Chapter 469 Facing the Way of Heaven
After Gu An finished speaking, his eyes began to scan Yang Jian and Zhang Xianwang, causing the atmosphere in the room to drop to freezing point.
Zhen Qin, who had just sat down, was also stunned and did not dare to breathe.
Now, she is truly convinced that Master is Fudao Sword Master. This aura is so scary!
It was also the first time that Yang Jian felt such an aura from his master. Even though he had recovered his past life memories and had rich experiences, he still felt intimidated by Gu An's aura, and even felt that the magic power in his body had solidified.
Zhang Xianwang's previous nervousness came back to his heart, and his whole body froze.
Ye Lan was not nervous, she felt from the bottom of her heart that Gu An would never hurt her.
"Former...fellow Taoist, tell me."
Faced with Gu An's pressure, Zhang Xianwang gritted his teeth and asked.
Gu An replied expressionlessly: "I will not interfere in the general struggle in the world, but don't provoke me, and don't affect mortals. The difference between immortals and mortals should not be due to status, but due to the difference in strength. Keep a safe distance.”
Zhang Xianwang and Yang Jian nodded immediately after hearing this.
Gu An then smiled, and the terrifying coercion disappeared, leaving Yang Jian, Zhang Xianwang, and Zhen Qin in a daze.
"Okay, I've already said what you want to ask. It's time to talk about something happy. How have you been doing these past years? Jian'er, I'll tell you first."
Gu An looked at Yang Jian and asked with a smile. Yang Jian came back to his senses and immediately began to talk about his experiences over the years, even if Zhang Xianwang was beside him, he did not shy away from it.
Zhang Xianwang was very interested in his experience.
Ye Lan and Zhen Qin became interested when they heard that Yang Jian had entered reincarnation.
Different from Gu An and the other three, they are in the realm of mortal spirits. Even if they are in power in the branch sect, looking at the entire world of immortal cultivation, they still belong to the bottom and have no access to reincarnation at all.
They have been to the human world and saved wild ghosts, but they cannot spy on how ghosts reincarnate.
Gu An also listened carefully and asked for details from time to time. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
At the same time, the visions outside the sky began to slow down, and the creatures in the realm of annihilation were uneasy. They had stopped before, but soon the spiritual energy of the avenue began to riot again, so they were not sure that this would be the last calm.
Time passes quickly.
Until dusk, Gu An asked An Xin to settle down Zhen Qin, Yang Jian, and Zhang Xianwang, while he was alone with Ye Lan.
Gu An looked at Ye Lan and asked, "You can ask if you want."
He had previously concealed his identity as Fudao Sword Master. He could hear Ye Lan's thoughts, so he told her not to hold it back.
Ye Lan did have a lot to ask, and it was obvious that Gu An left her alone and was willing to explain, and all her inner complaints disappeared.
Is it important who Gu An is?
The important thing should be that Gu An was protecting her no matter who he was.
Furthermore, looking at the movement outside, Ye Lan knew that the identity of Fudao Sword Master really had to be hidden.
Ye Lan smiled sweetly and said, "How does it feel to be sought after by others?"
When Gu An heard her asking this, he knew that she had no grudge in her heart.
Junior sister is always so sensible.
Gu An shook his head and smiled: "It's all just a false name. In this world, names may exist longer than people, but they can't compete with the passage of time."
"That's for ordinary people. If my senior brother is so powerful, he will definitely be praised by the world." Ye Lan said seriously.
Throughout history, how many people can save the world?
Anyway, she has never heard of anyone who is more powerful and has greater achievements than her senior brother.
Gu An smiled helplessly, then picked up the teapot and poured tea for Ye Lan.
Ye Lan understood something from his expression. She thought of Gu An's previous conversation with the God Emperor of Annihilation, and she couldn't help but ask: "Is it really possible for a world like ours to be destroyed?"
Gu An nodded and said: "It was destroyed once a long time ago. The current big world is just a fragment of the past, and there are many big worlds outside the sky. Maybe there is more than one universe outside the sky. Maybe there are many, many universes. Even though It’s me, still very small.”
After hearing this, Ye Lan was fascinated and said sincerely: "There are people outside the world, and there are people outside the world. I really want to see the world, but unfortunately, I don't have the qualifications."
Gu An looked at her and said, "If you want to go, I can take you there."
Ye Lan was a little moved, but she still shook her head and said: "Forget it, I'm afraid it will make me even more unwilling after seeing it."
She then looked at Gu An and asked steadily: "Senior brother, is reincarnation really possible? Will I still be me in the next life?"
After hearing about Yang Jian's experience, she became interested in reincarnation.
Moreover, the innate reincarnation skill can transcend reincarnation and accumulate cultivation. She didn't believe it before, but now she thinks that dying first is the beginning of the innate reincarnation skill.
Gu An heard her voice and replied: "Of course there is. The road to immortality is to explore the avenue. Reincarnation is also a avenue. If you can recover your memory in the next life, you will still be who you are now. But Even if the memory is not restored, you are still you, and your soul has not changed. Reincarnation can erase the memory, but it cannot change your nature, nor can it change the desire bursting from your heart. "
He has always felt that nature is predetermined, but acquired experiences will suppress nature, shape principles, and form new people.
