Chapter 692: The True Xianshen
Chapter 692: The True Xianshen
Xu You's voice was drowned out by the thundering sound in the void. Beside him, Zhang Buku also widened his eyes, his pupils shimmering with golden light that quickly spread across his vision.
Hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers gazed upward, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
The Heavenly Guardian looked up and was equally terrified. He immediately roared in anger, raising his saber and slashing upward. The immense power, nearly reaching the peak of the Balanced Heaven Immortal realm, erupted and surged into the sky.
The golden bell-shaped shadow formed by the hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers trembled violently. The golden dragons and fire phoenixes, as if encountering their natural enemies, halted and let out collective cries toward the sky.
The thousands of trapped individuals behind Gu An also looked up, their faces illuminated by the golden light, revealing their stunned expressions.
Golden palms of varying sizes descended from the heavens, countless and blindingly bright, filling the entire void above. It was as if another plane of existence was descending, exuding an overwhelming pressure.
No matter which direction they looked, they saw golden palm shadows as massive as mountains. Some were even larger than the heavens and earth, and an unimaginable force prevented them from leaving the range of the Heavenly Army Formation.
Even the Mystery Emperor of the Celestial Realm of Supreme Freedom couldn't count the number of golden palms. In the presence of such Tong Sheng, the Xianshen of the Heavenly Court seemed as insignificant and fragile as mortals.
An Zizai's mouth gaped open as he watched the endless stream of golden palms descend. His mind went blank, and he stared dumbfounded at the scene.
Time seemed to slow down, and everyone except the Heavenly Guardian was caught off guard.
The Heavenly Guardian raised his saber and slashed. The immense power, as it ascended, transformed into a crimson qilin enveloped in heavenly thunder, larger than the Soul-Refining Cauldron. Yet, in the face of the World-Stabilizing Divine Palm's countless palm shadows, it was like a mosquito in a rainstorm, ready to be swallowed at any moment.
The World-Stabilizing Divine Palm moved at incredible speed, appearing and descending in less than a breath.
Innumerable golden palms struck the golden bell shadow, the blinding golden light stripping the void of all color.
Zhang Buku looked up, his eyes wide. He instinctively tried to use Tong Sheng, but his movements were too slow, and he was ultimately engulfed by the golden light.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
When the void lost its color, deafening explosions echoed one after another. An Zizai closed his eyes, unable to see, the sound making him feel as if the entire Great Dao Universe was shaking. His blood and qi congealed, causing him immense discomfort.
Standing behind Gu An, he was in such a state, let alone the others.
Xueyu Great Saint felt both uncomfortable and excited. Even though he couldn't see, the vast image of the World-Stabilizing Divine Palm echoed in his mind.
He wanted to learn such Tong Sheng too!
When he returned, he would definitely pester his master to teach him this Tong Sheng!
The Mystery Emperor couldn't cast any spells either, but he sensed a unique Qi Yun. The opponent wasn't just immensely powerful in cultivation; there was a special Qi Yun enhancing him.
This Qi Yun was similar to that of a Dadao Emperor, comparable to the Great Dao, yet independent of it.
This left the Mystery Emperor greatly astonished.
Was there a form of Great Dao Qi Yun even stronger than a Dadao Emperor?
Before he could think more, his consciousness was dragged into a deep sleep.
...
An Zizai had a dream. He dreamed of the Great Grandmaster wreaking havoc among the Heavenly Soldiers' Generals, no immortal or deity able to withstand a single move, a one-sided massacre.
Suddenly.
The Great Grandmaster appeared before him, and he woke up with a start, his eyes wide open, sitting up and gasping for breath.
The morning sunlight cut through the mountains and rivers, shining on him, giving him a sense of being in a different world. He instinctively turned his head and found himself in the Great Grandmaster's courtyard.
Shen Zhen and An Xing were seated in front of an alchemy cauldron, whispering to each other, with no other figures in sight.
He couldn't help but ask, "Master, Uncle Shen, where is the Great Grandmaster?"
"Your Great Grandmaster went out for a walk and should be back by evening", An Xing replied calmly.
Shen Zhen turned to look at him, asking curiously, "How was it? Did you see Great Grandmaster in action?"
An Zizai took a deep breath and nodded vigorously. Recalling the memory in his mind, he couldn't help but clench his fists, his eyes gleaming. He replied, "Great Grandmaster used the Tong Sheng technique he taught me. It was so powerful. The Heavenly Court had at least a hundred thousand Xianshen, and they couldn't withstand a single palm strike from him..."
An Xing also became interested and turned to listen to his account of the previous battle.
Meanwhile.
Gu An was in the Mountain Deity Temple on Tai Cang Continent. After picking the mature herbs, he came to the courtyard and quietly activated the Life Span barrier. Then, he took out the Demon God Body he had seized from the Soul-Refining Cauldron, still in its egg form.
He had not killed the Heavenly Guardian or the hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers. The Heavenly Guardian was essentially immortal, and the Heavenly Soldiers were just following orders. If he had killed them all, the karma involved would have been enough to cover the Three Thousand Great Worlds and numerous mysterious universes. Besides, Zhang Buku was among them.
Of course, this battle was not only to scare the Heavenly Guardian but also to demonstrate the power of the Primordial Dao Emperor to the thousands of trapped individuals and hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers.
These trapped individuals and Heavenly Soldiers were all great beings, the pride of the heavens. They would certainly sense the Qi Yun of the Primordial Dao Emperor and could spread his name in their respective universes.
At the moment, Gu An was more concerned about the Demon God Body the Heavenly Guardian had refined.
He carefully observed it and found that this body had an extremely high compatibility with the Three Thousand Great Daos. This meant the body could cultivate various great paths and do so easily.
For whom had the Heavenly Guardian prepared this physical body?
This body lacked the Qi Yun of the Heavenly Court, so Gu An deduced that there were hundreds more such bodies in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, and one was even hidden in the Divine Court of the Ta Wei Great World.
So many Demon God bodies, all refined by Xianshen, must be related to the Imperial Struggle.
Did they need so many Demon Gods to overthrow the current Heavenly Emperor's rule?
Gu An was very curious about how powerful the current Heavenly Emperor truly was.
What was his Heavenly Dao Concept?
Perhaps the Xianshen's indifference to the mortal world was related to the Imperial Struggle.
Gu An looked at the Demon God Body, deep in thought.
Xuan Miao Zhenren sat beside him, watching the giant egg with curiosity. Even though the egg had shrunk significantly, the figure curled inside still appeared large.
Staring at the figure within the egg, Xuan Miao Zhenren felt a deep unease. He found the body terrifying and dared not disturb Gu An.
After a long while.
Gu An glanced at Xuan Miao Zhenren and asked with a smile, "I will grant you this physical body to help you with Soul Transference. Are you willing?"
Xuan Miao Zhenren's face changed dramatically. He neither immediately agreed nor refused but asked cautiously, "What is the origin of this physical body?"
"This physical body was refined by a true Xianshen. If you undergo Soul Transference with it, you will possess talent that surpasses all things in heaven and earth. However, you will also bear unforeseeable karma and may be drawn into significant trouble in the future."
Gu An explained, and this only made Xuan Miao Zhenren more nervous.
A true Xianshen?
Xuan Miao Zhenren had followed Gu An because he believed in Xianshen. Now, hearing about a true Xianshen from Gu An, his heart rate quickened.
