Chapter 322 Evil Tree
What happened inside the Broken Sea Rift was not spread, and a magical immortal disappeared silently.
Since then, Gu An clearly felt that the number of people in the mainland who were inquiring about Fu Dao Jian Zun was sharply decreasing. It seemed that the main city of Duanhai Area had made its choice.
If the Holy Court really no longer plotted against Gu An, Gu An would naturally not bother to care.
Living in peace is what he hopes for! The Broken Sea Region ushered in a peaceful period, and the world continued to emerge with geniuses and great powers, while Gu An hid in Taixuan Gate and watched the world's ups and downs with a smile.
In a blink of an eye.
Fifty years passed quickly.
Gu An returned to the Third Medicine Valley. He looked at his attribute panel with a smile on his face.
[Name: Gu An]
[Lifespan: 293/470,569,402]
…
Today's harvest from the secluded cave allowed him to increase his lifespan by nearly 40 million years!
It’s so cool! This is the first time that Shiwai Dongtian has harvested herbs on a large scale. Every year, he will plant high-level herbs in Shiwai Dongtian, and his income from life will only increase in the future!
Fifty years have passed, and the Taixuan Sect has been thriving. Today, in terms of paper strength, it has become one of the largest sects in the continent, and only the Seven Star Spirit Realm can compare to it.
Most of the menial disciples in the Third Medicine Valley have been replaced. Some have left and some have come. The scene in the Medicine Valley is the same as it was fifty years ago.
Along the way, Gu An kept greeting his disciples.
This scene made Ji Xiaoyu, who was standing in front of the attic, a little dazed.
She had been away for decades, but this medicine valley was still the same as before. How could she not be moved? Gu An came all the way to the attic. He looked at Ji Xiaoyu and smiled, "I haven't seen you for many years, and you are even more powerful."
Ji Xiaoyu was wearing a green dress, and she was still as graceful as ever. The green dress on her body was like a skirt, fluttering in the wind, giving the illusion of flowing clouds.
She stared at Gu An and said, "After so many years, you are still at the Jindan realm, while I am already at the Huashen realm. Do you regret it?"
regret?
How is that possible!
Do I always get into danger when I go out with you? Gu An complained in his heart. Over the years, he often used his divine sense to visit Ji Xiaoyu, and even helped her a few times, so that she always escaped danger. He knew too well what she had been through.
"I don't regret it. I've lived a good life these years. As for my cultivation, I'll take it slow. Sooner or later, I will condense my Nascent Soul." Gu An replied nonchalantly.
Ji Xiaoyu stared at him carefully, and after making sure that he was not lying, a smile appeared on his face.
What she admired most was Gu An's character. She had never seen him angry or jealous. He seemed to always be smiling.
"Let's go upstairs and talk?" Gu An asked with a smile. He knew that Ji Xiaoyu had a lot to say.
For Gu An, the journey that Ji Xiaoyu had taken over the years was far less than one step for him, but for her, these decades were very long, and occasionally Gu An could still hear her mumbling alone in front of the fire.
The Thief Wuxing who had followed Ji Xiaoyu at the beginning never showed up, but just escorted her for a while in secret.
After going upstairs and entering the house, Ji Xiaoyu began to tell about his experiences over the years. The story was very rich, with slaying demons, ups and downs of adventure, and even grudges.
Gu An listened carefully and responded from time to time, which made Ji Xiaoyu's desire to talk even stronger.
More than an hour later, Ji Xiaoyu finally finished speaking.
Gu An said with emotion: "It's so exciting, just like the stories in the storytelling book."
Ji Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I have obtained a legacy from my previous life. This journey is not in vain. I just don't know how far I can go in the end."
It should be the second level of the immortal path.
Gu An saw that the secret realm was created by a wandering immortal, which means that Ji Xiaoyu’s highest level of cultivation in his previous life had reached the wandering immortal realm.
For Ji Xiaoyu at the moment, the immortals are so powerful that it is difficult to approach them.
Gu An asked with a smile: "What are your plans next?"
Ji Xiaoyu replied: "Let it settle for a few decades before considering leaving."
"The Heavenly Ranking Conference is about to begin, so it's a good time to come and see the excitement. The Taixuan Sect is no longer what it used to be, so this Heavenly Ranking Conference will definitely be very lively. It is said that two years ago, some immortals joined the Taixuan Sect. Have you heard of them?" Gu An became more talkative when he talked about the Heavenly Ranking Conference.
Ji Xiaoyu looked at him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
This guy still loves to watch the fun.
Listening to Gu An talking about the highlights of the Heavenly Ranking Conference, and then listening to the chirping of insects and voices outside the window, Ji Xiaoyu's heart fell into peace.
Having seen many ups and downs outside, she felt peaceful at this moment, without any pressure or worries in her heart.
After spending an afternoon with Ji Xiaoyu, Gu An left the Third Medicine Valley and came to the Bajing Cave Heaven under the Xuan Valley.
He walked all the way to the vine tree, where a large tripod was located, and there were many instruments around it.
In the past thirty years, he has been studying the art of refining weapons. He does not seek to forge any amazing magic weapon, but only hopes to gain some insights in the process of forging.
The magic weapons he had forged were enough to make the Taixuan Sect fight for them, but he did not hand them over to the Taixuan Sect. Instead, he threw them to Xunxian Island to be sold, and used the spiritual stones in exchange to buy seeds and refining materials.
It is not difficult for Gu An, who possesses the cultivation level of a true immortal with divine thoughts, to forge immortal treasures, but it is not possible for him to create the ultimate treasure of immortality.
