Dao Companions Help Me Live Forever

Profound Yang Sect, founded over five thousand years ago, was established by the ancestor Xuan Yang True Monarch, who was said to be a true disciple of the Nine Yang Immortal Sect and the future successor of the Soul Formation Dao.

Coincidentally, when the Nine Yang Immortal Sect first established the Nine Yang Domain, the Monster Race caused trouble from the outside.

Xuan Yang True Monarch led eight hundred disciples and twelve True Monarchs to volunteer as the sect's demon-slaying force, establishing the first line of defense outside the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, which is now known as the Xuan Yang Territory.

Later, a Phoenix Demon Lord emerged from the Monster Race and made peace with the human cultivators, restraining the Monster Race under its command from causing trouble outside the demon veins.

As a result, the defense line gradually became empty, but for some reason, Xuan Yang True Monarch did not return to the Nine Yang Immortal Sect. Instead, he established the Profound Yang Sect on the spot.

Thus, the existence of the Xuan Yang Territory came into being.

The Profound Yang Sect has been passed down for over five thousand years, with a profound heritage. It is vaguely connected to the Nine Yang Immortal Sect, and each generation has a Nascent Soul peak cultivator guarding the sect.

However, there has never been a Soul Formation Venerable.

Whether it is because Soul Formation is as difficult as reaching the heavens, and the geniuses of the Profound Yang Sect have all fallen, or there are other reasons unknown to anyone.

But the lessons of history are there, and Yue Jiu is not optimistic about Xuan Yang True Monarch's breakthrough.

Seeing the Profound Yang Sect within reach, Yu Xian expressed her thoughts.

"Xuan Yang True Monarch, who knows the truth, how could he not know? As someone so dedicated to the Great Dao, he must have considered everything.

This breakthrough, at least, has some certainty.

But this matter is strange. The Profound Yang Sect has not had a True Monarch breakthrough in so many years. Is the realm of Soul Formation really so difficult?

Or is it necessary to have a Dao Body constitution to break free from the shackles? After more than five thousand years, hasn't the Profound Yang Sect received a disciple with a Dao Body constitution to experiment with?"

Upon hearing this secret of the sect, Yu Xian's mind was filled with many thoughts.

Yue Jiu shook his head and said, "I have seen it in the sect's secret chamber. The Dao Body is born with the Dao, cherished by heaven and earth, and protected by the luck of heaven and earth. It is a matter of fate and cannot be sought after.

If one is not destined, even if they are right in front of you, you will not recognize them.

The Profound Yang Sect has established many county schools and prefectural schools, recruiting disciples from the entire territory, and the reason behind it is not lacking the desire to find a disciple with a Dao Body constitution.

However, it seems that the Profound Yang Sect is disliked by heaven and earth, as there has not been a disciple with a Dao Body constitution joining the sect to this day."

Yu Xian couldn't help but be stunned, suddenly thinking of her ex-girlfriend.

Chen Yi, as a Dao Body, possessed the appearance of a Soul Formation cultivator, seemingly having a taste of being a Son of Fortune.

If you think about it, the protection of Chen Yi by the Profound Yin Sect is indeed a bit inadequate.

For such an important disciple, there is only one senior sister who has cultivated a Second Grade Gold Core Divine Ability to protect her, without even a Nascent Soul True Monarch. It is really a bit careless.

Or perhaps the so-called luck protection of the Dao Body is so strong that the Profound Yin Sect is not worried at all.

But it is more likely that there was a guardian behind Chen Yi at that time, even she herself was unaware of it.

Two lines, one bright and one dark, run parallel. It's just the boss's usual operation.

Yu Xian, being slow to react, felt a chill behind him.

At some point, on a level he couldn't see, he may have been teetering on the edge of life and death several times.

"But now I am no longer the same as before. Whether it's Xuan Yin or Xuan Yang, they will have to call me father from now on."

Yu Xian embraced Yue Jiu's waist and they flew together into the entrance of the Profound Yang Sect.

