Chapter 149 Rapidly Increasing Lifespan

In the past month, Gu An harvested 1.07 million years of life by relying on the Epiphyllum, almost all of which were harvested in the first half of the month. The later it was, the harder it was to seize life. More Epiphyllums withered directly after being picked by him, which surprised him.

It seems that there is some force in the dark that is taking away the vitality of these ephemeral flowers prematurely.

Although he didn't know the reason, Gu An was satisfied.

Thanks to the Epiphyllum Sect, he saved twenty years of hard work and his lifespan reached 4.39 million years.

After the fall of the Epiphyllum Cult, the Nine Dynasties were all in jubilation, and various versions of the story spread among the people. The Epiphyllum Cult became the most terrifying sect in the world, and the mountain god became a belief among the people.

This day.

In the mountains of Beihai, in a forest.

Master Xuanmiao knelt on the ground with a pious expression.

He suddenly heard a voice, his face lit up with joy, and then he walked in another direction.

Two hours later, Xuanmiao Zhenren stopped. He stood on a hillside and looked up. He could see the sparkling North Sea.

"Please build a Taoist temple for me here, and open up a medicinal field to grow medicinal herbs for me." Gu An's voice sounded in the ears of Xuanmiao Zhenren.

Master Xuanmiao agreed immediately and was looking forward to his future life of service.

Just like that, a day and a night passed.

Early morning.

Gu An turned into a little man in white and appeared on the shoulder of Master Xuanmiao.

Taoist Xuanmiao was meditating on the steps in front of the Taoist temple, practicing with his eyes closed.

Gu An looked at the Taoist temple he built. It was pretty good. It wasn’t grand, but it wasn’t stingy either.

The courtyard wall is made of rocks, as is the Taoist temple. The beams and pillars are made of mahogany, and the eaves are paved with red bricks. It is looming in the woods halfway up the mountain. The large cauldron in the courtyard is burning incense and candles, with green smoke curling up, creating an atmosphere of a fairyland.

Overall, Master Xuanmiao put in a lot of effort and succeeded in pleasing him.

Gu An said, "The words on this plaque are not good. The Mountain God Temple is too general. There may be more than one mountain god in this world."

Master Xuanmiao suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously turned his head to look. He saw the mountain god standing on his shoulder. His body suddenly stiffened and he dared not move.

He asked cautiously: "May I ask what is the name of your immortal god..."

“I haven’t decided yet.”

Gu An jumped off Master Xuanmiao’s shoulder and walked into the courtyard.

Xuanmiao Zhenren quickly stood up and followed, asking curiously, "What do you mean by 'haven't thought it through'? Don't you have a group of immortals and gods behind you, like the heaven in the Investiture of the Gods?"

"Investiture of the Gods, what is that?"

Taoist Xuanmiao gave a brief account of the Investiture of the Gods, and his tone was full of respect when he mentioned the book.

After listening to this, Gu An sneered and said, "How dare a mortal speculate about immortals and gods? I don't know if there is a heaven in the world, but I have never seen other immortals and gods in my life."

"Then how are you..."

"You want to ask, why do I dare to call myself a mountain god?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant..."

"Being an immortal is not just a status, it is also a certain realm. If you practice hard, maybe one day you can reach that state."

Gu An's words made Master Xuanmiao's heart suddenly burn with joy.

He also wanted to be as powerful as the mountain god! Seeing that the mountain god was in a good mood, he began to ask about the medicine field.

"No matter what you plant, I will pick them when the time comes and send these flowers and plants to the afterlife." Gu An answered casually, which made Master Xuanmiao stand in awe.

He had never heard that flowers and plants also need to be reborn.

The mountain god's mind was indeed beyond his imagination.

After Gu An explained some things to Master Xuanmiao, he disappeared out of thin air. He said that he was going to sleep in the fields and asked not to disturb him.

Sleeping in the ground?

Master Xuanmiao has gained a new understanding.

…

Two months have passed since the fall of the Epiphyllum Sect. The great monks of the Taixuan Sect and their disciples have returned one after another. Their return also brought back many inside stories, causing the legend of the mountain god to spread again in the Taixuan Sect.

Lu Lingjun is back too.

She was included in the Elders' Hall by Lu Baitian, and her status soared. Lu Baitian originally wanted to transfer her out of the Third Medicine Valley, but this time she refused.

"I will practice in the Third Medicine Valley and continue to protect you, but don't think of sending me around. If you can pay tribute to me with some herbs on weekdays, I can do something for you."

In the attic, Lu Lingjun sat opposite Gu An and spoke slowly.

This posture...

What a pretense! Gu An said with a smile: "It's not impossible to give you the herbs. In fact, you can go buy the seeds and I will help you plant them. When the time comes, all the yields will belong to you. It's a matter of convenience for me. I can rest assured that you will be in charge of the Third Medicine Valley."

When Lu Lingjun heard this, he thought it made sense and said, "That's right. I will go to the sect's main city in two days. The seeds there are of higher quality."

She then began to talk about the previous battle of Wanjilin, which she described based on her own experience and was even more brutal.

She has great respect for the mountain god. As an ascended being, the immortal gods mean even more to her.

Gu An felt secretly happy listening to her expressing her awe for the mountain god.

Gu An did not reveal the truth and kept exclaiming from time to time.

After she finished speaking, Gu An said with emotion: "The realm of the mountain god is really hard to imagine. I wonder if a mortal can reach that realm in his entire life."

Lu Lingjun said seriously: "It may be difficult, but since you have embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, you must work hard towards this goal, even if you die, you will have no regrets."

