zi Mei, they would not have been sent directly to the Cloudy Pulp Hall, nor would they have gone to Spirit Cloud Island.
In the end, Gao Zhengyang was the main culprit. Jade Heart Fox did not dare to complain. In fact, she did not even dare to think too much about it. She could only hug onto Gao Zhengyang's thigh tightly, hoping that they could get through this safely.
"What are you afraid of? Spirit Cloud Island isn't hell."
Gao Zhengyang didn't mind. "With your cultivation, as long as you're careful, there won't be any problems."
The laws in the Immortal World were different from the Mortal World. The Spiritual Qi in the Immortal World was denser, and the upper limit of one's strength was higher. However, most of the Divine Soldier Heavenly Generals here were from the immortal world. Although they were strong, most of them were born with it. The remaining half was bestowed by experts.
There were not many immortals like Jade Heart Fox who had ascended to become immortals in the immortal world. Immortals who had passed the test of heavenly tribulations would have limitless achievements after entering the immortal world.
Although Gao Zhengyang did not understand the immortal world, he could see that the ascended immortals were important combat power. They could be said to be the fresh blood of the immortal world and the backbone of its power.
From this perspective, the rotation of Bearer Light Hall was both a responsibility and a kind of experience. In the process, some immortals would naturally be lost.
But immortals who could not even pass the test, whether they were unlucky or incompetent, were all trash.
Gao Zhengyang could understand the thoughts of those in power and did not feel that there was anything wrong with this arrangement.
Of course, Jade Heart Fox was the victim and certainly would not think so. She was a little disappointed that she did not get Gao Zhengyang's promise. But she was also a smart person and would not pester Gao Zhengyang endlessly over such a small matter.
She sighed and gently touched the jade pendant hanging at her waist. The jade pendant was engraved with a cloud dragon. Under the stimulation of her magic power, it flew out of the jade pendant.
The cloud dragon was more than a hundred feet long and looked like it was pieced together from clouds. But the cloud dragon's huge dragon eyes were cold and seemed to be quite spiritual. The cloud dragon's body was hollow and was divided into a bedroom, a quiet room, and a living room. It was quite spacious.
This cloud dragon's real name was Cloud Dragon Warship and it had extremely strong combat power. The space inside its body could also be used to store various items. When not in use, it could also be stored in the jade pendant. It was extremely convenient.
The cloud dragon warship was quite spiritual. After Jade Heart Fox activated it, her spirit established a wonderful connection with it. It felt like raising an obedient pet.
Jade Heart Fox gave the cloud dragon some instructions and it automatically flew into the sky, flying towards Spirit Cloud Island.
Sitting in the living room, Jade Heart Fox could still clearly see the situation outside. If necessary, she could also merge with the cloud dragon's spirit and receive all of its senses at the same time.
The cloud dragon warship flew extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it broke through the layers of formations and rushed out of Bearer Light Hall. Then, it flew in the southwest direction.
At first, Jade Heart Fox looked at the scenery along the way with great interest, but the immortal world was actually extremely empty. Although there were all kinds of mountains and rivers, most of them were hidden in the thick clouds.
They were faintly discernible and could not be seen clearly. Moreover, along the way, she only occasionally saw a few spirit birds. But she did not see any immortals.
After watching for a few days, Jade Heart Fox felt a little tired. She took out the jade scroll of Spirit Cloud Island and studied it.
The content of the jade scroll was extremely rich. There were all kinds of introductions to Spirit Cloud Island. There were also some cultivation techniques. Although they were all low-level techniques, they were real immortal techniques. They were quite different from the techniques that Jade Heart Fox cultivated.
Jade Heart Fox originally felt that it was very difficult, but she casually practiced the Spirit Gathering Technique and succeeded. She performed it in disbelief. Sure enough, the spiritual energy in the air quickly gathered at her fingertips and quickly condensed into a pale white ball of light.
