Chapter 649: The Endless Dao Mountains
Chapter 649: The Endless Dao Mountains
After parting ways with Emperor Tian Hong, Gu An traveled to the Tai Cang Continent and visited the Mountain God Temple to gather medicinal herbs. Then, he ventured alone into the uninhabited wilderness, away from the mundane world.
He sat under a tree and initiated the Lifespan Breakthrough.
[You have activated the Lifespan Breakthrough function. Based on your current cultivation realm, the following breakthrough locations are available to you:]
1. The Great Dao Path
2. The Battle Spirit Sacred Mansion
3. The Great Microcosm
4. The Spirit Mountain
5. The Fate Longevity Mansion
6. The Endless Dao Mountains
7. The Primordial Emperor's Domain
8. The Profound Abyssal God's Abyss
9. The Supreme Source Forest
Looking at the options before him, Gu An furrowed his brows slightly.
He didn't see the Absolute Extremity Heavenly Tomb on the list.
He had planned to find a way to rescue the sinners trapped within the Heavenly Tomb after his breakthrough.
In his opinion, by the time he broke through again, he should have the strength to unravel the mysteries of the Heavenly Tomb.
Not only the Great Perfection Great Immortal, but even ordinary Ascended Great Immortals were rare. After breaking through to a higher realm, even if he wasn't the strongest, he should be one of the most powerful beings within the Great Dao.
After rescuing the sinners, he could use them to investigate the cause and effect of Yao Xuan's fairyland, thus resolving the lingering obsession left by the Eternal Emperor.
These tasks didn't seem troublesome to Gu An; instead, he was filled with anticipation.
In the pursuit of strength, there must be opportunities to showcase one's abilities!
"Is the absence of the Absolute Extremity Heavenly Tomb because it can't withstand my breakthrough, while these places can?"
A sudden thought crossed Gu An's mind.
If that were the case, could he infer that these nine locations possessed power beyond that of the Great Perfection Great Immortal? Even if they didn't, these places could nurture even stronger Great Immortals, something the Heavenly Spirit Grand World couldn't compare to.
Not only Great Immortals, but even Golden Immortals couldn't be nurtured in the Heavenly Spirit Grand World.
Gu An pondered silently, and after much consideration, he chose the Endless Dao Mountains.
The name itself sounded profound and mysterious, and it would be easier to hide there.
[Teleportation to the Endless Dao Mountains will consume 10,000,000,000 years of lifespan. Do you wish to proceed?]
Proceed!
A long-forgotten sensation washed over him, causing him to instinctively close his eyes, and his senses momentarily ceased to function.
After a while, he felt his feet touch the ground, and he immediately opened his eyes. In almost an instant, he activated the Lifespan Barrier.
Only after completing the Lifespan Barrier did he have the presence of mind to observe his surroundings.
As far as the eye could see, the celestial canopy was as dark as the cosmic void. Countless towering mountains stood upon the earth, rising and falling, with no end in sight, and it was impossible to count the number of peaks.
Even the Great Perfection Great Immortal, Gu An, with his cultivation at the pinnacle, couldn't see the edge of this realm.
Another ever-expanding universe? He discovered that every mountain in all directions was imbued with a vast amount of Dao intent, as if nurturing the Great Dao.
The heavens and earth were oppressive, and within the darkness, the Endless Dao Mountains stood like majestic deities, exuding a vast and ancient aura.
The mountain beneath Gu An's feet was enormous. Even when standing at its summit, it felt like being on an expansive continent. The height of this mountain exceeded the distance from the surface of the Nine Ling Continent to the heavens above.
The mountain he was on wasn't even the tallest of the Dao Mountains. In the distance, there were mountains as high as heavenly chasms, exuding supreme authority.
"The Endless Dao Mountains... I wonder how far they are from the Vast Universe..."
Gu An wondered in his heart. He had never heard of the Endless Dao Mountains before.
The more mysterious and powerful places there were, the happier Gu An would be.
If the end of the Great Dao was so easily reachable, the joy of cultivation would diminish significantly.
Gu An sat down to meditate and then summoned his attribute panel.
First, he enhanced his physique, which hadn't been improved in a long time!
Gu An directly attempted to improve it, but the Everlasting Cycle of Samsara's indestructible body didn't undergo any transformation.
