Chapter 870: Above the Origin Realm
Gu Heng enjoyed a few carefree days.
Since the world's origin was repaired and the entire Xuantian Realm was reunited, the anticipated massive upheaval did not occur. Everything was stable, and the four worlds of Immortal, Demon, Ancient Netherworld seemed to have quickly accepted the fact that they had merged with the Xuantian Realm...
Everyone seemed to have settled down. At least Gu Heng hadn't experienced "liveliness" in a long time, especially not in his own courtyard.
In the courtyard, Gu Heng and Jin Qian sat on either side of a stone table. A chessboard was carved on the table, and Gu Heng easily made a complete set of chess pieces. The rules were also suitable for all ages, and no one present could not understand them.
Qin Yiyao was sitting on Gu Heng's recliner, drinking tea and watching the battle.
The system's petite, semi-transparent female projection sat next to Gu Heng, seemingly trying to analyze every step of the confrontation between the two.
"Young Master Gu, this chess game is indeed quite interesting."
As Jin Qian was once again brought to his death by Gu Heng, he shrugged helplessly.
He had been playing with this for several days and had figured it out thoroughly, but he had never won against Gu Heng.
But winning or losing is a small matter; he just thinks this thing is quite fun.
"Hmm, it must be interesting, otherwise it wouldn't be so popular."
Gu Heng's lips curved slightly, looking particularly pleased. Although beating newbies didn't really give him a sense of accomplishment, winning was still exhilarating!
"Who else wants to come and play?"
Gu Heng glanced at the little girl. However, Qin Yiyao simply shook her head and said, "I can't beat Master, so I don't want to play."
She felt there was no need to humiliate herself.
"how about you?"
Gu Heng looked at the little white cat lying on his lap.
Su Jinxi licked her paws, then changed her position and continued to rest on his lap with her eyes closed. She clearly did not want to show her human form to play chess with Gu Heng, and preferred to rest her head on Gu Heng's lap. She would occasionally open her cat eyes and look at Qin Yiyao meaningfully.
If looks could kill, this little girl's gaze would have already pierced several holes in Su Jinxi.
Seeing this, Gu Heng didn't mind. He reached out and stroked the kitten's soft back twice. The kitten comfortably closed its eyes, as if it had fallen asleep.
This is how leisurely it is right now.
Gu Heng naturally didn't want his rare moment of relaxation interrupted. However, when Hua Yeli rushed into the desolate city, he knew that today wouldn't be any more relaxing and enjoyable.
"Mr. Gu!"
"Something bad happened!"
Hua Yeli's expression was solemn. As soon as she entered the room, she told everyone about the return of the mysterious expert known as "Zero" and his request to find Gu Heng.
"...That guy said he'd give me ten days. If he can't find Mr. Gu within ten days, he'll probably have to resort to force."
Soon, the atmosphere in the courtyard changed from relaxed and cheerful to dull and oppressive.
Or rather, anger began to spread.
Everyone present respected Gu Heng. Recently, Jue Tian Pavilion had done something extraordinary, something that was unprecedented and unlikely to be repeated. If anyone dared to name and cause trouble for Gu Heng, they would be courting death!
But now that Gu Heng hasn't spoken, while everyone is eager to fight the enemy, they still have to listen to his opinions.
"Tsk, where did this guy come from?"
Gu Heng gripped the chess piece, the wrinkles between his brows deepening. He looked up, and the island suspended in the sky became exceptionally clear.
It's all mechanical.
No wonder there was such a huge commotion before.
Even he had forgotten that Ning Hanyan had deliberately come from the Demon Realm to warn him. Gu Heng had paid some attention to it then, but the major events that had recently occurred were all of great importance. From the reunification of the Xuan Tian Realm to the "evolution" of the system, his mind gradually stopped paying attention to the threats.
but.
Threats don't just disappear on their own.
Now that Zero has come knocking again. Regardless of why he suddenly disappeared before, he probably won't leave until he gets what he wants! "Hmph!"
