Chapter 727: Worlds Gate
Chapter 727: Worlds Gate
Evening had fallen.
After An Xing returned, Gu An stopped guiding Shangguan Xianer's cultivation in the Tong Sheng realm and sent her back.
Gu An and An Xing stood side by side at the cliff's edge, gazing into the distance. An Xing spoke softly, "Master, Yuan Luo will likely become a great calamity for Heaven and Earth. Though I expelled him, I can feel his strength and hatred. He harbors an endless source of terrifying power within him."
"Do you want me to kill him?" Gu An countered.
He had witnessed the intense battle between An Xing and Yuan Luo. If not for Yuan Luo's use of primordial power, he would not have been An Xing's match.
This defeat deeply affected Yuan Luo, and he will gradually awaken his primordial consciousness until he becomes a true Chaos Grievance Luo.
Yuan Luo's life is not without sin, but who among immortal cultivators has clean hands? He has his own merits and demerits, and whether he is good or evil depends on one's perspective.
An Xing shook her head. "I wouldn't think of such a thing. Asking you to kill him outright would be too extreme. I want to know if you can bring him back so I can discipline him and help him let go of his obsessions. I fear he will lead the Heaven and Earth Sect to a disastrous end."
She understood all too well the complexities of the Heavenly Spirit Grand World. If things went too far, even without Gu An's intervention, a Celestial Deity's involvement would be more than Yuan Luo could handle.
Yuan Luo's ambition to become the Overlord Under Heaven is extreme, and his subordinates are aggressive and ruthless. He allows no betrayal, and his disciples cannot escape the Heaven and Earth Sect. If they try to flee, he will hunt them down. Over time, An Xing fears the consequences will be dire.
She had coexisted with the Heaven and Earth Sect for over a million years and had feelings for it. She did not want the sect to meet a tragic end. By subduing Yuan Luo, the sect's decline could be more dignified. Perhaps, with a new Jiao Zhu, the Heaven and Earth Sect could continue its legacy.
"Such measures are unnecessary. This is a trial for the Heaven and Earth Sect. We have already protected them too much. It's not necessary for us to see them through to the end. Instead, you should consider how to treat the people of the continent in the future."
Gu An replied and silently chose to activate the Lifespan Dao Field.
[Please select the range for the training ground you wish to open.]
A prompt appeared, and Gu An extended his mind to cover the entire Nine Spirits Continent.
[This will require 100,000,000,000 years of Lifespan. Do you wish to continue?]
One hundred billion years of Lifespan!
Previously, opening a training ground required five hundred million years of Lifespan. The entire Nine Spirits Continent was more than two hundred times the size of the current training ground. This consumption of years was well worth it in Gu An's view.
He chose to continue without hesitation.
In an instant, the Heaven and Earth Qi in the continent suddenly halted. An Xing noticed this and swallowed her prepared words, frowning as she looked around.
This was the training ground; how could such a disturbance occur?
An Xing turned her gaze to Gu An, seeing his smile, and her tension eased.
"Master, what's happening?" An Xing asked curiously.
Gu An smiled and said, "I am expanding the training ground to cover the entire continent. In the future, you will have a much larger area to move freely."
An Xing followed up, "Does this mean that all the people of the continent will benefit from the training ground's Qi and Dao Intent?"
Gu An had mentioned expanding the Great Dao field, and at the time, she thought it would only be a larger area. She did not expect that the Dao Intent and rich Qi would also expand.
This was a tremendous act of virtue. An Xing could already imagine how prosperous the Nine Spirits Continent would become in the future.
She even began to fantasize about the grandeur of Nothingness as it grew, but the number of disciples in Nothingness was still far too few.
The spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth paused for a few breaths, then the earth began to tremble, and a vast surge of spiritual energy erupted from the depths, causing tension among the inhabitants of the continent. Many great cultivators who were in seclusion in the mountains and forests were startled and fled one after another.
Fog began to rise from the ocean at the edge of the continent, gradually shrouding the land, and the twilight glow became even more melancholic.
...
Time flew by, and two hundred thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
The Nine Spirits Continent has now become a mysterious legend. Over the long ages, many sects have attempted to explore it, but they were all driven away by mysterious forces. Occasionally, some cultivators would accidentally wander in, but they were quickly escorted out. These experiences left an indelible impression on them, leading to numerous legends about the Nothingness Continent, symbolizing hope and representing a utopia, even hinting at the realm of immortals.
Piercing through the vast fog over the ocean, one would find the Nine Spirits Continent, with its magnificent landscapes and majestic mountains and rivers. Magical birds flew through the sky, and immortal cultivators could be seen soaring through the air.
Prosperous and grand cities dotted every region of the continent, each forming its own little world.
At the beginning of the Nothingness Dao Ground, it remains a forbidden area, off-limits to other beings.
In the courtyard.
Gu An stood before the Alchemy Cauldron, manipulating the Purest True Fire. Shen Zhen sat beside him, practicing her cultivation, while An Xing stood behind Gu An, reporting the current situation.
"The number of beings is increasing, and if this continues, trouble is bound to arise. We can't just drive some of them away, as they are all related in some way."
An Xing said softly, her brows slightly furrowed.
The Mortal World must not be left without a ruler, so the emperor of the Nine Spirits Continent worships Nothingness. Currently, the third-generation great disciple An Zizai is responsible for liaising with the imperial authority. An Zizai's cave abode is located within the imperial city, serving as a warning to the imperial authority. Thus, over the two hundred thousand years, the Nine Spirits Continent has remained orderly.
Gu An replied, "No worries. In a few days, I will establish the Worlds Gate, allowing them to travel freely, each responsible for their own fate."
"Worlds Gate? Can it connect to myriad worlds?" An Xing asked curiously.
"Yes, it is a Dao Treasure. I will use Qi Yun as the standard for selection, ensuring that no outsiders can use this gate to infiltrate."
Gu An's lips curved into a smile. The Worlds Gate is his proudest creation, capable of connecting to the Three Thousand Great Worlds and even some special realms. It is also a powerful Dao Treasure, and even a Grand Luo Immortal at the peak of the Dao would find it difficult to destroy.
"Aren't you afraid, Master, that Nothingness will be exposed?" An Xing asked with a smile.
"Have I ever been afraid?"
Gu An replied stubbornly. He now had a certain level of confidence, and besides, Nothingness had no intention or capability to overthrow the Heavenly Court. What was there to fear?
The two continued chatting for a while, and then An Xing went to gather the third-generation disciples to prepare for a lecture.
She had already become a Primordial Dao Emperor. As the second-generation great disciple, she had always closely monitored the cultivation progress of the third-generation disciples, hoping that each one would become powerful and not disgrace Nothingness or their master.
After An Xing left, Shen Zhen opened her eyes and looked at Gu An, saying, "Although I have not yet reached the level of Primordial Dao Emperor, I am seeing more and more visions regarding that calamity."
She was referring to the Imperial Struggle, which was no longer a secret within Nothingness.
"Oh? What new visions did you see this time?" Gu An asked casually.
He, too, could see the karma of the Imperial Struggle, and many Xianshen had already appeared in his vision.
Zhang Buku, Tianhao, and Zhu Xi would all be involved, rising to prominence in this great calamity.
