Chapter 155 Gathering the Ascendants
On the hillside, a breeze blew past, ruffling Gu An's robe. He was staring at the stone statue in front of him. His spiritual sense had penetrated the statue and captured the remnant soul.
The image of this residual soul is exactly the same as the stone statue, that is, an old man with his soul curled up, seemingly in a deep sleep.
The previous sound was triggered by some kind of restriction. Whenever a living creature entered this cave, the restriction would be triggered.
Not only that, when Gu An explored it previously, he also discovered that there were other teleportation formations in this small cave world. Together with where they came from, there were a total of eight teleportation formations, corresponding to different directions. This made him have more speculations about this cave.
The cave of a Mahayana monk! Gu An raised his hand and moved the residual soul out of the stone statue. A ball of light appeared in his hand.
[Su Xing Taoist (Mahayana Realm Level 3): 0/0/0]
All 0s?
Does this mean that Taoist Suxing is completely dead?
He immediately probed his spiritual consciousness into the remaining soul of Taoist Su Xing and used soul-stealing techniques to search for his memory.
Boom boom
There was a shocking sound coming from afar. It was the sound of An Hao and Si Yan'er fighting. They were being entangled by a group of wooden puppets.
Gu An didn't turn around and searched his soul seriously.
An hour later.
The remaining soul in Gu An's hand vanished into thin air.
Taoist Su Xing had indeed fallen a long time ago. He left behind his remnant soul in the hope of waiting for an opportunity to be resurrected or to possess another body. However, his secret technique to preserve the remnant soul could not withstand the erosion of time.
After a long time, his soul power was completely exhausted, and the remaining soul was just a soul shell that retained some memories.
Taoist Suxing comes from the Seven Stars Spirit Realm, which is the holy land of this continent.
In the memory of Taoist Su Xing, Gu An learned a terrible truth.
The demon ancestor actually came from the Seven Star Spirit Realm!
Taoist Su Xing and a group of his fellow disciples were ordered to bring out the Demon Ancestor, release him, and let him create the demon race. Later, for unknown reasons, Taoist Su Xing left the Seven Star Spirit Realm, went south to the sea, and attempted to escape the continent. As a result, he was attacked by other cultivators from the Seven Star Spirit Realm and was seriously injured. Finally, he hid in the land of Tian Wei to open up a cave, and never went out again until his deadline came.
Gu An did not see the true body of the Demon Ancestor from his memory. The Demon Ancestor was sealed in a wooden box. Taoist Su Xing and his fellow monks were very afraid of the Demon Ancestor. They put down the wooden box and left, unsealed it remotely, and then quickly escaped.
However, when the wooden box was unsealed, the demonic aura that surged into the sky left a deep impression on Taoist Su Xing.
Apart from this memory, all other memories are scenes of Taoist Su Xing raising spiritual beasts in the cave.
The Demon Ancestor is actually related to the Seven Star Spirit Realm, which is very different from the legend Tian Yaoer has heard.
Gu An thought of many possibilities, but he had no urge to investigate the matter.
Taoist Su Xing is a cultivator in the Mahayana realm, which means that there may be immortals in the Seven Star Spirit Realm.
He must not appear in the sight of the Seven Star Spirit Realm now.
His greatest advantage is that he has no hatred or enemies, so he can become stronger in peace and stability.
After thinking about it, Gu An turned around and prepared to pick the herbs here, and also carry away a batch of rare treasures.
…
In the evening, Gu An returned to the Third Medicine Valley.
The picking this afternoon allowed him to gain more than 300,000 years of life in one go, and he could continue picking in the future, because the cave was so large and had formed its own ecosystem, so he did not wipe out the roots.
How could he be so short-sighted as to cut off this path because of momentary greed when he was in a place that could provide him with longevity for a long time?
The plants whose lives he can take away must contain spiritual power or spiritual energy. Such plants are already considered natural treasures. Although the cave is very large and most of them are ordinary plants, the reason why the spiritual energy in the cave is so rich is because the cave has restrictions that prevent the spiritual energy from leaking out.
An Hao and Si Yan'er are still in the cave, making friends with the spirit beasts inside, so they are not in danger for the time being.
Taoist Su Xing left behind a legacy of skills and magical powers in the cave, which was enough for An Hao and the others to explore for many years.
As soon as he returned to the attic, Lu Lingjun came to find him.
After closing the door, Lu Lingjun came to the table and sat down. She said, "Don't run around all day. Today I felt a strong spiritual consciousness coming from the outer city. As soon as the other party sensed my spiritual consciousness, it withdrew it, and I couldn't track its whereabouts."
"Do you mean there might be danger inside Taixuan Gate?" Gu An asked with a frown.
Lu Lingjun nodded and said, "The other party should be a demon. The consciousness of a demon is different from that of a cultivator. I have often dealt with demons in the past, so I can see through this."
Being able to escape Lu Lingjun's pursuit means that the other party is also in the Xuanxin realm! A monster in the Xuanxin realm? Gu An plans to explore Taixuanmen at night to at least make sure that the other party cannot threaten his Medicine Valley.
"With you here, no matter whether the opponent is a monster or a human, they will definitely not dare to attack my medicine valley. The Third Medicine Valley will have to rely on your protection in the future. Don't worry, I will definitely cultivate those medicinal herbs of yours myself!" Gu An said with a smile, and his words revealed admiration, which made Lu Lingjun very happy.
Lu Lingjun snorted, "Don't worry, unless the mountain god descends, no one can destroy the Third Medicine Valley."
