Chapter 515: Nine Yin Divine Mansion, Terrifying Celestial God
[At 3,116 years old, Gu An comprehended the Daoist Unique Venerate Skill and perceived the Three Thousand Great Dao, gaining enlightenment within his heart. In that same year, all the Karma Avatars he had sent out were annihilated. He did not inform Wudao Immortal of this event.]
[At 3,320 years old, Gu An found Wudao Immortal and expressed a desire to engage in slaughter. Wudao Immortal did not let him leave but instead sent him into the Boundless Purgatory, a place of exile used by the Celestial Court. Anyone who fell into it could only engage in endless slaughter until they were killed.]
[At 3,321 years old, Gu An condensed his own Daoist Emperor Divine Skills.]
[By the age of 3,350, Gu An had leveraged Life Span Evolution to forcefully enter the Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal Realm. He met Emperor Guangyu, and through Emperor Guangyu, he gained a deeper understanding of the Boundless Purgatory.]
[At age 3,362, a powerful being was exiled into the purgatory by the Celestial Court. Gu An witnessed this powerful being besieged, killing gods when gods stood in the way and demons when demons blocked the path. Feeling that he was no match, he stayed away from the battlefield.]
[At 3,400 years old, Emperor Guangyu, with that powerful being, found Gu An. This person was known as the Emperor Zhenhai, also a Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal. They prepared to go and slaughter the most terrifying existence in the Boundless Purgatory—the No Prison Demon Lord.]
[At 3,401 years old, the three of you found the No Prison Demon Lord. However, you were no match for him. After being repeatedly heavily injured, Wudao Immortal suddenly appeared at the critical moment. Unexpectedly, he was acquainted with the No Prison Demon Lord. The No Prison Demon Lord looked at you and forced you to choose between Emperor Guangyu and Emperor Zhenhai, with only one of them being able to survive with you. You fell into a dilemma.]
It was time for Gu An to make a choice, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He still had a choice to make, which meant that the Reincarnation Body was still under the control of the Lifespan Reincarnation.
Choosing between Emperor Guangyu and Emperor Zhenhai was easy. After all, he knew Emperor Guangyu better because of Black Profound.
Gu An immediately chose Emperor Guangyu.]
[You chose to let Emperor Guangyu live, yet the No Prison Demon Lord did not slay Emperor Zhenhai but instead took him as a subordinate. You and Emperor Zhenhai exchanged glances, feeling the hostility from the other. Afterwards, Wudao Immortal brought you back from the Boundless Purgatory to the Land of Reincarnation.]
[At 3,500 years old, you took advantage of Wudao Immortal's absence and stealthily left his dojo, embarking on your own adventure in the Land of Reincarnation.]
[At 3,501 years old, you encountered a Ghost Immortal from the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, sustaining severe injuries and having no choice but to leap into the Netherworld.]
[You began your Reincarnation.]
Nine Yin Divine Mansion?
A mere Ghost Immortal could heavily wound the Black Profound Emperor, a Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal?
Gu An grew even more wary of the Land of Reincarnation. During his previous breakthroughs in the Land of Reincarnation, he had always felt an eerie chill, as though something immensely terrifying was hidden in the dark.]
After reincarnating, it was a new life, but the Black Profound Emperor still retained the ability of Life Span Evolution.
However, the Reincarnation Body was distinctly different from Gu An. They lacked the various life span abilities and could only use Life Span Evolution to enhance their Cultivation Level and Daoist Techniques, not like Gu An who controlled Life Expectancy Prediction, Life Span Barrier, Life Span Simulation, and other abilities.]
Every time the Black Profound Emperor made a breakthrough, he would suffer attacks, exactly because he lacked the Life Span Barrier.]
In this life, the Black Profound Emperor achieved the Nirvana Realm before he turned a thousand years old. Then, he began to regain his memories and, after sweeping away his enemies in a single lifetime, he stepped out of the Path of Reincarnation at the age of two thousand and returned to the Land of Reincarnation, restoring his cultivation as a Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal.]
Free from the harassment of the Ghost Immortal, the Black Profound Emperor continued to advance.]
In this way, the Black Profound Emperor began his own adventurous life. He no longer dwelled on Fairy Bai Xian, but he would go to explore the existence of the Celestial Court.]
In future hints, he would meet women who moved his heart, but Gu An rejected them on his behalf. One profound experience was enough.]
Gu An continually made choices on behalf of the Black Profound Emperor, and each choice reinforced his own confidence.]
