The faint golden sword light left a sword mark that was thousands of miles long and dozens of miles wide on the surface of the sea. The sword mark was thousands of feet deep, and the sand and stones at the bottom of the sea could be vaguely seen.
The most amazing thing was that the sword mark seemed to have grown on the sea and remained there.
Looking down from the sky, the blue sea was divided into two parts. This strange scene also aroused the interest of all the cultivators in the East Sea.
After the Luo Fu Sword Sect was destroyed, countless cultivators in the East Sea came to observe this huge sword mark. After seeing this sword mark, all the cultivators fell silent.
The other party's sword had allowed them to witness the power of a true powerhouse.
In comparison, although the battle between Gao Zhengyang and Master Avidya was fierce, it was not as long and profound as this sword. The difference in strength between the two sides was obvious.
"This man is so powerful …"
Yun Taotao looked at the sword mark on the sea. Even though she was used to Gao Zhengyang's peerless supernatural powers, she couldn't help but be amazed.
Yun Taotao asked Gao Zhengyang, "Is this man more powerful than you?"
Gao Zhengyang said angrily, "If you don't talk about this, we can still be friends."
"I was wrong." Yun Taotao hurriedly apologized. She also felt that it was too embarrassing to ask this question.
The point was that this question was very simple. She didn't need to ask Gao Zhengyang at all.
Gao Zhengyang waved his horsetail whisk and said casually, "Let's go to the Longevity Sect."
Yun Taotao nodded repeatedly. During this time, she had been busy moving with the Yunguang Sect and the Heartsword Sect. She had been very nervous, for fear that the people of the Emei Sword Sect would catch up with them.
Now, she finally settled the Heartsword Sect and the Emei Sword Sect, so she was relieved. Although the sect was rebuilt in the depths of the sea, it was no different from the sea surface.
The light was a little dim and the smell was a little fishy, but everything else was good. The place was big enough, with sufficient Spiritual Qi and all kinds of mineral veins at the bottom of the sea.
In fact, it was really a blessed place for cultivation. However, when the two sects, the Heartsword Sect and the Yunguang Sect, gathered together, they inevitably had to deal with all kinds of trivial matters.
Yun Taotao had been coordinating and dealing with the problems for dozens of days, and her head was about to explode. Now that he could finally come out and relax, he was naturally in a good mood.
She just didn't understand what Gao Zhengyang was doing at the Longevity Sect.
"Why are we going to the Longevity Sect? It would be bad if the people from Emei were here. "
After Yun Taotao witnessed the power of the Emei elites, she became much more timid. She did not want to cause any more trouble.
"Mount Emei is a high-tier immortal sect. Why would they be so bored to stay in the Longevity Sect?"
Gao Zhengyang said nonchalantly, "The people from Emei must have left. Even if they didn't leave, you don't have to be afraid if you meet them. "
Yun Taotao's face was filled with doubt. Although she was extremely confident in Gao Zhengyang, she did not believe that Gao Zhengyang could defeat the powerful practitioner who had slain the East Sea with his sword.
Gao Zhengyang curled his lips and did not explain. The expert who had destroyed the Luo Fu Sword Sect was indeed powerful. Now, he was a little stronger than him. However, even if he were to encounter it head-on, he would still be able to escape.
Moreover, Gao Zhengyang's telepathy was extremely sensitive. Although the other party was a Level 13 expert, it would not be easy for him to ambush him.
Strictly speaking, although there were many Level 13 experts in this world, their power was restricted by the laws. It would not be difficult for the experts of the various worlds to destroy the East Sea with one strike.
However, leaving a mark on the East Sea with his sword was nothing.
According to Gao Zhengyang's estimation, the destructive power of the Level 13 experts in this world was not comparable to that of the Level 12 experts in the various worlds. That was about the same level as the Level 11 experts.
However, the laws in this world were exquisite and had countless more changes than the various worlds. In this sense, it was more interesting than the various worlds.
