Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses-Chapter 754 - 746: Gu Xuan, Profound Abyss, Taihao

Chapter 754 -746: Gu Xuan, Profound Abyss, Taihao

Profound Abyss Fruit?

How did I get reincarnated as a fruit?

Gu An looked at the prompt before him, feeling that he would spend the next several thousand years stuck on a tree, without any choice in the matter.

This is quite novel!

Gu An continued to read on, with prompts continuously appearing. As the Profound Abyss Fruit, he encountered various passersby in the ensuing years.

There were Ghost Immortals, demons, as well as humans. Some just passed by, while others, like that Ghost Immortal, lingered.

But…

The wait lasted longer than he anticipated.

Over ten thousand years passed, and he was still a Profound Abyss Fruit.

[At the age of 12,732, you comprehended nature’s essence and grasped the Path of Yin and Yang, enhancing your Dao Practice.]

[At the age of 12,803, a torrential rain fell under the celestial vault. Never having felt rain before, you reveled in the downpour, refining your physical body.]

[At the age of 13,146, swaying in the wind, you detached from the vine and fell to the ground. With nature’s spiritual energy converging around you, you began Transformation. Please choose your gender.]

The prompt paused here, and Gu An furrowed his brow. Do I need to choose?

Male!

Gu An made his decision. Over the past tens of thousands of years, as a transformed fruit, he had observed the difference between the sexes, likely contemplating this for years.

After choosing, his Reincarnation Body gestated for a full hundred years before the Transformation succeeded, and he comprehended his Innate Divine Ability, the Profound Abyss Yin-Yang Shield!

He also took a branch from the Profound Abyss Ancient Tree, transforming it into a long staff, and set off to explore Other Shore Heaven.

[At the age of 13,307, you encountered a lonely wild ghost who claimed to be chased by the Nine Yin Divine Mansion and advised you to change your route to avoid them. Do you choose to evade the Nine Yin Divine Mansion?]

Yes!

In a previous life as the Black Profound Emperor, Gu An had experienced the power of the Nine Yin Divine Mansion. Most of their Ghost Immortals surpassed the Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal Realm.

With Gu An’s current Dao Practice, he couldn’t grasp the entirety of the Underworld but could sense the presence of Daluo Immortals within the Nine Yin Divine Mansion.

The barriers of the Path of Yin and Yang were truly formidable, preventing the Celestial Dao Destiny from fully encompassing the Underworld.

A newly transformed Profound Abyss Fruit would be no match for the Nine Yin Divine Mansion.

[You chose to trust the wild ghost’s advice. After a long conversation, you decided to visit Other Shore City as mentioned. The wild ghost wanted to accompany you. Do you agree?]

No!

[You rejected its request, but it persisted, and you couldn’t drive it away. You learned its name, it called itself Ghost Sanlang. After some conflict, you decided to name yourself Gu Xuan You since you were born from the Profound Abyss Ancient Tree. ]

[At the age of 13,315, you entered Other Shore City with Ghost Sanlang. In the same year, you met a cultivator named Zhu Tian Daoist, who claimed to be from Other Shore Heaven. He saw through your essence as a Profound Abyss Fruit and wanted to bring you to Other Shore Heaven for cultivation. Do you agree?]

Yes!

Gu An thought that someone who could discern his essence would not be someone he could resist. If they bore ill intentions, refusing would only cause trouble.

Besides, Gu Xuan You needed Daoist Technique to truly start Immortal Cultivation.

Having lived for over ten thousand years, Gu Xuan You had not yet seized any lifespan. Other Shore Heaven appeared peaceful, indicating a strong foundation.

However, in Gu An’s time, there was no power named Other Shore Heaven. Even observing the Underworld now, he couldn’t see Other Shore Heaven.

This suggests Other Shore Heaven might perish.

That would be good. After Gu Xuan You’s cultivation succeeds and he departs, if Other Shore Heaven then perishes, many causes and effects could be hidden.

Of course, the demise of Other Shore Heaven might relate to Gu Xuan You. Time would tell.

[You accepted Zhu Tian Daoist’s invitation and followed him to Other Shore Heaven with Ghost Sanlang. Along the way, you gained much knowledge and looked forward to your new life. Upon entering the Qi Fortune Dojo in Other Shore Heaven, Zhu Tian Daoist took you to meet the Other Shore Emperor. Apparently, upon your birth, the Other Shore Emperor foresaw your connection and decided to personally take you as a disciple.]

[At the age of 13,316, the Other Shore Emperor taught you the Other Shore Heavenly God Skill, saying it was the Daoist Technique most suited for you.]

The subsequent prompts were all about cultivation. Not only Gu Xuan You but also Ghost Sanlang was cultivating. The Other Shore Emperor also taught it a Divine Skill, making it swear eternal servitude to Gu Xuan You.

Gu An felt a sense of gratitude; his Reincarnation Body always found good mentors. For now, the Other Shore Emperor seemed sincere. If he wanted the Profound Abyss Fruit, there was no need for such elaborate effort.

This cultivation lasted for one hundred thousand years. After a hundred thousand years, Gu Xuan You had reached the Profound Yuan Free Immortal Realm.

That year, the Other Shore Emperor sent Gu Xuan You to train at the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, accompanied by other disciples from Other Shore Heaven. freewёbnoνel.com

Other Shore Heaven and Nine Yin Divine Mansion were neighboring Underworld Dao Courts with a cordial relationship, often exchanging disciples to foster communication.

When they arrived at the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, no mishaps occurred, leaving Gu An without choices to make.

After entering the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, Gu Xuan You stayed for several years before heading to the Netherworld alone for training.

Shortly after arriving at the Netherworld, he befriended a Fellow Daoist named Taihao.

The two bonded instantly, and Taihao invited Gu Xuan You to explore the Netherworld for treasures, claiming there was an ancient treasure left by a great power.

Gu An finally faced a choice.

What treasure? The Netherworld was far from safe. From his current vantage, Gu An could see terrible Power of Reincarnation in its depths, which could affect even the Miao Zhen Daluo Immortal if they lingered.

He declined Taihao’s invitation.

[You rejected Taihao’s invitation. Taihao wasn’t angry, telling you to wait by the river before diving into the Netherworld. This filled you with admiration for him. Taihao’s bold spirit captivated you, making you yearn to be like him. You began meditating by the Netherworld, commencing cultivation.]

[At the age of 116,542, you were suddenly attacked while cultivating. The assailants were two cultivators from the Nine Yin Divine Mansion who coveted your Ghost Slave, Ghost Sanlang. Forced to retaliate, after a strenuous battle, you narrowly killed the two Nine Yin Divine Mansion disciples. You discovered you could seize lifespan, and after some research, used it to elevate the Other Shore Heavenly God Skill, achieving a breakthrough in mastery, subtly changing your mindset.]

[At the age of 116,552, three more disciples from the Nine Yin Divine Mansion arrived, questioning whether you killed their two junior disciples. You chose to strike first, eliminating them.]
