Chapter 628: The Emperor's Trial
Chapter 628: The Emperor's Trial
Facing the encirclement of the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong, Gu An's demonic shadow remained calm, as if he had known of their arrival beforehand.
He didn't respond to Zi Long Xing Jun, feeling that Zi Long Xing Jun was not worthy of conversing with him, and at this point, there was no room for misunderstandings.
The target of the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong was Tianhao, and as his master, Gu An naturally had to step forward.
Moreover, the strife between deities would affect the mortal realm, and although Gu An didn't want to play the role of a savior, if he encountered a calamity that the mortals couldn't resolve, he would not hesitate to intervene.
This was his reward for seizing so many lifespans in this secluded realm.
Gu An turned and faced Zi Long Xing Jun.
The immortal lights of the other seventy-one Jin Dong Immortals converged, forming a grand formation beyond the mortal realm, manipulating the rules of the Great Dao and suppressing Gu An in an intangible manner.
Zi Long Xing Jun was a Taiqing Jinxian, while the other Jin Dong Immortals were all Heng Tian Jinxian. The formation they had formed had surpassed the limits of what a Taiqing Jinxian could endure, and although it was not enough to suppress a Kaitian Daluo Xian, it was sufficient to sweep away all existence below the Daluo Daoguo realm.
"This formation is the Jin Dong Absolute Immortal Formation. No one can escape it unless they are a Daluo Xian!"
One of the Jin Dong Immortals spoke with an arrogant tone.
Why would a Daluo Xian come to this realm?
If their target was the same as theirs, why would they stay in the Heavenly Spirit Grand World? They could have taken the person they were looking for long ago.
The distant cultivators, Xiantian humans, and demons watched anxiously, not daring to move.
Tianhao, Yuan Song Zi, Lu Xian, Tian Xiao'er, and others were curious about the Daluo Xian. Only the members of Nothingness had heard of this name from Gu An's writings, and they secretly acknowledged that the stories in his books were not entirely fabricated but were indeed mythical tales that had occurred in the past.
Zhu Guang Han stared at the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong, his face changing drastically as if he had thought of something. He became extremely uneasy and wanted to flee the place.
With the deployment of the Jin Dong Absolute Immortal Formation, those outside the formation could only sense its majestic aura and not directly feel the suppression. But just by looking at the immortal light of the formation, they felt their insignificance, as if a mere touch of the immortal light would make them vanish into thin air.
Gu An's demonic shadow still didn't speak; he was waiting for Xuan Su Xian Jun or Taiyi Xian Jun.
Based on the causal reasoning, the two Xian Jun were unlikely to take action, at least not in the short term.
Gu An looked at the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong, contemplating how to deal with them.
Killing them would not be a permanent solution, as even if they were destroyed, they could be resurrected through the Heavenly Dao.
However, they could be sealed like the Celestial Spirit Deity, preventing their resurrection and subjecting them to torment.
Seeing Gu An's refusal to speak, the Jin Dong Immortals became furious. One of them, a tall and robust Jin Dong Immortal, spoke up, "Big Brother, kill him! Since the person we seek is right before us, why hesitate? We are Xian Shen!"
As Xian Shen, they had absolute confidence.
Achieving immortality meant eternal life, and they only feared other Xian Shen.
They were unafraid of facing those with higher cultivation levels who were not Xian Shen.
The Heavenly Court was their ultimate backing!
Over the long years, they had endured countless hardships and experienced all kinds of situations.
Zi Long Xing Jun gave Gu An a deep look and nodded slightly. Seeing this, the seventy-one Jin Dong Immortals immediately took action, simultaneously unleashing their divine abilities. The immortal light on their bodies expanded rapidly, and the elements of wind, fire, thunder, and rain erupted, engulfing Gu An's demonic shadow in an instant.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
The Jin Dong Absolute Immortal Formation erupted with deafening roars, dazzling lights flashed, making it difficult to see the specifics inside the formation, but they could truly sense the terrifying aura of the formation.
Yuan Song Zi, Tianhao, and others retreated instinctively, an impulse that couldn't be overridden by rationality, including Zhu Guang Han, who was at the Luo Tian Zai Zai Xian realm.