The greatest advantage of the Mixed Essence Realm was that there was no upper limit to one's power.
Gao Zhengyang had come for a higher level of power. This time, he decided to temporarily put aside cultivating his body and explore the essence of the Dharma spells in this world.
Along the way, he had learned the Seven Supreme Sword Art, Armor Refinement Technique, White Cloud Seven Techniques and so on. These mystic techniques were very simple. To be more specific, they were the use of techniques.
However, the Wind Thunder Sect, which was a small sect, had left behind a rather exquisite Wind Thunder mystic technique. It pointed to the Dao. However, the level of this Dharma spell was too low and there was no room for improvement.
The other techniques, such as the Carefree Joy Technique, were also the same problem.
That was until Gao Zhengyang learned the Nine Longevity Mantras. This Dharma spell was specialized in practical application, but it was profound and mysterious. It was the most profound mystic technique that Gao Zhengyang had ever seen.
Compared to Gao Zhengyang's Dragon Emperor Immortal Body, the Nine Longevity Mantras might not be as powerful, but their understanding of the Dao was far superior.
In the Mixed Essence Realm, the Nine Longevity Mantras were far superior to the Dragon Emperor Immortal Body.
The cultivators of the Longevity Sect probably did not understand the power of the Nine Longevity Mantras. This was also because their cultivation level was too low. They could not see the Dao in front of them.
This time, Gao Zhengyang went to the Longevity Sect to find the original copy of the Nine Longevity Mantras and study them.
As for whether the Longevity Sect was willing, Gao Zhengyang did not even consider it.
As the top sect of the East Sea, the Longevity Sect was not on an island but in Chang State.
Among the nineteen prefectures of the East Sea, Chang State was the largest. The Longevity Sect was built on the east side of Chang State. It faced the sea and was backed by the Longevity Mountain Range.
The nineteen prefectures of the East Sea were usually where the forces of the major sects intersected. Only Chang State was monopolized by the Longevity Sect. In the eyes of the disciples of Chang State, the Longevity Sect was the heavens, the supreme deity.
Gao Zhengyang brought Yun Taotao to the east coast of Chang State. From afar, he could see the palaces on the mountain range.
The Longevity Sect was unusually imposing. The palaces were spread all over the mountain range. Faint clouds shrouded the mountain range. From time to time, sword lights or flying ships would pass through. It indeed looked like a paradise.
Among the thousands of mountains, Gao Zhengyang immediately locked onto the Longevity Hall.
The Longevity Hall was made of gold. It looked dazzling and a little tacky, but the hall was grand enough. The gold gave the hall an eternal feeling.
Gao Zhengyang put away the Greenwood Flying Ship, activated the Heavenly Fiend Silk, and floated into the Longevity Hall.
The Longevity Great Hall was divided into nine levels. Each level had its own style. Even the direct disciples of the sect were not qualified to enter the hall after the fifth level.
As the Sect Leader, Zhou Mingyu certainly had to stay in the Eternal Hall, the ninth level of the Longevity Hall.
The Eternal Hall was also a forbidden area of the Longevity Sect. It was heavily guarded and heavily guarded.
Zhou Mingyu actually didn't like the Eternal Hall. He felt that the atmosphere inside was gloomy and depressing. However, the East Ocean was in troubled times. Of course, he hid well to avoid unexpected disasters.
For example, the Luo Fu Sword Sect clearly had a grudge against Gao Zhengyang. They were definitely not friends. However, the Emei Sect didn't care about that at all. They went up and destroyed the Luo Fu Sword Sect with a sword.
All the cultivators of the East Ocean felt sad. The Luo Fu Sword Sect was too unlucky. The large sect of the East Ocean, which had been passed down for thousands of years, turned into ashes just like that.
The key was that the Emei Sect was not reasonable at all. All the cultivators of the East Ocean didn't know what to do when they encountered such an arrogant sect.
