Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 255 Gu Jiting appears, in the crack of the top!

"Where is...where?"

When the figure appeared, confusion immediately appeared on his face. He could feel that he was still in the inner world, but...

"This place seems to be condensed by the power of the soul. It's quite strange. It's a bit like..."

"what!"

His body trembled and he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Could it be that I haven't escaped yet and am still in that prison?"

But when he looked carefully, he found that this place seemed different. Although it was equally exquisite, it was a little thin and very empty.

"Well……"

"If not, then where exactly is this place?"

He looked around blankly and muttered to himself in confusion.

At this moment……

"Ok?"

On Nasen Island, Xia Ye, Xue Fan, Qu Ying and Lao Ma, who were celebrating the festival, were all stunned at the same time. They looked at each other with strange expressions.

Not only them, but even Duanmu Ying who was far away in Longhu Mountain also frowned, wondering why this "Six Paths of Reincarnation" had just been established... and there was an abnormality.

Without any hesitation, Nathan came here, and Xia Ye and the other three left immediately, then entered the interior at the same time and began to check.

And when they saw that there was a figure floating in this "Ashura Road", and that it was not just a spirit but a person with a complete life, they could not help but be stunned.

"This guy is..."

The four of them immediately moved closer to take a look and discovered that the man seemed to be an old man, wearing a somewhat worn-out suit, with his white hair combed back meticulously.

What made them curious was that the rest of the old man looked old except for his eyes, which shone with a strange brilliance and had a bright gaze. His pupils were as deep as the abyss and the sea, and they were all-encompassing, as if they contained everything in the world.

"Ok?"

"Could it be..."

Seeing this image and feeling the power of the other party, Xia Ye's eyes narrowed and he suddenly had some guesses in his mind.

In order to verify it, he showed up without hesitation and bowed to the other party:
"Excuse me, who are you and why are you trespassing in my forbidden area?"

"what?"

Seeing someone coming suddenly, the old man looked over immediately and was shocked after taking a look.

"Sure enough... I really haven't escaped yet... I'm still in prison!"

"Prison?"

Xia Ye frowned, not knowing what he meant, but seeing that he was suddenly frightened and at a loss, he hurried to comfort him.

"Don't panic, sir. This is not a prison, but..."

He paused, feeling that he couldn't reveal it until he found out the other party's identity.

"It's not a prison? How can there be a top if it's not a prison? Don't lie to me!"

But the other party shook his head and flew back, wanting to escape.

However, this is Xia Ye's territory, and now it has been closed. Even if he escapes, where can he go? He will only run into obstacles everywhere.

But in the process of hitting a wall, Xia Ye also discovered something strange. This person seemed to have some special ability that allowed him to cross space, but because he was weak at the moment, he was unable to cross the barrier of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation".

"Across space..."

"Ah."

In this way, Xia Ye was basically certain. After all, he had heard Zhang Huaiyi and the others mention it. He stepped forward again and saluted respectfully:

"The senior should be Senior Gu Jiting, right? I, Xia Ye, am friends with Senior Huaiyi, Senior Ruanfeng, Senior Zhou Sheng, etc. You don't have to worry."

"what?"

"How many of them do you know?"

Upon hearing this, the old man finally stopped running, turned around, and looked around with doubtful eyes.

"So, the senior is really Senior Gu?"

In this way, Xia Ye was completely certain.

"I heard from Senior Huaiyi and Senior Zhousheng that you have been missing for many years and have not contacted them."

"Years?"

Gu Jiting was stunned.

"What year is it now?"

"Now……"

Xia Ye narrowed his eyes, as if he had noticed something, and responded immediately.

“It is January 2017, 1, which is New Year’s Eve!”

“What? 2017!!!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Jiting could no longer remain calm.

"I was only imprisoned for a few months at most. How come more than 20 years have passed in the blink of an eye?"

"This……"

"How about you look in the mirror?"

Xia Ye's mind moved, and a mirror appeared in his hand. Twenty years have passed, and Gu Jiting's appearance must have aged and changed. It will be clear at a glance.

“This this this?!”

Seeing that he looked more than 20 years older in the mirror, Gu Jiting was shocked. He realized that even with his "Daluo Dongguan" ability to see through the world, he had no sense of the passing of time and the fading of his own lifespan.

This terrified him!
"If that's the case, if I continue to stay in there for a while longer, not only will there be no hope of reaching the sky, but I might even die and turn into dry bones!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt scared and couldn't help but breathe heavily.

moment……

When he finally calmed down, Xia Ye bowed:

"Senior, I believe you must have been through a lot. Why don't we leave here and return to reality so you can take a rest first?"

