Chapter 205: If Heaven Won't Take You, I Will
Chapter 205: If Heaven Won't Take You, I Will
The palace resounded with the voice of the grandmaster, entrancing the cultivators gathered in the square, making it hard for them to tear themselves away.
Gu An, wielding twin swords, stepped forward. He wasn't insane enough to exterminate the entire Seven Star Spirit Realm; he only wanted to eliminate the upper echelons, dispersing the Seven Star Spirit Realm's influence across the continent.
If he were to destroy the entire Seven Star Spirit Realm, the surrounding major forces would undoubtedly become even more wary of him, possibly drawing even stronger adversaries.
Gu An walked through the ranks of Seven Star Spirit Realm disciples, each step resisting the grandmaster's teachings that emanated from the palace. The disciples behind him were jolted awake, and upon seeing Gu An, they were startled. They hurriedly stood up, drawing their magical tools and divine weapons, preparing to fight.
"Who is he?"
"What does he want?"
"We can't discern his cultivation level. We shouldn't act rashly, especially with a Divine Lord present."
"Could he be from the Star Sea Alliance?"
"No, this looks like the Shadow Demon Technique, a cultivation method from the Thousand Autumns Pavilion of the Tai Cang Empire. I've seen it before. The one who mastered it to its peak is the Sword Venerable Fu Dao, who resides in seclusion at the TaiXuan Gate..."
Sword Venerable Fu Dao!
These four words sent shivers down the spines of the disciples in the square.
How could they not have heard of Sword Venerable Fu Dao? He was the one who forced the retreat of the Spirit Soul True Lord, the master of the Six Star Cavern!
It was said that after that battle, the Spirit Soul True Lord disappeared, and no one knew where he went. Some speculated that the Spirit Soul True Lord had been killed by Sword Venerable Fu Dao.
Regardless of the rumors, Sword Venerable Fu Dao's strength was something the Seven Star Spirit Realm feared.
The disciples in the square were all geniuses or nobles of the Seven Star Spirit Realm, and they knew some of the inside stories, such as how Lin Jingshen of the Lin family died at the hands of Sword Venerable Fu Dao.
Soon, more and more disciples in the square woke up. Regardless of their cultivation level, none dared to approach Gu An, let alone try to stop him.
Before long, Gu An reached the steps of the palace.
As he drew closer, he could better sense the grandeur of the palace, emanating a Dao essence he had never felt before. This Dao essence made it easier to comprehend Dao principles, indicating that the palace's materials were extraordinary, possibly containing a powerful array.
Inside the palace, there was only one person—a Celestial Flying Immortal!
Even more powerful than the previous Earthly Gang Divine Lord!
It was important to note that the strongest cultivators in the previous Six Star Cavern and Seven Star Cavern were only at the Wandering Immortal Realm. Now, with two Celestial Flying Immortals present, it was clear that the Seven Star Spirit Realm had been well-prepared.
Fortunately, Gu An had not acted rashly before. He had confirmed that the Seven Star Spirit Realm had no Free Dao Immortal.
The Star Sea Alliance wouldn't deceive him. If the Seven Star Spirit Realm had a Free Dao Immortal, how could they allow the Star Sea Alliance to bully them so much?
"Fu Dao Sword Venerable, what irreconcilable enmity do you have with the Seven Star Spirit realm?"
An ancient voice echoed from within the palace, reverberating through the heavens. Upon hearing this voice, the restless disciples in the square calmed down.
This was a senior from the Five Star Cavern, renowned for his power and influence overseas. Surely, he could subdue Fu Dao Sword Venerable!
Because the Seven Star Spirit realm had many small heavens, each existing independently, the disciples couldn't sense the battle in the Ji family's small heaven, nor did they know that a Celestial Flying Immortal had already fallen to Gu An's hands.
They didn't know, but the Celestial Flying Immortal inside the palace was well aware!
"Raising demon ancestors, creating malevolent spirits, and toying with the continent's people—what enmity do you speak of?"
Gu An's voice rang out, and all the cultivators in the square changed expression.
Even though they had heard rumors, when Fu Dao Sword Venerable tore off the mask of righteousness, they still found it hard to accept.
After all, the Seven Star spirit realm claimed to be the righteous path!
Boom—the palace gates opened, strong winds surged out, blowing away the disciples in the square.
A figure emerged from the depths of the palace, a man in a feather robe, his face noble, with a white crane's shadow behind him, exuding an ethereal aura. He stood at the top of the steps, looking down at Gu An.
"Your body exudes demonic energy, yet you come to a sacred place seeking justice. Don't you find that absurd?"
The man in the feather robe asked, his expression indifferent.
【Myriad Miles Divine Lord (Celestial Flying Immortal Third Layer): 158082/260000/310000】
Gu An saw the prompt and remained unmoved.
He could sense that Myriad Miles Divine Lord was stalling for time, and several Celestial Flying Immortals were on their way. However, this suited Gu An's plans.
Gu An replied, "Neither demon nor immortal, if heaven won't take you, I will."
Myriad Miles Divine Lord laughed, as if he had heard the greatest joke.
"That demon ancestor is a manifestation of heavenly fortune, only to be killed, not eradicated. The Seven Star spirit realm has left countless disciples to guard it for generations, and to seal the malevolent spirits, they have sacrificed many lives."
"Sword Venerable Fu Dao, do you know how much the Seven Star spirit realm has sacrificed to protect the continent's environment and repel countless enemies, with many disciples perishing in the sea?"
"You only see the suffering of the continent's people, but have you considered the sacrifices of the Seven Star spirit realm?"
