Reverend Insanity: Dream Gu

Lin Yan sighed inwardly. The gap between Rank Six and Rank Seven, or even between Mortal and Immortal, was insignificant compared to the gulf separating Rank Seven from Rank Eight.

With sufficient methods, a Rank Six could still challenge a Peak Rank Seven Gu Immortal. In the original novel, Ten Extreme Physiques had achieved such feats, and several other extraordinary Gu Immortals had done the same despite not possessing a Ten Extreme Physique.

But for a Peak Rank Seven to contend against a Rank Eight...That was a feat worthy of being recorded in history, something seen only during the youth of the Ten Venerables. Throughout the original novel, there were only two or three such examples.

For now, however, he had more important matters to attend to. Whatever secrets Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit concealed could wait until he was strong enough to uncover them himself.

Before long, Lin Yan’s streak of crimson light arrived above Sandwell Oasis. Looking down, he saw that after two and a half years, the Huang Family had become far more prosperous than before. With the vast resources continuously supplied by Flame Sovereign Blessed Land, the family never lacked cultivation resources despite remaining secluded in a remote corner of western desert.

His uncle, Shan Shayuan, along with several other Gu Immortal seeds, had all been carefully nurtured. In just over two years, they had each reached Peak Rank Four. Although their combat strength and attainment could not compare to the Gu Masters raised within the blessed land, their years of traveling and managing the family’s affairs had given them a wealth of experience the others lacked. Once they entered the Dream Realm to make up for their shortcomings, advancing into capable mid-tier Gu Immortals in the future would not be difficult.

The moment Lin Yan appeared above the oasis, the streak of crimson light immediately caught everyone’s attention. Under countless astonished gazes, the rainbow light gradually faded, revealing the elegant figure of an Immortal.

The entire oasis erupted into excitement. Countless mortal Gu Masters immediately knelt, their voices resounding across the desert.

”Greetings, Supreme Elder!”

Hearing the commotion, Clan Head Huang Ming hurried out with dozens of Rank Four and Rank Five Family Elders. The group flew into the air and respectfully bowed. Unable to hide his joy, Huang Ming asked, ”Supreme Elder, what brings you back?”

”This time, I’ve returned to relocate the entire Huang Family into the blessed land,” Lin Yan said indifferently.

With the original timeline about to begin, Fang Yuan’s rebirth was drawing ever closer. The chaotic era was on the verge of unfolding. Leaving the Huang Family outside as an exposed weakness would be far too dangerous.

If they accidentally offended the wrong person and the entire Huang Family was wiped out, the consequences would ultimately fall on him. The Huang Family had supported him greatly over the years. He was not someone like the Great Love Immortal Venerable, who regarded everyone as disposable and sought only his own benefit. Since he had relied on the Huang Family, he naturally had the responsibility to protect them.

Moreover, the Huang Family’s bloodline itself was a potential weakness. Blood Path, Wisdom Path, and Information Path Gu Immortals could use it to trace his whereabouts or even cast curses upon him. At present, Lin Yan possessed very few methods to defend against such attacks, making them extremely difficult to guard against.

Family Head Huang Ming was briefly stunned before immediately bowing. ”Everything will be arranged according to the Supreme Elder’s wishes.”

Lin Yan nodded faintly. ”There’s no need to rush. I’ll give you a few months to make the necessary preparations.”

After making the arrangements, he returned to the courtyard and quietly waited for the appointed day. More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Whoosh!

Deep within the Gu World, the mighty River of Time flowed without end. Every drop of Time Water was pale white, yet within each drop were billions upon billions of grains of sand. As the waves surged forward, countless drops collided and merged, releasing endless streams of light that reflected every corner of the Gu World.

Within those flowing lights were the lives of countless people. Heroes rose and fell, countless clans flourished before fading into history, and even mighty experts who once shook the five regions eventually disappeared beneath the endless flow of time. Everything that had ever existed left its mark within the River of Time.

At that moment, the endless river suddenly slowed. The surging waves, the flowing light, even the countless scenes reflected within the river all seemed to freeze.

Then, from the lower reaches of the River of Time, a vast will appeared. Carried by that will, a crystal-like Gu cut through the endless current and flew upstream. No matter how violently the River of Time surged, it could not slow its advance in the slightest. It crossed the river as though it stood outside time itself.

Its body was no larger than a palm, yet it possessed breathtaking beauty. Its pair of delicate wings shimmered with a brilliant yellow-green light, carrying both the vitality of spring and the loneliness of autumn, as if countless years had gathered upon that tiny body.

Rank Six Immortal Gu, Spring Autumn Cicada!