"Of course, if you want, I can take you to Senior Huaiyi and his family right away. They are also reuniting now, and they should be the only one missing... you."

"them……"

"Yes, I have to go find them right away. Your name is Xia Ye, right? Xia Jueding, then I'll trouble you!"

Gu Jiting was immediately excited when he heard this, and didn't care about anything else. It was obvious that he wanted to believe it.

"Senior Gu, you are too polite. Just call me Xia Ye. Let's go now."

Seeing that his emotions had finally stabilized, Xia Ye nodded, then raised his hand, wrapped his body with the innate qi, and left the inner scene.

After returning to Nasen Island, Xia Ye said a few words to Qu Ying and the others, and without letting Gu Jiting go, he turned into innate Qi and flew away.

In a short while, he arrived at Longhu Mountain and found a small house on the back mountain. The house was brightly lit and there were several figures in the window.

Knock knock knock!
After putting Gu Jiting down, Xia Ye stepped forward and knocked on the door immediately:

"Seniors, it's me. I brought someone to you."

"Hmm? Xia Ye? Did you bring anyone with you?"

The group was drinking happily when they saw this and were startled. Then they opened the door out of curiosity.

"Third brother! Nineteenth brother!"

As soon as the door opened, Gu Jiting saw Zhou Sheng and Zhang Huaiyi at the front. He immediately rushed forward and gave them a hug, which stunned them for a moment.

"Ok?"

"thirty!!!"

Two seconds later, the two men reacted.

"Thirty (Brother Thirty)? You finally showed up?"

When they saw that the person coming was Gu Jiting, the others, Ruan Feng, Duanmu Ying, Feng Tianyang and Xu Xin, were all stunned, and then looked surprised.

"what?"

"wrong!"

Bang!
However, the next second, when Gu Jiting saw Duanmu Ying opposite him, he glared at them, immediately pushed Zhou Sheng and Zhang Huaiyi away, and then stepped back.

"Thirty? What are you doing?"

"You can't fool me, this is an illusion! Twenty-sister is obviously dead, how could she appear here!" He shouted loudly, revealing a crazy look again.

"This……"

Hearing this, several people looked at each other, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, but also finding it interesting.

And they also realized that this guy had disappeared for more than 20 years and must have had some extraordinary experiences during that time. After all, in terms of willpower, this guy was the best among them, and it was not easy to force him to this point.

then……

Snapped!
While he was still weak, Duanmu Ying appeared in front of him in a flash and grabbed his wrist.

"Little Sanshi, I know you must have suffered a lot over the years, and your life is in danger. Don't worry, I'm here to help you!"

"no, do not want!"

Upon seeing this, Gu Jiting tried to struggle immediately, but he only felt a very familiar stream of true energy coming from his wrist. Then he felt sore all over and had no strength left, losing his last bit of resistance.

then……

"Thirty, don't worry, you are really back. As for the matter about Twenty... we will tell you after she cures you." Zhou Sheng comforted him.

Surrounded by the crowd, he was carried back to the house and placed on Zhang Huaiyi's bed. Duanmu Ying immediately used her "Shuangquan Hand" to start the examination.

"Um……"

In a short while, the inspection was completed and Duanmu Ying felt relieved.

"He is fine. He just consumed too much energy and was mentally tense for a long time. With his current level of cultivation, he only needs to rest and recover, and with some methods to calm his mind, he will recover naturally."

Of course, this was just an ordinary treatment. With her "double hands", there was no need to go through so much trouble. She just used red light in one hand and blue light in the other, and started the rapid treatment with both hands.

soon……

Duanmu Ying withdrew his hand, and Gu Jiting finally calmed down. After his spirit was calmed and his emotions were no longer agitated, he regained his composure.

"Second, twenty-sister, it's really you!"

At this moment, the "Daluo Cave Observation" started to work, and he could immediately see everything around him clearly, confirming that it was all real, and Duanmu Ying was indeed alive.

"Of course it's me, haha!"

Seeing this, Duanmu Ying smiled for a moment, then turned around, took a new bowl, poured a bowl of wine, and handed it to him.

"No matter what happened to you before, since you are here, drink the wine first!"

"Hehe, yes!"

When the others saw this, they immediately brought their own wine bowls and poured themselves... Dang!
Seven wine bowls collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

"Done!"

goo goo goo...

The treat was direct, and after a bowl of wine, the familiar feeling immediately returned, and Gu Jiting sat up.

"Twenty Sister, please tell me, what is going on with you?"

He was the most carefree one among the group, and naturally he had met Xu Xin, Ruan Feng and Feng Tianyang openly and secretly. However, he was puzzled by Duanmu Ying's resurrection, so he asked hurriedly.

