Chapter 330 Awakening
"Really?"
When An Xin heard Gu An's words, she was instantly excited, and the eyes of the Blood Prison Great Saint also turned fiery.
Indeed, the master would not be stingy with the treasures of the Immortal Path!Nôv(el)B\\jnn
After returning to the mountaintop, Gu An had An Xin start cultivating while he went back to the house alone.
Sitting on his bed, Gu An's gaze fell on Qingtian Peak. He first used his Divine Thought to erase any marks and restrictions within Qingtian Peak that made him wary.
The Immortal Spirit of Qingtian Peak was very submissive and did not resist Gu An; instead, it was quite jubilant.
After taking safety precautions, Gu An began to make Qingtian Peak recognize him as its master.
With the compliance of the Qingtian Immortal Spirit, it took Gu An less than an hour to refine the restrictions of Qingtian Peak and take control of the soul of the Qingtian Immortal Spirit, making it completely serve him.
With the Qingtian Immortal Spirit in hand, this would be the combat power of a Carefree Primordial Immortal!
Moreover, Gu An felt that the power contained in Qingtian Peak was greater than the Seven Stars Mirror, the Immortal King Crown, and the Divine Exotic City. The Immortal King Crown and Divine Exotic City had been damaged and needed a long time to recover.
The Seven Stars Mirror hadn't suffered much damage but was slightly weaker than Qingtian Peak, however, the difference was limited.
After all this, the corners of Gu An's mouth curved upward.
Next, it was like capturing a turtle in a jar!
Forget it, let me leave him hanging for a while. After all, he can't escape or pass any messages outside.
He pretended not to know that a Heavenly Demon was hidden inside Qingtian Peak, and the Qingtian Immortal Spirit was completely unaware.
During the process of making Qingtian Peak his own, Gu An peeked into the memory of the Qingtian Immortal Spirit. It spent most of its time either asleep or sealed by a strong force, unaware of the filth inside it.
Although unaware of the filth inside, the Qingtian Immortal Spirit was influenced by it. It inexplicably felt something attracting it at Dingtian Peak, thus it crashed towards Dingtian Peak.
If Gu An had not intervened, it planned to directly smash Dingtian Peak to force the alluring thing to reveal itself.
"From this perspective, the identity of the demon fetus below is not simple."
Gu An thought silently. He pondered whether or not to move the demon fetus elsewhere, but where could he move it to?
Moving it, if awakened prematurely, wouldn't that accelerate the catastrophe?
No matter, let it stay here. As for whether another Heavenly Demon will come later, he didn't care.
He would destroy any Heavenly Demon with lesser cultivation than his.
As for those with higher cultivation than his, if they could infiltrate the Great Heavenly Spirit Land, wouldn't the Holy Court have been penetrated long ago?
Gu An shrank Qingtian Peak into an accessory and hung it on his belt.
His ultimate elusive body was evolved from the practice of the Demon Shadow Divine Skill. Its main use now was to block all causality deduction, which also protected Qingtian Peak when it was attached to his body, making it indeducible.
It wasn't necessary to activate the ultimate elusive body to block causality deduction; after mastering it, he could block it permanently. In such a case, releasing some causality on the surface could easily misguide others' deductions.
The ultimate elusive body also had combat capabilities, allowing his physical soul to become elusive, dodging spells and Divine Skills, providing infinite uses in battle.
Gu An stood up, stretched lazily, and loosened his body.
Heavenly Demons, the Holy Court…
It's really hard to achieve true peace in this world.
Gu An reflected internally, yet he faced no pressure.
There's still much time ahead; take it slow. The conflicts of the moment mean little; who laughs last is what truly matters.
...
As the seasons changed, a new year arrived.
Just after the New Year, Gu An was in the forest instructing An Xin on Qi Absorption Cultivation.
The Stepping Path of Ages Step was too profound and enigmatic; even with Gu An's personal guidance, An Xin still found it difficult to master. The current goal for An Xin was to discover the patterns of the Stepping Path of Ages Step.
An Xin moved swiftly, appearing five steps away in an instant before stumbling and falling to the ground.
She sat on the ground, feeling dizzy and shaky, her eyes closed and mouth slightly open, which made Gu An want to laugh.
He didn't help An Xin regain her composure; this was a necessary path for her.
She stayed in that spot for nearly half an hour before fully regaining her senses.
Turning to Gu An, she gave a bitter smile and said, "Master, this technique is incredibly profound. Do I really need to learn it?"
Gu An, holding the Seven Stars Mirror like a fan, chuckled and said, "You must learn it. Just absorbing Qi is not enough, and besides, cultivating Divine Skills will enhance your understanding too."
An Xin made a mournful face but didn't give up. Instead, she stood up again, ready to continue practicing the Stepping Path of Ages Step.
The thought of the previous dizzy sensation made An Xin want to vomit.
She raised her hands, patted her face, and tried not to think about the discomfort.
At that moment, she turned her head and saw a golden glow in the sky outside the forest, rapidly stretching out and magnificent like the sunset.
Gu An also looked up, his expression calm.
Is it finally coming?
Meanwhile, overseas, on an island, Yang Jian and Heaven Sect stood side by side.
Yang Jian gazed at his right hand, having just crushed a golden jade stone given by Heaven Sect, with his palm covered by a golden sphere and tiny golden stars scattering into the air.