He continued his relentless pursuit.
In the end, it took a total of four hundred billion years of lifespan to elevate the Primordial Cyclic Undying Body to the Primordial Creation Dao Body.
A majestic surge of Dao's spiritual energy enveloped him, and the ground beneath Gu An's feet instantly lit up with the brilliance of the Great Dao, limited to within the barrier. For the time being, there were no abnormalities on the surface of the mountains outside the barrier.
Gu An quickly immersed himself in the inheritance.
The Primordial Creation Dao Body retained the characteristics of his previous physique, with an indestructible cycle of reincarnation and formidable cultivation power. Additionally, it allowed him to create new Great Daos.
Indeed, this was a Great Dao independent of the Three Thousand Great Daos!
It was created based on his own cultivation power and physical strength.
As in the past, regardless of how powerful the transformation was, it took less than one hour for Gu An to successfully undergo the metamorphosis.
The newest, smallest, and most concise version of the story is in Chapter 69, which is the first chapter to be released!
He opened his eyes, and a brilliant light flashed in them.
Creation of the Dao?
Suddenly, he thought of the countless Great Daos. Even he couldn't determine the exact number, and he wondered if there might be a Great Dao created by a cultivator.
This speculation remained unanswered for now, and he turned his gaze to the cultivation methods within the attribute panel.
Next was the enhancement of the primary cultivation method! Gu An invested one hundred billion years of lifespan into the Great Dao Dominance Technique.
In the end, he spent nearly three hundred and fifty billion years of lifespan to elevate the Great Dao Dominance Technique to the Ten Thousand Dao Extinction Technique! The Ten Thousand Dao Extinction Technique, once vast and boundless, now became filled with a slaughterous nature. The ultimate end of dominance was extinction, leaving behind not a trace, with only oneself remaining, standing alone above all other Great Daos.
Half an hour later, Gu An continued his advancement.
The Sun and Moon Non-Ego Divine Way was elevated to the Eternal Dao Qi Divine Thought, consuming nearly three hundred billion years of lifespan. This was Gu An's primary reliance for concealing his cultivation and aura, and he wouldn't neglect it.
The enhancement continued!
The Boundless Heaven-Net Step was elevated to the Great Primordial Heaven-Net Step, consuming nearly four hundred billion years of lifespan!
The Hongmeng Transcendent Golden Body was elevated to the Great Dao Formless Body, consuming three hundred billion years of lifespan.
This supreme technique was a transformation of the Shadow Magic Divine Skill, allowing not only transformation but also the ability to isolate cause and effect and the calculation of one's fate. It would be of great help to Gu An in his survival.
Another half-hour passed.
Gu An cultivated the Great Dao Formless Body, and even without using this supreme technique, his physical body gained the ability to resist calculation. Moreover, this body could enhance his aura and pressure, akin to a suppressive divine ability.
After completing the standard enhancements, it was time to consider combat techniques.
Following past practices, Gu An should enhance his sword cultivation, but now he wanted to improve his Celestial Emperor Orb.
The Celestial Emperor Orb was too powerful for him to give up, but it would also attract the Heavenly Court's apprehension. He had to enhance the Celestial Emperor Orb to an even higher level, making it undetectable by the Heavenly Court.
Just as Gu An was pondering, an unexpected event occurred in the Infinite Dao Mountain, which was in the midst of a riot.
Gu An's continuous elevation of his Dao techniques caused the rules of the Great Dao between heaven and earth to fluctuate. Violent winds howled, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. Some of the Dao Mountains even trembled slightly.
Until now, there had been no signs of life.
But now, there was!
Gu An looked in one direction, and on a majestic Dao Mountain far away, a massive dark shadow appeared. Its figure resembled a human standing atop the mountain, shrouded in mystery, like an ancient evil god.
He couldn't use his lifespan to investigate the shadow, indicating that the other party had yet to reveal their true self.
Even so, their aura was startling.
A True Immortal of the Great Dao! And not in the initial stage!
Gu An merely glanced at it without much concern, as the lifespan barrier made it difficult for the other party to discover him.
He began to invest his lifespan into the Celestial Emperor Orb.
He started with one hundred billion years of lifespan!
