"President, there's no problem with the dragon blade. That Universe Light Plate's aura is vast and ancient. It must be an ancient divine object without a doubt."
Fang Zhen explained the situation and finally said, "We can make this deal."
The president of the Devouring Heavens Association sat on his throne, his entire body shrouded in a layer of faint black qi. Through the black qi, others could only vaguely see a person inside, but they couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, old or young.
The president of the Devouring Heavens Association had a strange and powerful aura. He sat there like a black hole that could devour everything. Although he never revealed his true face, no one could impersonate him.
After Vice President Fang Quan finished speaking, the president did not comment. Separated by a layer of black qi, no one could see his expression and actions at all. They had no idea what he meant.
This kind of mystery made all the primordial spirit experts feel pressured.
After a moment of silence, the president's deep voice rang out, "This person paid such a huge price to exchange for the Longevity Immortal Art. Why?"
A killing divine weapon like the dragon blade was worth much more than the Eternal Immortal Art. After all, the Eternal Immortal Art could be passed down repeatedly, so there was no loss in passing it down to one more person.
However, there was only one dragon blade, and the increase in strength was also extremely huge. This was not something that the Eternal Immortal Art could compare to.
If he really wanted to cultivate a high level secret technique, he would be able to exchange the dragon blade for a technique that was not inferior to the Eternal Immortal Art.
Speaking of which, this matter was more or less suspicious.
Fang Quan could not guess Gao Zhengyang's thoughts, so he naturally could not answer carelessly.
Fang Zhen could not help but say, "Why don't we take down Gao Zhengyang and snatch his divine weapon?"
"I'm not stupid."
Old man Fang Quan rolled his eyes at Fang Zhen. How could he not be on guard when the other party took out such a precious divine weapon? How could it be that easy to snatch it by force?
Especially divine weapons like the dragon blade and the Universe Light Plate. Even if he killed Gao Zhengyang, he might not be able to snatch them away.
"If he wants the Eternal Immortal Art, give it to him."
The president said indifferently, "Complete the transaction, obtain the divine weapon, and then kill him."
No matter what Gao Zhengyang's goal was, as long as he was killed, he would not need to worry about the Eternal Immortal Art spreading.
"President, this person doesn't look like an ordinary person."
Fang Quan reminded, "I'm afraid ordinary methods won't be able to keep him here."
Fang Quan was a seasoned veteran. Just by meeting Gao Zhengyang once, he could tell that this person was unfathomable and definitely not someone who liked to fight.
"It's fine."
The leader said in a deep voice, "As long as he is in Eternal Splendor City, he can't leave."
Fang Quan's heart tightened. He knew that the Guild Master was willing to reveal his identity to keep Gao Zhengyang here.
Although the leader never revealed his true body, but in Eternal Splendor City, there were only a few such experts. The Devouring Heavens Association was unstoppable, but the Eternal Life Immortal Sect ignored them.
One could imagine that the Union Leader was definitely a high ranking member of the Immortal Life Sect. As for how tall it was and who it was, Fang Quan did not dare to think too much about it.
The less people knew about this secret, the better.
Beside him, Fang Zhen also lowered his head, refusing to look at the Guild Leader. To be able to get to this position, no one was stupid.
Now that the president had made his decision, things were much simpler.
Gao Zhengyang also did not leave his house, staying in his room every day.
Fang Zhen found an excuse to visit twice, but Gao Zhengyang was neither cold nor warm, neither close nor far. Fang Zhen could not get any information out of him, so he did not waste his energy.
On the morning of the third day, Gao Zhengyang was sitting quietly in his room, when he suddenly felt a trace of danger.
He pondered for a moment, then took out a talisman, wrote a short message, and sent it out.
The talisman transformed into a paper crane, flapped its wings and flew away, instantly disappearing without a trace.
Fang Zhen, who lived opposite Gao Zhengyang, discovered the paper crane. But the paper crane was too fast, and she could not follow it in time.
But looking at the direction the paper crane went, it seemed to be heading towards the east of Eternal Splendor City. The east of the city was a slum area. Only low level practitioners lived there, and it was especially chaotic.
