Chapter 609: Manipulating Destiny
Chapter 609: Manipulating Destiny
In the causality deduction, the existence that Tian Hao couldn't defeat appeared blurry, but Gu An could see it through his Mind's Eye.
That guy's appearance was different from his, but his intuition told him that this was his projection body.
After escaping Tian Hao, the projection body turned and jumped into the Reincarnation Sea of the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain, entering reincarnation and disappearing from sight.
【Begin gathering the projection body】
【Begin inheriting the comprehension of the Great Dao】
Two prompts popped up, interrupting Gu An's thoughts. He vanished into thin air and appeared at the edge of the Primordial Dao Ground, where he began inheriting the comprehension of the Great Dao.
Soon, an unusual disturbance occurred within the Primordial Dao Ground, startling everyone.
Since this wasn't the first time such a situation had occurred, the disciples of the Primordial Dao Ground merely glanced in Gu An's direction and continued their cultivation. No one disturbed Gu An.
...
Under the starry sky, Tian Hao, dressed in golden robes, stood by the seaside, gazing at the dark waves ahead. He furrowed his brows, deep in thought.
A figure descended from the sky and landed beside him—none other than the Sun Moon Dark Emperor.
The two had interacted quite a bit, and their relationship was relatively good.
"Are you still thinking about that person?" The Sun Moon Dark Emperor asked.
Tian Hao took a deep breath and, looking ahead, replied, "Yes, for the first time, I felt pressure from someone of the same realm."
The Sun Moon Dark Emperor consoled him, "Even if he's of the same realm, he's definitely much older than you, and he didn't defeat you. Why worry about it?"
In his opinion, Tian Hao already possessed the strongest talent, and he had witnessed the previous great battle. The opponent was indeed formidable, but Tian Hao didn't lose; it was just a draw.
This battle between the two made the Sun Moon Dark Emperor doubt himself.
The battle of the Mystic Immortal had made even him, a Divine Consciousness True Immortal, feel terrified.
Could it be that he, a genius from the old era, had been surpassed?
He felt that Tian Hao would eventually surpass him, and this would happen sooner than he had anticipated.
"I'm not dwelling on it; I'm excited. I'm replaying his combat techniques in my mind. He didn't rely on many unique abilities or spells but purely on his mana and physical strength to challenge me, exuding a momentum of overpowering all with a single force."
Tian Hao sighed sincerely, feeling exhilarated.
Indeed, his master's words rang true: never underestimate the world, for you never know where a powerful cultivator with great fortune might appear.
Although his talent might be the best, he had lived for too short a time and still needed to enhance his cultivation methods.
The Sun Moon Dark Emperor listened to Tian Hao's words, opening his mouth but unsure what to say. He couldn't understand Tian Hao's thoughts.
"What are your plans now? You've obtained what you wanted," the Sun Moon Dark Emperor asked.
When faced with a genius like Tian Hao, he chose to befriend him wholeheartedly, sensing that this friendship might save his life in the future.
Tian Hao withdrew his gaze and looked at the Sun Moon Dark Emperor, smiling. "I plan to return. The fact that I couldn't sweep through those of the same realm means my combat abilities are still insufficient. I'll go into seclusion for some cultivation and then venture out again. If you ever come to the Nine Spirits Continent, you can find me, and I won't mistreat you."
The Sun Moon Dark Emperor smiled, as this was the promise he wanted from Tian Hao, proving that Tian Hao was still willing to maintain their friendship.
Then, Tian Hao cupped his fists in a salute to the Sun Moon Dark Emperor and transformed into a beam of light, soaring into the sky and quickly disappearing at the edge of the world.
The Sun Moon Dark Emperor watched the direction of Tian Hao's departure, a hint of envy on his face.
After living for so many years, he had never experienced the freedom that Tian Hao had.
This was how cultivators should live—roaming freely through the heavens and earth, unbound by anything.
Immediately, the Sun Moon Dark Emperor smiled self-mockingly. The reason he was bound to the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain was because his talent wasn't enough, and he needed the power of the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain to help him gather cultivation resources.
He used to think his cultivation speed was quite fast, but now it felt slow. He was eager to reach the Freedom Immortal Realm.
A ridiculous thought crossed his mind.
He felt that Tian Hao might reach the Freedom Immortal Realm even faster than him.
After a while, a figure descended beside the Sun Moon Dark Emperor. It was a mysterious cultivator enveloped in black energy. He spoke in a deep voice, "Dark Emperor, Her Majesty has left. She said she's going beyond the heavens to pursue the Great Dao, and from now on, you will lead the Reincarnation Realm."
The Sun Moon Dark Emperor's thoughts were interrupted. Upon hearing the other's words, he couldn't help but feel astonished.
Pursuing the Great Dao beyond the heavens?
...
Inside the Primordial Dao Ground.
Gu An opened his eyes, his gaze filled with oppression. He had inherited the comprehension of the power of the Great Dao from the three thousand projection bodies.
His entire being underwent a metamorphosis, and his physical and mana strength rapidly increased. This enhancement didn't require the absorption of spiritual energy but was aided by the invisible and colorless power of the Great Dao.
He sensed that the projected body that had infiltrated the reincarnation had disappeared, as if it had never existed.
This completely put him at ease, although there were many projected bodies, they indeed left no traces.
He began to carefully perceive the Great Dao of Strength.
Merely by comprehending the Great Dao of Strength, his mana surged, and his strength improved by leaps and bounds, reaching the Open Heaven Great Immortal Realm.
The pure increase in mana made him feel wonderful, and he knew this decision was right.
The sun set and the moon rose.
Days flew by.
Ten days later, Gu An stood up. He first went to various places to collect mature medicinal herbs. After finishing the harvest, he returned to Shen Zhen's side.
Shen Zhen had painted a new scene, depicting the Celestial Spirit Deity kneeling before an immortal.
This immortal was an old Daoist with a noble bearing, bathed in a radiant glow behind him. In front of this immortal, the Celestial Spirit Deity lost its usual domineering and awe-inspiring aura.
Gu An raised an eyebrow. Shen Zhen could now dig into the Celestial Spirit Deity's cause and effect through her paintings.
"Don't draw recklessly, or you might attract the attention of beings even I can't defend against," Gu An warned.
Shen Zhen snapped back to her senses. When she realized what she had painted, her face paled, and she quickly burned the scroll with a flame from her fingertip.
After doing this, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She turned to look at Gu An and said apologetically, "I got too engrossed earlier; it wasn't intentional."
She also felt a sense of fear in her heart.