In fact, Zhou Mingyu also knew that it was useless to hide in the Eternal Hall. If the Emei Sect really attacked, they would be destroyed with a sword. However, it was even more dangerous to show up, so it was better to hide. He thought that the Emei Sect, a dignified upper-level immortal sect, would not really be so unforgiving as to destroy all the sects in the East Ocean.
Fortunately, the Emei Sect's expert did leave and didn't do anything crazy.
In the past few days, Zhou Mingyu also felt much more at ease. He thought that he could go out to bask in the sun in a few days.
But he didn't expect that some troubles would grow legs and recognize the door.
"Sect Leader Zhou, we meet again."
Gao Zhengyang put away the Heavenly Demon Yarn and sat down directly opposite Zhou Mingyu. He looked very familiar, as if he didn't treat himself as an outsider.
"Senior, Senior Gao …"
When Zhou Mingyu saw Gao Zhengyang suddenly appear, his heart sank to the bottom. Instead of running away, he was still wandering around in the East Ocean. Did he think that the matter was not big enough?
The most terrifying thing was that Gao Zhengyang had run to the important place of the Longevity Sect. If the people of the Emei Sect knew about this, the Longevity Sect would not be able to defend themselves.
However, Gao Zhengyang had forced his way in. What could he do?
Zhou Mingyu knew very well that Gao Zhengyang wasn't a good person! He couldn't offend the Emei Sect, but he couldn't offend Gao Zhengyang either.
Zhou Mingyu could only force a smile. Even with his shrewdness and experience, he could only force a smile.
"Don't be excited. I'll be staying here for a few more days this time. You can be the host."
Gao Zhengyang smiled very warmly and even reminded him, "We're all old friends. There's no need to be so formal. Just arrange it as you like."
"How can that be? Since Senior has come, I must let Senior experience the special customs of our Longevity Sect …"
Zhou Mingyu didn't dare to call him Fellow Daoist. He forced himself to calm down and tried to be respectful and enthusiastic.
"There's really no need."
Gao Zhengyang said, "You don't need to be so polite. I'm just very interested in your Nine Longevity Curses. Just take out the secret technique and let me see it."
Zhou Mingyu was in a difficult position. The Nine Longevity Curses were the strongest divine incantation of the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture. The Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture was carved on the founder's golden statue.
This golden statue was the Longevity Sect's greatest secret. The Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture could be passed on to Gao Zhengyang, but the golden statue represented the sect's inheritance. How could he give it to Gao Zhengyang?
The problem was, could he refuse the current Gao Zhengyang?
Zhou Mingyu looked at the smiling Gao Zhengyang and felt more and more afraid. This was a peerless expert who could destroy a sect. He couldn't afford to offend him.
He hesitated and said helplessly, "Senior, the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture is carved on the founder's golden statue. It's fine if Senior takes a look, but the golden statue is the sect's divine item. I can't give it to Senior … "
"Don't worry, I won't force others to give me things."
Gao Zhengyang said generously, "You can keep the golden statue of your founder. I'll just take a look at the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture."
Zhou Mingyu looked at Yun Taotao unwillingly, wondering if she would follow along.
But Gao Zhengyang didn't care about his reminder at all. He could only swallow his bitterness and comfort himself, "Anyway, Yun Taotao won't make much of a difference. Besides, she won't be able to tell that I'm all big breasts and no brains …"
Under the pressure of Gao Zhengyang's gaze, Zhou Mingyu didn't dare to delay any longer. He stood up and silently prayed to the founder's statue in the middle of the hall.
After a while, the founder's golden statue in the middle of the hall shone with divine light and transformed into another form.
This founder's eyes and brows were the same as before. It was just that he was now sitting. Both his hands were on his knees and his mouth was slightly open, as if he was singing a long song.
The golden statue sat there, but there was a kind of transcendence, as if he was watching the flowing water calmly. There was an unfettered elegance, as if he was immortal.