With Gao Zhengyang's identity, who would he contact?
Three days was not enough for the Devouring Heavens Society to find out Gao Zhengyang's true identity.
This world was too vast. Gao Zhengyang showed off his power in the East Sea, and also formed a grudge with the Emei Sword Sect. Although it was not a secret, no one in this world cared.
Eternal Splendor City was far from the East Sea, and it would take a few months to get there. How could they have the time to inquire about Gao Zhengyang's identity?
Although the Devouring Heavens Society had also gathered information, they only found that Gao Zhengyang had come to Eternal Splendor City a month ago. Other than that, there was no other useful information.
It was not that the Devouring Heavens Society was incompetent, but there were tens of thousands of practitioners entering and exiting Eternal Splendor City every day. It was impossible to record everything, big or small. The Devouring Heavens Society did not have such a mature and complete intelligence system.
To be able to find out that Gao Zhengyang had come a month ago was already very efficient for the Devouring Heavens Society.
Fang Zhen did not care about the paper crane. Even if Gao Zhengyang had companions to support him, in Eternal Splendor City, no one could fight with the Devouring Heavens Society.
Under the guidance of the aura of God left by Gao Zhengyang, the paper crane flew straight to a dilapidated house in the east of the city, and landed on the face of the young man Xiaoye.
Xiaoye had just gotten up and was a little confused. Sensing that something was wrong, he grabbed the paper crane.
Unfolding the talisman, there were only four words on it: Leave Eternal Splendor quickly.
This message had no beginning or end, and there was no signature. Xiaoye was also a little puzzled. Just as he was about to study it, a flame flashed on the talisman, and it had already turned into smoke.
Xiaoye was stunned. Who would make such a joke with him so early in the morning?
On second thought, it did not seem like a joke. It was just that the talisman looked high-grade and expensive. The friends he knew, even if they wanted to joke, they did not have the financial resources.
Recalling the four words again, the words were like flying immortals, spirited and elegant, and there was a kind of freedom that ignored everything.
Since Xiaoye's cultivation had improved greatly, he had a deeper understanding of this subtle aura. His thoughts turned, and he thought of Gao Zhengyang.
Although he knew a lot of people, only this person was worthy of this handwriting. Only this person, would write a letter so concisely. Moreover, he did not care whether he listened or not.
Therefore, the four words were telling him what to do, as for why, how to deal with it, not a word was mentioned.
Xiaoye hesitated for a moment, but decided to do as he was told. An expert like Gao Zhengyang would not be so bored as to joke with him.
Having seen Gao Zhengyang's divine ability, Xiaoye was also very respectful of Gao Zhengyang.
In short, it was right to listen to this person.
Xiaoye was a smart person, he chose to believe in Gao Zhengyang, and no longer thought about why. Xiao Ye packed up her things, wrapped a small bag, and walked out quickly.
Eternal Splendor City was very big, even if he left from the nearest city gate, it would take him a long time to walk.
When Xiaoye came out of the place where he lived, he met a good friend: Xiao Hua.
This girl was wearing a gaudy floral skirt, chubby, and looked like a fool. But Xiaoye knew that this girl was actually very cunning, but very loyal.
"Where are you going?" Xiao Hua saw Xiaoye carrying a bag and was very curious.
With Xiaoye's broken home, this bag was probably enough to contain all of his possessions.
Xiaoye's heart moved, and he pulled Xiao Hua's hand and said, "I'm going out of the city to do something, help me."
"What are you doing, I still have something to do today, Old Wang asked me to help him wash the talisman book, and he gave me fifty low-grade spirit stones."
Xiao Hua was a little unwilling, this kind of easy work was not easy to get. She said, "Why don't you go tomorrow, I'll help you."
"It's urgent, I'm going out of the city today, just tell me if you want to help or not."
Xiaoye was a little unhappy, "Then I'll give you spirit stones too, okay?"
"You're so troublesome."
