Chapter 363 Peeking into the Future

“Master, I can’t train anymore…”

An Xin approached Gu An, speaking feebly.

Gu An came back to his senses, nodded slightly, then stood up and took An Xin and Blood Prison Great Saint away.

“Master, do you think the Immortal Dynasty will fight with the Holy Court? Everyone outside is saying that great changes are coming,” An Xin asked curiously as she walked beside Gu An.

The ancestor of Void Illusions blessed all beings, causing the status of the Immortal Dynasty in the hearts of all beings to soar. Now, in the eyes of most beings, the Immortal Dynasty was even stronger than the Holy Court.

Once the Immortal Dynasty defeated the Holy Court, a new era would begin!

“Perhaps,” Gu An answered, “but it has nothing to do with us. The Taicang Continent can’t participate in such a struggle yet.”

Looking at the lights in Outer Heaven, Gu An suddenly felt that he delayed the conflict between the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court.

Now the entire Great Heavenly Spirit Land feared the Silent Destruction Domain and dared not rashly go to war.

Gu An suddenly felt very great, thinking that his breakthrough could help maintain peace in the world.

Perhaps such peace could only last a few decades, a hundred or two hundred years, but mortal spirits could only live that long.

An Xin continued to inquire; she was very curious about who was stronger between the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court. Gu An didn’t make a judgment, his answers were equivocal, but this didn’t hinder her imagination. Seeing that her master didn’t want to speak more, she started chatting with the Blood Prison Great Saint.

In the following days, Gu An’s divine thought explored the Silent Destruction Domain daily, looking for the right time to breakthrough.

The commotion he had previously caused was too great, making powerful beings linger near the Silent Destruction Domain. Not only was the Great Heavenly Spirit Land tense, but the forces within the Silent Destruction Domain were also nervous, thinking that the Great Heavenly Spirit Land was going to invade them.

As autumn passed and winter came, the year’s flying snow arrived on schedule.

In the early winter.

Gu An took An Xin to Mortal World Peak, and An Xin walked to one side to cultivate on her own.

It wasn’t long before Zhu Xinglan came to visit Gu An.

“Master, there have been thieves on Mortal World Peak lately,” Zhu Xinglan said with a solemn expression.

Gu An raised an eyebrow, asking in surprise, “What kind of thieves? Were there any casualties?”

“No, but many garden areas had medicinal herbs harvested, including our Mortal World Peak’s Medicine Garden. Fortunately, only harvesting was done, and there was no damage. Even the Supreme Elder of the Main Peak couldn’t find the real culprit. Also, I heard that there were strange phenomena beyond Outer Heaven recently. Do you think it could be the work of the Heavenly Demon?” Zhu Xinglan said anxiously.

The higher you stand, the more dangers you see. With external threats from the Heavenly Demons and internal tensions between the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court at knifepoint, how could he not think more?

Moreover, a Heavenly Demon was hidden beneath Mortal World Peak!

Gu An frowned and pretended to calculate with his fingers.

Zhu Xinglan seemed to think of something, adding, “Moreover, other sects have encountered similar situations to Mortal World Peak, with medicinal herbs mysteriously harvested without anyone knowing who the perpetrator is.”

Gu An asked, “How many times has this happened on Mortal World Peak?”

“Just once.”

“Then let’s wait and see, it might just be a false alarm.”

“Perhaps.”

Zhu Xinglan felt it made sense and then began to speak about the situation of Dingtian Peak.

Not long after, Zhu Xinglan left, and Gu An began to enjoy some leisure time, not in a rush to harvest herbs since the recent situation was tense.

A life span of ten billion years should be enough for him to breakthrough.

After reading for a while, Gu An’s gaze turned towards Outer Heaven.

He saw a great battle unfolding within the Silent Destruction Domain, the combatants were divine thought True Immortals, and they were not beings from the Great Heavenly Spirit Land.

Beings born in the Silent Destruction Domain differ distinctly from those of the Great Heavenly Spirit Land in terms of aura, so the Heavenly Demon was easy to identify.

Gu An watched the battle, curious to see how the divine thought True Immortals of the Silent Destruction Domain compared to the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor in strength.

The True Immortals fighting resembled the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor in the simulation, each strike deadly, showing no mercy, clearly bearing deep hatred.

After watching for a while, Gu An felt they were not as strong as the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor; it was unlikely that even both together could defeat the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor.

No wonder the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor could travel from the Yin Yang Domain and even penetrate the Holy Court and leave triumphantly.

Gu An speculated that the Reincarnation Path Emperor and the Holy Court had some causal connection, otherwise, the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor wouldn’t have been able to steal the Reincarnation Path Emperor’s Soul Jade from within the Holy Court.

He waited until he took An Xin back to the Supreme Sect, and those two divine thought True Immortals were still undecided in their battle.

As night fell.

Gu An read in the attic, a stove nearby with a pot of wine brewing on it, this atmosphere in the cold winter felt very warm.

The door was pushed open, and Ji Xiaoyu walked straight in.

“Why didn’t you knock?”

Gu An didn’t look up as he responded, already having an idea in his mind.

That was to capture Xuan Tianyi, lock him in a small black room, and make him write books every day, what great potential for writing, cultivating immortality was wasting him.

Ji Xiaoyu closed the door and then sat down at the table, starting by saying, “Your temperament has changed somewhat recently, are you cultivating some miracle skill?”

Gu An glanced at her and said, “Because I love to read, books nourish the spirit.”

Ji Xiaoyu smiled and looked at Green Hero Travelogue, then said, “Such books can nourish the spirit? It’s a good thing your cultivation level isn’t high, otherwise, you’d surely become a disaster for the world.”

