Chapter 429: Long Qing's Fear
Chapter 429: Long Qing's Fear
The Holy Chancellor breaks through, and the Annihilation Emperor descends!
Gu An once again analyzes the grand scheme of the universe and discovers that the future becomes hazy, and many things are beyond his calculations.
The most crucial point is that Gu An is unclear about the purpose of the Annihilation Emperor's arrival in the Heavenly Spirit Great World.
Long Zhan's era is far removed from his own, and even the Battle Court established by Long Zhan has become an ancient legend. The Annihilation Emperor would undoubtedly be even stronger than before, so how could he not be apprehensive? Even if this Annihilation Emperor only possessed the aura of a Freedom Immortal, Gu An believed that his true form would be an extremely formidable existence.
Under Gu An's gaze, the meteorite containing the aura of the Annihilation Emperor rapidly approaches the Heavenly Spirit Great World.
The powerful beings within the Heavenly Spirit Great World are also disturbed by the Annihilation Emperor, and they use their Divine Mind and Divine Sense to investigate, but no one dares to stop him.
Within the Holy Court's Holy Realm, vast heavenly thunder covers a thousand miles of the vast sky. The Holy Chancellor, amidst the tribulation, looks up, and his eyes reveal a hint of apprehension.
He knows that his tribulation will bring trouble, but he never expected to attract such a powerful existence!
The aura of the Annihilation Emperor reminds him of the Primordial Immortal King from before, and he curses the heavens for their unfairness. With things having come to this point, he can only grit his teeth and break through.
Once the tribulation begins, there is no turning back; it's either death or successful transcendence.
He relies on the fortune of the Holy Court to break through. He cannot afford to lose, as his failure would deal a severe blow to the entire Holy Court, as its fortune is connected to every living being within it.
Layer upon layer of grand formations protect the Holy Chancellor, emitting dazzling light and an immense, boundless pressure that rivals the might of heaven, causing the rules of the universe to go haywire, and resulting in natural disasters in the surrounding mountains and oceans.
Under the Holy Chancellor's gaze, a meteor streaks across the sky, its brilliance unobscured by the raging thunder.
At this moment, not only does the Holy Chancellor see the meteor, but powerful cultivators and demons from all corners of the universe also witness it.
Inside Ye Mansion.
Ye Lan also sees the meteor streaking across the sky, and for some reason, her heart flutters when she sees it.
She turns to look at Gu An and asks, "Did you see the meteor just now?"
Gu An nods and says, "Did you make a wish?"
Ye Lan gives him a sidelong glance, and a hint of worry appears on her face. "For a moment, I felt inexplicably afraid. Could it be that another evil demon from beyond the heavens has descended?"
Gu An laughs and says, "What's there to be afraid of? Has the Taixuan Sect encountered a great tribulation? I always feel that it's been peaceful, and the real danger lies in the overseas world."
"We can't think like that either. We can't always place our hopes on others. The Dao Support Sword Zun will eventually have to leave." Ye Lan shakes her head.
Gu An comforts her, "I am the Dao Support Sword Zun, so don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lan becomes delighted. "Really? Can the senior teach me a divine ability?"
"It's not impossible. Just say something nice."
"You want to hear something nice?"
Ye Lan gives Gu An a coquettish smile and then gets up and walks towards him.
Gu An quickly raises his hand and says, "I was just joking."
"Hmph, I took it seriously!"
...
A rumbling sound fills the air.
The meteorite, engulfed in raging flames, tears through the clouds and crashes into the mountains with a terrifying force, instantly pulverizing mountains and forests within a radius of ten thousand li. Brilliant light flashes, and a massive cloud of dust rises, resembling a colossal dust wall pushing towards the distance and destroying everything in its path.
The earth shakes, as if it were the end of the world.
As the impact spreads across the land, the center of the blast gives rise to terrifying flames that seem to tear through the sky.
This force from beyond the heavens ravages everything on the ground without mercy, its cruelty unparalleled.
Time passes, and the thunderous roar in the universe subsides, but the ground continues to churn with dust and fog, though it lacks the previous intensity.
A figure emerges from the dust, clad in a black robe with black scales underneath, shimmering with a cold light. He wears a hideous helmet with two horn-like protrusions pointing upwards, and beneath the helmet, there is no face, only darkness, like a lifeless black hole.
With each step he takes, the stones beneath his feet turn to powder, and the ground reveals magma-like patterns, an eerie sight.
He stops and looks up, his helmet still shrouded in darkness, with no eyes visible. It's unclear what he is looking at or what he is sensing.
