Chapter 768: Gu An Calms Down
Chapter 768: Gu An Calms Down
Yuan Luo had lost count of how many times he had died. Each time he resurrected, he threw himself back into the fray, only to die again.
All the beings within the Heaven Suppressing Endless Tower fought with all their might, forming a powerful will and momentum that dragged him along, making it impossible to break free.
He could only feel his rate of death increasing, as the enemies drew closer to their resurrection points.
By the end, Yuan Luo had become numb.
He wasn't the only one; many of the dark beings and Chaos Demons also seemed dazed and disoriented. The shouts and roars within the tower grew increasingly faint.
Gu An continued his relentless push toward the top of the Heaven Suppressing Endless Tower.
Even with the ability to resurrect, constant death would erode morale. Even the Primordial Essence Immortals and Daoji Grand Immortals had fallen silent, too exhausted to scream or curse. They knew they couldn't stop Gu An; their goal was to show their resolve and keep fighting until their Lord spoke.
From the outside, it was clear that Gu An had already reached the middle of the Heaven Suppressing Endless Tower and was rapidly advancing upward. His speed remained constant, unaffected by the number of enemies or their morale.
Time passed swiftly.
Gu An grew closer to the top, and the vast black ocean he traversed remained boundless, though it had become oppressive. Many of the dark beings and Chaos Demons no longer used Tong Sheng, instead charging directly at him, waiting to be instantly killed.
After a long while.
A black domain finally appeared at the end of the hall, like a black wall. When Gu An was a thousand miles away from the black wall, some of the dark beings and Chaos Demons began to slow down.
By the time Gu An reached the black wall, no living being dared to approach him.
He did not stop, and with a single sword stroke, he shattered the black wall.
All the dark beings and Chaos Demons halted, staring dumbfounded at Gu An's back.
As the black wall was cut down, a dark and ominous hall appeared ahead. Countless dark beings and Chaos Demons knelt in unison, creating a spectacular scene like a surging tide.
They were all paying homage to the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable!
At the end of the dark hall, the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable stood on the steps, his eyes cold and fixed on Gu An.
After entering the dark hall, Gu An paused. In the silver sword light, he opened his golden-red eyes, revealing Voidgaze!
Seeing Voidgaze, the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable's eyes showed a subtle change.
What kind of eyes are these?
It was the first time he had seen such eyes, which reminded him of the Emperor Eye, though the Emperor Eye did not evoke the same oppressive feeling as these.
Although both were Primal Transcendent Venerables, with Gu An's Voidgaze open, the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable felt he might not be a match for him.
"Young one, you are not a Celestial of the Heavenly Court. Your killing intent is waning. Why have you come?"
The Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable asked, his tone calm. His composure restored the confidence of his countless subordinates.
Countless dark beings and Chaos Demons stood outside the hall, watching the confrontation between him and Gu An. At this moment, no one dared to make a sound; they all held their breath, waiting for the impending battle.
Gu An raised the Azure Crane Sword, pointing it at the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable.
The silver sword light did not completely envelop him; his robe billowed, displaying the demeanor of a Sword Immortal.
No, he couldn't be described simply as an Immortal!
All the beings of the Dark Celestial Court looked at Gu An with fear and apprehension. After so much fighting, they were no longer certain that their Lord could defeat him.
Seeing Gu An raise his sword, the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable narrowed his eyes. His bones began to burn with black flames, quickly covering his skeleton and forming a black suit of armor. The armor was covered in scales that reflected a metallic sheen, with threads of Hei Qi symbolizing the Great Dao swirling around it.
Gu An took a step toward Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable, and with each step, his aura exploded, rising higher and higher, causing all the living beings outside the hall to change their expressions dramatically.
Gu An had heard Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable's inquiry, but he was too lazy to respond.
Since the fight had already reached this point, he naturally intended to make an example of Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable!
Of course, he wouldn't destroy the Heaven Suppressing Endless Tower. He was just here to vent his anger. If he could delay the Heaven Suppressing Endless Tower's descent upon the Heavenly Dao, he would consider it a service to all the beings of the Heavenly Dao.
Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable's eyes narrowed, and a surge of Hei Qi rapidly expanded, altering the space within the hall. In an instant, the two of them found themselves in a dark void, a place where nothing else existed besides them.
The Hei Qi around Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable swiftly condensed into a long halberd, which was not a magical artifact but his Transcendent Venerable Spirit.
Holding the Transcendent Venerable Spirit, Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable's aura reached its peak.
He was a true Primal Transcendent Venerable!
A world-shaking battle was about to erupt!
...
As the sun set, in the Wushi Dao Field.
In the courtyard, An Xing stood behind Shen Zhen, her back to her, looking up at the sky with a slightly furrowed brow, lost in thought, her eyes filled with worry.
"Are you worried about your master?"
Shen Zhen, who was meditating in front of the Alchemy Cauldron, spoke without opening her eyes, her tone tinged with a hint of teasing.
An Xing replied, "It's not that I'm worried about his safety. It's just that he's been gone for several days, and I fear that the Dark Deity might take this opportunity to descend upon the Mortal World. With the Dark Deity's power surpassing that of Xianshen, it would take only a moment to slaughter the entire Mortal World."
Shen Zhen shook her head and laughed, "If the Dark Deity wanted to destroy all life, why would he spread the Dark Deity Sect's scriptures?"
An Xing found this reasoning sound.
However, over the years, she had learned too much about the Dark Deity Sect's deeds, which made her feel uneasy. She sensed that the Dark Deity was different from the enemies of Heaven and Earth in the past. The Dark Deity might bring a catastrophe of unimaginable proportions.
Moreover, with her master suddenly disappearing for several days, she couldn't help but worry.
"The Dark Deity Sect will not slaughter all life. You can rest assured."
A light laugh echoed, causing An Xing to turn her head in surprise. She saw Gu An, dressed in white, entering the courtyard.
An Xing was delighted and let out a sigh of relief. She approached Gu An and asked curiously, "Master, where did you go these past few days?"
Gu An smiled and said, "It's a long story. I had a little skirmish with the ancestor of the Dark Deity's ancestors and warned him that if he dares to cause trouble, I'll wipe out their dao tradition."
He spoke lightly, as if it were a joke, and An Xing couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"Master, even if you don't intervene, could you tell me what realm the Dark Deity is?" An Xing asked curiously.
A Dark Celestial was already more powerful than a Xianshen. How much stronger must a Dark Deity be?
Gu An replied, "Much higher than a Celestial Spirit Deity. Not to mention his Heavenly Spirit Grand World, but even among the Three Thousand Great Worlds, few can match him."
As he spoke, he was still reflecting on his battle with Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable.
After sparring with other Primal Transcendent Venerables, his inflated dao heart had finally calmed down.
He was strong, but not strong enough!
After all, to thoroughly defeat Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable, he would still need to expend a great deal of effort.