Gu An put away Green Hero Travelogue, coughed, and asked, “Is there something you need?”

Since Ji Xiaoyu absorbed the Soul Jade brought by the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor, her cultivation level had been rising faster and faster, and now she was at the ninth layer of the Void Crossing Realm.

Be aware she was only two hundred and sixty-three years old!

“I’m planning to leave for a few years and will leave tomorrow morning,” Ji Xiaoyu said as she looked around the room.

“What are you going to do?”

“Breakthrough.”

“Another breakthrough? What realm are you at now?”

Seeing Gu An’s shocked expression, the corners of Ji Xiaoyu’s mouth lifted, and with a soft voice, she said, “Void Crossing Realm, ninth layer, ready to break through to the Unification Realm.”

Gu An’s eyes widened, muttering, “To catch up to Wu Jue.”

“Who told you not to cultivate diligently? Our gap will only widen further,” Ji Xiaoyu said with a faint grievance.

She had thought Gu An’s change in temperament was due to cultivation, only to be disappointed.

Hearing this, Gu An argued, “I am still Nascent Soul Realm, a Nascent Soul Realm at four hundred years old, how can I not be considered a genius? I was just born in the wrong era, if I had lived a few hundred years earlier, the Supreme Sect would have made much of me.”

Ji Xiaoyu shook her head, laughing, and said, “Have you ever thought that the reason you have the achievements you do today is because the Supreme Sect has grown stronger? When comparing talent, you should compare with those around you, not just yourself.”

Gu An grinned awkwardly, unable to reply.

Seeing his expression, Ji Xiaoyu’s heart softened, and she didn’t pursue the topic further but instead asked, “Is there anything you need? I can bring it back for you.”

“That won’t be necessary; I don’t need anything.”

The two began to chat leisurely, discussing whatever came to mind, neither feeling awkward.

This feeling was like that of an old married couple…

Ahem!

What am I thinking about!

Gu An cursed in his mind, then started to probe Ji Xiaoyu’s karma. After reaching the ninth layer of the Free Immortal Realm, his karmic and life path cultivation became even stronger. He could see the development of Ji Xiaoyu’s life path for the next thousand years.

Although Ji Xiaoyu’s fate had many variables, there were also overlaps with others.

That was, she would be involved in the great war between the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court!

In the future, the whole world, including the Supreme Sect, would get swept up in this conflict. The Supreme Sect supported the Holy Court because Sword Venerable Fudao had joined the Holy Court, and the Holy Court continuously tried to tie the Supreme Sect to their chariot.

Gu An could see the future through the beings of the Supreme Sect, and he had no thoughts of preventing or changing it; rather, he felt a sense of detachment.

At first glance, all beings lived according to a heavenly-scripted drama, but he could foresee everything and had the power to change it, a feeling wonderfully sublime.

After chatting for an hour, Ji Xiaoyu finally left.

Gu An then stood up and went to the stove, lifting the wine jug to pour himself some wine.

Ji Xiaoyu was preparing for a breakthrough, and he was also ready for his own; it was truly a double celebration, tonight deserved celebration.

The next morning, Ji Xiaoyu left Third Medicine Valley.

After joining his disciples for training, Gu An also left on his own. He stayed at Mystic Valley for a while before departing.

Using his ultimate art to turn his body into illusion, he concealed his form, and combining the cosmic path divine skill to hide his own aura and karma, he directly crossed through the light layer of Outer Heaven, unnoticed by any Great Cultivator, and flew towards the Silent Destruction Domain.

This time, Gu An headed in another direction.

Soon, he entered the Silent Destruction Domain and landed in a nebula.

He could sense beings roving in all directions, those two divine thought True Immortals still locked in battle.

He couldn’t manage that much anymore; he had to breakthrough as soon as possible.

Settling into a meditative pose, he activated his Life Span Barrier, then accessed his Attribute Panel.

[Name: Gu An]

[Life Span: 419/1,004,613,224]

[Physique: Mixed Origin Refining Void Body]

[Cultivation Level: Free Immortal Realm, Ninth Layer]

…

A life span of ten billion years should be enough for a successful breakthrough, right?

Gu An suddenly felt worried; he had decided this time to not enhance his divine skills or cultivation techniques any further but to directly attempt the breakthrough.

After all, there’s no limit to enhancement in various aspects, and he was more concerned with ascending realms. There was no need to wait any longer.

Never mind!

A direct breakthrough; if ten billion years of life span isn’t enough, then he’ll just have to wait more!

Gu An’s expression hardened, his gaze lingering on his cultivation level section.

Invest one billion years of life span!

[You undergo energy absorption cultivation for two million years, using the Eternal Infinite Skill’s great accomplishment to forcefully attack the Tao Fruit Realm, begin Tribulation Crossing, you couldn’t endure the Heavenly Dao Taiyi Divine Element Grand Tribulation, the Tribulation Crossing failed]

[You undergo energy absorption cultivation for four million years, using the Eternal Infinite Skill’s great accomplishment to forcefully attack the Tao Fruit Realm, begin Tribulation Crossing, you couldn’t endure the Heavenly Dao Taiyi Divine Element Grand Tribulation, the Tribulation Crossing failed]

Well, well!

Two million years for one Tribulation Crossing?

That’s a huge gap!

Gu An’s eyelids twitched, but thinking of Long Zhan’s tremendous strength after his successful breakthrough, he felt slightly relieved.

What are two million years? He had a ten billion-year life span and could afford the gamble!

One prompt after another jumped out, Gu An deliberately only looked at the length of the prompts.

No changes at all!

Until one billion years were exhausted, he still hadn’t broken through.

Gu An took a deep breath and invested another billion years of life span!
