Chapter 612: The Golden Extremity God
Chapter 612: The Golden Extremity God
Gu An watched as Zhu Xi left that void, and he used his own Dao Intent to open a passage for her that spanned across the universe.
Although Zhu Xi had already been a Saint before becoming his disciple, they had spent many years together. Helping her was something he wouldn't hesitate to do.
Of course, the reason he dared to act was that he wasn't afraid of the Ziwei Emperor.
Not only that, but even when he followed the cause and effect of the Ziwei Immortal Emperor, Gu An didn't sense any danger. However, he was still wary of the Heavenly Court, so he didn't directly confront the Ziwei Immortal Emperor.
His Destiny Pen and Infinite Sword Tome could kill enemies from afar. Over tens of thousands of years, besides refining Dao artifacts, he had also been strengthening the Destiny Pen and Infinite Sword Tome.
Some things could be left unused, but they couldn't be too weak.
During his invincible years, Gu An liked to imagine himself facing enemies.
He would even envision himself against the entire Heavenly Court.
A figure appeared beside Gu An; it was his senior disciple, Zhuxing Lan, from the Human Peak.
Tens of thousands of years was a long time for mortals, but for a cultivator from a major sect like Human Peak, it wasn't too long. After all these years, Zhuxing Lan still treated Gu An with respect and conducted himself in an orderly manner, so Gu An would occasionally give him guidance.
However, the two were not truly master and disciple, and Gu An didn't want to formally accept him as a disciple.
"Master, the Dao Court has invited Human Peak to participate in the discussion for the second time. The main peak wants you to go there as well," Zhuxing Lan said respectfully.
Gu An had always maintained the first-level cultivation of the Human Peak. Not only was he highly respected, but his residence, the Peak of Fixing Heaven, had also become the second most important peak after the main peak.
"I need to travel around. I'll see if I can make it to the Dao Court when the time comes. If I can make it, that's good. If not, it won't matter if I'm not there," Gu An replied casually.
Zhuxing Lan smiled helplessly, but he didn't dare to insist.
Over the years, Gu An had always been like this, without any selfish motives. It seemed that he had seen through everything, and his choice of the Human Peak was probably due to Bai Ziyue's invitation, which he casually accepted.
Zhuxing Lan began to chat about other matters. In this era, countless geniuses were emerging. The ancient great cultivators couldn't keep up with the young generation's brilliance. With each rise of an unparalleled genius, the world would create various myths and legends, portraying these geniuses as incarnations of Heavenly Court's gods and immortals.
Take Tian Hao, for example; the followers of the Heavenly Dao claimed that he was the reincarnation of Xuan Su Xian Jun, the most powerful immortal god undergoing trials in the mortal world.
Zhuxing Lan also admired the brilliance of these unparalleled geniuses. In the past ten thousand years, he had been trying to find an unparalleled genius for the Peak of Fixing Heaven.
Unfortunately, he had found many talented individuals, but none could compare to the top geniuses in the world.
Gu An merely listened; he wasn't in the mood to help the Human Peak find unparalleled geniuses.
After ensuring Zhu Xi's safety, he finally withdrew his thoughts and headed downhill, accompanied by Zhuxing Lan, who wanted to talk to him more.
Even after spending tens of thousands of years together, Zhuxing Lan still didn't know Gu An's origins. Before joining the Human Peak, where had Gu An come from? This was something he had always been curious about.
Because of his curiosity, he had high expectations of Gu An.
He hoped that Gu An would bring surprises to the Human Peak.
Unfortunately, this time, he was still disappointed.
After staying at the Human Peak for half a day, Gu An returned to the Primordial Dao Ground.
...
Deep in the universe, at the boundary gate.
The Celestial Spirit Deity, who was meditating in front of the boundary gate, suddenly opened his eyes and stood up, facing the gate.
The boundary gate burst with brilliant light, and vast Heavenly Dao energy surged out, like a thick fog dissipating, creating an awe-inspiring scene.
Amidst the grand Heavenly Dao flames, a figure stepped out from within the boundary gate.
This was a tall figure clad in golden heavy armor, his aura no weaker than the Celestial Spirit Deity. The armor he wore contrasted sharply with the Celestial Spirit Deity's silver armor, and the light they emitted was equally dazzling, standing in stark opposition to each other.
"Long time no see, Celestial Spirit Deity," the golden-armored man stopped and stood before the boundary gate, gazing at the Celestial Spirit Deity. He spoke, his voice like thunder, causing the surrounding Heavenly Dao flames to tremble.
