Chapter 990: Chapter 148: When Jia Wei Cos Knocking
The giant tree supports the sky, casting thousands of green shades.
A young figure is suspended sitting cross-legged above the wilderness.
The entire world seems to center around him.
The frigid wind swirls.
The blades of grass bow in submission.
Where he sits, countless lead clouds gather at the Skytop, thundering continuously with the occasional Thunder Dragon rolling within the clouds, yet heavy rain never falls… This scene falls into the eyes of the two figures under the giant tree.
“No wonder you are Lord Divine.”
Tie Wu wipes the sweat from his face.
His eyes sparkle with brilliance.
The distant figure sitting in the wind can only be seen as a faint silhouette, yet it emits a pressure that makes the whole world bow… As the first Angel Envoy of the Pure Land World, Tie Wu cultivates the grass and plants, creating an innate sense with these spirits of flora over ti.
Now with Gu Shen’s appearance, the spirits of flora in this world have a desire to worship.
Worship the creator of the world!
Praise the god!
Even… the giant tree behind him does the sa, countless green shades swaying with the wind as if invisible arms are shielding Gu Shen from the chill, providing warmth —
Hong Zhong looks at this scene in a daze.
The scene is sincerely shocking, leaving him speechless.
The fundantal substances of the world, the breath of the wind swirl around Gu Shen. Even the remaining Souls of the Pure Land World also feel an attraction.
“Lord Divine seems to be attempting a ‘Breakthrough’?”
Tie Wu tilts his head, thinks for a while, then shakes his head, saying, “No, not right… What boundary does Lord Divine need to break…”
In this Spiritual Divine Domain, he can’t sense Gu Shen’s realm.
Everything relies on guessing.
Moreover, due to the taming power of the Netherworld King’s Spark, any Soul revived within the Divine Domain innately recognizes Gu Shen as their master, so no matter how Tie Wu views it, he will only see Gu Shen as imnsely great, too grand to look upon directly.
After thinking long and hard.
Tie Wu has a guess in his heart.
“Lord Divine… needs no more breakthroughs… then he must be creating so ‘Divine Miracle’… Hmm, could it be Breathing thod?”
The young figure in the distance seems to have his chest gently rising and falling.
The whole world follows his breath, contracting lightly, expanding slowly, performing a gentle, rhythmic “pulsation.”
Tie Wu’s pupils constrict.
He feels … the “seasons” of the entire Pure Land World seem to be changing?
The original potential of all things coming to life remains, but with several breaths of Gu Shen, his back sweats and the oppressive feel of the Skytop’s lead clouds grows stronger.
The whole world… seems to have heated up?
Is this… from spring to sumr?
Tie Wu and Hong Zhong’s breaths beco rapid, yet regretfully, the lead clouds at the Skytop dissipate slowly after several seconds, and the heat from “spring to sumr” gradually fades away… A wave of coolness blows in the wind, dispelling the heat throughout, making them much more comfortable.
…
…
“One hundred and thirty-fourth ti… failure…”
Gu Shen sits amidst the breath of the wind, slowly opening his eyes.
Creation of the second volu of the Breathing thod still ends in failure.
He exhales slowly, dispersing the dark clouds, his mood not overly disappointed. Mr. Gu Changzhi’s ‘Four Seasons Wilderness’ ensures that most Transcendents can achieve stable spiritual cultivation up to the twelfth level with just one volu of Jingzhe Guyu.
The true prodigies, like Bai Xiu of S-grade, can comprehend two volus of Breathing thod in the early stages of cultivation, gaining insight into the complete ‘Spring Breathing.’
This is the greatest gift left to the world by Mr. Gu Changzhi.
An unprecedented, top-tier ‘Open Scroll Breathing thod.’
All things in this world begin life in spring; the sa applies to Transcendent cultivation. Those prodigies able to comprehend the complete ‘Spring Breathing’ can independently create subsequent ‘Breathing thods,’ as long as they follow natural laws, they can create a suitable and personal ‘Sumr Breathing,’ ‘Autumn Breathing’…
Mr. Gu Changzhi has passed away.
He left the most vibrant and lively ‘Jingzhe Spring Rain’ to astonish future generations.
As for the bleak and desolate ‘Great Cold,’ he reserved it for himself.
“As for ‘Sumr Breathing,’ I’m still lacking so maturity…”
“Is it because the seeds and crops of the ‘Pure Land’ have yet to harvest?”
Gu Shen looks down upon the wilderness, pondering.
Now, the cultivation has made the Pure Land quite substantial, appearing prosperous, yet the planted seeds, despite taking root and sprouting, grow extrely slowly… Like being suppressed by so ‘rule.’
His ‘Pure Land’ is a unique Divine Miracle!
But a miracle does not an able to break rules.
The developnt of ‘Pure Land’ is closely tied to his ‘spiritual power’ and ‘quantity of origin;’ if ‘spiritual power’ is insufficient, the growth of the spirits of plants will cease… Likewise, if ‘origin’ is lacking, the whole Pure Land will wither.
“Therefore… I need to break through to allow these ‘seeds’ to grow…”
Gu Shen rubs his chin, muttering: “Or perhaps, I need to push ‘Pure Land’ into sumr to comprehend the second volu of Breathing thod?”
This problem stumped Gu Shen.
The link of cause and effect is hard to grasp.
