Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses - Chapter 892 - 884: 10 trillion years life span
Chapter 892: Chapter 884: 10 trillion years life span
Upon hearing Gu An’s words, the Ghost Mother of Ephemera became even more excited and hurriedly thanked him.
At the same time, she was startled in her heart.
The master wants to leave the Celestial Spirit Great World?
It makes sense; after sheltering the Celestial Spirit Great World so many times, she too would feel tired.
Perhaps without such a powerful Daoist lineage like Wushi, the Celestial Spirit Great World could have fewer major troubles.
This was what the Ghost Mother of Ephemera thought, and after a few simple words with Gu An, he left, while she watched his departing figure and stood thinking for a long time.
After contemplating for a long time, the Ghost Mother of Ephemera decided not to think about it. After all, it’s fine as long as she follows the master.
She had been with Wushi for over a billion years and never felt bored, because here, she could constantly pursue the Great Dao and never tire.
The process of enlightenment was more satisfying to her than any pleasure in the world.
…
In the Underworld, the world was dim, shrouded in thick fog.
Zhang Buku and Xu You followed Emperor Bone Profound Venerable. Ahead loomed a tremendously majestic mountain, with a bottomless gorge in the middle, towards which they were heading.
As they walked, Zhang Buku turned to look at a pile of white bones by the roadside, where two ghost souls seemed to be only two or three years old, timidly looking at Zhang Buku.
“Don’t look at them; despite their harmless appearance, they are the most terrifying cause and effect deep in the Nine Netherworlds.”
The voice of Emperor Bone Profound Venerable came from ahead, prompting Zhang Buku to withdraw his gaze.
Xu You, looking at the back of Emperor Bone Profound Venerable, frowned and asked, “We are already deep within the Underworld. Though I’ve never been here, this place is called the Immortal God Forbidden Area. Who exactly are you looking for?”
He had already integrated into the destiny of the Dark Heavenly Court, but he could no longer see through what the Dark Heavenly Court intended to do.
Revenge against the Celestial Court?
Replace the Celestial Court?
Xu You always felt the Dark Heavenly Court was harboring an even greater plot, as if they were searching for something.
“This is indeed the Immortal God Forbidden Area because it was born before the Heavenly Dao; it is the source of Reincarnation. This place has no hour, no cause and effect, and in the past, it was nothing. But since the creation of the Heavenly Dao, more and more souls have fled here wanting to escape Reincarnation, gradually leading to changes in this place.”
Emperor Bone Profound Venerable walked ahead, saying softly.
“This place is called the Nine Netherworld Death Realm, an area where the Great Dao cannot intervene. There’s a supreme being here. I represent the Dark Heavenly Court in inviting him to step into the world, and also to seek opportunities for you two.”
Emperor Bone Profound Venerable’s words made Zhang Buku and Xu You even more curious.
Zhang Buku couldn’t help asking, “A supreme being? Someone comparable to the Heavenly Emperor Tai Shang and Ancestor Master Wushi?”
Thousands of years ago, the battle between Heavenly Emperor Tai Shang and Ancestor Master Wushi could be felt even by those like them, deeply engaged in the Great Dao’s dimensions.
That overwhelming aura made them feel dwarfed in comparison.
“Far surpassing them, only that Celestial Emperor can compare.”
Emperor Bone Profound Venerable answered thus, pausing for a moment before continuing, “Heavenly Emperor Tai Shang is indeed powerful, considered the most outstanding Son of Heaven. But compared to the Celestial Emperor, he’s still far behind, whereas the being deep in the Nine Netherworld Death Realm is so powerful that even the Celestial Emperor couldn’t do anything to him. He is called the Nine Nether Emperor, and supposedly, his will was born at the beginning of Chaos, later reshaping his body with the resentment qi of the Nine Netherworld Death Realm, with unfathomable Dao practice.”
The Nine Nether Emperor!
Xu You was hearing this name for the first time, and just the fact that he was born at the beginning of Chaos made him feel immense pressure.
