A warm red light slowly emerged around Gu, and a gray-red mixed golden core appeared above his head, plunging him into a wondrous state.
Breakthrough.
Ye Youluo's lips parted slightly in surprise; she hadn't expected Gu to seize the opportunity to break through in such a situation. But even if he reached the Nascent Soul Realm, what difference would it make? Could he stop the tide of beasts from Yan Dong? Could he ensure that the elders who entered would leave unscathed? Could he resolve the crisis in Yan Dong and the World of Mortals?
At that point, it was futile to hope for anything. Not only was she, Ye Youluo, unable to exert any influence, but she also wished for the space-time markers of Cosmic Plaza to be erased. Even if Tian Xian and Zhuo Fan had not managed to turn the tide, Coco had also failed.
In Tiandong City of Yan Dong, there was no longer any strength capable of resisting the Pseudo-Artifacts. No matter how hard those outside tried, it was destined to be in vain.
Ye Youluo did not move against him. At that moment, her surroundings were truly shrouded in darkness. The river of fate had reached its end; guided by the River of Fate, Ye Youluo understood that whatever Jie Donglai did was irrelevant to her. Since that was the case, why should she try to stop Gu's breakthrough? Moreover, everything seemed predestined. Even if she couldn't see Gu's fate, what could she do about it?
The golden core slowly expanded, and a small baby, no larger than a palm, appeared above Gu's head. The gray-red color transformed entirely into Pale Pink.
Ye Youluo knew that this genius from the Cultivation World, who had been hard to find for millennia, had once again overcome a significant hurdle. The recent fusion of gray and red spiritual powers represented a combination of two opposing forces. Although Chaotic Spiritual Power could merge with other types of spiritual energy, absorbing completely opposite Light Spirit Power still posed risks due to the potential conflict between the two energies.
Moreover, the color after fusion being Pale Pink indicated that Gu had not chosen Chaotic Spiritual Power to merge with Light Spirit Power; instead, he had perfectly combined both types of energy into a new and potent force.
The small baby opened its eyes and scanned Ye Youluo's body with a spiritual gaze. Gu Zhi realized at that moment that he had finally ascended to the Nascent Soul Realm. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to swirl around him, allowing him to communicate with it. The deep gray gas that continuously sought to corrode his spiritual power must be the Decayed Aura from Shadow Tower Forest—a place filled with Wraiths and death—resulting in such a dense Decayed Aura while simultaneously restricting any spirit entering Shadow Tower Forest.
The Primordial Dao ultimately did not deny death.
From the moment Ye Youluo witnessed Gu's breakthrough, she knew her previous speculations about Tian Dong Da's forces were all wrong. Chen Taiyi was dead; the Primordial Dao Foundation was also lost in Gu's legacies. Thus, when Gu broke through his realm, he did not absorb any external spiritual power. This formed the foundation for his successful breakthrough. Coupled with the fusion of opposing energies and his understanding of Gu Cuo's techniques, it seemed that even Transcendent Practitioners like Gu Cuo could hold their ground for quite some time; however, I don't deny that he chose to end things swiftly.
In the past, every time Gu faced a Transcendent Practitioner, the battle would end within the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. Even when he encountered Xiao Zhang, he managed to defeat him swiftly using One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, taking advantage of Xiao Zhang's moment of vulnerability with the Eastern Three Talents Sword Formation. After all, even though a Golden Core Cultivator could traverse the heavens and earth, they were still at a disadvantage compared to a Transcendent Practitioner. Any slight edge could become Gu's weakness; despite having two Dao Foundations to support him, Gu could not prevail in a prolonged battle against a Transcendent Practitioner. For Gu, every attack had to be executed with full force, like a large vat with limited water—once poured out, he had to wait until it was filled again before launching another full-scale assault. In previous battles, perhaps there hadn't been much at stake, but ever since the Sky East Tournament, Gu had given his all each time. The spiritual energy he could store externally was becoming increasingly insufficient.
If he were to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, he would not only have more external spiritual energy but also other significant enhancements. However, for Gu, there seemed to be no greater improvement in other aspects; rather, his mental strength had grown stronger, and he could faintly sense Yoyo's presence.
It seemed they were destined to have this confrontation; otherwise, he wouldn't let him go.
In truth, I shouldn't have underestimated Liu Dong. My existence was perhaps the greatest contribution to the World of Mortals since I was the one closest to transcending in Tian Di Dong.
Thus, I intentionally lured him in, seeking his attention for my own purposes and for the ridiculous morals of those on the Light Path. I wanted to erase the marks from outside so that he could remain there—unbeknownst to him—either killed by those beasts or exposed by the Elders who came to seal them. Or perhaps I would personally resolve this troublesome matter.
He didn't know that no one could predict my future or control my fate. Unlike him, who was destined for something greater, I was without destiny; my life and death were of no concern to him.
As Ye Youluo took out the shattered Black-Red Chess Piece from after dealing with the Mountain Giant and handed it over to Gu, he grasped Ye Youluo's ankle. Looking into Ye Youluo's pitch-black eyes devoid of any light, he realized that at this moment, she probably saw nothing—only the deepest darkness.
I must have been quite beautiful if I let my hair down.
Is that so?
Ye Youluo smiled as her leg pressed down on the broken chess piece resting on Gu's leg. The weight forced Gu to bend down slightly; he had no choice but to circulate his spiritual energy to regain his normal posture.
Why is it so heavy?
