No ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍one knew how long they had flown, or how far.

Hu ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍Tao sat on A Lan’s back, holding a spiritual fruit in her hand and nibbling at it casually.

She ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍was now already a Golden Core cultivator. Let alone flying for a few days, even flying for a year and a half would not make her feel tired.

But ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍the little girl Honglian was different.

At ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍first, she was so excited that she waved her arms and legs, pointing at distant mountains and asking what they were, then lying on A Lan’s back and looking downward, chattering nonstop.

But after they had flown for a while, the little girl gradually fell silent.

Hu Tao looked down and could not help smiling.

At some point, Honglian had fallen asleep on her lap.

Her small face was rosy, and there was even a trace of drool at the corner of her mouth. She was sleeping sweetly.

A Lan also noticed and slowed down, saying in a low voice, “This little girl fell asleep?”

Hu Tao nodded. “She’s a child, after all. Once the excitement passes, she naturally gets sleepy.”

A Lan was silent for a moment, then said, “Little Taozi, I have a question for you.”

Hu Tao raised her brows. “What question?”

As A Lan flew, it slowly said, “This world is so vast, but after flying for so long, I haven’t seen many human living beings.”

“Did Master not move other humans here as well?”

Hearing this, Hu Tao was slightly startled, then nodded. “You’re right.”

“When Martial Uncle relocated everyone back then, he only brought over the entire Taiyi Dao Sect.”

“As for other humans… it’s not like there are none.”

“Every once in a while, some members of the Heaven and Earth Great Love Unity Alliance from the original world are allowed to enter this world.”

“But those who can enter are all strictly screened, so there aren’t many.”

A Lan seemed thoughtful, then asked, “Then do you ever feel bored?”

“After all, there are so few people, and not many you can talk to.”

Hu Tao froze for a moment, then smiled. “A Lan, are you worrying about me?”

A Lan snorted twice and said nothing.

Hu Tao smiled and shook her head. “No.”

“Although there aren’t many people in this world, with the teleportation formations, we can still return to the original world.”

“Besides, this Supreme Creation Lesser Luo Grotto Heaven is not a place ordinary people can enter.”

“This is Martial Uncle’s own world.”

“Cultivating here, the Spiritual Energy is more than ten times richer than outside, and there are no natural disasters or man-made calamities.”

“Being able to cultivate here is a blessing countless people could never obtain no matter how much they begged.”

“And if I really feel bored, I can just return to the original world to take a look, then come back after I’ve had enough fun.”

“How nice.”

After listening, A Lan was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “So that’s how it is.”

It did not ask again.

But from its words, Hu Tao sensed a different emotion.

She thought for a moment and said softly, “A Lan, do you feel lonely?”

A Lan stiffened slightly.

After a moment, it said in a low voice, “Master… hasn’t really accompanied me much.”

“I don’t have any kin either.”

“When I was asleep, it was fine. But when I woke up, everything had changed.”

“Although I know this was Master’s arrangement, and although I know everyone is still here…”

“Sometimes, I still feel a little lonely.”

Hearing this, Hu Tao suddenly felt somewhat uncomfortable.

She reached out and stroked A Lan’s scales, saying softly, “It’s fine. We’re here.”

“In the future, if you want to talk, come find me.”

“If you feel lonely, come out and walk around more.”

A Lan gave a soft hum.

It turned around and flew back the way they had come.

They had been out long enough. It was time to return.

......

The return journey seemed even longer than the way out.

No one knew how long they flew before that familiar range of mountains finally appeared in the distance.

The Taiyi Dao Sect’s residence was up ahead.

A Lan’s spirits lifted, and it sped toward that place.

However, just as it was about to arrive, golden light suddenly burst forth from the horizon.

A dazzling golden beam descended with a boom, falling straight toward a certain place within the Taiyi Dao Sect’s residence.

That golden light was vast and boundless, like an auspicious sign descending from the heavens, yet also like a manifestation of gods and Buddhas.

In an instant, the sky of the entire Little Luo Grotto Heaven was dyed gold.

A Lan froze.

Hu Tao on its back also froze.

Even Honglian, who had been sleeping, was startled awake by the golden light. She opened her eyes in a daze, her little mouth forming a round shape.

“Wow…”

The golden light lasted for a full fifteen minutes before slowly dissipating.

And by then, the Taiyi Dao Sect’s residence was already in an uproar.

Countless disciples rushed out of their caves and looked up at the sky, discussing animatedly.

“What was that?!”

“Golden light! Golden light descending from the heavens!”

“An auspicious omen! This is an auspicious omen sent by heaven!”

“Who is it? Where did the golden light land?”

Some sharp-eyed disciples had already noticed that the source of the golden light was a small courtyard on the eastern side of the residence.

The courtyard was not large. A young Dao Companion couple lived there.

The man was called Zhao Qingyan, and the woman was called Liu Ruoxi. Both were inner sect disciples of the Taiyi Dao Sect at peak Foundation Establishment. Usually, they were extremely low-key and completely unremarkable.

But at this moment, that small courtyard became the focus of the entire Taiyi Dao Sect.

Because after the golden light descended, the cry of an infant rang out from within the courtyard.

“Wah…”

The crying was clear and bright, resounding into the clouds.

Everyone looked at each other.

Giving birth?

Could giving birth create such an phenomenon?

A Lan landed not far from that courtyard, staring with wide dragon eyes at the faint golden light seeping out from within. The entire dragon was dumbfounded.

“This… what’s going on?”

Hu Tao held Honglian, her face also full of shock.

“Giving birth can cause this kind of commotion?”

Honglian blinked, then suddenly whispered, “That little baby seems really amazing.”