Just by looking at the statue's posture, Gao Zhengyang was shocked. The golden statue's grace and aura were indeed mysterious. There was a trace of eternal aura that jumped out of the river of time.
Although the aura was extremely weak, it already had the aura of Dao. It was just like the sword that the Emei cultivator used to slash the East Sea. The aura was so strong, but it didn't grow.
Even if the sword intent could pierce through the sky, it was still too far away from this golden statue in terms of realm.
Gao Zhengyang was sure that this founder of the Longevity Sect was an amazing cultivator in the past. He didn't know how the legacy had fallen to this state.
He looked at Zhou Mingyu, who was smiling apologetically, and felt a little pity for this cultivator.
But this kind of thing couldn't be forced. The descendants being unfilial had nothing to do with the ancestors.
Gao Zhengyang looked at the founder's golden statue with rapt attention. He had a new understanding of the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture.
This time, he had completely grasped the true essence of the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture. It was a pity that this Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture was clearly incomplete.
No matter how amazing the Daoist aura of the founder's statue was, without the corresponding cultivation method, Gao Zhengyang couldn't reverse the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture's secret technique.
But the golden statue was constantly changing.
Gao Zhengyang quickly noticed the minute changes in the founder's statue. From its eyes to its gestures, any change represented a change in the overall Daoist aura.
The founder's statue was actually sitting still, but the minute changes in its gestures and eyes seemed endless.
Gao Zhengyang looked at the founder's statue and entered a deep state of enlightenment.
This made Zhou Mingyu very envious. He didn't have much enlightenment from the founder's statue. It was just that his heart was calm, and it was easy to circulate the Longevity Dao-Seeking Scripture.
Zhou Mingyu didn't know what Gao Zhengyang had comprehended, but just by looking at the mysterious changes in his aura, he knew that he had comprehended something good. What was hateful was that no matter what Gao Zhengyang comprehended, it had nothing to do with him.
What made Zhou Mingyu even more depressed was that the big-breasted and brainless Yun Taotao was actually staring at the founder's statue in a daze. The aura and essence force around her were boiling, and she was about to break through her cultivation barrier.
Indeed, in less than three days, Yun Taotao's body suddenly shone brightly, and the Golden Core in her consciousness shattered silently, turning into a thumb-sized golden person.
This person looked exactly like Yun Taotao, but its aura was deep and long, and it had a bit of the aura of the Longevity Patriarch's statue.
Yun Taotao was very surprised. She had just formed her Golden Core not long ago, and thought that she would have to wait for a few decades to reach Nascent Soul. She didn't expect to break through so easily.
The main reason was that the Longevity Patriarch's statue was amazing, and Gao Zhengyang was at the side.
Although Yun Taotao had some understanding of the Longevity Patriarch's statue, she didn't know why. It was all because Gao Zhengyang's aura resonated with her, bringing her to Nascent Soul.
Yun Taotao didn't know what state her Nascent Soul was in, and what was the foundation of its power.
Yun Taotao was completely muddle-headed, and was easily brought to Nascent Soul by Gao Zhengyang just like that.
Gao Zhengyang also gave Yun Taotao a push. This girl wasn't extremely smart, but she was talented. She could achieve something with just a little understanding.
Gao Zhengyang's understanding was a hundred times deeper than Yun Taotao's, and it was enough for him to break through the current Golden Core limit and reach Nascent Soul.
However, he was different from Yun Taotao. If he wanted to achieve Dao, he had to understand what the foundation of Dao was.
Although the Longevity Dao Seeking Sutra was amazing, it wasn't of a high level. It was easy for him to take a step forward, but if he made a mistake, it would be difficult to correct it.
There was no further explanation for the most crucial Nine Longevity Mantras.
Understanding the intent was one thing, but the actual implementation was another.
