Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Sword Venerable Shakes the World, Holy Land Saves the World

Rumble, rumble—

Dust flew in the air as Xuan Tianyi flew out from the ruins. He ascended to the sky, overlooking the scene below, his eyes widened.

His gaze crossed the chasm created by the Taoist of Immortality. On the other side of the land, the Demon Ancestor’s figure was no longer visible. The horrifying demonic might from before had completely disappeared. All he could see was rolling dust and demonic mist, the area appearing like a chaotic world.

“Was that a sword array just now?”

Xuan Tianyi frowned, thinking to himself. The Sword Venerable Fudao hadn’t appeared, yet he was able to vanquish the Demon Ancestor with one move, truly frightening him.

This was his first real encounter with the might of the Sword Venerable Fudao. Even on the ocean, he had never seen such a sword array.

Other great cultivators also gathered from all directions. They were unharmed, only thrown off by the force. They were very excited.

“The Demon Ancestor is dead! Is the demonic calamity finally over?”

“Hahaha, we finally won, and we didn’t have to die!”

“The Sword Venerable Fudao is truly too powerful, even among the immortals there are still gaps.”

“Why would someone so powerful hide their identity?”

“Ask yourself that. For someone of his caliber, if he were to step in a few times, it’s already commendable. If his true identity were revealed, you’d all come begging to him whenever trouble arises.”

The great cultivators were very excited, some even burst out laughing. The years of pent-up aggression were finally released.

Liang Canghai, Sect Leader of Cangtian Sect, spoke: “Everyone, I suggest that the various sects of the three dynasties should all erect statues of the Sword Venerable Fudao, not to curry favor, but to let the world remember his benevolence forever!”

Hearing this, the great cultivators of other sects all applauded.

The Supreme Elder Xuan Quan frowned, hesitated to speak.

Xuan Tianyi glanced at Liang Canghai and snorted coldly, but said nothing.

Subsequently, under Liang Canghai’s orders, they started patrolling the area to ensure that the Demon Ancestor was truly dead.

Far away in the Third Medicine Valley, Gu An was also using his divine sense to search the battlefield. The Demon Ancestor left behind no demon core or demon treasure upon death.

This guy died so worthlessly.

Could it be he could be resurrected later?

Gu An suppressed his thoughts and joined his disciples in discussing the strength of the Sword Venerable Fudao.

Now it depends on how the Seven Stars Spirit Realm reacts!

The Seven Stars Spirit Realm claimed to be a Holy Land, they shouldn’t act recklessly. That Startling Immortal Lin had not revealed his true name; even the disciples of the Supreme Sect didn’t know who he was.

…

The fall of the Demon Ancestor!

This news spread throughout the world in just two days. The reason it spread so quickly was that the Demon Ancestor had previously called out to the Sword Venerable Fudao when he moved south.

The Sword Venerable Fudao’s prestige reached unprecedented heights across the three dynasties!

Although the rampaging demons had not completely dispersed, the demon kings were already scared and had withdrawn from the lands of the three dynasties, greatly boosting the morale of the human race!

Everyone in the world sang praises of the Sword Venerable Fudao!

When Gu An disguised as the Green Hero traveled through the mortal world, in every city, village, and town, people were discussing the Sword Venerable Fudao, much to his surprise. He hadn’t expected the news to spread so fast.

After the fall of the Demon Ancestor, demons were still numerous, indicating that the true controller of the demons was not the Demon Ancestor.

However, as long as the demon kings retreated, the three dynasties would eventually triumph. Gu An did not remain idle, seizing the time to accumulate life spans.

The ability to seize life spans was his greatest secret, so he couldn’t use the identity of the Sword Venerable Fudao to massacre, mainly because the Sword Venerable Fudao seldom slaughtered demons before. It was more reasonable to do so as the Green Hero, as there were many heroes like him in the current world.

Days passed by.

A month later, Gu An’s life span broke eight million years.