...

Mingyue Peak.

One of the many floating peaks of the Profound Yang Sect, it is small in size, about ten miles in diameter, and only a few hundred meters tall, short and chubby.

The mountain is beautiful and lush, but lacks grandeur. It looks like a role for insignificant characters.

And this is Yue Jiu's entrance.

As one of the True Monarchs of the Profound Yang Sect, she has the qualification to raise a floating peak within the sect, which is a symbol of her status.

And many floating peaks are nourished by Rank Five spiritual veins. Even if they were originally barren and desolate, over time, they will become a blessed Cave Mansion.

With just a little maintenance, one can obtain a considerable amount of unexpected income.

Mingyue Peak is the relic inherited by Yue Jiu's predecessor and has been passed down for thousands of years.

Now, even a stone inside is filled with spiritual energy, making it a good material for refining when taken outside.

"Wife, I only knew that you were a rich woman, but I didn't expect you to be so wealthy. I don't care, you have to invest more money in my Datong Club, and I'll give you interest."

Yu Xian marveled and acted as if he was hugging the thigh of a rich woman.

It can only be said that Yue Jiu is truly a second-generation with background and foundation. Just the inheritance from her predecessors alone brings endless benefits.

Of course, there must be many things that don't make the old man feel distressed. Otherwise, after so many years of inheritance by the Profound Yang Sect, there wouldn't be just over a hundred floating peaks.

Seeing Yu Xian's funny appearance, Yue Jiu pointed at his head and explained:

"Floating peaks can be seen but not eaten. It's easy to sell them, but it's difficult to get them back."

"And this is the relic given to me by my master. It cannot be moved."

"The mountain is desolate, with only me alone. I haven't come back for a long time. I don't know what it looks like now. It must be overgrown with weeds and wild trees."

Yu Xian held Yue Jiu's hand and said affectionately, "It's okay, I'm here with you now."

"By the way, there's a question I've been wanting to ask.

These floating peaks hang in the sky all the time. Besides looking impressive, aren't they just wasting the energy of the spiritual veins?"

As a master of formations, he easily noticed the traces of formations around many floating peaks, and they seemed to be connected in some way.

Obviously, these floating peaks can only float with the help of a massive formation.

But even a small mountain like Mingyue Peak probably weighs tens of millions of tons. The amount of energy required to keep it afloat is astronomical.

Yuejiu thought for a moment and said, "I remember my master telling me that the Profound Yang Sect's mountain gate was the first line of defense against the Monster Race, equipped with a Rank Five formation that encompasses everything in the world.

And these floating peaks are important nodes of the formation, capable of transforming into powerful weapons in times of need.

However, due to the lack of war for a long time, the war transformation of the floating peaks has long been stopped, so these floating peaks have become pure spiritual lands.

The floating peaks are originally part of the sect's grand formation, and the required energy is within the circulation of the grand formation, so it won't be wasted."

"So that's how it is. The profound heritage, I have truly witnessed it today."

Yu Xian had a look of not understanding but pretending to understand, but he was secretly alert in his heart.

It seems that the information from Chu Mansion Lord was a bit outdated.

Although Yuejiu is far from the core of the sect, her identity and strength are here, and she knows far more about the sect's secrets than Chu Mansion Lord did back then.

For example, Chu Mansion Lord only knew that the Profound Yang Sect might have a trump card to counter the Soul Formation Venerable, but Yuejiu directly said what that trump card was.

And there may be more than one trump card.

In that case, even if he breaks through the Soul Formation Realm in the future, he cannot be careless. It would be best to use infiltration tactics.

Gradually turn the Profound Yang Sect into his own, and win without fighting.

Otherwise, if a real fight broke out, he might not be able to take down the Profound Yang Sect alone.

After all, when they built the defense line back then, it was probably based on the Demon Venerable as the hypothetical enemy, and when they were really in dire straits, they could still call for reinforcements.

"Still need to keep a low profile."

