Chapter 478: A Lifespan of 1.5 Billion Years
Chapter 478: A Lifespan of 1.5 Billion Years
Gu An heard the inner voice of the Absolute Luo Sword Lord behind him, and a smile crept onto his lips.
A battle with Yan Ping'an?
If not for Yan Ping'an taking advantage of his injury back then, how could he have defeated him? In Yang Xian's life, as long with his enemies not surpassing him by two Great Realms, he had never been defeated.
After they walked away, the Blood Prison Great Sage finally couldn't help but ask about the Sword Deity that the Absolute Luo Sword Lord had mentioned.
He felt that his master must know everything, but he just didn't want to reveal the secrets of heaven and pretended not to know.
His master was an existence standing above the Ninth Heaven of the Immortal Dao.
"If they're all called Sword Deities, they must be formidable. Look at our Heavenly Spirit Great World, is there a recognized Sword Deity?"
Gu An sat on the back of the Blood Prison Great Sage and casually replied, then took out the Boundless Sword Scripture, preparing to ponder the Sword Dao Divine Ability.
The Sword Dao is hidden within the book, and with a thought, it can kill the enemy!
The enemies he locks onto will face a sword directly, unable to dodge, unable to withstand, and unable to predict!
This was Gu An's idea of the Boundless Sword Scripture, and the specific techniques still needed careful consideration.
He wasn't in a hurry; he had plenty of time to ponder the Sword Dao.
Upon hearing Gu An's words, the Blood Prison Great Sage fell into endless reverie. He felt that his name as the Great Sage needed to be reshaped.
At the very least, he wanted to make all the living beings in the world admire him, instead of him proclaiming himself as the Great Sage!
...
Ten years later.
In the Holy Domain, at the Chen Family Mansion, the soon-to-be twelve-year-old Chen Chuan was practicing the sword. He wore a white top and black pants, his black hair tied high at the back of his head. Even at his young age, he already possessed a handsome appearance.
The head of the Chen Family, Chen Xiong, stood on the stone steps, with his left hand resting behind his waist and his right hand in front of him. He held two jade stones in his hand, watching Chen Chuan's figure with a face full of contentment and doting.
Since childhood, Chen Chuan had displayed extraordinary talent. Without anyone teaching him the cultivation methods, he could cultivate spiritual energy on his own, which had shocked the entire Chen Family at the time.
Moreover, with the support of the Holy King in the background, Chen Chuan had become the Chen Family's greatest pride and expectation.
Behind Yang Jian were two great existences, whether it was the Holy Minister or the Dao Support Sword Venerable, they were both revered by the Chen Family, yet unattainable.
"Children grow up so fast."
Chen Xiong stared at Chen Chuan, marveling in his heart. Whenever he thought about Chen Chuan leaving the Chen Family, he couldn't help but feel reluctant, and when he thought about Chen Chuan's parents' fate, he felt even more heartache for the child.
Although he didn't like Xu Ling either, he didn't want to see his grandson without parents.
Chen Chuan sheathed his sword, turned to Chen Xiong, and said, "Grandfather."
He didn't seem as lively as his peers, but rather calm and composed.
He quickly walked up to Chen Xiong and looked at him, and Chen Xiong couldn't help but reach out to pat his head.
"My good grandson is truly formidable. In the future, he will surely become the number one in the world. I wonder which deity is protecting you, giving you such formidable talent." Chen Xiong said with a hearty laugh.
Chen Chuan smiled faintly and said, "Where is there a deity protecting me? If there was, my mother wouldn't have died."
Chen Xiong's smile froze, and he quickly changed the subject, asking, "You've been practicing that set of sword techniques for several months. You've already mastered the moves, so why are you still practicing?"
Chen Chuan replied, "During my sword practice, I've had many insights. Although it's the same sword techniques, in the process of practicing, I can sense other sword techniques."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiong was secretly amazed. Was there such profundity to the sword techniques left by the Holy King?
