I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 827 The Heavenly Fishing Technique Revealed!

This was Gu Yuanqing's first time facing a major Buddhist or Taoist cultivation.

It's not that other realms don't have them; the Linglong Realm and the Spirit Realm also have Buddhist and Taoist traditions. It's just that the Linglong Realm doesn't have any experts, and the Tianchan Sect in the Spirit Realm is one of the nine righteous sects. It's just that Gu Yuanqing hasn't had the chance to understand it yet.

Buddhist and Taoist practices emphasize spiritual will, which aligns with the transmission methods of this realm.

This Zen Master of Wugou Zen Forest is clearly at the level of a Void Immortal. According to Buddhist and Taoist realms, he is at the level of an Arhat, possessing the power of indestructibility and the ability to subdue dragons and tigers.

Both of these individuals are at the top level of this realm. Gu Yuanqing is merely an avatar here. Even though his strength has improved since then, making this avatar far stronger than before, it is clearly difficult for him to fight two against one.

The main body's power immediately descended, and the clone's aura rapidly increased, instantly breaking through the limit of the Chaotic Undying. The power of the Tribulation Control Myriad Manifestations Sword Formation greatly increased, clashing with Xiao Wuyou's swordsmanship.

Compared to last time, Gu Yuanqing's swordsmanship has improved a lot, and he is not inferior in the slightest when facing Xiao Wuyou's power brought with the might of heaven and earth.

Even though his Supreme Emotionless Sword Dao was unparalleled, with every sword strike aimed directly at the weak points of the sword formation, he was still unable to break through Gu Yuanqing's sword momentum.

The illusory image of Beiquan Mountain spread out, keeping the Buddha's light out.

The Demon Refining and Immortal Ascension Tower appeared atop the illusory image of Beiquan Mountain, where a bright mirror hung high, reflecting both inside and outside.

The void shattered, repaired, and shattered again under the collision of the three forces. The aftershocks forced Liao Changyin to retreat again and again, making it impossible for him to get close.

He was furious at the obstruction from Wugou Chanlin and Taishang Wangqing Sect, and shocked by the power displayed by Gu Yuanqing.

He could clearly sense that the power of heaven and earth around him was controlled by Xiao Wuyou and Zen Master Huijue, and that Gu Yuanqing was actually fighting against two opponents without being at a disadvantage, relying entirely on his own strength.

"Is this otherworldly lineage really that powerful? To fight two Void Immortals with the Chaos Undying, if this gets out, it will absolutely shock people. It seems that what Sect Master Ling said before, that Gu Yuanqing once fought against the Demon King of the Boundless Realm and the Demon Lord's avatar, is indeed true."

He couldn't intervene in a battle of this level at all; in fact, the aftershocks would be enough to seriously injure him. The Shadowless Sect's lineage was not known for its combat prowess.

He retreated to a distance of five thousand miles, stood atop a mountain peak, and a cloud of mist spread out, obscuring his figure.

He took out a jade tablet, gently activated the magic array, and a wisp of divine soul flew out from it, transforming into a human figure, which was none other than Ling Yi.

Although cultivators in this realm cannot create clones like those in the Spirit Realm and the Exquisite Realm, they can still create a wisp of their spirit for someone of Ling Yi's level.

This clone also possesses combat power, but it needs to draw upon the power of heaven and earth. Moreover, it is like water without a source; the more it consumes, the weaker it becomes. Therefore, it spends most of its time in a deep sleep, saving it for the final moment when it will be of use.

After Ling Yi appeared, his gaze turned to the distance. The battle at the level of a Void Immortal was causing turmoil in the Great Dao, and it could be clearly sensed thousands of miles away.

He asked with some surprise, "Fellow Daoist Liao, what happened? It seems there are no Heavenly Demons on either side of the battle?"

A wisp of divine soul was not enough for him to sense this far, and he did not want to expend the power of this divine soul, but he still had a general understanding of the situation.