Yu Xian, who had just joined the sect, was full of spirit, but immediately became humble and easygoing.

"Let's go in first."

Yuejiu took out a token, waved her hand, and threw it into the void. Soon, the formation around the floating peak dispersed, revealing a passage.

Without the token, if someone saw nothing unusual around the floating peak and casually broke in, even a Nascent Soul True Monarch would have a hard time.

They entered Mingyue Peak.

Yu Xian saw rows of Spirit Fields on the mountain, with sturdy ancient trees planted orderly in the fields.

The ancient trees were lush green, with fist-sized fruits resembling various small beasts hanging from the branches like crystal carvings.

When the wind blew, these fruits seemed to come alive, making various sounds of small beasts.

"These are... Hundred Demon Fruits, Supreme Grade spiritual fruits. They need to be watered with the blood of Spirit Beasts to mature.

It is said that long-term consumption can greatly enhance physical strength and have a certain chance of obtaining the bloodline abilities of Demonic Beasts without worrying about one's own bloodline being contaminated. They are the Supreme Grade spiritual treasures that body cultivators dream of.

And these fruits are said to have excellent taste. There are so many of them here. It seems that I will have a good time following you back this time."

Yu Xian obviously didn't forget his old profession and immediately recognized the varieties of these ancient trees.

They were indeed a kind of Supreme Grade spiritual fruit rumored in legends.

It can only be said that it is worthy of being the profound heritage of a major sect. It is rare to see such Supreme Grade spiritual plants in the outside world, but here, they are planted all over the mountain.

"Well, wife, why aren't you saying anything?"

Yu Xian turned his head and saw Yuejiu's cold expression. She waved her hand, and mana gathered, about to destroy all the fruit trees on the mountain.

"Calm down, calm down!"

Yu Xian couldn't bear to see the act of wasting food and quickly stopped Yuejiu.

"What's wrong?"

Yuejiu said coldly, "I don't know about these tree species here. Someone took advantage of my absence and used my floating peak and spiritual land!"

Yu Xian was first stunned, then overjoyed.

"Ah? Hmm!"

"This is great!"

Yuejiu's expression eased slightly, but she looked at Yu Xian with some dissatisfaction.

"Somebody bullied me, and you're saying it's great?"

Yu Xian looked at the mountain full of Hundred Demon Fruit trees, like looking at a group of enchanting beauties, with a very playful smile on his face.

"Somebody went through all the trouble to plant so many spiritual fruit trees for us. Isn't that a good thing?"

Yuejiu was stunned for a moment, understanding Yu Xian's meaning, and couldn't help but say:

"You mean we can claim these fruit trees as our own?"

"What do you mean by claiming them as our own? These were originally ours."

Yu Xian straightened Yuejiu's shoulders with both hands and asked seriously,

"Where is this?"

"Mingyue Peak."

"Whose territory?"

"Mine."

"那在你的地盘上，不小心生长出了一点野生果树，应该属于谁？"

"我？"

"看来你已经懂了，这分明就是不知道哪里飞过来的灵鸟一不小心把百妖果的果树种子拉在了你的明月峰上，然后一不小心就长满了一座山。

所以这是上天的馈赠，是老天爷给你的礼物，又怎么能随便毁去。"

月玖：“……”

要不是看着满山果树打理得一丝不苟，连杂草都少得可怜，普通飞鸟，哪怕是妖 King Level的飞禽也难以突破阵法在浮峰上空拉粑粑。

她大概就真信了。

说起来，她还真有点不适应这种处理方式。

以她原本的性格来说，肯定是一拍两散，先将满山果树毁去，再找那个敢盗用她浮峰灵地的家伙打上一架。

哪怕为此受伤也无所谓，但一定要出了这口恶心。

至于占别人的便宜，她还不屑为之。

不过心里忽然有点爽是怎么回事。

连同那口恶气都散去不少。

那个敢在她浮峰种果树的家伙如果知道白白将满山的果树送给了她，大概会很生气，很不爽吧。

但那又怎么样，种在她的浮峰，那就是她的，谁来说都是这个理。

月玖看着一本正经胡说八道的 Yu Xian，脸上梨涡浅现。

“你真的好坏。”

