Chapter 367: Demon Chaos
Chapter 367: Demon Chaos
The Nine-Finger Divine Lord, unaware of Gu An's thoughts, noticed a change in his expression and, fearing that the young man might believe him, said, "I'm just teasing you. Don't you think about your cultivation level? If it were truly an Immortal Dao treasure, you'd be reduced to ashes upon touching it."
Upon hearing this, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief, but on the surface, he pretended to look dismayed, as if he couldn't bear to accept this fact.
He looked down and saw that Divine Heart Son had fallen into a desperate situation and was still struggling for his life.
"Let me handle this," Gu An patted Divine Heart Son's shoulder and said.
Divine Heart Son took a deep breath and then stood up.
The Nine-Finger Divine Lord began to make his move, choosing a black piece. He stared at Gu An with a smile and said, "My chess skills have improved again. You'd better be careful this time."
Gu An sat down, twirling the Destiny Pen in his hand, and said, "In chess, I can't lose."
Standing beside them, You Yingying had a peculiar expression on her face. For some reason, she felt that Gu An's statement carried a powerful aura.
The Nine-Finger Divine Lord made the first move, and the game began.
The onlookers watched intently, and Divine Heart Son also wanted to learn from Gu An's chess strategy.
The confident Nine-Finger Divine Lord played quickly, not employing the tactics he used to tire out the old man.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Gu An stood up, and under the admiring gazes of the onlookers, he left, with You Yingying quickly following him.
Divine Heart Son looked at the chessboard, his face filled with admiration.
The Nine-Finger Divine Lord, on the other hand, had a gloomy expression, staring intently at the chessboard.
For some reason, he felt that the gap between him and Gu An was widening, and he couldn't understand why.
Gu An was about to go and see Long Qing, but You Yingying kept following him.
He could sense that You Yingying had noticed his changes, but he wasn't worried. Within the Heaven Spirit Great World, it was impossible for anyone to see through his cultivation level.
No matter how much his demeanor changed, he was still at the Nascent Soul Realm, so neither the Nine-Finger Divine Lord nor Divine Heart Son paid attention to his altered aura.
The two began chatting casually, and Gu An brought up the Star Sea Sect. Xuan Tianyi had returned to the Taixuan Sect, and An Hao and Li Ya had also left the Star Sea Sect. Although the Taixuan Sect and the Star Sea Sect maintained their cooperative relationship, the Star Sea Sect was rarely mentioned within the Taixuan Sect.
You Yingying was from the Star Sea Sect, but after coming to the Taixuan Sect, she never went back.
Previously, Gu An had been wary of her Demon identity causing trouble, but now he didn't care.
The Annihilation Realm was filled with Demons, and You Yingying's karmic entanglements were not as great as Long Qing's.
"Do you want to cultivate?" Gu An suddenly asked.
The reason You Yingying couldn't break through was due to the suppression of her demonic karmic entanglements. Perhaps her previous life feared being discovered, so her reincarnation couldn't break through to a higher realm.
With Gu An's current abilities, he could erase the karmic restrictions within her.
You Yingying glanced at Gu An and said, "Of course I want to, but my identity is special, and I can't cultivate."
"What if I could help you?"
Upon hearing these words, You Yingying's eyes filled with deep meaning. She shook her head and said, "No need. I'll just live out my life honestly and reincarnate early. I don't want to become a disaster."
After hearing this, Gu An fell silent and didn't respond.
"Why don't you ask me why I think I'm a disaster?" You Yingying asked, dissatisfied.
This guy can chat with others just fine, but why does he always freeze up when it comes to me?
Gu An turned to scrutinize her and asked, "Do you really need to ask?"
This sarcastic remark infuriated You Yingying, and she pounced on him, baring her teeth and claws.
The two of them bickered and played as they made their way to a grove of trees. The ground was covered in snow, and Long Qing was practicing his punches in the snow.
At the age of 82, Long Qing looked very young and robust. Each punch he threw was filled with power.
When he saw Gu An and You Yingying arrive, Long Qing smiled and greeted them.
Before the age of four, An Xin had taken care of him, and after that, You Yingying had raised him. In his heart, You Yingying was like a mother to him, and he held her in high regard. Gu An even felt that You Yingying held the highest position in Long Qing's heart.
"Master, foster mother, how is my set of punches?" Long Qing asked as he began demonstrating his punches.
Gu An and You Yingying stood side by side, watching his punching technique. The force of his punches filled the grove, and the sound of his robe fluttering echoed through the trees.
You Yingying watched Long Qing's movements with pride on her face.
In her heart, Long Qing was like her own child. Since Long Qing's appearance, she no longer felt emotional and lived a fulfilling life every day. She looked forward to the day when Long Qing would shake the world with his name.
Gu An compared Long Qing to Yang Jian, who was the same age. In terms of physical strength, Long Qing was a notch above. However, Long Qing's reaction speed was not as good as Yang Jian's, which might be related to their cultivation levels.
It was already impressive for Long Qing, who had no Spirit Energy, to possess such strength.
After Long Qing finished demonstrating his punches, he turned and came to stand before Gu An and You Yingying. He raised his fist and said, "I feel like I can spar with Nascent Soul Realm cultivators now. Master, how about we spar?"
Seeing Long Qing's enthusiasm, Gu An couldn't help but laugh.
You Yingying glared at Long Qing and said, "You're getting too big for your boots, even daring to challenge your master? Is it because I haven't beaten you in a while, and you've forgotten how I taught you?"
Hearing this, Long Qing quickly explained, "It's just a friendly spar, and we'll stop at the first sign of trouble. The thing is, there are no other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators in the Medicine Valley, and I can't just go and cause trouble in the inner sect..."
