Chapter 158 Different Paths, Fall
Late at night, under the Xuan Valley, in the Eight Scenery Cave.
Gu An sat under the Cang Teng tree reading a book, leaning against the main trunk, with two vines falling on his shoulders, gently rubbing.
He suddenly put down the book in his hand and sat up straight.
"What's wrong? Master, is the force too strong?" The Cang Teng tree made a weak female voice, pitiful.
Gu An replied: "No, I have something to do, I have to go."
The Cang Teng tree shook its trunk and said hurriedly: "Master, don't forget to bring some mutton!"
Gu An waved his hand and disappeared on the spot.
He stepped out of the Taixuan Gate and came to the top of a mountain. Near the end of autumn, the night wind was cold and blew his robes. He looked into the distance.
He felt that Haolong was suffering.
Although he and Haolong did not conclude a contract, they had established a subtle connection since Haolong was born, which was similar to the feeling when Xuanmiao Zhenren called him.
He extended his consciousness along this subtle feeling.
Soon, he locked onto a sect, and his consciousness passed through layers of restrictions and entered a small world similar to the Star Cave Heaven.
Huh?
Epiphyllum Ghost Mother, and Nine Nether Thirteen Li!
These guys are fighting with the great monks of the Ancient Hao Sect!
Gu An's consciousness locked onto Hao Long, and his face became strange.
The person fighting with Hao Long was Su Han!
Su Han's breath was actually close to the Nascent Soul Realm, but his breath was very chaotic, giving people a feeling that he might go crazy at any time.
Although Hao Long was lazy and didn't practice much, Su Han couldn't take it down for a while with his powerful bloodline talent.
The twenty-foot-long Hao Long twisted his dragon body, and from time to time, spurted out scorching flames from his mouth. Su Han's posture was like a ghost, evading nimbly, swinging his sword from time to time, and the sword energy slashed at Hao Long, causing its dragon blood to splash continuously.
Su Han held a cloth bag in his other hand, and was actually collecting Hao Long's blood.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu An decided to take action.
…
In the dim world, Hao Long fled in the mountains and fields, and Su Han, holding a bone sword, chased him closely.
“Damn… who are you? I will never forgive you in the future!”
Hao Long roared, shaking the mountains and forests, and his voice was still childish, like a boy.
Su Han’s cold voice came from behind: “Hate Heaven Sword, Su Han.”
Hao Long’s dragon eyes narrowed, and it was obvious that he had heard of the name of Hate Heaven Sword. Fear flashed in its eyes, and it fled faster, twisting its body like a loach.
Su Han jumped up, flew to a high altitude, swung his sword, and the sword energy was mighty, condensing into seven sword shadows, killing Hao Long. There were several ghosts at the end of each sword shadow, as if it was an evil ghost pushing a sword, which was terrifying under the night sky.
A dark purple demon shadow appeared out of thin air on the head of Hao Long’s dragon, raised his hand and pinched it, and dispersed Su Han’s sword energy in the air.
Su Han looked at him, his pupils dilated.
It was him!
Su Han could not forget the mysterious demon who killed his master Zhong Liang, so he recognized him at a glance.
Boom!
A terrifying divine consciousness instantly hit his mind, causing him to faint and fall into the forest.
Haolong was also hit by the divine consciousness and fell into a coma. His huge dragon body fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Gu An came to Su Han, who was lying on the grass, his life or death unknown.
At this time, the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother appeared in front of Su Han out of thin air, half-knelt down, and clasped her fists and said, "Please forgive me, Master, we didn't know that Haolong was related to you!"
The ghost energy on her body dissipated, revealing a pale female face. She looked at Gu An with a look of surprise.
Gu An asked indifferently, "Are you the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother?"
Although he had seen the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother, Fudao Jianzun had not seen her, so he had to ask one more question.
"I am the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother!" The Epiphyllum Ghost Mother replied respectfully.
Gu An then said, "The Ancient Hao Sect is also under my protection. Hao Long is the sacred beast of the Ancient Hao Sect. You are not allowed to rob."
In this way, he took action because of the Ancient Hao Sect, not for Hao Long.
When the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother heard this, she asked cautiously, "Why do you protect both sects?"
Gu An asked back, "The Epiphyllum Sect has been destroyed, why don't you return to the Nine Nether Road?"
The Epiphyllum Ghost Mother said helplessly, "We do want to go back, but the way back in the Nine Nether Road has been blocked by the cultivators of the Seven Star Spirit Realm, so we can only escape back."
Seven Star Spirit Realm?
Hearing this, Gu An was more certain that the Seven Star Spirit Realm was behind the demonic calamity.
"Is this kid your apprentice?" Gu An asked.
The Epiphyllum Ghost Mother looked at Gu An who was surrounded by demonic energy, hesitated for a moment, and said: "He is not my apprentice, but just one of my chess pieces. The demonic catastrophe is imminent, and the common people are about to face a catastrophe. I want to take this opportunity to train him and let him become the power for me to break through the Nine Nether Road."
Use Su Han to fight the Seven-Star Spiritual Realm cultivator in the Nine Nether Road?
Gu An couldn't help but feel pity for Su Han, but he had no intention of saving Su Han.
Su Han's desire for power has become an obsession. Even without the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother, he would still go astray. In Su Han's eyes, he did not do evil, he just tried to become stronger.
The reason why Gu An did not get rid of Su Han personally was because he had not heard of Su Han slaughtering mortals. There were indeed many people who died in Su Han's hands, but basically they had grievances with him. Most people wanted to get rid of the Hate Heaven Sword, but were killed by him.
