#365 - The Nine Heavens God has no Eye of Heavenly Punishment
Inside the Divine Monarch Hall, golden light enveloped each of the Divine Monarchs.
However, the golden light seemed to be frozen in place.
Except for the Hall Master, only the golden light of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch remained completely unaffected.
When he heard the other party's request, Gu An didn't feel much.
Just borrowing the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
It wasn't a big deal. Since the other party wanted to be seen, having one more person wouldn't hurt.
After all, the other party was definitely afraid of the flames, and although he was also afraid, he had some means to deal with it.
Relatively speaking, it was still safe.
But soon, he realized something.
The other party was probably provoking him.
Firstly, the Eye of Heavenly Punishment was still lost, and no one knew its location.
Secondly, borrowing such a thing was inherently dangerous. The other party dared to borrow it, but he couldn't lend it, losing face.
It seemed that the Universal Divine Monarch and the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch indeed had many grievances.
"If you're in a hurry, you can hand it over to the Blood Demon Divine Monarch for safekeeping first, how about it?" The Universal Divine Monarch looked at the Blood Demon Divine Monarch.
Hearing this, the Blood Demon Divine Monarch said calmly, "I can't spare the time right now."
The Universal Divine Monarch was quite surprised, but he didn't say anything else and looked at the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
He thought the other party would refuse, but the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch just looked at him calmly and said, "Alright."
The Universal Divine Monarch frowned, "The Nine Heavens Divine Monarch is generous. I wonder what the Divine Monarch wants?"
The Nine Heavens Divine Monarch didn't make any other movements and continued to say calmly, "It's still early. Wait until the Universal Divine Monarch receives the Star Spirit Orb and confirms whether there are any problems with it."
Gu An was calm in his heart.
The Blood Demon Divine Monarch would be shocked when he saw the item and wouldn't dare to provoke the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
After the Universal Divine Monarch saw the Star Spirit Orb, he might not ask for the Eye of Heavenly Punishment again.
After all, that orb had the aura of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
The Universal Divine Monarch looked at the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch and nodded calmly.
He didn't say anything else.
At this time, the Blood Demon Divine Monarch spoke, saying, "I need to find someone who has cultivated the Blood Transformation Great Art, preferably to the sixth level or higher."
"The Blood Demon Hall does have such people, but those who have cultivated the Blood Transformation Great Art to the sixth level are rare. We need to investigate," the Eight Tone Divine Monarch said.
"The Blood Demon Hall is not in the Eastern Dao Ancient Province, it should be hidden in the Western Spirit Wood Province," Dongfang Changli said. The Ancient Martial Divine Monarch nodded, "I will pay attention."
Gu An was surprised. The Blood Demon Divine Monarch had never mentioned this matter.
But the other party was looking for people from the Blood Demon Hall?
What level of strength was the sixth level of the Blood Transformation Great Art?
Gu An didn't know, but after he went out, he could see if the Blood Demon Divine Monarch would be honest.
Of course, it didn't matter if he wasn't honest.
As long as it didn't threaten him.
After all, the other party was a Divine Monarch, it was impossible for him not to have his own secrets.
As long as he didn't become an enemy, everything else was understandable.
After no one made a trade, the Universal Divine Monarch finally said, "I heard that the people of the Reincarnation lineage obtained a unique Reincarnation Wheel from an ancient corpse.
Now they are looking for a suitable person for it.
It is said that the Dao Imperial Clan of the Eastern Dao Ancient Province has the most suitable person.
Perhaps soon, the people of the Reincarnation lineage will contact the Imperial Clan of the Eastern Dao Ancient Province again."
Gu An listened expressionlessly, but he was very concerned in his heart.
It was the people of the Reincarnation lineage again, and their target was the Imperial Clan of the Eastern Dao Ancient Province.
This might involve him, but as long as he didn't become a member of the Imperial Clan, the problem wouldn't be too big.
