Chapter 596: The Disgrace of All Transmigrators
Gu Nan stood in the sky above Void Grotto Heaven, indifferently gazing at all the living beings below while the shadows continued their onslaught.
Fully destroying Void Grotto Heaven was a plan Gu Nan established long ago, so that decision wouldn’t be easily changed by external factors.
He’d always acted without any care for others, and after reaching his current realm, there were even fewer people who could influence him.
But just when Gu Nan was carrying out his plan, three figures slowly floated into the air. They were two men and one woman, all dressed as Daoist priests.
Of the two men, there was one old and one young. The young man had a fair appearance. His height only reached Gu Nan's waist, but the expression on his face was calm and collected, unlike that of a child.
The old man looked like he had one foot in the grave. His whole person looked haggard, as if he was about to die any second.
The woman was even weirder. She was clearly dressed as a simple Daoist nun, and her expression was also calm and solemn, but she had an inexplicable seductive charm. This didn't seem to be something she did intentionally. Rather, she seemed to naturally exude such an aura.
To be honest, it was really rare to see such a Daoist nun in the peaceful Void Grotto Heaven.
The leader of the three was the old man. He came up to Gu Nan and gave a deep bow. "This old Daoist, Shu Huan, greets Your Excellency. Please have mercy."
This was a rare occurrence where Gu Nan didn't directly punch the opponent to death—because the old Daoist priest was holding something in his hand.
It was an open scroll with four names written on it: Jiu Po, Daoist Yellow Springs, Snow Mountain Ascetic, as well as… Gu Nan.
To know of Daoist Yellow Springs’ existence and to list him together with Jiu Po and Gu Nan, it was clear that Void Grotto Heaven—the leader of the Myriad Heavens—did indeed know something.
However, even though he didn’t attack them, the shadows were still rapidly invading all directions.
The woman couldn't help speaking up hastily, "Your Excellency, please stop. Our Void Grotto Heaven has countless scrolls recording ancient secrets and also has—"
Gu Nan interrupted coldly, "I have no interest in ancient times. What right do those old farts who died in the river of time have to make me waste time learning about them?"
Having a long history has never been a big deal. How powerful Void Grotto Heaven’s ancestors were was none of Gu Nan's business.
If not for the four names in Shu Huan's hands, he wouldn't even have given the three a chance to speak.
His eyes shifted to the old Daoist, Shu Huan, and asked in a low voice, "Who is the Snow Mountain Ascetic?"
It was merely a casual question; Gu Nan didn't really care whether the other party answered or not. Of course it would be best if they were willing to answer. But if they weren’t willing to answer, then he would simply look for the answer after slaughtering all of Void Grotto Heaven.
However, this Daoist Shu Huan looked very honest and quickly explained, "The Snow Mountain Ascetic died 23,000 years ago. Records of his life, experience, and history are all in Void Grotto Heaven. Your Excellency, please follow this old Daoist to have a look. "
The child-like Daoist priest also spoke at this time, but his voice sounded very aged, carrying the hoarseness of a middle-aged man.
"As long as Your Excellency can allow Void Grotto Heaven a sliver of survival, Yu Lian can be yours to deal with." While he said this, he even glanced at the woman next to him. "The same goes for her older sister, Yu Luo."
Only then did Gu Nan learn that this woman was actually Yu Lian's older sister. While he did hear people mention Yu Lian having a sister before, he'd never seen her.
When Yu Luo heard this, she couldn't help turning around in shock with a somewhat dazed stare filled with bewilderment. Clearly, this was not within the scope of their previous agreement.
Gu Nan's gaze paused on them for a while. The shadows’ invasion finally stopped, and all the shadows in the sky withdrew behind Gu Nan.
"Take me to the information on the Snow Mountain Ascetic," Gu Nan told Daoist Shu Huan.
Daoist Shu Huan bowed again, then turned and led Gu Nan away.
……
In the Daoist Sect’s grand temple, Gu Nan stood in front of a bookshelf dozens of stories high, flipping through a file in his hand.
This was originally the residence of Daoist Sect’s sect master, but now that Yu Lian already lost that position, this temple temporarily belonged to Gu Nan.
It wasn’t that he had any interest in the Daoist Sect. It’s just that all the information he wanted was here.
After he finished reading one file, Gu Nan casually put it aside. The file automatically floated to a certain location on the bookshelf, and another file appeared out of thin air in Gu Nan's hand.
All these documents were related to the Snow Mountain Ascetic.
The Snow Mountain Ascetic’s surname was Wang, but his real name had already been lost in time. The world only knew that he liked to call himself the Snow Mountain Ascetic. He even called his residence the Snow Mountain Residence and established a small sect called the Snow Mountain Sect.
But it was precisely such a person who had a special fondness for "Snow Mountain" who showed amazing foresight as soon as he appeared.
Be it his judgment of situations or his understanding of various martial arts, they were both far superior to that of ordinary people. More importantly, he once made predictions about major events in the Myriad Heavens and even profited from them.
After this kind of behavior happened many times, Void Grotto Heaven began to take special note of him.
In Gu Nan's eyes, this person was clearly the same type of person as Molag. Their behavioral trajectories were too similar.
But the strange thing was that this Snow Mountain Ascetic did not survive. He didn’t even get to become a Star Ruler and actually died in a small world.
"He’s simply the disgrace of all transmigrators," Gu Nan couldn't help shaking his head and muttering to himself.
But once he read further, Gu Nan also realized that this was not entirely the Snow Mountain Ascetic’s fault. It’s just that this person was a little too unlucky.
He hadn’t even reached Void Cutter Realm yet when he died and wasn’t even qualified to leave that small world, but he unexpectedly ran into a fight between two foreign visitors.
The two Star Rulers fought inside that small plane. The battlefield was very close to Snow Mountain Sect, and the Snow Mountain Ascetic died because of this.
‘If he’s truly a transmigrator with knowledge of history, he should know that it’s absolutely impossible for him to oppose Star Rulers at that time.’
‘If that's the case, why did he insist on staying in the sect instead of temporarily retreating?’ Gu Nan had some doubts in his mind, but he then thought of a possibility.
Sure enough, Daoist Shu Huan piped up from the side, "Although the Snow Mountain Ascetic died in that battle, his Snow Mountain Sect survived and remains there to this day."
"Is there anything strange about it?" Gu Nan raised an eyebrow.
"Yes." Daoist Shu Huan nodded. "There is a building in the Snow Mountain Sect that has not decayed for over 20,000 years. If Snow Mountain Sect disciples enter it, they will get a special fortuitous encounter."
No matter what the so-called fortuitous encounter was, the mere fact of enduring for 20,000 years was enough to confirm Gu Nan’s suspicions.
This power must be from the Origin World’s origin!
Not even Jiu Po and Daoist Yellow Springs noticed such a weak Snow Mountain Ascetic, but Void Grotto Heaven did.
Moreover, Void Grotto Heaven didn't even know where Gu Nan and the others came from, let alone the existence of the Origin World. They simply noticed the strange circumstances surrounding these transmigrators and felt these people were connected in some way.
As the leader of the Myriad Heavens, Void Grotto Heaven had an astronomical amount of information. After rigorous analysis and comparison, it wasn’t difficult to come up with such a conclusion.
So Gu Nan patted Shu Huan on the shoulder and commented, "Big data sure is reliable."
