Chapter 350: Heading to the Primordial
Chapter 350: Heading to the Primordial
Upon hearing Gu An's words, Li Ya didn't think much of it and didn't inquire about who Long Qing was. He began narrating his experiences over the years.
Gu An listened attentively, occasionally glancing at Li Ya, but not staring intently. With the Divine Phantom Spirit present, Gu An could rest assured. If there was any danger that even Divine Anomaly City couldn't stop, the Divine Phantom Spirit would inform him immediately.
After leaving the Thunder Sea Demon Region, Li Ya wandered around, occasionally encountering powerful cultivators who coveted Divine Anomaly City. However, he always managed to escape, unless a Sky Earth Flying Immortal intervened, making it difficult to seize the city.
Even Sky Earth Flying Immortals who witnessed Li Ya openly displaying a False Immortal Dao Treasure dared not act rashly. From any perspective, Li Ya seemed to have a powerful background, and no one dared to offend such a person.
The higher one's cultivation, the further one could see. Even if they couldn't discern Gu An's cause and effect from Divine Anomaly City, they could still deduce that Li Ya's origins were extraordinary.
To have control over such a supreme treasure before reaching Nirvana was impossible without a powerful backer. Perhaps Li Ya's backer was hidden within Divine Anomaly City.
Over the years, Li Ya encountered numerous opportunities, and his cultivation progressed rapidly. Currently, he had already reached the third layer of the Body Merging Realm.
A cultivator in the Body Merging Realm at over three hundred years old was undoubtedly a top genius in the Duanhai Region.
Gu An couldn't help but marvel at Xuan Tian Yi's true prowess.
At present, Li Ya's breakthrough speed was still slightly inferior to Xuan Tian Yi, and Xuan Tian Yi didn't have a False Immortal Dao Treasure by his side.
Setting An Hao aside, Xuan Tian Yi was indeed the number one genius in the history of the Taixuan Sect.
The most crucial point was that Xuan Tian Yi also wrote books!
Based on the Green Knight Travels, Xuan Tian Yi often ventured out for training and didn't spend all his time on breath ingestion cultivation.
Could it be that Xuan Tian Yi had also attained enlightenment? Gu An suddenly wondered if breath ingestion cultivation was the most ordinary and basic cultivation method, and there might be even higher cultivation techniques.
Of course, it was just a passing thought. In his life cycle transformation, he could only consume his lifespan through breath ingestion cultivation.
Gu An listened to Li Ya's experiences while pondering cultivation matters.
Suddenly, the door opened, and Long Qing stumbled in, startling him. He quickly got up and was about to turn around when Gu An stopped him.
"Come in, and meet your Senior Uncle while you're at it."
Hearing Gu An's words, Long Qing was delighted and immediately walked up to Li Ya, greeting him as Senior Uncle.
Li Ya examined him, a smile appearing on his face. Then, he turned and asked, "Who is this kid?"
Gu An introduced, "I brought him back from the outside. He was just born then."
Upon hearing this, Li Ya understood. This child was different from the other disciples outside.
Li Ya took out a dagger from his storage bag and handed it to Long Qing, saying with a smile, "Consider this dagger as a greeting gift. It's a magical tool, so don't misuse it before you start cultivating."
"Thank you, Senior Uncle!" Long Qing exclaimed in delight, playing with the dagger, obviously fond of it.
Li Ya looked at Gu An and smiled, "I must say, this kid looks a bit like you."
"Nonsense!"
"Really, if you hadn't said so, I would have thought he was your son."
Seeing Li Ya's serious expression, Gu An suddenly had a thought.
Could it be that his appearance in the life cycle transformation was different from his current one?
He recalled that Lu Han's restored appearance did resemble his, and as for his previous three lifetimes, he hadn't paid much attention to his looks, but he knew he was very handsome.
"Maybe it's because I raised him, so he resembles me a little," Gu An said casually.
Long Qing's eyes dimmed. In truth, he had also hoped that Gu An was his biological father.
Gu An waved him over to join them and listen to Li Ya's experiences.
With Long Qing's addition, the atmosphere became even livelier.
It wasn't until dusk that Li Ya took his leave. Before departing, he left behind a large pile of medicinal herb seeds.
Gu An didn't see Li Ya off but instead asked Long Qing what he had been up to these past two days and why he had suddenly become less vocal.
Long Qing began to stammer and tried to explain.
On the other side, after Li Ya went downstairs, he made his way to Divine Heart Son and greeted him with a bow, asking curiously, "Senior, why are you here?"
Upon his return, he felt that the Taixuan Sect had changed a lot. No matter where he went, he encountered cultivators whose cultivation he couldn't see through.
Even in this Medicine Valley, there were many whose cultivation was beyond his understanding.
He felt that the Taixuan Sect's growth rate was even faster than his. Of course, he only marveled at it and wasn't shocked, as his Ancestor was still in the Taixuan Sect.
Compared to his Ancestor's experiences, his own were just minor adventures.
Divine Heart Son, holding the Taichuan Immortal Sovereign, looked up at him and said, "This place has a connection with me. I plan to stay here for a few hundred years to calm my mind and seek enlightenment."
In the Divine Odd Realm, Divine Heart Son's strength had left a deep impression on Li Ya. With such a powerful cultivator residing here, Gu An's safety was further assured.
Smiling, he exchanged a few pleasantries with Divine Heart Son before taking his leave.
As Li Ya's figure disappeared into the distance, Divine Heart Son suddenly spoke, "Your destiny is unusual. You will soon encounter a life-threatening tribulation."
Li Ya turned to look at Divine Heart Son and nodded with a smile. He didn't respond but instead leaped into the air and flew away on his sword.
After the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
Gu An followed Long Qing downstairs, who hurried off in the distance, while Gu An saw Ji Xiaoyu walking out of her room.