"I heard that there is a County Princess in the Imperial Clan whose talent is shocking. It is said that this County Princess is going to marry the Cangmu Sect in the barren land north of the Eastern Dao Ancient Province,
I'm afraid she will become the target of the Reincarnation lineage," the Eight Tone Divine Monarch said.
"Is this Reincarnation Wheel very powerful? I heard that the more powerful the Reincarnation Wheel, the more it can withstand the vitality of qi and blood, and the more benefits it brings to fusion. Why let others become the master of this special Reincarnation Wheel?" Dongfang Changli asked.
Gu An nodded in his heart, Dongfang Changli was finally starting to play a role.
He hadn't been able to ask before, probably because he had just joined the Divine Monarch Hall and his performance was abnormal.
"The Reincarnation lineage is indeed like this, but special Reincarnation Wheels cannot be fused by everyone. Moreover, the Reincarnation lineage has a mysterious origin. To obtain more secret techniques and cultivation methods, they need to rely on special Reincarnation Wheels," the Universal Divine Monarch said seriously, "So the people in charge are doing it for these things. Of course, they will also make this special Reincarnation Wheel their subordinate, so as to plunder the power of the special Reincarnation Wheel.
There is a certain possibility of being backlashed, but the success rate is not low. After all, as long as the person who fuses is not strong, then they will have enough time to complete the plunder.
Of course, there is another reason, these people may be special Reincarnation Wheels themselves."
Gu An was surprised. He didn't expect the Reincarnation lineage to have so many different Reincarnation Wheels like inheritances.
He also didn't know who the source of the Reincarnation Wheel was.
"I don't have any news about the Reincarnation lineage, but I heard that a little monk holding a seal from the Buddhist sect went to the Eastern Dao Ancient Province with some people to preach.
I don't know if it will cause any changes in the Eastern Dao Ancient Province," the Ancient Martial Divine Monarch said.
Little monk holding a seal?
Gu An was puzzled and waited for Dongfang Changli to ask.
However, Gu An saw him nod to show that he understood.
So she said she understood what holding a seal meant?
Only he didn't understand anything.
If they continued to talk, he was afraid that he wouldn't understand what they were saying at all.
Fortunately, the Hall Master ended the Divine Monarch Hall gathering after a while.
He heard two useless messages, and there was no new information about the situation in the Eastern Dao Ancient Province.
He also had a general understanding of various places.
It was much better than before.
In the room, Gu An took a deep breath.
Most of the things at this gathering didn't affect him, except for the Universal Divine Monarch's test, which might cause huge trouble.
If the other party received the Star Spirit Orb and still asked him to produce the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, it would be a headache.
It wasn't that there was no way.
But…
Once it broke out, there would be no room for maneuver.
Don't look at the fact that he could extinguish the fire now, that was because the Eye of Heavenly Punishment hadn't come out yet.
He could extinguish some of the fire through the seal.
If it completely left the transparent box and the flames broke out.
Then he should no longer be able to resist.
So he definitely couldn't give it.
Then today's boast would be difficult to end.
After stabilizing his mind, Gu An stopped thinking.
Even if he heard about the monk holding a seal and the special Reincarnation Wheel, they had little to do with him.
There was nothing else dangerous.
So he should pay more attention to the things around him and maintain stability in the future.
Moreover, Senior Sister Tang Lan said last month that she wanted him to give an answer, and this month she was probably going to take action,
He had to deal with the gathering as soon as possible, and then start being wary of the trouble from the sect.
Main Courtyard.
Gu An looked at his ranking.
He found that the Fourth Courtyard and the Fifth Courtyard were the most competitive,
Occupying the first and second places respectively.
And the First Courtyard was currently in fifth place.
Looking at the ranking, Gu An no longer had the luck of the previous month or two.
Because Dugu Jing had said that he had a certain chance of being selected.
This month should be the last month to submit resources.
The First Courtyard would not submit.
In this way, the twelfth month would definitely be last.
When the list was announced, he would probably be removed.
This was the only way.
