Chapter 716 - 435: Third Prince: I Deeply Regret
Officially settled in.
Here it’s still a bed, and she’s still the one sleeping in it.
Gu An didn’t mind staying here.
After all, he really didn’t need to sleep. The environment here was good, and the conditions were decent.
Because he had the Identity Token left by that Prince, there was nothing to worry about.
As for the twelfth floor, it depended on when the Zhuanlun lineage would discover it.
Even if discovered, it was of little consequence.
Ultimately, no one knew he was the one behind it.
Unless that Prince betrayed him.
"By the way, which Prince is he?" Gu An asked.
Chu Meng, who was examining around, took out a book and looked through it: "The Third Prince, backed by the Great General of the Imperial City, with quite a few supporters.
Unfortunately, he’s still not as good as the Eldest Prince, especially since the Eldest Prince is about to take action against him. He’s probably forced to cooperate with the Zhuanlun lineage."
"It seems he has his struggles too, but cooperating with the Zhuanlun lineage is like seeking skin with a tiger. Who knows what will happen after the cooperation is successful?" Gu An was quite curious.
In theory, he should be a sinner of the Royal Family, but it might just be him who laughs last.
He’s just a bit timid, fleeing at the slightest provocation.
He wondered if he would still encounter him when he went to the Imperial City after a few years.
Later, Gu An observed the Immortal Ship, which seemed to be less dangerous.
But he was curious about how people at the next stop would react to seeing so many people on board still alive.
After all, these people were supposed to die, then the next stop would take in more passengers.
The tickets might even be sold out.
However, he wasn’t worried. This room of the Third Prince should be fine.
He asked Chu Meng.
Chu Meng nodded: "There’s no problem per se, but....."
Chu Meng looked at the ticket and said to Gu An: "He ends at the next stop."
Gu An: "..."
Only to return below once again.
Gu An calculated the days. In three days, it would be September first.
He wondered if the Divine Monarch Hall would open this time.
The Divine Monarch Hall had its benefits, at least to know various situations.
Otherwise, many things would remain unknown.
In the following two days, Gu An found no changes below.
The people from the Zhuanlun lineage were still around.
There were still seven or eight days before reaching the Black Reef Sea, and he wondered if the others from the Zhuanlun lineage would react in these days.
If they followed their plan, problems might arise.
However, he discovered that the one with Primordial Spirit Perfection seemed to have noticed something and was already setting up.
They were using an Array as well.
Their contest involved not only cultivation but also their array expertise.
Unfortunately, Gu An couldn’t fully understand it.
Whether it’s an Array, Elixir Pills, talisman, Forging, Gu An was only half-knowledgeable.
For those without talent, looking at these things was like reading a Heavenly Book.
He also envied those who mastered these things, able to earn a lot of Spirit Stone.
The most he could do to earn Spirit Stone was logging at night.
That’s the difference between a cultivator who has learned special abilities and an ordinary cultivator.
Knowledge and skill are wealth.
That day, Gu An finally received a message from the Hall Master.
The Divine Monarch Hall would open on September first.
"I somewhat want to go up, yet also don’t." Gu An thought to himself.
He wanted to go up to get information, but also didn’t because every time he went up, someone would make things difficult for him.
Going to the Divine Monarch Hall was like visiting a grave, a heavy heart.
Next day.
September first.
At noon, Gu An sat cross-legged, responding to the summons of the Divine Monarch Hall.
A moment later, a flash of Golden Light.
Gu An was seated on a high seat.
The same feeling as always.
Then came other flashes of Golden Light.
The same number of people.
Soon, the Hall Master on the main seat slowly spoke:
"Everyone is here."
Soon after, the Hall Master mentioned the Innate Thunder again.
No one spoke up.
After all, most of the Innate Thunder had already been handed over, and even if there were more, it would take some time.
"Besides, there is news saying that it is no longer possible to become Immortal overseas." The Hall Master spoke again.
This time, everyone was stunned.
Incredulous.
Unable to become Immortal overseas?
They had never heard of such a thing.
"That’s why some people overseas have come to the Dao Ancient State, some of them to become Immortal." The Hall Master spoke softly.
Dongfang Changli couldn’t believe it: "Is it because of the retreat of Spiritual Energy that it’s impossible to become Immortal overseas?"
The Hall Master nodded slightly.
For a moment, everyone was shocked.
Was the situation that severe?
"Will even the Daoist Orthodox Sect face the same fate?" Dongfang Changli asked again.
After all, there were Daoist Orthodox Sects among the Overseas Islands.
Gu An also looked curiously at the Hall Master.
Faced with everyone’s gaze, the Hall Master remained calm and slowly spoke: "There are quotas, but not many, very few."