"Well..."

"That's a long story."

Although the past was hard to recall, for Duanmu Ying, everything was in the past and she had let it go long ago. She then slowly recounted her past and her current situation.

"Ugh……"

"Sister, you have gone through such a change, but you can still maintain your original intention. I really didn't expect it."

After listening to this, Gu Jiting couldn't help but sigh.

And then, he seemed to remember something, so he looked at Xia Ye, who had been silent behind everyone. Duanmu Ying had mentioned this in her story just now, which made him curious.

"So, this young master is the ruler of the 'Heavenly Palace'?"

He couldn't help but look at it again, and the more he looked, the more surprised he was.

"He's only thirty, but he's already reached this level. Even Zhang Zhiwei back then probably couldn't compare to him, right?"

"Senior Gu, you are too kind. Although I have reached the top, if we really talk about it, the best in the world today is still undoubtedly the old Heavenly Master. I am far from being as good as him!" Xia Ye immediately said modestly.

"Hahaha, thirty! I tell you, don't underestimate this kid because he's being modest. If you were to talk about everything he's done, every single one of them would be jaw-dropping!"

At this time, Zhou Sheng couldn't help but smile.

"Xia Ye, can you speak?"

He immediately asked Xia Ye for his consent.

"Haha, now that things have progressed to this point, there is no need for me to hide anything anymore. Just tell me, senior." Xia Ye nodded.

"it is good!"

Zhou Sheng grinned immediately, looked at Gu Jiting again, and said to him mysteriously:

"I'm telling you, this kid is incredible!"

Just like that, Zhou Sheng listed everything Xia Ye had done in the past few years and told Gu Jiting. Although the others already knew about it, they were still surprised when they heard it again and kept clicking their tongues.

And when he finished:
"What? Global Inhumanization? Is this true?"

Gu Jiting couldn't believe it. He never expected that after he disappeared for more than 20 years, the whole world had changed so drastically.

“It’s really incredible!”

After sighing, he looked at Xia Ye with a hint of awe in his eyes. He admired him immensely for being able to reach the summit and accomplish such a feat before the age of thirty.

But when he heard that the overall power of the extraordinary world has been greatly enhanced, Zuo Rutong has been resurrected, the Trinity Sect has been rebuilt, Jie Kong has reached the other shore, and there are now four top figures in the world, he was stunned again and didn't know what to say.

"From this perspective..."

"The great era is indeed coming!"

So far, all the stories about Duanmu Ying, Xia Ye, and the current situation have been told. Everyone's eyes turned to Gu Jiting again, showing curiosity:
"So Thirty, where have you been all these years? What have you been through?"

"me……"

Gu Jiting lowered his head and began to recall.

"To be honest, whether you believe it or not, although I disappeared for more than 20 years in your eyes, it was only a few months for me."

He then said.

"As for where I went..."

"You should also know that what I want to do most in my life is to see the whole world. I hope to take the whole world into my eyes. Since I comprehended the 'Daluo Cave Observation', I have been getting closer and closer to my goal. When I realized that I had traveled and seen the whole world, I set my sights on the 'inner view'."

"interior?"

Hearing these two words, Zhou Sheng's brows suddenly frowned.

"You're not really going to explore the interior, are you? Didn't I warn you that it's extremely dangerous in there?"

"Yes, of course I know that."

Gu Jiting nodded.

"But Third Brother, I really couldn't help it. There was such an unknown world and a situation that I hadn't studied before me. How could I give up so easily? So after I felt that I was ready, I entered the 'Inner Scene'!"

"So, you have been staying in the 'Inner Scene' all these years? What did you discover?" Zhou Sheng asked again.

"Yes, I am indeed in the 'Inner Scene', but it is not just an 'Inner Scene'. You also know my ability to travel through various spaces and auras, and I am using this to find out what is going on."

Gu Jiting responded.

"As I was constantly traveling back and forth, I suddenly discovered that this 'interior scene' seemed to have more than just one 'layer' on the surface. There were many 'interlayers' in it, like 'space cracks'!"

"The gap?!"

Upon hearing this, not only Zhou Sheng and the others, but even Xia Ye widened his eyes. This was something he had not noticed when he explored the interior.

Of course, this does not mean that his observation skills are not as good as Gu Jiting's. In fact, after he reached the "top", his "enlightenment" had already surpassed the "Daluo Dongguan" in all aspects from the perspective of "observation skills", and he could observe more deeply than that.

The reason why he overlooked this point was that when he first entered the "Inner Scene", it was not for a purposeless exploration, but he wanted to find Wang Nianying first, and thus used this as a basis for the search.

