Chapter 774: That One Sword
Chapter 774: That One Sword
The Demon Emperor stared blankly as Gu An approached, ancient memories swirling in his mind, causing him to momentarily forget his current predicament.
The Dark Deity did not move, only fixing his gaze on Gu An.
At this moment, Gu An seemed to become the focal point of the entire Heaven and Earth, with more and more eyes locking onto him, most filled with confusion.
In the current Heaven and Earth, few knew who Gu An was.
Even when mentioning Nothingness, the masses would only think of vague legends. The most famous figures in Nothingness were Lv Xian and Chen Chuan. People knew that the Lord of Nothingness was powerful, but there were not many records or tales about him.
Heaven and Earth fell silent, all creatures staring at Gu An, eager to see what he would do.
From the Dark Deity's inquiry, it seemed this person was indeed very strong.
But...
No matter how strong, could he really stand against the entire Darkness Cult?
Gu An held Li Ya's sword, ignoring the gazes from all directions. This time, he did not try to hide his true appearance, allowing everyone to see him clearly.
He wanted to tell everyone that the Heavenly Spirit Grand World could rely on itself for salvation. He was not a Xianshen or an Exterior Demon; he was just an ordinary-looking person.
Many great powers in the Heavenly Realms believed Gu An came from another grand world and had been living in seclusion here, unaware that Gu An was a native of the Heavenly Spirit People. This was why he was willing to stay in the Heavenly Spirit Grand World.
Seeing Gu An not respond, the Dark Deity's eyes grew colder, his killing intent almost tangible. He raised his right bone claw, and with that movement, the entire Heaven and Earth suddenly changed. Darkness engulfed the heavens and the earth, making all creatures feel suffocated.
At that moment!
Gu An moved!
He swiftly threw Li Ya's treasured sword, the cold light flashing. The Demon Emperor's face was illuminated by the sword's light, his eyes widening in shock.
The Dark Celestial's black robe billowed violently, and he was equally caught off guard.
Boom!
The sword pierced the Dark Deity with an incredible speed, without any flashy Tong Sheng manifestation or fierce sword intent.
They believed in the power of darkness, and in their hearts, the Dark Deity was the strongest, all-powerful being. How could he be slain by a single sword strike?
That sword was indeed swift, but...
This completely defied their expectations of the battle.
The Dark Celestial also regained his senses. He realized something was amiss and tried to move away, but an overwhelmingly terrifying force pinned him down, rendering him immobile.
He looked at Gu An in terror, who was still approaching him.
The Altar remained silent, but all living beings stared at Gu An. The sound of his footsteps seemed to echo in their ears, resonating in their hearts, powerful and resonant, shaking their minds and souls.
Gu An walked step by step toward the Dark Celestial, bringing him endless panic.
He deliberately moved slowly. As time passed and the Dark Deity failed to appear, more and more living beings began to believe that the Dark Deity was truly dead.
His death was sudden, and he offered no resistance.
If not for the terrifying pressure they had felt from the Dark Deity earlier, they might have doubted whether the Darkness Cult was a mere lie, and the so-called Dark Deity was not worth mentioning.
But now...
All they felt was boundless shock and reverence.
Who was this person?
Why was he so powerful?
The disciples of Nothingness were even more excited. They stood up, watching Gu An from a distance, not daring to disturb him.
Other living beings gradually noticed the disappearance of the Dark Deity's pressure. They could stand up, but once they did, no one spoke, and no one left. They remained in their places, waiting silently.
Gu An walked past the Demon Emperor, getting closer to the Dark Celestial.
The Demon Emperor's gaze followed Gu An, and Qitian Xiansheng Zhenjun did the same.
In Qitian Xiansheng Zhenjun's eyes, Gu An radiated a brilliance he had never seen before, exuding an aura he had never encountered.
This was the person he should have become!
Although Qitian Xiansheng Zhenjun did not know Gu An, at this moment, he felt an extreme sense of reverence and admiration for him.
It was not just because of Gu An's power, but also because of the perfect timing of his appearance, which was so profoundly moving.
All the onlookers' thoughts reached Gu An's ears, but he paid no attention.
He stood before the Dark Celestial, his eyes cold.
An unimaginable pressure forced the Dark Celestial to kneel, bowing before him. This scene made every living being's heart skip a beat.
They realized that the Dark Celestial's act of kneeling held profound significance.
It signified the end of the calamity brought by the Darkness Cult, and the Dark Deity would become a laughingstock.
Heaven and Earth seemed to be in harmony. The black clouds in the sky parted, allowing sunlight to shine through, dispelling the darkness of the Mortal World.
"Who... who are you... why..."
The Dark Celestial gritted his teeth, his face obscured by Hei Qi, his true appearance hidden.
Gu An looked down at him and said, "It seems you are insignificant in the Dark Celestial Court, mere pawns sent outside."
He had already visited the Heaven Suppressing Endless Tower, and its speed had slowed significantly. This indicated that the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable was hesitant. Despite this, the Dark Deity still dared to come.
Clearly, the Dark Deity was of no importance to the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable.
Not just the Dark Deity, but all the dark beings sent into the Heavenly Dao were considered expendable by the Imperial Bone Transcendent Venerable.
When the Dark Celestial heard Gu An mention the Dark Celestial Court, his entire body trembled, and his head lowered.
