Chapter 554: Recreating the Grand Thousand Worlds
Chapter 554: Recreating the Grand Thousand Worlds
Upon hearing Celestial Sage's words, An Hao's expression turned somber. He understood what Celestial Sage intended to do, and he couldn't agree or stop him.
Celestial Sage wanted to sacrifice himself to save the commoners, and as his son, An Hao couldn't agree. But he also couldn't let the lives of countless beings die without doing something.
Celestial Sage glanced deeply at Gu An, and the Heavenly Dao Golden Core on his shoulder burst forth with golden light. The Heavenly Dao Fruit ascended and quickly blossomed, transforming into the Heavenly Vital Energy that represented the vigorous vitality of the world.
An Hao was bathed in the Heavenly Vital Energy, and his injuries quickly healed.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, watching as Celestial Sage's figure gradually faded away.
Gu An observed this scene from a distance, feeling a mix of emotions.
He guessed that Celestial Sage had noticed him, and such an existence made him uneasy. However, due to the relationship between Celestial Sage and An Hao, he couldn't take action against Celestial Sage.
Currently, Celestial Sage's sacrifice to protect the beings of the world was also a good thing for Gu An.
"I was born in the Heavenly Spirit Great World and owe you a favor. If I have the chance in the future, I will help you resurrect again," Gu An thought.
He didn't think further and instead, carefully sensed the world's creation.
He could also create the Grand Thousand Worlds, but even if he did, he couldn't take lifespan from his own Grand Thousand Worlds. Therefore, he didn't do so.
Taking lifespan within his Grand Thousand Worlds was equivalent to consuming his own magical artifacts, which wouldn't increase his power.
However, even without doing that, he could comprehend Celestial Sage's creation and enhance his understanding of the Dao.
This was a rare opportunity, a chance brought about by the self-destruction of a Primordial Golden Immortal!
As the Heavenly Vital Energy spread, the distorted cosmic space recovered, and the beings in the Heavenly Spirit Great World, the first to be swept by the Heavenly Vital Energy, regained their strength. The heavenly dome quickly formed, replacing the scenery of the universe's starry sky.
Everything was returning to normal! At this moment, the Immortal Seeking Daoist flew towards Gu An.
If they weren't old acquaintances, Gu An wouldn't have allowed him to approach.
With the profoundness of the Heavenly Obscure Purple Micro Holy Body, even if the Immortal Seeking Daoist came before Gu An, he couldn't see his true form.
Looking at the blurry Gu An, the Immortal Seeking Daoist took a deep breath and said, "Fellow Daoist, by killing the Heavenly Spirit Deity, you will invite great calamity. Every Immortal and Deity holds a Heavenly Dao Immortal Rank. Once they fall, the Heavenly Court will surely know. Even if you use the Cause and Effect Power to isolate this Grand Thousand Worlds, as long as the Heavenly Court wants to investigate, finding you is just a matter of time. In the Heavenly Court, there are countless existences more powerful than the Heavenly Spirit Deity, and the Heavenly Court's Immortals and Gods value their authority the most."
Gu An looked down at the Immortal Seeking Daoist and asked, "So, what do you want to say?"
The Immortal Seeking Daoist replied, "If Fellow Daoist can obtain the Heavenly Dao Immortal Rank before the Heavenly Court notices, with your Dao, even if you are punished, you won't suffer too much loss."
"Is it easy to find the Heavenly Dao Immortal Rank?"
"To be honest, I have the opportunity for the Heavenly Dao Immortal Rank."
"No need. You should leave. Your presence here is a threat to me and this Grand Thousand Worlds."
Gu An's response made the Immortal Seeking Daoist smile bitterly. He immediately cupped his hands in a salute and then turned to leave. Not long after, his soul dissipated.
The Immortal Seeking Daoist's method of escaping this world was self-destruction.
Gu An wasn't deeply affected. Instead, he turned his gaze towards An Hao.
Celestial Sage was currently recreating the rules of the Grand Thousand Worlds, and he had a private intention—to pass on his Dao to An Hao. Even if it couldn't make An Hao's cultivation soar, it would help him cultivate better.
Gu An didn't stop him and wasn't afraid of Celestial Sage's tricks because he could sense that Celestial Sage's Cause and Effect was dissipating, and it wasn't an act.
However...
Gu An frowned slightly, and his gaze turned towards the depths of the universe.
As Celestial Sage recreated the Grand Thousand Worlds, the Heavenly Dao Fortune appeared out of thin air, following the Dao.
This made Gu An curious about the relationship between the Heavenly Dao and the Great Dao.
He had always assumed that the Heavenly Dao was weaker than the Great Dao, or that the Heavenly Dao was based on the Great Dao. Now, it seemed that this Heavenly Dao had a strength not inferior to the Great Dao.
Celestial Sage's figure completely disappeared, and An Hao's injuries also recovered.
An Hao looked around, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly. He also sensed the Heavenly Dao Fortune.
"Could it be that this wasn't the doing of the Heavenly Spirit Deity, and he just chose this moment to act?" An Hao muttered to himself.
His gaze turned towards Gu An.
Gu An felt his gaze and looked back.
Their eyes met, and Gu An understood An Hao's expression.
An Hao couldn't see Gu An's eyes, but being watched by Gu An made him feel at ease. He smiled.
Wasn't this the moment he had been most looking forward to?
