Chapter 738: Great Cause and Effect, Bad Retribution
Gu An found it funny listening to Shangguan Xianer's thoughts. What kind of rumors were circulating in private? Those disciples who went out and never came back were not rejected by Gu An.
"Go ask your teachers for advice. You are not qualified to be taught by me."
Gu An replied, and then continued to carve the wooden statue in his hand.
Shangguan Xian'er widened her eyes, wanting to say something but stopping herself, and finally gave up.
"It seems that my swordsmanship is not good enough and has not caught the Master's eye."
Shangguan Xian'er thought about it and felt that she had finally got the answer. She showed it to Gu An just to see how good her attainments were. Since it didn't work, she would practice again. At least she was more motivated to understand the sword now.
After figuring it out, Shangguan Xian'er became full of energy and regained her usual lively demeanor. She left in a hurry without saying a few words.
Gu An raised the corner of his mouth and continued to carve the wooden statue.
Over the long years, he has had many hobbies, and he would develop any hobby he persisted in into cultivation, just like the wooden man in his hand now, which looks ordinary but actually contains profound knowledge.
He wanted to train these wooden men into a powerful fighting force. The current number in reserve was already considerable, but their cultivation level was not yet high enough.
After Shangguan Xian'er left, no one came to disturb Gu An anymore.
Until dusk, Shen Zhen, who was meditating in front of the refining cauldron, opened her eyes. She looked at Gu An, who was admiring the wooden man in his hand, and said, "Gu An, I saw a person. There was an inexplicable cause and effect guiding me to save her."
After hearing this, Gu An looked at her and asked, "Who is it?"
As he spoke, he followed the cause and effect of Shen Zhen's investigation, and what he saw and heard made him a little excited.
Finally found it! “It was a woman, meditating in darkness. That darkness… I can’t describe it, it’s very depressing…” Shen Zhen took a deep breath and said seriously.
Gu An stood up and put the wooden man in his arms. He looked at Shen Zhen and asked, "Do you want to go and see it?"
After hearing this, Shen Zhen did not agree immediately, but asked hesitantly: "Will it be dangerous? Will I be calculated by some powerful existence, and they want to lead you there through my mouth?"
She has been enlightened for millions of years. Although she does not practice much, she has been enlightened for the longest time. After becoming the Taoist Emperor Hunyuan, she is also the person who has performed the most reincarnation projections in the Taoist temple, more than An Xin.
Although An Xin didn't say it, Gu An knew that in her heart she had already regarded Shen Zhen as her biggest opponent in the future, referring to her opponent in the fighting conference. The Blood Prison Great Sage was no longer a threat to her.
She has a profound understanding of the law of cause and effect, which makes her feel that there are no coincidences in the world.
It is impossible for her to gain enlightenment for no reason, nor is it possible for her to have such a strong desire to save a stranger for no reason.
This must be some powerful person plotting against her behind her back.
What is there about her that deserves such powerful calculations? She could only think that it was because of Gu An.
"There is indeed someone who is guiding you to save that woman." Gu An walked towards her and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Shen Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "You've noticed it a long time ago? Do you know that person?"
"Let's go, we'll talk on the way."
Gu An came to her side and patted her shoulder gently.
Shen Zhen stood up and followed Gu An's footsteps. As soon as she took a step, the scene around her suddenly changed. She was suddenly in darkness. There were silver lights under her feet, like an endless school of fish running forward, never stopping.
Gu An walked in front, Shen Zhen looked at his back, and the uneasiness in his heart disappeared.
She hurriedly followed, walking side by side with Gu An. She asked curiously, "What is this place? Why is there no aura of the Great Dao around?"
"This is the void opened up by the Great Dao of Cause and Effect. Even though there is nothing here, there is the Great Dao of Cause and Effect blocking the edge. The Great Dao of Cause and Effect is the product of the rules constructed by the Three Thousand Great Daos. If you violate the rules of the Great Dao, you will encounter the backlash of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, and your Dao practice will dissipate. At the same time, you will suffer endless misfortune and torture until your consciousness is annihilated."
Gu An replied that this was also his first time coming here. Even if a great Daoist immortal came here, he would not have a good ending if he was affected by the cause and effect of the Dao.
He had suffered the backlash of the great cause and effect when he had used his magical power of cause and effect to curse his enemies before, but compared with the great cause and effect around this plane, it was like a grain of rice compared to the bright moon.
Although the cause and effect of the great Dao here is strong, it cannot harm the Hunyuan Dao Fruit.
In other words, Xuanqi Hunyuan Xian can come and go freely, and the cause and effect of the great Dao are nothing but nonsense to him.
"The great cause and effect... could it be talking about retribution for bad deeds?" Chen Zhen muttered.
"You can understand it this way. Let me tell you a story."
Gu An responded and then told the story of the Eternal Emperor.
The journey was long and he did not walk very fast. Telling stories was just the surface. He was using his own Tao to help the trapped Fairy Yao Xuan expel the cause and effect of the Tao.
Fairy Yaoxuan was entangled in the cause and effect of the great Dao, her consciousness fell into an endless abyss, and she continued to experience the things she feared the most. She had already collapsed.
The reason why she did not completely lose consciousness was because of the blessing of the Emperor of the Great Dao.
It must be said that the Emperor of Dao is indeed an amazing creation who can compete with Dao.
For the fairyland, the cause and effect of Fairy Yaoxuan's great Dao cannot be dispelled, and the Eternal Emperor is helpless. But for Gu An now, the backlash of her cause and effect can be solved.
Shen Zhen didn't pay much attention at first. She listened and felt this strange and unknown universe, but soon she was attracted by the story of the Eternal Emperor.
He was born in a tragic situation, his parents died, he practiced with hatred in his heart, met the person he loved, but they were eventually separated. He traveled the heavens with his obsession, but before he could save the person he loved, he was hunted down by the gods.
Shen Zhen has always had the habit of writing books, but she was still attracted by the life story of the Eternal Emperor and immersed in it, even her emotions were affected.
Somehow, she seemed to be able to empathize with the Eternal Emperor.
"The Eternal Emperor dedicated himself to the Great Karma Monument, hoping to use the most perfect creation of the Karma Avenue to pursue Fairy Yaoxuan."
Gu An stopped talking here and glanced at Shen Zhen.
Shen Zhen understood, and she asked: "The woman I saw was Fairy Yaoxuan, and the cause and effect that guided me to save her was the obsession of the Eternal Emperor?"
Gu An replied: "That's right, once Fairy Yao Xuan is saved, this karma will be over, and you won't be affected anymore."
Shen Zhen frowned and said, "But why did the Emperor of Eternal Life choose me? Do I have any relationship with Fairy Yaoxuan? Am I her descendant?"
"You are not, sin is."
"I'm not? Then why are you looking for me?"
Shen Zhen was puzzled. She suddenly thought of something, widened her eyes, and asked in surprise: "Are you the descendant of the Eternal Emperor? No, what is your relationship with the Eternal Emperor? Are you the reincarnation of the Eternal Emperor?"
When he thought that Gu An was the Eternal Emperor, Shen Zhen's mood became strange and inexplicable.
Gu An shook his head and laughed, "He has died in the Great Karma Monument. He has no chance of reincarnation. I just know him."
This is the truth. The Eternal Emperor has not been reincarnated. Instead, he is the reincarnation of Gu An.
