Chapter 381: The Calamity
Chapter 381: The Calamity
According to Shen Zhen's maximum lifespan increase, could it be that she's aiming for 9,999 years?
Gu An, the seasoned actor, couldn't help but reveal a peculiar expression.
He had been diligently teaching Ye Lan, Zhen Qin, and An Xian, among others, but even then, he couldn't match Shen Zhen's maximum lifespan increase.
This was unreasonable.
Could there truly be a Heaven-favored existence in this world?
Wu Jue was one such example, and Shen Zhen was another; both didn't require assistance from others, and their maximum lifespans continued to increase on their own.
Wait a moment!
Gu An suddenly realized something and said, "Is that so? Let me hear it."
Shen Zhen immediately began explaining the secret technique she had comprehended, and Gu An listened attentively.
After a stick of incense's worth of time, Shen Zhen finished explaining and then looked at Gu An expectantly, waiting for his awe.
Gu An frowned and said, "I don't understand. It feels so profound. Is it about cultivating Qi or cultivating acupoints?"
Although he said this, he had already seen through this secret technique.
This secret technique was somewhat similar to the Primordial Reincarnation Technique.
Both touched upon the Reincarnation Path.
However, for low-level beings, the Reincarnation Path was incredibly complex and difficult to comprehend.
From Gu An's perspective, even if a first-class genius were to cultivate this secret technique, it would be challenging to master it in a short time.
He had analyzed it and determined that Shen Zhen first practiced this technique seven years ago.
To master it in just seven years?
Something was amiss; unless she already knew it beforehand.
Gu An further combined this with the changes in Shen Zhen's aura, and his suspicions grew stronger.
Such an existence was previously unseen, so why were they appearing now?
Gu An thought again. If Shen Zhen were just a Freedom Immortal, it would be difficult to see through the Reincarnation Tribulation unless she was like Ji Xiaoyu, possessing innate Dao talismans and continuously awakening memories, making her reincarnation aura more apparent.
Currently, Shen Zhen hadn't awakened any memories; she could only comprehend the cultivation method.
Looking at the entire world, beings caught in the Reincarnation Tribulation were few and far between. Why were there two such beings by her side?
Excluding Yang Jian, who was in his Original Body Realm, and Zhang Shi, whom they had met earlier, Gu An felt that beyond perception, an invisible hand was plotting against him.
It couldn't be a coincidence!
"You can't understand this? You're so stupid!" Shen Zhen glared at him, feeling annoyed that this wasn't the response she wanted.
Gu An grumbled, "Who could understand this? Why don't I ask Ji Xiaoyu to come up and listen?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhen quickly refused, "That's not possible. I'm only passing this technique to you. You must not teach it to others!"
"Why?"
"Why? I'm teaching you because we have a good relationship. I don't care about others. Did you hear me? If you spread it around, I'll definitely make trouble for you!"
Shen Zhen raised her fist, threatening him.
Gu An had no choice but to agree. He then sighed, "If this secret technique is real, then you're truly amazing. You always seem to comprehend the Dao. Could you be a reincarnated Immortal?"
He intentionally pointed this out to observe Ji Xiaoyu's reaction below.
Shen Zhen smiled triumphantly, "I've always said that I'm definitely the main character. Being a reincarnated Immortal is not impossible. If you want to become an Immortal in the future, you'll have to cling to me."
Gu An raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you really want me to hug you?"
As soon as he asked this, he regretted it. The aura below underwent even more noticeable changes.
Shen Zhen lifted her right leg and placed it on the table, then ran her right hand up her leg, from her foot to her thigh. Even though she was wearing long pants, this action was enough to stir up wild imaginations. She even challenged Gu An with a provocative look.
For the first time, Gu An noticed how long Shen Zhen's legs were.
No wonder the women in the Mystic Secret Transmission all had long legs.
"Come on, you've hugged before!" Shen Zhen said coquettishly.
