Chapter 4 The Sealed Evil God
Chapter 4 The Sealed Evil God
The cultivation methods of spiritual masters in the Cloud Realm are different from those of immortal cultivators, but they also have similarities.
They too must use spiritual power and possess spiritual roots to become Spirit Masters. The Spirit Realm and Lesser Spirit Realm are equivalent to the Qi Refining stage, where one can draw spiritual energy into the body; the Greater Spirit Realm is equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage, which is the stage where cultivators lay their foundation for the Dao, while Spirit Masters in the Lesser Spirit Realm have cultivated their spiritual foundation.
The Earth Spirit Realm is equivalent to the Core Formation stage. The sign of a cultivator entering the Core Formation stage is the successful formation of the Core, while a Spirit Master in the Earth Spirit Realm has cultivated a Spirit Core.
When Gu Yan was six years old, he made up a story to convince his parents that he had a mysterious master. This gave a reasonable explanation for the cultivation techniques he practiced.
You can't exactly say you have memories of a past life, can you?
"I guessed so. Your master is truly amazing. He can even repair a shattered spiritual root. I really thought you would never have the chance to cultivate again in your life. I really should thank your master properly," said Gu Yunhong, the head of the Gu family.
Madam Gu, Han Xinyue, said, "It's just that your master has a strange temper and refuses to see us. However, he is truly good to you. You must take good care of him in the future."
Gu Yan smiled and said, "Of course."
He couldn't help but think to himself: Am I being filial to myself?
After asking about cultivation levels, Gu Yunhong and Han Xinyue then inquired about Song Yan and Su Ningxue.
"Son, Song Yan or Ning Xue, which one do you plan to marry?" Han Xinyue asked seriously.
Gu Yan: "Mother, your son is still young."
"You're not young anymore, you're eighteen. Men should marry when they're of age and women should marry when they're of age. Which of them do you like? Or do you like them both?" Han Xinyue asked.
Gu Yunhong looked at him with a grin.
Gu Yan: "I only see them as younger sisters."
He was over six hundred years old in his previous life combined. In his eyes, Song Yan and Su Ningxue were just two little girls. In Gu Yan's heart, he was already an old monster. Even if he was reincarnated as a teenager, it would be difficult for him to have any thoughts about two girls who were only high school students.
"Those two don't just see you as brothers, don't you really want to consider it?" Han Xinyue said with a smile.
"No, no! Dad, Mom, I'm tired and want to rest," Gu Yan said.
Gu Yunhong replied, "Alright then, you go and rest first! Your mother and I will be leaving now."
Halfway there, he stopped again and said, "That brat Yang Zhen has a foul mouth. Once he leaves Qingyun City, we'll kill him. Yan'er, what do you say?"
Gu Yunhong smiled, his tone as if he were saying the moonlight was nice, even though he was talking about murder.
"He keeps calling me a useless piece of trash. Even I don't like him anymore. Chop him up and use him as fertilizer." Han Xinyue said gently, but a cold glint flashed in her beautiful eyes, which were exactly like Gu Yan's.
Gu Yan's lips twitched slightly: "Father, Mother, we are civilized people."
Gu Yunhong nodded: "Yes, that's true. We're civilized people, let your Uncle Chen and Uncle Ding do this kind of rough work. They're experts at disposing of bodies."
Uncle Chen and Uncle Ding are the gardener and cook for the Gu family, respectively.
Gu Yan said helplessly, "Father, we are civilized people. Saying a few wrong words is not a capital offense. Stop worrying about it. Your son hasn't suffered any loss. Can you please stop talking about killing people all the time?"
Gu Yan knew that her parents were hiding a big secret, even though they had never told her.
Han Xinyue reached out and touched Gu Yan's head gently, saying, "My son is so kind. You're so beautiful and kind. I'm really afraid you'll suffer."
"I won't be taken advantage of so easily, don't worry. Okay, I really need to rest now, you guys go back first."
Gu Yan pushed his parents out the door, and after they left, he closed it again. As he turned around, he heard a soft laugh—a woman's laughter, charming and alluring.
Everything around her changed. Gu Yan stood in a strange space filled with misty white fog. The fog swirled and suddenly, enchanting red spider lilies bloomed on the ground. Then, a silver-haired woman appeared in front of Gu Yan.
The woman had skin as white as snow, an exquisite face, and a pair of beautiful red eyes that were more captivating than jewels.
She was completely naked, her silver hair cascading down to her waist, her snow-white body boasting stunning curves, like a masterpiece of art. She chuckled softly, her body seemingly floating in mid-air like a light feather, and then in a flash, she appeared behind Gu Yan.
"Little liar~"
She whispered in Gu Yan's ear, her breath sweet as orchids, and tried to kiss his ear, but Gu Yan slapped her on the chest. The stunning woman screamed and fell to the ground.
Gu Yan looked at her with a very cold gaze.
The woman's silver hair cascaded down her chest, her eyes brimming with tears, as if she were about to sob. Her high, firm breasts were partially obscured by her silver hair, making her alluring even more. With such exquisite beauty and a perfect body, no man could resist her, but Gu Yan remained unmoved.
No matter how beautiful this silver-haired woman is, she can't compare to Gu Yan.
Having stared at his own face for eighteen years, Gu Yan had become immune to beautiful women. Even a stunning beauty like the silver-haired woman, stripped naked in front of him, wouldn't arouse him the slightest interest.
Besides, damn it, she's not a woman at all, damn it, she's not even human.
Three years ago, he became a cripple because of her.
Umir is the name of the being who has taken the form of a woman; this creature is an evil god.
Gu Yan is a genius. Even in a place like Earth where spiritual energy is almost completely depleted, he was able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage and then break through the void to leave.
Although he ultimately died, he was overjoyed to have successfully reincarnated with his memories, arriving in the spiritually rich Yunlan Realm, or rather, Yunlan Star.
One year to establish the foundation, two years to form the core, three years to reach the nascent soul, four years to transform into the spirit, and five years to refine the void.
Three years ago, when she went out to search for spiritual herbs, she encountered this guy, Umir, in a distorted spatial crevice. At that time, he was still in the form of a man. As soon as he saw Gu Yan, he became lustful and wanted to do something inappropriate for children with Gu Yan on the spot.
Gu Yan was determined to die rather than submit, but unfortunately, she couldn't win in a fight, so she could only resort to scheming against Umir.
However, although he successfully sealed Umir's true form, he paid a heavy price—his cultivation was destroyed. It took him three years to recover to only the early stage of Core Formation.
Although Umir's true form was sealed and he was trapped in the Demon Refining Pot, unable to move, he could still release a little power to harass Gu Yan in various ways. This guy transformed into a woman and flirted with Gu Yan in every way.
"It hurts! It hurts so much!" Umir said, tears welling up in her jewel-like eyes. She clutched her breast with one hand, "Brother Yan, you hit me so hard!"
Gu Yan was disgusted by her calling him "Brother Yan." He said, "You old geezer who's hundreds of thousands of years old, how dare you call me brother? Aren't you disgusting?"
"If not Brother Yan, then how about Husband? My Lord? My Gu Lang? Darling? Sweetheart? Is that alright? Or do you prefer me to call you Master?"
