The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils
Chapter 466 The Sealed Past
When he recalled his past memories in a foreign land, he was completely bewildered and disoriented.
During that time, Gu was in extreme pain because so many of his comrades and fellow cultivators had died at his hands. The reason he was able to gain the trust of the alien realm was through his ruthless killing. He had also become the most hated person among the surviving beings of the Primal Ancient Realm, who wished they could eat his flesh, drink his blood, and devour him alive.
Seeing the primordial ancient world shattered into nine heavens and ten earths, and the world's weak strength, Gu was deeply conflicted.
An era has passed, and his people have taken root and flourished in foreign lands, while the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are a desolate and dark place, devoid of any future or hope.
Sometimes, he thought that he should just join the foreign land. He couldn't do anything significant to the foreign land on his own; it would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. But he always recalled the past, those years of war, the people and things that had passed away, and the entrustment of the two leaders, Liudao and Wuzhong.
He cannot forget, nor can he ever forget.
Finally, after the battle at the border, he heard about the defeat in the foreign lands and felt that he had seen a glimmer of hope. Everything that happened afterward proved this to be true.
Shi Yi rose to prominence, leading the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths back to glory. Following closely behind, Shi Hao also rose to prominence. The two brothers became a force to be reckoned with in the Boundary Sea and even fought their way through alien realms.
At this point, the gu's undercover identity was no longer of much significance. He followed his heart and suppressed the two creatures as a pledge of allegiance.
At that time, Gu was extremely uneasy because his actions seemed too purposeful. He didn't know if Shuangshi would accept him. In the end, Shi Yi believed him directly, which moved Gu deeply.
But Shi Yi's belief doesn't mean others believe it. The Second Under Heaven, Immortal Golden Daoist, and Stone King are all old comrades-in-arms from back then. They fought side by side and witnessed the cruelty of the "Gu". Their hatred for the Gu has lasted for two eras.
"Gu, you executioner, die!" The second-best in the world charged forward, terrifying power gathering at the dragon's tail. This was the full-force attack of a supreme immortal king, without any reservation.
The same was true of the Immortal Golden Daoist. His entire body shone with golden light, and his powerful Immortal Golden Body looked down upon all directions. Even giants could not break him in a short time.
The Stone King's eyes were wide open in fury, and the terrifying power emanating from his large hand was directly proportional to his boundless hatred.
The three supreme immortal kings were determined to kill him immediately, without even asking any questions.
Shi Yi sighed. He understood why the three Immortal Kings were acting this way. Without having witnessed firsthand what Gu had done after sealing his memories, what right did they have to judge the right and wrong of these matters?
However, we cannot deny the crickets a chance to speak.
"boom!"
Shi Yi made his move, his eyes shining brightly, creating an unparalleled pure land to block the attacks of the three supreme immortal kings. This was an easy task for Shi Yi.
"Shi Yi, why protect this executioner? Do you know how many comrades he killed? His crimes are unforgivable!" the Second Under Heaven shouted.
The other two Celestial Kings also glared angrily at the cricket.
“I know, but let’s give him a chance to explain. The truth must be revealed. If you still want to kill him after the truth is revealed, then I have nothing more to say,” Shi Yi said softly.
Hearing him say this, the three supreme immortal kings calmed down slightly, then looked coldly at Gu, wanting to hear how he would explain.
The other Celestial Kings watched this scene in silence. Many of them had returned from the Great Rectification and had not experienced the Ancient Celestial War. They did not know the reasons behind it, so no one spoke and just watched quietly.
The gu sighed and said nothing, but waved its hands, using the clan's innate secret technique. With one hand it could sever time and with the other it could sever space, recreating the scene from that year.
At this moment, fragments of time danced and flew upwards along the river of time, then tore open a gaping hole to recreate the scene that occurred at that point in time.
Gu waved his hands, looking quite strained, after all, it involved two powerful giants, and he was only at the level of a supreme immortal king.
Upon seeing this, Shi Yi simply raised his hand slightly, and Gu felt much more at ease. He was awestruck; this leader of the Nine Heavens possessed far greater mastery of the Great Dao of Time than Gu himself had innate talent.
"Crash!"
As the river of time flows on, a historical scroll slowly unfolds, allowing everyone to relive those bygone days.
Chaos raged, and the secrets of heaven were unfathomable. Two tall and majestic figures stood in the chaos. At that time, Gu was still at the level of the Ten Fiends, and his primordial spirit had not yet taken the final step. He was summoned by the leader of the ancient world and came to this place.