Liao Changyin said in a deep voice: "Gu Yuanqing, Xiao Wuyou of the Supreme Forgetfulness Sect, and Huijue Zen Master of the Immaculate Zen Forest."

Ling Yi was taken aback: "Xiao Wuyou and Zen Master Huijue? How did they end up fighting with Fellow Daoist Gu?"

Liao Changyin snorted coldly and said, "What else could it be? That old monk stopped Gu Yuanqing, saying that Gu Yuanqing's trip to the Demon Abyss would cause a great calamity. Then Xiao Wuyou also appeared and made a move. He was really domineering and unreasonable!"

These two sects are truly a joke! Once sacred lands, not only do they seek to remain aloof, but they also obstruct others from eliminating demons. They are unworthy of being called human cultivators!

Ling Yi frowned deeply: "A great calamity?"

"Yes, a great calamity. Sect Master Ling, what calamity could possibly compare to the demonic disaster?" Liao Changyin sneered.

Ling Yi stood with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance, and asked, "Who won and who lost this matter?"

Liao Changyin stared intently for a while: "It's a draw. This guy surnamed Gu is indeed powerful. He fought two Void Immortals alone. No wonder he dared to enter the Demon Realm alone. Fellow Daoist Ling, is he truly in the Chaotic Undying Realm?"

Ling Yi nodded slightly and said, "His realm is indeed Undying, but his strength... is indeed quite intriguing!"

Liao Changyin said, "Then what are we going to do? Even if Gu Yuanqing is indeed powerful, with two Void Immortals blocking our way, I'm afraid there won't be any follow-up to the Demon Abyss matter."

Ling Yi remained silent for a moment, as he had not expected such a thing to happen. After a while, he slowly said, "With the two of us, even if we intervene, there's nothing we can do."

"So we're just going to wait like this?" Liao Changyin said.

Ling Yi said, "There's no need to worry too much. This is the Demon Land, and the Demon Lord could arrive at any time. So they won't really fight to the death. They'll retreat after a slight victory or defeat. As for this trip, we're only holding onto a sliver of hope. Even if this Fellow Daoist Gu really gets to the Demon Abyss, it's unknown whether he can force out the true form of the Xuan You Demon Lord. Such matters are a matter of man proposes, God disposes. If it's impossible, then we'll deal with it another day."

Liao Changyin also fell silent for a while, opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing more.

Sometimes, strength is the only thing that matters. With two Void Immortals blocking the way, nothing you say will make a difference. Although there are arrangements to bring Ling Yi's true form here, it's all meaningless.

If Ling Yi were to come here, there would only be one possibility: he would be able to kill the Demon Lord. Otherwise, he would not risk going deep into the Demon Land. He could not afford to perish. His existence was related to the safety of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect and the Nine Heavens Domain!
Ling Yi withdrew his gaze and looked at Liao Changyin, saying, "Fellow Daoist Liao, act according to the situation, and be careful in everything you do."

Liao Changyin shook his head and sighed softly.

……

The Demon King of the Abyss stood thousands of miles away, watching the great war between humans with astonishment.

"Xiao Wuyou of the Supreme Forgetfulness Sect, the old monk of the Immaculate Zen Forest, and Gu Yuanqing—these three are actually fighting. That's interesting! But if this Gu fellow is really stopped and sent back, will it affect the master's plans?"

Thinking of this, he frowned slightly.

The fierce battle between Gu Yuanqing and the two Void Immortals continues.

“Benefactor Gu, turn back before it's too late! If you remain stubbornly unrepentant, this old monk will have no choice but to resort to demon-subduing methods.” Venerable Huijue’s appearance was solemn, and his tone was compassionate.

Gu Yuanqing's robes shimmered with celestial light, resisting the Buddhist chants, and he said calmly, "Old monk, if you have any skills, then please show them!"