"Who cares who he is? How dare he be so arrogant? He's got a death wish!"
Jin Qian slapped his thigh, stood up, and shouted angrily, "I'd like to know where this blind fool came from, daring to say such things in this territory!"
Who in the Xuantian Realm doesn't know the name of Jue Tian Pavilion these days?
Within the Jue Tian Pavilion, Gu Heng is the most respected!
Coming all the way to the Xuan Tian Realm to say such things, they really don't take them seriously at all!
It's likely that "Zero" never expected that Jue Tian Ge was actually Gu Heng's faction, and now he's run right into them.
"That guy used to make the Most Demonic Tower and the Supreme Immortal Palace obedient to him, so he must have some powerful background."
“We shouldn’t let our guard down.” Hua Yeli frowned.
"In front of my master, aren't the Most Demonic Tower and the Supreme Immortal Palace just ants that can be crushed at will?"
Qin Yiyao, who hadn't spoken until now, said coldly.
If we were to compare those two forces, it would be really hard to say which one is right. After all, the Most Demonic Tower and the Extreme Immortal Palace have been tyrannical for a long time, but they have never been able to even touch the threshold of the Origin Realm.
But Gu Heng can produce two Origin Realm experts in one go!
"and many more."
"There is something I must tell you."
at this time.
The ancient tree, sitting beneath the Seven Realms Sacred Tree and seemingly isolated from heaven and earth, suddenly spoke.
As soon as he spoke, everyone's eyes immediately turned to him.
There's nothing else to it. It's just that the old tree is very powerful, but its behavior is also very strange. Whenever it has the chance to come to the desolate city, it will sit directly under that holy white tree, and once it sits down, it seems to turn into stone, unchanging through the ages.
It's truly a miracle that he can speak.
"What brilliant idea do you have?" Gu Heng raised an eyebrow.
"Before I came to the Xuan Tian Realm, I encountered seven people of unknown origin but extremely strong in the endless void."
"I can't understand why they're discussing things in groups, but one thing is clear: they've all gone their separate ways to the seven great realms in this endless void!"
The old tree still remembers that scene.
He will never forget the look in those seven people's eyes when they looked at him at the end.
He possessed overwhelming power, but those seven people were far stronger than him, and they considered how to deal with him with the tone of someone disregarding ants. One of them, a man with a body of metal, only his head intact, was determined to kill him!
If it weren't for another woman intervening, he would have died before even seeing Gu Heng.
Even so, the woman didn't care whether he lived or died, and the old tree could tell that.
"One of them fits the description. His body is made of metal, and his head looks like a normal human. He is probably the 'Zero' you mentioned. The name is the same as the one I heard!"
"They're probably all here for you."
The old tree looked at Gu Heng, and Gu Heng suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure, and goosebumps appeared all over his body.
"In the Origin Heaven Realm, there is a mysterious and powerful figure who calls himself 'Kasyapa Buddha,' wielding a power never heard of in the endless void. Could it be...?"
Xiao Bai naturally recalled his past experience. That guy who kept talking about "Buddhism" might just be one of those seven people!
"Really?"
With Lao Shu and Xiao Bai mentioning it together, Jin Qian, who had been particularly confident before, began to ponder carefully. After a while, he asked, "Do you two know what kind of strength those seven people possess?"
"What kind of strength..."
Old Tree and Little White exchanged a glance.
"I'm afraid it's beyond the Origin Realm and the Heavenly Dao!"
Only those above the Origin Realm can exert pressure, or even fear, that even a novice cannot resist.
"Above the Origin Realm?"
Everyone present was completely baffled.
They had only recently learned about the "Mortal Realm" and the "Supreme Realm," and the same was true for the Origin Realm.
But beyond the Origin Realm, is there any other realm? Little White remained silent, only looking at the old tree.
The old tree shrugged and slowly said, "There are indeed new realms above the Origin Realm, although I don't know if it's true or not..."
Above the Origin Realm lies the 'World Realm'.