Two figures appeared, one with a Chaos Bell hanging above his head, and the other with a few corners of a disintegrated Reincarnation Disc hanging above his head. Clearly, the two were the giants Wuzhong and Liudao.
"Cricket!"
When the Immortal King Wuzhong spoke, his eyes seemed to hold the roaring and surging river of time.
"Would you be willing to do something for this world?"
"One thing?" Gu looked puzzled.
Then he said, "I will do anything within my power."
The Six Paths of Reincarnation Immortal King nodded.
"The signs of defeat in the ancient realm are already evident. This battle is likely to end badly."
"How could that be? As long as the two lords are still here, our realm will not fall." Gu refused to believe that they would fail.
"In short, we need to think about the future. Wuzhong and I have discussed this for a long time and hope to find a suitable candidate to betray the ancient realm and go to the foreign land. It would be like planting a nail in the foreign land. One day in the future, when the cause and effect are settled, it may play a great role." The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King said.
"The two lords have chosen me?" Gu asked in shock.
“That’s right. Among the beings in the ancient realm with the power of an Immortal King, you are the most suitable. Your clan’s talent in the Great Dao of Time and Space is unparalleled, and you can conceal many secrets without them being leaked.” Wuzhi nodded.
Upon hearing this, Gu showed a look of struggle. He knew that once he agreed, he would have to bear the infamy for all eternity, which was an immense burden. Given his personality, he really did not want that and would rather die on the battlefield.
"Bearing humiliation and biding your time, you carry a heavier burden than those of us who fight on the battlefield. But for the sake of the future, someone must step forward, and you are the most suitable person. Gu, are you willing? Can you do it? Bear our expectations and deliver a fatal blow to the foreign invaders in the distant future." The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King spoke, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Gu.
The Immortal King Wuzhong also revealed an expectant look in his eyes.
With the two leaders already saying so, how could Gu possibly utter words of refusal?
"Alright, I'm willing to bear this eternal infamy, but how can I gain the trust of this foreign land?" Gu finally agreed.
“We were prepared.” As he spoke, a figure stepped forward; it was none other than the Stone King.
Subsequently, a plan quietly emerged.
The gu and the stone king had a conflict in the past, and even fought each other, which created a grudge. However, with the invasion of foreign lands, this grudge was put aside. Now, the gu wants to pretend to serve, and this grudge can be of great use.
"Before you undergo your tribulation, we will seal your memories. During the tribulation, Fellow Daoist Shi will break your path to becoming an Immortal King. Afterwards, someone will try to turn you against us and lead you to betray us. During this process, it is normal for you to do whatever you want. We will not only seal your memories, but also seal other things and amplify your killing intent and ruthlessness."
"You will only slowly remember it in the next era," Wu Zhong said.
"I understand." Gu nodded, his face unusually heavy. He had to bear the infamy for all eternity. He had no choice but to accept this heavy burden.
Then, the two giants made their move, and Gu himself also cast a spell to ensure that the kings of the foreign lands would not notice the slightest trace of their actions.
When the gu opened his eyes again, he was already in his ancestral land. He felt as if he was in a daze for a moment. Then, on a whim, he felt that the opportunity to overcome the tribulation of the primordial spirit had come, and it was today.
"Boom!"
The heavens and earth collapsed, stars fell, and the Immortal King Tribulation reappeared. This was not the first time Gu had undergone the Immortal King Tribulation. In the previous tribulations, he had only achieved the status of a king in terms of physical body. Although his primordial spirit had been tempered many times, he was still some distance away from becoming a true Immortal King.
This time, he is determined to overcome the tribulation of his primordial spirit and transform into a true immortal king.
Before long, the tribulation of the primordial spirit descended, and the gu began to undergo the test. However, at the critical moment of its tribulation, a huge hand that blotted out the sky slammed down and struck the gu's body hard. Instantly, it suffered severe damage, and its primordial spirit was also cleaved into a thousand holes.
"Ah, your surname is Shi!"
The gu roared, its hatred beyond words.
Ultimately, he failed; his tribulation was interrupted by interference.
In reality, even without interference, he was still lacking; this was merely a plan by Liudao and Wuzhong.
Enraged by his failed tribulation, Gu went directly to the two leaders, demanding an explanation.
He thought the two giants would severely punish the Stone Clan creature, but to his surprise, Wuzhong and Liudao both advised him to prioritize the greater good, as the current situation was one of intense conflict with the alien realm, and all internal grudges should be put aside.
