91: Above the Emperor Realm lies the Three Origin Realm!
"A world full of Death Qi? Buried?"
Hearing An Zhiyu's muddled voice, Gu Qingchen raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.
He tilted his head slightly, his gaze falling upon An Zhiyu's face, flushed with intoxication, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
Just as he was about to ask for details, he saw her also close her eyes in a daze.
Her long hair spread out like a waterfall, a few strands gently resting on her cheeks, trembling slightly with her even breathing.
"As expected of the drunken immortal brew."
Seeing this, Gu Qingchen shook his head with a smile.
An Zhiyu's strength was not bad; even if she drank ten jars of ordinary spirit wine, she wouldn't get drunk.
But this drunken immortal brew knocked her out with just one sip.
Even he himself felt a sense of ethereal lightness at this moment.
For some reason, he had a premonition that consuming the great reincarnation fruit now and then accepting the Legacy of the Reincarnation Immortal Canon might yield the best results.
Gu Qingchen chose to trust his intuition.
He took out the great reincarnation fruit, which emitted a faint divine glow in his palm, with layers of six paths phantoms continuously revolving, as if containing endless Reincarnation power.
The moment it touched his lips, a profound and mysterious Reincarnation Origin power erupted.
The entire Reincarnation Immortal Palace seemed to sense this power; the Formation within the main hall suddenly lit up, and the boundless star chart on the ten-thousand-meter dome transformed into eighty-four thousand Dao patterns, descending from the Void Realm.
Those runes shimmered with brilliant light, as if stars were falling, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.
The next moment, Gu Qingchen's Domain instantly unfolded.
The Thirty-Three Heavens, the Eighteen Layers of Hell, and the boundless desolate continent, as well as the boundless Exquisite World, all slowly revealed the phantom of the six paths reincarnation plate.
The Reincarnation plate was enormous, its surface carved with ancient runes, each radiating a heart-pounding power.
On the six paths reincarnation plate, raging karmic fires ignited.
Within the flames, the myriad forms of sentient beings appeared.
There were elderly individuals lingering at the Bridge of Helplessness, newborn infants crying in the Pool of Rebirth, and even remnant souls clad in Emperor robes bowing to him in the fire... The myriad dao treasure tree grew wildly, its branches piercing through the Thirty-Three Heavens, directly into the Chaos Sea, and its roots deeply embedded in the Primordial Qi beneath the Eighteen Layers of Hell.
On the treasure tree, within the ten Dao fruits formed by the Great Emperor Dao bodies, faint Great Emperor phantoms emerged.
They chanted Emperor scriptures, their voices deep and solemn, integrating their life's Dao into the Domain.
"This is... his Domain?"
At the edge of the main hall, Su Anning watched the scene before her, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes.
This was too different.
Although she hadn't seen many people's Domains, it definitely shouldn't look like this.
All-encompassing, like a real world!
"No wonder his combat power is so strong. Is this your special quality?"
Su Anning murmured, her heart for the first time filled with curiosity about Gu Qingchen's identity.
What kind of background could possess such terrifying foundation?
Could he be an Emperor Child from a hidden Great Emperor family?
...Gu Qingchen was oblivious to Su Anning's curiosity.
At this moment, in his Sea of Consciousness, the Reincarnation Immortal Canon, transformed into a golden jade scroll, slowly unfolded.
The jade scroll emitted a faint golden light, each page carved with ancient runes, as if containing endless wisdom and power.
In an instant, a magnificent Dao sound resounded throughout his Sea of Consciousness.
"Dao gives rise to tribulation, tribulation gives rise to dust, dust gives rise to delusion, delusion gives rise to destruction. Observing three thousand Karma threads across the star river, one realizes 'I am not I'; seeing a hundred generations of withered bones transform into green lotuses, one finally comprehends 'tribulation is not tribulation'…"
The Reincarnation Immortal Canon was a supreme scripture surpassing even Heavenly Emperor scriptures. Even with Gu Qingchen's Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability, it took him half a month of meditation in this hall to merely get started.
He originally Cultivated the Xuantian Emperor Scripture of the Xuantian Holy Land, created by Great Emperor Xuantian, and only Saints, Saintesses, and Holy Lords were qualified to Cultivate it.
As an Emperor-level scripture, the Xuantian Emperor Scripture contained boundless profundities.
It included not only Cultivation Techniques but also Divine Abilities and forbidden arts.
However, it was incompatible with the Dao intent Gu Qingchen had comprehended, so its displayed power was limited, not much different from the Divine Ability he casually manifested with the Myriad Transformation Sacred Art.
This time, the process of switching to the Reincarnation Immortal Canon was incredibly smooth.
Gu Qingchen even felt that this scripture was tailor-made for him.
"I have a special Physique with Reincarnation attributes. According to Revered Master, this Physique is also very powerful. Coupled with the Dao intent I've comprehended and the Dao Domain I've condensed, both are related to Reincarnation, so it's normal that I'm suitable for Cultivating this Reincarnation Immortal Canon..."
