Chapter 149 Rapidly Increasing Lifespan
In the past month, Gu An harvested 1.07 million years of life by relying on Epiphyllum, almost all of which were harvested in the first half of the month. The later the time went, the harder it was to take away life. More Epiphyllums withered directly after he picked them, which surprised him.
In the dark, it seemed that some kind of power took away the vitality of these Epiphyllums in advance.
Although he didn't know the reason, Gu An was satisfied.
Thanks to the Epiphyllum Sect, he saved 20 years of work and his life span reached 4.39 million years.
After the fall of the Epiphyllum Sect, the Nine Dynasties welcomed jubilation, and various versions of the story spread among the people. The Epiphyllum Sect became the most terrifying sect in the world, and the mountain god became the belief of the people.
This day.
In the mountains of Beihai, in a forest.
Xuanmiao Zhenren knelt on the ground with a pious expression.
He suddenly heard a voice, his face showed joy, and then walked in another direction.
Two hours later, Xuanmiao Zhenren stopped. He stood on a hillside and looked up. He could see the sparkling Beihai.
"Just build a Taoist temple for me here, and cultivate a medicinal field to plant medicinal herbs for me." Gu An's voice sounded in Xuanmiao Zhenren's ears.
Xuanmiao Zhenren immediately agreed. He was looking forward to the next life of service.
Just like that, a day and a night passed.
In the early morning.
Gu An turned into a little man in white and appeared on Xuanmiao Zhenren's shoulder.
Xuanmiao Zhenren was meditating on the steps in front of the Taoist temple, practicing with his eyes closed.
Gu An looked at the Taoist temple he built. It was pretty good. It couldn't be said to be magnificent, but it wasn't stingy either.
The courtyard wall was made of rocks, and the Taoist temple was the same. The beams and pillars were mahogany, and the eaves were paved with red bricks. In the woods on the hillside, it was looming. The big cauldron in the courtyard was burning incense and candles, and the green smoke was curling, which had the atmosphere of a fairyland.
Overall, Xuanmiao Zhenren spent a lot of effort and succeeded in pleasing him.
Gu An said, "The words on this plaque are not good. Mountain God Temple is too general. There may be more than one mountain god in this world."
Xuan Miao Zhenren suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head subconsciously. Seeing the mountain god standing on his shoulder, his body suddenly stiffened and he dared not move.
He asked carefully, "May I ask what the name of your immortal god is..."
"I haven't thought of it yet."
Gu An jumped off Xuan Miao Zhenren's shoulder and walked into the courtyard.
Xuan Miao Zhenren quickly got up and followed, curiously asking, "What do you mean by not thinking of it? Don't you have a group of immortal gods behind you, just like the heaven in the Investiture of the Gods?"
"Investiture of the Gods, what is that?"
Xuan Miao Zhenren roughly recounted the Investiture of the Gods. When he mentioned this book, his tone was full of respect.
After listening to this, Gu An sneered: "How dare a mortal speculate about immortals? I don't know if there is a heaven in the world, but I have never seen other immortals since I was born."
"Then what about you..."
"You want to ask, why do I dare to call myself a mountain god?"
"No, no, that's not what I mean..."
"Immortals are not only status, but also a certain realm. Practice well, maybe one day you can reach it."
Gu An's words made Xuanmiao Zhenren's heart suddenly hot.
He also wanted to be as powerful as the mountain god!
Seeing that the mountain god was in a good mood, he began to ask about the medicine field.
"Whatever you plant, I will pick it and send these flowers and plants to the afterlife." Gu An answered casually, and Xuanmiao Zhenren was in awe.
He had never heard that flowers and plants also needed to be reborn.
The mind of the mountain god was indeed beyond his imagination.
After Gu An explained some things to Xuanmiao Zhenren, he disappeared out of thin air. He said that he was going to sleep in the field, and don't disturb him if there was nothing to do.
Sleeping in the field?
Xuanmiao Zhenren has gained a new understanding.
…
Two months after the fall of the Epiphyllum Sect, the great monks of Taixuan Sect and their disciples have returned one after another. Their return has also brought back many inside stories, making the spirit of the mountain god spread again in Taixuan Sect.
Lu Lingjun has also returned.
She was included in the Elders' Hall by Lv Baitian, and her status has leaped. Lv Baitian originally wanted to transfer her out of the Third Medicine Valley, but this time she refused.
"I will practice in the Third Medicine Valley in the future and continue to protect you, but don't think of sending me. If you can pay tribute to some herbs on weekdays, I can do something for you."
In the attic, Lu Lingjun sat opposite Gu An and said leisurely.
This attitude...
Really pretending!
Gu An smiled and said, "It's not impossible to give you herbs. In fact, you can go buy seeds and I will help you plant them. When the time comes, all the yields will belong to you. It's my job. I can rest assured that you will be in charge of the Third Medicine Valley."
Lu Lingjun thought it made sense and said, "Yes, I will go to the main city of the sect in two days. The seeds there are of higher quality."
Then, she began to talk about the previous battle in Wanji Forest. She described the battle from her own experience, which was even more tragic.
She has great respect for the mountain god. As an ascender, the immortal god means more to her.
Gu An was secretly happy when he heard her talk about her awe of the mountain god.
Gu An did not reveal the truth and exclaimed from time to time.
After she finished speaking, Gu An sighed: "The realm of the mountain god is really unimaginable. I wonder if a mortal can reach such a realm in his lifetime."
