Chapter 1127: Past Events in the Lower Realm
Gu Heng and Qin Yiyao left the lakeside pavilion and strolled slowly along the winding, beautiful paths within the Imperial Preceptor's residence.
The mansion remained quiet, with only the rustling of the wind through the treetops and the occasional chirping of birds in the distance.
"I heard that our lower realm is already your private territory?"
If Gu Heng had any questions for anyone, they would be about his old buddies.
Although he's only known Gu Heng for a short time, most of his memories are from the lower-dimensional Origin Realm, as are the people he knows. This inevitably leads to some special feelings between them.
We should at least show some concern.
"Yes, I know. We must always take care of those whom our master trusts."
Qin Yiyao twitched the corner of her mouth, her tone seemingly proud.
"You really understand me."
Gu Heng patted her head.
Actually, this little girl is no longer a child, but the habit of patting her head is definitely not going away.
"Otherwise, how could I be Master's only good disciple?"
Her smile was as bright as a flower.
This isn't really worth mentioning.
After all, the Immortal Dao Civilization governs hundreds of thousands of Origin Realms. Among the six Outer Heavens, apart from the Eternal Heaven which does not govern any lower-level Origin Realms, the other five Outer Heavens control at least 100,000 Origin Realms each!
As the most outstanding young generation in the Jade Emperor Palace, let alone a mere barren source realm, the Jade Emperor Palace could afford to reward him with ten or even a hundred.
But she had no interest in controlling the lower planes.
Bringing that Origin Realm under his control was merely a form of insurance, since an Origin Realm with only a hundred ascended cultivators since its inception was hardly worth noting.
It's too poor and pathetic; even those "bandits" who specialize in plundering the Origin Realm wouldn't bother to give it a second glance.
Perhaps that's why the master hid there after the defeat.
Such a dilapidated little place, those big shots at the top probably wouldn't even pay attention to it.
of course.
This wishful thinking was eventually exposed.
"So, we can go back anytime?"
"Of course it is possible, but that Origin Realm is on the edge of the Immortal Dao Civilization's territory, which is very far away."
Qin Yiyao walked half a step to Gu Heng's side, her voice soft and gentle.
She had lost much interest in that lower-dimensional source world.
Master may be nostalgic, but she doesn't feel much about it. After all, it's a small place. It's okay to have some fond memories, but it's not good to stagnate. The path of cultivation is long and arduous. How can one keep focusing on such a small place?
But on the other hand, it's probably because Master can no longer move forward that he's so nostalgic.
"How's it going down there?"
Gu Heng asked, "Has anything major happened after I left?"
"No."
Qin Yiyao smiled confidently and said, "After Master's accident, I didn't stay idle. Instead, I quickly integrated the forces of the entire Origin Realm with Xiaobai and the others."
"Besides the Xuantian Realm, forces from six other realms have also successively pledged allegiance to the Juetian Pavilion."
Gu Heng still remembered that Xi Tong had told him that there were seven realms in that Origin Realm. Apart from the Xuan Tian Realm, which was destroyed by human intervention, the other six realms were still intact. Not only were their paths to enlightenment unbroken, but their development was also quite good.
Unfortunately, he never had the chance to see those places.
Although there's no need to deliberately broaden one's horizons, the source realms under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Dao Civilization are basically not much different from the Immortal Dao Civilization itself.
"The forces in the other six realms also suffered misfortune."
Qin Yiyao sighed: "Those cultivators from the upper realm who came to hunt down Master are all close to the Creation Realm. Although they are nothing here, they are invincible in the lower realm of Origin Realm."
"Fortunately, Master has killed them all."
Hear the words.
Gu Heng's expression also turned somewhat unpleasant.
Bringing up this old story again will inevitably make me angrier the more I think about it.
"We didn't kill them all; we still didn't do a good enough job."
He hadn't forgotten how he and Qin Yiyao had been separated for over a decade—wasn't it all because of those guys?
It's quite funny, really. He's a formidable enemy of the entire era, yet those civilizations above him want to send a bunch of minions who aren't even at the Creation Realm to mess with him. Have they gotten too arrogant, or are they too weak to fight back?
Although he was indeed somewhat unable to lift the knife, it was a bit excessive for his old rivals to underestimate him like that.
People shouldn't be treated with such contempt!
But now that I think about it...
It's hard to say they didn't succeed, isn't it?
At least those two from the magic civilization and the wizard civilization were indeed careful, and they actually sent him to the Epoch Graveyard!
That godforsaken place is no place for a human to stay.
In other words, he was lucky. Firstly, he had the system by his side, and secondly, he caught a good time. The entire Tomb Keeper organization was planning a desperate gamble to launch a heavy attack on the tomb beasts of the Epoch Cemetery. In the end, he also unexpectedly found the ruins of the Ancestral Sage Civilization and received help from an ancient sage, successfully escaping...
Ultimately, although Gu Heng no longer believed in chance and luck, he felt that he still relied heavily on luck.
Any one of the above points is crucial for a perfect hand.
If even one is missing, everything will probably be over.
He will probably end up like those "prisoners" who were locked up early, wasting his time in the Epoch Cemetery with the corpses of gods until the end of the world.
I am afraid.
Luck is a really hard thing to predict.
Or perhaps his former epochal foe foresaw this and made ample preparations and contingency plans, so that he could still escape if anything unexpected happened.
Did he really have that kind of brain back then?
Gu Heng was unaware.
All I can say is that if they hadn't lost when they were fighting seven opponents, they wouldn't be where they are today.
In the end, it's all the same old story, which is boring.
"What happens after that?"
"After the integration, the Jue Tian Pavilion passed on the cultivation method of the 'Epoch Immortal Scripture' to all its members, as well as cultivators whose cultivation level and aptitude were qualified to read this book. One year and two months after our master disappeared, the five of us ascended together."
"However, since we are going to ascend to the upper realm, we must settle all the old scores in the lower realm."
A cold glint flashed in Qin Yiyao's eyes. "All those enemies and demons who had clashed with Master have been wiped out, not one of them left alive."
Gu Heng paused slightly, then simply nodded.
He knew that the little girl had her own methods, and he also knew that in that dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, being soft-hearted often meant endless trouble.
Well done, but I guess it doesn't need much praise.
For Qin Yiyao, these things were probably as simple as drinking water.
When I first heard Xiaobai's account, I only briefly mentioned it. Now, hearing her say it again, I feel even more relaxed and at ease, as if it were nothing special.
Even Gu Heng himself had no mind to think about the grudges he had caused in the past.
Compared to the group of guys he had offended long ago, those who had grudges against him back in the Xuan Tian Realm were simply not worth mentioning.
Too cheap.
