Chapter 676: Chapter 668 Trace of the Immortal Gods
“It’s not an Innate Golden Immortal either.”
Meng Lang replied, causing Zhu Xi’s brow to furrow again, feeling a bit disappointed.
The reason she didn’t guess above the Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal was because such a transcendent existence couldn’t possibly be trapped here.
She stared at Meng Lang, hoping he could convince her.
What reliance did Meng Lang have that made him think he could help her escape?
If he didn’t explain clearly, she wouldn’t follow Meng Lang.
Meng Lang looked ahead, where an Innate Golden Immortal was still passionately speaking, stirring the blood of those present, filling their hearts with high spirits and determination.
Rather than waiting to die, it’s better to fight desperately.
“The Taiwei Great World is really deep.”
Meng Lang, who is actually Gu An, thought to himself.
Gu An, having foreseen in the Celestial Spirit Great World that Zhu Xi was in trouble, came to assist her. He transformed into Meng Lang to avoid getting too involved in karmic entanglements.
After arriving in the Taiwei Great World, Gu An discovered that several Daluo Immortals were hidden within this Great World, and even some of the world’s karma was too profound to calculate.
He had heard before that among the Three Thousand Great Worlds, a few had foundations far exceeding other Great Thousand Worlds, and he realized today that it was true.
This Innate Golden Immortal had already set up a Formation, thinking it would isolate prying eyes, facilitating the stirring of hearts, but little did he know, a Taiqing Golden Immortal was watching him at this moment.
Yes, not a Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal, but a Taiqing Golden Immortal standing above the heavens, toying with two pearls in his hand, his expression so cold, and his eyes reflecting the scene of Zhu Xi and others gathering together.
If Gu An didn’t intervene, Zhu Xi would follow these people to escape, only to be caught by the Taiqing Golden Immortal, brought back to the Dojo, and finally refined into a Ghost Artifact.
Moreover, Gu An felt the presence of an Immortal God in the depths of the Divine Court in the Taiwei Great World, stronger than the Taiyi Immortal Monarch, forcing him to speculate about the relationship between the Taiwei Divine Court and the Celestial Court.
“If you don’t make it clear, I can’t go with you. Who exactly are you, and what backing do you have to help me?” Zhu Xi’s voice interrupted Gu An’s thoughts.
Gu An smiled and said, “Don’t ask so much, just watch.”
Zhu Xi frowned upon hearing this, just as she was about to say more, the speaking Innate Golden Immortal suddenly burst forth with a strong momentum, drawing her attention.
“Everyone, once the escape plan is confirmed, it should not be delayed. We can kill our way out right now. I will open up a tunnel, but it’s uncertain where this tunnel will lead. Most likely, it will lead inside the Divine Court, and we’ll have to improvise afterward.”
The Innate Golden Immortal said while casting spells, drawing circles with his hands, and a black hole appeared in front of him, rapidly expanding, surrounded by intertwining time-space lightning, its darkness making one shiver, appearing so terrifying.
Once the black hole stabilized, he entered it first, followed closely by others.
Some hesitated, but seeing those ahead entering, they gritted their teeth and followed.
Zhu Xi was about to ask Gu An, only to see Gu An follow too.
This made her feel absurd.
Was this person’s plan to follow these people?
Then what was the meaning of everything he said before?
Without him, she would have followed too!
Zhu Xi cursed a few words in her heart and also chose to follow.
She came behind Gu An, staring at his back with an unfriendly look.
If looks could kill, Gu An would probably have turned to dust by now.
The two stepped into the black hole one after the other. As soon as they entered the black hole, Zhu Xi’s vision was swallowed by darkness, and even her Divine Sense couldn’t see, but fortunately, she could feel the surge of Spiritual Energy, and she could also hear Gu An’s footsteps ahead.
“Is this your plan? Without you, I would have followed him!”
Zhu Xi said through gritted teeth, her tone very displeased.
Gu An’s voice followed: “The real trouble starts after we get out. Without me, you will undoubtedly die.”
These words left Zhu Xi uncertain and apprehensive; she could only hold her confusion in check and remain vigilant.
She didn’t completely trust the leading Innate Golden Immortal either, just had no choice but to follow under such desperation.
They moved quickly, and Zhu Xi clearly felt the Spiritual Energy along the way growing richer.
This indicated they were getting closer to the exit!
Zhu Xi grew more nervous, beginning to imagine what they might encounter after escaping.
A while later.
Light finally appeared ahead, and Zhu Xi heard the voices of the people around her, most of whom felt pleasantly surprised, not expecting to truly escape that suppressed place.
As the light in front grew brighter, Zhu Xi gradually saw Gu An’s back.
For some reason, she felt a sense of déjà vu, as if she had seen this person’s back somewhere before.
Soon, she followed Gu An into a bright light, her Divine Sense instantly recovered; she sensed the people ahead stopping all at once, and she also halted her steps.
She opened her eyes and looked ahead, her face instantly freezing.
Not just her, the other escaping individuals also looked forward in disbelief.
Ahead was a vast and boundless forest, like another world, only everyone’s gaze was focused above the forest.
Above the sea of clouds, countless figures in purple armor stood on the clouds, each holding a Divine Weapon. Sweeping the eye over them, one couldn’t count how many there were; the vast army exuded a suppressive momentum.
The leading Innate Golden Immortal’s face turned ashen, as if he hadn’t expected so many enemies waiting outside.
“Your Highness, you are the Crown Prince of the Divine Court. Why commit treason?”
A voice rang out across the heavens, causing a commotion among the escapees, who hadn’t expected this Innate Golden Immortal to be the Crown Prince of the Divine Court.
Zhu Xi frowned deeply, feeling only dread.
Clearly, she had been swept up in a larger karma, where if she hadn’t been incited earlier and stayed in the place of guardianship, she wouldn’t be facing such trouble now.
The Innate Golden Immortal took a deep breath, stepped forward, and shouted loudly, “General Zhu, you are the Eternal Divine General of the Divine Court, protecting the Great World many times, and all living beings revere you. But now the Divine Court has become a lapdog of the Immortal Gods. In the last million years, how many innocent lives have been lost to the Divine Court’s offerings to the Immortal Gods? Can you really remain indifferent?”
“That Immortal God is insatiable, enlarging ambitions step-by-step, and one day will set eyes on the foundation of our Divine Court. We cannot gamble!”
These words made the escapees even more uneasy, how could it also involve the Immortal Gods?
Even in the Taiwei Great World, Immortal Gods were nothing but elusive legends.
They, like Zhu Xi, felt things had become extremely perilous, involving the Crown Prince of the Divine Court and the Immortal Gods, meaning what awaited them was likely an irreversible disaster.
Zhu Xi turned to look at Gu An, noticing not a trace of tension on his face, which only piqued her curiosity even more about how this person planned to lead her out.
Could it be related to that Immortal God?
From what the Divine Court Crown Prince said, that Immortal God seemed very malevolent, but to Zhu Xi, an outsider, the good and evil of this realm were temporarily irrelevant. She just wanted to escape.