她抱住 Yu Xian的腰，轻吸一口气道：

“但我还是好喜欢你，陪我去见见师父吧。”

Yu Xian谦虚道：“过奖过奖，谁不知道我余某人阳光开朗，是心怀大爱之人，能够免去一场争斗，实乃功德无量……”

直到他腰间传来一阵剧痛，他才连忙改口道：

“见师父是吧，我一定要好好感谢她，调教了一个这么好的徒弟，不然我哪里找得到这么一个好媳妇。”

闻言，月玖笑容越来越明显，一路上紧紧牵着 Yu Xian的手。

月玖的师父俗家姓名原素问，称号明月 True Monarch，也正是明月峰名字的由来。

为了保存师父的遗体，月玖在师父坐化后特意修建了一个冰洞，以万载寒冰和冰魄珠保存师父的肉身。

见到冰洞前的禁制没有损坏，月玖仅有的一丝担心才散了去。

那种树之人既然能够轻易进入明月峰，找到冰洞也理所应当，好在那人没打算和她结死仇。

否则亵渎了她师父的遗体，不管是什么理由，也只有一个不死不休的结果。

冰棺中，明月 True Monarch的遗体栩栩如生，好似只是睡着了一般。

Yu Xian跟在月玖身边，只是看了一眼，便垂下了眼眸，不敢多加亵渎。

但只是一眼，就能感觉出明月 True Monarch生前是一个很温柔的女人。

就是不知怎的养了一个冰块似的徒弟。

“师父，我带着我现在的道侣来见你了。你之前总说等我找到了道侣，就能明白你的感受，我想我现在应该是懂了。”

月玖跪在明月 True Monarch遗体前，看了一眼 Yu Xian。

就是这个男人让她发现了比修行更重要的东西。

Yu Xian却是会错了意，以为月玖让他跟着见礼，于是无奈地跟着跪了下去，心里安慰自己。

算了算了，人家师父都死了，死者为大，跪一个就跪一个。

“咳咳，那个，师父你好，我叫 Yu Xian。

你大概不认识我，不过没关系。如果你有在天之灵的话，请尽管放心，我会照顾好小月儿的。”

砰砰砰！

Yu Xian一点都不含糊地朝着明月 True Monarch的遗体连磕三个响的。

反正都跪了，不在乎多磕几个。

果然这一磕便是非同凡响，月玖看 Yu Xian的眼神都变得更加温柔，此刻哪还有一点冰山美人的气质。

Yu Xian知道自己解锁的姿势大概又能多上几个了。

月玖跪在师父面前，眼中情绪一直在波动，大概是在心里说些什么。

她的性子就是这样，不会用言语主动表达什么。

Yu Xian跪的无聊，便先出了冰洞。

大约半个时辰后。

Yu Xian才见到月玖走了出来，身后的冰洞发出轰隆隆的声音，火焰升腾而起，消融着整座冰洞。

“你这是干什么？” Yu Xian一脸担忧，“是不是我刚才惊扰了你师父。”

月玖朝着 Yu Xian露出了一个大大的笑脸，是 Yu Xian从未见过的灿烂笑容。

“师父早该在三百多年前就随风而去，是我的私心想要她一直陪着我，所以才一直禁锢着她的肉身。

但现在我不需要了。

"Because I have you, I am no longer alone."

That night, Yuejiu cleaned up the Cave Mansion that had been abandoned for three hundred years, showing great initiative and madness.

While enjoying himself, Yuxian secretly thanked the True Monarch Mingyue whom he had only met once.

It was not in vain that he kowtowed three times; this was the best gift his master could give him as a son-in-law.

...

The next day.

As the sun rose three poles high, Yuxian walked out of the Cave Mansion with a swagger, supporting his waist.

