Chapter 710: Celestial Emperor Steps In, Supreme Beings Teach
The Celestial Spirit Deity began recounting the information he had gathered from the lower realms to Gu An. He had not found any news about Yang Jian, but he had heard about the conflict among the Celestial Emperors.
"It is said that some Celestial Emperors are recruiting Xianshen, seemingly searching for something in the Three Thousand Great Worlds. I heard that two Celestial Emperors are preparing to engage in a game of strategy in the Vast World, and this has been permitted by the Supreme Beings. If true, it will be an unprecedented disaster for the Three Thousand Great Worlds."
"The battle of Xianshen in the Vast World will surely destroy heaven and earth. Although Heaven can repair the Vast World, even so, nine out of ten cultivators will die."
At this point, the Celestial Spirit Deity looked at Gu An, his brows furrowed.
Gu An asked, "Why?"
"Because the Xianshen will recruit cultivators to fight for them. The conflict among Celestial Emperors is a matter of personal pride. No matter who wins or loses, even if the Heavenly Court becomes aware and issues punishments, they will be insignificant. However, the Xianshen under the Celestial Emperors will recruit cultivators to do their bidding. Cultivators who rashly involve themselves in the struggle of the Heavenly Court will face the wrath of Heaven."
The Celestial Spirit Deity sighed, and Gu An fell silent.
Indeed, this was a problem with no easy solution. Even if the cultivator forces in the Three Thousand Great Worlds were informed, they would still vie for the hope of immortality.
The path of cultivation is a path of competition, a struggle against both others and the heavens and earth.
Although Gu An could not yet see such a future, through the words of the Celestial Spirit Deity, he could already envision the dark times to come.
"How long do you think it will take for the conflict among the Celestial Emperors to engulf the Three Thousand Great Worlds?" Gu An asked.
The Celestial Spirit Deity replied, "The Heavenly Court has its own immortal years, where one day in heaven equals one year on earth. By the time scale of the Mortal World, it could be as soon as ten thousand years or as long as a hundred million years."
This was the difference between immortals and mortals. For Xianshen, ten thousand years was a short period, but for the Mortal World, ten thousand years could bring about a complete transformation.
Fortunately, time was not so pressing for Gu An. Ten thousand years would be enough for him to make a significant leap in strength.
Of course, even if this calamity were to erupt now, he would not fear it.
He was a Grand Luo Immortal of Dao's Apex, and even in the Heavenly Court, he was not an easy target, though not necessarily the strongest.
"How strong are these two Celestial Emperors, and will they personally step in?" Gu An asked.
"That is beyond my ability to investigate, but they will certainly participate. Such conflicts have happened many times in the past. To become a Heavenly Emperor, one must not only be powerful but also control a formidable force. So they will first act as the strategists. If they lose the game, they will have to step in personally. The same applies to the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Emperor is supreme and often in seclusion or in reincarnation, but if the Heavenly Court faces a catastrophic calamity, the Heavenly Emperor will certainly intervene and turn the tide."
The Celestial Spirit Deity's face showed a hint of admiration as he then recounted some legends about the Heavenly Emperor.
In the Heavenly Court, even if the Heavenly Emperor does not appear, his legends are enough to make all Xianshen trust his capabilities.
The Heavenly Court has controlled the heavens for countless years, and it has earned its current status by suppressing wave after wave of enemies and rebels. Even during the great invasion of the Chaos Demons, the Heavenly Court's Tian Dao Qiyun (Heavenly Dao Order) remained unshaken.
The legends the Celestial Spirit Deity told were exaggerated, almost praising the Heavenly Emperor as omnipotent, suggesting that even without the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Emperor would still be the most powerful being, capable of subduing all living things.
Gu An, however, believed that these legends were not entirely false. He had compared the strength of the Heavenly Court with that of the Three Thousand Great Worlds. Even without the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Court was terrifyingly powerful.
With so many Xianshen, there are always those with ambitious aspirations. The Heavenly Emperor can only remain in that position forever because his strength is in a league of its own.
