Chapter 843: Chapter 835: The Creation of Heaven and Earth

Can’t escape this calamity!

Ji Xiaoyu was shocked by Gu An’s words. According to her deductions, while Son of Heaven Jie Yan would indeed cause great trouble for the Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance, it shouldn’t be enough to shake its foundations.

She rarely intervened in the Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance’s affairs. If she needed to act, it would certainly be at a time of life and death for the alliance.

For a moment, countless speculations filled her mind.

Could it be that Son of Heaven Jie Yan has enlisted other Immortal Gods?

No matter how strong Son of Heaven Jie Yan is, he’s still a reincarnated being, having a mortal body like them. The reason he can stand against the Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance is mainly due to wielding that Divine Sword.

Gu An continued to savor the wine, enjoying the fine food and drink Ji Xiaoyu had prepared for him.

After the voice of Son of Heaven Jie Yan fell silent, a surge of powerful auras rose outside the hall. No voices echoed into the palace, yet the great battle had already erupted. Gu An and Ji Xiaoyu began to watch the unfolding conflict.

Ji Xiaoyu was already an Innate Golden Immortal, but her true cultivation level was a secret, unknown within the Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance.

From her perspective, Son of Heaven Jie Yan could not possibly win. The Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance currently had several Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortals stationed, with Profound Yuan Free Immortals numbering over a hundred. There was no fear of the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven’s foundation and forces were far inferior to the Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance; it was just that the Son of Heaven himself was formidable.

With the Divine Sword in his hand, the current Son of Heaven Jie Yan could fight several Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortals without defeat, but that was as far as he could go.

“Where exactly is the problem?”

Ji Xiaoyu thought to herself, her gaze subconsciously turning to Gu An.

She knew that if Gu An spoke such words, he certainly wasn’t trying to scare her.

Seeing that Gu An had no intention of elaborating further, Ji Xiaoyu chose not to ask more, trusting that an answer would soon present itself.

After a while, Gu An asked, “You haven’t answered me yet, how do you view Guan Tianyu? What is his origin?”

Gu An looked at her, smiling, “Aren’t there already many legends explaining it?”

“Could he just be the Child of Heaven and Earth?”

“The creations of Heaven and Earth are far beyond your imagination. When cultivators grasp the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, they start to underestimate Heaven and Earth. You think Heaven and Earth can’t have such marvelous creations, so you suspect Guan Tianyu must have a grander origin, isn’t that right?”

Gu An’s words led Ji Xiaoyu into deep thought, realizing she indeed harbored such a mindset.

In her view, the Celestial Spirit Great World shouldn’t harbor such talent. Guan Tianyu’s emergence must have been orchestrated by a more powerful entity.

Gu An continued, “With three thousand Great Dao and infinite creations, all beings possess a sense of pride, thinking they can master everything and that they are unique, thus neglecting the Heaven and Earth that bore them.”

“If beings are indeed the most wondrous of creations, then the Heaven and Earth nurturing them must operate on an even higher level.”

He spoke of his understanding. Though Heaven and Earth seem fragile, their creations are supreme. Even if a world turns to ashes, its creative force remains and will give birth to new worlds, though mortal spirits can’t perceive this creation.

Only a Dao Extreme Daluo Immortal can barely glimpse this omnipresent, immense creation imperceptible to mortal spirits.

And surpassing a Daluo Immortal, one can further perceive the creation of Heaven and Earth.

Though the Celestial Spirit Great World is weak, it remains a Great Thousand World that has existed for countless years. The creation it secretly harbors is beyond the imagination of all living beings, and the impending crisis from Son of Heaven Jie Yan’s arrival has prompted it to bring about Guan Tianyu.

Though Guan Tianyu is born of the Human Race, the mystic destiny of Heaven and Earth continually transforms him.

To put it bluntly, unless a power surpassing the Celestial Spirit Great World emerges, no one can slay Guan Tianyu within this world, not even if he wished to die.

“The creation of Heaven and Earth…”

Ji Xiaoyu was lost in contemplation; it seemed she had grasped something, quickly transitioning to a state of Enlightenment, forgetting her own calamity.

She could enter this state so swiftly not due to exceptional comprehension but because Gu An enveloped her with his Dao Intent, aiding her Enlightenment.

Gu An watched Ji Xiaoyu with expectant eyes.

He had many old friends, and while he cherished them all emotionally, in terms of potential, only Ji Xiaoyu could surpass and carve her own path, possibly even beyond what he foresaw.

Moreover, Ji Xiaoyu held a competitive spirit towards him, desiring to surpass him, thus he eagerly anticipated her growth.

He suddenly understood the Celestial Emperor.

The Celestial Emperor allowed Immortal Gods to act wantonly, allowed the Dark Heavenly Court to grow, perhaps genuinely hoping for someone to challenge him.

Upon reconsideration, Gu An felt he had misunderstood.

How could he empathize with the Celestial Emperor!

He mustn’t adopt such a mindset; he can look forward to others growing stronger, but mustn’t consider himself the strongest.

While Ji Xiaoyu was in Enlightenment, Gu An repeatedly instilled a notion in himself.

He is not yet the strongest!

There are stronger beings within the Heavenly Dao!

He wasn’t thinking of the Celestial Emperor, but of an existence yet to appear.

Much time passed.

Ji Xiaoyu suddenly awoke, opening her eyes to find the celestial vault outside the hall had dimmed.

She turned her head to see Gu An had already risen, standing before a stone pillar, reading the inscriptions upon it.

“I’m sorry, I just…”

Ji Xiaoyu began, but her words trailed off as she became captivated by Gu An’s silhouette.

With his back to her and head raised, Gu An emanated an inexplicable allure, a longing for the Great Dao.

Hearing her, Gu An turned to her with a smile, “So, what did you comprehend earlier?”

“I grasped some truths about the Dao of Heaven and Earth, thank you.” Ji Xiaoyu earnestly replied.

“Why thank me? I did nothing.”

“I understand.”

Ji Xiaoyu was well aware of her own comprehension. After countless years of meditation, such an opportunity for Enlightenment was rare. It wasn’t a coincidence that Gu An’s presence came with insights, clearly indicating his guidance.

Just as Gu An was about to speak, a gust of wind from outside swept in, billowing his black robe.

Sitting at the table, Ji Xiaoyu narrowed her eyes, sensing a formidable aura approaching.

She wasn’t sure how long her Enlightenment had lasted, but awakening to Son of Heaven Jie Yan’s aggressive arrival shook her, while also instilling admiration for Gu An.

He had truly anticipated it.

Soon, a beam of silver light shot into the hall, transforming into a human figure that landed and took three steps forward before stopping.

It was indeed Son of Heaven Jie Yan, disheveled, wielding a silver Divine Sword. His robes were bloodstained, clearly just emerging from a brutal battle.

Son of Heaven Jie Yan glanced at Ji Xiaoyu, then at the Divine Sword in his hand, which was vibrating.

“Unexpectedly drawn to this woman, could she harbor some powerful Great Dao creation?”

Son of Heaven Jie Yan was silently surprised, raising his eyes to Ji Xiaoyu, he asked, “Which Alliance Hierarch of the Heavenly Spirit Dao Alliance are you?”

Following his gaze to Gu An, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Gu An stood beside the stone pillar, observing him, yet Son of Heaven Jie Yan couldn’t discern Gu An’s cultivation level.
