My Informative Cultivation Life-Chapter 585 - 299: Acquiring the Top-Tier Immortal Technique and the Destiny Supreme Treasure_2

And regarding the whereabouts of the Life Mark, he seemed to be unaware.

At this moment, his gaze towards everyone concealed a hint of puzzlement, curiosity, and anticipation.

"Senior, it’s me!" Yang Ji spoke up, producing the Life Mark he had obtained.

"So, it’s you!" The Life and Death Sage looked at Yang Ji and uttered a meaningful statement.

This "you" was someone who had eluded the King of Life and Death’s calculations, the one that the Life and Death Sage had not accurately foreseen.

"Turns out Brother Yang is also one of the inheritors, congratulations!" Ba Kui, the ancient ancestor, said with a smile as he clasped his hands in greeting.

Yang Ji nodded in response.

"Senior, now that there are two destined individuals, and yet there is only one Immortal Technique, it’s impossible for both to learn it. Why not let us fight a great battle to determine the victor?" Mo Wudao said coldly, his gaze intent on killing Yang Ji then and there.

"Very well, let’s have a battle then!" Yang Ji was fearless; he had activated the Destiny Twin Tracks Technique, transforming his appearance. No spell could divine his whereabouts, and even if he were to kill Mo Wudao here, Mo Wudao’s Demon Ancestor father would likely have a hard time finding him.

"Hm? A Magical Treasure capable of erasing lifespan?" Mo Wudao’s pupils contracted as he looked at Yang Ji, suddenly taken aback.

"Mind Reading Technique of the Heavenly Demon? He saw some of my thoughts, how formidable!" Yang Ji’s eyebrows furrowed as the god of his psyche suddenly opened its eyes, staunchly guarding his mind.

"Hm? An untainted mind, filled with brightness, no information to be seen? Who exactly is this person? So formidable!" Mo Wudao was inwardly shocked. Their Heavenly Demon Clan could invade the psyche silently, and even a Red Dust Immortal wouldn’t detect them hiding within their mind. Yet at this moment, his technique was instantly detected by someone else; how could he not be surprised?

His view of Yang Ji gained a touch more seriousness at that moment.

But it was only a touch more.

"You think you can use a Magical Treasure to reduce my lifespan? Utterly delusional. A wisp of my Soul of Fate is fused with my father’s, effectively giving me an immortal lifespan akin to that of an Immortal King. What Magical Treasure could possibly deplete all of my lifespan?" Mo Wudao sneered inwardly, naturally unafraid.

"What? There’s such a method?" Now it was Yang Ji who was inwardly taken aback.

He, who was holding the Death Sentence, originally thought he could kill Mo Wudao in just a few moments, but he hadn’t expected Mo Wudao to have such a method.

As expected of the progeny of the Demon Ancestor, his foundation was strong.

"A contest? There’s no need for a contest, I have already chosen my inheritor from among you," the Life and Death Sage suddenly spoke.

"Already chosen?" Everyone looked back and forth between Yang Ji and Mo Wudao, wondering who would be so lucky.

"Those not involved, leave first!" The Life and Death Sage waved his hand, and everyone except for Yang Ji, Mo Wudao, and Ji Youdao was swept out of the great hall by a gust of wind, ejected from this Inner World and reappearing outside in the ruins of the Sect.

The Life and Death Sage looked towards Mo Wudao, whose face brightened with joy, but in the next instant, with a wave of the Life and Death Sage’s hand, a gust swept Mo Wudao away without a trace.

"What?" Mo Wudao cried out in disbelief, as he vanished, Yang Ji barely glanced at his ashen face.

"Young friend, this is the complete ’Seal of Life and Death’; do you dare to learn it?" In the hands of the Life and Death Sage, there was a spherical cluster of light in which black and white Dao Principles intertwined like dragons and snakes, radiating all manner of profound and mysterious essences.

"Thank you for your grace in bestowing the technique, senior!" Yang Ji did not hesitate, bowing deeply.

"Good!" The Life and Death Sage appreciated Yang Ji’s decisiveness. With a flick of his finger, he sent the spherical cluster of light into Yang Ji’s sea of consciousness, then solemnly said, "In the Immortal Realm, there are many Immortal Kings, and each of the Three Thousand Grand Daos has numerous Immortal Kings. However, not every Immortal King possesses a supreme Immortal Technique. There are two origins for supreme Immortal Techniques: one is naturally derived from the Great Dao, and the other is created by individuals."

"The supreme Immortal Techniques born from the Great Dao are few and far between, and most are created by those astonishingly talented Immortal Kings. The supreme Immortal Techniques possessed by the latter are generally difficult to obtain, only bestowed upon those who are close relatives or extremely trusted disciples and subordinates."

"It was tremendous fortune that I acquired the Seal of Life and Death, but alas, my limited destiny was not enough to enjoy it. It attracted covetous eyes and brought disaster. Perhaps, this is my tribulation, the tribulation I face as a Quasi-Imperial Monarch. Or perhaps, it is the tribulation that will lead to my becoming an Immortal King!"