Gu An was taken aback.
Has the Daoist Orthodox Sect also been so restricted?
Countable on one hand.
The Daoist Orthodox Sect must have countless Heavenly Pride.
Initially, everyone had a chance, but now.....
One wonders how they will compete.
And those overseas who cannot compete with others naturally must leave.
Go to the Immortal Land.
"Do many people know about this?" Dongfang Changli asked again.
In fact, she already had the answer in her heart.
Because there were no ordinary people present.
If they didn’t know, it meant very few people were aware of this.
Even if someone knew, they probably didn’t know clearly enough.
The Hall Master shook his head.
Dongfang Changli sighed inwardly.
She must become an Immortal quickly.
She still wants to refine herself more, not wasting resources.
After all, resources must be saved to save the world.
But now.....
Resources must be spent to become an Immortal, a great loss.
Gu An was astonished in his heart, thinking those from overseas were just looking for something.
Never thought they came for becoming Immortal.
And currently, Dong Dao Ancient State can still freely become Immortal.
But as Spiritual Energy wanes, it will soon become impossible to be Immortal.
Only the Dao Sect can still hold some positions.
In an instant, Gu An felt immense pressure.
However, he was still some distance from becoming an Immortal.
He wanted to ask how much time was left.
Yet, as the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, he should not ask this question.
And Dongfang Changli surprisingly did not speak either.
He could only ask Senior Brother Hua then.
However...
Gu An was curious, was the Hall Master really Senior Brother Hua?
Could Senior Brother Hua be so casual and know so many things?
It didn’t seem like it.
"The True Dragon Clan wants to know to whom the marriage contract reported to the Nine Heavens belonged," the Huan Yu Divine Monarch looked at the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch and said:
"They are looking for insiders and are willing to pay True Dragon Skeletons."
Gu An was a bit surprised; he didn’t expect such a thing.
However, he was quite curious, what did the True Dragon Clan want with him?
They had no grudges.
Others were also curious, just who had such ability.
To report to the Nine Heavens.
"I have also heard about it." The Ancient Martial Divine Monarch spoke:
"I heard that people from the Jiutian Temple have already said they communicated with the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch and already know the source of the marriage contract."
Gu An was a bit puzzled; they communicated with the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch?
Why didn’t he know?
Logically, there was no other Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, as the other Jade Pendant was in his hand.
Besides, does the other party know the Nine Chapters of Decrees?
But the Jiutian Temple has a lot on its mind.
Unsure what they intend to do.
"Actually, as long as they get married, they can more or less find out the location." The Biluo Divine Monarch spoke.
She was relieving the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
She didn’t believe the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch knew the source of the marriage contract.
As Biluo Divine Monarch’s words fell, Huan Yu Divine Monarch and others still stared at the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
Gu An sighed in his heart, knowing he couldn’t remain silent.
This Huan Yu Divine Monarch always troubles him.
Next time, he should send something over.
"You will know next year." Gu An spoke calmly.
"Next year? That fast?" Eight Sounds Divine Monarch was a bit surprised.
Huan Yu Divine Monarch felt the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch glance at him; what’s going on?
Did this ancestor lack virtue, now targeting him?
It was Biluo Divine Monarch who mentioned the time, why look at him?
However, for this marriage contract to be next year, it’s truly puzzling.
Every time there is a report to the Nine Heavens, it spans centuries.
"The Buddhist Sect seems to have more movements recently, still targeting the East Dao Ancient State." The Ancient Martial Divine Monarch spoke again.
"I heard that the Zhuanlun lineage is about to produce a special Reincarnation, and this time they plan to cooperate with the Royal Family," Dongfang Changli said.
"A new special Reincarnation?" The Ancient Martial Divine Monarch pondered and said: "Special Reincarnations usually need to be drawn out, and afterward, a hollow stone will fall.
Do you have a way to obtain it?"
Eight Sounds Divine Monarch shook his head.
Dongfang Changli did the same: "I’ve been investigating the Nether Sea Clan lately, and we’ve obtained an extremely important piece of information."
Hearing this, Gu An was somewhat curious.
He cultivated the Swallowing Ghost Technique, destined to stand opposed to the Nether Sea Clan.
Knowing their information is best.
Dongfang Changli indeed wouldn’t disappoint him.
However, regarding the hollow stone of the special Reincarnation, he could see if he could obtain it at that time.
Logically, it’s very difficult.
After all, the plan has failed.
Unable to draw out the Blood Heaven Reincarnation.
Thus, cannot get the hollow stone.
If the entire stone could be obtained, wouldn’t the Ancient Martial Divine Monarch want it?