He appeared expressionless, yet he was extremely nervous inside.
Merging with his past memories, was he still himself?
Heaven Sect looked at him and comfortingly said, "Don't worry, this process won't be painful. I've already set up formations, and no one will disturb you."
Yang Jian looked up at the sky where the golden glow covered the sky, so beautiful.
"But this phenomenon…" Yang Jian hesitated.
Heaven Sect stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, this phenomenon covers a vast area, and you don't have to worry."
Yang Jian took a deep breath and refocused on his palm.
Then, the golden stars rising from his palm began to fly toward his face, eventually entering his eyes.
The wind picked up on the island as the world's spiritual energy surged towards Yang Jian.
The golden light in his palm brightened, illuminating his face while his eyes flickered with different scenes.
Seeing this, Heaven Sect smiled, slowly backing away to give Yang Jian space.
Elsewhere.
Inside Supreme Sect, Gu An could see the Heaven and Earth Rules enveloping Yang Jian, with Yin Yang Rules being the most intense. He couldn't understand the process, but he felt that Yang Jian wouldn't encounter any mishap. There was no other soul in that golden jade stone, so there was no risk of soul snatching.
"Master, why has the sky changed color?" An Xin curiously asked.
"Your fellow disciple is awakening his past memories," Gu An said nonchalantly as he gazed at the sky.
Past memories?
An Xin immediately became interested, and Gu An did not hide the truth, revealing Yang Jian's causality.
Hearing that Yang Jian was the reincarnation of a Holy King from the Holy Court, An Xin was even more shocked. Stay connected through empire
"No wonder he's so powerful, Master. Could my fellow senior brother also be the reincarnation of a great power?" An Xin asked, staring intently at Gu An, her eyes apprehensive.
"Probably not."
Gu An's answer left An Xin feeling disappointed.
If An Hao was a reincarnation of a great figure, that would mean she was not too bad; the problem was her comparison to An Hao.
"However, everyone might have a past life. Once you reach a certain realm, you will understand," Gu An said and then looked away.
He stood up and said, "Let's stop here for today."
Upon hearing this, An Xin's face revealed a relieved smile.
She followed Gu An's steps.
"Master, if Yang Jian awakens his past memories, does that mean he will become the Holy King again? Is the Holy King powerful?"
"What he becomes is up to him to decide. As for the power of a Holy King, let me tell you something. The Great Cold Demon Sect previously served a Holy King."
"Ah? A Holy King could command a sect like the Great Cold Demon Sect?"
"Don't be overly dramatic."
"Thinking about it now, having such a powerful Holy King as my junior brother feels like a dream."
"I'm telling you this, not for you to marvel, but for you to clearly know your own goals."
"Hehe, Master, I will practice diligently. With your teachings, what is a Holy King?"
The master and disciple continued chatting as they returned to the valley. Gu An used the power of causality to alter their conversation, so he wasn't worried about exposure.
After reaching the Divine Thought True Immortal Realm, Gu An studied causality and destiny the most and controlled his own power of causality more and more skillfully.
Meanwhile, every being in the Broken Sea Domain looked up at the heavenly phenomenon.
Gu An even saw some powerful figures flying out from the Holy Land where the Holy Court was located, rushing towards the Broken Sea Domain.
Fortunately, Yang Jian was not awakening in the Taicang Continent, otherwise the continent would face trouble again.
The golden phenomenon lasted a day and a night and by noon the next day...
Shen Zhen came to visit Gu An. After closing the door, she started setting up a formation and busied herself for a while before coming to sit at the table.
"Yo, still reading Green Hero Travel? Why not read my Supreme Secret Records?" Shen Zhen teased.
Gu An replied, "Supreme Secret Records is too short."
The implication was, when will you write something new?
Shen Zhen seemed not to understand. She took out a scroll from her storage bag and spread it out on the table.
She had actually drawn the golden phenomenon from yesterday. The golden sky enveloped the land and mountains, showcasing the majestic atmosphere of the immense landscape.
Gu An noticed that as the scroll was unrolled, the Heaven and Earth Rules gradually drew near.
Once again, she used her painting to move the Heaven and Earth Rules.
"Yesterday's phenomenon was no simple matter; it gave me an indescribable feeling..." Shen Zhen began to share her thoughts on her painting process.
However, Gu An caught a special power emerging from the depths of the Heaven and Earth Rules.
This power somewhat resembled the inheritance left by Heaven Sect.
Could it be that Yang Jian's past life was also related to the Heavenly Dao represented by Heaven Sect?
Besides this power, Gu An was interested in the Reincarnation Rules.
This painting also attracted the Reincarnation Rules.
Heaven and Earth Rules are omnipresent, only elusive to mortal spirits. In the eyes of a Divine Thought True Immortal, Heaven and Earth comprise many layers. Beneath the Heaven and Earth Rules lies even deeper forces of order.
After Shen Zhen introduced her painting process, she proudly asked, "What do you think? It seems you've sensed my painting intent; won't you comment?"
Gu An focused on the scroll and replied, "It indeed makes one easily lose their mind. You are very impressive."
"That's right!"
Shen Zhen raised her jaw, extremely proud.
Just as Gu An was about to speak, the scroll suddenly burst into flames, startling Shen Zhen as she tried to extinguish it.
"Don't approach! This fire is not right!" Gu An said sternly, stopping Shen Zhen from acting rashly.