Xiao Hua could not refuse Xiaoye, and could only punch Xiaoye hard to vent his anger.
Xiaoye asked Xiao Hua to bring some food, and the two walked side by side to the outside of the city.
The two went out of the city from the east gate and walked to the Skyscraping Peak a hundred miles away. When they reached the peak, Xiao Hua was already tired and sweating. At this time, the sun only had a red edge, and the world was covered with a faint layer of twilight.
"Tell me, what are you doing here?" Xiao Hua looked around the top of the mountain, but couldn't find a reason to come here, and was so angry that he almost cried.
He was so tired that he was about to vomit blood, but here he was completely fine. Xiao Hua really wanted to punch Xiaoye to death.
Xiaoye sat on a big rock at the top of the mountain, looking at the faintly discernible Eternal Splendor City in the twilight, thinking that it'd better be safe. He grew up in Eternal Splendor City, and was very familiar with everything there, so he didn't want anything to happen to Eternal Splendor City.
Xiao Hua didn't get a response, so she became even angrier. Her two big chubby arms tightly strangled Xiaoye's neck, "If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll kill you!"
"Uh uh …"
Xiaoye stuck out his tongue, and could only beg for mercy, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."
"Hurry up and tell me." Xiao Hua relaxed a little, leaving some space for Xiaoye to speak.
Xiaoye took a few deep breaths and said, "It's an expert I know. He reminded me that Eternal Splendor City was in danger and told me to run. So I ran out with you. "
"Are you f * cking sick in the head!"
Xiao Hua was just playing with Xiaoye, but now she was really angry, "The Lord of Eternal Splendor City is Fang Hui, the Supreme Elder of the Eternal Life Immortal Sect. Eternal Splendor City is named after him. This is the Supreme Essence Fruit Divine Lord. With him in charge, will anything happen to Eternal Splendor City? What the f * ck … "
The more Xiao Hua scolded, the angrier she got. She grabbed Xiaoye, "If we leave now, we can still go home and sleep."
"Since we're out, let's wait for a day." Xiaoye also felt that what Xiao Hua said was reasonable, but he was still very convinced by Gao Zhengyang. Anyway, since they were out, there was no hurry to go back.
"You fool, you believe everything others say, your brain is eaten by dogs …"
Xiao Hua was a little tired after walking for a day. She sat down next to Xiaoye and couldn't help but talk.
Xiaoye could only listen, unable to refute. While Xiao Hua was talking happily, suddenly, divine light rose above Eternal Splendor City and went straight into the night sky.
Even the Skyscraper Peak, which was hundreds of miles away, was brightly illuminated.
Xiao Hua's eyes widened, "What's going on?"
Xiaoye was also shocked, something really happened. However, there didn't seem to be any big movements in Eternal Splendor City. It should have just activated the city protection array.
He couldn't help but say proudly, "See, something happened."
Xiao Hua's cultivation was not as good as Xiaoye's, and she hadn't seen the city protection array activate. She was extremely surprised and didn't have the mood to bicker with Xiaoye.
Not to mention that Xiao Hua hadn't seen the city protection array activate, most people in Eternal Splendor City hadn't seen the city protection array activate.
In a big city like Eternal Splendor City, there were tens of thousands of cultivators, and with the Eternal Life Immortal Sect, all demons and ghosts had long been killed.
As for the monsters in the wild, as long as they weren't crazy, they wouldn't have the guts to attack Eternal Splendor City.
This time, the Eternal Splendor City's array was activated by the leader of Swallowing Heavens Society in order to prevent accidents.
If the cultivators in Eternal Splendor City wanted to leave, they could only break the array. But this array had been established for tens of thousands of years, and was constantly reinforced. In a hurry, even an elemental fruit cultivator might not be able to break it.
The people in Eternal Splendor City also sensed the activation of the array, but not many people cared. The activation of this array was targeted at the strong, and had nothing to do with the low level cultivators.
No one would worry about the safety of Eternal Splendor City. What a joke, with the powerful strength of Eternal Splendor City, who could be presumptuous here.