"Amitabha!" Zen Master Huijue said no more. The ancient prayer beads in his hand suddenly flew up, each bead shining brightly, manifesting infinite mysteries in the void.

In an instant, a magnificent and immaculate Buddhist kingdom descended! Golden lotuses emerged, chanting thundered, and boundless compassionate power transformed into tangible shackles, wrapping around Gu Yuanqing from all directions, not only to imprison his body but also to subdue his spirit.

At the same time, the illusory image of the Book of Oblivion above Xiao Wuyou's head solidified completely, and the pages moved automatically without wind, making a rustling sound.

The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth resonated with this, pressing down on Gu Yuanqing. The Sword Dao of Forgetfulness became increasingly profound and unpredictable, with strict rules and regulations, just like the sword of Heaven constantly impacting the Sword Array of Tribulation Control.

"You'd better still have someone backing you, otherwise you'll perish here today!" Xiao Wuyou's voice was icy.

Gu Yuanqing's Myriad Manifestations Sword Formation was forced to shrink in range. Although the sword light was still sharp, it was like being trapped in a quagmire, only able to parry and unable to injure the enemy.

He originally intended to use Xiao Wuyou's sword to hone his swordsmanship, but Huijue's presence restrained him, preventing him from exerting his full strength. The Buddhist chanting constantly assaulted his mind, making it difficult for him to calmly comprehend the subtleties of swordsmanship.

"Very well." A hint of regret flashed in Gu Yuanqing's eyes. "Since you want to see him, then I'll let you see him."

As he spoke, he took a step back, and the surrounding space rippled like water as his figure disappeared into it, reappearing a thousand miles away.

Xiao Wuyou and Zen Master Huijue gave chase, but suddenly a hand emerged from the void, holding a large seal in its palm.

"go."

The seal of Beiquan Town was casually tossed aside, and upon seeing the wind, it grew taller and in an instant transformed into a majestic and imposing sacred mountain that covered an area of ​​thousands of miles!

All sorts of runes shone brightly, carrying boundless power, and pressed down on Xiao Wuyou and Zen Master Huijue who were chasing after them.

In an instant, space seemed to freeze, and time itself seemed to stand still.

Both Zen Master Huijue and Xiao Wuyou changed color at the same time, feeling that the space around them was harder than divine iron, and the circulation of their true essence and divine soul power became extremely sluggish!

"Namo Amitabha!"

The Venerable Huijue uttered a grand chant, and behind him, boundless Buddhist light soared into the sky, revealing a colossal phantom of a Buddha standing tall between heaven and earth.

The Buddha raised his palm, his five fingers like five pillars supporting the sky, forcefully lifting upwards, as if to unleash the divine power of the Buddha Kingdom in his hand to take the great seal into his grasp.

Xiao Wuyou opened a page of the Book of Oblivion above his head, and with a slash of his long sword, a sword light that seemed capable of severing all things and annihilating heaven and earth rose against the heavens and fell straight to the core of the mountain!
Rumble!
The Buddha's palm, the sword light, and the Northern Spring Divine Mountain collided fiercely!

At this moment, heaven and earth fell silent, and all things lost their color.

Terrifying energy ripples swept in all directions, tearing the void open with cracks thousands of miles long, disrupting the balance of earth, water, fire, and wind, as if returning to chaos.

The spreading power shattered the mountains and rivers of this demonic land, and all the monsters and demons in the mountains were reduced to ashes.

In the distance, the Demon King of the Boundless was also horrified. He had never seen Gu Yuanqing use this seal before. Even when he was at his peak, he could only flee in a sorry state when faced with this move.

The majestic mountain was momentarily halted by the combined power of two peak-level Void Immortals; however, this pause lasted only a moment.

The outstretched hand calmly formed a hand seal, and an even more vast power was remotely injected into the Beiquan Town World Seal.

Om-!
The sacred mountain roared, appearing even larger, with phantom images of pavilions, towers, rivers, lakes, seas, and all living things emerging.

