Chapter 836

As one of the strongest individuals in this world, the Border Elder was extremely proud, convinced he knew seven or eight out of ten things under heaven.

He never expected OuYang Mingri to suddenly encounter matters of immortals and gods.

"Mingri, come, let's go aside and discuss properly—what exactly is the truth behind these immortal affairs?"

Pulling OuYang Mingri, he entered the parlor.

Yi Shan quietly brewed tea and turned to leave.

"Yi Shan, you stay too." OuYang Mingri quickly called out to Yi Shan.

To OuYang Mingri, Yi Shan was more than just a servant—he was family.

After more than ten years together, though they shared no blood, their bond was no less than that of brothers.

"Young Master..."

The Border Elder waved his hand: "Yi Shan, you stay."

Yi Shan nodded helplessly and remained in the parlor, standing by the door, pretending to stand guard.

"This matter begins a few days ago," OuYang Mingri fell into memory. "I was studying medicine when suddenly, a voice rang in my mind, inviting me to join..."

"... some Multiverse Chat Group..."

"At the time, I thought it was some strange martial art trick. Confident in my own skills, I wasn't afraid—I joined. But the chat group was real, filled with immortals from many worlds."

"Two other children from different worlds, and the last survivor of the Long Clan, joined with me."

"The Long Clan?" The Border Elder frowned.

OuYang Mingri smiled: "They're figures from another world—Master wouldn't know them. The Long Clan is extraordinary; their ancestral Long God Art allows them to transform into dragons, soaring through the nine heavens, fierce and unstoppable—a peerless supreme art."

"Though the Long God Art falls far short of the Divine Lord's supreme art, it's still top-tier martial skill."

"Transform into dragons?" The Border Elder was stunned. "Humans can turn into dragons? If possible, I'd truly like to witness such martial art."

"Of course you can," OuYang Mingri smiled. "The new member has already listed the Long God Art on Shangcheng—anyone with enough points can buy it."

"Of course." Ouyang Mingri smiled. "That new member has already listed the Dragon God Art in Shangcheng — as long as you have the points, you can buy it."

OuYang Mingri explained the chat group's point system.

"So your injury improved because you used points?" The Border Elder asked.

OuYang Mingri nodded, slightly embarrassed: "Yes, Master. Please forgive me—I was in a hurry and sold some of our sect's martial arts."

"What's that to worry about!" The Border Elder didn't care at all. "Your recovery is worth more than any martial art. By the way, how many points do you have left? What can you buy?"

"I have one thousand points left," OuYang Mingri said awkwardly. "Just enough for the first two scrolls of one martial art. Master, compared to the Long Clan's Long God Art, let's buy the Divine Lord's Long God Art instead."

"Why?" The Border Elder asked. "I heard you mention the Divine Lord—what kind of powerful figure is he?"

"Absolutely," OuYang Mingri's eyes shone with admiration. "The Divine Lord is extraordinarily gifted—all the supreme immortal scriptures in Shangcheng were created by him, and even the immortal elixirs are casually forged by him. The Long God Art he created grants six hundred years of life upon mastering just the first two scrolls; when wielded, true qi can shake the nine heavens, shatter cities and destroy nations."

"Why do you ask?" the old frontier man said. "Just now I heard you mention a Dao Lord — is this Dao Lord some formidable figure?"

"And the elixirs? They're his too. So your recovery was thanks to those elixirs?"

The Dragon God Art — once the first two volumes are cultivated, one can reach a six-hundred-year lifespan, and when striking out, true qi can shake the Nine Heavens, shatter cities, and annihilate nations.

The Border Elder was utterly stunned, and it took him a long while to recover.

"What an incredible person. Very well—buy the Divine Lord's Long God Art. I want to see what kind of miraculous art can grant six hundred years of life."

OuYang Mingri nodded and purchased the first two scrolls of the Long God Art.

Since his cultivation wasn't yet sufficient to transmit the art via spirit, OuYang Mingri chose to condense the art into a jade slip and handed it over.

The Border Elder frowned: "What is this? Is the art stored inside? How do I read it?"

"Master, this is a jade slip," OuYang Mingri explained. "It's a method used in the cultivation world to record arts—just press it to your third eye, or use your spirit to read the information within."

"Cultivation world technique?" The Border Elder was stunned. "I never thought jade could record martial arts—this method is astonishing."

Pressing the jade slip to his third eye, a stream of information appeared in his mind—the first two scrolls of the Long God Art.

The Border Elder returned the jade slip to OuYang Mingri's hand, deeply contemplating the art, his face filled with awe.

"Marvelous, marvelous! I thought I had fully grasped the mysteries of true qi—but I was merely a frog at the bottom of a well. True qi truly holds such profound subtleties."

"And the physical cultivation path too—ten levels of flesh refinement can make one's flesh and blood so powerful, capable of uprooting mountains. Extraordinary, extraordinary! No wonder he dares call himself the Divine Lord—this art is truly divine!"

OuYang Mingri turned to Yi Shan and said: "Yi Shan, your cultivation is still too shallow to practice the Long God Art. First, cultivate the Tai Xuan Nine Divine Incantations. When you earn enough points later, I'll get you some elixirs—then we'll train the Long God Art together."

"Nine Divine Incantations?" The Border Elder asked curiously. "What are those?"

"The Nine Divine Incantations are supreme incantations created by the Divine Lord for the Tai Xuan lineage," OuYang Mingri explained. "No talent is required—just recite the incantation to cultivate. Even illiterate women, children, and the elderly can practice them."

The Border Elder's eyes widened: "Impossible! Even women and children can cultivate?"

"No falsehood, Master—watch." OuYang Mingri exchanged for a scroll of the Tai Xuan Nine Divine Incantations and handed it over.

The Border Elder took it, seeing only ordinary scripture text, deeply puzzled.

Yet having witnessed the Divine Lord's wonders, he didn't doubt the scripture's mystery—he began reciting aloud.

As the scripture's words echoed, the Border Elder's body glowed, making him appear holy and extraordinary.

"The Nine Divine Incantations are the supreme incantations created by the Dao Lord for the Taixuan lineage; they require no innate talent, only recitation of the incantation text to cultivate—even women, children, and the illiterate can practice them."

Ouyang Mingri explained.

The frontier elder, upon hearing this, widened his eyes: "This can't be true—women and children can practice them?"

"There's no falsehood in it, Master, please look." Ouyang Mingri exchanged for a scroll of the Nine Divine Incantations of Taixuan and handed it over.

The frontier elder took it, saw it was merely ordinary scripture, and was deeply puzzled.

Yet he had already witnessed the Dao Lord's wonders, so he did not doubt the scripture's mystery, and began to recite it aloud.

As the scripture's voice sounded, the next moment, the frontier elder's body glowed, making him appear sacred and extraordinary!