The only use of this fingernail-sized ball of light was that it could emit light. Of course, if one did not mind, they could directly swallow it. It could increase spiritual energy a little. The effect was similar to a person drinking a mouthful of water.
The Spirit Gathering Technique was not very useful, but it was indispensable. Every place where an immortal lived would definitely prepare a huge Spirit Gathering Formation to provide pure spiritual energy. The Spirit Gathering Technique was the foundation of the Spirit Gathering Formation.
Jade Heart Fox tried to cultivate other immortal techniques. It did not take long for her to complete the 72 Earth Fiend Techniques. As for the 36 Heaven Dipper Techniques, they were extremely complicated.
Jade Heart Fox tried to cultivate one of them, but she could not grasp the gist of it. She hesitated for a moment and found Gao Zhengyang to ask for advice.
Gao Zhengyang took a look and was also a little surprised. The jade scroll recorded 108 immortal techniques. They all looked very simple. These simple immortal techniques could be said to be the foundation of the immortal techniques in the immortal world.
Many of the contents touched Gao Zhengyang's heart. He was not in a hurry to explain to Jade Heart Fox. He was constantly deducing in the Heart Buddha Realm, trying to extract the essence of the immortal techniques from them.
Gao Zhengyang originally thought that this would not be difficult, but the 108 immortal techniques could actually be combined at will. Moreover, different combinations would lead to different effects.
Gao Zhengyang had never had much talent in spells. He had not made much progress even after deducing for a long time. He could only call out Moon Breeze, and the two of them deduced together in the Heart Buddha Realm.
Moon Breeze's knowledge was extraordinary, and they slowly found the foundation of the immortal techniques' transformations. This also made Gao Zhengyang overjoyed.
He did not want to waste time in the immortal world. It was just that this was his first time here, and he was not used to everything. He could not find his way home even if he wanted to leave. He could only endure for now and wait for an opportunity.
He did not expect that a small entry-level immortal technique would be so amazing. It allowed him to see some changes in the immortal world's power source.
Strictly speaking, these 108 immortal techniques were not complicated. They could be said to be the simplest immortal techniques in the immortal world. Therefore, Jade Heart Fox could easily master the 72 Earth Fiend Techniques in one go.
However, basic entry-level immortal techniques did not mean that these immortal techniques were not profound.
They were like the knowledge that elementary school students learned in textbooks. They were all penetrating knowledge that had been thoroughly tempered. It was the foundation of all knowledge.
Gao Zhengyang was unfamiliar with the immortal world because his own power system was very different from that of the immortal world. In the Qi Refinement world, he could still rely on his powerful Divine Sense and mind to do whatever he wanted.
But in the immortal world, it was not his turn to show off.
Gao Zhengyang's entry-level immortal techniques had mastered the immortal world's basic power. It was very beneficial to compare it with his own situation. Although it was not enough for him to fully recover his power, at least it would not be a problem to pretend to be an immortal.
"Master, we have arrived at Spirit Cloud Island."
Jade Heart Fox's voice seemed to come from beyond the heavens, interrupting Gao Zhengyang's deductions. His consciousness emerged from the depths of his sea of consciousness, and he regained control of his body and all external senses.
The first thing that came into view was Jade Heart Fox's small face with a complicated expression. Gao Zhengyang's gaze went past Jade Heart Fox, and he looked outside.
Through the cloud dragon's transparent body, he could see the deep starry sky outside. One by one, the stars shone brightly, as if they were within reach.
Below the starry sky floated a huge ring-shaped mountain. It was iron-gray in color, and there were no plants or living creatures. There was a huge ring-shaped hole on the mountain peak, and it was bottomless.
Under the illumination of the starlight, the ring-shaped mountain appeared cold and deathly still, without any signs of life.
"This is Spirit Cloud Island?" Gao Zhengyang was also a little surprised by the appearance of Spirit Cloud Island. This big guy that was like a dormant volcano, without any Spirit Qi, was actually called Spirit Cloud Island!