Gao Zhengyang sat under the Longevity Patriarch's statue for a hundred days, and he made thousands of deductions, but he still couldn't figure out the Longevity Dao Seeking Sutra's true form.
Gao Zhengyang heaved a sigh of relief and slowly opened his eyes.
Yun Taotao had been waiting impatiently for a long time, but she didn't dare to leave Gao Zhengyang's side, so she curled up at his feet and slept.
Reaching Nascent Soul was actually a step into another level of life. Both the body and the soul needed to adapt to the new power. Sleeping was the best way to adjust the power of the body and mind.
Gao Zhengyang looked at Zhou Mingyu, who was sitting opposite him. This Longevity Sect Master was very patient. Although he had been accompanying him for a hundred days, he didn't seem tired.
Sensing Gao Zhengyang's gaze, Zhou Mingyu immediately opened his eyes and asked tentatively, "Senior, you're awake?"
Gao Zhengyang smiled. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zhou. I've learned a lot."
"But …"
Zhou Mingyu's heart jumped when he heard the word 'but'. What else did he want?
Gao Zhengyang pondered for a moment, then asked, "Where does your Longevity Sect originate from?"
Zhou Mingyu didn't quite understand what Gao Zhengyang wanted to ask. He thought for a moment and said, "Our Longevity Sect is said to be a branch of the Supreme Sect. Half of the sects in the world claim to come from the Supreme Sect …"
Zhou Mingyu didn't really agree with the rumors of the sect's inheritance. It was too far-fetched and didn't have much meaning.
"You guys came from the Central Plains. Which sect are you from?"
Gao Zhengyang asked.
"Eternal Life Immortal Sect."
Zhou Mingyu said, "Among the Three Thousand Immortal Sects, the Eternal Life Immortal Sect is ranked lower. However, the Eternal Life Immortal Sect is ten thousand times stronger than my sect! "
He said it very solemnly, reminding Gao Zhengyang that the Eternal Life Immortal Sect wasn't something he could mess around with.
"So that's how it is."
Gao Zhengyang nodded his head. As long as there was a place with a background, it was fine. He stood up and with a flick of his whisk, wrapped Yun Taotao up as well. "I've troubled fellow daoist Zhou for the past few days. I'll take my leave now."
Zhou Mingyu felt as if he had been pardoned. He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. This scourge was about to leave. He even pretended to urge him to stay. "Senior, why don't you stay for a few more days? Although my Longevity Sect is small, we still have some special products …"
"No need."
Gao Zhengyang looked at Zhou Mingyu and said, "I've troubled you for the past few days. Consider this a token of my gratitude."
Zhou Mingyu wanted to be polite, but Gao Zhengyang casually tapped his forehead. All sorts of profundities regarding the Longevity Dao Seeking Scripture were transmitted into Zhou Mingyu's sea of consciousness.
Zhou Mingyu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. So the Longevity Dao Seeking Scripture had such subtle and profound changes. He stood there in a daze, completely immersed in the profound world of dao techniques, unable to extricate himself.
When Yun Taotao woke up from her coma, she saw countless mountains and rivers below her. That vast land of mountains and rivers was even more magnificent than the boundless sea.
"What is this place?" Yun Taotao asked curiously. She always felt that this place was more dignified than the land of the East Sea. There was a clear difference in the aura of elemental energy.
"This can be considered the Central Plains." Gao Zhengyang casually replied.
"Ah, what are we doing in the Central Plains? Looking for Mount Emei to fight?
Yun Taotao's small face was deathly pale. She had become a Nascent Soul cultivator, but she understood more and more how powerful the sword that split the East Sea was.
"Not Mount Emei, we're going to the Immortal Sect." Gao Zhengyang corrected.
"Why are we going there?" Yun Taotao was confused. Why did the Immortal Sect suddenly appear? It sounded quite powerful.
"Why? Snatch a secret manual, or steal it … "
"Ah!?"
