Chapter 359: Chapter 358: Return to Beiliang County!

The power of space is the most profound and mysterious force in the world. As the saying goes, time is revered, and space is king.

The path of space is unfathomable, surpassing even the pure elements of water, metal, fire, earth, and wood.

At least as far as Gu Yuan knows, there haven’t been any Golden Core Great Cultivators with the ability to comprehend the path of space, not even Yin Spirit giants, as he has never heard of such.

Moreover, this Eternal Divine Escape is clearly at the level of a prototype of great divine techniques, and with the improvement of Gu Yuan’s cultivation, it is certain to ascend to a true great divine technique!

Now, with this Eternal Divine Escape, Gu Yuan not only has a more profound foundation but also possesses a means to save his life!

Because this Eternal Divine Escape is intimately related to the power of space, Gu Yuan has made considerable progress in terms of speed.

Compared to its predecessor, the Eternal Spirit Escape, which was fast and adept at fleeing, the Eternal Divine Escape is far superior.

The difference is not only between divine techniques and the prototype of great divine techniques but also because the Eternal Divine Escape contains the mysteries of the path of space. Deep comprehension will be of great benefit to Gu Yuan in the future.

Furthermore, if he were to encounter the Fire Ancestor again, Gu Yuan is fully confident that he could escape directly, not even needing to make a move, and the other side would definitely not be able to harm him in the slightest!

Of course, if the Fire Ancestor’s true body personally intervened, Gu Yuan would not be so confident.

After all, the gap between the Celestial Human Realm and the Yin Spirit Realm is too great, like two entirely different great realms.

…

“Now, everything is ready; only the east wind is lacking!”

Gu Yuan took to his escape light. Although he was only performing sword escape, due to his expertise in Eternal Divine Escape, his speed was not much inferior to the previous Eternal Spirit Escape.

Gu Yuan, however, was in quite a good mood.

At present, among the five top-grade divine techniques, the Purple Sky Divine Thunder has transformed and sublimated into Chaos Divine Thunder, and the Eternal Spirit Escape has evolved into Eternal Divine Escape, which is also related to the path of space.

In such a situation, Gu Yuan suspects that his foundation is so robust that probably no one under the Golden Core can compare!

Nonetheless, Gu Yuan was still not satisfied, as he had early plans.

Whether it’s Chaos Divine Thunder or the current Eternal Divine Escape, they’re both obtained through taming spirit pets, not by his painstaking cultivation.

Moreover, they do not quite align with his foundational “Primordial True Water Scripture,” so they are unsuitable as the core for advancing to Golden Core.

Only his Sword Dao Divine Techniques are the most suitable!

However, for now, although the Dragon Loach has been upgraded, the Cyan Shadow Sword Butterfly remains in slumber.

It is unknown how long it will take to advance to a mature form.

Gu Yuan didn’t mind, as he has plenty of time to wait patiently.

When it comes to his foundation and even the grade of the Golden Core, and the path to future immortality, no amount of caution is too much.

At present, he possesses three top-grade divine techniques, and two prototypes of great divine techniques, which even First Grade Golden Core Great Cultivators might not match him in this regard.

Once Gu Yuan refines the prototype of the Sword Dao Great Divine Techniques, with three prototypes of great divine techniques and two top-grade divine techniques as the foundation, upon advancing to Golden Core Great Cultivator, his achievements will likely surpass those of Li Changsheng, a First Grade Golden Core Great Cultivator!

Perhaps at that time, Gu Yuan can even achieve the extraordinary feat of standing against Yin God giants with his Golden Core body!

It’s not impossible, as Gu Yuan can already reverse kill Golden Core Realm with a Celestial Human Realm.

Once he achieves First Grade Pill formation, or even higher accomplishments, and his life’s essence is sublimated, his combat power will undoubtedly increase significantly.

In such circumstances, warring against Yin God giants is not out of the question.

Gu Yuan looks forward to this!

…

With the Eternal Divine Escape, both Gu Yuan’s speed and the concealment of his personal movements have greatly improved.

As a result, several days later, Gu Yuan returned to Beiliang County.

With a sweep of his divine thought, the current situation of Beiliang County and all the various events happening emerged in his mind.

Gu Yuan’s face revealed a somewhat complex expression.

To say the least, he had left Beiliang County just over six months ago.

This time seems short, especially for cultivators with long lifespans.

However, during these six plus months, Gu Yuan experienced many ups and downs.

Several times, he was in dire peril.

Now, he has already advanced to the Celestial Human Realm’s Great Perfection Realm, just a step away from Golden Core, and has even personally slain several Golden Core Great Cultivators.

He can be said to have achieved some success.

Returning to Beiliang County now can be considered a ’prosperous return home.’

So, at this moment, Gu Yuan can’t help but feel sentimental.

Back then, when he first awakened the Mystery of the Womb, the scenes of him struggling and striving in Beiliang County are still vivid in his memory. Yet now, everything has changed.

With a sense of nostalgia, Gu Yuan’s escape light turned, flying towards Gu Family Village, where he landed in his family’s small courtyard.

At this moment, it was noon, and Father Gu and Mother Gu were having their meal.

Gu Yuan’s appearance quickly caught Father Gu’s attention. At first, seeing a figure suddenly appear in the courtyard, he was a bit wary, and he quickly got up, grabbing a rolling pin and shouting alertly, “Who? Who’s there?!”

“Dad, Mom, it’s me, Ah Yuan…”

Gu Yuan’s voice came through, clearly reaching the ears of the elderly couple.

“This voice… it’s Ah Yuan!”

Before Father Gu could say anything, Mother Gu had already become excited, immediately putting down her bowl and chopsticks, standing up to look toward the courtyard.

There, she saw a somewhat familiar, handsome figure.

“Really Ah Yuan?!”

Seeing Gu Yuan, Mother Gu rushed out quickly, grabbing Gu Yuan’s arm: “Son, my son, you’ve finally returned…”

With that, she pulled Gu Yuan into her embrace.

Father Gu chuckled and also came over to the courtyard, quietly watching the scene with a smile.

“Mom, it’s me. Your son is unworthy. I was caught up in some matters these past days, and couldn’t come back to see you two.”

Gu Yuan said with a smile, looking at Mother Gu’s graying hair and wrinkled old face, feeling a pang of heartache, he decided to stay home for a few days to use spirit elixirs to properly help his parents recover their health.

Father Gu and Mother Gu are his biological parents in this life, so naturally, he wants to care for them a bit more.

As for their health…

With his alchemy skills, the likelihood of refining spirit pills that bring immortality is almost nil.

However, making the two elderly become light and vigorous, robust and healthy, and agile, is quite easy.

Ordinarily, a common mortal can live at most a hundred years, already considered a venerable person.

Father and Mother Gu have overexerted themselves with hefty farm work, causing considerable bodily wear and tear. In Gu Yuan’s estimation, they might only live another five or six years.

But now…

Gu Yuan is back; he’s a master in the alchemy dao and possesses various rare and precious spirit medicines.

According to their current health conditions, it’s perfectly feasible for the elderly to have black hair, a light and healthy body, and live another thirty to fifty years.
