Chapter 86: Sealing Technique!

"Great compassion brings joy to all beings, great pity alleviates the suffering of all beings, great compassion gives the cause of joy to all beings, great pity gives the cause of freedom from suffering to all beings!"

Xu Daoyan's mind and body merged, and in the midst of it, he seemed to have established an extremely profound connection with the Bodhi tree. A venerable monk's image appeared in his mind, explaining to him what compassion was, that non-killing was compassion, and letting go was compassion.

His heart trembled, and in that instant, an incredibly dense vitality from the Bodhi tree fused into Xu Daoyan's liver, evolving into compassionate immortal energy, which continued to flow.

The liver, which had been cultivated to the point of forming a vortex, now emitted a greenish glow, rotating within the liver vortex. Although it would still take some time to fill up, at least it was no longer bottomless!

"I wonder how long this power can last. If it can continue, I won't have any problem cultivating my entire liver to the Great Perfection!"

Xu Daoyan was filled with anticipation and stood there motionless.

No one disturbed him. Everyone knew he was in a state of enlightenment, a rare opportunity, and a force was merging into his body, continuously extending his lifespan!

He stood there for ten days and nights.

His lifespan limit, originally at 26,000 years, broke through continuously, reaching 36,000 years, the realm of a High Earth Immortal!

Once he reached 40,000 years, he would enter the realm of a Celestial Immortal. This single encounter brought Xu Daoyan a significant breakthrough.

At this moment, his liver, with its vortex, had already reached Great Perfection. Xu Daoyan looked inward at his liver, which seemed like a green sea with a vortex swirling, full of vitality!

Wood generates fire, and the strength of the liver made the heart emit a more concentrated vitality, with blood and qi surging, strengthening his entire body!

His physical strength had also made a significant leap, his power increasing greatly, incomparable to before.

What surprised Xu Daoyan even more was that he felt a sense of ancient elegance flowing within his compassionate immortal energy, a subtle connection of cause and effect that he couldn't quite describe.

At this moment, he could no longer gain anything from the mysterious Bodhi tree, and everything returned to normal!

"Congratulations, Master, you are now extremely close to the realm of a Celestial Immortal!" Bai Shi was very excited, his blood boiling. For him, watching Xu Daoyan grow step by step was more joyful than his own advancement!

"The residual power within the Bodhi tree was just right for me to use. I can only say I was lucky!" Xu Daoyan's heart was filled with excitement. Possessing even greater power made him feel very good.

"Master Daoyan, you and Meng Ziyang, Gao Ziqi are fellow disciples. You should know that the Confucian school values destiny the most. Good destiny surpasses everything else." Yun Wu was also amazed at Xu Daoyan's growth.

"Master Daoyan, if it weren't for me, do you think you could have broken through so quickly?" At this moment, Tian Tian smiled brightly at Xu Daoyan, clearly seeking some favor.

"Uh, thank you, Master Tian. However, I have nothing to offer, so consider it a favor I owe you. Whatever you ask me to do in the future, I will do it!" Indeed, without Tian Tian revealing the true meaning of the Sanskrit, even if he could break through, it wouldn't have been so significant.

Shi Yun was also happy for Xu Daoyan. Now, both of them were at the realm of High Earth Immortals.

Tian Tian was also at the realm of High Earth Immortal, while Sun Ling was slightly behind, only at the realm of High Human Immortal. After all, Aunt Dumb only taught her cultivation, without providing her with a superior environment or other cultivation materials, which was a deliberate choice to lay a solid foundation!

Meng Ziyang required them all to break through to the realm of Celestial Immortal. For Shi Yun and Tian Tian, breaking through wasn't difficult, but the key was Ling'er and Bai Shi. Without appropriate encounters, it would be hard for them to break through in a short time!

"Alright, you said it, no going back!" Tian Tian's eyes lit up.

"Of course, I won't go back on my word!" Xu Daoyan was very determined.

"Then I'll let you off for now. I'll think about it later!" She smiled, gathered her thoughts, and began to cultivate. If she didn't work hard, she would be overtaken, which would be embarrassing!

"Have you all gone out these past few days?" Xu Daoyan had been in an extremely profound state, completely unaware of what was happening outside!

"No, Sister Yun Wu said you entered a state where you had no perception of the outside world. We had to protect you. If you were interrupted, you would suffer significant losses, and in a worse case, it could be life-threatening!" Sun Ling's voice was pleasant. She and Yun Wu got along well, but they no longer deliberately tried to matchmake Yun Wu and Xu Daoyan.

"Thank you!" Xu Daoyan bowed to Yun Wu, who smiled gently, her eyes filled with warmth, making him feel a stirring in his heart.

"Now that Brother Daoyan's strength has greatly increased, why don't we go out and stretch our legs?" Shi Yun had also made significant progress in the past few days, always gaining something.