"That person from earlier, it's best if you stay away from him. I can sense that he's about to face a life-threatening calamity."
"Ji Xiaoyu spoke up."
Gu An furrowed his brows and asked, "What kind of tribulation?"
In truth, he had sensed it earlier.
Li Ya possessed the destiny of the Holy Court, and it wasn't a simple connection; it was a fusion.
He guessed that Li Ya had obtained the Destiny Fruit Position of the Holy Court, and when he tried to peer into Li Ya's past, he couldn't see why Li Ya had obtained the Destiny Fruit Position. Even he, a Divine Mind True Immortal, couldn't fully see through the destiny of the Holy Court.
"I'm not sure either, but the cultivation technique I practice allows me to sense others' destiny and fate." Ji Xiaoyu shook her head.
She had dreamed so much, not only witnessing her past life's experiences but also continuously inheriting the cultivation techniques, divine abilities, and spells from her past life.
Now, her cultivation had reached the eighth layer of the Incarnation Realm, and her progress was astonishing!
"Don't worry, he will surely have good fortune." Gu An spoke earnestly, and these words caused Ji Xiaoyu's gaze towards him to shift slightly.
"The moonlight tonight should be beautiful. Why don't you accompany me to admire the moon?" Gu An suddenly suggested.
Ji Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and then nodded slightly.
...
Divine Odd Realm.
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm and several Divine Odd Ghost Kings stood by the seaside, gazing at the raging waves on the ocean.
Amidst the surging waves, a figure stood in mid-air, shirtless, with clenched fists and long white hair flowing freely, dampened by the seawater. He was breathing heavily.
Zhang Bu Ku!
"It's done... It's done..."
Excitement flashed across Zhang Bu Ku's face.
He turned his head to look into the distance, and his gaze met that of the Lord of the Divine Odd Realm from afar.
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm smiled and nodded slightly at him.
Boom!
The waves exploded, and in almost an instant, Zhang Bu Ku appeared before the Lord of the Divine Odd Realm, startling the surrounding Divine Odd Ghost Kings.
Such incredible speed!
Qie Wuxing was secretly shocked in his heart. Over the years, he had watched Zhang Bu Ku grow, and this boy's comprehension had become increasingly powerful.
Given time, this child would surely shake the world.
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm looked at Zhang Bu Ku and said, "You have already cultivated the strongest Ancient Treasure Body. It's time for you to set out."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Bu Ku immediately asked, "Master, where exactly do you want me to go?"
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm spoke with a heavy heart, "To another Great Universe."
"A Great Universe?"
Zhang Bu Ku became even more confused, while the Divine Odd Ghost Kings showed various expressions, each lost in their own thoughts, as they all reminisced.
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm said in a low voice, "The Great Universe you were in before is called the Heavenly Spirit Great Universe, and the Duanhai Region is just a small area within the vast universe. Beyond the heavens, there exist many other Great Universes that rival the Heavenly Spirit Great Universe in size, and their existence surpasses your imagination. The Divine Odd Realm, on the other hand, is detached from the power of these Great Universes, and this power originates from the Annihilation Realm outside the heavens."
"Regarding the Annihilation Realm, you'll have to understand it yourself in the future, but you can know this much: the Divine Odd Realm can lead to different Great Universes. However, those Great Universes are very dangerous, and we don't have many options to choose from."
Zhang Bu Ku's brows furrowed after hearing this. He thought of his Master Gu and Li Ya, finding it hard to let go.
He clenched his teeth and asked, "If I leave, will I be able to return in the future?"
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm smiled and said, "Of course you can return. The dark clouds that were pressing down on us have dispersed, but the Heavenly Spirit Great Universe is under the control of the Holy Court, making it difficult for us to develop. We can only send you to other places where the order is more chaotic."
Zhang Bu Ku heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. He immediately followed up with a question about which Great Universe they would go to.
"Go to the Primordial Great Universe. There is no absolute order there, and it's more suitable for a being like you to grow. Once you arrive there, you must be more cautious in your actions. There are immortal tribes in that place, countless opportunities, but also greater dangers." The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm spoke with a heavy heart.
Zhang Bu Ku nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation.
One of the Divine Odd Ghost Kings asked, "Do we have to go as well?"
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm nodded and said, "Only one Ghost King will remain to maintain contact with the Heavenly Spirit Great Universe."
"I'm willing to stay!"
Qie Wuxing immediately spoke up, and the other Divine Odd Ghost Kings turned to look at him.
The Lord of the Divine Odd Realm gave Qie Wuxing a deep look, causing him to lower his head, not daring to meet his gaze.
"Then you stay," the Lord of the Divine Odd Realm decided.
Qie Wuxing smiled and immediately thanked him.
...
Snowflakes danced in the air as a figure approached the valley entrance of the Third Medicine Valley.
He wore armor, and snow had accumulated on his body. In the midst of the heavy snowfall, his steps were steady but not hurried.
Beneath the helmet was an aged face, and his eyes, clouded with turbidity, looked towards the valley entrance of the Third Medicine Valley. His gaze shifted slightly.
"Who are you?"
A woman's voice echoed, and Anxin appeared, carrying a bamboo basket.
The armored man turned to look, captivated by Anxin's aura. She wore a white dress, her feet leaving no footprints in the snow, and her entire being exuded an otherworldly quality, like a celestial goddess who might take flight at any moment.
He clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "I am Ye Yan. May I ask if the Valley Master of the Third Medicine Valley is still Gu An?"
Anxin nodded slightly and said, "Do you know my master? If so, I can take you to meet him."
Ye Yan's face lit up with a smile, and he sighed, "I remember him. He is also my master, but I don't know if he still remembers me."
