After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 302 - 240: Speeding Up the Marriage Partner Selection_2
Chapter 302: Chapter 240: Speeding Up the Marriage Partner Selection_2
As for what lies behind the Barrier, he could not discern it, nor was there any need to peek.
Perhaps it was inside, but it was too risky to enter by himself.
Better to see what lies beneath the architecture and look for an exit.
Of course, before heading over, he wanted to check what the senior brothers had sent him in the Storage Treasure.
With the Barrier here, even if the Storage Treasures had special sensing abilities, they should be shielded.
After a short time.
Gu An returned to where everyone was and found that indeed a huge hole had appeared.
Several buildings were exposed below.
At this moment, everyone was stopped in front of a large gate, feeling that there was something inside.
But no one dared to enter recklessly.
Gu An looked at Huang Yunshan, uncertain if he would suddenly rush in.
After all, there could be good things inside.
Unfortunately, the other party did not enter.
He just went to call for Gu An.
However, Gu An had already arrived.
If the other party went in, Gu An would not have said anything.
If they had the courage to enter, then they should bear any danger themselves.
If they obtained benefits, those would be theirs.
These days, he had not been idle.
"Fellow daoist," Huang Yunshan spoke.
At this moment, others looked at Gu An, many feeling worried.
Fearing that he might resort to killing for the things inside.
Now, to whom this area belonged was no longer important.
As long as one could obtain and hide it, it would basically belong to them.
Of course, it would be even better if there were no survivors.
Gu An looked at the crowd, also unaware of what these people were thinking.
However, he looked at the gate and fell silent for a moment.
Then looked up into the sky.
"What’s wrong?" Huang Yunshan asked.
"People from outside are about to come in," Gu An stated truthfully.
He had collected the small tree, and the power of the Barrier seemed to have weakened a lot.
People outside only needed to put in a little effort to come in.
"Then wouldn’t you check it out?" Huang Yunshan asked.
Gu An stared at the gate, feeling that there was something inside.
But whether it was good or bad, he could not tell.
Now there was no need to take the risk.
He then said to the crowd: "You can go in if you want, and take whatever you get.
If you die in there, you die in there."
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
Huang Yunshan was also somewhat in disbelief.
After a long hesitation, he asked: "Really?"
Gu An nodded.
No matter what opportunity was inside, he could resist the greed.
It wasn’t that he was magnanimous, just that he already had enough good items.
There was no need to covet what others had.
Then he told everyone: "Go in, and if you come out alive, there’s no need to discuss what’s inside."
The crowd fell silent again.
Eventually, Huang Yunshan gritted his teeth and pushed open the door to enter. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
A moment later, he came out.
Others were puzzled, but Gu An was unbothered.
Shan Yuanyong also walked in.
Lin Rou initially wanted to stop him but hesitated and then gave up.
After a moment, Shan Yuanyong also came out.
Lin Rou pondered for a while and then went in.
After a moment, she too came out.
Seeing this, everyone thought there might not be any danger inside.
But in Gu An’s eyes, he saw they had absorbed some not-so-good Qi.
After returning, they would be weak for at least a year and a half.
But what they had obtained was hard to say.
So, what exactly was inside?
Gu An was also not sure.
Apart from Gu An, everyone had gone inside for a trip.
Without exception, each of them had picked up that air.
Their expressions were good.
Just as Gu An hesitated whether to let the Blood Spirit in, suddenly a rumbling sound came from above.
Boom!
Crack!
A crack appeared, and the entire mountain was split open.
Sunlight fell on them.
The long-lost glaring light made their eyes squint.
The immense force also made it hard for them to move.
Even Gu An felt a bit shocked; the power of those strong beings seemed far beyond his own.
It seemed the other party was very attentive.
Then a voice came: "Found it, it’s here."
Gu An sighed with relief internally.
Apparently, he was rescued.
Then he looked at that door again, finally withdrawing his gaze.
What exactly was inside, he did not know.
But not going in was the right choice for him.
This past month and more, he had acquired plenty.
Inside the gate lay unknown dangers; it was best not to get involved.