The cricket harbored resentment and began to feel dissatisfied. At this time, a creature from another realm secretly made contact with it, and slowly, that resentment was aroused. It then betrayed the realm and entered another realm. Moreover, its killing intent surged out continuously, killing many creatures from the ancient primordial world, making the creatures of this realm hate the cricket to the bone.
Then the image faded away, and the truth of everything from back then came to light.
Upon learning the truth, the several supreme immortal kings fell silent. Bearing the infamy for eternity was indeed too heavy a burden. It was hard to imagine what kind of feelings Gu would have after regaining his memories.
Especially the Stone King, whose memories of this matter were sealed away by a force until he watched the re-enactment of history, at which point the seal melted away like spring snow.
A bygone era was brought back to mind.
"So that's how it is. No wonder Fellow Daoist Shi disregarded the bigger picture and interrupted your progress to become an Immortal King. So that's how it was." The Second Under Heaven sighed softly.
They remembered these things. When Gu Zheng was the Immortal King, they all thought he was not quite ready and would not succeed. No one expected the Stone King's sudden attack. However, after that palm strike, the kings stopped the Stone King and did not let him continue to make a move.
Later, Gu defected. Everyone knew it was because of this incident. But they never expected that after he entered the alien realm, he would become a completely different person, slaughtering the creatures of this realm in a bloody manner. In the end, he even delivered a fatal blow to the leader of the ancient realm, with royal blood splattering all over the banner. This is why they hate Gu. His surrender was for a reason, but his killing spree was something they couldn't understand. The other people who also surrendered didn't kill as many as Gu combined.
“Fellow Daoists, I know these hands are stained with blood that can’t be washed off. You can do with them however you like,” Gu said.
The three supreme immortal kings sighed, shook their heads, glanced at Gu with complicated expressions, and did not mention the matter again.
Thus, the cricket won forgiveness and gained a place in the heavens and the earth.
The Dark Willow God also settled down, becoming another giant in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
The addition of the two Celestial Kings instantly made the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths even stronger.
It's important to understand that for an ancient realm to produce a giant, it would take countless epochs of time, and the quickest way is for an outsider to join.
In essence, the Dark Willow God is not an outsider joining, but rather a returnee.
Shi Hao went back to recuperate. Shi Yi felt that there was plenty of time in this life, so there was no need to forcibly break through the King to become an Emperor like in the original story.
At that stage, Shi Hao probably hadn't reached the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm. Time was too tight, and he lacked the tempering of years. He was in a hurry to break through to the King realm and become an Emperor, so he could only force it.
In this life, there's no need to rush. Shi Hao's progress is faster, and his understanding and comprehension of the secret realm techniques are deeper.
Therefore, Shi Yi did not suggest that he go to the burial site now to experience the imperial crown.
As for himself, on the forbidden sea of suffering, the little man formed from his essence, energy, and spirit has already crossed the seventh beacon and is heading towards the eighth beacon. He is just waiting to cross the vast ocean and reach the shore before he can challenge that realm. He will also begin his seclusion to compete with time.
However, before that, he planned to forge his own weapon.
The four Great Daos—Time, Space, Destiny, and Cause and Effect—each correspond to a unique artifact.
He had been accumulating materials for a long time. Since his rise, countless Immortal Kings had died at Shi Yi's hands, including Immortal Kings from other realms, Immortal Kings from the Boundary Sea, Kings from the Immortal Realm, and the treasure trove he had plundered from the rulers of the forbidden zones of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
With so many Immortal King treasures, there was enough for Shi Yi to use for refining weapons.
Carrying numerous materials and various Immortal King weapons he had collected, he traversed countless realms and arrived at the Boundary Sea, where the environment was unique and the power of laws was abundant, making it the most suitable place for weapon forging.
Shi Yi descended and stood on the boundary of the dam. His appearance touched the nerves of the Immortal Kings of the Boundary Sea. This being was too powerful. He stood at the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm and had an amazing record. Who in the world could be his enemy?
Many Immortal Kings of the Realm Seas felt uneasy and avoided his sharp edge, not daring to linger in the direction of Shi Yi.
He took a step forward, stepping into the vast sea of boundaries, and sat cross-legged amidst the endless waves, preparing to start the furnace and refine weapons.
Now, he possesses an abundance of valuable items, many of which are rare and exceptional materials. However, since Shi Yi's artifact corresponds to four Great Daos, he must select suitable materials and avoid a hodgepodge approach. Only in this way can the power of the four Great Daos be maximized.