The Hate Heaven Sword was Su Han's family swordsmanship, so he and Gu An were not really a master-disciple relationship. Gu An only provided him with some elixirs.
The past relationship between master and disciple has been severed, and Su Han's life and death has nothing to do with Gu An.
Gu An mainly wants to see Su Han's ending now.
Su Han, who has mastered the fate-defying magical skill, can swallow the spiritual power of other monks. To a certain extent, it is similar to Gu An's ability to steal life.
But Su Han took a completely different path from Gu An. Wherever he went and where he hit, his reputation spread throughout the world.
Epiphyllum Ghost Mother said that the effect of the fate-defying magic skill was exactly the same as the fate-defying magic skill mastered by Gu An, and there was no falsehood at all.
From the perspective of the Epiphyllum Demon Mother, she naturally didn’t know that Fudao Sword Master could reveal the truth because of his ability to defy fate. Perhaps she really wanted to establish Gu An as the leader of the Epiphyllum Sect.
"In the land where we come from, the Epiphyllum Sect has stood for tens of thousands of years. The aura there far exceeds that of the Nine Dynasties. Although the Epiphyllum Sect has been destroyed by the mountain gods, those who can be destroyed are the traitors who joined Jing Tuxian. I teach orthodoxy The disciples are still there. As long as you come back with me, the Epiphyllum Sect will be able to return to its former glory for at least a thousand years," the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother said seriously.
Gu An asked: "Just because I know the Tai Cang Jing Shen Sword? Are you not afraid that I will sacrifice you? Just like what the Epiphyllum Sect does."
"Huitai Cang Jing Shen Sword is just one of them. I have stayed in Tai Xuan Sect for many years and have learned about your deeds. The fact that you can carve the word "righteous way" on the Butian Platform is enough to show your character. If you are willing to take charge of the Epiphyllum Sect, you will definitely It can lead the Epiphyllum Sect to the right path. Although the Epiphyllum Sect is an evil thing, the original establishment of the Epiphyllum Sect was based on surrendering the Epiphyllum Tree and saving the common people, thus establishing the Taoist tradition. "
As the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother spoke, she raised her right hand, and a token appeared in her hand.
"This is the order of the leader of the Epiphyllum Sect. The dead leader has been looking for this token. I didn't know that this order is in my hand. This token can find all the members of the Epiphyllum Sect, and can also find the inheritance hidden by the authentic disciples. place."
Gu An made a move with his hand, and his spiritual consciousness rushed into the token.
He felt a powerful restriction that could not be broken except by those in the Mahayana realm. Of course, this restriction was only very strong for other people, and it was like a fake thing in front of him.
As his spiritual consciousness entered the order, he actually had the feeling that his spiritual consciousness was overlooking the earth. He saw a dark and chaotic world, with only landforms and no flowers and plants.
Through the scene inside the token, he could see the locations of other Epiphyllum Sect monks.
In addition, this token has other functions, and many restrictions make Gu An feel novel.
He withdrew his consciousness and said, "I will accept this token for the time being. If you see me in the future, you will be treated as if you saw me."
Hearing this, the Epiphyllum Ghost Mother was overjoyed and quickly thanked Gu An.
Gu An followed and disappeared.
Epiphyllum Ghost Mother immediately stood up and left with Su Han. As for Haolong in the distance, she did not dare to get involved again.
…
At the end of autumn, Xuan Valley.
Gu An watched the disciples sweep away the fallen leaves in various parks, while his consciousness fell in the distance. He was watching the decisive battle between Tai Cang Dynasty and Han Lu Dynasty.
Lu Xian and Wu Jue are also participating in the battle, each showing their talents. They are almost reaching the imperial city of Han Lu Dynasty.
Gu An's eyes mainly fell on Ye Yan. Ye Yan also came from Xuan Valley. Luo Hun and Zhou Tongyou taught him marksmanship and body tempering methods. After building a foundation, he went to join the army.
Decades later, Ye Yan has become a general of the Taicang Dynasty with outstanding military exploits. Although he has not yet formed a pill, his strength on the battlefield cannot be underestimated.
After all, those who join the army are mostly people who are under the realm of forming pills. Most of those who can form pills have transcended the shackles of the imperial dynasty and are pursuing their own path to immortality.
Gu An looked at the battlefield and felt that it felt like a romance novel.
Immortal cultivators from both sides charge into battle and fight with each other. The losing side will be attacked by the army and retreat steadily.
Just when he was watching with great interest, Zhen Qin's sword flew over and landed next to Gu An. She whispered: "Master, Senior Brother Su Han is wanted by Gu Haozong."
Gu An said casually: "I told you, he is not your senior brother."
Zhen Qin curled her lips and said: "Of course he is not my senior brother to the outside world, but after all, we grew up together, how could I completely let go of him."
"Then it's useless for you to tell me. What can I do?"
"Master! I'm so depressed, I want to talk to you!" Zhen Qin glared.
Gu An glanced at her and smiled: "Don't worry about him. He has been hunted for so many years, and he is still alive and well. Instead of worrying about him, you should worry about yourself. It feels like you are in greater danger than him. "
He was talking about the time when the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall were rescued by Master Xuanmiao. Although Zhen Qin did not reveal the existence of the mountain god, Ye Lan knew the process of her distress and told Gu An about it.
Zhen Qin was about to retort when she suddenly felt something and took out her disciple token from her storage bag.
Gu An did the same. He took out his Valley Master Token and penetrated it with his spiritual consciousness. Then, he heard Gu Zong's voice:
"The Supreme Elder Kusong was exploring the land of demons and unfortunately died. Three days later, all the disciples went to the subordinate city to worship their ancestors!"