The Celestial Spirit Deity's face remained expressionless as he asked, "Golden Extremity Deity, why have you left your Vast Universe to come to our world?"
Golden Extremity Deity raised his right hand, and in his palm appeared a golden token with two words inscribed on it.
Mystic Abode!
The Celestial Spirit Deity's gaze didn't waver. He continued, "Mystic Abode Immortal Lord's boldness is truly remarkable."
Golden Extremity Deity coldly harrumphed, "That's none of your concern. Even your former master, the Purple Microcosm Immortal Emperor, is not allowed to inquire about the Immortal Lord's affairs."
The Celestial Spirit Deity remained silent for a moment before slowly turning around and stepping aside for Golden Extremity Deity.
Golden Extremity Deity took a step forward and walked past the Celestial Spirit Deity. Golden light merged with silver, and flames seemed to surge between them.
After taking ten steps forward, Golden Extremity Deity halted. He slightly tilted his head, glancing at the Celestial Spirit Deity from the corner of his eye, and said, "The Immortal Lord admires you. Back in the Immortal Emperor's palace, he recognized your potential, which far surpassed that of a Celestial Deity. You can go much further."
"After this matter is concluded, I will be promoted to the rank of Heavenly Dao Star Lord. You will have time to consider, and when I return here, give me your answer."
With that, he vanished into thin air, leaving only traces of golden flames lingering.
The Celestial Spirit Deity watched Golden Extremity Deity's departing figure, his eyes filled with disdain. He returned to his meditation spot.
...
Time passed, and a hundred years went by in the blink of an eye.
Within the Primordial Dao Ground.
Halfway up the mountain, Gu An sat on a tree branch, guiding An Xin in her cultivation of unique abilities. His gaze, however, was fixed on the Golden Extremity Deity who had descended a hundred years ago.
This Golden Extremity Deity possessed the cultivation base of a late-stage Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal, and he was on the verge of breaking through to the pinnacle of perfection.
After arriving in the mortal realm, Golden Extremity Deity didn't cause much of a stir. He traveled across the mortal world, creating secret realms and divine statues, leaving behind legacies, and guiding some exceptionally talented beings. These beings developed a connection with the Heavenly Dao's fortune, all thanks to his guidance.
As Golden Extremity Deity hadn't committed any evil deeds, Gu An had no reason to take action against him.
Perhaps there was a scheme at play orchestrated by the Heavenly Court, but for these beings, it was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, one that could change their lives.
The Mystic Abode Immortal Lord seemed to want to turn the Celestial Spirit Grand World into a realm that worshipped him.
The reason he didn't appear in person was probably to avoid displeasing the Heavenly Court.
"Do the deities of the Heavenly Court also rely on mortals to enhance their fortune?" Gu An found this intriguing.
The path of fortune had existed since ancient times, where the collective fate of a group of people could be gathered to foster a more powerful protective force.
Gu An had already foreseen Golden Extremity Deity's future. If he didn't intervene, Golden Extremity Deity's arrogance would lead him to be challenged by the pride of this realm. After repeated suppressions, Golden Extremity Deity would grow increasingly impatient and harsh in his treatment of others, which would tarnish his image in the eyes of the masses. This would also indirectly affect the Mystic Abode Immortal Lord.
In the end, Golden Extremity Deity would be captured by a force from beyond the heavens, providing closure to the mortals.
Golden Extremity Deity, Purple Microcosm Immortal Emperor, Mystic Abode Immortal Lord...
Gu An felt the veil of mystery surrounding the Heavenly Court slowly lifting before him, but he still couldn't fathom just how powerful the Heavenly Court truly was.
He sensed that deities like the Celestial Spirit Deity and Golden Extremity Deity were likely the lowest-ranked beings in the Heavenly Dao's hierarchy.
For a universe as vast as the Celestial Spirit Grand World to be controlled by the lowest-ranked Celestial Deity, even if the Three Thousand Grand Worlds were to join forces, they would pose no threat to the Heavenly Court.
"Master, why is this Calamity Fate so difficult to cultivate? Is it the path of fate or the path of cause and effect?" An Xin's voice rose from below, prompting Gu An to turn and look at her.
Gu An replied, "It will become the type of Great Dao that you wish it to be."
He was teaching her not only the Calamity Fate technique but also the cultivation method of the Immortal Emperor Eye, wanting to see if An Xin could master it.
