Chapter 533: Ascending to the Yellow Heavens, Absolute Mind Xian Emperor
Chapter 533: Ascending to the Yellow Heavens, Absolute Mind Xian Emperor
Li Ya struggled to control his emotions as he gazed at Sword Extinction Master, cautiously asking, "Master, are you alright?"
Although the image of his master had crumbled in his heart, he couldn't forget the years of guidance and the debt of gratitude he owed.
Sword Extinction Master regained his composure and took a deep breath, saying, "I'm fine, but you must forget what happened today, or it will bring immense trouble."
He was well aware of how terrifying the Annihilation Emperor was, and this Annihilation Emperor was the original body.
Having the ability to suppress the Annihilation Emperor with a mere flick of his hand, the cultivation of the previous entity...
Sword Extinction Master couldn't help but tremble and even dared not think too deeply.
The pressure Li Ya felt was far less intense than what Sword Extinction Master endured. He didn't find Sword Extinction Master overly weak, as he was sure that with their relationship, Gu An would take care of him.
Tsk, that Gu An really scared my master, not giving him any face.
Li Ya sighed inwardly, unable to stop himself from wondering just how high Gu An's cultivation was.
How could such an invincible and powerful existence be so easily defeated by Gu An? Li Ya couldn't comprehend it at all.
How many years had Gu An cultivated, and how many hardships had he endured, to become so powerful? Li Ya couldn't even imagine.
Sword Extinction Master also couldn't imagine it. Even if it was a Profound Origin Freedom Immortal, in his understanding, aside from the Heavenly Spirit Deity guarding the Boundary Gate, the Annihilation Emperor was the most formidable existence.
But now...
Sword Extinction Master could accept the Annihilation Emperor's defeat, but he couldn't accept the Annihilation Emperor's fall without any resistance...
The Great World became terrifying in Sword Extinction Master's eyes, and indeed, at the center of the Grand Thousand Worlds, there was an unimaginable and terrifying cause and effect that couldn't be probed.
He dared not be curious about the origin of the previous entity and only hoped to forget it.
After living for so many years, he understood that even if he didn't speak, remembering certain things could still bring about immense trouble.

On the other side.
Gu An had returned to the Primordial Dao Ground. The reason he spared Sword Extinction Master was partly due to Li Ya's relationship and partly because he had a way to suppress the cause and effect, ensuring this incident wouldn't spread.
He arrived at his courtyard, lying in a chair, and raised his right hand, revealing a black orb—the transformed form of the Annihilation Emperor.
The black orb wasn't the Annihilation Emperor's original body but was formed by Gu An's cause and effect power suppressing it. Within the orb, the Annihilation Emperor was helpless, unable to escape, and could only await Gu An's judgment.
The Annihilation Emperor had possessed numerous Dragon Clan members, so Gu An couldn't directly kill him; he needed to understand the reasons.
He began to search the Annihilation Emperor's soul.
The old tree still had a few sparrows chirping on it, adding vitality to the courtyard.
Shen Zhen returned with a bamboo basket, feeling quite cheerful, even humming a little tune she had learned.
She noticed Gu An holding a black orb and asked, "What's the origin of the bead in your hand?"
She was merely curious and didn't think much of it. Usually, Gu An loved to tinker with small trinkets, causing others to marvel at his high cultivation, thinking he didn't need to cultivate daily.
"I picked it up from the river."
Gu An casually replied, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.
Through soul-searching, he saw the geniuses of the Dragon Clan throughout history. Some were possessed, while others endured endless torment, living in agony.
The Annihilation Emperor hadn't reincarnated into the Dragon Clan but had targeted the exceptionally talented Dragon Clan disciples for possession, aiming to seize their lives. If the possession failed, he would find ways to seize their bloodline, causing unimaginable pain to those whose bloodlines were taken.
As Gu An had guessed, the Annihilation Emperor was indeed attracted to the Dragon Clan's bloodline because of Long Zhan. He had noticed Long Zhan's extraordinary growth rate and found it incomprehensible, so he had been secretly observing him.
