Chapter 646: Gu An's Reincarnation
Chapter 646: Gu An's Reincarnation
A mysterious force sweeping across the vast universe, should the Heavenly Court have noticed it by now?
Gu An pondered silently, although he wasn't sure where the Heavenly Court was, with his increasing interactions with the Xian Shen, he felt their presence everywhere, and the Heavenly Court's power was domineering, disregarding the wishes of all beings.
Gu An wasn't overly concerned about the mysterious force either.
Even if it affected the Heavenly Spirit Grand World, it was just a trial for all living beings, as long as it didn't endanger him.
Time passed.
By the time the food had gone cold, Jiang Qiong's attention finally shifted away from the array scroll.
She looked at Gu An and sighed, "Is this really an array created by humans? It's too vast and intricate, and from the described effects, it seems as terrifying as the rules of heaven and earth."
She felt that if this array were to be leaked, it would undoubtedly stir up a storm. If someone else had given it to her, she wouldn't dare to accept it.
"It'll take a long time to cultivate. You should try to comprehend it yourself," Gu An said with a light smile.
What he provided wasn't just an array; it contained profound Daoist principles for Jiang Qiong to comprehend for millions of years.
Jiang Qiong nodded and put the scroll into her storage ring. As she looked at Gu An, her eyes filled with admiration, and her emotions were intense. She sighed, "The things you've given me are becoming increasingly difficult to repay. To be honest, I feel quite pressured."
"Then, will you return it to me?" Gu An asked, slightly annoyed. Did he not know Jiang Qiong well enough? This woman was trying to flirt with him!
Jiang Qiong laughed, "That's not possible. It's already been given."
She changed the topic and began to talk about the events within the JuHua Sect, being the eldest within the sect, her tone naturally took on a senior's perspective, giving Gu An the feeling of chatting about family matters.
Gu An didn't find it boring; on the contrary, he listened with great interest and occasionally asked questions.
Half a quarter of an hour later.
"By the way, do you still remember Lu Lingjun? She used to stay in your Third Herb Valley. She's an ascender and has established the Ascension Gate, which is already quite stable..." Jiang Qiong's tone became cheerful as she mentioned Lu Lingjun, and at the same time, she observed Gu An's expression.
She remembered that a long time ago, An Xing had told her that Lu Lingjun wanted to take Gu An as her Dao companion.
Ever since Gu An's true identity was exposed, Lu Lingjun seemed to have cut off contact with him, not because Gu An avoided her, but because she didn't dare to meet him.
Jiang Qiong had also interacted with Lu Lingjun over the years and felt that Lu Lingjun had an innate arrogance. This woman seemed unable to accept that Gu An was such a powerful existence.
However, Jiang Qiong suspected that Lu Lingjun's survival to the present day and the development of the Ascension Gate might have been secretly aided by Gu An.
After she finished describing Lu Lingjun's situation, she couldn't discern anything from Gu An's expression.
Gu An seemed completely uninterested in Lu Lingjun.
Gu An smiled and said, "As expected, chatting with you is quite interesting. I can't see these things within Nothingness."
Jiang Qiong, seeing that he wasn't interested in Lu Lingjun, asked, "Do you usually cultivate? Aren't you bored?"
"My life is far more interesting than you think," Gu An said proudly.
Jiang Qiong raised her eyebrows, not believing him.
Gu An laughed, "For me, thirteen million years pass much slower than for you. Just take the past hundred years, for example. I served as a bodyguard for a human emperor for sixty years and assisted four dynasties..."
He was telling the truth. In recent million years, he enjoyed experiencing various identities in the mortal world. Except when picking medicinal herbs, he would use his true form and wouldn't use his spell power. He would get injured and grow old in each identity.
Wasn't this a form of reincarnation? Jiang Qiong never expected that Gu An would do such a thing. The thought of an all-powerful being who could overturn the entire universe fighting for power and profit among mortals seemed absurd yet intriguing to her.
Should I give it a try? After all, she doesn't need to personally manage the JuHua Sect now.
The following is Gu An's story, as heard by Jiang Qiong. The more she listened, the more she felt that Gu An's actions were not out of boredom, but a form of cultivation.
...
The sun shone brightly, and the sky was clear and cloudless.
Above the mountains, numerous cultivators rode on their swords, swift as lightning, creating a grand and awe-inspiring formation as they gathered, causing the surrounding forests to shake violently.
Within this crowd, there were two young men riding side by side.
The youth in black turned his head to look at his companion and asked excitedly, "Long Lin, what kind of monster do you think we'll encounter this time?"
The youth known as Long Lin wore a fitted blue robe, and his appearance was even more handsome than the youth in black, with an extraordinary demeanor.
Long Lin looked ahead and smiled, saying, "I heard it's a million-year-old monster; otherwise, the sect wouldn't have sent so many disciples."
"A million-year-old monster? How terrifying is that?" The black-clad youth suddenly became worried.
Long Lin glanced at him and smiled, "Yang Nian, if you're scared, it's not too late to turn back now."
Upon hearing this, the black-clad youth named Yang Nian widened his eyes and said, "How could I possibly be scared! I'm just worried about the other disciples. If we lose this battle, the consequences are unimaginable."
Long Lin turned his gaze back to the front and smiled without speaking.
It wasn't just them; other Changyang Sect disciples around them were also discussing the upcoming battle.
The newest and youngest disciple said, "In six days, the book will be released, right? I can't wait to read it!"
The Changyang Sect had been established for thousands of years and was considered a hegemon on the continent. However, they had never dealt with a million-year-old monster before.
"By the way, Long Lin, I heard from Senior Brother that your family found you? Is that true?" Yang Nian asked curiously.
Both he and Long Lin had been orphans since childhood, raised by an old man in the mountains. Later, by chance, they joined the Changyang Sect. Long Lin was discovered to have an excellent spiritual root, and his current achievements were also thanks to Long Lin's support.
He never expected that Long Lin wasn't an orphan and had family members searching for him. He felt both envious and happy for Long Lin.
"Yes, they said my parents didn't abandon me. They were just carrying out a mission and encountered difficulties, so they had to leave me in a certain place. The jade pendant my parents left me is actually a high-level spell tool, which is why my family could find me. They want me to go back, and I'm still considering it."
Long Lin replied calmly.
Yang Nian asked further, "Is your family powerful? How do they compare to the Changyang Sect?"
"They should be powerful. They've already convinced the sect's higher-ups, who seem to have gained significant benefits and are strongly urging me to return."
Long Lin's answer made Yang Nian even more envious.
Why didn't he have such a background? Before cultivation, he was the one protecting Long Lin, but ever since they started cultivating, everything had reversed, and now Long Lin was taking care of him.
Yang Nian was grateful to Long Lin, but deep down, he couldn't help feeling jealous.
He felt that heaven favored Long Lin, always letting him encounter good things, while he was alone and helpless. Even with Long Lin's help, he still faced troubles.
"Since that's the case, what are you still considering?" Yang Nian forced down his jealousy and asked with a forced smile.
"Let's think about how to fight first."
Long Lin didn't answer Yang Nian and changed the subject.
The reason for his hesitation was that the Long family did not accept outsiders into their clan.
Over the years, he could sense Yang Nian's changing attitude, and he didn't want to use this matter to provoke Yang Nian.
But...
When he thought of what the clan member had said, Long Lin's eyes couldn't help but reveal a longing.
He had heard that the Long family had immortals, who were transcendent beings above the Great Vehicle Realm.