"From the moment I obtained the Seal of Life and Death, I anticipated this day."

"The Immortal Path is difficult to pursue, and Longevity is not easy to achieve. A Quasi-Imperial Monarch is but a fleeting existence; without becoming an Immortal King, one will eventually fall. My friend, I ask you, if such an opportunity presented itself before you, knowing the tragic end, would you still take it?"

The Daoist of Life and Death looked at Yang Ji with a smile.

"I will!" Yang Ji replied, looking up.

"Indeed, you will, for you already have it in your possession. You are extraordinary, even I can’t see through you, nor can the King of Life and Death account for you. Perhaps that is where your confidence lies." The Daoist of Life and Death reached out, summoning the fragments of the Wheel of Destiny into his hand, and slowly said, "Young friend, how about we make a deal? I will give you these three fragments, and in exchange, please protect this wisp of my True Spirit from extinction!"

"If I don’t die, the senior will not perish!" Once Yang Ji accepted the Seal of Life and Death, one of the top Immortal Techniques, he had already taken on all its cause and effect, and such a request he would not refuse.

It could be said that the moment he accepted the Seal of Life and Death, he and the Daoist of Life and Death were already on the same side.

"Thank you, young friend!" the Daoist of Life and Death sighed deeply, and even bowed slightly to Yang Ji, "Young friend, from here on out, I will fall into silence to recover, not knowing how many years or months it might take to awaken. I won’t forget this kindness and favour."

"Young friend! Do you have any plans for the future?" The Daoist of Life and Death then turned to look at Ji Youdao.

"Since the elder’s True Spirit is with him, I will follow him from now on and protect the elder in full!" Ji Youdao said with a deep voice.

"That’s good! Even though your memories are chaotic and your Dao Principles within are disordered, once you fully stabilize and recover, you will be a peerless Golden Immortal, only a step away from the Great Luo Immortal Sage. Young friend, would you like to take in Ji Youdao? With his help, upon your ascension to the Immortal Realm, things will be much more convenient for you." The Daoist of Life and Death said with a smile, looking at Yang Ji.

"Under his command?" Ji Youdao frowned.

"This is an honor for you, and also your opportunity! This young friend is extraordinary; even the King of Life and Death and I can’t see through him or predict him, which speaks volumes." The Daoist of Life and Death said.

"Fine, he protects the elder’s True Spirit, and I’ll protect him. It’s the same thing," Ji Youdao said.

"I expect you to take him as your master!" the Daoist of Life and Death suddenly said in a stern voice.

"What? Elder, you want me to take him as my master?" Ji Youdao was stunned.

"Yes!" the Daoist of Life and Death nodded, "Ji Youdao, if you wish to stay by his side, then take him as your master. If you’re unwilling, then go and start your own life anew. You are now Ji Youdao, and you can walk the path you wish."

"This..." Ji Youdao looked troubled, pondered for a moment, then said, "Alright, I’ll acknowledge him as my master."

"Are you sure you want to acknowledge me as your master? If you do, I must plant a restriction in your Primordial Spirit," Yang Ji spoke up, prompting him to think it over again.

"Come on! I suppose the elder won’t harm me, right?" Ji Youdao said through gritted teeth.

"Alright!" Yang Ji nodded, and seeing that Ji Youdao had lowered his spiritual defenses, he immediately planted the Destiny Charm and the Life-Death Talisman.

When Yang Ji began to condense the Destiny Charm, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Daoist of Life and Death: "The Path of Destiny?"

"Yes, it is indeed the Path of Destiny. While crossing the Dao Calamity, I obtained some of Destiny’s Origin, which led to my comprehension of some aspects of the Path of Destiny," Yang Ji nodded and said.

"It seems that all of this is the will of heaven. These three fragments are destined to be yours!" The Daoist of Life and Death looked at the three fragments on the bone table, then back to Yang Ji, and said, "I have researched these three fragments for countless years and have also groped my way through a technique of prediction. Before I fall into silence, I leave you with these words: during the Great Tribulation of the Heavenly Demons, do not reveal your edge too much."

"During the Great Tribulation of the Heavenly Demons, do not reveal your edge too much?" Yang Ji was startled.

"Yes!" the Daoist of Life and Death nodded, "Young friend, can you find a peaceful place for me to rest and recover?" Read new adventures at novelbuddy

"This Life Mark is refined by the elder himself, so the senior may merge into it," Yang Ji said, looking at the Life Mark in his hand.

"Good, thank you, young friend!" the Daoist of Life and Death said, and then turned into a wisp of green smoke, merging into the Life Mark.

Yang Ji looked over and saw the word [Silence].

"Yang lad, you’ve made a huge gain. You’ve not only obtained a top-grade Immortal Technique but also three fragments of a Destiny Treasure. Such fortune is against the heavens." The Rotten Wooden Box laughed, "From this, you can overcome another tribulation."

"Then here shall I face the tribulation!" Yang Ji clenched the three Wheel of Destiny fragments, his confidence reaching an unprecedented level.

(I intended to adjust my sleeping schedule, but couldn’t manage to change it, sigh.)
