Chapter 648: 50,000 Million Years of Lifespan!
"Senior, do you know who is fighting outside?" asked Ji Xiao Yu, noticing Yuan Song Zi's expression.
She appeared calm, but her heart was filled with fear. Just sensing the battle aura from afar, she felt a chilling sense of horror.
On the Great Dao Path, to dare fight so recklessly was an act of great arrogance. The path was fraught with countless dangers, and drawing such attention would only invite trouble.
The reason she cooperated with the Dao Court was to seek their help in setting up barriers to prevent her aura from being exposed to other Tian Jiao.
Yuan Song Zi took a deep breath and said, "One of them is from Flying to the Yellow Sky, named Zhou Jie. This person has slaughtered countless lives and attained the path through killing. If he detects our aura, we will all die."
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled, including Xiao Lan, who could no longer maintain her composure.
Ji Xiao Yu's eyebrows furrowed as she knew about Flying to the Yellow Sky, a terrifying Dao Tradition that even involved reincarnation.
"However, Zhou Jie's opponent is also very strong. Perhaps they will leave soon, so there's no need to panic. After all, the formation of this temple is quite exquisite." Yuan Song Zi continued, easing the tension among the group, but everyone remained vigilant.
Xiao Lan looked at the others, feeling a deep sense of emotion.
These seniors held a lofty position in the Heavenly Spirit Grand World, wielding the power over life and death of all living beings. Yet, on the Great Dao Path, they were as insignificant as dust, trembling and acting with utmost caution.
The group held their breath, afraid to speak, as if even their voices might disturb the terrifying presence outside.
However, the battle pressure drew closer, as if the combatants were approaching them. Even Yuan Song Zi began to break into a sweat.
Suddenly, the battle pressure surged and disappeared into the distance within moments, further heightening the tension among the group.
After a long while, half an hour passed, and everyone finally relaxed, believing the combatants had left.
They gathered around Yuan Song Zi, inquiring about Flying to the Yellow Sky.
Ji Xiao Yu glanced at Xiao Lan, her eyes filled with complexity, deep in thought.
...
Time flew by, and the years passed swiftly.
As the eerie power invaded the Heavenly Spirit Grand World, more and more creatures became violent, leading to increasing conflicts among humans.
None of this affected Gu An's life, as he continued to enjoy his leisurely days. He would, however, spare a thought for his old acquaintances, including those on the Great Dao Path. If they encountered danger, he would offer protection, but he would make it seem like luck.
One year after another passed swiftly.
After ten thousand years, peace had completely vanished from the mortal world. Conflicts erupted everywhere, even involving the Heaven and Earth Sect.
The boundless celestial canopy began to show scattered clouds.
Gu An still did not intervene to change this situation.
Another ten thousand years passed.
On a late summer's day, just after noon.
Gu An walked through the forest, checking his attribute panel.
【Name: Gu An】
【Lifespan: 161,845/5,048,752,108,241】
【Constitution: Unfathomable Reincarnation Indestructible Body】
【Cultivation: Perfected Great Dao Saint Realm】
...
50,000 million years of lifespan!
He hesitated, wondering if he should break through.
The last breakthrough had cost him 18,000 million years of lifespan, and he feared that 50,000 million years might not be enough to reach the next realm's perfection.
Gu An pondered as he walked at a steady pace, his robe fluttering in the forest breeze.
Looking up, the sky visible through the leaves appeared dim, more like dusk than noon.
After walking for a while, Gu An stopped in his tracks.
He stood by a small river, and on the other side, a figure knelt.
It was Emperor Tian Hong!
Emperor Tian Hong had been kneeling here for over fifty thousand years. Despite his long years of kneeling, he exuded no aura of decay. His long beard had fallen to the ground, and his face appeared clean and youthful. If not for his knees deeply embedded in the mud, one would never guess that he had knelt for so many years.
Even without absorbing Qi for cultivation, his cultivation had broken through to the Dao Xu Xuan Xian realm, solely through enlightenment.
It was worth mentioning that his breakthrough did not involve tribulation, causing not even a hint of disturbance.
"After kneeling for so long, what is your greatest feeling?"
Gu An's voice reached Emperor Tian Hong's ears, causing him to open his eyes wide.
When he saw Gu An, his entire being fell into a daze.
The latest chapter, the smallest chapter, the shortest chapter, the sixth chapter, the 69th chapter, the first chapter, is released!
Although he had never met Gu An before, for some reason, when he saw Gu An for the first time, he felt that the other party was Fu Dao Jian Zun.
In his eyes, Gu An's appearance was perfect. Although Gu An's temperament was not overpowering, it gave him a sense of a grand aura that could encompass all things.
Emperor Tian Hong had thought that his Dao-heart had been tempered by countless trials, and he would no longer experience intense emotional fluctuations. But at this moment, he couldn't control the excitement that burst forth from the depths of his heart.
His whole body trembled, and a thousand words and ten thousand sentences couldn't be spoken from his mouth.
Seeing Emperor Tian Hong's excitement, a smile appeared on Gu An's face. He smiled gently, like a spring breeze blowing from the mountain gorge into Emperor Tian Hong's heart, dissipating the tension and excitement within him.
Emperor Tian Hong took a deep breath and tried to adjust his emotions. He spoke cautiously, "My greatest feeling is that the mightiest Dao technique is not within a sect, but right here in the world, omnipresent."
"Perhaps the name 'Nothingness' is guiding all living beings?"
After saying this, Emperor Tian Hong's heart rose to his throat again, fearing that he had offended Fu Dao Jian Zun.
The longer he knelt, the more reverence he felt towards Gu An, because he could sense that it was Gu An who guided him to enlightenment.
Gu An smiled and said, "Perhaps, different people have different understandings. Do you want to take me as your master?"
Emperor Tian Hong widened his eyes and exclaimed excitedly, "Jian Zun, I do! I really do! Will you accept me?"
Gu An raised his right hand, and a sword flew out from his palm. It quickly grew in size, with its tip pointing upwards, hovering in front of him. This sword was exquisite and magnificent, emitting a faint silver light, as if adorned with stars within.
"This is the Nothingness Dao treasure, named the Longevity Sword. I lend it to you for use. Go out and save this world. When you become the savior, return this sword. At that time, you can decide whether to take me as your master or not."
As Gu An introduced the sword, the Longevity Sword flew towards Emperor Tian Hong.
Emperor Tian Hong could sense the vast Dao intent within the Longevity Sword, but he was not attracted by it. He turned to look at Gu An and said urgently, "I can make a decision now! I'm willing to take you as my master!"
Gu An spoke with profound meaning, "Wait until you have the greatest fame and the greatest power, and when you truly understand your fate, then make your decision. There's no need to rush. At that time, if you're willing, I will accept you."
After hearing this, Emperor Tian Hong calmed down.
"Go now."
Gu An continued, and upon hearing this, Emperor Tian Hong stood up, holding the Longevity Sword. In an instant, a vast memory flooded into his mind, causing him to freeze in place.
Seeing this, Gu An crossed the river and brushed past him.
"Go and break through," Gu An thought silently, facing away from Emperor Tian Hong.
Emperor Tian Hong also felt a sense of anticipation.
What realm is above the Great Perfection of the Great Dao?
