[You cultivated in energy absorption for 390,000 years, and your cultivation level broke through to the second layer of the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm]
[You cultivated in energy absorption for 400,000 years, and your cultivation level broke through to the third layer of the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm]
[You cultivated in energy absorption for 420,000 years, and your cultivation level broke through to the fourth layer of the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm]
…
[You cultivated in energy absorption for 500,000 years, and your cultivation level broke through to the eighth layer of the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm]
Seeing all the indications fall, Gu An summarized the pattern and invested another 30,000 years of his life span, successfully reaching the ninth layer of the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm.
At the same time, nature’s spiritual energy already bore into his body, symbolizing the start of his breakthrough.
It felt so comfortable!
Gu An considered whether to spend another 30,000 years of life span to foresee the name of the next realm, but then thought it would be futile, for what use was knowing a name?
The surrounding forest began to shake violently as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth descended.
The ground beneath Gu An showed signs of a Qi Sea, and the speed at which spiritual energy entered his body became faster. He began to imagine the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm.
What is the difference between a Wandering Immortal and a Heavenly Flying Immortal?
Gu An looked at the sky. In the depths of his mind, he felt it was related to the heavens.
After reaching the Wandering Immortal Realm, he could sense a certain power from the heavens suppressing all beings, making it impossible to leave. Wandering Immortals could break free from the constraints of heaven and earth rules but could not escape the suppression from the heavenly power above.
Boom——
The speed at which spiritual energy entered his body reached an unprecedented level, even making Gu An somewhat alarmed.
How wide a range of spiritual energy was needed for this?
It didn’t take long for the entire continent’s living creatures to be startled, with birds flying chaotically, beasts fleeing wildly, and the earth trembling.
Gu An did not bother to worry about the commotion, as a large amount of immortal insights poured into his body.
Heavenly Flying Immortal!
One can leap beyond heaven and earth, roam the universe! Enjoy stories on m_v lemp-yr
One can peep into yin and yang, and control the five elements!
Upon reaching this level, one must delve into the Path of Five Elements to progress further.
The Heaven and Earth Primordial Skill Gu An practiced was precisely a Five Elements Cultivation Technique, so his breakthrough went smoothly.
His primordial spirit underwent an unprecedented transformation, giving his soul a feeling of joy surpassing any form of pleasure.
An hour later, Gu An completely crossed into the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm.
The oceans surrounding the continent also erupted into monstrous waves, a scene formed by countless underwater demonic beasts surging, affecting unknowable miles.
Gu An opened his eyes, his primordial spirit leaping out of his body.
He instinctively wanted to break free from the Life Span Barrier, leap out of this heaven and earth, and peek into the higher world.
However, he restrained himself.
He gazed up at the night sky, his eyes penetrating millions of miles high, and he saw an invisible membrane enveloping the night sky, like a prison cage binding all beings of heaven and earth.
He felt he could cross that invisible heavenly layer, but he didn’t dare to at the moment.
Having no understanding of the world beyond, he couldn’t rush there.
Suddenly.
Gu An spotted that invisible heavenly layer producing ripples. He looked towards the direction from which the ripples came and saw a figure descending from the sky, falling to the end of heaven and earth.
Someone arriving from the outer heavens?
He dared not look too closely, fearing to disturb the other.
He suddenly realized that the world and the outer heavens weren’t so isolated. Heavenly Flying Immortals of this heaven and earth would venture out but also return?
He continued to enjoy the process of spiritual energy tempering his body.
After the breakthrough, his primordial spirit had already transformed into a Flying Immortal Primordial Spirit, capable of slipping into yin and yang. By yin, it did not mean underground but another world contrary to this one.
He could see the wandering souls in heaven and earth, and those souls about to enter reincarnation, flying into the sky, and disappearing less than 100,000 miles above, being pulled into the underworld by reincarnation.
Gu An could already sense the chilling aura of the underworld, so cold that he didn’t wish to trespass.
His cultivation level continued to rise!
The speed of spiritual energy entering his body still increased, the Qi Sea on the ground resembling waves ready to engulf him at any moment.
His primordial spirit continued to gaze at the sky.
An hour later, he saw a Heavenly Flying Immortal escaping into the outer heavens in the distance, confirming even more that this world had other Heavenly Flying Immortals, and reaching the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm did not mean one had to leave this realm.
It suggested that the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm might not be the highest realm in this world!
No matter what, Gu An’s desire to explore the outer heavens was not that intense; staying in the comfort zone was the safest.
Being able to grow stronger, why leave the comfort zone?
Time flowed quickly.
A full two ancient hours passed before Gu An’s cultivation level stabilized at the ninth layer of the Heavenly Flying Immortal Realm.
The Life Span Barrier consumed nearly 700,000 years of life span, an exaggeration.
The next breakthrough, to fully reinforce, would consume millions of years of lifespan just on the Life Span Barrier?
A heavy burden and a long path ahead!
After the spiritual energy no longer entered his body, and the world returned to calm, Gu An slowly stood up.
He did not immediately remove the Life Span Barrier but sensed his own strength.
His mana, and senses, both underwent a transformation; the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Path, and the gaps thereafter would only grow wider.
Gu An felt that a Wandering Immortal couldn’t defeat a Heavenly Flying Immortal across realms, mastering any divine power would not suffice.
Elsewhere.
In the demon land, within a dark forest.
A space rift suddenly appeared, and a severely injured An Hao was tossed out from it.
