Chapter 316: Celestial Mandate
Chapter 316: Celestial Mandate
Broken Sea Domain!
Inside Anxin's room, Gu An sat at the table, deep in thought.
Why didn't they establish a domain before?
If it was to guard against the Great Cold Demon Sect, it wouldn't have been necessary, after all, the Great Cold Demon Sect is as good as disbanded.
Gu An felt that they were targeting him, especially since the Great Cold Demon Sect had a Holy Sovereign backing them.
He could see that a large number of cultivators were building a floating sky island at the edge of the great fissure in the Broken Sea.
He observed for a while, then withdrew his gaze and looked back at Anxin.
At this moment, Anxin was in a state of enlightenment, and with Gu An's help, she had also entered a state of enlightenment and had been in it for several hours.
Gu An kept checking Anxin's limit lifespan.
Finally, Anxin's limit lifespan began to increase, albeit slightly, but it was indeed rising.
Gu An stared intently at Anxin, probing everything within her.
Soon, he once again captured that mysterious power, more complex than cause and effect, just like Ye Lan's situation.
As the limit lifespan increased, this mysterious power was separating from its main body.
It seemed that all living beings were bound by this power, and increasing the limit lifespan would weaken it.
Could this be the Celestial Mandate? Gu An fell into deep contemplation.
Even a powerful Divine Mind True Immortal couldn't see through this force that manipulated all living beings.
Regardless, at least he could now detect it, and this was a good start.
Subsequently, Gu An got up and left.
After all, this was the Third Medicine Valley, and it wouldn't be appropriate for a man and a woman to be alone in a room, especially since they were master and disciple.
Moreover, with Gu An in the Medicine Valley, no one could disturb Anxin's enlightenment.
A night passed.
The next morning, Anxin walked out of the house and followed the disciples in their exercises. She felt a little dazed, looking around curiously. She could sense that the world had changed.
From a distance, Gu An noticed that her limit lifespan had increased to three hundred years, and she hadn't even lifted her cultivation suppression. The Primordial Reincarnation Technique could further increase her limit lifespan.
Gu An didn't greet Anxin and pretended not to know about it.
In the following days, the establishment of the Broken Sea Domain and the renaming of the continent became hot topics among the people.
As summer approached.
Gu An was in the woods, instructing Yang Jian in his cultivation. He could sense Lu Xianyi observing secretly, but he didn't mind.
As long as Lu Xianyi didn't harbor any hostility towards him, it was fine.
Lu Xianyi sat in meditation high above in the clouds, his gaze sweeping downwards, deep in thought.
"This person's cultivation isn't remarkable, but his teaching skills are exceptional. Could he have really been visited by an immortal in his dreams?" Lu Xianyi wondered in his heart.
He had joined the Taixuan Sect and the Elder Hall, and he knew Gu An's identity as a book author. Besides that, he could only confirm that Gu An was indeed over two hundred years old, and many people could testify to that, so he didn't feel intimidated by Gu An.
Even if Gu An was a reincarnated powerful being, he couldn't threaten Lu Xianyi, who was at the ninth level of the Sky Earth Flying Immortal Realm!
Precisely for this reason, Lu Xianyi was more curious about Gu An, and this curiosity almost matched his anticipation for Yang Jian.
"Alright, let's end it here for today."
Gu An spoke, and Yang Jian, hearing this, followed suit and bowed to Gu An in salute.
Today, Gu An had imparted a wealth of combat experience, and after passing down the Dragon War's legacy, his combat skills surpassed those of most people in the world. In just one afternoon, Yang Jian had gained immensely.
On their way back to the valley, Yang Jian was excited. He hadn't expected his master's close-quarters combat skills to be so extraordinary.
"A genius has returned today. I'll take you to see him later."
Gu An casually mentioned, and Lu Xianyi, who was observing from above, left when they finished their cultivation and went to play chess.
"A genius? Who? The Martial Scripture Master?" Yang Jian asked curiously.
The Martial Scripture Master had sought out Gu An in the past, and Yang Jian had only seen him from a distance, later learning that he was the famous Martial Scripture Master.
"No, wait and see. You'll know soon," Gu An said mysteriously, further piquing Yang Jian's curiosity.
When the master and disciple returned to the Medicine Valley, they heard other disciples discussing.
"An Hao is here? Is it true?"
"Yes, it's true. Anxin Shijie is actually An Hao's sister. They share the same surname, could they be related?"
"Not exactly, they're from the same village and had the same master. Later, their master gave them new names."
"Oh heavens! An Hao is so handsome, like an immortal."
"Haha, you're such a romantic. In these years, the Taixuan Sect has produced countless geniuses, but to the outside world, those big shots still consider An Hao the greatest genius in the Taixuan Sect's history."
Yang Jian's face changed slightly, and he clenched his fists.
It's An Hao!
He secretly glanced at Gu An, and seeing no reaction from him, he suppressed the excitement in his heart.
His current actual cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Incarnation Realm, and this was the result of focusing on his physical cultivation.
He also wanted to be the number one genius in the world! Moreover, he had previously suspected that An Hao was the mysterious senior brother, and today he should be able to clear up this confusion.
Gu An led him towards Anxin's courtyard.
Gu An noticed that the Steal Five Elements and Lu Xianyi were observing Anxin with their divine sense, but due to the vast difference in their cultivation levels, An Hao didn't notice them.
