Chapter 1228: Chapter 638: Dodge Quickly
"Don’t be nervous, if I wanted to harm you, I would have done it earlier. You have the aura of the Immortal Seed, only such blood can activate the teleportation array."
He pointed to the cliff.
"It’s indeed dangerous below, but there’s a way out above."
Gu Sheng was skeptical but thought he had no other options and nodded, gritting his teeth.
He operated his mental method, forcing a drop of crimson Blood Pearl from his fingertip. Strangely, a glimmer of golden light flowed at the center of the Blood Pearl.
"What pure Immortal Seed aura!"
Ling Xiao carefully took the Blood Pearl and began to chant an obscure ancient spell.
As the spell echoed, Gu Sheng was surprised to see Ling Xiao’s demeanor undergo a drastic change.
The previously playful monk now looked dignified, a faint golden Buddha Light emanating from his body.
Yet within this sacred aura, there was a faintly eerie air that made one’s heart pound.
"This is..."
Gu Sheng instinctively took two steps back.
Suddenly, a black pattern appeared on Ling Xiao’s forehead, writhing, with countless menacing shadow demons vaguely visible within, struggling and roaring.
He abruptly opened his eyes, and two beams of interlocking black and red light shot out from them, piercing through the space before him!
"Crack—"
The void shattered, revealing two swirling black holes, deep and unpredictable.
"Quick! Jump into the one on the left!"
Ling Xiao shouted as he leaped into the right-side black hole, his figure instantly swallowed.
Gu Sheng looked at the constantly twisting black hole, his throat dry.
But remembering the danger of staying in this strange world, he closed his eyes and jumped in.
As soon as he entered, Gu Sheng felt the world spinning.
Surrounded by endless darkness, even his Divine Sense couldn’t extend, with only the howling wind and explosions in his ears.
His body was torn by an invisible force, his organs shifting places.
"What the hell is this place!"
Gu Sheng roared in anger, but not a sound came out.
He didn’t know how much time passed, and just as he was about to lose his grip, a faint light appeared ahead.
The light grew brighter, forming a massive crack tearing across the void.
"Boom!"
Gu Sheng was hurled out of the crack by a tremendous force, slamming heavily onto a soft grass field.
He greedily breathed the air, the familiar fluctuations of spiritual energy almost bringing tears to his eyes.
It was Xinghong Spirit Domain! He was really back!
Not far away, Ling Xiao was rolling on the grass.
"Hahaha! Buddha I’m back!"
Gu Sheng quietly got up, cautiously observing this mysterious monk.
Today’s events were too strange; he decided to leave quickly while the other was unguarded.
"Master, take care, I shall take my leave."
Gu Sheng cupped his hands in salute and turned to leave.
"Hey!"
Ling Xiao suddenly called out to him, a meaningful smile on his face.
"Leaving just like that? Aren’t you going to thank Buddha for bringing you back?"
Gu Sheng stopped in his tracks, forcing a smile.
"Thank you, Master, for your help, I shall repay you generously one day."
Ling Xiao waved his hand.
"Forget it, just go. However..."
"I have a feeling we’ll meet again soon."
Gu Sheng said no more, swiftly employing his movement technique to disappear into the woods.
Watching Gu Sheng’s departing back, Ling Xiao touched the bump on his bald head, muttering to himself.
"Immortal Seed host... this is getting interesting."
He gazed at the sky, the black pattern on his forehead reappearing.
"Old bald donkeys, Buddha I’m back, and your nightmare is about to begin!"
Gu Sheng traveled alone through the dense forest, dry leaves beneath his feet cracking softly.
The abundant spiritual energy mixed with the familiar scent of vegetation.
No doubt, this was the Ancient Forest on the outskirts of Tianlan Sacred Land, where he started his training three months ago.
"I really came back..."
Gu Sheng touched his chest, where the golden seed was still slowly pulsating.
Glancing back in the direction he came from, that strange monk named Ling Xiao should not be following.
A vast, overwhelming pressure descended from the sky, making Gu Sheng’s hair stand on end, his True Yuan freezing instantly.
A cyan figure landed before Gu Sheng, each step seeming to tread on the veins of heaven and earth, causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly.
"Great Elder?"
Gu Sheng exclaimed in surprise.
The cyan figure landed instantly in front of Gu Sheng, an elder with hair and beard as white as snow.
Surveying Gu Sheng up and down.
"You rascal, where did you run off to?"
Gu Sheng was about to answer when the Great Elder continued.
"You vanished without a trace when you entered the forest, missing for months, the entire sacred land thought you met with misfortune!"
"Months?"
Gu Sheng was astonished.
"But I was only gone for three days..."
The Great Elder’s gaze sharpened.
"Three days? Do you know it’s now late autumn? When you entered the forest, it was still midsummer!"
In that strange world, the flow of time was different from here? He explained.
"Great Elder, I inexplicably entered a strange world, encountering many inexplicable things. It was someone named Ling Xiao who brought me out."
"Ling Xiao?"
The Great Elder was thoughtful.
"Could it be the legendary ’One Flower One World’ secret realm? No wonder... no wonder..."
He shook his head, suddenly becoming serious.
"Let’s set that aside for now. Gu Sheng, you must immediately end your practice and return to Tianlan Sacred Land."
Gu Sheng frowned.
"What happened?"
The Great Elder sighed.
"The people from Supreme Immortal Sect have come again, with the Immortal King."
"Qiankun Venerate King?!"
Gu Sheng’s pupils constricted, his fists clenching involuntarily.
"He dares to come again? Didn’t the Golden Simurgh Heavenly Monarch warn him?"
"The present is different from the past."
The Great Elder’s expression was complex.
"The Tianxuan Divine Girl is about to marry the Realm Son of the Azure Dragon Realm, so they want to break off the engagement with you."
This revelation struck Gu Sheng like a bolt of lightning.
"Break... off the engagement?"
Though the engagement was a political alliance, the sudden breakup still left Gu Sheng feeling humiliated. What made him even angrier was
