Chapter 678: Chapter 670: Substitute

The Three Thousand Great Worlds will be destroyed?

Gu An was also surprised to hear this. In his view, although the Immortal Gods were tyrannical and saw all living beings as nothing, they would still adhere to the so-called Celestial Rules, even if it meant destroying the world, they needed just cause.

The Celestial Court indeed had the power to annihilate the Three Thousand Great Worlds in an instant, but wouldn’t doing so violate the Celestial Rules?

Gu An suddenly felt that the so-called Celestial Rules were quite flexible; when it involved the highest authority, the rules were just child’s play.

“What do you think we should do?” the Celestial Spirit God looked at Gu An and asked seriously.

The Celestial Gods guarding the Great Thousand World had begun to take action, seeking a way out. To them, the Great Thousand World represented divine authority. If the Great Thousand World were lost, their positions would be destabilized, and their cultivation would suffer backlash.

The Celestial Gods see all living beings as ants, just as the supreme beings of the Celestial Court see the Celestial Gods as ants.

Gu An stopped walking, glanced at a few Spirit Beasts squatting in front of a street stall, and replied, “Let things take their natural course. Before anything happens, the only thing you can do is cultivate diligently.”

The Celestial Spirit God had no choice but to give up after hearing this.

Thinking about Gu An’s unfathomable cultivation level, he felt that when the catastrophe of the fight for the Celestial Emperor broke out in the Celestial Spirit Great World, his predicament might not be as difficult as it seemed now.

He then continued to recount his experiences from a recent journey, and Gu An listened attentively. Their conversation was only audible to them, and even while walking down a busy street, they didn’t attract any attention.

After spending half a day exploring the Qiankun Sect, the Celestial Spirit God returned through the World Gate.

Gu An continued to wander around the city.

With the joining of twenty geniuses from the Undefeated Emperor Clan, the Qiankun Sect was thriving, reaching an unprecedented period of prosperity. The top genius Yuan Luo continuously enhanced its reputation outside, attracting more people to e and seek guidance.

At dusk, Gu An carried a Wine Gourd in his hand. He stopped, drinking while watching the motion.

The disciples on the street were observing a conflict between two young male disciples. One of them, once a genius, had been crippled during training outside and was now enduring humiliation from the other disciple.

The other disciple was a descendant of an elder within the sect, which meant no one dared to step forward to intervene.

Gu An had no intention of getting involved. Watching the scene unfold, he reflected deeply.

For the disciples of the Qiankun Sect, the sect represented the whole Martial World. For the people of the world, the heavens were vast and boundless, unaware that the Great Thousand World was as insignificant as dust to certain beings.

Gu An pondered the path he wanted to take and what rules he should follow.

He believed he could find his true self amidst the turmoil, for he had risen from the depths.

…

Time ebbed away, and four hundred years passed.

In a valley, Zhu Xi, dressed in black, stood on the surface of the lake, holding a long sword with its blade horizontal in front of her as she closed her eyes.

Gu An lay on the grass by the lake, holding the Seven-Star Mirror, peering into the scenes of the Human World within the Taiwei Great World.

The Divine Court Crown Prince was but a microcosm; there were many people in the world who wanted to resist the Divine Court and that Immortal God. The Divine Court Crown Prince was also persuaded, and these people had already formed a faction, although lacking the power of the Divine Court, they could only remain hidden.

Whenever someone was taken to bee a Divine Disciple, these individuals would appear, seeking to win over the offspring or siblings of the Divine Disciples using hatred.

But…

Gu An saw the leader of this faction secretly kneeling before the ruler of the Divine Court; it was all a ploy.

The Divine Court’s control over the Taiwei Great World was too deep, and for this Great Thousand World to overthrow their rule was extremely difficult.

However, as Gu An taught Zhu Xi to cultivate, he saw a variable.

Zhu Xi would stand in opposition to the Divine Court; once she could deal with that Immortal God, she could replace the Divine Court.

Boom!

A vast Sword Intent blew from the lake surface, causing a gust of wind that stirred the flowers and grass, creating a green wave around Gu An.

Gu An slowly sat up and tucked the Seven-Star Mirror into his arms, turning his gaze to Zhu Xi on the lake.

Zhu Xi still held her sword, her Sword Intent materialized into thousands of silver stars floating above the lake, creating a beautiful and fantastical scene. Her dress billowed, and her long hair flowed, exuding an otherworldly aura.

“Finally entered the Dao, did you? This speed truly deserves the Saint Heavenly aptitude.”

Gu An thought to himself silently; Zhu Xi’s previous life was as Shengtian, unrivaled and symbolic of the strongest talent in one Great Thousand World.

The Sword Intent Zhu Xi prehended was precisely the Sacred Heart Sword Dao.

The Sacred Heart Sword Dao was created by his reincarnation body, Yang Xian, depending on the River of Sword Dao, needing no life span to transform and improve; the Sacred Heart Sword Dao continued to grow stronger.

Aside from mastering the Sacred Heart Sword Dao, Gu An had used his Dao Intent over the years to assist Zhu Xi in her cultivation, allowing her to gain many insights and creative ideas. She might be able to develop a different Sacred Heart Sword Dao.

Zhu Xi opened her eyes, her gaze sharp, as if two sword beams shot out from them. She slowly raised her head.

She could already feel the Sacred Heart Sword Dao guiding her from an unfathomable distance. The feeling was subtle, allowing her to even harness the power of the Sacred Heart Sword Dao.

Turning to look at Gu An in the distance, she flickered and appeared before him out of thin air, bowing and saying, “Senior, I have barely entered the Dao.”

Gu An stood and looked at her, smiling, “Since that’s the case, we should part ways. Do you want to stay in the Taiwei Great World, or go elsewhere? I can help you one more time.”

Zhu Xi was surprised, not expecting Gu An to leave today, but she was too embarrassed to ask him to stay, so she replied, “I wish to stay.”

“Then be sure of your decision, for I won’t be there to help you later. This Great Thousand World is brewing a terrible disaster, even if you cultivate for millions of years, changing fate will be difficult.” Gu An said seriously.

Zhu Xi took a deep breath and said, “I’ve long made up my mind. This Great Thousand World has a richer Spiritual Energy and Great Dao pared to others I’ve visited, and there are internal issues within the ruling power. There’s room for me to grow here, and I want to stay. Perhaps I can achieve something great.”

Gu An smiled and said no more, turning to leave.

Zhu Xi watched his back and suddenly knelt, gritting her teeth, saying, “Thank you, Master, for your love. I’ve never been filial to you, but one day, I’ll stand proudly before you and make you proud of me.”

Gu An didn’t pause or look back, his figure vanishing.

Zhu Xi couldn’t sense any trace of Gu An, feeling hollow inside.

After all these years together, she finally realized that this Meng Lang was indeed her master in the Celestial Spirit Great World, Gu An, known as the Supporting Dao Sword Venerable.

However, she couldn’t tell if the master came for her or just happened to pass by this world.

She thought it was likely just passing by, which showed how unmon this Great Thousand World was.

“Immortal Gods…”

Zhu Xi’s eyes flickered, her gaze revealed ambition, giving her a majestic and oppressive aura.