At the same time, within the heavenly palace, inside the Longevity Hall.

Gu Yan slowly opened his eyes.

He had been cultivating in seclusion when he suddenly sensed a strange heavenly secret fluctuation, carrying a hint of extraordinariness.

Gu Yan frowned slightly and waved his hand. The Haotian Mirror appeared out of thin air.

The mirror surface flowed, and the scene rapidly drew closer.

Moments later, the Taiyi Dao Sect’s residence, that small courtyard, that Dao Companion couple, and the newborn infant all came into view.

Gu Yan looked at the scene in the mirror, his gaze shifting slightly.

Around the infant’s body, a faint layer of golden light lingered.

Although the golden light was weak, it contained a certain mysterious aura.

It was not the aura of an ordinary mortal.

Nor was it the aura of a cultivator’s reincarnation.

Instead, it was…

The aura of the Immortal Realm.

Gu Yan grew interested. He pointed with two fingers, and the scene in the Haotian Mirror suddenly changed, beginning to trace the infant’s past-life karma.

A moment later, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

So that was it.

This infant’s past life was a Profound Immortal from a force in the Immortal Realm called the Divine Court.

Profound Immortal was above Heavenly Immortal and True Immortal, and below Golden Immortal.

Even in the Immortal Realm, it could be considered a fairly strong existence.

This Profound Immortal had originally held a certain position in the Divine Court, but because he angered the Divine Emperor, he was demoted to the mortal world and cast into reincarnation.

The Divine Emperor of the Divine Court was also an Immortal Emperor-level existence.

Naturally, no one dared to violate the taboos he set.

Those who violated them either died or were demoted into reincarnation.

This Profound Immortal was rather lucky. He did not die, merely being demoted.

And through a twist of fate, his reincarnated body had actually landed within Gu Yan’s Little Luo Grotto Heaven.

Gu Yan looked thoughtfully at the crying infant in the mirror.

Logically speaking, his Little Luo Grotto Heaven was enhanced by the red entry Body Without Self and Form, so the Heavenly Dao could not discover it, nor could the Great Dao.

But that did not obstruct the normal operation of reincarnation.

Reincarnation was one of the fundamental laws of the myriad worlds.

As long as living beings died and living beings were born, the power of reincarnation would naturally operate.

Those souls that should reincarnate, those living beings that should be reborn, would still follow the predetermined trajectory, find suitable mothers, and be born into suitable families.

However, once they were born into the Little Luo Grotto Heaven, they would be assimilated by this world and covered by Gu Yan’s entry power.

From then on, the Heavenly Dao would not be able to find them, and the Great Dao would not be able to discover them either.

In other words, they would completely disappear from the river of karmic reincarnation.

“Interesting.”

“A Profound Immortal of the Immortal Realm’s Divine Court was demoted to the mortal world, yet ended up falling into my place.”

“If the Divine Emperor knew that his punishment instead allowed this person to completely escape his control, I wonder what he would think.”

Gu Yan shook his head and suddenly thought of something.

The reason he wanted Dragon Lord to create a Heavenly Court force in the future was precisely because the structure of the Immortal Realm was somewhat… chaotic.

The Immortal Court, forces of the Netherworld, Divine Court, Demon Court…

In short, every force had its own Immortal Emperor and its own territory.

Only there was no Heavenly Court that unified the myriad heavens.

That was why he had developed that idea.

One day in the future, he would have Dragon Lord establish a true Heavenly Court, ruling the myriad heavens and commanding the myriad worlds.

Of course, that was something far in the future.

Gu Yan withdrew his thoughts and continued looking at the Haotian Mirror.

In the mirror, that Dao Companion couple was holding the infant, their faces full of joy.

The surrounding disciples came forward one after another to congratulate them, laughing and chatting.

It was a peaceful scene.

After watching for a while, Gu Yan no longer paid attention.

So what if he was the reincarnation of a Profound Immortal?

In his place, he was merely an ordinary child.

How far he could grow would depend entirely on his own fortune.

With a thought, Gu Yan put away the Haotian Mirror.

He continued his seclusion.

Time flowed like a shuttle, passing swiftly.

Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, within the Longevity Hall, Gu Yan slowly opened his eyes.

He was now six hundred and sixty years old, and his cultivation had reached the Earth Immortal Third Layer.

Sensing the surging immortal essence magical power within his body, he felt rather satisfied.

Yet at this moment, Gu Yan suddenly frowned.

A strange feeling surged from somewhere unseen.

It was as if something was challenging his sword intent.

Gu Yan’s heart stirred, and he closed his eyes.

His mind sank into his sea of consciousness, following that feeling all the way back to its source.

In the next instant, the scene before him abruptly changed.

A vast void, boundless and endless.

Countless swords hung high in the air.

Long swords, short swords, broad swords, thin swords, heavy swords, flexible swords—everything was there.

Every sword contained a unique sword intent.

This place was precisely the Origin of Myriad Swords.

Gu Yan stood within this void, his gaze narrowing slightly.

The last time he came here was because he obtained the entry Eternal Unique Supreme Sword Master · Gold, was forcibly pulled into this place, and condensed his own Sword of All Beings.

And this time…

He sensed something.

In the distance, a sword intent was slowly rising.

That sword intent was vast and boundless, incomparably sharp, as though it could sever everything and destroy everything.

Yet it was not only sharpness.

Within that sword intent, there were also all kinds of contradictory auras.

And yet they were perfectly fused together, forming a unique sword intent.

Gu Yan looked at that sword intent, his gaze shifting slightly.

This was…

Someone was challenging his position as Sword Master?