"It's fine, come on," Gu An said with a smile, causing Long Qing to smile broadly and quickly thank him.
You Yingying looked at Gu An, her face tense. "This kid doesn't hold back, so you'd better be careful."
"Gu An shrugged and said, "Please, I was once a genius on the Jinbang."
The Jinbang and Tianbang rankings established by the Taixuan Sect still held great authority, and each session attracted talented individuals from the continent to compete. However, Gu An no longer participated.
As soon as Youyingying heard this, she immediately moved to the side.
Long Qing stood ten steps away, stretching his muscles. He was excited and had long wanted to test Gu An's abilities.
There had always been a legend in the Third Medicine Valley—that Gu An was incredibly powerful!
Although he couldn't compare to Immortal Dao masters like the Nine-Finger Divine Lord and Shen Xinzi, within the same cultivation realm, Gu An was undoubtedly a formidable opponent.
Holding the Destiny Pen, Gu An waved Long Qing over.
Long Qing immediately took a step forward and lunged towards Gu An.
So fast!
Youyingying's eyes couldn't keep up with Long Qing's speed, and her pupils suddenly dilated.
Long Qing threw a punch, like a dragon emerging from the depths, accompanied by the sound of air bursting. Gu An reached out and blocked Long Qing's fist with the Destiny Pen, preventing it from hitting his chest.
Long Qing's face changed dramatically, and he couldn't push his right arm forward any further. At this moment, he felt Gu An's strength, as steady as Mount Tai.
His greatest reliance was his physical strength, and when he realized that his strength was far inferior to Gu An's, he couldn't help but panic.
Gu An's mouth curled upwards, and with a swift upward jerk of the Destiny Pen in his right hand, he lifted Long Qing into the air. Then, he quickly kicked.
Boom!
Long Qing's chest was struck, his eyes bulged, and his consciousness fell into a brief blankness.
Everything happened so fast that throughout the entire process, Youyingying couldn't see how Gu An had made his move.
She only saw Long Qing rush towards Gu An and then get kicked away.
By the time she reacted, Long Qing had collided with a big tree, shaking off the snow on its trunk, almost burying him.
Youyingying glared at Gu An and said, "Why did you hit him so hard?"
After saying this, she quickly ran towards Long Qing.
Gu An sighed inwardly, thinking, 'You were worried about me getting hurt by him earlier, but now you're the one playing the good guy.'
Long Qing, with Youyingying's support, sat up. He opened his eyes and looked at Gu An, not knowing why, but suddenly, he felt a sense of awe. Gu An's figure seemed invincible in his eyes.
Even his second master, Shen Xinzi, couldn't give him this feeling.
"Keep practicing, Qing'er. I'm waiting for your next challenge." Gu An's laughter reached Long Qing's ears, helping him shake off his awe.
Long Qing took a deep breath and nodded heavily, his arrogance completely dissipating.
The winter snow continued to fall.
As Long Qing immersed himself in his disappointment, the Great Masters beyond the world were filled with worry.
After the abnormal movements in the Annihilation Realm ceased, the Heaven Demons could no longer contain themselves and began approaching the Heavenly Spirit Great World.
They suspected that the Annihilation Realm's abnormality was caused by the Heavenly Spirit Great World, while the Heavenly Spirit Great World suspected that the Heaven Demons were plotting something.
In the following days, more and more Heaven Demons flew out of the Annihilation Realm, reaching the universe region close to the Heavenly Spirit Great World and confronting the Great Masters on the Beyond Light Layer, clearly divided.
Time quickly approached the end of the year.
One day,
Gu An was sparring with Sky Fiend Child, Sky Qing, and Sky Bai in the Beyond World Cavern.
The three demons surrounded him, unable to gain the upper hand, but each of them was agile in movement and possessed impressive magical techniques.
Holding the Destiny Pen, Gu An effortlessly blocked and dodged every magical technique they threw at him.
He was secretly pleased; although the three demons had been living in the Nianchu Cave Mansion and the Beyond World Cavern for years, their strength had been steadily increasing.
Any one of the three demons could easily defeat Long Qing, and together, they could even withstand a Body Merging Realm cultivator.
The strongest among them, Sky Fiend Child, had already reached the seventh layer of the Transcend Void Realm. In addition to her exceptional natural talent, she also benefited from Gu An's supply of medicinal pills.
Sky Fiend Child stopped and said, "Let's stop here."
Sky Qing and Sky Bai also ceased their attacks, both panting heavily, their sweat dampening the hair on their foreheads and by their ears.
Their eyes, filled with fervent admiration, immediately rushed towards Gu An, each hugging one of his arms and praising their master's strength.
Gu An was used to their actions; what could he do about the demons he had raised? He could only indulge them.
Sky Fiend Child came before Gu An and said, "Master, lately, I've been feeling restless. Can you help me take a look?"
Gu An was surprised and asked, "How should I look?"
Sky Fiend Child raised her hands, grabbing the edge of her clothes at her chest, preparing to undress.
"Stop, don't joke around. Tell me carefully about your feelings," Gu An quickly said.
He suspected that these three demons were plotting something.
Sky Fiend Child pouted and then described her recent experiences. When she cultivated, her qi and blood would easily become agitated, preventing her from calming down.
She even felt like something was calling out to her, which made her very anxious.
After listening to this, Gu An couldn't help but look up, and in his pupils, a sun was reflected, and within that sun, a phoenix was hidden.
As the Heaven Demons approached in large numbers, the seven suns beyond the world were also disturbed, awakening the mysterious beings within them. Their eyes fixed on the Heaven Demons, ready for any eventuality.
Thanks to the All Extremity Realm Beings for the 2275 Qidian Coins and to Shi Yu Zhi for the 1500 Qidian Coins.