The most precious treasure of the immortal path can only be created by a powerful being standing at the ninth level of the immortal path. It is the crystallization of the life-long efforts of the immortal being.
Looking at the vast world of Tianling, any force that possesses the immortal treasure is a local overlord, but there are very few who can truly unleash the full power of the immortal treasure, at least Gu An has not seen any yet.
Long Zhan has a supreme treasure of the immortal way. When he reaches the ninth level of the immortal way, this treasure can suppress the entire universe. It is extremely powerful.
As soon as Gu An arrived in front of the cauldron, fire started to burn at the bottom of the cauldron and all the equipment around it.
Two vines stretched out from behind and began to massage Gu An's shoulders.
"Master, are you really not going to care about that guy?" Cang Tengshu's voice sounded, still like Jiang Qiong's, but softer.
Gu An replied: "It's okay, the other party will never set foot here."
Because of the existence of Fudao Sword Master, Taixuan Sect's fame far exceeds its strength. This time's Tianbang Conference also attracted a large number of overseas cultivators and monsters.
There is a breath among them that scares Cang Tengshu, and Gu An has already found that breath.
It was a transformed tree demon, whose cultivation had reached the level of Wandering Immortals. He was currently hiding his cultivation and joining the Heavenly Ranking Conference as a Mahayana cultivator.
A wandering immortal could not threaten Gu An, so he didn't care at all.
The person he cared about was another person. There was a person from the Xianling Dynasty who came to Taixuan Gate. This person's cultivation had reached the level of Xiaoyao Yuanxian, and he also hid his cultivation. On the surface, he was just an ordinary immortal.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Of course, even if he only has the cultivation level of a scattered immortal, it is enough for the Taixuan Sect to treat him as a guest of honor.
Gu An was very curious about the purpose of the Xianling Dynasty.
There will be some exciting things to watch at this year’s Tianbang Conference.
"Master, can you subdue him?" Cang Tengshu asked cautiously.
Gu An thought it was worried, so he nodded.
He clearly felt the vine on his shoulder tremble, and then he heard the voice of the vine tree: "Then can you catch him and let me eat him?"
Gu An was stunned and turned around to look at the Cang Tengshu in surprise. He was scared to death just now, but now he wants to eat me?
He almost forgot that the Cang Teng Tree came from Qianqiu Pavilion, which is a demonic sect, so it could naturally be an evil tree.
"Don't have any bad ideas, or I'll eat you up!" Gu An said unhappily.
Cang Tengshu used to love eating mutton. If his murderous nature was not curbed, Gu An was afraid that his disciples would suffer.
He kept the vine tree mainly for its vine fruit. For him now, the vine tree is not indispensable.
As if sensing Gu An's displeasure, Cang Tengshu stopped talking and became more cautious with the two vines pressing on his shoulders.
At noon the next day, Gu An rode the Blood Hell Great Sage to the outer gate city.
The city was overcrowded with people, and even in the sky there were a large number of monks and monsters flying around.
Fifty years have passed, and Gu An has more acquaintances in the city, and people greet him wherever he goes.
He also met Zuo Yijian's son Zuo Lin, who was also Li Ya's childhood friend. Even without practicing swordsmanship, he was a genuine genius.
Today, Zuo Lin has completely given up kendo and has become a well-known genius.
The two met every year and had always had a good relationship. Zuo Lin directly started to complain about his father.
It was nothing more than offending the great monk in order to support Dao Jian Zun.
Although Zuo Yijian guarded the Broken Sky Axe day and night, he still offended many people. This also led to the Zuo family being frequently infiltrated and investigated. Fortunately, with the presence of Fudao Sword Master, no one dared to mess around, but the Zuo family members were also terrified, fearing that a catastrophe would suddenly befall them.
Gu An suddenly wondered whether he should give Zuo Yijian some advice. To be honest, he saw Zuo Yijian's attitude and he was definitely a believer.
Well, find an opportunity to guide him. Don’t let Zuo Yijian’s efforts be in vain.
After chatting for a while, the two separated. Gu An used his mind to communicate with the Blood Hell Great Sage, and the Blood Hell Great Sage changed direction.
The crowd was surging, and vendors on both sides were shouting constantly. Gu An rode on the back of the Blood Hell Sage, looking back and forth to both sides, curious about everything along the way.
It feels like going to the market.
Unlike other conferences, the Heavenly Ranking Conference is held once every century. It is the most important event for Taixuan Sect and even Taicang Continent. Its liveliness is far beyond that of other times. The arrival of many sects also brings many new things.
After an incense stick of time, the Blood Hell Great Sage stopped in front of an attic. Gu An flipped over and walked into the building called Qibao Pavilion.
Entering the lobby, a dazzling array of treasure shelves appeared before him, and his eyes turned to one person.
[Zhang Xianwang (Seventh level of Xiaoyao Yuanxian Realm): 359098/700000/2500000]
The maximum lifespan is 2.5 million years! Gu An predicted that he has the qualifications to reach Daoxu Xuanxian.
This person was Xiaoyao Yuanxian from the Xianling Dynasty. He was standing in front of a treasure shelf, playing with a broken flute in his hand.
Gu An took a step forward and passed behind him.
Zhang Xianwang ignored him. The two of them stood in front of the same row of treasure racks admiring the treasures.
After a while, Zhang Xianwang glanced at Gu An, and just this one glance made his eyebrows raise.
"Little brother, where does the golden pattern on your forehead come from?" Zhang Xianwang asked in a gentle tone, without any of the aggressiveness of a great monk.
Gu An touched his forehead and said with a smile: "One night, when I woke up, there was an extra golden pattern like this. Could it be that you know its origin?"
