After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 547 - 356: Chu Meng: You Still Claim You Don’t Fancy the Commandery Princess_2
In order to change the topic, Gu An immediately asked the question he wanted to ask: "Senior, do you know about the realm above Returning to Void?"
"You haven’t advanced yet?" Chu Meng asked.
This question left Gu An a bit dumbfounded.
You really think highly of me.
He always felt that the person in front of him really didn’t understand cultivation at all.
"Senior has advanced?" Gu An countered.
"Yes, didn’t you see that I’m already at the Golden Core Early Stage?" Chu Meng casually said.
Gu An looked at the other person in some surprise: "Isn’t Senior only twenty-four years old?"
"How many years ago was that?" Chu Meng said with a bit of nostalgia: "I’m already twenty-seven. A Golden Core at twenty-seven, I’m a genius in the sect.
With such a genius superior like me, you’ll be able to walk horizontally in the future."
Walking horizontally isn’t very auspicious.
He wanted to walk vertically.
After a pause, Gu An finally came to his senses and said, "Isn’t Senior above Returning to Void?"
"What nonsense are you speaking? I’m just at the Golden Core Early Stage, okay?" Chu Meng said seriously.
Gu An looked at the other person, and the other person was also staring with wide eyes at the person in front of them.
Their eyes met.
Gu An stayed silent again.
If you’re at Golden Core, why can’t I see through it?
Finally, Gu An said, "Why don’t you tell me about the realm above Returning to Void, Senior?"
"Beyond Returning to Void is Refining Void and Building Bridge," Chu Meng thought for a moment and said: "To enter this realm, you must reflect yourself in the Primordial Spirit, gather the innate energy of heaven and earth, and then draw out the Immortal Bridge.
But the Immortal Bridge is illusory, unreachable.
Only by gathering the Innate Five Qi to build steps, and then lighting the Three Flowers to illuminate the path ahead, can you see the Three Thousand Great Dao.
This forges the Immortal Bridge.
Cross the bridge to reach the Other Shore.
Furthermore, each Qi forms a step, each flower a realm.
The implication is that after entering the Immortal Bridge Realm, there are five steps, and these steps don’t differ much in difficulty, just early and late stages.
But once the Three Flowers are lit.
The difference becomes enormous, comparable to a major realm."
Upon hearing this, Gu An was somewhat surprised, then asked, "So, does that mean the Immortal Bridge has eight stages?"
"Yes, once the Three Flowers are lit, a person is directly on the bridge," Chu Meng said while eating a pastry: "However, the first five steps are easier to break through, but it gets harder afterwards."
Gu An felt it didn’t make much difference for him.
Eight stages, he’d have to endure eight times of hard cultivation.
This realm would hold him back for a long time.
What a pity.
Curious, he asked: "What realm do you reach after the Other Shore?"
"The Other Shore?" Chu Meng put down the pastry, took a sip of the water he brought, and said: "Naturally, it means shedding the mortal body."
"Which stage is Senior at in the Immortal Bridge Realm?" Gu An asked seemingly casually.
Upon hearing this, Chu Meng paused and said: "Golden Core Early Stage."
Gu An: "...."
What a pity.
Couldn’t get an instinctive response from the other person.
"Here, take this." Saying this, Chu Meng handed a book to Gu An.
Gu An took it and found it was actually insights on advancing to the Immortal Bridge Realm.
"As your superior, I’m always thinking about you. If you were to like me and reject the Commandery Princess, I think it would be understandable.
But you absolutely mustn’t do that, as the Commandery Princess is your destiny," Chu Meng said while eating from the peanut platter.
Gu An always thought his superior wasn’t quite right in the head.
Not liking or not liking should be straightforward; cultivators should be without desires.
Gu An felt that if necessary, he could always give the Seven Emotions and Six Desires tome to the other person.
Let her relax her mind.
"Has anyone tried to win you over lately?" Chu Meng asked.
Gu An, eating, raised his eyebrows and looked across, saying: "No one’s won me over, but there have been threats."
Chu Meng was somewhat surprised: "You mean the business with your second team?"
Gu An nodded: "Senior knows about it?"
"Yes, the Main Court was threatened, and then the targeting of the second team was resolved. Weren’t you the one who threatened them?" Chu Meng curiously asked.