Myriad Miles Divine Lord's face contorted, and his words moved all the cultivators in the square.
Indeed, others might not know, but as disciples of the Seven Star spirit realm, how could they not know that the Seven Star spirit realm had long protected the continent?
Each of them had lost loved ones and close friends in the battles against the oceanic powers and demons.
Their gazes fell on Gu An with seething anger, as if he were the one to blame.
Gu An stood his ground, his eyes fixed on Wanli Divine Ruler. After Wanli Divine Ruler finished speaking, Gu An suddenly asked, "I have already eradicated the evil demons on the continent. Why are there still other evil demons in your hall?"
His words hung in the air, and the square fell silent. Everyone turned to look at Wanli Divine Ruler.
Wanli Divine Ruler's voice was cold and sharp. "Nonsense. Do you think I would let you search my hall?"
Rumbling thunderclouds swiftly covered the sky, and a vast, overwhelming aura descended. Wanli Divine Ruler visibly relaxed.
"My Seven Star Spirit Realm is a sacred land ordained by the Holy Court of Immortals. How could I allow you, a vile demon, to defile it!"
"Pathetic, a mere shadow that dares to challenge the Seven Star Spirit Realm with its puny strength?"
"To slay the divine ruler of the Seven Star Spirit Realm, I will ensure you are utterly destroyed, never to reincarnate!"
"For tens of thousands of years, the Seven Star Spirit Realm has saved countless lives. How could you possibly shake its foundations!"
"Righteous or evil, it is not for you to judge!"
One by one, powerful and authoritative voices thundered, each like a bolt of lightning, shaking the square and causing the disciples to look up in shock.
Amidst the rolling thunderclouds, a bright light emerged, piercing through the clouds and illuminating the heavens and earth.
At the same time.
Snow began to fall from the sky over the continent.
Despite the scorching heat of summer, snowflakes drifted down, causing a stir among all living beings.
In the Third Medicine Valley.
Disciples put down their tasks and looked up at the falling snowflakes.
Yang Jian stood by the wooden railing, reaching out to catch a snowflake. The snowflake quickly melted, not into water, but into a wisp of white vapor.
"This is..." Yang Jian furrowed his brow. He sensed an indescribable aura from the snowflake, an aura that made him want to investigate further. He immediately reached out to catch more snowflakes.
Anxin, who was playing chess with You Yingying, looked up.
"Snow in summer, what does this omen mean? I've never seen it before," Anxin murmured to herself.
You Yingying caught a snowflake, which turned into white vapor and dissipated. She seemed to realize something, her face paling slightly as she whispered, "Snow falling from the heavens, turning to vapor upon touch, this is not natural. Could it be the legendary omen of an immortal's fall?"
Anxin, curious, asked, "What is the omen of an immortal's fall?"
You Yingying replied, "I've heard that when a highly accomplished immortal falls, the heavens produce strange phenomena, a testament to their lifetime of cultivation."
"An immortal's fall? Here on the continent, or overseas?" Anxin asked curiously.
You Yingying looked up, her eyes complex as she answered, "I fear it is here on the continent."
Throughout the TaiXuan Gate, every cultivator exposed to the sunlight was discussing this sudden heavenly omen.
Ye Lan stepped out of her house and into the courtyard, her brow furrowed as she looked up.
Dozens of miles away, Wu Juee was similarly affected. He seemed to sense something profound, falling into a mysterious state.
In the Da Jiang Dynasty, at the Ju Hua Sect.
Jiang Qiong and Tanhua Guimo stood at the edge of a cliff, reaching out to catch the snow.
"An omen of an immortal's fall. It seems the conflict between the Seven Star Spirit Realm and the Star Sea Sect has reached an irreconcilable stage, with a highly accomplished immortal falling," Tanhua Guimo said, her brows furrowed and her face filled with worry.
Jiang Qiong, however, smiled. "The more intense their conflict, the more advantageous it is for us."
Despite her words, she felt a strange unease, as if something terrible was about to happen.
...
Inside the Seven Star Spirit Realm.
The thunderclouds spread, forming a massive vortex. In the center of the vortex, a golden mirror floated, its edges carved with various divine beasts. The mirror's surface was a deep blue, and it was surrounded by crimson flames.
The Immortal Path's supreme treasure, the Seven Star Mirror!
Before the Seven Star Mirror, a figure floated in mid-air, dressed in a long purple robe. Two fiery red orbs, like miniature suns, floated above his shoulders, and a crescent moon hung behind him. Threads of spiritual energy emanated from him, forming clouds and mists around his body.
He looked down on Gu An from his lofty position.
[Heavenly Justice Realm Lord (Seventh Stage of Heaven Flying Immortal): 187034/420000/490000]
Gu An observed this person's lifespan, feeling somewhat satisfied.
In this world, only seven Heaven Flying Immortals had appeared. Besides the Heavenly Justice Realm Lord, the others were all below the sixth stage, with only one reaching the fifth stage.
The moment the Seven Star Mirror appeared, the entire small world was sealed. Outsiders could not enter, and those inside could not escape.
The disciples in the square endured unimaginable pressure, kneeling and looking up at the sky in agony.
The six Heaven Flying Immortals, high above, were unmoved by the disciples' suffering.
Wanli Divine Ruler, standing before the palace gates, drew a divine weapon—a silver spear over a dozen feet long, with a black flag tied below the spearhead, depicting a demon's shadow.
The seven Heaven Flying Immortals' gazes were locked on Gu An.
At this moment, Gu An seemed to be defying the entire world!
Thank you, Bluexinheart, for the 500 Qidian Coins!
