After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In

Chapter 718: Chapter 436: Did I Really Master the Fake Technique? (Part 2)

Then a pair of eyes slowly opened.

Then the terrifying suction force wanted to devour everything completely.

The immense pressure was so frightening that it left everyone in shock.

“What is this?” Biluo Divine Monarch exclaimed in surprise.

“A wisp of Qi from the Returning Nether Sea Spirit Pearl—whenever the Nether Sea Clan is slaughtered by a tenth, a pearl will appear.

As for its specific power…” The Hall Master pondered for a moment and said:

“The recently active Buddhist sect is vulnerable before it.

It is said there is currently only one pearl, but its location remains uncertain.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s heart was filled with alarm.

In other words, even if the Nether Sea Clan is not strong, if a tenth of them is killed, a terrifying thing will appear.

If genocide were to occur, then…

Would it be even more frightening?

“Whether the Swallowing Ghost Technique can prevent the appearance of the Returning Nether Sea Spirit Pearl is also uncertain, after all, no one can be sure,” the Hall Master remarked with some emotion.

Everyone fell silent.

Gu An was also quite surprised, not expecting the Hall Master’s source of information to be so extraordinary.

However, the appearance of the Returning Nether Sea Spirit Pearl didn’t bring any obvious threat to him.

It seemed that as long as the strength was not too far apart, he could even intimidate the other side.

Perhaps it was due to the Hundred Hairs Swallowing Ghost.

The matter of the Swallowing Ghost Clan intrigued everyone quite a bit.

Afterwards, the Divine Monarch Hall discussed some other matters.

Gu An mostly listened quietly, absorbing the insights of these people.

Some time later.

The Divine Monarch Hall session ended.

Streaks of golden light flickered.

Gu An returned to his body.

“You’re back?” Chu Meng, who was sitting at the table reading a book, turned her head to look.

Gu An was quite surprised and said, “Senior, aren’t you eating peanuts?”

“Am I supposed to be eating peanuts all the time?” Chu Meng retorted.

“Can you become stronger without eating peanuts?” Gu An asked instinctively.

Chu Meng chuckled, “Will eating peanuts make me stronger?”

Isn’t that so? I improve through logging, you grow stronger by eating peanuts. As a subordinate, I do the hard work while you as a superior just enjoy yourself.

Thinking this in his heart, Gu An didn’t voice it.

Sometimes, you can’t offend your superior.

Otherwise, it could bring immense trouble.

“The peanuts are finished, so you need to find a way to buy more. This task is yours,” Chu Meng said, withdrawing her gaze.

At the moment, she was looking at a secret book on cultivation techniques.

Gu An glanced at it, noticing four large characters on it—Four Seasons Demon Charm.

Upon seeing the words, Gu An was taken aback, wasn’t this a Charming Technique?

Senior, isn’t your Charming Technique skill level sufficient yet? Do you still need more cultivation?

Gu An felt a sense of concern for his own future.

As someone wholeheartedly committed to the Dao, would his conviction be undermined by the other party?

“What did the Divine Monarch Hall discuss?” Chu Meng asked casually, flipping a page.

Gu An thought briefly.

And recounted the whole process.

The main topic was about achieving immortality.

The Swallowing Ghost Technique was also important.

As well as briefly discussing the marriage contract, the Dragon Clan, and the Jiutian Temple.

These were roughly the three main issues.

The Ancient Martial Divine Monarch’s request for a special Reincarnation, just leave it to fate.

No need to worry too much.

Chu Meng set down the book, quite surprised, “So does that mean you can’t become immortal?”

“It seems so. Senior, have you become immortal?” Gu An asked.

“How could I be immortal in the Golden Core Early Stage?” Chu Meng looked at Gu An, asking, “Are you about to become immortal?”

“I’m at Golden Core Perfection?” Pausing, Gu An curiously asked, “What is the realm of becoming an immortal?”

“You’re not far off,” Chu Meng replied seriously, “Gathering Five Qi, Lighting Three Flowers.

The Five Qi are the Four Directions Qi along with one’s own Qi.

Do you know what the Three Flowers are?

And why is each Flower considered a barrier in a realm?”

Gu An shook his head; he knew very little about this.

“The first flower ignites Immortal Qi, the second ignites Immortal Bone, the third ignites Immortal Soul,” Chu Meng poured herself a cup of tea and explained,

“Lighting the Three Flowers is equivalent to shedding the mortal coil.

The gap between each flower is huge.

Once all three are lit, you ascend the Immortal Bridge to cross to the Other Shore.

