Chapter 368: Chapter 358 Undying Scripture

"Arrange a residence for Brother Yang and let him rest before discussing the Undying Technique."

Long Chen told Long Yi.

Long Yi nodded, "Brother Yang, please follow me."

"No need," Yang Taixuan hastily said. "Lord, it is not suitable for me to stay in your estate for long. If the Great Protector finds out, I will truly be expelled from Undying Mountain. Therefore, Lord, let us make haste, find a place, I’ll transmit the Undying Technique to you, and then I must leave."

"Since Brother Yang is in such a hurry, let’s transmit the technique right here. What do you think?"

Long Chen asked.

"That’s fine."

Yang Taixuan said.

He really wanted to finish quickly and leave, as it was not appropriate to stay here for long.

"Then we shall excuse ourselves for a bit."

Long’er immediately said.

"No need to leave," Yang Taixuan said. "You all can also participate in the understanding. If you can master it as well, it doesn’t matter. Just don’t mention that I taught it."

"Thank you, Brother Yang." Long Yi said joyfully.

Xia Ling and Long’er, also very interested in the Undying Technique, were quite eager.

Soon, Yang Taixuan began to explain the Undying Technique.

The Undying Technique was a long scripture, about ten thousand characters, and he recited it quickly.

Long Yi, Xia Ling, and Long’er, listening to this Undying Scripture, felt as if they were hearing something divine, obscure and difficult to understand.

Yet Long Chen, from it, discerned the essence.

In just one go, Long Chen completely memorized the scripture.

Yang Taixuan then began to slow down and delve deeper into the explanation of the scripture.

From Yang Taixuan’s explanations, Long Chen could tell that Yang Taixuan had also only grasped a bit of the surface of the Undying Scripture.

The text was too profound, understanding just the surface could manifest a capability astounding enough to heal instantly.

At this moment, Long Chen could somewhat understand why the Great Protector was so rampant. If one fully understood this scripture, indeed, they could look down upon the world.

"Let’s stop here," Long Chen told Yang Taixuan.

Yang Taixuan paused, then hurriedly said, "Is it too difficult? Ah, Lord, this scripture is indeed obscure and difficult. Without the notes of understanding left by the predecessors of Undying Mountain, nowadays, no one from Undying Mountain would be able to comprehend anything from the Undying Scripture. The threshold is frighteningly high, and without guidance, one might spend a lifetime unable to find its essence. But don’t worry, Lord, I will inform you of the key points."

"No need," Long Chen smiled. "I think I’ve grasped something, found the threshold. I can continue to comprehend slowly."

"Really?" Yang Taixuan was surprised. "Lord, you...you’ve memorized the entire Undying Scripture in one go?"

"Um," Long Chen nodded. "I’ll try to practice it now, please guide me a little, Brother Yang."

"I dare not guide, but go ahead, Lord, I’ll watch."

Yang Taixuan said.

"Okay."

Long Chen sat cross-legged, took a deep breath, and began to gather his energy.

"He can’t really have mastered it, can he? I haven’t even memorized a few passages, how could he memorize them all?"

Xia Ling doubted.

"It seems you don’t know your man well enough," Long’er said. "My grandfather once said that his talent and comprehension are rare in this world, incomparable even to what they call geniuses and prodigies; otherwise, he wouldn’t have grown so significantly in just a few years."

"I still find it somewhat incredible..."

Xia Ling murmured softly.

Even though Xia Ling knew that Long Chen was not an ordinary person, she still habitually thought about things from a "mortal" perspective.

It wasn’t until Long Chen started to cultivate the Undying Scripture that Xia Ling suddenly realized her way of thinking was wrong, terribly wrong.

A layer of hazy light emerged from Long Chen.

This light, close to gray, carried a mysterious aura, like the mist of ancient times, hiding endless might.

Long Chen closed his eyes, silently recited the scripture in his mind, and his thoughts gradually became clear as if he saw the Gate of Undying appear before his eyes.

Hiss.

Yang Taixuan gasped, extremely shocked.

"What happened?"

Long Yi asked anxiously.

"It’s against the heavens, Lord really defies the heavens."

Yang Taixuan’s voice trembled, "This is the state of the Second Realm in the Undying Scripture. Our Master of Undying Mountain has cultivated for nearly a hundred years to barely reach the Second Realm, but Lord has reached it upon his first cultivation of the Undying Scripture, it’s truly terrifying."

As Yang Taixuan’s words fell, Xia Ling and the others couldn’t help but gasp.

But all this was not over yet.

The mysterious light on Long Chen’s body began to evolve, and ancient symbols appeared, dancing within the mysterious light.

These mysterious symbols, like the Undying Runes, continuously entered Long Chen’s body and continuously multiplied.

In the end, everything returned to calm for Long Chen.

He took a deep breath, got up after finishing his cultivation.

"If I haven’t misapprehended, the Undying Scripture should have five realms. If one can cultivate to the peak of these five realms, perhaps they can really defy the heavens and live to an unprecedented age."

Long Chen smiled.

"Admirable."

Yang Taixuan deeply bowed, "Lord has probably entered the Third Realm now and developed the Undying Talisman. Such insight is truly unprecedented."

"Merely entered the Third Realm and only touched upon some thresholds of the Third Realm, it’s not worth mentioning. Thank you, Yang, for providing the Undying Scripture. I will certainly be able to do what I promised you," Long Chen smiled.

"I believe." After thinking, Yang Taixuan said, "Lord, could you let me witness the power of the Third Realm?"

"Of course."

Long Chen smiled.

Then, Long Chen summoned the Great Xia Dragon God Sword.

Holding the sword, he slashed off his own left hand.

The left hand fell to the ground, and blood quickly gushed out.

This scene immediately terrified Xia Ling and the others.

But in the next second, they saw some mysterious runes appear, wrapping around Long Chen’s severed hand, which flew up and merged with Long Chen in an instant, restored as before without leaving any scars.

The only proof that his hand had been severed was the bloodstain on the ground.

After sheathing his sword, Long Yi, Xia Ling, Long’er, and Yang Taixuan were all stunned and speechless from the shock.

Seeing everyone like this, Long Chen immediately smiled and said, "After the Third Realm is cultivated, it indeed allows severed limbs to instantly recover, but although restored, the blood spilled is real. Each time such an injury is sustained, a vast amount of spiritual power and spiritual strength are needed for recovery, and if the spiritual power or spirit strength is not strong enough, the power of the Third Realm cannot be manifested."

"Lord, then... if it was the head that was severed, could it also defy the heavens and reattach?"

Yang Taixuan asked.

"Yes, but not in the Third Realm; only the Fourth Realm can do that," Long Chen smiled.

"The Fourth Realm is said to require reaching the Cave Law Realm to cultivate successfully. If one could reach the Cave Law and combine it with the Fourth Realm of the Undying Scripture, then one could truly be invincible." Yang Taixuan looked forward to such a realm with endless yearning.

Hearing this, Long Chen just smiled and said, "In this world, there’s no such thing as an invincible being. Cultivation Techniques are meant to serve humankind, Yang, make sure not to be led around by the nose by the Cultivation Techniques."
