Chapter 229: 9999 Years of Maximum Lifespan
Gu An, feeling depressed, looked at the excited Ye Lan, and his mood gradually improved.
No matter what, he at least helped Ye Lan extend her life by another 470 years, and her cultivation level reached the Spiritual Transformation Realm from the Foundation Establishment Realm. Her future life will be even more exciting.
She still has nearly 500 years to live. Maybe she will have her own chance in the future?
Gu An smiled and agreed with Ye Lan from time to time.
After Ye Lan finished speaking, Gu An said, "Shall I recommend you to the inner sect?"
Ye Lan nodded, and said with a longing look on her face: "If I can't make any further progress in this life, it won't be a pity if I can appreciate the world of great monks."
From the moment Gu An stepped into the room, Ye Lan noticed that something was wrong with his expression.
Thinking back to Gu An's previous instructions, Ye Lan thought of many possibilities, but one thing was certain, that was that her senior brother was very worried about his own lifespan.
Ye Lan was not afraid nor disappointed, but rather very satisfied.
Without the help of her senior brother, she would probably have to be a menial disciple for the rest of her life, let alone reach the Foundation Establishment Stage. Everything now seemed like a dream.
"If I really can only live for a few hundred years, senior brother, there is no need to regret it. If we are destined to, we can meet in the next life, right?" Ye Lan blinked and smiled softly.
Gu An was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Yes, if there is a destiny, even reincarnation cannot hinder it.”
The two talked about the future and the past. This time, Gu An did not leave, but chose to spend the night at Ye Lan's mansion. The two talked all night and did not feel tired at all.
The next morning, Gu An left.
Ye Lan sent him to the gate. She looked at Gu An's back, and the feeling of loss she once again came to her mind.
As her realm reached a higher level, she felt more and more that her senior brother’s temperament was extraordinary.
Perhaps senior brother has already reached a certain level. After all, he is a person that Fudao Sword Master values.
Ye Lan was clear that if Gu An and Fu Dao Jian Zun had only met once, Fu Dao Jian Zun would not have used the Qing Hong Sword at that time.
Gu An concealed his relationship with Fudao Jianzun only because he was afraid of getting into trouble. Ye Lan could understand this.
"Brother, I will stay with you for the rest of my life."
A smile appeared on Ye Lan's face, and her eyes were full of anticipation.
The future is far away, she doesn't want to think too much about it, she just wants to cherish the present.
…
Let's put Ye Lan's matter aside for the time being. Unlike the Daoyan Gong, which can only lift the cultivation limit once in a lifetime, the Xiantian Samsara Gong can be practiced repeatedly. Ye Lan will continue to suppress her cultivation and release it hundreds of years later. By then, her maximum lifespan should be able to increase further. However, Gu An is not sure whether the effect will be the same as the first time the cultivation limit was lifted.
At least it's a hope, anyway.
Hundreds of years later, Gu An's cultivation will also change, and perhaps he will find an opportunity to change Ye Lan's fate.
Compared to Ye Lan, Gu An is more worried about Xiaochuan.
Xiaochuan doesn't usually work hard at cultivation. Even if the restrictions on his cultivation are lifted, his cultivation level will be limited, at least not as good as Ye Lan's.
However, Xiaochuan has already seen through life and is not afraid of life and death, so Gu An does not have so many regrets.
Everyone has his or her own choices, and everyone will experience separation. Gu An is not a stubborn person. If there is nothing he can do, then he can only practice hard on his own and go to see the scene at the end of the immortal path for his old friends.
This summer was not as hot as in previous years.
Inside the third medicine valley.
Gu An went downstairs and looked at the various creatures in the valley. A smile spread across his face and he was in a good mood.
In the distance, You Yingying was instructing An Xin and several female disciples to practice magic. Although her cultivation level was very low, she knew quite a few magic spells.
The Blood Hell Great Sage was chasing the White Spirit Rat again. The gap between the two was very small. Whenever he was about to catch up with the White Spirit Rat, the White Spirit Rat would always dodge him nimbly. This made him extremely furious. He was unwilling to stop and had to keep chasing.
Ten years have passed, and Lu Lingjun has not returned yet.
Gu An discovered through her spiritual sense that her Ascension Sect had been initially established, but one of the Ascendants had offended an overseas noble family, and the two sides had been engaged in a feud that had lasted for several years.
In this regard, Gu An just watched the show and didn't want to intervene.
Although Lu Lingjun was injured many times, he was not in danger of death.
It has to be said that the ascenders are indeed very tenacious. Even though the enemy is powerful, they have no intention of giving up. They are ready to fight to the death and will not stop until they get justice.
Xiao Chuan came to Gu An and said, "Brother, I just recruited a hundred menial disciples. Do you want to take a look?"
In the past ten years, disciples have continued to build their foundation and leave, and new disciples have joined. The total number of disciples has exceeded nine hundred.
Gu An had nothing to do, so he nodded in agreement.
He followed Xiaochuan to the grass at the edge of the attic area, where a hundred menial disciples were waiting. They were very nervous and were whispering to each other.
"Will the Valley Master accept us?"
"It should be possible. The senior disciple has brought us here."
"This Third Medicine Valley is not simple. Every year, it can send out several Foundation Establishment disciples to help them be promoted to outer disciples."
"I've heard that too. It is said that the Valley Master is the Sect Master's disciple."
"The most important thing is that this valley master is very generous."
Some were excited, some were nervous, and some were shaking with nervousness.
When they saw Ogawa and the other man coming, they all shut up.
