I attained immortality through meditation in the Great Qian Dynasty.

The cyan sword light pierced through the seven-inch mark of the giant cyan-scaled python!

The giant python's massive body suddenly stiffened.

"roar--!"

The roar shook the valley, and the giant python twisted its body.

Life is slipping away at a rapid pace.

Just one strike!

A powerful late-stage Foundation Establishment demon beast was severely injured and on the verge of death!

A figure appeared amidst the smoke and dust.

Zhao Zian held a long sword, dressed in white.

"Who goes there? How dare you meddle in the affairs of our Ten Thousand Beasts Sect?"

The remaining man in black robes was both shocked and furious.

He didn't see how the other party made their move at all.

All that is known is that this young man who suddenly appeared possesses unfathomable cultivation!

"The ones who will kill you."

Zhao Zian's words were concise.

"Arrogant!"

The man in black robes roared.

"Junior brother, you and Black Wind go and kill him! I'll deal with this old Taoist!"

He judged that Zhao Zian was not easy to deal with and made a decision immediately.

I plan to get my hands on the "Pure Yang Elixir Classic" first.

"good!"

Another man in black robes responded, and together with the winged wolf Black Wind, they flanked Zhao Zi'an from the left and right.

The severely damaged blue-scaled python also experienced a brief resurgence of energy at this moment.

Dragging its broken body, it opened its blood-red maw and spewed out a cloud of green poisonous mist, enveloping Zhao Zian!

Zhao Zian flicked his wrist, and the sword light surged, heading towards the black-robed man and the giant blue-scaled python.

"Jingle bells!"

The bone shield summoned by the black-robed man was shattered the moment it came into contact with the sword shadow!

He was horrified and retreated, his hands quickly forming hand seals, creating a wall of energy in front of him.

But that cyan sword shadow carried a masculine aura, which was the nemesis of evil cultivators like him!

The air wall melted away rapidly.

"Damn it! What kind of technique is this?"

The man in the black robe was startled.

On the other side, the poisonous mist spewed by the giant blue-scaled python was no match for Zhao Zian's spiritual power.

The poisonous fog evaporated completely before it even got close.

The remaining force of the sword light brushed against the giant python's wound.

"Pfft!"

This time, the giant python's head was severed.

In a single encounter, one was dead and the other wounded!

Everyone was stunned.

Even the black-robed man who was about to kill Xuan Yangzi stopped moving.

At this moment, Xuan Yangzi had already resolved to die.

But the moment Zhao Zian made his move, his old eyes widened in disbelief!

That spiritual power...

This is the "Secret of Longevity"!

It is the most orthodox and fundamental law of Chunyang Palace!

Chunyang Palace... still has successors!

A surge of ecstasy welled up inside me.

Xuan Yangzi wept uncontrollably.

He absolutely cannot die until he has found out everything!

We need to buy time for this young fellow disciple!

"Demon! Behold my Pure Yang Righteous Law!"

Xuan Yangzi slapped his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood onto the whisk on the ground.

"Buzz—!"

The whisk held up three thousand strands of dust, each one standing upright.

They forced the man in black robes and the two-winged wolf to retreat.

"You old geezer, you dare to resist!"

The man in black robes urged the demonic beasts to defend themselves.

Xuan Yangzi let out a bitter laugh, ignoring everything else.

He poured all the last remaining spiritual energy in his body into the whisk.

It forms a light barrier, temporarily isolating itself from the enemy.

Meanwhile, atop the mountain peak.

The little white fox's spiritual power spread out.

It enveloped the two-winged wolves below and the man in black robes.

The man in the black robe suddenly felt a blur before his eyes.

He discovered that a golden divine figure phantom had appeared behind Zhao Zian opposite him!

The majestic aura emanating from that divine being, as it opened and closed its eyes, made even his very soul tremble!

"Golden... Golden Core Dharma Form?! No! Impossible!"

He was so frightened that his Daoist mind became unstable.

And the huge, two-winged wolf roared.

In its eyes, the flesh and blood of the giant python that had been cut off on the ground reassembled.

It transformed into an even more ferocious monster, staring at him.

The beast's ferocity was unleashed, and it began to tear at and roar at the air.

This situation stunned its owner.

"Black Wind! Are you insane?!"

At this moment, the battle situation shifted due to this illusion.

Zhao Zian immediately saw his opportunity.

"die!"

The sword light rose again, a streak of cyan sword light aimed directly at the throat of the man in black robes!

puff!

The man in black robes looked down at the blue sword tip protruding from his throat.

He opened his mouth, then his body went limp and he collapsed heavily to the ground, never to rise again.

One sword, and he's dead!

My companion just died like that?

The injured man in black robes glanced at his companion's demonic beast, Black Wind, out of the corner of his eye.

It continued to roar and bite wildly at the ground.

Illusion!

He immediately understood the problem.

"boom!"

With a loud explosion, Xuan Yangzi's light barrier could no longer hold and turned into specks of light that dissipated in the air.

The man in black slapped his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Blood Escape Technique!"

A cloud of blood mist spewed from his mouth, enveloping his entire body.

The next second, the blood mist suddenly dissipated, turning into a streak of blood light that raced wildly into the distance!

"Trying to leave?"

Zhao Zian instinctively wanted to give chase.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xuan Yangzi not far away.

The old Taoist priest was as thin as gold paper; he was about to die.

Hunt down the enemy, or uncover the secrets of Chunyang Palace?

Zhao Zian made a decision instantly.

He flashed and arrived beside Xuan Yangzi.

"Taoist Master, you..."

"Good...good boy..."

Xuan Yangzi grabbed Zhao Zian's arm.

He stared at Zhao Zi'an, or more precisely, he felt the inexhaustible spiritual power within Zhao Zi'an's body.

"It's the Longevity Manual...the complete Longevity Manual!"

"Hahaha... Heaven has not forsaken my Chunyang Palace! Heaven has not forsaken my Chunyang lineage!"

The old Taoist priest first muttered something in a low voice, then suddenly burst into laughter.

As he laughed, two lines of tears slid down his cheeks.

Zhao Zian did not interrupt him.

He could feel all the emotions that the old Taoist priest had poured into the three words "Chunyang Palace".

After laughing for a long time, Xuan Yangzi began to cough violently, and with each cough, a trace of blood would spill from the corner of his mouth.

"Child, what...what is your name? Where did you receive this inheritance?"

He gasped for breath and asked with his last breath.

"This junior is Zhao Zi'an. The inheritance... comes from a dream given by our ancestors."

Zhao Zian did not hide anything, though of course, it was only half true and half false.

"My ancestors appeared to me in a dream... Good, very good!"

"It must be some reclusive patriarch who is protecting our Chunyang lineage from the unseen world!"

Xuan Yangzi clearly believed it.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a bronze token.

The token is only the size of a palm, with the character "Yang" engraved on the front and mountain and cloud patterns on the back.

"This is... a token of my Chunyang Palace's lineage. With this token, one can see the spirit tablets of the ancestral masters of all generations."

"I am Xuan Yangzi, the 367th generation successor of Chunyang Palace... Now, it belongs to you."

He stuffed the token into Zhao Zian's hand.

"From this day forward, you are the 368th generation successor of Chunyang Palace!"

"Promise me... you must... you must carry forward and glorify my Pure Yang Dao lineage!"

"I will do my best."

Zhao Zian gripped the token tightly and nodded.

"well……"

The light in Xuan Yangzi's eyes dimmed.

His lips moved, and he uttered his last words.