All he had to do was return and look for fine trees to elevate his cultivation; there was no need to desperately snatch opportunities.
Afterwards, the people from Linghua Valley arrived and immediately escorted the remaining people out.
Regarding that gate, they only took a look and then had it surrounded.
That afternoon.
Gu An met the leader of this mission, Lai Yunlong.
They seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, they were a bit surprised to hear the task was already completed.
Because Gu An had already excavated the building.
Hence, the mission was accomplished.
Since it was completed, naturally he could return to the Sect.
It depended on whether Linghua Sect would let them go.
After all, with the appearance of that gate, anyone could understand what lay beyond.
Did these people go inside?
Furthermore, those chopped trees were still there, they would naturally be curious.
Gu An thought he would have to stay at least two or three days to assist with the investigation.
However, when he proposed returning to the Sect, they immediately released him.
This astonished Gu An greatly.
He later learned that Cangmu Sect had applied pressure on Linghua Valley.
The reason was that their important disciple from the Sect had vanished just like that.
And Linghua Valley did nothing.
They even broke some collaborations.
And the pressure mostly came from Merit Hall.
Gu An had never dreamed that Merit Hall could have such an effect.
The list from Merit Hall seemed more useful than he had anticipated.
If it wasn’t for this, even with the pressure applied, it would only be a little.
It wouldn’t make Linghua Valley so diligent.
Nor would they have been able to leave so easily.
Mid-January.
Gu An returned to the Sect.
On the way, there were no accidents, and the leaders didn’t say much.
They seemed to have gained nothing this time.
But at least the suspects they led were all alive.
Seven people from Gu An’s side died.
But no one asked how.
No one even mentioned it.
Gu An felt deeply moved; the Cultivation World was truly cruel.
These were Golden Core and Primordial Spirit cultivators.
If one day he became such a suspect, perhaps, dying abroad, no one would care.
Some people he knew might be the same.
Like the neighbor who he often greeted; one day he just didn’t return, knowing he went on a mission, ended up staying there.
That’s life’s unpredictability.
When back at the Sect, the flying boat went straight to Law Enforcement Hall.
He handed over the mission and received the rewards.
And casually registered that he had returned.
Leaving the Law Enforcement Hall, Gu An walked slowly.
This outing had left him somewhat reflective.
At a crossroads, he paused, eventually heading towards Heavenly Suspension Peak.
Along the way, he heard some rumors.
Merit Hall learned that someone from the list had disappeared in another Sect and immediately collaborated with Law Enforcement Hall to pressure that Sect.
Even directly notifying the Outer Peak and breaking off some deals.
Gu An was astonished.
Merit Hall was really going all out.
Having Merit Hall for support really adds a lot of safety.
However, if he wanted to use his Merit to exchange for Cultivation Techniques, he would have to drop down from the list.
For a moment, Gu An felt reluctant.
If he stayed on the list, many in the Sect wouldn’t dare act against him readily.
But staying on without advancing was unlikely.
The list’s value was someone else’s power.
While cultivation was his own power.
Especially if he advanced again, that would be Returning to Void.
What realm was Returning to Void?
He had never seen such disciples yet.
Refining God and Returning to Void, there should be quite a few such disciples on the mountain, but if they were young and reached this realm, most likely they were Direct Disciples.
If he reached this realm, at the mountain base, Outer Peak, he would almost be an invincible existence.
Returning to Void probably didn’t exist at the mountain base.
Outer Peak was hard to say.
But even if there were, they would be extremely few.
Returning to his dwelling, Gu An saw the noodles swimming with small fish and shrimp, then threw some peanuts in.
The noodles excitedly rushed over to eat.
Gu An just watched, continuing to throw more after it finished eating.
After a long time, the originally excited noodles suddenly sank into the water.
Then turned belly up, spouting white foam from its mouth.
Seeing this, Gu An returned to his room.
He needed to sort out Si Wuye and the others’ Storage Treasures.
But before he could start, a cry of surprise came from outside: "Did the noodles just die?"
Chu Meng.
Gu An was somewhat surprised; she arrived quite early.