He immediately got up and flew south, constantly calling for his master in his heart, but unfortunately, as before, his master did not appear.
“Damn it… it’s all because I’m too weak…”
An Hao gritted his teeth, his pride shattered that night.
The scenes of Xuan Tianyi using a mysterious scroll to send him away kept flashing in his mind, and his ears echoed with Xuan Tianyi’s ambitious words.
“Go back, I won’t die here, wait for me to return and find you.”
The more carefree Xuan Tianyi appeared, the more worried An Hao became, as those seven mysterious great cultivators were overwhelmingly powerful, Xuan Tianyi was absolutely outmatched.
“Who exactly are they? What did Senior Xuan leave on my back?”
An Hao thought anxiously and angrily, recalling how before parting, Xuan Tianyi slapped him into the space rift. At the moment he was struck, he felt his back burn, and now it itched as though someone were using a small knife to carve words on his back.
He felt Senior Xuan detected something and left the information on his back, but now he could not use his divine sense to check. Whenever his divine sense approached his back, it was repelled by a mysterious power.
He quickly took out a Spirit Energy Elixir and forcefully poured it into his mouth.
His gaze became determined.
He would definitely return!
If Xuan Tianyi died, no matter who the murderer was, he would seek revenge for Xuan Tianyi!
…
The moon set, and the sun rose.
Heaven and earth completely calmed down, and Gu An then removed the Life Span Barrier and headed towards the Supreme Sect.
With just three steps, he returned to the Supreme Sect.
He returned to the Mystic Valley, came down from the building, and rode the Blood Prison Great Saint towards Tianya Valley.
The Blood Prison Great Saint could feel his good mood, humming an unfamiliar tune.
He had to admit, it sounded quite nice.
Gu An spread his divine sense, taking in the entire continent, even encompassing the surrounding seas.
He began to inspect old friends one by one.
Jiang Qiong’s Juhua Sect seemed very harmonious, and she was practicing in the sect master’s mansion.
Ye Lan was handling affairs of the Law Enforcement Hall, appearing very different from how she faced Gu An, exuding an ice queen temperament.
Li Ya and Zhang Buku were being chased by a great demon, appearing dangerous but likely to survive.
Gu An also saw An Hao, who was escaping. With no pursuers behind, he couldn’t be bothered to intervene.
His divine sense swept over friends and disciples, and then glanced at the demonic energy-filled land still teeming with many Seven Stars Spirit Realm cultivators.
Gu An felt he could easily break the seal and spy on the Evil Demon but refrained.
The Seven Stars Spirit Realm’s growth speed couldn’t keep up with his own.
Unless the Seven Stars Spirit Realm actively provoked him, he intended to lay low.
Anyway, the Three Dynasties’ land was far from the demonic energy land, and unless it was a catastrophic disaster, he preferred not to intervene.
After leaving the Mystic Valley’s range, the Blood Prison Great Saint suddenly felt his body enveloped by a terrifying power, causing his steps to falter as the surrounding environment changed drastically.
They immediately found themselves less than 200 miles away from Tianya Valley.
What kind of divine skill was this?
The Blood Prison Great Saint marveled internally; it wasn’t his first time experiencing this divine skill, but he had no idea how far they had traveled due to being sealed by the Path of Returning Primordial Spirit.
As the strongest being in the Spirit Realm, he was trying to sense Gu An’s divine skills to learn, but had yet to figure out the trick.
Half a day later.
Gu An again rode the Blood Prison Great Saint to arrive at the Third Medicine Valley.
The disciples had grown accustomed to seeing him always riding a bull, and some even went to buy first-order mounts in the Outer Gate City to imitate him, though first-order demon beasts rarely had the presence of the Bull Demon King.
He sensed Shen Zhen’s presence, waiting for him in a pavilion.
This guy isn’t releasing another book so soon, right?
Gu An urged the Blood Prison Great Saint to quicken his pace, reaching the pavilion and dismounting.
Watching Gu An’s anxious back, the Blood Prison Great Saint felt stifled.
In such a hurry, couldn’t he just walk himself?
It was just a few steps!
He couldn’t understand why Gu An needed to act weak in front of these minor cultivators, so he lay down to sleep, reliving his invincible moments in his dreams.
Entering the room, Gu An closed the door.
Shen Zhen sat on a chair, pointing to a jade scroll on the table with a mysterious smile.
Gu An approached the table and asked, “What is this?”
Shen Zhen raised her white chin, proudly smiling, “This is my new work, guaranteed to shock the immortal cultivation world!”
Gu An looked skeptical, picking up the jade scroll and probing it with his divine sense.
His face instantly turned red and he immediately withdrew his divine sense, incredulously looking at Shen Zhen.
“You… you did this?” Gu An asked, trembling.
Could she be a genius?
This creation could indeed shock the immortal cultivation world, it was incredible, damn it, it was outrageous!
Shen Zhen raised an eyebrow, smiling, “How is it? Isn’t the idea of making pictures move like real people amazing?”
Gu An didn’t know how to respond.
Immortal cultivation world anime?
But this anime was too lifelike, no different from real people.
Using such design in the Supreme Secret Records’ plot was truly impactful.
Gu An resisted the tumult in his heart, asking, “Who is the male cultivator in it?”
Shen Zhen looked at him, blinking, “I didn’t use your face, but thinking of other men was too uncomfortable for me, so I had him wear a mask.”
Gu An fell silent.
No wonder the mask…
His physique was very similar to his own!
