Chapter 728 The Real Immortal
"I saw an extremely huge black hole appear above the void of the Great Dao. Many evil demons poured out of it and flew towards the Three Thousand Worlds. They looked very scary. I can't describe them. Anyway, even in my dreams, I felt desperate and suffocated."
Shen Zhen frowned and recounted his feelings from the previous dream.
Gu An was not surprised because he saw the same scene.
The origins of those evil demons are the same as those of Chaos Resentful Luo, they all came from the chaos outside the sky. As for why they descended into the Three Thousand Worlds, Gu An has not seen it yet, but he can be sure that it is related to the Heavenly Court because he saw a strong aura of heaven in the black hole.
Chen Zhen continued to speak, and Gu An listened while refining the treasure, occasionally responding.
Half an hour later.
Gu An left the courtyard alone and walked down the mountain road. He admired the scenery along the way while looking up at the sky.
Piaomiao Immortal Court is ready to intervene in the fight for the throne. They feel this is a rare opportunity, which also makes Tianhao prepare in advance.
Since entering Piaomiao Immortal Court, Tianhao has experienced many ups and downs and trials. Generally speaking, it has been smooth sailing, and now he has become one of the most valued geniuses in Piaomiao Immortal Court.
His identity as the reincarnation of the emperor has not yet been revealed.
But in the future battle for the emperor, Tianhao will awaken his original consciousness and become the emperor again. As to whether he can return to heaven, it is still unknown.
Looking at Tian Hao, Gu An's eyes were filled with An Hao's appearance.
Although Tianhao still has him in his heart, he can feel that their master-disciple relationship is gradually weakening and the distance between them is widening.
Once Tianhao regains his status as emperor, it will be even more difficult for them to meet again.
Time can really turn two close people into strangers.
Gu An didn't feel uncomfortable. This change just made him feel emotional, and he quite enjoyed it.
He adopted the young eagle, raised it personally, and watched the eagle flap its wings and fly away.
The cause and effect in the world are connected into a line. They will intersect and stagger, leading to different destinies. See through fate and enjoy all fate.
After seeing Tian Hao, Gu An looked at other old friends, including Jiang Qiong, Li Xuandao, the cultivators from Renjian Peak, and those old friends who were now strangers to him.
One million six hundred and eighty thousand years passed.
Less than 10% of the old friends survived, but those who are still alive have become powerful and influential.
Looking at them, Gu An recalled every detail of the past.
The higher his cultivation level, the more cause and effect Gu An can see. It is equivalent to having a lot more memories. The memories of the past are constantly compressed. Although he will not forget them, they are easy to ignore at ordinary times.
He didn't want to forget where he came from.
Ever since he broke through to the level of Xuanqi Hunyuan Immortal, Gu An could feel his state of mind changing. It was so powerful that he gradually became indifferent to many things.
The difference between immortals and mortals is real.
Just like mortals cannot empathize with flowers, plants and trees, this is caused by the essential differences.
Gu An finally understood why the gods in heaven were so indifferent to ordinary people. They were immortal and absolutely powerful and could witness any changes in the world. In their eyes, everything was meaningless and only the changes in their own status were meaningful.
In Gu An's eyes, the blooming and withering of flowers along the way symbolizes individual lives.
Gradually, with every step he took, the scene around him changed.
When he stopped, he had come to a farmland. The golden rice fields were reflecting the sunlight. There was a village in the distance with wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys.
Gu An turned his head and looked at an old farmer who was working. He asked with a smile: "Old man, you are still working at such an old age? Where are your children and grandchildren?"
The old farmer was wearing patched cloth clothes, had a hunched back, and looked to be in his seventies or eighties. He moved slowly, and sweat dripped down his bark-like cheeks, but he didn't care.
Hearing Gu An's words, he stopped what he was doing and slowly turned his head to look at Gu An. His eyes narrowed into two slits and his mouth was toothless. He showed a kind smile and replied, "Although I am old, I still have a lot of strength. As for my children, they were captured by monsters in the mountains in their early years. I do have a grandson, and he must study and pass the imperial examinations as soon as possible. How can he do such hard work?"
Upon hearing this, Gu An nodded slightly.
The old farmer asked curiously, "Where did this young man come from?"
He had lived for so many years, but he had never seen anyone as brightly dressed as Gu An, with such outstanding temperament, like an immortal.
Of course, even if he really was an immortal, he would not be excited. He had seen through life and was ready to face the end at any time.
Gu An smiled and said, "I came from the east and wanted to travel all over the world and see all the scenery in this world. I am a little tired when I pass by here. Old man, do you mind if I chat with you?"
The old farmer smiled and said, "No problem, no problem. How about coming to my house? Although I don't have good food or good wine, I can still help you quench your thirst and fill your stomach."
Gu An took two steps forward, sat on the slope, and said with a smile: "No, I'll just sit here and chat with you."
The old farmer tried hard to stand up straight, put his hands on the hoe, and looked at Gu An with a smile.
"I have come across many immortal cultivation sects along the way. Why don't you let your grandson cultivate immortality, but instead take the imperial examination?" Gu An asked.
The old farmer shook his head and laughed, "What's so good about cultivating immortals? His parents once pursued immortal fate, but unfortunately, they had no spiritual roots and could only return in disappointment. They were captured by monsters because they were unwilling to give up and stole the monsters' treasures. I don't want my grandson to follow their old path. After all, like father and son, like son, like daughter. If my grandson had immortal fate, his parents would not have been rejected by the immortal sect."
"You seem to be open-minded, but what does your grandson think?"
"He probably wants to cultivate immortality, but now, in order to satisfy me, he wants to pass the imperial examination first, start a family, and avoid our family name being cut off by him."
Gu An and the old farmer chatted casually like this, as if they were talking about family matters, without any purpose, just talking about whatever came to mind.
He not only asked questions, but also talked about what he had seen and heard along the way, making the old farmer sigh at the vastness of the world from time to time.
After chatting for a full half hour, Gu An finally stood up.
Gu An stood on the slope, facing the sun, and stretched lazily. The old farmer looked at him with a smile, not feeling sad about the upcoming separation.
"Old man, when your life is over, we should meet."
Gu An looked down at the old farmer and chuckled.
The old farmer was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you really an immortal?"
Gu An replied: "Compared to me, you are the real immortal."
Hearing this, the old farmer was neither surprised nor confused. He still had that kind smile on his face. He wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Really? If so, that would be great. This way I can bless my grandson to succeed in the imperial examination."
Gu An turned and left, leaving behind a few words: "When you become an immortal, maybe you won't miss him anymore."