"You should think it through. The lives you save will eventually die, and the Grand Thousand Worlds will eventually return to normal," Gu An's voice entered An Hao's ears.
An Hao smiled and asked, "Master, how many of the lives you've saved are still alive? They will eventually die, and yet you still took action?"
Gu An asked, "Can you bear to let go of An Xin? What about your wife and children? Can you truly sever all ties?"
"Didn't you make arrangements for me? The only one I owe is you. I've lived for nearly ten thousand years, and I've never repaid you. I've only caused you worry..."
An Hao looked at Gu An, his face filled with guilt.
Gu An really wanted to say that it was just a simple task for him, and it wasn't that troublesome. But looking at An Hao's expression, he knew that no matter what he said, it wouldn't change An Hao's decision.
Gu An was currently very strong, but not strong enough. He couldn't free the Grand Thousand Worlds from the Heavenly Dao, and at the very least, he couldn't make the world develop according to his wishes.
However, Gu An felt relieved that An Hao could shoulder such responsibility. He couldn't change this outcome, but he could leave a path for An Hao's survival.
Gu An turned around and disappeared into the void.
More and more divine thoughts and divine awareness swept in, and although they could lock onto An Hao, they dared not approach.
The previous battle had chilled them to the bone. Although they hadn't seen clearly what had happened, the sword shadows of the Eternal Boundless Divine Sword and the spectacle of the Heavenly Eye Dao Art's giant eye made them shudder even now when they thought about it.
Even if it was the Dao Treasury Freedom Immortal or the Profound Origin Freedom Immortal facing the previous battle, they would also feel like they could be annihilated at any moment.
An Hao looked towards the Heavenly Spirit Great World, his gaze filled with longing. He slowly raised his arms and muttered, "Yang Xian Emperor, let me take up the task you left unfinished."
...
Inside the Primordial Dao Ground, An Xin, Tian Yao'er, Chen Chuan, and the others hadn't had their magical powers and energy drained by the Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable. They were discussing the battle situation the entire time.
Gu An suddenly appeared beside An Xin. Upon seeing his appearance, everyone immediately surrounded him.
"Master, did you intervene?"
They asked one after another, each of them curious and excited. With the protection of the Primordial Dao Ground, they hadn't truly felt the oppressive atmosphere from the outside world.
Gu An looked towards the heavenly thunderclouds and said, "You will never see those two again."
Upon hearing these words, everyone froze. Their excitement was immediately extinguished, and subconsciously, they looked towards An Xin.
They weren't familiar with Zhu Xi, they only knew that An Xin and An Hao shared a bond like family.
An Xin also stood there, not breaking down emotionally. Instead, she looked at Gu An and asked, "Master, have you seen him?"
"Mm."
"Then let it be."
An Xin remained calm, and Gu An didn't say more. He turned to look at the others and said, "A new era is about to arrive. The world will become infinitely vast. From now on, you will no longer survive in the Great World, but in the Grand Thousand Worlds."
Grand Thousand Worlds!
Everyone was stunned. They believed Gu An's words and began to imagine the vastness of the Grand Thousand Worlds.
An Shengtian also felt a bit dazed. Although he had already severed the cause and effect with An Hao, he had always been looking forward to meeting An Hao.
Would they truly never meet again from now on?
"Look!"
Tian Qing suddenly pointed towards the sky and exclaimed. Everyone turned to look, and they saw a rapidly growing sun in the sky.
Tian Yao'er was about to ask Gu An, but suddenly, an unimaginable force descended from the heavens, causing everyone to feel dazed.
Gu An looked up and saw An Hao's figure slowly disappearing.
An Hao chose the same path as his father, the Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable.
The Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable chose to sacrifice himself to reshape the order of the Grand Thousand Worlds, while An Hao chose to sacrifice himself to reassemble the shattered Grand Thousand Worlds.
The reason An Hao could accomplish this was because he had obtained the Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable's path. He had become the controller of the Grand Thousand Worlds, and for the sake of the common people's early passage through the tribulations set by the Heavenly Dao, he chose to sacrifice himself.
In this calamity, Zhu Xi was sent out of the universe by the Seek Immortal Daoist, the Celestial Spirit Immortal was captured, and the Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable and An Hao consecutively fell.
At first glance, it seemed there were no winners.
Gu An sighed at the workings of fate, and at the same time, he looked forward to the new Grand Thousand Worlds.
No matter what, this tribulation was just a node in his life. He still needed to strive to become stronger. One day, he would no longer be able to hide, and he would need to face the might of the Heavenly Court.
When that day came, whether he would compromise or make other plans would depend on his cultivation level.
Gu An retracted his gaze and walked towards his own pavilion.
As for the frozen crowd, they wouldn't come to harm. Gu An deliberately allowed An Hao's power to enter the Primordial Dao Ground, letting them quickly pass through the upcoming tribulation like ordinary people. When they woke up, they would only think that they had experienced a dream.
Gu An suddenly looked towards a direction, his eyes filled with surprise.
Everything in the world was frozen by An Hao's power, but Shen Zhen was unaffected. She was still in her room, diligently working.
Gu An sensed a unique aura from Shen Zhen's body, an aura he couldn't decipher.
This made him even more curious. What kind of path had Shen Zhen entered?
Just as Gu An was pondering, a blinding light that stripped the world of its colors descended from the heavens, engulfing his figure and the space between heaven and earth.