The onlookers' eyes widened, reflecting the immortal light of the Jin Dong Immortal Array, their pupils trembling.
They could no longer see Gu An's figure, but the aura emanating from the array was enough to make everything seem fragile.
They couldn't fathom the destruction that such a terrifying aura would bring if it descended upon the Heavenly Spirit Grand World. The spectators, all grand cultivators, felt that such an aura could turn the world to ashes, as they themselves couldn't withstand it.
Even outside the array, the situation was dire; what about inside?
Just as this thought crossed everyone's mind, the Jin Dong Immortal Array suddenly dispersed, revealing Gu An's figure. He raised his hand and grabbed, and the seventy-two Jin Dong Immortals turned into seventy-two golden lights, flying into his hand, shrinking rapidly and disappearing from sight.
Gu An clenched his fist, and on his face, hidden by demonic energy, two purple lights appeared. The surrounding void suddenly changed, and the crimson world reappeared, making everyone feel as if they had traveled through time.
By the time they regained their senses, Gu An had vanished.
The world fell silent, and the sounds from the Jin Dong Immortal Array gradually faded.
Even Lu Xian and Tian Xiao'er were left stunned.
They had expected an earth-shattering battle but never imagined it would end so quickly.
Zhu Guang Han hovered in mid-air, his entire being immersed in a daze.
Suddenly, he didn't know what to do.
Not a mistake, a poem, a shot, a container, a six, a nine, a book, a bar, a look!
The Dao Court cultivators turned their gazes to him, equally clueless about what to do, as they knew they couldn't defeat Zhu Guang Han.
...
The sky was vast and blue, and the sea of clouds was pristine white, with a rainbow hanging at the horizon.
Below the rainbow, there was a small pavilion floating above the clouds, where two Daoists were playing a game that resembled Weiqi, but the pieces were not black and white.
One of them, a white-haired man with a handsome face, had his eyes covered by a silver silk headband. On his forehead was a golden pattern, and he wore an immaculate white Daoist robe. Behind him hovered a scroll, emitting a radiant painting of floating mountains and rivers.
He was none other than Taiyi Immortal Lord.
Taiyi Immortal Lord's right hand held two fingers on a piece, contemplating without making a move.
Sitting across from him was a yellow-robed Daoist with an aged face, his hair a mix of black and white. His eyebrows and eyes exuded authority, and around him, several thin, long scarves seemed to float. Behind his head, a faint shadow hovered, resembling two mysterious and majestic divine beasts intertwining.
The yellow-robed Daoist spoke, "Are you truly going to intervene in the affairs of the Celestial Throne? There are countless Celestial Emperors, why pay so much attention to one who has been exiled? Even sending the seventy-two Jin Dong Immortals."
Taiyi Immortal Lord replied, "Indeed, there are many Celestial Emperors, and many have been exiled. But he is different. He was once deeply favored, and now he has fallen into reincarnation. In my eyes, this is not an exile but a trial. If it were a true exile, there would be no need to conceal the secrets of heaven."
The yellow-robed Daoist shook his head and chuckled.
Taiyi Immortal Lord placed his piece, saying, "Many Celestial Emperors have ascended to the Supreme Divine Palace, but only he could do so at birth. I will never forget the scene of ten thousand immortals surrounding him."
The yellow-robed Daoist joked, "For this, you're willing to contend with Xuan Su Xian Jun? You should know that Xuan Su Xian Jun has a powerful backer."
"As long as it doesn't violate the Heavenly Rules, what difference does the size of the backer make?" Taiyi Immortal Lord retorted.
Suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed, and the golden pattern on his forehead glowed.
The yellow-robed Daoist picked up a piece and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
Taiyi Immortal Lord paused for a moment and said, "The seventy-two Jin Dong Immortals have failed. The one who made the move has unfathomable cultivation, and they couldn't probe the depth of his abilities. The only certainty is that he doesn't possess the Heavenly Court's karma."
The yellow-robed Daoist's interest was piqued, and he smiled, "It's rare to find someone daring enough to oppose the Heavenly Court."
