BXBX NOVEL Chapter 273: Chapter 273 Please Forgive Me, Senior!
There were joys, and there were sorrows.
It was as if he were observing the lives of all beings, countless images passing before his eyes, an overwhelming sea of scenes that would drive an ordinary immortal to insanity.
Gu An was different; he was undergoing a transformation into a Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma. At first, he felt some discomfort, but gradually he adapted, even beginning to catch glimpses of destiny within the endless visions.
The Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma could perceive destiny, and destiny could form fate, which meant the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma could see the fate of most beings.
Destiny was based on cause and effect, yet it independently formed rules.
A person's life intersected with their surrounding environment; different choices created different life paths. Choices were cause and effect, and the paths they formed were destiny. However, unlike cause and effect, destiny also involved factors beyond cause and effect, such as natural disasters.
Destiny was based on the rules of heaven and earth, the choices of cause and effect in a person's life.
Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal and Carefree Primordial Immortal delved into the Way of Cause and Effect, while Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma studied the Dao of Destiny.
Observing the fate of all beings, comprehending the true essence of destiny!
Gu An's consciousness immersed itself in this, his soul constantly transforming, his cultivation level continuously increasing.
Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma Realm Second Layer!
Third Layer!
Fourth Layer!
The cliff beneath Gu An collapsed, and he fell along with it, disappearing into the swirling dust.
Under the blood-colored sky, the figures of Divine Exotic Resentful Ghosts flitted by, thunderclouds roiling, and in the clouds, faintly visible, were the massive forms of evil ghosts as large as mountain ranges.
After a full two ancient hours, the area finally calmed down, but the spiritual energy between heaven and earth had also become thin.
By the sea, the nine Divine Exotic Ghost Kings around the stele all breathed a sigh of relief.
The anomalies were finally over, and during this process, they had not encountered any attacks.
Perhaps it was truly a disturbance in the rules of heaven and earth, rather than an attack from a strong enemy.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm meditated in mid-air, eyes closed, brow furrowed.
His divine sense continually scanned the various parts of the Divine Exotic Realm, inspecting every inch of land, but he could not detect any anomalies, and even he, the Realm Master, did not know where the spiritual energy had descended.
This made him very uneasy, feeling he was losing control over the Divine Exotic Realm.
Even if it was just a disturbance in the rules of heaven and earth, there must be a reason behind it, and he did not know what it was.
He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on the nine Divine Exotic Ghost Kings below, his eyes flickering.
Could it be that these fellows had offended someone, and the other party was warning him?
...
Amidst the vast dust, Gu An sat cross-legged on the ground, the Life Span Barrier did not isolate the dust, but the dust could not approach him. His entire being emitted seven-colored radiance, and the golden pattern on his forehead shone with golden light, like an eye floating before his forehead.
His cultivation had already reached the Ninth Layer of the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma Realm!
The reason he did not open his eyes was because he was carefully comprehending the mysteries of the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma.
His soul had already transformed into the Immortal Soul of Wondrous Dharma; as long as the soul existed, the physical body could perish and still be restored. This was the powerful aspect of the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma.
However, the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma still had a Heavenly Destiny, meaning its life span had limits, something he could clearly sense through his insights into the Dao of Destiny.
After a long time.
He slowly opened his eyes, and the golden pattern on his forehead flickered, then absorbed the illusory Primordial Divine Eye into the golden pattern.
This golden pattern made him appear more divine.
He could not yet absorb it into his body unless he used a spell to conceal it.
After some thought, he decided to leave it as it was. After all, with the All Things Form and Energy Art, no one would be able to see through his Primordial Divine Eye.
Gu An called up the attribute panel, and his life span was only a little more than two million two hundred thousand years left.
The Life Span Barrier consumed too much!
Gu An took a deep breath, stood up, and turned his head to look.
He had already spotted Impermanence Tian, so he immediately used the Nine Extremes Yin Yang Body, transforming into a dark purple shadow. He canceled the Life Span Barrier.
With one step, he appeared behind Impermanence Tian.
At this moment, Impermanence Tian was still discussing the recent anomalies with the other Divine Exotic Ghost Kings, when the Ghost Kings in front of him suddenly widened their eyes.
He had just noticed this, and a hand fell upon his shoulder.
Smack!
This slap sent his heart plummeting into an abyss, an unstoppable feeling of terror surging through him.
The other eight Divine Exotic Ghost Kings immediately jumped aside, keeping their distance from Gu An.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm also looked at Gu An, frowning, his divine sense unable to penetrate the Nine Extremes Yin Yang Body, increasing his wariness of Gu An to the peak.
Gu An cast a Life Span Detection at the Master of Divine Exotic Realm, only able to see his realm.
Carefree Immortal Realm Fifth Layer!
This realm was already very strong!
Before breaking through, Gu An matched against him would have only a ninety percent chance of instant kill, very dangerous.
Fortunately, he had broken through!
Gu An secretly rejoiced, his peripheral vision glancing at the nearby stele.
All Divine Soul Demons had connections of cause and effect with this stele; their power would converge within it.
"Who are you? What do you want?" A Divine Exotic Ghost King asked in a deep voice, his tone tense.
Gu An appeared too suddenly, they had no prior notice, and they could not see through Gu An's cultivation level, so how could they not be afraid?
The most important thing was that Gu An seemed to be looking at the Divine Exotic Life Tablet!