Lu Lingjun said seriously: "Maybe it's difficult, but since you have embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, you must work towards this goal and have no regrets even if you die."
Gu An saw that her lifespan had reached the maximum lifespan, which was 3,700 years. She still had nearly 1,700 years. He didn't know if she could change her fate and reach the realm of Nirvana in the remaining years.
He had no intention of imparting the Xiantian Samsara Technique for the time being, as his relationship with Lu Lingjun was not that good yet.
Let's see how she performs next.
If it makes him happy, he can help.
If this guy treats him badly, forget it.
Half an hour later, Lu Lingjun got up and left. Before leaving, she reminded him, "Don't read those crappy books. Write another Conferred Gods Romance when you have time. I want to see what kind of stories those people have after they became gods."
Crappy books?
You don't understand at all!
Gu An glared at Lu Lingjun's back, and only after she closed the door did he take out the Taixuan Secret Biography.
This was the last volume of the Taixuan Secret Biography, and after reading it, he was ready to burn it.
He opened the first page and began to appreciate it.
Huh?
Shen Zhen's writing style has changed. This last volume is actually melancholy, not as bold as before.
Okay, I like it.
As a melancholy person, Gu An decided not to burn the Taixuan Secret Biography.
Watching the male protagonist and his confidante, their emotions burst out and they told each other their bitterness at the moment of farewell, the emotional conflicts that had been laid for so many years were finally released.
Next is the illustration that Gu An usually disdains the most.
He has to take a serious look to see if Shen Zhen's painting skills are flawed.
...
With the arrival of the new year, after Gu An participated in the Spring Festival in the Third Medicine Valley and Xuan Valley in turn, he came to the Nianchu Cave in Tianhuang Mountain in the second half of the night.
He brought fine wine and food to Tian Yaoer and prepared to take her to celebrate the festival together.
In addition to taking care of herbs, Tian Yaoer spent the rest of her time practicing. Her life was quite boring, so Gu An would give her all kinds of food every time he came.
This was Tian Yaoer's first time drinking.
She held the jar and choked on the first sip.
This is a spiritual wine. Even a Jindan cultivator will get drunk if he drinks too much.
Although he is drunk, this wine can increase his cultivation and can be regarded as a good medicine for cultivation.
Tian Yaoer's pretty face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Gu An reminded her, "Don't worry if you can't drink it. Save it for later. You'll get used to it after drinking too much."
A monster blushes when drinking?
This was beyond Gu An's expectation.
Tian Yaoer shook her head and said, "I can drink it, why can't I drink it?"
She saw Gu An finish a bowl of spiritual wine, so she naturally refused to admit defeat.
Moreover, although she felt hot all over after drinking this wine, she felt quite comfortable and wanted to drink more.
Gu An was about to speak, but suddenly realized something. He stood up and said, "You eat some meat first, I'll go out for a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.
Tian Yaoer picked up the wine jar again, licked her lips, and took another sip. This time, she continued to drink despite the choking feeling.
...
Under the dark night, the mountains were continuous, and there was a ridge that kept rising and falling. Looking closely, it turned out to be a giant snake with two feet and a human face.
It was Chen She who had appeared in Wanji Forest before.
Chen She was covered in blood, his breath was weak, and his breathing sounded like thunder. The surrounding demon fog was swirling, and there were many ghosts approaching.
Chen She's lively eyes were very tired and could close at any time.
"Such a powerful blood, an ancient relic."
A cold laugh came, and Chen She opened his eyes in shock. He saw a figure appearing above the demon fog in the distance. It was an old woman in a black robe, with two horns on her head and a pair of wings behind her. There were also black fine hairs on her cheeks, making her look even more terrifying.
Tian Huang Yao Mu looked down at Chen She, her eyes full of greed.
Chen She moved slightly, but was unable to get up.
Tian Huang Yao Mu began to approach Chen She, and a rolling demonic energy came out of her body, as if two black dragons were encircling Chen She's huge body.
"If you don't want to die, turn around and leave."
A voice came from the direction of Chen She. Tian Huang Yao Mu stopped and squinted to see a masked man in white standing on Chen She's forehead.
Tian Huang Yao Mu sneered: "What? Who are you? Don't you know who I am?"
Gu An heard it and was about to answer, but felt it was troublesome.
He immediately waved his sleeves, and his terrifying magic power rushed towards Tian Huang Yao Mu like the wind, instantly turning her into ashes.
[You successfully seized the 203-year life of Tian Huang Yao Mu (ninth level of the fusion realm)]
The demon king that Tian Yao Er feared the most died at Gu An's hands, without any resistance.
Chen She opened his eyes with difficulty, and he spoke in human language: "You... Are you a mountain god..."
Its voice was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman, and it was weak.
That day in the battle of the Epiphyllum Sect, it was injured and fell to the ground, and saw the wooden man.
The image of the wooden man is very similar to Gu An now.
Gu An said, "Since you saved the people, I will save your life."
He took out the bottles of pills that had been refined long ago and poured them into Chen She's mouth.
After Chen She was seriously injured, he was poisoned by the mother tree of the Epiphyllum, which could only be cured by the Epiphyllum Pill made from the Epiphyllum.
"Mountain God...someone...inherited the power of the Epiphyllum Cult..." Chen She said with difficulty, and its snake eyes burst into a strange light, revealing a human figure.
Gu An looked at it carefully, and the eyes under the mask became strange.
Why is it him?
This book does not ascend to a certain realm. The world where the protagonist lives is very big, and the ascension is also from the lower world to this world~~