Recalling the birth of Pure Land Suxuan Wood and Spring Breathing, it’s difficult to delineate who pushed whom, who determined whom… The path of cultivation is inherently interconnected.
Now, he is stuck at this bottleneck.
“My ti cultivating is too short still…”
Gu Shen thinks for a mont, coming to this conclusion.
How extraordinary was Mr. Gu Changzhi?
He pioneered the four seasons and created the Eight Rolls of Breathing, taking decades… While he himself is rely at the threshold of ‘Sumr Breathing’ in two years.
If Mr. Gu Changzhi had a spirit and saw his current progress, he would likely be surprised.
Gu Shen murmured to himself, “My cultivation speed is already fast enough. This second volu of the breathing technique should not be rushed.”
He shook his head, clearing his thoughts.
Gu Shen decided to slow down his comprehension of the “Sumr Breathing”. This is not the sa as “hitting the Golden Hoop” in cultivation… More attempts do not necessarily make it better.
The comprehension of breathing techniques requires the right ti, place, and harmony with people.
This is not sothing that can be solved with sheer effort.
Even soone as talented as Gu Changzhi, without inspiration, trying multiple tis would be in vain and just a waste of ti.
Gu Shen glanced at Tie Wu and Hong Zhong on the other side. A wisp of thought swept past, and an invisible breeze enveloped him… He concealed his figure, but in reality, he was still sitting cross-legged above the clouds of the Four Seasons Wilderness.
“How are the news about the Holy Judges lately?”
He had been in seclusion, cultivating in the yard of Xuankong Mountain for seven days.
These seven days had been peaceful.
No outsiders ca to disturb due to the ssage he sent out beforehand.
“Duke Zhuxue’s airship has just returned to Central City… The Holy Judges’ investigation of the Duolu River Disaster Realm has concluded.” Chu Ling’s figure was pieced together from fuzzy codes.
She appeared next to Gu Shen, looking down with him at the thriving Four Seasons Wilderness.
The sky full of grass and leaves held her aloft.
“Jia Wei and those Holy Judges… are currently under imnse public pressure.” Chu Ling said, “Their investigation might not be able to last long.”
“Hmm.”
Gu Shen heard this news and did not feel happy.
“I don’t know why… my heart feels sowhat uneasy.”
He leaned back, in the void countless steels twisted out of nowhere, forming a throne to catch him.
Gu Shen held his head, murmuring, “I clearly have prepared, but this feeling of unease… where is it coming from?”
The small yard on Xuankong Mountain was filled with Qingzhong Ancient Text.
These ancient texts could prevent the overflow of spirit.
Besides, the sealed item carried by ng Xiao had been burnt to ashes by Chi Huo.
The magic robe and bracelet were placed by Gu Shen in the Pure Land Domain within his Spirit Sea.
Thinking back and forth.
He couldn’t figure out… what “secret art” the Holy Judges might have to locate him, and that’s the scariest part.
Not knowing what move the opponent would make.
Gu Shen took a deep breath and raised his palm. With a “swoosh”, a cross pendant appeared in his palm.
He clutched the “Goddess of Destiny’s Sanctuary”, and asked softly, “Did the Holy Judges find any clues in the Duolu River Disaster Realm?”
“…”
Of course, the pendant wouldn’t answer.
But it could provide certain feedback based on Gu Shen’s doubts.
A piece of calmness.
“No clues?”
Gu Shen frowned and asked again, “So… did they find because Light City has so unique soul sense?”
“…”
Still a piece of calmness.
It seems it’s not a direct “locking on people” spell either.
This ti, Gu Shen pondered on the throne for a long ti.
In a hoarse voice, he asked, “Is my sense of anxiety related to ng Xiao’s ‘relics’?”
“…!”
This ti, the pendant provided a different response, it sent out a wisp of spirit indicating affirmation.
Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and imdiately leaned forward.
He reached out and grabbed, instantly drawing an exquisitely transparent bracelet from the far void… After he washed away the “Light Aura” inside the bracelet, it beca dim, without light, and somber.
“Is it related to this bracelet?”
The only possibility Gu Shen could think of was this “Catastrophe Divination Bracelet” that he couldn’t even fathom!
He knew very well.
This was ng Xiao’s relic… Although with such an extraordinary treasure, ng Xiao might not have inford Light City.
But what if those Holy Judges had records?
Gu Shen wouldn’t foolishly take out the bracelet and wear it. All these days, he had been pressing the magic robe and bracelet under the Pure Land Suxuan Wood… to ensure nothing went wrong.
“Could it be… soone can sense this bracelet spiritually?”
Gu Shen’s expression imdiately turned somber. He stared at the bracelet he had thoroughly “cleansed”… If it weren’t for the “Goddess of Destiny’s Sanctuary” giving a positive response, he wouldn’t have thought of this possibility at all.
Is this Light City’s ans?
Incredible!
Fantastic!
At this mont, in the real world, outside the yard of Xuankong Mountain, a group of Holy Judges arrived.
The Duolu River investigation had just ended.
Jia Wei, after receiving guidance from the “temple”, directly brought his subordinates and the list of people down from Duke Zhuxue’s airship… And the first na on the list was no one else but Gu Shen!
“Knock Knock Knock——”
The Red-armored Knight expressionlessly knocked on the gate of Xuankong Mountain’s courtyard.
…