Gao Zhengyang, who lived in the Spirit Origin Building, also sensed the change in the Eternal Splendor City's array.
He looked at the rising seven-colored divine light outside the window and said to Fang Quan, "What does this mean?"
Fang Quan's old face was bitter, "The activation of the city protection array is the Eternal Life Immortal Sect's matter, how would I know."
As he spoke, he handed over a palm-sized jade plate, which was densely engraved with countless golden runes.
He said, "This is the inheritance of the Eternal Life Immortal Art."
"Good stuff."
Gao Zhengyang reached out to take it. Fang Quan retracted his hand and was about to negotiate with Gao Zhengyang, but the jade plate had already fallen into Gao Zhengyang's hands.
Fang Quan's face changed, and the phantom of nine giant snake heads appeared behind his head. The nine snake heads were different in color and carried different powers.
Although the nine snake heads were not living creatures, they were external primordial spirits refined by Fang Quan from the Nine Headed Snake Demon. The nine snake heads each had their own abilities, and were extremely powerful.
Fang Quan had let Gao Zhengyang snatch the inheritance, and thought that Gao Zhengyang was going to make a move, so he immediately activated the nine snake primordial spirits.
"Don't panic, I have no intention of snatching it."
Gao Zhengyang extended his hand and summoned the dragon salyer and the Universe Light Plate out. With a flick of his finger, the dragon salyer turned into a ray of blade light and landed in Fang Quan's hands.
Fang Quan looked at the Universe Light Plate and said, "Why didn't you give it to me?"
"I have to inspect the goods."
Gao Zhengyang comforted Fang Quan: "In your territory, you guys are afraid that I will run away."
Fang Quan looked at the Universe Light Plate and could only restrain the thought of attacking. It was not wise to forcefully seize the divine artifact. If he made a move, it was very likely that he would shatter it.
In any case, the inheritance of the Eternal Life Immortal Art was real, so it was fine to let Gao Zhengyang take a look first.
However, there was a problem with this Eternal Life Immortal Art. There was a time limit to the inheritance. In other words, after receiving the inheritance for a day, the inheritance would completely disappear.
Unless, the other party could completely comprehend the mysteries of the Longevity Immortal Art in a single day. This was also to prevent accidents.
Even if Gao Zhengyang was lucky enough to escape, he would not be able to learn the Longevity Immortal Art. After all, there were all sorts of divine weapons and treasures in this world. No one knew what the other party would use, so it was always better to be cautious.
Gao Zhengyang held the jade plate, and with a move of his Spiritual Sense, he stimulated the inheritance inside.
Hundreds of thousands of golden runes flew out from the jade plate and entered Gao Zhengyang's sea of consciousness. Hundreds of thousands of golden runes formed the image of a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's appearance was not outstanding, but his body had the aura of eternal life.
When Gao Zhengyang saw this, he could not help but sigh in admiration. Just this aura of eternal life was enough to compare with his Dragon Emperor Immortal Body.
Of course, it was only on the level of the Grand Dao. In a real fight, the Eternal Life Immortal Art was far inferior to the Dragon Emperor Immortal Body.
If Gao Zhengyang wanted to call himself the number one Immortal Body in the universe, it might be a bit exaggerated. But he was firmly in the top three.
The Eternal Life Immortal Art was complex and mysterious, it was impossible to comprehend it in a short period of time.
Gao Zhengyang was not very proficient in incantations to begin with, and it was even more impossible to comprehend such a complex incantation system in one go.
He also noticed that as he comprehended and sensed it, the power of those tiny golden runes was also constantly weakening. The degree of this weakening was very subtle, and even an Essence Soul expert would not be able to discover the problem.
God Emperor Gao Zhengyang's cultivation was restricted, but his vision was still there. He immediately discovered the problem in the inheritance.
"So it's a time limit …"
Gao Zhengyang suddenly understood. The other party was indeed not honest and had left a back-up method to trick him.
However, he had the Universe Light Disc in his hands!
