Chapter 300: The Terrifying Lifespan!
Chapter 300: The Terrifying Lifespan!
“Brat, are you really that bad at talking, or are you just trying to get under my skin?”
In the darkness, Chiang Chiung’s voice rang out, her teeth gritted, but her hands didn’t squeeze Gu An too hard; it was more of a warning.
Gu An, of course, was deliberately ruining the mood. He cleared his throat and began to ask Chiang Chiung what she planned to do after the great calamity passed.
Chiang Chiung fell silent, her limbs no longer moving as she began to seriously consider the question.
Truth be told, she had never been clear about what she truly wanted. She did a lot to become stronger, but after the world-altering calamity, she felt that everything she did was meaningless.
Gu An didn’t interrupt her, allowing her the time to think.
However, in the silence, his mind wandered.
Being pinned down by Chiang Chiung, Gu An could feel every part of her body pressing against him. How could he stay calm?
At that moment, a myriad of memories from "Green Hero's Journey", "Tai Hsuan Secret Teachings", and "Black Hero's Journey" flashed through his mind.
Suddenly, he felt Chiang Chiung tremble slightly. He quickly shifted his thoughts, focusing on the matter of lifespan.
As his thoughts turned, Chiang Chiung regained her composure.
She said, “If we truly survive this calamity, I will focus on developing the Flower Gathering Sect. I won’t wander around anymore. These past years of constant travel haven’t had much meaning.”
Gu An responded, “That’s good. At least you won’t run into danger.”
Chiang Chiung suddenly reached out, hugging Gu An tightly, her body pressed against his. She whispered, “The Flower Gathering Sect’s calamity left me without any family. You are now the only person I care about. Back then, when you first entered the Eight Scenic Caverns, I was still considering whether to kill you. I never imagined that after so many years, you would become so important to me.”
Hearing this, Gu An’s body stiffened. He replied, somewhat helplessly, “It’s not that bad. I haven’t done much for you, but you taught me many spells.”
Putting aside the fact that Tao Sword Sage supported Chiang Chiung, Gu An truly felt that his public identity’s efforts for Chiang Chiung were less than what she had done for him.
Chiang Chiung had taught him many spells that he still used to this day. She had also given him magical artifacts and rare treasures.
“Why haven’t you been good to me? In the Eight Scenic Caverns, you managed it well, and you’ve never betrayed me. Every time I returned, you always welcomed me warmly. Your sincerity isn’t just about effort. If you were stronger, you would treat me even better, and I understand that. And when we first met, you had the ability to kill me, even though you hid it well, I knew that you didn’t kill me. Instead, you listened to me and followed my plans…”
Listening to Chiang Chiung, Gu An suddenly didn’t know what to say.
“Of course, you brat, you’re good to everyone. Every disciple in the valley praises you.” Chiang Chiung suddenly huffed.
Gu An, upon hearing this, immediately said, “I am the terrifying one. I’m good to everyone, making it hard to guess my thoughts.”
“Yes, but you never ask for anything in return. That means you genuinely care for the people around you, not seeking anything in return. Stop undermining yourself. I can feel it; insincerity can’t last long.” Chiang Chiung said softly.
Gu An seemed startled, saying, “You’re not thinking of binding yourself to me, are you? That’s not happening! I have a pact with my junior sister to marry in the last hundred years of our lives.”
Chiang Chiung laughed, saying, “The last hundred years? What if someone lives longer?”
“Whoever lives longer, we’ll still go on. Cultivation seeks immortality, not eternal love.”
“You’re open-minded.”
“Exactly, so don’t get any ideas about me.”
“Why can’t I? In the Thousand Year Pavilion, it’s common for one person to have multiple dao companions, and female cultivators can have many dao companions too, as long as they are strong enough. Now that I’m stronger than you, you won’t escape my grasp unless you surpass me in cultivation someday.”
Chiang Chiung said, laughing triumphantly. As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed Gu An’s face.
She began her assault.
“Are you a demon cultivator, pretending to help me avoid the calamity while actually taking advantage of me?”
“Even if you shout until your voice breaks, it won’t help!”
“Watch out, I won’t be gentle!”
“Come on, with your cultivation level, I’m too lazy to restrain you. I like it when you struggle. Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle.”
Chiang Chiung laughed triumphantly, her hands gripping Gu An’s wrists, pinning him down. Then, Gu An felt two soft things land on his face, moving around.
Not good!
This woman is getting carried away!
Gu An’s mind stirred, and the earth suddenly trembled.
Chiang Chiung froze, not daring to move.
Gu An breathed a sigh of relief, but at that moment, Chiang Chiung suddenly attacked him, catching him off guard.
“Wait, it seems the great calamity is over!” Gu An suddenly said.
Chiang Chiung asked, “How can you be sure?”
“Before finding you, I saw Tao Sword Sage take action.”
“Oh? Then you came here, so you were hoping for something to happen between us.”
“I just saw you prepared and didn’t want to waste it. Let’s go check it out.”
“Really?”
“Of course, let’s go up.”
“I’ll think about it.”
...
Rumble—
The soil under the ancient vine tree flipped open, and the coffin rose. The lid was immediately pushed off, and Gu An immediately jumped out, straightening his clothes.
Almost lost my virtue!
I’ve maintained my purity for over two hundred years; it can’t be broken now!
Gu An secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Mouths can be used, but not the essence!