Since he discovered the "Soul Hive" until now, he has basically not rested. First, he solved Duanmu Ying's problem, then he awakened Zuo Rutong, then he transformed the Soul Hive and made it move, and finally he created the "Six Paths of Reincarnation". He can be said to be working non-stop.

Because of this, Xia Ye was also concentrating at the moment. He had a hunch that Gu Jiting’s next words might be of great importance and might contain a shocking secret.

Seeing that everyone was confused, Gu Jiting began to explain:
"The so-called 'cracks' are some unique and relatively independent spaces between heaven and earth. They are formed basically because of a special aura. They are like bubbles in the space between heaven and earth, but the barriers are strong and will not be easily broken."

"I see……"

Everyone nodded and immediately showed concern.

"So you've spent the past twenty years in these 'cracks'?"

"Exactly!"

Gu Jiting nodded.

"Not only that, I also discovered that these 'cracks' in the 'interior scene' are very unusual. They are not formed naturally, but are artificially created!"

"Artificially made?"

"That's right. After a closer look, I discovered that the owners of these 'cracks' are none other than those 'tops' from the past!"

"What did you say!!!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked. They had never thought of this possibility before, but now it had come true.

Even Xia Ye's eyes narrowed and his pupils trembled. He had heard Gu Jiting mention "the best" before, but his mental state was obviously not good at that time, so he did not ask.

And at this time...

"Dear seniors, since Senior Gu mentioned this, I also have some information here, which may be related to it!" Xia Ye said immediately.

"Oh? Speak quickly!"

Everyone knew that this kid would never speak without a purpose, so they all focused their attention. Gu Jiting also paused and listened attentively.

"That's it..."

Next, Xia Ye recounted everything he had seen in Liu Tianhong's dream. He had only told the old Taoist priest about this, and it was the first time for them to hear it.

When he finished speaking, Zhang Huaiyi and others immediately understood what he meant by "connection":
"You mean, these past 'peaks' may not have disappeared, reached the sky, or fallen, but have opened up 'cracks' in the 'inner scene' and thrived in them?"

"But what is it for?"

Everyone was puzzled by this. They all understood the principle, but they just didn't understand why the "top" people did this.

In their view, the lifelong pursuit of a cultivator should be to "reach the sky", and these "top" predecessors should already have the "power to reach the sky", so why don't they reach the sky?

"Regarding this point, in fact, all of you seniors should be able to think of it. I heard about it from Senior Huaiyi a few years ago, and you should have already felt it..."

"That's why you all chose to hide."

"Ok?"

"What do you feel?"

Hearing this, Xu Xin was suddenly stunned and couldn't help but look at other people.

"..."

Everyone narrowed their eyes and looked embarrassed, even Xia Ye's expression froze.

"Um... I'm sorry, Senior Xu, I forgot that you are not the creator of the Eight Great Techniques, so you probably haven't felt it yet..."

"Well???"

"So what's going on?"

Xu Xin was confused, and the others explained to him: "Thirty-three, it's like this..."

When he heard it, he was shocked: "What did you say? There are eyes from the sky watching us? Is this true?"

"It is indeed true..."

Xia Ye spoke at this time and continued immediately.

"I remember Senior Huaiyi told me that although these eyes were watching from the inside, they were obviously blocked by something. Now it seems... this should be the reason why these 'top' seniors stayed in the inner scene."

"And I suspect that the old Heavenly Master should have reached a certain level and already had some kind of perception, so he would choose to quickly pass on the position of Heavenly Master and regain his freedom."

"Oh?"

"So, it has always been the 'top' people from the past who have been supporting our world?"

Everyone then understood and showed respect.

Just then...

"Well, Xia Ye's guess is very likely. I think so too. I have seen many past 'top masters' in the 'cracks' of the inner scene. I wanted to learn from them, but I found that they were all very weak, and some had even fallen into a deep sleep for a long time..."

"Those who are not asleep have basically reached their limit and are unable to speak. Even if they want to convey something to me, they are completely unable to do so."

"But there is one thing..."

He paused.

"Through the observation of the Daluo Cave, I can see that their cultivation is still growing. Although it is very slow, they are indeed improving little by little."

"As the 'top' who can 'reach the sky', even if they fall into a deep sleep, they are still gaining enlightenment!"

"However, as their cultivation base grows, their strength is also being drained by some kind of connection, and is in a state of constant loss. This is the reason for their weakness. Now it seems... perhaps it is to block those gazes!"

"but……"

Having said that, he changed the subject and a look of fear appeared on his face.

"There's a group of guys who are a little different. Some of them...seem to be crazy!"