On this day, Lv Baitian came to the Third Medicine Valley to find him. Gu An received Lv Baitian in a pavilion.

Lv Baitian was very happy, constantly praising the Sword Venerable Fudao. The Sword Venerable Fudao appeared during his tenure as the head of the Supreme Sect, and he successfully retained the Sword Venerable Fudao. The Supreme Elders were very pleased with his actions, and Xuan Tianyi also stated that he would not compete for the position of sect leader.

“The demonic calamity is virtually over. Besides the Sword Venerable Fudao slaying the Demon Ancestor, the Holy Land has also opened its doors, sending disciples down the mountain to save the world,” Lv Baitian lightly shook his teacup, smiling.

Gu An asked: “The Holy Land? I heard from the Third Miss that the Holy Land never intervenes in the affairs of the continent. Why did they intervene this time?”

Lv Baitian explained: “It is said that the formation of the demonic calamity relates not only to the Demon Ancestor but also to an ancient demon known as the Evil Demon. The Evil Demon was sealed underground by the Holy Land. When the Demon Ancestor fell and the demons continued to rampage, the Holy Land realized something was wrong. After investigating, although the Evil Demon remains sealed, his demonic qi seeped into demon bodies through nature’s spiritual energy, causing their corruption into demons.”

“Because the lands of the three dynasties lie in the southernmost part of the continent, furthest from the Evil Demon, the human race was not corrupted. The Holy Land also revealed that the Evil Demon grows increasingly powerful and will inevitably emerge in the future, bringing another catastrophe. The Holy Land will face it alongside the various sects of the human race, as they consider it their responsibility for not completely eradicating the Evil Demon.”

Hearing this, Gu An almost developed a sense of admiration for the Seven Stars Spirit Realm.

Truly flawless and impeccable!

If Gu An hadn’t searched through so many memories, based on Lv Baitian’s words alone, the Holy Land indeed seemed great.

But he knew it was all orchestrated by the Holy Land themselves.

It was also a good thing. The Holy Land sending disciples to save the world indicated that the Seven Stars Spirit Realm cared about its image and wouldn’t act recklessly.

It also meant that the Seven Stars Spirit Realm feared the Sword Venerable Fudao, unwilling to confront him directly, giving Gu An more time to grow.

Still, Gu An couldn’t let his guard down; he had to watch out for the Seven Stars Spirit Realm investigating him in secret.

Gu An, feigning joy, asked: “That is indeed good news. The Holy Land must be really powerful. Do other sects know of this?”

“Yes, all sects received a message from the Holy Land’s envoys. It’s estimated that within five years, demons will be no more, and the three dynasties might even expand into the demon lands. For the Taicang Dynasty and the Supreme Sect, it could be a bit troublesome,” Lv Baitian nodded.

Gu An was surprised and asked: “What kind of trouble?”

“With the Great Jiang Dynasty and the Tianwei Dynasty standing between the Taicang Dynasty and the demon lands, it makes it hard for us to mine spirit mines or seek opportunities in the demon lands. Over time, the Taicang Dynasty will be swallowed by the other two dynasties, weakening the Supreme Sect’s influence in the immortal cultivation world. I’m planning to support Li Xuandao to accomplish this.”

Lv Baitian spoke worriedly, then began sipping tea.

Gu An wanted to say, you guys are really persistent.

The demonic calamity isn’t over, and you’re already thinking about dividing the demon lands?

But he couldn’t interfere; the Supreme Sect indeed needed to grow stronger, which would help him to continue surviving.

Lv Baitian started discussing the Supreme Sect’s upcoming plans with a sincere attitude. Clearly, he still hadn’t given up on recruiting Gu An as a disciple.

According to him, once the demonic calamity was resolved, the Supreme Elders would no longer travel south but lead the Supreme Sect’s disciples to explore the demon lands, constantly enhancing the Supreme Sect’s foundation.