"Yes," Jade Heart Fox answered with absolute certainty. Although she had never been here before, the cloud dragon and the markings on the map clearly told her that this was Spirit Cloud Island.
In truth, Jade Heart Fox was even more disappointed than Gao Zhengyang. Although she had already read various introductions about Spirit Cloud Island, she still felt very uncomfortable when she saw the appearance of Spirit Cloud Island with her own eyes.
It was not that Spirit Cloud Island was ugly, but that Spirit Cloud Island exuded a deathly stifling aura.
The cloud dragon flew above the entrance of the ring-shaped mountain peak, and without hesitation, it flew straight down.
Jade Heart Fox felt her vision go black, and she could not see anything. There seemed to be no Spirit Qi in the surroundings, making her, who was used to an environment overflowing with Spirit Qi, very uncomfortable.
It was like suddenly entering water, and she could not breathe. If it were an ordinary person, they would have suffocated to death.
Although Jade Heart Fox was not that bad, she still felt flustered and suffocated, so irritated that she wanted to scratch the wall.
After flying like this for a while, Jade Heart Fox finally saw a dense starlight. When she flew closer, she discovered that it was a large building cut into the side of the mountain.
The gray building style was simple and unadorned, completely lacking the magnificent style of the Immortal World.
The cloud dragon steadily landed on a huge platform that protruded out. Jade Heart Fox and Gao Zhengyang came out of the cloud dragon, and Jade Heart Fox waved her hand to put away the cloud dragon.
At this time, the two heavy stone doors in front of the platform also slowly opened.
A man wearing heavy black armor slowly walked out. The armor on his body seemed to be extremely heavy. Not only was his walking speed very slow, but every step he took caused the platform to tremble.
The other party rumbled all the way over, the sound like thousands of horses galloping over.
The man walked in front of Jade Heart Fox and gave Gao Zhengyang a deep look, but quickly withdrew his gaze. He said to Jade Heart Fox, "You're the new one on duty, right? Follow me."
The man's appearance was upright, but his expression was cold. It was as if he did not welcome Jade Heart Fox.
Jade Heart Fox's heart was even more stifled, but she did not dare to flare up. She could only follow behind the man. But she also did not want to speak. In any case, the situation was already so bad, and the other party was like this, so there was no point in talking.
After the man brought Gao Zhengyang and Jade Heart Fox into the cave, he softly chanted an incantation, and the two stone doors behind them automatically closed.
The inside of the cave was actually very clean, and the mountain walls were cut very smoothly, giving off a smooth luster like marble. Every six feet, there was a ball of bright spiritual light that illuminated the tunnel.
But there was no life, and everything looked gloomy and white, like an underground tomb.
The man brought Jade Heart Fox and Gao Zhengyang through the long tunnel, arriving at a large hall at the end. There were stone tables and stone benches in the hall. Although the space was spacious, it appeared unusually simple.
There were three people sitting in the hall, all of them wearing heavy armor. Among the three, only the round-faced woman sitting in the middle had a smile on her face. Her eyes were shining, and she seemed rather excited.
The remaining two men both had indifferent expressions. Only when their gazes swept over Gao Zhengyang did they reveal some surprise.
The round-faced woman sitting in the middle spoke first, "I am Yu Li. Welcome to Divine Cloud Island. From now on, everyone is one of us. Quickly sit … "
As Yu Li spoke, she gestured for Jade Heart Fox to sit down.
Jade Heart Fox was also a little happy. Finally, there was a normal person. She bowed slightly and said, "I am Jade Heart Fox. This is my first time here, and I don't know anything. Please take care of me, senior."
"Speaking of which, you all have the surname Yu. You really are a family."
Yu Li seemed to be quite fond of Jade Heart Fox, and her smile became more affectionate.