Gu An did not answer him, instead opening his mouth to ask, "Extract Impermanence Tian's power, or you will all be utterly annihilated together."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the Divine Exotic Ghost Kings changed drastically, looking at him with expressions full of shock and anger.
But no one dared to refute, much less make a move, they could only turn their gazes to the Master of Divine Exotic Realm.
Impermanence Tian trembled all over, unable to speak, only looking up at the Master of Divine Exotic Realm with pleading eyes.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm's face was grim, staring intently at Gu An.
Gu An was not in a hurry, waiting for him to make a decision, letting Impermanence Tian feel the despair.
This guy had oppressed two of Gu An's disciples so greatly before, killing him directly would be too easy on him.
After reaching the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma Realm, Gu An became more certain there was a transcendent presence behind the Master of Divine Exotic Realm, as the stele contained the aura of several Carefree Primordial Immortals, suggesting there might be a faction behind the Master of Divine Exotic Realm.
For now, he did not want to alert this presence unless the Divine Exotic Resentful Ghosts threatened the continent where the Supreme Sect resided.
Moreover, within this land, he had sensed a familiar aura, so he could not simply destroy the stele.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm took a deep breath, raised his right hand, and made a grabbing motion toward the Divine Exotic Life Tablet from afar. A soul flew out, unexpectedly, it was the soul of Impermanence Tian, but this soul was curled up, lifeless, like a soul shell.
Impermanence Tian's eyes were filled with despair and even a hint of resentment, not toward Gu An, but toward the Master of Divine Exotic Realm!
If he could speak now, he would certainly curse the Master of Divine Exotic Realm.
The other Divine Exotic Ghost Kings could understand the look in his eyes, feeling equally distressed, sharing the feeling of the death of a kindred spirit.
Gu An squeezed his right hand, and Impermanence Tian in his hand instantly turned to ash. He waved his sleeve, dispersing Impermanence Tian's true soul.
No prompt for gaining life span, but Impermanence Tian was no more.
Gu An sent a voice transmission to the Master of Divine Exotic Realm, said a sentence, and then turned to leave.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm squinted his eyes, then called out, "Wait!"
Gu An stopped, his back still facing him.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm looked down at him, saying, "In front of many Ghost Kings, I let you eliminate one of my Ghost Kings, the other Ghost Kings do not understand. Why not take my palm, and let them feel your power."
As soon as he said this, the wind between heaven and earth ceased, and the waves of the sea stood still.
The eight Divine Exotic Ghost Kings looked at Gu An, hardly daring to breathe.
They cursed inwardly, they did not want to feel anything.
They had already seen the display of power, how could they doubt it?
They understood the Master of Divine Exotic Realm was unwilling, using them as an excuse.
"Feel my power?" Gu An's voice rang out.
He slowly turned around, and in an instant, his entire being grew enormously, standing between heaven and earth.
Divine Skill, Great and Minor Ruyi!
The eight Divine Exotic Ghost Kings looked up, dumbfounded.
Gu An grew to a towering height of ten thousand zhang, his head against the blood-colored sky, his feet on the ground, with dark purple demonic qi surging around him like an ocean, magnificent and unparalleled.
In front of Gu An, the Ghost Kings could not help but feel a sense of fear.
A vast pressure enveloped them, rendering them motionless.
The face of the Master of Divine Exotic Realm also changed dramatically. As a Carefree Primordial Immortal, he could more acutely sense Gu An's terrifying power.
Gu An raised his right hand, and in the palm as large as a mountain, threads of rainbow light burst forth.
Origin Heaven-Capturing Hand!
As the Divine Skill condensed, the Master of Divine Exotic Realm and the Ghost Kings felt as if the sky were falling!
"Once my palm is raised, it must fall. Master of Divine Exotic Realm, how will you have me withdraw my palm now?"
Gu An's voice echoed throughout heaven and earth, his tone indifferent, as if imbued with celestial might.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm abruptly fell, crashing into the ground, causing countless cracks to spread across the barren land by the sea.
He trembled all over, struggling to resist Gu An's pressure.
The other Divine Exotic Ghost Kings were similarly pressed to the ground, unable to stand, looking at the Master of Divine Exotic Realm in despair.
The Master of Divine Exotic Realm gritted his teeth, his legs bending until he kneeled on the ground.
He supported himself with both hands on the ground, speaking slowly, "Please forgive me, senior!"
His voice echoed through the heavens, heard by countless Divine Exotic Resentful Ghosts.
The Ghost Kings looked at him lowering his proud head, feeling both relieved and distressed.
They were strong, capable of stirring the seas, but before the mightiest of the heavens, they were still like ants.
...
Supreme Sect, Third Medicine Valley.
Gu An stepped off the Transmission Array Platform, humming a little tune.
"Hey, why so happy?" Passing by, You Yingying couldn't help teasing.
Gu An glanced at her and said, "It's alright."
You Yingying giggled, "If you were born overseas, you wouldn't be in such a good mood now."
Gu An replied, "There are no ifs, are there? Cherish the present, enjoy life, junior."
As he finished, he walked towards the chess area in the distance, ready to defeat Nine-Finger Divine Lord in three more games.
Let Nine-Finger Divine Lord feel the terrifying deductive abilities of the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma!
You Yingying watched Gu An's back, pouting slightly, reflecting that sometimes being in the lower ranks might not be a bad thing, at least you don't have to worry about world-ending catastrophes.
