Chapter 790: Primordial Chaos Venerable Immortal
If not a Sage, all is but an illusion; below the Sage, all are mere ants!
Sage!
Gu An heard this realm’s name once again. His intuition told him that becoming a Sage was not something that could be achieved merely through accumulating Dao cultivation.
Looking throughout the Great Dao, let alone Sages, even Primordial Profound Venerable Immortals were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, hard to come by. As for beings surpassing the Primordial Profound Venerable Immortal, Gu An could only confirm that the Heavenly Emperor was one.
Hongyazi was also pondering these words, equally curious about what it meant to be a Sage.
How far was he, the Heaven-Opening Great Luo Immortal, from becoming a Sage?
Both of them were lost in thought, gazing at the countless stone steles stretching across the mountainside.
The realm of the Sage had a profound impact on them. Although Hongyazi’s realm was not sufficient, he had knowledge of the Ancient Heavenly Court. Looking at the inscriptions on the steles, he vaguely sensed that the Dao cultivation of the beings who wrote them was extremely deep, and their celestial ranks were very high.
After a long while.
Hongyazi snapped out of his reverie and said, "These steles seem to be the final words of the Xianshen. The words are filled with regret, despair, and anger. I wonder what they encountered."
Gu An spoke up, "Let’s keep moving forward."
With that, he stepped onto the slope, heading toward the mountaintop, with Hongyazi following closely behind.
The two of them passed by one stele after another. Hongyazi remained vigilant, scanning the surroundings, while Gu An carefully sensed the steles.
These steles were far from ordinary, containing numerous Dao Intentions. These Dao Intentions were well-hidden, and Hongyazi could not detect them at all.
The Dao Intentions within the steles did not seem to be innate but were left behind by the cultivators of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
When Gu An’s divine sense connected with these Dao Intentions, he saw numerous scenes.
Xianshen were engaged in fierce battles!
There were no demons, no beasts, no ghosts—only celestial beings emitting Heavenly Dao Qi Yun.
These scenes were only fragments, not yet coherent. Gu An patiently probed, hoping to see the Heavenly Emperor.
Unfortunately, even after they had traversed the slope, they still did not see the Heavenly Emperor.
Looking ahead, they saw more steles scattered across the undulating hills in the distance, though these were more sparsely distributed than the ones behind them.
Hongyazi quickened his pace, seemingly having discovered something, and he became even more interested in the steles.
Gu An felt the same way. As time passed, he did not see any scenes related to the Heavenly Emperor, but he did learn about a Heavenly Dao Supreme Being.
Primordial Chaos Venerable Immortal!
This Primordial Chaos Venerable Immortal was the enemy of the Xianshen in the scenes, and his power was the source of their despair.
He wondered if this ancestor of the Primordial Void was still a Heavenly Dao Supreme Being of the Heavenly Court.
If so, wouldn’t the Primordial Chaos Venerable Immortal have lived longer than the Heavenly Emperor?
After all, according to Hongyazi, the Ancient Heavenly Court was governed by the previous Heavenly Emperor.
Gu An harbored many speculations but did not let it slow his pace.
...
Under the cover of night, hundreds of cultivators gathered on the barren plain, all meditating to heal their injuries. Li Ya was among them.
Li Ya still wore his black robes, with a blue-silver Qi-enshrouded treasure sword floating behind him. His face was pale, clearly indicating severe internal injuries.
He slowly opened his eyes and looked up. In the night sky, the stars were few and far between, making the heavens feel oppressively heavy.
He turned his head, and fear flickered in his eyes.
Following his gaze, at the horizon where Heaven and Earth met, there stood a towering figure, like a massive shadow enveloping half of the heavens and earth.
The place he found himself in was not Heaven and Earth, but the palm of a colossal hand!
The vast, desolate wilderness was merely a small part of the palm.
In the dim, oppressive void, a figure enveloped in Hei Qi was slowly advancing. It had a human-like form, and from its silhouette, it seemed to be wearing heavy armor with numerous terrifying, sharp spikes. In its right hand, it held what appeared to be empty at first glance, but in reality, Li Ya and hundreds of other cultivators were inside, appearing even smaller than specks of dust.
This terrifying figure moved through the void at a steady pace, neither too fast nor too slow.
Li Ya felt a chill just by looking at the figure, feeling as insignificant as the creatures on the ground.
His gaze involuntarily shifted to the distance, where a Yellow Robe Elder was meditating, surrounded by many people. The Elder's expression was also grim.
Not only Li Ya, but many others were also watching the Yellow Robe Elder.
The Yellow Robe Elder was the most powerful among the cultivators present, having reached the Heaven-Spanning Golden Immortal Realm!
Before Li Ya, who was still at the Xuan Yuan Free Spirit Immortal Realm, could imagine how strong a Balanced Heaven Immortal truly was, he had heard that it was comparable to a Celestial Deity.
The Yellow Robe Elder not only possessed profound cultivation but was also the Ancestor of a Vast World sect, opening a training ground in the Great Dao void. Li Ya had originally gone there to listen to his teachings, but during the session, he and the other listeners were captured by mysterious Demons.
When listening to the teachings, the Yellow Robe Elder's Dao Intent seemed unfathomably deep, and Li Ya couldn't even compare it to Gu An's realm.
When the Demons attacked, the Yellow Robe Elder summoned his magical treasures and demonstrated great Tong Sheng, shaking the entire universe. The various manifestations of the heavens and earth left Li Ya in awe. However, when the Demons countered, they directly suppressed the Yellow Robe Elder and the listeners.
A powerful Balanced Heaven Immortal was completely helpless.
Li Ya couldn't imagine how high the Dao cultivation of this Demon was.
He couldn't help but think of what the Solar Deity had said to Gu An when they faced each other.
Miaozhen Grand Luo Immortal Realm, perfected!
This was Gu An's realm.
After that, he had traveled Under Heaven and never heard the four words "Miaozhen Grand Luo Immortal", even when he reached the Heavenly Realms. Mentioning this realm's name still caused him an inexplicable sense of dread, making him too afraid to inquire further.
"Brother Gu, if you were here, could your Miaozhen Grand Luo Immortal cultivation defeat this Demon?"
Li Ya thought to himself, even though he trusted Gu An, he didn't have the confidence to say that Gu An was definitely stronger than this Demon.
The Yellow Robe Elder's Tong Sheng was so vast, as if he could summon the power of the Three Thousand Great Daos of the universe. Even now, recalling the scene, he found it hard to believe.
But when the Demon struck, everything ended.
The Demon's attack seemed casual, even more so than when Gu An dealt with the Dark Deity.
Li Ya yearned for Gu An to appear but was also afraid that if Gu An came, he might be drawn into deeper trouble.
"Li Ya, when will you truly be able to stand on your own? How long will you rely on Brother Gu? Have you ever thought about how Brother Gu got to where he is today?"
Li Ya clenched his teeth, hating his own weakness. In this critical moment, he was still hoping for Gu An to come to his aid.
Just then, a ray of light, like a beam of sunlight, burst forth from the darkness ahead, driving away the darkness and illuminating Li Ya and the hundreds of cultivators.
Everyone looked up, their faces brightened, and soon, some became excited.
In the strong light, a figure was approaching them, exuding an invincible aura just by its presence.
"The Heavenly Court Xuanmiao Immortal Lord is here. Demon, surrender at once!"
A loud, commanding voice echoed through the void, stirring the hearts of the hundreds of cultivators.
Li Ya felt a sense of shock.
The voice was somewhat familiar...
Xuanmiao?