He had also seen the sword techniques left by Yang Jian, but they seemed like an ordinary set of beginner techniques. Nonetheless, he still listened to Yang Jian's words and had Chen Chuan cultivate these sword techniques.
"Really?" Chen Xiong asked in surprise.
Could it be that this is a test left by the Holy King, indicating that Chen Chuan has already passed the test?
His eyes grew brighter, and he believed that Chen Chuan was an unprecedented genius of the Chen family, one who could bring about a transformation for the family.
"It's true, I saw mountains, flowing water, an endless ocean, a brilliant river of stars, and even a river..."
Chen Chuan recounted his experiences, and Chen Xiong listened attentively, his excitement growing as if he were witnessing an unparalleled treasure.
The summer breeze blew, rustling the leaves in the courtyard, and the sight of the grandfather and grandson standing on the steps was so beautiful.
After Chen Chuan finished speaking, Chen Xiong sighed sincerely, "My dear grandson, I can't wait to see you become famous throughout the world. You will surely become the most formidable sword cultivator in the Holy Court, and perhaps the mission to end the chaotic world and defeat the Immortal Dynasty lies with you."
Chen Chuan's cheeks flushed slightly, and he scratched his head, saying, "Grandfather, you're exaggerating. I'm not that powerful."
Chen Xiong burst into laughter and began to tell stories of the formidable figures and legendary deeds of the Holy Court, leaving Chen Chuan in awe.
After all, he was still just a teenager.
Admiring heroes was in a teenager's nature.
They didn't notice someone on the eaves of the neighboring house, watching them.
It was Gu An.
At this moment, even a Freedom Immortal standing before him wouldn't sense his presence.
As Gu An observed Chen Chuan's life, he thought of Xiao Chuan accompanying his grandson. Xiao Chuan was smiling then, saying that if he had such a wonderful grandfather, it would be great.
"Now, your dream has come true," Gu An said with a smile on his face.
He also heard Chen Chuan's inner thoughts, and this kid had even greater ambitions than in his previous life.
Since that's the case, I'll fulfill your wish, after all, you've devoted your life to me.
Gu An raised his right hand and waved his sleeve towards Chen Chuan, and in an instant, a surge of Dao intent transformed into a gentle breeze that blew towards Chen Chuan, causing his black hair to flutter and his white robe to billow.
Chen Chuan's eyes widened, and he felt a bit dazed.
Chen Xiong noticed his strangeness and asked, "Grandson, what's wrong?"
Chen Chuan replied subconsciously, "It's nothing, I think I have a new insight."
"Really? Then keep thinking, I won't disturb your cultivation," Chen Xiong quickly moved away.
Seeing this, Chen Chuan closed his eyes and immersed himself in his newfound insight.
Chen Xiong stepped back ten paces, watching him, and even he felt a bit dazed.
In Chen Xiong's eyes, the radiance of the sun on Chen Chuan's body became even brighter, like a legendary immortal, ready to ascend at any moment.
Gu An remained on the eaves, looking down at Chen Chuan.
Suddenly—
[Lone Sword Life has developed hostility towards you and is filled with murderous intent. Do you want to investigate his lifespan?]
Gu An raised an eyebrow. Usually, he would also trigger lifespan premonition, as he had met many people, but it was mostly just a degree of dissatisfaction.
It had been a long time since someone wanted to kill him.
Interesting!
He immediately chose to investigate the lifespan.
[Lone Sword Life (Mid-stage Profound Origin Freedom Immortal): 318,726,309/15,000,000,000/15,000,000,000]
A lifespan of 15 billion years?
Profound Origin Freedom Immortal!
Gu An's divine sense instantly swept through the universe, but he couldn't capture this Profound Origin Freedom Immortal. Indeed, there were Profound Origin Freedom Immortals within the Annihilation Domain, but they could be counted on one hand, all in seclusion and cut off from the world.
Could this guy be from outside the universe?
Gu An pondered, then flashed back into the Tranquil Spirit Palace.
As soon as he landed, he took out the Boundless Sword Scripture from his bosom.