"It wasn’t me." Gu An was somewhat innocent.
So does that mean the Second Institute is not threatened anymore?
"It wasn’t you?" Chu Meng looked at Gu An and asked: "Then who was it?"
"How would I know?" Gu An retorted.
"Why would they threaten you? One would think that someone like you should be courted instead." Chu Meng couldn’t figure it out: "Is there really someone stupid enough, at this point, to make an enemy of you?
You’re on the Merit List, could potentially be in a marriage alliance.
You lead the First Institute and have unclear relations with the Law Enforcement Hall.
You can often enter the Luo Sheng Hall.
For someone like you, who can stay in the Sect, there shouldn’t be anyone deliberately opposing you."
Upon hearing this, Gu An didn’t have any intention of concealing, he spoke truthfully: "Because the Inner Sect sends someone, what they actually want is this person."
Chu Meng looked surprised: "What person?"
"Chen Changfeng." Gu An said.
Then he talked about the person’s background and some experiences, recounted it all.
Many already know.
As long as Chu Meng wants, she can know.
There was no point in hiding it.
Upon hearing, Chu Meng looked shocked: "You actually have such a person under your command? No wonder you complete tasks so quickly.
Are you planning to hand this task over to him again?"
Gu An was stunned.
Your focus is actually on this?
After pondering for a moment, Gu An shook his head, saying: "I also don’t dare to use Chen Changfeng, he’s too dangerous."
Using Chen Changfeng once means facing unknown problems.
Giving him a break, initially, I thought of not recruiting him.
However, wanting to be a good person, again keeping him around.
Troubles came one after another.
Really gives me a headache.
If I send him out to complete tasks again, my small body really can’t bear it.
Chu Meng didn’t ask more about this, instead picking up peanuts and talking about other things: "Six Courtyard previously caused quite a bit of conflict, even Inner Sect fought several times.
Heard recently had peace talks, before the results come out, there won’t be any more minor actions.
Which side threatened you?"
"Spirit Controlling Peak." Gu An answered.
"Seems like they’ve been hit the hardest these days, looks like they won’t deal with you anymore." Chu Meng said.
Gu An was somewhat surprised.
Didn’t expect the situation to develop like this.
However, who exactly helped him, he had to ask Pang Wen.
Logically, some people who do good deeds will definitely leave their names.
Otherwise, isn’t it done for nothing?
But no rush, first improve cultivation.
After eating, Chu Meng got up to leave.
Before leaving, she also told Gu An to be careful, next time there will be small shoes.
Furthermore, told him not to call her senior anymore, call her elder sister.
Gu An didn’t answer, just watched the other leave.
Thus, Gu An returned to the room and then released the Red Armor Soldier.
After ensuring the surrounding environment is safe, Gu An started reading the insights left behind by Chu Meng.
If everything goes smoothly, then tonight he can try to enhance cultivation.
...
Nanyue Chenzhou.
A man shrouded in mist was walking step by step toward the direction of the sea.
An item sent from East Dao Ancient State would appear here today.
He spent a lot to bring it over.
Usually, it would take the least a few months to get to him.
But he couldn’t wait anymore.
Because only by getting this item, he could plan the next steps.
At dusk.
He finally got the item.
It was a small box with many seals on it.
"Ordinary sealing technique, looks like Dongfang Changli’s power is quite average, but it could also be she’s not skilled in this field."
With that said, the man casually broke the seal and took out the item inside.
A bead containing stars fell into his hand.
The man was somewhat puzzled while holding the Star Spirit Pearl.
"Why is there a flame inside? It looks somewhat vigorous."
"Nine Heavens Divine Monarch’s technique?"
He didn’t expect it to be a complete item sent over.
But now is different from the past, Nine Heavens Divine Monarch is destined to bow down at his feet.
With this in mind, he began probing the Star Spirit Pearl.
As long as the flame was extinguished, he could use the bead normally.
It would be extremely helpful to him.
Just as he was probing the flame inside the bead.
Instantly, the mist around the man stagnated, then he yelped and jumped backwards, retreating repeatedly.
Even threw the bead held in his hand away.
In astonishment, he used force to pull back the bead.
Looking at the flame inside the bead, he was both shocked and angry, finally yelling: "Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, your ancestors must have been lacking virtue to give birth to you."