The pupils of Zen Master Huijue and Xiao Wuyou shrank. If the previous power had only startled them, this power truly shocked them. It was not something a cultivator should possess.

The Buddha's shadow trembled violently, its golden light dimmed; the sword's light wailed, shattering inch by inch.

Faced with the North Spring Town Seal, which was suppressing the world with the power of a whole cave, Zen Master Huijue and Xiao Wuyou's Dao hearts pounded violently as a warning.

Having reached their level, they naturally understand that if they do not pay the price, they may truly perish here today!
"Diamond Prajna, Ninefold Nirvana!" The compassion on Zen Master Huijue's face vanished, and the mudra in his hand changed.

The perfect halo behind his head cracked inch by inch, transforming into the purest primordial Buddhist power that burned and poured into the enormous Buddha shadow behind him.

The Buddha's image solidified several times in an instant. Its originally lowered eyes slightly opened, as if the ancient Buddha himself had arrived. With a palm strike, the swastika Buddha seal in its palm spun upwards, and all the great Daos seemed to submit to it. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth instantly transformed into its power.

At the same time, Xiao Wuyou pointed his fingers like a sword and drew a line between his eyebrows. A drop of essence blood containing the origin flew out and landed on the illusory image of the Book of Oblivion above his head.

The Dao chapter that was turned instantly absorbed the drop of essence blood. The entire illusory image of the Book of Oblivion shrank and transformed into a sword light as thin as a cicada's wing, seemingly capable of severing all cause and effect, desire, and even the Great Dao, and met the descending divine mountain!
Both of these involve sacrificing one's cultivation level to unleash a life-or-death supernatural power, and their power has already surpassed the limits of ordinary illusory immortals!
Gu Yuanqing's Dao Heart also pounded, and he could feel that both moves were enough to damage Beiquan Zhenshi Seal and his own soul. However, he remained calm, having anticipated this scene, because Xiao Wuyou had used similar methods last time.

With a thought, the Beiquan Zhenshi Seal, which was pressing down with the force of a thunderbolt, vanished without a trace just moments before the two terrifying attacks were about to hit him, like a mirage!
These two forces followed the aura and headed towards Gu Yuanqing's clone, but the clone also disappeared instantly!

Two forces then followed the void rift into Beiquan Cave Heaven, and then nothing more happened.

"gone?"

"It seems he wasn't even harmed! This spatial manipulation and immense power are simply inconceivable!"

Seeing the powerful enemy retreat and the suffocating suppressive force disappear, the two exchanged a glance and felt relieved.

However, before he could exhale completely, he looked into the distance and saw a familiar figure strolling across the void, each step covering a thousand miles.

It was Gu Yuanqing!
His breathing was steady, his clothes fluttered, as if he had never experienced a major battle, and there was a faint hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.

In the previous battles, soul anchor points sufficient to execute the Heavenly Fishing Technique had already been set up on the periphery of the battlefield.

Xiao Wuyou's expression changed drastically, and he could no longer remain calm; Zen Master Huijue was also shaken by the Buddhist sentiments.

At this moment, the Shiyin of Beiquan Town reappeared, once again transforming into a majestic divine mountain that crashed down with the same power as before!
The two were both shocked and furious, and had no choice but to expend their own energy to unleash their supernatural powers to resist, but the result was still the same as before!

The next moment, Gu Yuanqing's figure reappeared in another direction!

This cycle repeated itself five times in a short period of time. Gu Yuanqing used the Heavenly Fishing Technique to repeatedly pull, appear, suppress, and disappear like a fish!
When Gu Yuanqing appeared for the sixth time, Huijue and Xiao Wuyou's auras had already fallen from their peak.

Cracks were appearing on the golden body of Zen Master Huijue; the illusory image of the Book of Oblivion above Xiao Wuyou's head was almost transparent, which were signs of damage to his soul and foundation of cultivation.