After discussing the Heavenly Emperor, the Celestial Spirit Deity asked, "Lord, what is your opinion on the Heavenly Spirit Grand World? Should we leave them to their fate, or find a way to help them avoid this great calamity? As long as they don't support the Xianshen, even if they are affected, they can be revived by Heaven after death. If we do nothing, once the news reaches them, they will surely choose a Celestial Emperor to support."
In the conflict between two Celestial Emperors, one will always win, but even by following the winner, only a few can attain immortality. The rest will be punished by Heaven.
Even a Celestial Emperor doesn't have the authority to grant a large number of Heavenly Dao Immortal Positions.
Gu An replied, "If I can protect the entire world, I won't refuse. However, I won't join their internal struggles. We have lived in this grand world for a long time, and even if we have no deep ties, we share a connection. Let's find a way to help them avoid the disaster, but we must not reveal our existence."
He didn't need to personally handle this matter. The Celestial Spirit Deity was now working for him and naturally had to take action.
Of course, Gu An wouldn't neglect him.
After finishing their discussion, Gu An began to impart his knowledge to the Celestial Spirit Deity.
Even after becoming a Celestial Deity, one still needs to cultivate. However, the higher the realm, the greater the difficulty. With his achievements as a Grand Luo Immortal of Dao's Peak, Gu An's guidance was a tremendous opportunity for the Celestial Spirit Deity.
The Celestial Spirit Deity had never entered the Heavenly Court, so he had no access to the teachings of Supreme Xians or Heavenly Dao Sovereigns.
Each time Gu An imparted his knowledge, the Celestial Spirit Deity listened attentively. He served Gu An not only to protect himself and his son, Tianhao, but also to improve himself.
No matter how strong his talent, his ultimate limit was Star Lord. But now, things were different!
The Celestial Spirit Deity's ambition was also growing, and he was consciously helping Gu An and Nothingness to pave the way.
...
Above the cloud sea, a green light flashed. Upon closer inspection, the green light was a circular green fan, on which stood a dozen or so figures. Leading them was the Eternal Divine Venerable who had previously visited the Heavenly Spirit Grand World.
Yang Jian, clad in silver armor, stood among the crowd, his gaze constantly scanning the surroundings, admiring all the scenery along the way.
The distant cloud sea churned, transforming into various shapes, breathtakingly beautiful. Occasionally, true dragons and phoenixes would leap out of the cloud sea, stirring up clouds and mists.
"Brother Yang, you are truly fortunate. Being a newcomer, you get to follow Master to listen to the teachings. The White-haired Immortal Ancestor is a Heavenly Dao Sovereign, who rarely returns from the Heavenly Court. She is one of the few who are willing to impart their knowledge."
A gray-robed Daoist looked at Yang Jian and smiled softly.
Everyone around was a Xianshen, with the lowest rank being Star Lord, and even True Deities and Xian Lords were present. Each one was dignified and their Qi profound and unfathomable.
Yang Jian couldn't help but ask curiously, "Heavenly Dao Sovereign? Those who bear the title of Supreme are surely the highest-ranking Xianshen in the Heavenly Court?"
The gray-robed Daoist smiled and said, "Of course, Heavenly Dao Sovereigns have their own ranks. If we encounter one, we must pay our respects and dare not offend them in our hearts, or we will be punished by the Heavenly Dao. When you meet her, you will never forget it."
"Being able to witness a Heavenly Dao Sovereign is itself a great blessing. Heaven will greatly enhance our Tian Dao Qiyun, saving us years of arduous cultivation."
"Moreover, the teachings of a Heavenly Dao Sovereign are beyond what you can imagine, and you will certainly gain a lot."
These words made Yang Jian even more eager for the upcoming teachings.
He felt even more grateful to Gu An.
Master, I am about to face a Heavenly Dao Sovereign and listen to her teachings. If you knew, would you be proud of me?
Yang Jian felt a bit regretful, as he believed he was taking his master's place. Such a tremendous opportunity should have belonged to his master.