After reaching the Xuanxin realm, she regained the arrogance she had when she looked down upon the world in the lower realm. She felt that her road to becoming an immortal had just begun! The two chatted for a while before Lu Lingjun explained his purpose.
Reminding Gu An that there was a big monster in the sect was just a cover. Her real intention was to hope that Gu An would write a book with her as the protagonist, a book like the one about Taixuan Immortal.
"You are a cultivator in the Xuanxin realm. If you want, you can easily become famous throughout the world. Why do you need me to write for you?" Gu An hesitated.
He didn't expect that Lu Lingjun had this habit.
Lu Lingjun raised his eyebrows and said, "Just tell me what you want."
"You're doing it again! What are you talking about!"
"When I came back from the Taichen Dynasty, I sensed the aura of an eighth-level spiritual tree hidden in a certain sect. If you help me write a book, I will steal that tree after the task is completed."
"If you dare to steal, I dare not take it."
"I can use a secret method to seal the tree. When the storm dies down, you can find a place to plant it."
“Where can I plant…”
"Don't pretend, you must have a secret, otherwise why do you go out so often?"
"Ahem, stop talking nonsense. We can discuss writing a book, but you can't slander me. Do you understand?"
Hearing Gu An's words, Lu Lingjun was also amused and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I am not slandering you. You don't have any secrets. You are dedicated to Taixuan Sect and are selfless."
"Well, that's pretty good. Then tell me your story and I'll find inspiration from it." Gu An nodded with satisfaction and said.
I just happened to have some time recently, so I might as well write a book to show off my calligraphy skills and let the world see Pan An's calligraphy skills! Lu Lingjun's thoughts fell into memories and he began to tell his own story.
This lecture lasted the whole night.
It was almost dawn when Lu Lingjun walked out of Gu An's attic.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Tang Yu, who had gotten up early to practice martial arts, saw this scene and his eyes widened. He quickly retracted his gaze and pretended not to see it.
The news that Lu Lingjun was the elder of the sect had already spread in the valley, and the disciples all kept their distance from her.
"Master is so powerful that he can even defeat the elders of the sect. It turns out that a good appearance can overcome the gap in cultivation." Tang Yu thought to himself.
After Lu Lingjun returned to her attic, Gu An heard her talking to the Demon Emperor Bai Ling.
There was a profound restriction in Lu Lingjun's attic, but unfortunately it had no effect on Gu An. Moreover, their attics were adjacent to each other, so Gu An could easily hear her movements.
"Can he really connect with other Ascendants through his book?"
"It's hard to say. What if Pan An's fame has spread throughout the Nine Dynasties? I can give it a try. I can't just tell everyone that I'm an ascender, right?"
"That's true, but your idea is very good. If you can unite other ascenders and form your strength, it will be very helpful for you to seize the position of sect leader in the future."
Hearing this, Gu An put down the pen in his hand and fell into thought.
…
At noon, inside the outer gate of the city.
On the Bu Tian Terrace.
A man in white came to the bottom of the word "正" and looked at the sword intent contained in it, his eyes full of surprise.
"Based on this sword intent alone, Fudao Sword Master is probably invincible in the Xuanxin realm, but I don't know if he has reached a higher realm."
The man in white was secretly shocked. He squatted down and reached out to touch it.
"Hey, don't touch me, be careful of the sword's power hurting your hands!"
A voice came from the side, and the speaker was Zuo Lin.
Ever since Fudao Jianzun borrowed his father Zuo Yijian's sword to kill the enemy, Zuo Yijian no longer came to Bu Tiantai. He stayed in his room all day long to comprehend the sword, and even his son was not allowed to disturb him.
Zuo Lin had no other way to comprehend the sword intent of Fudao Sword Master, so he could only continue to sit in the Butiantai.
The man in white looked at Zuo Lin and asked with a smile, "Brother, how long have you been at the Bu Tian Terrace?"
Zuo Lin replied, "I have been meditating here since I came up with these two words. You look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here?"
He looked at the man in white with suspicion.
There are so many stories on the Bu Tian Terrace that he couldn't help but think too much.
The man in white smiled and said, "I am from the Shen Tang Dynasty. I just joined the Taixuan Sect this year and became a guest elder of the outer sect. The reason I joined the Taixuan Sect was to help the Sword Master."
When Zuo Lin heard this, he immediately waved at him and motioned for him to sit next to him.
The man in white did not hesitate and quickly came to sit beside him.
Zuo Lin was about to speak when he suddenly saw someone. His eyes lit up and he shouted, "Gu An, come here quickly!"
In the distance, Gu An was wandering among the crowd, looking like he had nothing to do.
Hearing Zuo Lin's call, he hesitated for a moment, but still walked towards Zuo Lin.
The man in white turned his head and looked, and after seeing that the person Zuo Lin called was just a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he withdrew his gaze.
Gu An threw a lifespan probe at him.
[Emperor Evil (Xuanxin Realm Level 3): 2450/8000/19000]
A monster that has lived for more than 2,000 years! The reason why Gu An came to the outer gate city was for Emperor Xie.
The monster that alarmed Lu Lingjun was Emperor Xie! Emperor Xie practiced a special technique, and there was no demonic aura on his body. Unfortunately, his technique could not escape the consciousness of the great monk in the Nirvana realm.
Seeing Gu An slowly approaching, Zuo Lin said to Di Xie: "Don't look at my low level of cultivation, but I have a delicate and spiritual heart. As soon as I saw you, I knew you were not simple."
Upon hearing this, Di Xie’s heart tightened.