Just like him in his previous life, he understood many truths but had difficulty controlling his own will and inner desires.
Even now, when he is already very strong, he still has many thoughts in his mind, which even conflict with his cognitive path.
Cultivating the Tao means cultivating the mind, and only by cultivating the mind can you control your nature.
Ye Lan smiled and said, "I also want to reincarnate. I wonder if my senior brother will look for me in the next life."
Now, she will no longer doubt Gu An's ability. She believes that reincarnation is just a common thing in Gu An's eyes.
Gu An raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course I will look for you. I will tie you to my side and trap you for life after life. Are you afraid?"
"That's great. I'm just afraid that you don't want me anymore." Ye Lan pretended to be pitiful.
Gu An smiled and said, "I'm afraid that you will rebel in the next life. Don't treat me as an enemy then."
Ye Lan looked at Gu An steadily and said, "It's impossible. Whether I have memories or not, as long as I see you, I will completely trust you. Although I have never entered reincarnation, I firmly believe in this."
Gu An looked at her and listened to her voice. The room became quiet.
"Senior brother, you are alone and watch the old people reincarnate. How does it feel?" Ye Lan continued to ask.
She believed that Gu An had lived for countless years, and she couldn't even tell whether she had a close relationship with Gu An in her previous life, so Gu An took care of her so much.
Gu An looked out the window and said, "Look at the leaves on the tree falling and new buds growing. How do you feel?"
Ye Lan turned her head and looked out the window, her thoughts drifting away.
Gu An's Taoism enveloped her, helping her to understand the nature of heaven and earth.
The two looked out the window and lost themselves together.
Everything in the past appeared in front of Gu An's eyes. When he had nothing to do, he would recall the past, including his experience on Earth in his previous life. He must always remember where he came from and why he went to cultivate immortality.
As Gu An's thoughts drifted away, a breeze blew outside the window, blowing the old tree next to the attic. Just as he said, some leaves were blown off.
The leaf seemed not to want to fall to the ground, swaying and struggling in the wind, rising with the wind, and falling with the wind, up and down.
It flew across the red sky and came to a blue sky dotted with white clouds. It slowly fell and landed on Gu An's palm.
This fall was several hundred years.
Gu An, dressed in white, stood in front of a tombstone. He lowered his eyes to look at the leaves in his hand with deep eyes.
A hand stretched out from the side, trying to grab the leaves in his palm, but it passed through his palm.
"Is this the feeling after death? It's quite strange."
Ye Lan's soul stood beside Gu An and said excitedly.
Gu An glanced at her and said helplessly: "You are about to reincarnate, and you are still so happy?"
Ye Lan said proudly: "Of course I am happy. I want to start my life again, and I have no regrets in these four hundred years."
It has been four hundred and twenty years since Gu An broke through the Luotian Zizai Fairyland. Since the conversation four hundred years ago, Ye Lan has been eager to reincarnate as soon as possible. She feels that there is no hope of pursuing the Tao in this life.
But Gu An asked her to wait. Within 420 years, she resigned from the position of branch elder and stayed in the Third Medicine Valley to practice under Gu An's guidance.
In Gu An's words, accumulating insights into the rules of heaven and earth before reincarnation will make it easier to practice in the next life.
Gu An smiled when he heard her words. He threw the leaves in his hand and raised his hand to touch Ye Lan's face.
Ye Lan did not dodge, but when Gu An's hand touched her face, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, her eyes full of surprise, but then she understood.
Senior brother is so powerful, it is not difficult to cross the gap between yin and yang.
Gu An touched her face and thought of the girl who always pestered him back then.
Unknowingly, she has been with him for more than 1,500 years.
Gu An smiled and said, "Are you ready?"
Ye Lan nodded and took a deep breath.
Gu An withdrew his hand, then waved his sleeves, and an unstoppable force rolled up Ye Lan's soul and made her fly to the sky.
Ye Lan watched Gu An on the ground getting farther and farther away from her. Her excitement faded, replaced by panic about the unknown.
Will the senior brother not be able to find her or forget her in the next life?
Ye Lan felt very uncomfortable. She realized that no matter how open-minded she was or how well prepared she was, the feeling of experiencing life and death in person was completely different.
"Don't worry, even if this world is destroyed, I'm still here. As long as I'm still here, no matter how the world changes, as long as you are willing to stay with me, I will come to find you."
Gu An's gentle voice came into Ye Lan's ears, which calmed her heart.
Yes, if the senior brother wanted to abandon her, he could have given up on her long ago. What's the point of lying to her?
She opened her mouth and wanted to speak to Gu An, but found that she couldn't say anything.
Gu An looked at Ye Lan in the air and could hear her voice. He didn't continue to speak, and his eyes looked out of the sky.
That light layer symbolizing the power of heaven!
He was curious about whether reincarnation had anything to do with heaven?
Who is so high above that he determines the fate of everything?
He thought of the group of immortals and gods he would face in the end. Perhaps it was such a group of extraordinary immortals and gods who controlled everything behind the Heavenly Dao.
One day, he would face these beings and the Heavenly Dao!