Jiang Qiong slowly climbed out of the coffin, her hair slightly disheveled and her clothes in disarray. She raised her eyes to look at Gu An and gave him a seductive smile, making him quickly turn away.
"Let's not call me Ancestor anymore. After all, I forced Cheng Xuandan to take me as a disciple, and Cheng Xuandan accepted you out of ill intentions. It's not a true master-disciple relationship. Actually, you never called me Ancestor in the first place. Indeed, men are all the same, but you, you were half-reluctant, as if you were wary of something," Jiang Qiong said, giving Gu An a glare.
Gu An left with a single sentence: "I'll go check the situation."
He immediately fled.
Jiang Qiong came to the edge of the pit and watched his departing figure, licking her lips as if savoring something.
...
When Gu An returned to the Third Medicine Valley, it was still bustling with activity. The Five Thieves and the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord had also returned, standing together with Shenxinzi. They used a barrier to isolate themselves and discussed the might of the Dao-Fu Sword Sage, their emotions hard to contain.
One hand could extinguish the entire Great Cold Demon Sect—how outrageous!
It completely overturned everyone's understanding!
In these few decades, the might of the Great Cold Demon Sect had deeply penetrated everyone's hearts. It was only by understanding the terror of the Great Cold Demon Sect that the might of the Dao-Fu Sword Sage became truly unfathomable.
Gu An looked up, and saw a figure floating above the Heavenly Spirit Great Earth, gazing at the continent where Gu An was.
Ninth level of the Transcendent Immortal Realm!
Although only one minor realm higher than the Truncation Lord, his aura far surpassed the Truncation Lord, the difference was vast.
He must be the Sect Master of the Great Cold Demon Sect!
At this moment, this Sect Master only dared to observe from afar, not daring to land.
Gu An also saw the fleeing Great Cold Demon Sect cultivators scattering like rats abandoning a fallen tree, already without any fighting spirit.
He did not continue the chase, partly because the remaining cultivators were not as powerful as those he had killed, and partly because he sensed many auras approaching, even that of a Miraculous Spirit Immortal.
Indeed, it was definitely a Miraculous Spirit Immortal!
However, that person was not coming with ill intentions, and the direction from which they came was the Holy Domain where the Holy Court resided.
Since the Holy Court had appeared, he could not continue the chase.
Next, it would be a matter of the Holy Court's attitude.
Gu An summoned his attribute panel.
Name: Gu An
Lifespan: 210/790, 407, 832
Constitution: Tai-Chu Causal Body
Cultivation: Ninth Level of the Miraculous Spirit Immortal Realm
...
Seven hundred and ninety million years of lifespan!
Gu An was suddenly overwhelmed with excitement.
This was too awesome!
The guilt from the slaughter immediately vanished. Moreover, he had not wantonly killed innocents; he was upholding the will of heaven, saving all living beings!
Finally, he could make a comprehensive improvement!
Gu An grinned.
He was so close to a billion years, should he wait a bit longer?
Forget it, damn it, even just one hundred million years would take a long time, and the remaining two hundred million years would take even longer.
He needed to seize the opportunity to break through!
And it had to be a comprehensive improvement!
Gu An's heart raced with excitement. He even felt like using ten million years of lifespan to try the cycle of life and death, to see what it was all about.
He walked toward the pavilion cluster, using his magic power to shout: "Today, to thank the Dao-Fu Sword Sage for lifting the great calamity, we will celebrate tonight, as if it were a festival. All the clerks, get moving!"
His voice echoed throughout the Medicine Valley; achieving this with Core Formation Realm cultivation was not difficult. In no time, the Medicine Valley was filled with cheers.
By the time Gu An reached his pavilion, Ji Xiaoyu came up to him, giving him a meaningful look.
The two of them went upstairs and closed the door.
"I feel that the back of the Dao-Fu Sword Sage was somewhat familiar!" Ji Xiaoyu said seriously, making Gu An's heart tremble.
What did she mean?
Surely she didn't suspect him?
Gu An suddenly felt uneasy, a world-renowned powerhouse of the Great Cold Demon Sect scared by a Core Formation Realm cultivator.
He frowned and asked, "Is the Dao-Fu Sword Sage from the Ji family?"
Ji Xiaoyu shook her head and said, "No, I saw him in a dream, it must be a scene from my past life."
Gu An felt a wave of relief, but his frown deepened.
"Today's battle opened my eyes. I suddenly feel that I cannot die too early in this life. I must chase after the Dao-Fu Sword Sage," Ji Xiaoyu said, her face full of yearning.
Chase the Dao-Fu Sword Sage?
He was at the Ninth Level of the Miraculous Spirit Immortal Realm!
Gu An did not discourage Ji Xiaoyu; what if she really could do it?
He began to encourage her.
After a long chat, Ji Xiaoyu finally left, but at the door, she stopped, turned to look at Gu An, and said, "The feminine aura around you is heavier now, and that aura appeared before. You must have been entangled for a while, even though there are no signs of essence leakage."
With that, she pushed the door and left, not closing it this time.
Gu An was puzzled.
How did she figure it out?
Was it some kind of divine ability or talent?
Gu An did not dwell on it. He had another life to live, and he wanted it to be free and easy. Why think too much? Just follow his heart.
He began to wait for the Miraculous Spirit Immortal to leave. As long as the other party did not cause trouble, he would find a place to break through once they were gone.