"Wait a moment. I just broke through, and on the Bodhi tree, I comprehended a technique. I want to try it out first!" Xu Daoyan immediately took out the strange egg. In the previous stage, he had been cultivating every day and had only dripped a drop of blood on it as a formality. Now that his strength had improved, he wanted to test his new technique on it!

He placed the strange egg ten feet away.

Everyone watched Xu Daoyan as a green thorn sprang from his fingertip, wrapping around the strange egg.

However, in the next instant, the green thorn was absorbed by the strange egg!

"What, it can even absorb seals!" Xu Daoyan was speechless.

"Haha, maybe Brother Daoyan's self-created technique isn't effective. Since it's a seal, let me test it!" Shi Yun laughed and stepped forward.

Reluctantly, Xu Daoyan put away the strange egg. With a thought, a green thorn shot out, tightly wrapping around Shi Yun's body.

An invisible force penetrated his training clothes, seeping into Shi Yun's body, making him feel paralyzed and unable to move!

Shi Yun tried to activate his immortal energy to break free but found himself powerless!

"Brother Daoyan, stop it! This seal is too powerful!" Shi Yun shouted. His training clothes, given to him and Ling'er by Chu Lan, were impervious to water and fire, but they couldn't resist Xu Daoyan's seal!

Xu Daoyan quickly released the seal. The green thorn dispersed, and Shi Yun felt relieved, slowly regaining his strength.

"Your technique can paralyze the enemy and penetrate physical defenses to seal them. Unless they have a magical tool to resist the seal, it's hard to defend against. However, it has one drawback: you must focus entirely on it and can't do anything else. It needs improvement and transformation. Right now, it's more of a binding technique than a seal!" Shi Yun used his immortal energy to dispel the paralysis and quickly recovered, offering his suggestions.

"Indeed, it needs improvement, but there's no rush. We'll take it step by step!" Now that he had mastered a new technique, Xu Daoyan was in a good mood. "Let's go out and stretch our legs!"

"Master Daoyan is truly remarkable. In such a short time, you've made such a significant leap. It's truly impressive." Yun Wu smiled gracefully, her demeanor elegant. She walked beside Xu Daoyan, her gentle demeanor and the faint fragrance she emitted made him feel very comfortable.

"Miss Yun Wu, every time you praise me, I don't know what to say." Xu Daoyan scratched the back of his head and laughed awkwardly. Tian Tian, standing nearby, rolled her eyes at the scene.

Everyone left the cave together.

The cold wind howled, and frost and snow fell from the sky.

"It's not even the Winter Solstice, yet it's already snowing here!" Shi Yun was amazed.

"What beautiful snow! Brother Daoyan, do you remember when we used to build snowmen with Brother Xiao Bai when we were little?" Sun Ling, innocent and carefree, spread her arms and stood in the snow.

"Yes, but Xiao Bai is far away now. However, one day, we will meet again." Xu Daoyan took out a token from his waist and said seriously.

Yun Wu was surprised and asked, "Is this the Mo Family's Mo Token? It's not something just anyone can have. Only core disciples can obtain it. Master Daoyan, do you have a connection with the Mo Family?"

"Hmm? A brother who grew up with me was taken in as a disciple by the Mo Family's Weapon Sect. He gave this to me, saying that even if we are thousands of miles apart, we can still communicate. However, it can't be used often, and he hasn't contacted me yet!" Xu Daoyan was impressed by Yun Wu's extensive knowledge.

"I see. It seems your brother, who grew up with you, must have been taken in by a very significant figure in the Mo Family. Otherwise, non-Mo Family members wouldn't be able to possess a Mo Token!" Yun Wu began to reassess Xu Daoyan. He was definitely not as simple as Xiao Yan described. Clearly, Xiao Yan's information was incomplete, but she didn't plan to report this to him for credit. She would do her job, and the rest was up to fate!

"Yes, Xiao Bai's master is indeed very powerful. If there's an opportunity, I'll introduce everyone to him!" Xu Daoyan smiled confidently. He knew his brother's return would be a stunning event.

Holding the Thunder Spear, he leaped down the rugged mountain path several times, with everyone following closely behind.

The snow wasn't thick, and each person left deep and shallow footprints in it.

"Which direction should we go next?" Shi Yun instinctively asked, taking Xu Daoyan as the center.

"Let's continue deeper ahead!" Xu Daoyan pointed forward with his spear. "Now that it's a snowy landscape, movement is somewhat inconvenient. If we encounter fierce beasts, try to use long-range attacks. Only fight at close range as a last resort. Beasts that come out in the snow are well-adapted to this environment!"

"Understood!" Everyone nodded. Tian Tian, looking at Xu Daoyan's back, muttered to herself, "When did this guy become the leader without us noticing?"
