Chapter 791: Chapter 783 Eternal Dao Extreme
As Lu Qiuxian’s voice fell, a figure slowly emerged from the mist of the Great Dao ahead. This figure was extremely tall and imposing, towering over Lu Qiuxian like a mountain. From its shape, it seemed to be draped in a large robe, the embroidered robe fluttering like blazing flames.
“Lu Qiuxian, your will has already become an obsession that limits you.”
A voice echoed from the mist of the Great Dao, loud and reverberating without end.
Lu Qiuxian looked at the figure and asked, “What? Joining the Eternal Dao Extreme will rid me of this obsession?”
“The Eternal Dao Extreme is the future, the belonging of the Great Dao. It’s your only path. If you refuse to submit, how will you find your reincarnated father while you stay in the River of Destiny?”
Upon hearing this, a cold gleam flashed in Lu Qiuxian’s eyes.
At this moment, the majestic figure stepped out from the mist of the Great Dao. It was a burly man dressed in a dark red robe, his black hair flowing freely, his face stern, and his gaze oppressive. Standing at the edge of the Great Dao mist, he resembled an embodiment of darkness, oppressive and terrifying.
Facing his gaze, Lu Qiuxian’s expression did not change. He slowly stood up, and a powerful aura erupted from within him.
“Emperor Jiuyin, let me see if you can escape from my grasp again!”
As soon as Lu Qiuxian spoke, thousands of sword qi burst forth, dispersing the surrounding mist of the Great Dao. However, a protective shield appeared around Emperor Jiuyin, blocking the sword qi attacking from all directions, and the residual sword qi in the air seemed to shatter the space around him.
Seeing Emperor Jiuyin easily deflect his attack, a change flickered in Lu Qiuxian’s eyes.
He could sense that Emperor Jiuyin had already transformed, making him feel unfathomable.
It seems a fierce battle awaits!
…
Fifty thousand years had passed in the Human World since the departure of Xuanyuan Human Venerable and Elder Cixuan.
The number of Free Immortals in the Celestial Spirit Great World increased by nearly thirty percent, with more Daoist Zang Zizai Immortals and Profound Yuan Free Immortals. While no new Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortals had been born, it was close.
On this day…
On a mountaintop in the Daoist Field of the Beginningless, Gu An stood at the peak, gazing into Outer Heaven.
He witnessed a world-shattering battle in the River of Destiny, where Lu Qiuxian and Emperor Jiuyin battled for days before Lu Qiuxian was captured by Emperor Jiuyin.
As Emperor Jiuyin left along the River of Destiny, Gu An saw a path he had never discovered before.
This path was magical, leading to the Three Thousand Great Dao River. It did not always exist, appearing intermittently and hard to capture.
Following this path to its end, Gu An’s vision was blocked by a layer of dense destiny, making him feel as if he was facing the Celestial Court.
Could such a powerful force really hide within the Great Dao?
From Gu An’s perspective of Dao Practice, the end of this path did not belong to Chaos or the Heavenly Dao but existed independently, extremely complex.
Just as Emperor Jiuyin was about to fly into the temporal brilliance at the end of the path, Gu An took a step, crossing countless universes and arriving behind Emperor Jiuyin along the River of Destiny.
Pa!
A hand landed on Emperor Jiuyin’s shoulder, forcing him to stop. His eyes widened as he instinctively turned to see Gu An from the corner of his eye.
Emperor Jiuyin’s figure was ten thousand feet tall, but Gu An did not seem small behind him.
Gu An’s body shone with silver light, just like Lu Qiuxian. Even so close, Emperor Jiuyin could not clearly see his true form.
“Who are you?”
Emperor Jiuyin asked in a deep voice. However, Gu An did not answer him. An extremely terrifying divine sense burst into his mind, blanking his consciousness and scattering his gaze.
While performing a Soul Search, Gu An seized the White Jade Gourd from his hand.
The gourd contained many beings, with Lu Qiuxian just one of them, all of whom roamed the River of the Great Dao.
Suddenly…
Gu An’s divine sense encountered a powerful resistance, abruptly destroying Emperor Jiuyin’s soul and obliterating his life force, preventing Gu An from extracting his lifespan.
He withdrew his divine sense, watching Emperor Jiuyin turn to ashes before him.
He looked ahead at the temporal brilliance, feeling apprehensive.
The Eternal Dao Extreme is truly extraordinary!
At ten thousand feet tall, he appeared tiny before the temporal brilliance, like a grain of sand. He took a deep look ahead and then turned, stepping along the River of Destiny and disappearing within a few steps.
Not long after he left, the temporal brilliance began to shrink until it disappeared.
Gu An arrived at the place where Lu Qiuxian used to meditate and opened the White Jade Gourd, releasing Lu Qiuxian first.
A silver light flew out from the gourd’s mouth, landing in front of Gu An and manifesting into Lu Qiuxian’s figure.
Lu Qiuxian opened his eyes, stunned upon seeing Gu An.
He had never met Gu An, but for some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity.
He had once talked to Gu An while standing in the River of Destiny and during his time in the Celestial Spirit Great World. At that time, Gu An was still weak, merely piquing his curiosity.
Now, standing before Lu Qiuxian, Gu An’s true form was indiscernible to him, filling Lu Qiuxian with caution.
Gu An tossed the White Jade Gourd in his hand to Lu Qiuxian and said, “The Eternal Dao Extreme will come again. I can give you a chance to break free from the River of Destiny.”
He had long wanted to help Lu Qiuxian, once making the Primordial Crystal, symbolizing the Primordial Dao Emperor, appear before him. Unfortunately, Lu Qiuxian did not care at all.
Lu Qiuxian did not respond but instead asked, “Who are you, and why do you want to help me?”
“Is it important?”
“Of course, it’s important.”
Lu Qiuxian’s words rendered Gu An silent.
He had thought of saying he was a friend of Lu Han, but Lu Han died early, having no chance to meet such a powerful being. No matter how much a friendship might mature, such an answer was unconvincing.
“Breaking free from the River of Destiny may help you better pursue your obsession,” Gu An urged once more.
Lu Qiuxian shook his head and said, “Only by staying here can I fulfill my obsession.”
For some reason, the sense of familiarity in his heart grew stronger, causing ripples in his state of mind.
Even in defeat to Emperor Jiuyin, his heart had never been so tumultuous.
Gu An asked, “Reincarnation has order. Your father reincarnated a thousand, ten thousand times, walking his own path. Even if you find him, then what? Do you think you can restore the father-son relationship? Is he really still your father?”
Lu Qiuxian stared at Gu An and said, “I seek him, not just for the father-son bond, but for an answer.”
“What answer?”
“Perhaps my father has a more complex cause and effect background.”
Hearing this, Gu An looked at Lu Qiuxian with newfound respect.
Though the River of Destiny bound Lu Qiuxian’s fate, making it impossible for Gu An to hear his inner thoughts, this statement revealed that Lu Qiuxian’s wait for Lu Han was indeed not simply for the father-son bond.
However, regarding Lifespan Reincarnation, Gu An did not wish to disclose it to anyone, even his own reincarnation body’s son.
