The river at the foot of Crouching Dragon Mountain was more than five kilometers wide and hundreds of meters deep. Who knew how many giant fish and water monsters were hidden in the depths of the river? Even the boldest fishermen and sailors wouldn't dare to dive into the depths of the river.
In late autumn, the river was cold and turbulent. No one went into the water.
Gao Zhengyang had just come out of the pavilion when he quietly left the Dragon-Subduing Courtyard and dived into the depths of the river.
In fact, when he left, he sensed that Yuan Tong was beside him, and he also sensed traces of Jiang Zhenggong.
It wasn't strange at all that Yuan Tong and Jiang Zhenggong were in cahoots.
The fact that the Jiujiang Gang had secretly helped Yuan Tong kidnap young girls proved that the two sides had an extremely close working relationship. It would be strange if Yuan Tong and Jiang Zhenggong weren't in cahoots.
Although Jiang Zhenggong's words and actions were the style of a hero, he had no bottom line. How could Gao Zhengyang trust such a person?
However, the Guardian Deity's aura was constantly changing in the Divine Palace, so Gao Zhengyang had no time to care about these trivial matters.
After leaving the Dragon-Subduing Courtyard, Gao Zhengyang quietly dived into the depths of the river.
He had cultivated in the water for a long time when he was in the Tielin Sect. He felt an unusual affinity for the water.
The rapid river could also conceal the fluctuations of vitality. It was even more impossible to encounter others. It was a good place to cultivate.
The river was hundreds of meters deep, and the water was extremely muddy. Gao Zhengyang chose a boulder overgrown with aquatic plants and sat cross-legged.
With a slight movement of his divine sense, the Ten Dharma Robe emitted a faint white light that expelled the sewage and sand, opening up a clean space within a radius of three feet.
The Ten Dharma Robe was an inherited divine artifact of the Buddhist Sect. After the Blood God Flag had forcibly broken through the restriction, Gao Zhengyang could already easily control it.
Opening up a small independent space was nothing more than a small test.
Under the protection of the Ten Dharma Robe, Gao Zhengyang calmed his mind and sensed the Guardian Deity image in the Divine Palace.
It had three faces and six arms, holding six magic tools. This Guardian Deity Dharma Idol was exactly the same as the Guardian Deity Mantra. In terms of aura, it was even more mysterious and profound.
The Guardian Deity Mantra was a secret technique that was passed down through the imprint of one's divine sense. As long as the spiritual fluctuations were compatible, the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol could be activated.
This Guardian Deity Dharma Idol wasn't a projection of the Guardian Deity. It was just a strange phenomenon created by the convergence of the Dharma Incantation's power and vital energy.
After Gao Zhengyang activated the Guardian Deity Dharma Form, he used his insight into the essence of power to immediately see through the Guardian Deity Dharma Form's essence.
Roundness, on the other hand, was because his power level was too low, his knowledge was limited, and his mind was unstable. That was why he lost his composure when he saw the Wisdom King's Dharma Idol.
An expert like Dustless had a firm will and would not be confused by the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol.
When the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol had entered the Divine Palace, Gao Zhengyang hadn't paid much attention. That was because it was just a wisp of divine sense that contained the cultivation method of the Guardian Deity Mantra.
According to his understanding, an expert would use their divine sense to leave behind an image to guide their descendants in cultivating the Guardian Deity Mantra. There were no other effects or functions.
However, the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol that had entered his Divine Palace was a little different. The aura exuded by the Dharma Idol seemed to have a special connection with a certain place.
Sensing this abnormal change, Gao Zhengyang couldn't be bothered with Yuan Tong and the others. He hurriedly dove into the depths of the river to study the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol's secrets.
Gao Zhengyang's Divine Palace was vast and spacious. The silvery lake water was clear and calm, without any ripples. In the middle of the lake water, there was a majestic platinum mountain peak, tall and unshakable. Above it was a vast expanse of jade-green that stretched as far as the eye could see.
After his martial soul had entered the peak of Tier 8, Gao Zhengyang's Divine Palace had undergone a huge transformation.
The silvery lake water was actually a projection of his Origin Energy. The platinum mountain peak was a projection of his tyrannical physical body. The boundless jade-green sky was a manifestation of Gao Zhengyang's fist intent and divine sense.