Gu An saw that her lifespan had reached its maximum, which was three thousand seven hundred years. She still had nearly one thousand seven hundred years left, and he didn't know whether she could change her fate and reach the state of nirvana in the remaining years.

He had no intention of imparting the Innate Reincarnation Technique for the time being, as his relationship with Lu Lingjun was not yet good enough to that extent.

Let's see how she performs next.

If it would make him happy, he would help out.

If this guy treats him badly, then forget it.

Half an hour later, Lu Lingjun stood up and left. Before leaving, she reminded him, "Don't read those crappy books. When you have time, write another Investiture of the Gods. I want to see what kind of stories happened to those people after they were deified."

Broken book?

You don't understand at all! Gu An glared at Lu Lingjun's back, and only after she closed the door did he take out the Taixuan Secret.

This was the last volume of Taixuan Secret Transmission. After reading it, he prepared to burn it.

He opened the first page and began to taste it.

Huh? Shen Zhen's writing style has changed. This last volume is actually melancholic and not as bold as before.

Okay, I like it.

As a melancholy person, Gu An decided not to burn the Taixuan secret.

Watching the hero and his confidante explode with emotion as they say goodbye to each other and tell each other their pains, the emotional conflicts that have been building up for so many years are finally released.

Next is the illustration that Gu An usually despises the most.

He had to take a careful look to see if there were any flaws in Shen Zhen's painting skills.

…

With the arrival of the new year, Gu An participated in the Spring Festival in the Third Medicine Valley and Xuan Valley respectively. In the second half of the night, he came to the Nianchu Cave in Tianhuang Mountain.

He brought Tian Yaoer fine wine and delicious food, intending to celebrate the festival with her.

Apart from taking care of the herbs, Tian Yaoer spends the rest of her time practicing. Her life is quite boring, so Gu An would give her all kinds of delicious food every time he came.

This is Tian Yaoer's first time drinking.

She held the jar and choked on the first sip.

This is spiritual wine. Even a Jindan-level cultivator will get drunk if he drinks too much.

Even if you are drunk, this wine can improve your cultivation and can be considered a good medicine for cultivation.

Tian Yaoer's pretty face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Gu An reminded her, "Don't worry if you can't drink it. Save it for later and drink it slowly. You will get used to it after drinking a lot."

The monster blushed after drinking? This was beyond Gu An's expectation.

Tian Yaoer shook her head and said, "I can drink, why can't I drink?"

When she saw Gu An finish the bowl of spirit wine, she naturally refused to admit defeat.

Moreover, although she felt hot all over after drinking this wine, she still felt quite comfortable and wanted to drink more.

Gu An was about to speak when he suddenly realized something. He stood up and said, "Eat some meat first. I'll go out for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared into thin air.

Tian Yaoer picked up the wine jar again, licked her lips, and took another sip. This time, she forced herself to suppress the choking feeling and continued drinking.

…

In the dark night, there are continuous mountains and a ridge that rises and falls. Looking closely, it turns out to be a giant snake with two feet and a human face.

It was Chen She who had appeared in Wanjilin before.

Chen She was covered in blood, his breath was weak, and his wheezing was like thunder. The evil fog was swirling around him, and there were vaguely many ghost shadows approaching.

Chen She's lively eyes were very tired and could close at any time.

"Such a powerful blood and energy, a relic of ancient times."

A sneer was heard, startling Chen She so much that he opened his eyes and looked. He saw a figure appearing above the evil fog in the distance. It was an old woman in a black robe with two horns on her head and a pair of wings behind her. There was also fine black hair on her cheeks, which made her look even more terrifying.

The Sky Phoenix Demon Mother looked down at Chen She, her eyes full of greed.

Chen She moved slightly, but was too weak to get up.

The Sky Phoenix Demon Mother began to approach Chen She, and demonic energy emanated from her body, as if two black dragons were encircling Chen She's huge body.

"If you don't want to die, just turn around and leave."

A voice came from the direction of Chen She. The Phoenix Demon Mother stopped, squinted, and saw a little man in white wearing a mask standing on Chen She's forehead.

The Phoenix Demon Mother sneered and said, "Why? Who are you? Don't you know who I am?"

When Gu An heard this, he was about to answer, but then felt it was troublesome.

He immediately waved his sleeves, and his terrifying magic power rushed towards the Sky Phoenix Demon Mother like the wind, instantly reducing her to ashes.

[You successfully seized the 203-year lifespan of the Phoenix Demon Mother (ninth level of the Fusion Realm)]

The demon king that Tian Yaoer feared the most died at the hands of Gu An without any power to resist.

Chen Snake opened his eyes with difficulty and spoke in human language: "You... are you the mountain god..."

Its voice is indistinguishable between male and female, and is weak.

That day, during the battle with the Epiphyllum Sect, it was injured and fell to the ground, and saw the wooden man.

The image of the wooden man is very similar to the current Gu An.

Gu An said: "Since you are saving lives, I will save your life."

He took out bottles of pills that had been refined long ago and poured them into Chen She's mouth.

After Chen She was seriously injured, he was poisoned by the Epiphyllum cereus from the mother tree of the Epiphyllum cereus. The Epiphyllum cereus poison can only be cured by the Epiphyllum cereus pill made from the Epiphyllum cereus.

"Mountain God...someone...inherited the power of the Epiphyllum Religion..." Chen Snake said with difficulty. Its snake eyes burst into a strange light and revealed a human figure.

Gu An looked carefully and the look under the mask became strange.

Why is it him?

This book does not involve ascending to a certain realm. The world where the protagonist lives is very big, and the ascension is also from the lower world to this world~~ (End of this chapter)