Nine-Finger Divine Lord did not come today, while Divine Heart Son was engrossed in studying the Journey to the West under the tree, completely immersed in the world of the novel.
Gu An observed the extraordinary aura of An Hao, feeling satisfied. An Hao had already reached the Eighth Level Body Merging Realm, and his cultivation speed remained impressive.
Yang Jian was separated from An Hao by a major cultivation realm, but once they both entered the Immortal Dao Realm, this gap would become insignificant.
The master and disciple arrived at Anxin's courtyard, and Anxin turned to look, immediately breaking into a smile. She then pulled An Hao into the courtyard.
An Hao stood tall, wearing a majestic golden dragon crown and a white belted robe with sleeves as long as flowing clouds. His handsome face and sharp brows exuded a proud and domineering aura, giving off an air of looking down upon the world just by standing there. He also carried the otherworldly quality of a cultivator.
In comparison, Yang Jian seemed ordinary. Usually, Yang Jian stood out among his fellow disciples, but when faced with An Hao, it was easy to overlook him.
"Senior Brother, these years have been great. My master has been very good to me, and I haven't suffered a bit," Anxin said happily.
An Hao stopped in front of Gu An, suddenly unsure how to address him.
"Brother An Hao, have you forgotten me?" Gu An asked with a smile, his expression making others feel like they were bathed in spring breeze, instantly easing An Hao's embarrassment.
"How could I forget? We've been through life and death together. Thank you for taking care of my junior sister these years, saving me a lot of worry," An Hao said with a smile, taking out a brocade box and presenting it to Gu An.
Gu An quickly declined, but with Anxin and An Hao's joint persuasion, he reluctantly accepted it. Inside was an eighth-grade medicinal herb.
This young man was thoughtful.
An Hao's gaze shifted to Yang Jian. From the start, this young man had been staring at him unabashedly, how could he not notice? His intuition told him that Yang Jian was no ordinary person.
He felt like he was facing Tian Wu Chang, though of course, Yang Jian was far weaker than Tian Wu Chang. However, he suspected that Yang Jian might also possess some kind of ancient precious body.
"Who is this?" An Hao asked.
"My disciple, Yang Jian," Gu An smiled, finding it amusing to see his two disciples competing.
"Yang Jian? Erlang Shen?" An Hao laughed.
Yang Jian's expression turned serious. "I want to spar with you."
He had figured it out; An Hao was definitely not that mysterious senior brother. This lessened his reverence for An Hao.
In his heart, only that senior brother could suppress him, as even his master said that the senior brother's talent currently surpassed his own.
An Hao's smile faded, and he began to size up Yang Jian.
Anxin, standing nearby, wanted to speak but stopped herself. She looked at Gu An, but he remained silent with a smile on his face.
An Hao spoke up, "You're not strong enough yet, but I acknowledge your talent and courage. How about we make a pact to settle our score at the Heavenly Rank Tournament in the future?"
Yang Jian agreed, finding it reasonable. A battle like this should be witnessed by the world.
"You should thank him. He's cultivated for many more years than you. He could have bullied you, but he's willing to give you time to grow," Gu An said.
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian immediately bowed in respect.
An Hao looked at Gu An in surprise. Gu An had actually let such a talented person go. His intuition told him that even among the Star Sea Congregation, such a talent would be hard to find.
"You two continue chatting. I won't disturb you anymore."
With those words, Gu An left with Yang Jian.
An Hao didn't think further, pulling Anxin into the courtyard.
Not far away, Blood Prison Great Sage watched An Hao, secretly amazed. This young man was not to be underestimated; he even seemed stronger than Yang Jian.
Gu An returned to his room alone, opening the brocade box to examine the medicinal herb An Hao had given him.
Not long after,
Ji Xiaoyu came to find him.
"That An Hao is no ordinary person. I've seen such an aura in my dreams, and they were all existences that dominated their respective realms," Ji Xiaoyu sighed.
Gu An smiled and said, "You're not bad either!"
Among the people Gu An had encountered, those who had reached the Nirvana Realm and whose limit lifespan reached nine thousand nine hundred and ninety years could be counted on one hand. Currently, only An Hao, Yang Jian, Blood Prison Great Sage, and Ji Xiaoyu had achieved this.
Li Lingtian was only a thousand years short.
Ji Xiaoyu not only had strong talent but also a powerful background. From Gu An's perspective, An Hao's foundation seemed inferior to hers.
Of course, in terms of cultivation speed, An Hao was unmatched.
Ji Xiaoyu sat down and asked, "Why does your Medicine Valley always attract so many peerless geniuses and powerful cultivators?"
Gu An helplessly replied, "You're asking me? Who should I ask? And they're not here for me."
Ji Xiaoyu shook her head. "Although they're not here for you, you can establish good karma with each of them. You're not simple either. You're like the Great Fortune Bearer I saw in my dream. Their talent might not be the strongest, but they can constantly break through and stir up the world."
Gu An blinked and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
Ji Xiaoyu took a deep breath. "I'm preparing to go to a place with a great opportunity. Come with me!"
Gu An sighed upon hearing this; many people had said this to him.
"You go. Taixuan Sect can't do without me," Gu An refused, causing Ji Xiaoyu to widen her beautiful eyes in surprise at his decisive refusal.