The Vajra Dragon Emperor martial soul was wrapped in pure golden Dragon Emperor Armor. It wielded the Dragon Emperor Halberd and had a long Blood God Flag draped behind it. It stood proudly at the peak of the platinum mountain peak.
In the void opposite the Vajra Dragon Emperor martial soul, the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol stood on the nine lotuses. Its three faces had strange expressions as it looked at the Vajra Dragon Emperor martial soul.
The Guardian Deity Dharma Idol's body faintly revealed a condescending and scrutinizing aura.
It was this almost human emotional reaction that made Gao Zhengyang feel that something was wrong. How could the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol have emotions! How could it have intelligence!
Tianyue had fought two Stage Nine experts in a row, and Gao Zhengyang's martial soul had also suffered heavy injuries.
Although the Vajra Dragon Emperor martial soul was protected by the Dragon Emperor Armor, Dragon Emperor Halberd, Blood God Flag, and Ten Dharma Clothes, it still revealed a sense of weakness and exhaustion.
The serious injury to the martial soul was not something that could be healed in a short time. That was why Gao Zhengyang came to the Dragon Subduing Courtyard, hoping to use the Dragon Eye Bodhi Mirror to cultivate his martial soul.
Unexpectedly, Wuchen was so generous that he actually offered the Guardian Deity Incantation with both hands. That enthusiastic look made Gao Zhengyang feel a little embarrassed if he didn't practice it.
The Guardian Deity Incantation was a secret technique of the True Word Sect. According to the grade, it was definitely a high-grade Ninth Tier secret technique.
The fundamental secret technique of the True Word Sect was the Great Sun Vajra Buddha Mantra, but the Guardian Deity Incantation was the most powerful incantation of the Buddhist sect. In terms of power, it could be ranked in the top three among the many martial arts and incantations of the Buddhist sect.
There were thousands of disciples in the True Word Sect, but there were only a few who were truly qualified to practice the Guardian Deity Incantation.
Although it was easy for Gao Zhengyang to obtain it, he wouldn't underestimate the Guardian Deity Incantation because of it.
Gao Zhengyang also attached great importance to this peerless secret technique that had undergone a mutation.
Gao Zhengyang observed in the Divine Palace for a long time, but he didn't notice any unusual movements from the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol. However, due to his keen spiritual perception, he felt that there was something wrong with this Guardian Deity Dharma Idol.
He didn't want to continue like this, so he tried to urge his divine sense to make contact.
Unexpectedly, the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol didn't show any abnormalities. Under the urging of his divine sense, it immediately broke down into pieces of golden characters and images, displaying the secret cultivation technique of the Guardian Deity Incantation one by one.
A wisp of bloody light hidden inside the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol also flew out.
That wisp of bloody light carried the powerful aura of a dragon, but it also had an unusual evil.
Unfortunately, it had encountered the Blood God Flag, which specialized in restraining this kind of special changes in Qi, blood, and the soul. Before the wisp of bloody light could unleash its power, it was absorbed by the Blood God Flag.
Without the bloody light causing trouble, the secret technique contained in the Guardian Deity Dharma Idol was absorbed by the Martial Soul.
This kind of divine sense transmission was more like a computer download from Gao Zhengyang's previous life. The cultivation method, steps, and profoundness of the Guardian Deity Incantation were clearly imprinted on Gao Zhengyang's Martial Soul.
This kind of learning method was simple, direct, and efficient.
Gao Zhengyang almost immediately grasped the Guardian Deity Incantation and understood the subtle changes within. It was as if he had been cultivating the Guardian Deity Incantation for decades.
The Guardian Deity Incantation was divided into ten stages. Gao Zhengyang estimated that he had already cultivated it to the sixth stage.
This also meant that the Guardian Deity Incantation he was using now had the power of a sixth-grade spell.
This kind of cultivation speed was a little frightening.
Gao Zhengyang was exceptionally talented in martial arts, but he wasn't talented in spells. He hadn't learned any spells when he had been with Yue Qingxue. He had learned a few simple incantations like the Great Compassion Mantra and the Guanyin Mantra when he had been with Huiming.
However, he hadn't practiced these low-grade incantations very well. He had mastered a superior-grade ninth-grade incantation in an instant. This wasn't normal.
As Gao Zhengyang was lost in thought, he suddenly sensed a crack open in the boundless void.
A ray of golden light fell from the void and directly entered his Divine Palace.
Gao Zhengyang was shocked. What is this?