He saw Yuejiu standing in mid-air.

She had changed into a restrained ice-blue palace dress with half of her face covered by a veil, looking exceptionally cold and distant, keeping people at a distance of a thousand miles.

Yuxian suddenly felt no pain in his waist and his legs were no longer sore. He raised his head and chest, feeling a surge of strength in his waist that he had never seen before.

Because this was the power bestowed upon him by his new skin, which he had never seen before.

However, it was not the time for cultivation at the moment.

In front of Yuejiu, there was a young cultivator wearing a green jade crown and a purple Yang Dao robe, confronting her across the Floating Peak Formation.

When he saw Yuxian come out, the young man's gaze shifted.

"Are you the Great Love True Monarch?"

Yuxian, who was casually wearing a wrinkled outer robe with no underwear underneath, was not at all intimidated when he heard the young man call him. He took a step forward, revealing his two white, hairy thighs.

"Yes, I am."

"I didn't expect that the September True Monarch would like someone like you."

The young man seemed very resentful.

Yuxian's heart skipped a beat. Was this his love rival?

No, a love rival implies equal strength. This guy could at most be called an unattainable bootlicker.

He suddenly felt a hint of pity in his eyes.

"I know that the September True Monarch was incredibly beautiful in Profound Yang Sect and had many pursuers. You are probably one of them, brother. I understand your attitude. After all, I often question myself, why can someone like me win her heart? But later, I stopped thinking about it. After all, she is my Dao companion now. Why bother with unnecessary troubles? Don't you think so, brother?"

"Insolent!"

The young man felt stabbed again and again in his heart.

He could accept losing to someone who was a hundred times better than him, but he couldn't accept losing to someone who seemed inferior to him in every aspect.

He glared at Yuxian, and deep within his eyes, a purple flame rose.

Yuxian suddenly felt a heat in front of his eyes, as if he saw a purple sun descending with raging flames, crashing into his sea of consciousness, causing a stormy sea to surge.

"Ah."

Yuxian screamed in pain, took a few steps back, and fell into a soft embrace.

"Husband, are you okay?"

Yuejiu's voice was calm, a completely new version that Yuxian had never experienced before.

Buried in Yuejiu's arms, Yuxian suppressed his laughter and pitifully said,

"Xiaoyue, I relied on you to protect me in Profound Yang Sect."

He had no intention of doing anything remarkable in Profound Yang Sect; he saw himself more as a tourist.

Why not enjoy the benefits of being a kept man? Wasn't it great?

Besides, with his supportive First Grade Divine Ability and his philanthropic Great Love Domain, without using the Blood Puppet, his direct combat power was not even comparable to a cultivator of the same level.

Not to mention that his current revealed cultivation level was only in the early Nascent Soul stage.

It was terrifying to think that an Independent Cultivator could break through a small realm in just a few decades.

To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Yuxian, who entered Profound Yang Sect, was just an ordinary Rank Four Daoist with a cultivation level in the early Nascent Soul stage.

Yuejiu noticed Yuxian's small movements and knew that the probing of the Purple Yang True Monarch had not caused much harm to Yuxian.

After all, Yuxian was the one who fought alongside her against the Ghost Concubine, and his spiritual power far exceeded his cultivation level.

Moreover, the Purple Yang True Monarch was only a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage.

She was just concerned for no reason.

But what the Purple Yang True Monarch did was undoubtedly a slap in her face, not to mention that the Baiyao Fruit all over the mountain was the work of the Purple Yang True Monarch's birthplace, the Great Sun Peak. He came today to ask her to return these Baiyao Fruit trees.

The combination of these two things meant that this matter could not end well.

A cold light flashed in her eyes, and her True Monarch Domain instantly occupied the entire sky, erupting like a volcano.

"Seeking death!"

The Purple Yang True Monarch's eyes showed a look of horror.

"A Nascent Soul Grand Cultivator!" (End of this chapter)