As Long Zhan transcended the Ninth Heaven of the Immortal Dao, he sensed an impending crisis, prompting his decision to take action and annihilate his opponent.
Afterwards, he took Long Xin as his disciple and assisted him in rebuilding the Battle Court. Long Xin truly held a deep master-disciple bond with Long Zhan, and there was no attempt to possess Long Xin's body.
Later, Long Xin was slain by an extremely powerful being, and Annihilation Emperor intervened but failed to avenge Long Xin. This battle left a profound impact on the Annihilation Emperor.
Subsequently, Long Xin's grandson displayed exceptional talent, rivaling that of Long Zhan. This sparked greed within him, leading to relentless searches and repeated failures, which only made him more obstinate. Eventually, this obsession resulted in a catastrophic disaster.
The slayer of Long Xin, who ascended from the Yellow Heavens, was known as the Absolute Mind Immortal Emperor.
In the Annihilation Emperor's memories, he had not yet attained the Primordial Golden Immortal Realm when he faced the Absolute Mind Immortal Emperor and was completely overwhelmed. It was only through the use of secret techniques that he managed to escape.
After that encounter, he never crossed paths with the Absolute Mind Immortal Emperor again, and he dared not venture to the Yellow Heavens, as if it were a forbidden place for him.
Additionally, Gu An learned about another significant figure.
The Immortal Emperor! This individual was the ruler of the Battle Court and the instigator of the revolution against the Dragon Clan's power. He was the longest-reigning ruler of the court, claiming eternal immortality as long as there were beings to chant his name.
The Annihilation Emperor also held great apprehension towards the Immortal Emperor, and the two had never clashed.
Interestingly, the Immortal Emperor showed no interest in the Dragon Clan and remained in seclusion for years. It was his descendants who, fearing the Dragon Clan's resurgence, initiated a hunt.
As Gu An continued to extract memories, Shen Zhen sat on a stool not far away, quietly observing him.
For some reason, she felt that the origin of the black orb in Gu An's hand was not as simple as it seemed.
At that moment, Gu An exuded an enigmatic aura, leaving Shen Zhen with an indescribable mystical sensation.
She felt an urge to paint.
Thus, she set up her easel, hung paper on it, and took out her brush and ink.
Gu An noticed her actions but said nothing.
Time passed swiftly.
After a long while, Gu An finished extracting the Annihilation Emperor's memories. He clenched his right hand, crushing the black orb.
[You have successfully extracted the lifespan of the Annihilation Emperor (mid-stage Primordial Golden Immortal Realm) - 15,098,273,628 years.]
One hundred and fifty billion years of lifespan! This revelation stirred dark thoughts within Gu An, prompting him to consider hunting down Primordial Golden Immortals.
However, he quickly suppressed these thoughts.
Those who reach the Primordial Golden Immortal Realm are undoubtedly extraordinary! Like the Annihilation Emperor, his master, close friends, and disciples are all exceptional. Killing one might be manageable, and Gu An could erase the cause and effect, but killing many would undoubtedly invite significant trouble.
Regardless, annihilating the Annihilation Emperor removed a burden from Gu An's heart.
Now, he could enjoy watching his disciples grow.
Gu An turned to look at Shen Zhen, who was sitting not far away, curious about her painting.
He saw Shen Zhen holding her brush, her expression vacant, as if frozen in place before the easel.
Gu An immediately stood up and walked over to her side, gazing at the paper on her easel. He squinted his eyes as he examined the painting.
The painting depicted a white-haired man in a blood-red robe, standing atop a mountain peak, gazing at the sun, moon, and stars.
Although Shen Zhen's painting lacked detail, Gu An instantly recognized the man.
He was Long Xin's grandson and Long Jun's son, Long Mo.
Long Mo's name, Mo, was derived from the Annihilation Emperor. When Long Mo was born, the Annihilation Emperor had visited him, unaware of his exceptional talent.
This scene in the painting did not exist in the Annihilation Emperor's memories. After the Annihilation Emperor took Long Mo away, he had not yet possessed Long Mo's body. On the Great Dao Path, they encountered a Great Dao Storm, which annihilated Long Mo, and the Annihilation Emperor was also severely injured.
