"Since Daoist Friend are unwilling, I will not force you. I am ready to wait for you to change your mind at any time." Yi Yunbo smiled slightly, and then his figure disappeared.

Gu Yuanqing remained calm as he fished on the Boundless River, where people came and went, including countless experts.

All those who came here were focused on who had caught a superior Dao Soul.

Unless he's willing to blend in with the crowd, it's only a matter of time.

Perhaps the only regret is that it was discovered a little too early.

Gu Yuanqing sat quietly fishing, but the feeling of being spied on never disappeared.

He glanced around briefly, then simply picked up his Fishing Gear and quickly headed away.

"Senior Brother Yi, aren't you going to go and check on him? Are you just going to let him go like this?"

"He was able to kill Zhuang Tianlai with ease, forcing Qin Yongqing and Li Yuanchun to abandon everything outside and return to their Physical Body. His cultivation is extremely high; I may not be his match."

"He's Celestial Person Great Cultivator?"

"Not quite, his aura isn't at the Pure Yang level."

"Senior Brother Void Heaven Peak. My Illusionary Spirit Sect Cultivation Method is unparalleled in the world. Am I not even as good as him?"

"Chang Le, you must know that there are people beyond people, and Outer Heavens. Never underestimate anyone in this world. The One Hundred and Eight Realms of Exquisite each hold hidden secrets. Even the lowest-ranked Slanting Moon World, has its merits."

Yi Yunbo glanced at the Rogue Cultivator who had secretly followed them, shook his head and smiled. "People die for wealth, birds die for food. In this Ancient Realm, these Cultivator are much bolder."

After all, in the Ancient Realm, even it is not easy for Celestial Person to kill Void Heaven. At most, their Divine Soul will be severely damaged. However, if they obtain something good, their future may be limitless. When they see fortuitous opportunity, countless Cultivator are willing to take the risk.

Yi Yunbo gazed in the direction Gu Yuanqing had gone, and chuckled, "Daoist Friend, can you keep this Secret Method safe? Even my Illusionary Spirit Sect's Dao Bait condensation technique has withstood countless battles before no one dared to covet it. Wealth Human Heart, let alone such fortuitous opportunity! Celestial Person would be tempted."

The Boundless River is one of the greatest fortuitous opportunity in the Ancient Realm. As long as you are skilled enough, becoming rich overnight is commonplace. A Top-Grade Profound Tier Dao Soul is enough to elevate Cultivator's cultivation level to the next level.

However, it is also a dangerous place. For the sake of cultivation, Cultivator trapped in the Void Heaven are willing to give everything, especially those whose Lifespan is about to end.

Gu Yuanqing suddenly turned towards the deep mountains and increased his speed.

One of the Cultivator following behind was taken aback for a moment, then quickly caught up, abandoning any attempt to conceal himself.

But after running less than a hundred feet, he suddenly froze, stopping in his tracks.

"What are you doing following me?" Gu Yuanqing asked, staring at the elderly Void Heaven Cultivator before him.

The old man, with his white hair and a thin sword hanging at his waist, forced a smile and said, "Old Man Daoist Friend, why do you say that? I just happened to be heading in this direction."

"Is that so? Then please go first, sir!" Gu Yuanqing stepped aside.

The old man pretended to walk forward, but after walking a hundred feet, he suddenly stopped. He turned around, remained silent for a moment, and then looked at Gu Yuanqing with eager eyes, saying, "Would you be willing to teach me your method of fishing for Daoist Friend Dao Soul? Whether it's Law Treasure, Divine Ability, or cultivation Cultivation Method, I'm willing to give anything in Old Man."

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying."

"Don't think you can fool everyone. Even Sect like the Illusionary Spirit Sect has to compromise and sell Fishing Bait. You possess the Secret Method but want to keep it all to yourself? That's impossible. I can discover it today, and many more will find out in the future. Unless you don't come to the Boundless River, you'll ultimately have to succumb to reality. Daoist Friend, you should think carefully. We can trade with each other, and it's mutually beneficial. But if you fall into the hands of the Sect like the Sanyang Sect, your Life and Death and death will be out of your own hands."

"Are you threatening me?" Gu Yuanqing asked.

The old man laughed and said, "Daoist Friend should be able to see that my Lifespan is nearing its end. For the sake of my Dao Soul, I can disregard everything."

Gu Yuanqing nodded and said, "I didn't notice it before, but I can hear it now."

The old man said, "So, what is your choice Daoist Friend? I have roamed the Boundless River for thousands of Daoist Friend and know many secrets unknown to others. If you are willing to pass on your Secret Method to me, I can still ensure your safety."

Gu Yuanqing shook his head. "A choice? There is indeed one."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

Gu Yuanqing pointed and said, "If you survive, I'll tell you next time!"

The Formless Calamity Finger.

Although it was just a casual flick of the finger, its power was far greater than before.

The old man hadn't even reached the Void Heaven Perfection, so how could he possibly withstand it? In his panic, he tried to use his Void Heaven Domain to defend himself, but to no avail.

In the blink of an eye, the Physical Body body was reduced to dust.

"With this kind of strength, you dare to threaten? Truly, people die for wealth, birds die for food; the Dao Soul can drive countless Cultivator mad."

Gu Yuanqing had assumed that someone who dared to threaten him must have some ability, but this guy died far too quickly.

No, it shouldn't be considered death. At least a wisp of his Divine Soul has left the Ancient Realm and returned to his Physical Body, but his Divine Soul has been severely damaged.

Gu Yuanqing did not linger there and quickly left.

Inside a Spirit Mountain in the East Mountain Realm.

Amidst the dense Grand Formation, an old man suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

His vitality visibly waned rapidly.

"He actually killed me?"

"He actually dared to kill me?"

The old man could hardly believe it. He sensed that his Lifespan was dwindling. He could have lived for several more decades, but now the Shade of death seemed to loom at any moment.

He looked down at the markings on his hands, feeling the deathly aura emanating from the soul's essence. His body trembled slightly, and finally, his expression gradually turned crazed.

Gu Yuanqing sought out a new place to fish.

He was positioned downstream of the Floating World.

Although the quality of the Dao Soul below is relatively low, there are few of them, and Gu Yuanqing has Heavenly Angling Technique-Congealed Dao Bait, so he is not worried about not being able to catch them.

Even if each catch only yields a few Yellow-Tier Dao Soul, the sheer number of them is still considerable.

However, this once again illustrates the saying "the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease." Gu Yuanqing had already kept a low profile, yet people still kept their eyes on him.

Cultivator are not like Ordinary Person. Those who can come here are at least Void Heaven Great Cultivator. Even some ordinary Rogue Cultivator can usually practice some Pupil Technique.

Furthermore, given the unique nature of the Boundless River Dao Soul, it's extremely difficult to conceal the truth from others.

Seven days later, the group of six arrived at the place where Gu Yuanqing was fishing.

The leader, dressed in Purple Robe and wearing Golden Crown, exuded an aura of Void Heaven Peak power, with subtle spatial Resonance intertwining within him.

"Who is that person? That aura is so powerful!" The anglers all turned their heads and whispered among themselves.

"Don't you know him? The Hall Master of the Golden Peak Hall."

"Shen Yandong, ranked sixth on the Void Heaven List?"

"Why would he come here? The top ten on the Void Heaven List have all stepped one foot into the Heavenly Human Realm, and their understanding of the Dao Resonance is already Perfection, so they no longer need to use their Dao Soul."

Judging from the looks of it, they're going to see that person!

All eyes then fell on Gu Yuanqing.