They even considered the Cangtian Sect as a hypothetical enemy, and the Cangtian Sect felt the same. Lv Baitian found the Cangtian Sect’s over-the-top praise of the Sword Venerable Fudao nauseating.

“Do they want to align with the Sword Venerable Fudao? Dream on! Gu An, why don’t you write a book with the Sword Venerable Fudao as the protagonist, just like Pan An’s works which spread throughout the world!” Lv Baitian looked at Gu An, seriously.

Write about myself again?

Gu An wasn’t so narcissistic. He immediately shook his head: “No way, I don’t want to write books for others anymore. Besides, the karma of the Sword Venerable Fudao is too significant. If I write it and the book becomes famous, it’d attract endless trouble. Sect Leader, do you want to get me killed? Not to mention, you wouldn’t be able to defend against the enemies of the Sword Venerable Fudao.”

Lv Baitian agreed, temporarily setting the idea aside.

After chatting for a long time, Lv Baitian left regretfully.

Gu An didn’t stay idle; he left the Third Medicine Valley, spent an hour in the Mystic Valley, and then disguised himself as the Green Hero again to descend the mountain.

…

Time flew by, and another month passed.

Gu An celebrated his ninety-fifth birthday; he was getting closer to a hundred years old.

On this day, Xuan Tianyi visited Gu An. He pulled Gu An, who was still sowing seeds in the garden, back to the pavilion, looking mysterious.

“What’s the matter, so urgent?” Gu An asked, seeing Xuan Tianyi set up restrictions inside the room.

Sёarᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Xuan Tianyi turned to the desk and took a book from his storage bag, slamming it onto the table.

Gu An looked closely, his eyelids twitching.

Sword Venerable Travelogue!

Good heavens!

He immediately said: “Are you crazy? Daring to mess with the Sword Venerable Fudao? Aren’t you afraid he’ll come after you?”

Xuan Tianyi raised an eyebrow: “I’m just writing a book. What trouble can it bring?”

“Be careful, the Sword Venerable Fudao might tap your shoulder at midnight!”

“Oh? That’s a nice idea, could add to the atmosphere.”

“No, I’m serious, don’t mess around!”

Gu An became anxious. The Supreme Secret Records had already tainted his real name, and he didn’t want his other identity to be tarnished too.

Lv Baitian was such a beast, unable to find me, so he asked Xuan Tianyi to write?

If he had known, Gu An should have taken the task himself!

Seeing Gu An’s anxiety, Xuan Tianyi felt moved. This brother was not a mistake!

“Don’t worry, this time I changed the style. I’m imitating your books. Take a look first.” Xuan Tianyi waved his hand, assuredly.

Gu An immediately picked up the Sword Venerable Travelogue and seriously read through it.

Xuan Tianyi walked to the bookshelf, wanting to see what books Gu An usually read.

A long while passed.

Gu An put down the Sword Venerable Travelogue, letting out a sigh of relief. He turned to Xuan Tianyi and said: “It’s not bad, indeed it doesn’t have so many romantic affairs. The Sword Venerable Fudao is now revered by cultivators worldwide. You can mythologize him, but not degrade him.”

Xuan Tianyi turned around, glaring at him: “What do you mean? You think the Green Hero is degrading?”

“By the way, I’ve always been curious. Is the Green Hero Travelogue made up or real experiences?”

“Half true, half false.”

The anger in Xuan Tianyi’s eyes dissipated significantly, replaced by embarrassment.

“Which half is true, and which half is false?” Gu An frowned.

It turned out to be true!

Do you think you’re worthy of Ms. Zi? That night in the abandoned temple, you two were so…

Gu An suddenly wanted to find a knife to poke Xuan Tianyi.

Xuan Tianyi fake coughed: “Let’s talk about this book. Don’t get distracted. Give me some advice. After all, Pan An knows the cultivators of the world well. I heard other sects are also sending people to write books, imitating Pan An, to win over the Sword Venerable Fudao. Our Supreme Sect can’t lose in book writing!”