He shifts his left foot to the side, and the dust in the air suddenly disperses, revealing the scarred and desolate land, a sight that shocks the heart. He stands in the middle of a massive crater, over a hundred li in diameter, and beyond the crater, the ground is covered in rubble and cracks, a desolate landscape.
Not only did the earth's dust settle, but even the Heavendome suddenly became clear.
The Annihilation Emperor turned to look into the distance, gazing for a few breaths before turning and taking a step forward, his figure teleporting thousands of miles.
This vast land was boundless, and after taking five steps, he still hadn't reached the edge of the continent.
He arrived at a cliff, where the ground was still trembling. Following his gaze, he saw a city collapsing below the cliff, with mortals wailing and crying in despair.
The Annihilation Emperor fell silent for a moment before waving his sleeves. The ground became calm, and pieces of rubble and wooden pillars rose into the air, flying towards the distance.
After doing all this, he disappeared from the cliff.
The cries below the cliff abruptly stopped, and the entire world fell silent.
...
In the evening, Gu An entered the Third Medicine Valley, watching the Annihilation Emperor's journey on the other side of the universe. For now, he couldn't see through the Annihilation Emperor's intentions.
The fact that the Annihilation Emperor didn't rush towards the Holy Court indicated that he wasn't drawn by the Holy Chancellor's tribulation. Instead, he seemed to be searching for something.
Perhaps it wasn't a coincidence; he might be afraid that the Holy Chancellor's tribulation would affect what he wanted.
Just as Gu An entered the Medicine Valley, Long Qing hurried over with a flattering expression, greeting him warmly.
"Get lost! If you can't comprehend it, it means the timing isn't right. Your mindset is still not stable enough," Gu An said sternly, glaring at Long Qing.
M
Long Qing had also confirmed this guess with Divine Heart Son, who now held Gu An in great respect, assuming the demeanor of a junior.
"How long do I have to wait? Why should I wait?" Long Qing asked indignantly.
Gu An suddenly had a thought.
Could the Annihilation Emperor be here for Long Qing?
Very likely!
With a stern face, Gu An said, "You already know that your physique is special. Can't you guess that you might be carrying a great karmic cause and effect? If you don't calm down, you'll face tremendous trouble, and even I won't be able to protect you. The entire universe might even be buried with you."
His tone was heavy, causing Long Qing to freeze.
Following Gu An's words, Long Qing's heart filled with unease and panic.
Gu An was using his Dao intent to influence Long Qing's emotions.
He must scare this kid!
Without absolute certainty, Gu An dared not reveal Long Qing's true identity.
The Dragon Clan's karmic cause and effect was too great, and it was highly likely that it would attract the Annihilation Emperor's true body and the current Battle Court.
Long Qing's face changed from pale to flushed, but Gu An didn't continue to scare him. Instead, he brushed past him.
After taking only a few steps, An Xian arrived and said that some disciples were fighting and needed his help.
Hearing the names of the fighters, Gu An understood why An Xian had sought him out.
Two geniuses!
These two were among the top talents in the valley, and even before completing their apprenticeship, great cultivators and noble families were already trying to recruit them.
Geniuses like them were often prone to arrogance, and when such individuals met, conflicts were inevitable.
Gu An followed An Xian, not feeling troubled. His thoughts remained on the Annihilation Emperor.
The setting sun was like blood, but hanging over the Third Medicine Valley, it didn't appear tragic; instead, it was still full of vitality.
...
The Holy Chancellor's tribulation eventually triggered a great battle, with the Immortal Dynasty, Dark Abyss Empire, Demon Sect, and a few other forces with grudges against the Holy Court besieging it together.
This battle was spectacular, even drawing Gu An's attention.
Although the process was perilous, with countless casualties, the Holy Court endured the tribulation. In the end, the Holy Chancellor successfully broke through and even fought a battle with the Yang Immortal Emperor.
Despite being a scholar, the Holy Chancellor possessed formidable combat strength, able to rival the Yang Immortal Emperor. This surprised Gu An.
The Yang Immortal Emperor didn't persist; otherwise, by joining forces with the Dark Abyss Empire and the Demon Sect's Freedom Immortals, they might have been able to kill the Holy Chancellor.
This great battle was over, but it also sowed the seeds of greater calamity for the future.
Thus, the Heavenly Spirit Great World welcomed a brief period of peace.
Eight years passed in a flash.
On this day, Gu An, accompanied by An Xian and the Blood Prison Great Sage, arrived at the Ends of the Earth Valley, where Lu Immortal had returned, specifically to meet Gu An.
Gu An finished harvesting medicinal herbs before going to see Lu Immortal.
