I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

"Is this... Immortal Golden Nature?"

Looking at this strange gold light, Gu Yuan’s heart trembled, immediately associating it with the "Mirage Cloud Seal" on Silverfish Island.

This peculiar golden light seems to be the legendary Immortal Golden Seal that only a Golden Core can refine.

"Could it be that the golden opportunity beneath the water is the Immortal Golden Seal left behind by a Golden Core Ascendant after their demise?"

Gu Yuan pondered in his heart.

The Immortal Golden Seal is the only Dharma Seal that a Golden Core Ascendant can leave after death, representing the most powerful and mysterious remnant of their mana.

Any sect or family that has had a Golden Core Ascendant can surpass ordinary Foundation Establishment forces, primarily due to this golden seal.

Gu Yuan suppressed his excitement, cautiously diving downward.

Fortunately, everything was extremely calm.

The strands of golden light seemed to suppress all unease, infusing the entire cavern with a peculiar aura.

Gu Yuan cautiously approached the golden light, finally revealing its true face.

It was a magnificent golden seal, with wisps of mist-like golden clouds flowing continuously on the seal, appearing as if mountains and rivers, all beings, and the Celestial Palace were faintly emerging.

The entire golden seal had a kind of divine and ethereal feeling.

"Is this... the Life Seal?"

Gu Yuan’s heart shook tremendously!

This world has reached peak prosperity in cultivation, with Dharma Seals emerging one after another, but for mystique, the Life Seal ranks first!

Destiny first, luck second, feng shui third, accumulate virtue fourth, reading fifth!

In the past life, "destiny" was placed first.

Though cultivation in this life can change one’s fate, the character for fate remains extremely mysterious.

"Wealth is abundant," "rising swiftly," "financial prosperity" are all part of the Life Seal.

With a Life Seal, one’s life path and opportunities receive an incredible enhancement.

Before the Celestial Palace and East Sea Dragon Court were established, a great power cultivator refined a "Good Fortune Seal," forcibly changing their fortune, able to turn misfortune into blessings despite countless battles, overcoming adversity each time.

However, eventually, fate could not match the divine power, and they still fell.

Yet the mysteries of the Life Seal remain remarkable.

Especially for low-tier cultivators, obtaining a Life Seal would bring a revolutionary change in fate.

"Crack!"

Just as Gu Yuan was about to pick up the Life Seal to inspect the Dao Patterns below and identify which Life Seal it was, a sound of an eggshell breaking suddenly came from the side.

At that moment, Gu Yuan realized that beside the golden seal, there was a jade-colored little egg.

The little egg was about a foot high, crystal clear, like an artwork, placed right next to the golden seal.

Yet Gu Yuan was completely unaware.

If the eggshell hadn’t broken automatically, he might have never noticed.

It seemed his entire heart and spirit were absorbed by the golden seal.

"Something’s wrong..."

Gu Yuan suddenly became alert, realizing the oddity.

The cavern was dark, two hundred meters underwater, eerily quiet. Such a terrifying environment, how could he, a cultivator at the Qi Refining Sixth Layer without life-saving artifacts, dive in so deeply?

This vast and deep water cave could easily house a Flood Dragon, how could he have been so reckless?

He possessed Stone Liquid and could constantly explore opportunities; life’s vastness was still ahead.

But if he lost his life here?

What use would Stone Liquid be then?

Gu Yuan was struck by terror, sensing something was amiss.

He always acted cautiously, yet this time, entering the water, he hadn’t even noticed the jade egg beside the golden seal—truly peculiar.

"Crack!"

Meanwhile, the sound of the eggshell breaking continued.

Gu Yuan felt a chill, daring not to linger, quickly ascending.

"Crack!"

Just then, the eggshell broke, and a palm-sized jade-colored little snake emerged from the shell.

The jade snake seemed newly born, incredibly small, its skin like jade, with dual horns on its head; instantly captivating.

Yet, its emerald-like pupils were not filled with the confusion of newborns, but a languidness of awakening after years of sleep.

Watching Gu Yuan continuously ascending, even deploying a dharma artifact in the distance, its emerald eyes showed a playful smile.

"Zoom!"

In the next moment, its figure transformed into a bolt, piercing through the water instantly to reach above Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan’s heart trembled with intense palpitation.

"Puff!"

He wanted to act, but his body was immobilized, helplessly watching the jade-colored little snake gracefully swim to his right fingertip and take a bite.

A slight sting ensued, followed by the sensation of a sucking force attacking from the fingertip.

He felt his blood flow uncontrollably toward the fingertip, then sucked into the snake’s belly.

The blood flowed faster, Gu Yuan’s heartbeat quickened, his face uncontrollably pale.

Meanwhile, the scales on the snake grew brighter, its emerald eyes revealed a delighted expression.

"Buzzing!"

At this time, the golden seal down below seemed attracted by a peculiar force, suddenly flying, landing beside the little snake.

The golden seal passed by Gu Yuan, revealing strange Dao Patterns below.

Gu Yuan couldn’t comprehend these patterns, but four large characters inexplicably struck his chest.

"Great Fortune Heaven-Equaling!"

"This is the Great Fortune Heaven-Equaling Seal!"

Just as this thought surfaced in Gu Yuan’s mind, he fainted from excessive blood loss.

"Such delicious blood!"

"True Dragon has perished for so long; only now did the Great Fortune Heaven-Equaling Seal arrange for this little one. Is there something extraordinary?"

A raspy, languid voice suddenly emerged from the water.

This mature, alluring voice seemed brimming with all manner of charm, yet was unexpectedly spewed from the mouth of a palm-sized snake, full of contrast.

Then, a terrifying intention surged from its body, scanning every inch of Gu Yuan.

But nothing was found.

"Hmm? Five-Aperture Body, several broken dharma artifacts?"

"How can these trigger the Great Fortune Heaven-Equaling Seal? Become my servant spirit?"

The inviting voice was full of perplexity, yet seeing the eternal golden seal beside it, ultimately sighed helplessly.

"Fine, things have come to this. It has to be this way!"

"Little one, don’t die too quickly. I hope we meet again someday..."

The jade-colored little snake gazed at Gu Yuan, even in slumber, his irresistibly handsome face, suddenly chuckled softly, uncertain of what it contemplated.

Then it gently turned its head, a jade scale spontaneously detached, then swiftly pierced into Gu Yuan’s chest, vanishing.

Upon this sight, the jade-colored little snake smiled slightly, then swam swiftly, disappearing entirely along with the golden seal, as if they never existed.

In the silent waters, only Gu Yuan remained, solitary and drifting.

Fortunately, the Water-Resistant Pearl’s effect hadn’t faded; Gu Yuan was still oxygen-rich and completely dry.

With the disappearance of the jade snake, various fish began swimming into the silent cave.

They seemed filled with curiosity about this brand-new place.