Their eyes fell on Gu An, and they were all amazed by his appearance and temperament.
So young! So handsome!
Gu An glanced at these menial disciples, continuously probing their lifespans.
In the past few decades, there were many hidden geniuses among the menial disciples recruited by Xiaochuan, but none of them had a maximum lifespan of more than a thousand years. Gu An also did not focus on cultivating menial disciples, and the relationship between master and disciple was not close.
At a glance, all of them have a maximum lifespan of one to two hundred years, with an occasional person with a maximum lifespan of more than three hundred years appearing.
[Yang Jian (Qi Training Level 3): 15/97/9999]
Hmm? Yang Jian?
Erlang Shen has appeared?
And this life span is the same as An Hao's...
Gu An's eyes were fixed on Yang Jian. He pointed at Yang Jian and sent a message to Xiaochuan, asking him to call the boy out.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Yang Jian was wearing plain grey clothes and had a slightly dark face. It looked like he had been doing farm work since he was a child, but his facial features were well-defined, and if he took good care of himself, he would look handsome.
He stood in the crowd, quite inconspicuous.
Watching Xiaochuan coming, everyone held their breath, feeling both nervous and expectant.
Xiaochuan squeezed into the crowd, patted Yang Jian on the shoulder and asked him to come out.
Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed, feeling very nervous, fearing that Gu An would dislike him.
When he came in front of Gu An, he heard Gu An ask: "Introduce yourself."
Yang Jian came back to his senses and said quickly: "My name is Yang Jian, I'm from Longhu Town, Xuzhou, I'm fifteen years old, and there are nine people in my family..."
Before Gu An could speak, Xiao Chuan couldn't help but ask, "Yang Jian? Which Yang, which Jian?"
Yang Jian scratched his head and said with embarrassment: "It's Yang Jian in Investiture of the Gods and Erlang Shen in Journey to the West. I like these two books very much, so after entering Taixuan Sect, I changed my name to Yang Jian. My previous name was Yang Xiaohu, which really didn't sound good..."
As soon as these words came out, the errand disciples behind him burst into laughter.
After hearing this, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
I was so scared! He really thought this guy was Yang Jian in the Investiture of the Gods. After all, his lifespan of nearly 10,000 years was too impressive.
So far, Gu An has met three people with a maximum lifespan of 9,999 years, namely An Hao, Blood Hell Great Sage, and Yang Jian.
He looked at Yang Jian carefully and found that Yang Jian had a peculiar bone structure. His spiritual roots were mixed roots of the five elements, but his muscles and bones were different from those of ordinary people. This was difficult to detect unless one reached the immortal realm. His muscles and bones needed huge spiritual energy to nourish them before they could revive.
In other words, if Yang Jian cannot truly awaken his physical body, he will be no different from an ordinary chores disciple.
If there were no life span detection, it would be difficult for Gu An to detect this.
If Yang Jian had not met Gu An, he would probably never have been noticed as extraordinary by others in his entire life, because there were very few immortals in the Taicang Dynasty and it was difficult for Yang Jian to come into contact with them.
Xiao Chuan's face darkened as he said, "You really know how to name things. Erlang Shen is so handsome, and you dare to touch him?"
He also likes Romance of the Gods and Journey to the West, and has a very good impression of Yang Jian.
Gu An added the story of Yang Jian saving his mother in Taoshan to Investiture of the Gods, which made Yang Jian's image more full and made his popularity jump to the most popular level in Investiture of the Gods, overshadowing Nezha.
The other errand disciples followed suit and made Yang Jian's face turn red. He wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"You've embarked on the path of cultivating immortals and renamed yourself. This is also a way to show your aspirations. From now on, you will be called Yang Jian."
Gu An spoke, and as soon as he spoke, the other disciples dared not laugh anymore.
Afterwards, Gu An gave some polite encouragement and reminded them of some rules of Medicine Valley. He then said that as long as the disciples were diligent, he would be willing to help them build a foundation and pursue the path to immortality.
After saying that, Gu An turned and left.
He would not accept a person as a disciple just based on his maximum lifespan. He would wait and see how Yang Jian performed in the future. If he had good character, he would be willing to help him and establish a good relationship with him. If he had a bad character, he would die in depression with his extraordinary maximum lifespan.
Because he was called out alone by Gu An, Yang Jian was sought after by other disciples. Everyone came forward to make friends with him, which made him flattered.
He looked at Gu An's departing back, his eyes full of gratitude.
Without Gu An's affirmation, his name would have been ridiculed forever.
He secretly decided that he must perform well and strive to get a Foundation Establishment Pill in the future!
After returning to the house, Gu An couldn't help but look at An Hao.
Compared with Ye Yan, Su Han, Zhen Qin and others, An Hao is his real disciple, who has inherited his skills and unique knowledge. He has always had great expectations for An Hao.
An Hao’s cultivation has reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, but the scary thing is that he is not even a hundred years old.
At this moment, An Hao was practicing on a small island in the ocean. Chi Jiuxiao and Chi Bei were also on that island, guiding him in his practice.
Both of them were amazed by An Hao's talent. If they hadn't known that An Hao had a master who was at the level of a fairyland, they would have rushed to take An Hao as their apprentice.
Gu An noticed that Chi Bei's cultivation was constantly declining, and it seemed that the poison of the Immortal Scorpion could not be completely eliminated.
I have to find an opportunity to pass on the advanced skills of Yangmu Hunyuan Gong to An Hao, so that An Hao will not be caught up by Li Ya and Zhang Buku.