Gu Qingchen's distracting thoughts flashed and vanished, then he continued to focus on his comprehension.
At this moment, An Zhiyu and Xian Yu finally woke up in a daze.
"Eh?"
An Zhiyu rubbed her eyes and surprisingly saw Gu Qingchen already Cultivating.
She mumbled curiously, "Did I get drunk and pass out? It shouldn't have been long, right? How come husband has already started Cultivating?"
"Not too long."
At the edge of the hall, Su Anning shook her head at her: "Only half a month."
"What?"
Hearing this, An Zhiyu's beautiful eyes widened instantly, filled with disbelief: "How much did you say?
Half a month?
Impossible, my alcohol tolerance is definitely not that bad."
She only took one sip, how could she have been unconscious for half a month?
"Mhm mhm!"
Beside her, Xian Yu also nodded, her small face full of seriousness.
She just sniffed it, she wasn't drunk!
Seeing this, Su Anning's lips curved slightly, revealing a smile, but she quickly restrained it.
After a long while, An Zhiyu finally accepted her one-sip-and-out state, then leaned over to Su Anning's side.
"Anning, how did you come to this Immortal Palace?"
Hearing the question, a hint of solitude flashed in Su Anning's eyes.
Her gaze lowered slightly, as if lost in some memory.
"When I was being hunted by the Demon Race and had nowhere to go, I fell into a Void Realm crack and arrived before the Three Lives Road."
"Is that so..."
For a moment, An Zhiyu didn't know how to speak.
She could tell that Su Anning's fate line in her youth wasn't good, and she was afraid that asking further would touch upon some taboo.
"It's alright, at least I survived, didn't I?"
Su Anning smiled lightly, a hint of determination flashing in her clear eyes: "People say there's no dawn at the end of eternal night, but there are always those who hold a dying ember, waiting for an impossible daylight.
I don't need to wait; I will seize the eternal daylight myself!"
"Anning..."
Hearing this, An Zhiyu's last remaining trace of wariness towards Su Anning finally completely disappeared.
She reached out and took Su Anning's hand, gently patted her own chest, and said firmly, "Don't worry, in your world, there will be no more eternal night. My husband and I can be your sun!"
Hearing this, Su Anning's heart warmed.
Her Three Lives Pupil saw incredibly sincere emotions... Time flowed by.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
After this period of Cultivation, Gu Qingchen finally successfully switched to Cultivating the Reincarnation Immortal Canon.
Although his cultivation Realm had not improved, his combat power had become much stronger again.
If he were to challenge the combat power trial again, it would undoubtedly be much easier. Even without the defection of the Exquisite Heavenly Emperor, he could still sweep through ten young Great Emperors of the same Realm, defeating and suppressing them one by one.
"Hmm?"
After Cultivating, Gu Qingchen opened his eyes and saw An Zhiyu and Su Anning holding hands, laughing and talking.
"When did your relationship become so good?"
"Hehe, husband, don't worry about the Fairy's business."
An Zhiyu smiled triumphantly, pulling Su Anning to Gu Qingchen's side.
"Husband, have you already received the Legacy of the Reincarnation Immortal Canon?"
"Yes."
Gu Qingchen nodded, quite satisfied: "The time spent on this conversion exceeded my expectations, but it was definitely worth it."
"It seems the Reincarnation Immortal Canon is very powerful."
"Indeed."
Seeing that An Zhiyu seemed interested, Gu Qingchen briefly introduced: "The Reincarnation Immortal Canon is a Cultivation Technique that surpasses the Heavenly Emperor level. It also contains many powerful Divine Abilities and forbidden arts, such as Nine Tribulation Revolve Light, Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, Three Thousand Karmic Fire Body, and the six paths furnace, among others."
"A Cultivation Technique that surpasses the Heavenly Emperor level?"
Hearing this, both An Zhiyu and Su Anning were somewhat surprised.
Especially Su Anning.
She blinked, asking curiously, "Is there a stronger Realm above the Heavenly Emperor?"
"Naturally. According to the Reincarnation Immortal Canon, it is said that above the Three Emperor Realm is the Three Origin Realm."
"Three Origin Realm?"
Even An Zhiyu was hearing this term for the first time.
She widened her beautiful, sparkling eyes curiously, waiting for Gu Qingchen to continue explaining.
"Yes."
Gu Qingchen smiled: "The Three Origin Realm consists of the Origin, Root Origin, and Prime Origin Realms. Practitioners in this Realm are generally respectfully referred to as 'Lord of So-and-So,' such as the Lord of Black Calamity and the Lord of Heart Demons."
"I see."
The two girls nodded gently.
"Oh, right."
Gu Qingchen seemed to remember something and turned his gaze to An Zhiyu: "Zhiyu, before you fainted, you seemed to say something about a world full of Death Qi, 'buried,' and so on.
What exactly did that mean?"