He had indeed been bluffed by Wudao Immortal before, as if the Reincarnation Body would devour its master.]
Before he knew it, the Black Profound Emperor reached one million years of age. He had been holding off breaking through to the Innate Golden Immortal Realm, and Gu An felt he must be wary of something.]
Finally, the Black Profound Emperor began his breakthrough.]
[At one million and eight years old, you started your breakthrough and succeeded in surpassing the Free Immortal status to achieve the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit. You encountered an attack from Wudao Immortal, who wanted to take possession of your physical body. You employed your Divine Skills and leaped to another Great World, with Wudao Immortal in hot pursuit.]
"You have come to the Celestial Spirit Great World," you realize this Great World has already shattered, and so you rush toward the World Gate, wanting to flee to a stronger Great World, as the Godless Immortal continuously attacks you.
"You encounter an attack by the Celestial Spirit God," you are severed in two by a single axe blow from the Celestial Spirit God, you immediately resist, but the Celestial Spirit God swings the axe again and slays you, destroying both body and spirit.
"You die at the hands of the Celestial Spirit God."
"Reincarnation ends."
Damn it!
The Celestial Spirit God again!
Even the Black Profound Emperor died by his hand?
Celestial Spirit God, if you could also slay the Godless Immortal, then I would truly admire you!
That's what Gu An thought to himself as he got up, disappeared from his spot, and arrived at the highest peak in the Daoist Field of the Beginningless. He sat cross-legged on a cliff and began to inherit the memories of reincarnation.
The Reincarnation prompts were just a summary; only by truly inheriting the memories of reincarnation could one feel them vividly.
A continuous stream of reincarnation memories flooded into Gu An's mind. Upon awakening in the body of reincarnation in the Dark Great World, the whole world was enshrouded in darkness.
The world was dark, and human hearts, even darker.
Although Luo Abyss had saved Black Profound, he hadn't treated him all that well, but because he was Black Profound's only kin, Black Profound could never forget him.

No matter how many years passed, Black Profound would always think of that dark Cave Mansion.
Having become Black Profound, Gu An could understand these feelings.
The more one lacks something, the more they yearn; he did not miss Luo Abyss, he yearned for kinship, that was all.
In the Dark Great World, not a single day was happy for Black Profound; Gu An felt that he had it even worse than Chu Lu and Xiao Shengtian.
It was only when Gu An stepped into the Profound Pure Great World that his entire world seemed to brighten and become radiant thanks to Fairy Bai Xian's smile.
At that moment, he was Black Profound, and he too wanted to protect Fairy Bai Xian for a lifetime.
The life that followed, adventuring through the Great World with Fairy Bai Xian, was even more carefree and joyous, and also gave Gu An a deeper understanding of the power of the Great World.
In the Profound Pure Great World, the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Path were not a secret to sentient beings, and there were even transcendent beings who surpassed the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Path, active in the world, each an overlord and a Great Power of the world.
When the God of Destruction appeared, the beauty finally shattered.
Gu An stood in front of his Cave Mansion, looking up at the visage of the God of Destruction, truly a sight of awe-inspiring power. Even the skies of the Great Thousand World could not contain the God of Destruction. How powerful the Profound Clear Immortal Sect was, yet those who surpassed the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Path fell one after another in their assaults on the God of Destruction, as futile as mantises trying to stop a chariot, moths to a flame, utterly powerless.
Afterward, Gu An began to experience more peril.
When the Godless Immortal brought him to the Land of Reincarnation and he started to cultivate his Karma Avatars, he caught a glimpse of the greed hidden deep in the Godless Immortal's eyes which briefly exposed itself.
When all three thousand of his Karma Avatars were annihilated, even without the memories of that moment, he could still feel something.
There was no so-called transcendence; to annihilate one's own reincarnation bodies in other spacetimes and Great Worlds only eliminated karma, and for each one destroyed, one would suffer from Karma Retribution, a pain that Gu An could feel.
Life is vast; looking back, it seems like smoke and clouds.
When Gu An reached the endpoint of this life, he once again felt the might of the Celestial Spirit God, whose power was extremely terrifying, much more than what it seemed on the surface.
Before his death, as his divine soul was not yet completely dissipated, Gu An saw the Celestial Spirit God swing his axe at the Godless Immortal, successfully decapitating him.
The Godless Immortal wore an expression of shock, as if he had not anticipated the Celestial Spirit God to be so powerful.