After determining the ranking, Gu An returned to Heavenly Suspension Peak.
It was to hear what the Blood Demon Divine Monarch thought of this gathering.
Mainly, he wanted to know what the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch looked like in his eyes now.
Heavenly Suspension Peak.
When Gu An came back, he saw the noodles on the lake, covered in dirt.
He didn't know why.
Seeing Gu An, Noodles quickly swam up to him, gesticulating wildly.
Gu An stood there listening for a long time, then tossed some peanuts to it.
Only then did he walk into the courtyard.
Although he didn't understand a word, he figured it was complaining about being wronged.
But he couldn't offer comfort, only more peanuts, enough to make it foam at the mouth after eating, thus forgetting its troubles.
Only to float on the water.
Unconscious.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Fatty Tiger immediately said, "Big Brother, the gathering is over, there's new progress."
Gu An was slightly surprised: "What new progress?"
‘The Universal Divine Lord actually wants to borrow the Eye of Heavenly Punishment from the Nine Heavens Divine Lord, and the Nine Heavens Divine Lord agreed.
But he definitely doesn't have it, so he lied. The Nine Heavens Divine Lord isn't omnipotent, there are things he can't do.’" Fatty Tiger said rather proudly.
Gu An:
He never thought that the Blood Demon Divine Lord would seize on such a thing.
And even be proud of it.
Afterward, Gu An asked him to continue with the rest.
"The Eight Tone Divine Lord should still be looking for someone related to the Barrier of Darkness. Does Big Brother know who this person is?"
The Blood Demon Divine Lord asked.
Gu An looked up at the Barrier of Darkness in the courtyard.
He said calmly, "It's me."
The Blood Demon Divine Lord wasn't stupid, he just didn't say it.
"Big Brother is really amazing. This time, when the Ancient Martial Divine Lord wants something, he will definitely pay a considerable price.
When the time comes, Big Brother can boldly ask for it," the Blood Demon Divine Lord said seriously.
"Is there any danger?" Gu An asked.
The Blood Demon Divine Lord shook his head: "There shouldn't be. Relatively speaking, there are also benefits, that is, to make the Mind Demon give up chasing Big Brother."
Then he started talking about the Palace Master's matter.
And Gu Lou also understood what Innate Lightning and Innate Blood Qi were.
The Innate Lightning Palace Master had given an explanation, that is, in the chaos of all things, nine bolts of lightning were born, and finally gathered without dispersing, occasionally a wisp of lightning would descend.
This was Innate Lightning.
As for Innate Blood Qi, it was that in the beginning of chaos, there were Innate beings.
It's just that with the passage of time and the changing of ages.
These Innate beings are almost extinct, every part of their bodies is a treasure,
Among them, essence blood is Innate Blood Qi, which can not only repair the body, but also nourish the soul, and even consolidate the position of Divine Lord.
So many people want it.
Regarding this, Gu An didn't have any emotional changes, feeling that it wouldn't be of much help to him.
Afterward, the Blood Demon Divine Lord spoke about the Buddhist sect, the Reincarnation lineage, and other things he had seen and heard.
He was the only one who didn't mention his search for someone to cultivate the Blood Transformation Great Art,
Gu An didn't ask much.
Instead, he watched Noodles by the lake for a while, then went to Peak Beyond Peak.
As soon as Gu An arrived at Peak Beyond Peak, he summoned Pang Wen and Shu Ci.
"Team Leader," the two respectfully saluted.
Gu An looked at them and said, "Are there any tasks this month?"
"Because of the demon beasts, there are no tasks for the time being, but we have to wrap up the previous tasks," Pang Wen replied.
Gu An nodded and said, "Starting this month, you may encounter some troubles in doing tasks or handling affairs. Don't be too anxious. Wait if you can, and don't start conflicts with others."
Pang Wen and Shu Ci were a little surprised.
But they still didn't ask much.
‘Also, make an extra copy of the materials from the First Courtyard recently and put it here with me,’" Gu An instructed.