Gao Zhengyang was somewhat amused. The other party did not understand the changes of the Universe Light Disc, which was why he thought of such a method. Unfortunately, he encountered the Universe Light Disc that could control the process of energy, and this scheme was wasted.
He turned his finger slightly, and the Universe Light Disc spun. The energy in the area he was in instantly sped up by a thousand times.
Fang Quan was a dignified Essence Soul expert, but he also felt that something was wrong. However, the Universe Light Disc isolated an independent area, and he could not sense the changes in this area.
For Fang Quan, he only felt that Gao Zhengyang swayed slightly, and his aura changed slightly. As for what had changed, he could not tell.
Gao Zhengyang instantly sped up the energy circulation. To outsiders like Fang Quan, it was equivalent to him speeding up his own time.
In a short moment, a day had passed for Gao Zhengyang. The golden rune in his sea of consciousness was already dim and could shatter at any time.
Gao Zhengyang bent his finger and reversed the Universe Light Disc's inner wheel. The golden rune once again returned to its best state a day ago. Then, Gao Zhengyang reversed it again, and another day passed in an instant, comprehending the Eternal Celestial Art.
To Gao Zhengyang, his operation was very simple. He just needed to accelerate his cultivation, then reverse it back to the starting point, and then accelerate his cultivation again. This cycle was endless.
Activating the Universe Light Disc also required Essence Energy. Gao Zhengyang shamelessly left dozens of External Pills on the Universe Light Disc. This way, it worked effortlessly.
Opposite him, Fang Quan looked at Gao Zhengyang. He knew that something was wrong, but he did not discover what was wrong.
Comprehending the Eternal Celestial Art would definitely require a period of time. Fang Quan decided to wait for a while.
In a short period of time, Gao Zhengyang had already repeated the cycle a few thousand times.
The Eternal Celestial Art was very profound, but Gao Zhengyang was not a fool. Moreover, this inheritance contained the changes of God's Decree. It was enough for Gao Zhengyang to repeatedly comprehend it.
If it was any other Eternal Immortal Sect disciple, although they could also repeatedly comprehend it, there was a limit. It was impossible for them to be like Gao Zhengyang, comprehending God's Decree a few thousand times in the blink of an eye.
"The situation is not right …"
The Union Leader's gloomy spiritual consciousness resounded in Fang Quan's sea of consciousness, "Make your move."
Fang Quan did not feel the need to make a move, but he could not disobey the Union Leader's orders. The Nine Snake Primordial Spirit on his back fiercely pounced towards Gao Zhengyang.
The Universe Light Disc started to operate, and the area where Gao Zhengyang was located became independent. Although Fang Quan's Nine Snake Primordial Spirit was strong, it could not touch Gao Zhengyang.
Because the two were not on the same level.
If the Nine Snake Primordial Spirit hit the void, the entire room would be in a mess, but Gao Zhengyang was unharmed. After his attack failed, Fang Quan realized that the situation was very bad.
"You dare to play tricks in front of me!"
The Union Leader snorted coldly, and appeared in the air covered in black qi. He said to Gao Zhengyang, "Hand over the Universe Light Disc, and I will allow you to leave alive."
Gao Zhengyang glanced at the Union Leader, "We are trading fairly. You want to play tricks, but now that you are angry, you have no tolerance. Fang Hui! "
When the Union Leader heard Fang Hui's name, the black qi around him dissipated, revealing a green robed old man.
The old man's face was thin, his figure was tall, and his green robe was embroidered with a silver sun. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking very elegant.
Fang Quan had naturally seen this person before, Eternal Radiance City Lord, Eternal Life Immortal Sect's Grand Elder Fang Hui. He was shocked, knowing was one thing, and seeing it with his own eyes was another.
It seemed like this person was really angry today, and did not hide his true identity.
Fang Hui looked coldly at Gao Zhengyang, "You know who I am and still dare to come, you have guts."
"If you really make a move, I may not be fine, but your Eternal Radiance City will definitely be finished …"
Gao Zhengyang said very sincerely, "Don't be impulsive, listen to brother's advice: brother is someone you can't afford to offend."