She took the initiative to introduce them to Jade Heart Fox. "This is Northern Yuan, and this is Jiang Tong. The one who brought you here is Xi Jun …"
Northern Yuan was as thin as a skeleton, and his face was covered with crisscrossing scars. He looked like a devil that had escaped from hell. Jiang Tong's figure was huge. Sitting there, he was like a small mountain, three feet taller than the others. And he was just sitting there.
Among the three men, only Xi Jun, who led the way, looked normal. When Northern Yuan and Jiang Tong were introduced, they only glanced at Jade Heart Fox. Only Jiang Tong nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.
Although Jade Heart Fox didn't like the attitude of these men, her small face was full of smiles, looking polite and courteous.
After Yu Li finished her introduction, Jade Heart Fox asked curiously, "Where are the others on Divine Cloud Island?"
Yu Li smiled bitterly. "All the shifts are here."
"Ah …" Jade Heart Fox was very surprised. Such a big Divine Cloud Island only had four shifts.
Yu Li explained, "Originally, there were more than ten people, but over the past few hundred years, more than half died."
Speaking of her dead companions, Yu Li's tone was indifferent, without any sadness or sighing. That kind of calmness made Jade Heart Fox's heart even colder.
She muttered in her heart, if they stayed here for a hundred years, even if they didn't die, they would probably become like them. How terrifying!
Yu Li seemed to realize that her tone was a bit inappropriate. She sighed and said, "Divine Cloud Island is deep in the Asura World entrance. These Asuras only know how to kill. We've been fighting with them for too long, we've almost lost our normal emotions. "
Jade Heart Fox laughed awkwardly. Even though she was clever, she didn't know how to respond.
"Fortunately, you're here. At least you can make this place more lively."
Yu Li waved her hand and said very generously, "You've just arrived and don't know anything. Rest for a few days and adapt. There's no rush to be on duty … "
"Thank you, Senior." Jade Heart Fox hurriedly expressed her thanks.
Yu Li waved her hand. "Everyone is on duty, don't call me Senior. I'm the on-duty commander, you can call me Commander. "
"Yes, Commander." Jade Heart Fox sighed inwardly. This woman spoke warmly, but in reality, she wasn't polite at all.
Compared to her, the other three men might be easier to deal with.
Just as Jade Heart Fox was pondering, the mountain-like Jiang Tong spoke.
"This is your artifact spirit?" Jiang Tong looked at Gao Zhengyang and asked.
Jade Heart Fox wanted to explain, but Jiang Tong said, "This artifact spirit isn't bad, I'll take it."
Jiang Tong's voice was very loud and even a bit sharp. At the same time, his voice was deep and resounding. His words were like a clap of thunder, causing Jade Heart Fox's mind to buzz, and even his soul to tremble along with it.
Jade Heart Fox was extremely angry. Let alone the fact that Gao Zhengyang wasn't an artifact spirit, even if he really was hers, she couldn't let someone else snatch him away.
There were actually people in the Immortal World who bullied the weak, and so directly!
Jade Heart Fox wasn't in a hurry to refuse. She first looked at Yu Li, wanting to see what she had to say.
Yu Li frowned slightly and said to Jiang Tong, "You're going a bit too far. It's fine if you want an artifact spirit, but you should at least give her some compensation. "
Jiang Tong thought for a moment and said impatiently, "Fine, I'll give you face. I'll take her shift for three days."
Jade Heart Fox was shocked. Her crescent eyes almost turned into full moons. She needed to be on duty for a hundred years, but the other party actually said he would take her shift for three days, and with such confidence. He sounded like he was showing mercy!
Her little face couldn't help but change, but then she smiled. Since the other party wanted to find trouble, and even found Gao Zhengyang, he was simply courting death.
Jade Heart Fox didn't know how capable Gao Zhengyang was, but for some reason, she had an indescribable confidence in Gao Zhengyang. She believed that Gao Zhengyang would definitely be able to take care of these people.