It was unknown whether the First Courtyard would be directly taken back next month, so he had to prepare in advance.
Transferring the materials out first, so that they wouldn't be caught off guard if it was taken back.
The losses could be minimized.
The two also understood the reasoning behind it.
"Don't take on any tasks that can be avoided recently. We'll talk about it next month," Gu An said.
This was slightly difficult, so Gu An was only suggesting it.
Some tasks related to sales couldn't be avoided.
This was almost going against the sect.
He didn't have to go out, but others didn't have the same treatment as him.
After giving some more instructions, the two left.
Thus, Gu An looked at the panel.
【Name: Gu An】
【Cultivation: Return to Void Completion】
【State: Azure Lotus in the Qi Sea, Profound Yellow in the Qi Sea】
【Techniques: 21 / 50】
【Bitter Cultivation: 16 / 100】
【Ring of Destiny】
There was no progress because demon beasts had attacked, and he had been hiding for more than half a month.
He simply couldn't chop wood.
This month would be a bit difficult, and it might be even more difficult next month when he lost his marriage alliance status.
The people of the Reincarnation lineage would feel that he was no longer valuable and would take action.
His current self seemed to have good strength.
But after experiencing the demon beasts and that powerful Buddhist light, he realized that he was still very small.
He couldn't even see what was in the Buddhist light.
Now, the only way to improve his bitter cultivation was to go to the Hell Hall.
The accumulation of September, October, and November gave him a total of nine days.
But nine days of bitter cultivation would only increase him by about sixty points at most.
Deducting the time spent on improving techniques, it was probably not even sixty.
This was not enough to deal with what was to come.
Senior Sister Tang Lan's backer, the Reincarnation lineage, and the removal of his marriage alliance status.
All would become trouble.
So the first tribulation would be after the list was announced next month.
If he was lucky enough to be selected, then Reincarnation would definitely come to control him.
If he failed to be selected, he would be killed, and others would be much bolder towards him.
In short, no matter what happened next month, the tribulation would definitely come.
Return to Void Completion could only barely cope.
A little carelessness would lead to big problems.
The next day.
No one from the sect went out to fight the remaining demon beasts anymore.
The people outside were enough to deal with them.
Gu An hesitated for a moment and headed towards the Law Enforcement Hall.
"Junior Brother is here to see Senior Brother Dugu?" A Senior Sister from the Law Enforcement Hall asked.
Gu An nodded: "Yes."
"Please wait a moment," the fairy immediately replied.
A moment later.
Dugu Jing looked at Gu An with some surprise: "What did Junior Brother just say?"
"Can I prepay for the time to go to the Hell Hall next month?" Gu An asked seriously.
Yes, nine days was not enough, but twelve days would be almost enough.
Adding the remaining time this month, the probability of filling up bitter cultivation was very high.
Spirit Control Peak.
A man sipped tea and said with a smile, "The First Courtyard's leader hasn't given any response?"
Fairy Tang Lan lowered her head and said, "Yes, should we go find him?"
"No need," the man put down his teacup and said expressionlessly: "Being so tough, we don't need to bother him. I heard that the Blood Shadow Sect has a poison, colorless and odorless, as long as it's dripped on the branches of trees that are often passed, it can make people mentally unstable.
The First Courtyard is full of newbies, help them sharpen themselves a bit.
"Should we do anything else?" Fairy Tang Lan asked.
The man said with a smile: "You can handle it, but don't be too hasty.
The First Courtyard's leader is so tough, he must have something to rely on.
He's probably already been drawn in by someone.
That's good, let's see who will help him.
Let's confirm who's behind him.
Otherwise, why do you think he can ignore us?"
"What if there's no one behind him?" Fairy Tang Lan asked curiously.
"No one?" The man glanced at Tang Lan and said: "Then it's dangerous, after all, either the person behind him is hiding too deeply, or the First Courtyard's leader is hiding too deeply, and has enough confidence to challenge us.
But we're not without our own hidden cards.
Go do it."