The Other Shore is the edge of the human world, the fleeting Immortal Road.”

Immortal Bridge follows becoming immortal; Gu An hadn’t realized and thought immortality was still distant.

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t very far.

If everything went smoothly, perhaps in a few years, he would also aim for the Immortal Road.

But then…

Would the Immortal Road still be there in a few years?

“Do you think I’ll have enough time, senior?” Gu An asked.

“How would I know?” Chu Meng said irritably, “Don’t you know your own cultivation level? Do higher-ups need to manage your immortality?”

Pausing, Chu Meng spoke again, “But competing with those people should be tough.

They could become immortal at any time.

That means the number may decrease every day.

Until even the East Dao Ancient State can’t achieve immortality.”

Gu An lowered his eyebrows, curiously asking, “If the Immortal Road is severed, can one still become immortal?”

“Probably,” Chu Meng replied uncertainly, “There are always some Heaven’s Chosen Sons who can defy the norms and walk a path that stuns the world.

And it depends on why the Immortal Road was severed.”

Gu An sighed, realizing he could only take one step at a time.

For now, he was still some distance from immortality.

Once the last Qi is condensed, the subsequent Hard Cultivation would likely be challenging to obtain.

It’s often said that each flower is a realm, perhaps it would be similar to before; once the Warm Current is there, it’s hard to have it afterwards.

Then Chu Meng shifted the conversation to the Swallowing Ghost Technique, “Do you really feel nothing at all?”

“A little, but it’s controllable,” Gu An replied.

Chu Meng got up, circling around Gu An, observing him, “I suspect you’ve mastered the true Swallowing Ghost Technique, or maybe the missing parts of it have manifested fully in you.

Your existence might turn the deception into reality.

Becoming the genuine nemesis of the Nether Sea Clan.

Unfortunately, there are no other members of the Nether Sea Clan to test this with.

But the Returning Nether Sea Spirit Pearl should be real; some records mention it, though the exact details are unclear.”

Regarding the Jiutian Temple,

Chu Meng didn’t say much.

Just mentioned they wanted to use the title of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch for some purposes, to gain certain benefits.

She said she wasn’t the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch and it wasn’t her concern.

Let the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch worry about it herself.

Gu An: “….”

Have you ever considered that your subordinate might just fill the role of the Divine Monarch?

Out of curiosity, Chu Meng asked if he had heard about the marriage contract reported to the Nine Heavens.

Gu An shook his head.

It was simply impossible; didn’t he know his own worth?

They talked about a few more things, but Gu An didn’t gain much from it.

However, he did gain some understanding of becoming immortal.

Now that Spiritual Energy is fading and the Immortal Road is severed, This text is hosted at noᴠelfire.net

it’s uncertain whether there will still be an opportunity in the future.

Without thinking much, Gu An continued cultivating Flying Snow.

He felt like he would soon learn to compress it.

At the same time, he was also keeping an eye on the Immortal Ship.

One day later.

The twelfth layer was not discovered.

Three days later, someone began roaming around the twelfth layer, trying to inquire about its situation.

On the same day, Gu An noticed that the Primordial Spirit Perfection cultivator and her senior sister had set up many things.

Five days later, someone finally entered the twelfth layer.

In an instant, the people of the Zhuanlun lineage began to panic.

But soon new individuals took up the heavy responsibility.

They started becoming the new leaders.

They came to the fifteenth layer to confirm, and upon finding people still present,

decided to continue with the plan.

Gu An was quite surprised, not expecting their determination to complete the objective.

Even if the original leader died, this remained the case.

This was perplexing.

Seven days later.

The ship finally sailed into the Black Reef Sea.

At this moment, all the people from the Zhuanlun lineage on the ship were in position.

Preparing for the sacrifice.

Meanwhile, Gu An discovered another group was also in place to launch a counterattack.

It was exactly the people led by the Primordial Spirit Perfection cultivator and her senior sister.

At noon.

The Array surged, directly trapping and binding everyone.

Then a blood-red aura began to permeate.

Everyone on the ship felt shock and terror.

An ethereal voice sounded, “We merely need a trace of your heart’s blood, nothing more. We hope you will cooperate.”

Not many believed such words, and many began to resist.

But it was to no avail.

“I am working for the strong ones on the fifteenth layer. I hope you won’t be unwise, and besides, you can’t escape the Array’s bindings.

Why waste effort?” the ethereal voice sounded again.

Gu An: “….”

Why was it always him?

At this point, he sensed something resonating with the Array.

In the depths below the sea.
