255: Dispute between the two worlds, Xiang Ping reappears

The 150,200th year.

Gu Ziyan, upon returning to the Gu Family, was not detected as abnormal by anyone in the Gu Family.

On the contrary, due to her rapidly increasing cultivation, she received extreme attention from the Gu Family.

The Gu Family not only provided her with a large amount of resources every month, but her status also rose steadily, and she was promoted to Elder in just a few years.

You, too, by virtue of your 'Disciple' relationship with her, received a lot of care from the Gu Family and an Immortal Cave located on a Spiritual Vein.

This was not the end.

Since the Gu Family was an ancient aristocratic family, its foundation was extremely profound.

You not only obtained a large number of secrets through Gu Ziyan but also successfully acquired one of the Gu Family's three great Cultivation Techniques, the Heaven Mang Extreme Dao Technique.

This Cultivation Technique could directly lead to the Dao Tribulation Realm and increase a Cultivator's Divine Soul power.

You quietly began to switch Cultivation Techniques.

The 151,000th year.

The biggest difference for a Cultivator after Breaking Through to the Dao Palace Realm is the emergence of a palace in their Qi Sea.

He can nurture various things.

Such as Heaven And Earth Treasure, Spirit Pills, and Sharp Weapons.

Although you currently possessed many treasures, after much deliberation, you ultimately decided to find a top-tier Sharp Weapon to assist you in battle.

You told Gu Ziyan about this.

And she, through her Elder status, easily obtained an excellent quality Immortal Sword from the Gu Family.

The sword's body was as black as ink, and its blade was incredibly sharp.

The hilt was carved with mountains and rivers.

The sword tassel was made from the black fur of a Yao Beast.

Just one glance at it made others tremble with its majestic Qi.

"Truly a fine sword."

You named it 'Tun Jue' and placed it in your Dao Palace to begin nurturing it.

The 152,000th year.

Having just emerged from your seclusion, you noticed that everyone in the Gu Family looked hurried.

You immediately summoned Gu Ziyan and asked what changes had recently occurred in the Gu Family.

"Reporting to Master, the Taiyin Realm and the Taiyi Realm have entered into full-scale war."

"Oh?!"

You were first stunned.

Because, in your impression, the faction Lin Chen belonged to was the most powerful existence in the Taiyin Realm.

And the two strongest Cultivators among them had already been slain by you, so where did they get the courage to go to war with the Taiyi Realm now?

As if sensing your confusion, Gu Ziyan immediately began to explain to you.

It turned out that a thousand years ago, an extremely powerful Cultivator suddenly appeared in the Taiyin Realm.

He unified the entire Taiyin Realm with lightning speed.

Then, he gathered all high-level Cultivators and established a force named the Taiyin Sect.

Because this person's strength was too formidable, the Cultivators of the Taiyin Realm willingly submitted to him.

They were united in their efforts, launching multiple attacks on the Taiyi Realm, and quickly annexed several Taiyi Realm Earth Domains.

Now, of the Taiyi Realm's thirty-seven domains, only thirty-two remain.

"No wonder those Taiyin Realm Cultivators went back…"

You nodded slightly.

But you didn't take the matter to heart.

Because, for you, it didn't matter whether the owner of this land was a Taiyi Realm Cultivator or a Taiyin Realm Cultivator.

As long as it didn't interfere with your cultivation, even if they turned the world upside down, it had nothing to do with you.

Three hundred springs and autumns passed in a flash.

When you ended your cultivation again, the Gu Family was still the same as it was three hundred years ago.

All the Cultivators were hurrying, running back and forth.

However, compared to last time, there seemed to be far fewer of them.

You summoned Gu Ziyan again and inquired about the situation of the two-Realm war.

She told you that the war between the two Realms was escalating.

And now, the Taiyi Realm had lost two more domains.

This was not because the Taiyi Realm was weak.

On the contrary, in terms of overall strength, the Taiyi Realm was still somewhat stronger.

However, these people all had factional ties behind them, so they inevitably calculated when making a move.

Compared to the united Taiyin Realm, they were naturally at a disadvantage.

You nodded gently.

This result was also within your expectations.

After all, from your perspective, when the high-level Cultivators of the Taiyi Realm previously clashed with the high-level Cultivators of the Taiyin Realm, they were slightly outmatched.

Although you had slain two people from the Taiyin Realm, it now had an even stronger individual.

And if this person also joined the battle, it wouldn't be long before the Taiyi Realm would show signs of collapse.

"I still hope the Taiyi Realm can hold on for a while longer, at least until the next Fatal Strike can be condensed…"

You sighed softly, then began to cultivate on your own.

The 155,000th year.

You awoke again.

However, this time it wasn't the end of your seclusion, but rather you were forcibly awakened by Gu Ziyan.

"Master, we need to prepare to evacuate."

"The Taiyin Realm has sent a wave of Cultivators directly towards the Gu Family, and their target… is likely you!"

"Me?!"

Hearing this news, your heart was startled.

You immediately asked Gu Ziyan about the current war situation between the two Realms.

It turned out that in the following days, the Taiyi Realm Cultivators also realized that continuing like this would inevitably lead to destruction.

So, they cooperated sincerely, united, and jointly resisted the Taiyin Realm.

Due to their deeper foundation, they quickly halted the Taiyin Realm's offensive and successfully reclaimed some lost territory.

However, just as the two Realms were in a stalemate, the Taiyin Realm actually sent a team of high-level Cultivators directly towards the Imperial Spirit Domain where the Gu Family was located.

Gu Ziyan immediately realized that the visitors meant no good, so she came to inform you as soon as she learned of this news.

"That's not right…"

"Those Taiyin Realm Cultivators didn't even dare to make a move against me when I slew Lin Chen, so how dare they come with such a large force now?"

Your heart was filled with countless doubts.

But after much deliberation, you ultimately decided to avoid their sharpness and go to the safer Central Sacred Domain.

You had Gu Ziyan take you on a Swift Steps journey.

And during this process, you memorized everything between the Central Sacred Domain and the Imperial Spirit Domain, so that you could use Celestial Travel to escape.

The 156,000th year.

The Taiyin Realm's Cultivator team began to withdraw after causing a stir in the Imperial Spirit Domain.

Through Gu Ziyan's connections, you quickly learned the appearance of those Taiyin Realm Cultivators from the Gu Family.

However, what you didn't expect was that Xiang Ping was also in this team.

And according to the oral accounts of the Gu Family Cultivators, Xiang Ping's status was extremely high, as if everyone was working for him.