Once a Son of Heaven, Xu You had a deep understanding of the Great Dao, aware that many powerful beings and even Daoist lineages existed before the birth of the Heavenly Dao. That vast Chaos had witnessed countless golden ages, but for reasons unknown, Chaos had become desolate, as if only the Heavenly Dao had sentient beings, while within Chaos were beings exiled by the Heavenly Dao.
Zhang Buku frowned and asked, “If he’s truly that powerful, why would he remain here?”
Emperor Bone Profound Venerable snorted without looking back, “Hmph, do you think all powerful beings want to touch the Heavenly Dao? You better abandon that thought in the future. The Dark Heavenly Court is here for revenge, but for those like the Nine Nether Emperor, the affairs of the Heavenly Dao hold no allure. He could even create a similar destiny order to the Heavenly Dao, but he sees no need in doing so.”
Zhang Buku wanted to ask, “If that’s the case, how can you persuade the Nine Nether Emperor?” But as the words lingered on his lips, he felt that asking was meaningless.
This matter was beyond his ability to influence.
Instead of questioning this, he should think about how to survive the next calamity.
The more Emperor Bone Profound Venerable nurtured him, the more it felt like a scheme.
There’s no unsolicited goodwill in the world, especially since Emperor Bone Profound Venerable was entirely skeletal, making Zhang Buku suspect that the other party wanted to possess him.
Strengthening his body as much as possible, then taking possession of it.
Zhang Buku had heard and seen many such stories, so he never let down his guard.
The three of them fell into silence, drawing nearer to the gorge ahead. Zhang Buku looked up but couldn’t see the summit. It felt as if they were walking toward the edge of the world.
…
The news that the Immortal Gods were no longer slaughtering Mortal Spirits and had truly begun to clear out Evil Demons reached the Celestial Spirit Great World, allowing the major sects and imperial dynasties to finally breathe a sigh of relief. They shifted their attention from external matters to internal development.
In times of peace, time always flies by quickly.
Ten thousand years passed in a flash.
On this afternoon, in Gu An’s courtyard, second-generation disciples gathered, setting up wine tables. They were very happy because such days were rare, and they awaited Gu An’s return.
While waiting, they talked about worldly affairs, including the Immortal Demon war in the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
Nowadays, there was interaction between the Three Thousand Great Worlds, so news about them also spread here.
The term “Dark Heavenly Court” had entered the sight of all beings. They were curious about the origins of the Dark Heavenly Court and its relationship with the Celestial Court.
Until Gu An walked into the courtyard, all the disciples rose.
“Master, where did you go playing again?” the Celestial Demon Child laughingly asked. She recently broke through to Innate Golden Immortal and often wore a smile.
Gu An carried two jars of Reincarnation Wine, smiling, “I took a stroll around the Tai Cang Dynasty.”
The Ghost Mother of Ephemera and An Zizai immediately approached to take the wine from his hands.
Blood Prison Great Saint shouted from the side, saying how two jars weren’t enough to drink, to which Gu An responded that less is for better savoring.
Gu An sat at the main table, and An Zizai immediately led others to serve the already prepared fine wines and delicacies.
The Celestial Cyan sat beside Gu An, deliberately leaning closer, curiously asking, “Master, what day is it today? Why gather us here?”
Gu An opened the Attribute Panel while smilingly replying, “Since leaving the Supreme Sect, we haven’t had many Spring Festivals, and recently everyone has made progress in cultivation, so I thought of gathering everyone together.”
[Name: Gu An]
[Life Span: 160,706,032/1,000,000,000,051,336,914,607]
[Physique: Creation Essence Body]
[Cultivation Level: Ultimate Merging Dao Venerable Emperor Realm Perfection]
…
Ten trillion trillion years of life!
Gu An was in high spirits today as he had gathered so many years of life in under ten thousand years, although he regretted not triggering the hint to upgrade the life span function.
The reason he convened his disciples was to celebrate this achievement, as tomorrow he planned to make a breakthrough, hoping for a stroke of good luck.
The legendary Saint Realm was proving difficult for him to comprehend, so he decided to take a shortcut.
In less than ten thousand years, he had collected such an amount of life span, which put him in a great mood, despite not triggering the life span function upgrade hint.
He decided to gather all the disciples to discuss this before his departure, as he hoped to achieve success in the upcoming breakthrough.
