Chapter 735: Divine Essence Immortal Palace
Chapter 735: Divine Essence Immortal Palace
Li Ya and Zuoyi Jian couldn’t remember the last time they had met, but it felt like a very long time ago.
Meeting an old friend after such a long time, especially after more than a million years, filled both of them with emotion.
An Xing stopped to let the two catch up. Zuoyi Jian looked at Li Ya now and felt very happy. He thought back to over four million years ago when Li Ya was just an ordinary disciple in the Grand Mystery Sect. Back then, geniuses like An Hao and Wu Jue overshadowed him. Who would have thought that after four million years, An Hao and Wu Jue had vanished without a trace, while Li Ya had become the foremost sword cultivator under heaven.
As a sword cultivator, Zuoyi Jian naturally paid close attention to such a title.
During their conversation, he could sense the vastsword intent within Li Ya, which left him secretly amazed.
How did this kid cultivate?
He had come to Nothingness and spent his days basking in the Dao Intent of the Vast Dao Sword Venerable, which had led to his current accomplishments.
But compared to Li Ya, he felt that his sword path was nothing.
Unbeknownst to him, Li Ya was equally astonished. He could understand Zuoyi Jian reaching the Freedom Immortal Realm, but how could his sword path also be so formidable?
As they chatted, their excitement began to wane.
An Xing, Li Xuanyu, and Li Xianyou could clearly sense the change in their emotions, and the atmosphere became quite subtle.
Finally, An Xing took the initiative to speak, saying that Li Ya still needed to see his master and bid farewell to Zuoyi Jian.
Zuoyi Jian watched the four of them leave, sighing, “Truly, he has such good fortune.”
He had spent so many years kneeling on the Heaven Mending Platform of the Grand Mystery Sect to earn his current opportunities, while Li Ya had simply stumbled into the hidden medicinal valley of the Vast Dao Sword Venerable, completely transforming his destiny. How could he not be envious?
He remembered that back then, Li Ya’s talent was not the most outstanding, even within the Li family.
Zuoyi Jian then thought of his son, Zuo Lin. Initially, Zuo Lin and Gu An had a good relationship, but over the years, they had grown distant.
On the other side.
Li Xianyou flew over to Li Ya’s side and asked curiously, “Master, do you have a grudge against him?”
Li Ya gave him a look and said, “How could we have a grudge? I grew up with his son.”
Sigh!
His Dao heart was still not stable enough; this could be a test?
Li Ya inwardly ridiculed himself. How could he belittle others, especially an old friend?
If it were Junior Brother Gu, he would never act this way.
With that thought, Li Ya’s eyes regained their usual calmness. He decided that upon returning, he would cultivate his Dao heart again.
Li Xianyou didn’t know what his master was thinking. He kept pressing for Zuoyi Jian’s identity, and Li Ya didn’t hide it, recounting Zuoyi Jian’s past with Gu An.
Learning that Zuoyi Jian had moved his master with his persistence over a long period, Li Xianyou couldn’t help but marvel at Li Ya’s good fortune.
“Master, Master Gu really has no complaints about you. I’m thinking of transferring to Nothingness.”
Li Xianyou’s words didn’t anger Li Ya. He knew the boy was teasing him.
Of course, if Li Xianyou could join Nothingness, he, as a master, would be happy. However, Nothingness wasn’t something he could decide, and he didn’t have the face to ask Gu An, as he already owed him too much.
Not long after, the four of them landed on the mountain peak where Gu An resided. An Xing and Li Xuanyu gestured for them to enter the courtyard, then the two women vanished from sight.
Li Ya looked at the courtyard gate but didn’t use his divine sense to probe. He felt a bit nervous inside.
But Li Xianyou was watching him, so he had to maintain his master’s demeanor.
He lifted his head and walked proudly toward the courtyard gate. Li Xianyou watched his back and found it amusing.
I never expected my master to be so nervous.
Is Master Gu really my master’s junior? He seems more like my master’s master.
Li Xian You thought to himself as he followed Li Ya’s footsteps. Suddenly, he found the meeting between his master and Master Gu quite intriguing.
Li Ya stepped into the courtyard and saw a Grand Cauldron. A graceful figure was sitting in meditation before the cauldron, and her silhouette seemed familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
He didn’t think much of it; it was normal for old acquaintances to appear in Gu An’s training ground.
His gaze shifted to a figure under a large tree in the courtyard. The person was lying on a long chair, reading a book. The sight made him feel a bit dazed.
He thought back to over four million years ago, when Gu An also enjoyed lying down to read books in the Mystic Valley.
"Senior Brother, why are you standing there in a daze? Could it be that you’ve been severely injured again, affecting your mind?"
Gu An’s teasing laughter pulled Li Ya back to reality. For some reason, hearing Gu An jest at him made Li Ya less nervous, and their relationship seemed to revert to what it once was.
Li Ya’s face broke into a smile, and he stepped forward, laughing, "How could that be? When have I ever been severely injured?"
Seeing his master relax, Li Xian You felt even more admiration for Gu An.
Not only was Master Gu powerful, but he also understood and empathized with others. Such a great being was truly a sage of the Mortal World.
Li Xian You hurriedly followed, eager to hear what his master and Master Gu would discuss.
Sunlight bathed the courtyard, and in the distance, birds flew out of the woods, as if celebrating the warm reunion of old friends.
...
Under the blue sky, an endless sea of clouds lay still. On top of the clouds stood an old tree, and beneath it, a white-robed Daoist was cultivating.
It was Li Xuemiao!
After ascending to the ranks of the immortals and receiving Heavenly Court Qi Yun, Li Xuemiao’s cultivation had rapidly advanced, reaching the innate Golden Immortal Realm, and his power was still growing.
His immortal rank was now Xian Lord, and since Xian Tian Jin Xian was not yet qualified for a Xian Lord, he had not yet begun his immortal duties.
A seven-colored rainbow light descended from the sky, landing seven steps away from the tree. It was a purple-robed old man, thin and almost skeletal, but with sharp, piercing eyes like a sword unsheathed, radiating a fierce brilliance.
"Xian Lord Xuemiao, the Supreme Being has sent a command for you to go to the Divine Essence Immortal Palace to receive a Heavenly Dao divine weapon."
The purple-robed old man bowed respectfully, though his eyes remained fixed on Li Xuemiao, sizing him up.
Li Xuemiao opened his eyes, and the purple-robed old man lowered his gaze.
"I understand. I will go shortly."
Li Xuemiao spoke without immediately standing up, as his Reincarnation Projection had not yet fully returned.
The purple-robed old man added, "The Supreme Being has asked me to remind you that if the Great Xianshen Yuan tries to recruit you, listen to what they have to say, but do not make any promises."
"Understood."
Li Xuemiao responded. Having been in the Heavenly Court for so many years, though he often cultivated, he was frequently courted by various immortals, giving him a glimpse into the internal factional struggles of the Heavenly Court.
The internal factions of the Heavenly Court were far more complex than he had imagined, and even as a Xian Lord, he had to act with caution.
Behind the Celestial Deity and the Star Lord might stand immortals of even higher ranks.
The purple-robed old man said no more, bowed again, and disappeared on the spot.
Li Xuemiao stood up and looked out over the sea of clouds, as if he could see through the layers and glimpse his Reincarnation.
"Divine Essence Immortal Palace… Great Xianshen Yuan…"
Li Xuemiao gazed down at the Three Thousand Great Worlds, pondering how to contact his master.
