Above all spirits

Chapter 144 Farewell

"Big brother, isn't it over yet?"

"I don't see any pursuers behind us."

Wearing a "black battle robe," Xiao Li carried the sleeping Bai Qing'er and flew through the void with Gu Yun. With the passive support of the Star Moon Demon Clan, the two traveled without hindrance.

Looking at Gu Yun's somewhat somber figure, Xiao Li finally couldn't help but ask a question.

Gu Yun hadn't said a word the whole way, as if something bad had happened, but judging from what he had seen so far, wasn't the result a complete victory?

He doesn't believe the Seraphim Cult is just a paper tiger.

It must be that Gu Yun's displayed strength was so great that the Blazing Heaven Divine Cult was unable to pursue and kill him.

For example, if even the strongest member of the Blazing Heaven Cult couldn't defeat Gu Yun, what's the point of sending out other members?

Isn't this just sending them to their deaths?

Gu Yun shook his head.

"It should be over."

"Although I don't know why that God Li Tian didn't catch up, I thought there would be a chase, since I was holding Qing'er at the time, so my strength was reduced."

"But as long as she doesn't catch up, it means we're out of danger."

"I was just thinking about something else."

Xiao Li stared in astonishment.

"Brother, the celestial being you're talking about... you mean a being of celestial-level life form..."

Gu Yun had told him about the life ranks above the innate realm, and that even the gods in the upper realm were top-tier combatants.

This guy is on a completely different level from me.

A true idiot.

I'm afraid I could kill myself with just one finger.

Without my older brother by my side, I'd better stay far away from any deities I encounter.

After all, I don't know any disguise techniques, and I don't know if I'll be blacklisted by the Protoss in the future.

You should know that over the past few years, I have identified all sorts of people, demons, gods, and monsters.

Gods, truly unprecedented.

Even divine generals are few and far between.

He couldn't help but admire Gu Yun's strength.

With the body of a demon general, how could he even defeat a celestial being? Could he be invincible among those of the same level?

Those thighs are so thick!

however.

Perhaps only Gu Yun himself knows the truth.

Unfortunately, he escaped.

In his Star Moon Demon form, he was unable to handle the Blazing Divine Fire, nor could he break through the Divine Feather Protection for the time being.

He successfully killed Chi Tong and Chi Xian'er's fake body, but he only managed to cast the first move without being interrupted, and then used his ultimate move at close range.

They took advantage of the information gap and the difference in soul power to catch the enemy off guard.

This God Li Tian was quite cautious; before even arriving at his temple in the lower realm, he would temporarily raise his soul power to a full state, so that he could use his powers at any time.

He thought he could catch them off guard just the same way.

Pity.

If you successfully kill it, who knows what good loot it might drop.

If it really comes down to a direct confrontation, given the current situation, unless one raises their strength to the pseudo-innate level, they will probably only be able to wage a war of attrition.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other party has no other means.

but.

Is it possible for a god to do this without any other means?

He didn't want to reveal too many of his cards that would attract attention in the sight of gods and demons for the time being.

and so.

Gu Yun is not invincible among his peers.

At most, they can only remain undefeated against opponents of the same rank.

The reason he looked so serious throughout the journey was...

It's because I've been thinking about it.

Previously, his understanding of the Emperor's Will was limited to it being a powerful method that could even harm gods and demons.

Humanity is born with defects, which Heaven repairs according to the natural order.

Quite reasonable.

but!

If the Emperor's will is a kind of rule consciousness, it is born from the power of rules.

That's different.

Isn't this compensation a bit too much?

It's like the compensation given to a game server that's about to shut down.

A power that even the gods of the upper realm might never obtain in their entire lives.

By what right can beings from the lower realms reach them?

This is very unreasonable.

Can't figure it out.

But Gu Yun's intuition told her that this needed to be taken seriously.

...

Following Xiao Li's guidance, the two returned to Crimson Flame Star once again.

The journey wasn't far; the Blazing Heaven Temple was not far from Crimson Flame Star, and with the strength of a pseudo-innate cultivator, it would only take about three hours to fly at full speed.

Despite the back-and-forth travel and the battle, which seemed like a lot of work, it actually only took up most of the day.

It is currently afternoon.

Gu Yun instructed Xiao Li to take Bai Qing'er back first, and handed him a jade slip containing the various cultivation methods he had collected, saying.

"Xiao Li, after you go back, discuss this with Ji Ning. When Bai Qing'er wakes up, briefly tell her your two opinions, and then let her choose a suitable cultivation method so she can begin her cultivation journey."

"I don't know much about the cultivation methods in the lower realm. In short, what's suitable is the most important. The cultivation methods in the jade slips are all good. I don't expect them to be of much help in actual combat. I just want to raise my life rank first."

"Otherwise, we won't be able to grant her any powers through a contract later."

Xiao Li was afraid of waking Bai Qing'er. Although he would sleep soundly after being under great mental pressure, he still spoke softly.

"Okay, big brother, are you starting to plan your scheme against the Heavenly Demon Emperor?"

Gu Yun nodded.

The matter concerning the Seraphim Clan should be temporarily resolved.

At least.

There shouldn't be any major problems in the short term.

After being jostled by this unexpected incident, I'm now clearly lacking in energy.

A little tired.

Let's put aside the matter of divine incarnations for now.

We need to plan out the most important things first.

One must take things one step at a time.

Eat your meal one bite at a time.

This incident wasn't entirely bad.

It is still helpful for my current plans.

This also made Gu Yun realize that even in the lower realms, gods and demons are not beings that can be easily ignored.

And there must be many gods in the fairy realm.

Just knowing how to run away isn't enough.

Take a deep breath.

Slowly clench your hands together.

It added a bit of vitality to my somewhat weary body.

He turned and walked to the other side.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he turned around and called out to stop Xiao Li, who was walking away.

"What's wrong, brother? Is there anything else you need to tell me?"

Faced with Xiao Li's question.

Gu Yun glanced at Bai Qing'er, who was fast asleep in Xiao Li's arms, and said casually.

"It's nothing, it's just..."

"Bai Qing'er, have you had it checked?"

Is there anything unusual?

Something feels off, but I can't figure out why.

Xiao Li mistakenly thought that Gu Yun was worried that something bad might have been done to Bai Qing'er during the time she was taken away by the Blazing God Clan.

He offered words of comfort.

"Don't worry, brother. I already did the test when you took me away. Qing'er has no abnormalities. She just has the basic description of an ordinary child. Do you need me to do a more in-depth test to take another look?"

Gu Yun waved his hand and said.

"No, no need, it was just a casual question."

"You need to save your last deep assessment, I need it. From your description, there's a one-month cooldown period."

"It's only been half a month, half a month is too long."

It must be my own misunderstanding.

Gu Yun gave a word of advice.

"Be careful on the road."

After saying that, he disappeared into the shadows and left the place.