Gu An heard this and immediately bristled, quickly saying, "Nonsense, when did I ever cling to you?"
"What? You're acting like you didn't do it. Let's calculate the days; it should be about four hundred years ago. Back then, you came to my cave, hugged me, and said some mushy words. Now that I think about it, it's so embarrassing!"
Shen Zhen pouted and spoke playfully, making Gu An want to hit her.
Four hundred years ago? Is she deliberately bringing up Ji Xiaoyu's age?
He could tell that Shen Zhen was saying this for Ji Xiaoyu downstairs to hear, because there was no such thing.
Gu An scoffed, "Is that so? Then let's do it again."
He stood up and walked towards Shen Zhen.
Shen Zhen looked at him provocatively, and when he really reached out to touch her leg, she immediately drew her leg back and said, "Forget it, let's talk about serious matters."
"No, you've already said it, so you must do it again!"
Seeing that Gu An was really about to pounce, Shen Zhen quickly said, "Alright, alright, I was just joking. You're so serious, as if you're afraid someone might hear. Wait, are you afraid of the person downstairs? I almost forgot. Fine, I was just talking nonsense. You and I were pure before."
Hearing her ambiguous words, Gu An was about to pat her shoulder.
Shen Zhen continued, "Really, I'm sorry. I was just joking earlier. Don't be angry, I just wanted to test if the person downstairs was eavesdropping. I won't joke like this again."
Seeing her smile, Gu An guessed that she also sensed Ji Xiaoyu's change in aura.
A few years ago, Ji Xiaoyu had broken through to the Body Merging Realm in the Tribulation Field of the Taixuan Sect, but Shen Zhen was only at the first level of the Transcend Void Realm. How could she have sensed Ji Xiaoyu's aura?
Gu An felt that something was off about Shen Zhen.
He needed to be more careful and not show too much in front of this guy.
"She wouldn't eavesdrop, and there are restrictions inside the room," Gu An said, shaking his head as he returned to his seat.
"You're quite trusting of her."
"Of course, I've watched her grow up. She's destined to become a formidable cultivator who will shake the world, not some stubborn girl caught up in emotions. You should learn from her and stop reading those inappropriate books all day."
"Inappropriate? I specifically wrote a new book for you, the Mystic Secret Transmission of the Taixuan Sect. You're hurting my feelings by saying that. I'm so sad, goodbye!"
Shen Zhen stood up and left, flicking her sleeves.
Gu An got up and stopped her, asking, "Really?"
Shen Zhen turned her head away, looking upset.
"Fine, I was just joking too. I apologize to you," Gu An sighed.
This woman really has her ways; she made me apologize and then sent me back!
Gu An could deduce the content of her new book, but he preferred the original.
Flipping through the book gives a more immersive experience!
Shen Zhen smiled triumphantly, took out a book from her sleeve, and threw it into Gu An's embrace before continuing to leave.
This guy doesn't even close the door when he leaves; he has no manners!
Gu An held the latest Mystic Secret Transmission, cursing inwardly. He flicked his sleeves and closed the door.
He returned to his seat, placing the book on the table with a reverent expression.
The Freedom Immortal of the Venerable Dao Treasury was reading such a book; it was fortunate that no one knew his cultivation realm.
Gu An felt relieved in his heart.
He wasn't being vulgar; he was cultivating!
This was a form of Mind Refinement!
By reading more books, he wouldn't be entangled by women and distracted from his Dao heart.
After preparing himself mentally, Gu An began to read the book.
At the same time, downstairs, Ji Xiaoyu couldn't help but be curious. She used her Divine Sense to peek at Gu An's book, and her pretty face turned slightly red, her eyes filled with annoyance.
"This guy..."
"Forget it, I can't take him to cultivate with me, or he might become a real trouble later!"
Ji Xiaoyu thought to herself, trying to put aside her stray thoughts and continue her cultivation.
Third Watch!
