Book 6: Chapter 069: Revival Convention

One year passed in the blink of an eye. The Revival Convention was imminent.

All the factions invited by the Heavenly Go Pavilion made their way to the Thousand Islands Sea.

Hall of Great Strength, Spirit Mountain Holy Land:

Di Shitian’s entire body emanated a black aura, and his eyes faintly shimmered red.

“Di Shitian, how do you feel now?” the Past Buddha asked with a frown.

“I managed to do what Kong Xuan did. Haha! The bloodthirst is worrying, but it’s fine; I can suppress it,” Di Shitian said coldly.

“That’s good. Since that is the case, you will come with us to the Thousand Islands Sea,” the Past Buddha said.

“Alright.” Di Shitian nodded.

“Bodhisattva Han Shan!” The Past Buddha turned to a monk sitting upright outside.

The monk stood up. “Present!”

Before the monk stepped into the hall, he bowed to the Three Lives Buddhas. The Three Lives Buddhas bowed back to him.

“Bodhisattva Han Shan, you previously obtained Old Mister Guan Qi’s inheritance. We benefited a lot from you applying it to Buddhist studies. While you are a bodhisattva, you are also a Buddhist master,” the Past Buddha said seriously.

“Lord Buddha is generous with his praise. Han Shan only obtained Old Mister Guan Qi’s inheritance by coincidence and became one of Guan Qi’s nine inheritors. Some of the theories were left by Old Mister Guan Qi. This disciple just repeated them. Unexpectedly, Old Mister Guan Qi was well versed in Buddhist studies. Truly an extraordinary person,” Bodhisattva Han Shan said with awe.

“Amitābha! Something major will happen at the Revival Convention. There must be a deeper meaning to Guan Qi’s nine inheritors. If there is any conflict, just do as you please without worrying. The Spirit Mountain Holy Land will back you,” the Present Buddha said, gazing at Bodhisattva Han Shan.

“Yes! Many thanks, Lord Buddha!” Bodhisattva Han Shan responded with gratitude.

“It is about time. Let’s go!” the Future Buddha said.

Everyone nodded.

Then, they left the Hall of Great Strength.

The Three Lives Buddhas, Di Shitian, and Bodhisattva Han Shan stood on a cloud and flew east towards the Thousand Islands Sea.

“Respectfully sending off the Lord Buddhas!” countless bodhisattvas and arhats said reverently.

Divine Yan Hall, Divine Farmer City, Yan Heavenly Dynasty:

“Old fogey, why can’t I go?” The red-clad woman, Jingwei, glared at Jiang Lianshan.

Jiang Lianshan lowered his head and looked at his youngest daughter. He shook his head gravely. “Jingwei, I need you to defend the nation in my absence.”

“That is just an excuse!” Jing Wei complained, scowling.

“No. Who knows what will happen during the Revival Convention? I might not be able to return for some time. However, if something happens at the capital…,” Jiang Lianshan said worriedly.

“Humph! The Revival Convention? If I can’t go, so be it. Also, old fogey, since you are going, stop hiding your strength. Just kill who you should,” Jingwei said, feeling helpless.

“There’s my obedient girl!” Jiang Lianshan said with a satisfied smile.

“Humph!” Jingwei snorted coldly.

“White Emperor, Scarlet Emperor, Flame Monarch, let’s go!” Jiang Lianshan said.

“Yes!”

Boom!

The group immediately soared into the sky, turning into beams of light shooting towards the Thousand Islands Sea.

“Your Holy Eminence, you did not let the princess come because…,” the White Emperor said, some apprehension shadowing her eyes.

“The Revival Convention does not seem to be an ordinary event. We sense great danger,” Jiang Lianshan said.

“Danger? Will Old Mister Guan Qi continue rebelling against Heaven after he revives? However, even if he does, we won’t help him. What danger would there be?” the red-clad Scarlet Emperor asked with a frown.

The Scarlet Emperor was an extremely handsome man. He looked like a weak scholar but had a sharp light in his eyes. Holding the title of the Scarlet Emperor proved that he was a powerful person.

“Perhaps we are overthinking.” Jiang Lianshan frowned, worry flashing in his eyes.

“The Azure Emperor is one of Guan Qi’s nine inheritors. Now that he has come back to life, what should we do about him, Your Holy Eminence?” The White Emperor frowned.

“The Azure Emperor came from the Yan Heavenly Dynasty. No matter what he did, he was your previous comrade, wasn’t he?” Jiang Lianshan smiled.

“Your Holy Eminence means that if Guan Qi’s nine inheritors fight each other, we are to assist the Azure Emperor with everything we have?” The White Emperor’s expression changed.

Jiang Lianshan did not say anything. That was considered tacit agreement.

They disappeared into the horizon.

——

Borderless Heavenly Capital:

Gu Hai looked at the Mosquito Daoist.

“Help you to watch over your home again?” the Mosquito Daoist said with a strange expression.

“Indeed. Consider it the third favor. What do you think? Or do you want to participate in the Revival Convention?” Gu Hai asked.

“You must be joking! Even if you beat me to death, I will never go to that nonsense Revival Convention of Old Mister Guan Qi! You guys go. I’ll watch Borderless Heavenly Capital. No one will dare to come,” the Mosquito Daoist immediately cried out.

“Thank you for your hard work!” Gu Hai nodded, then turned to the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access. “Sect Master Heavenly Access, shall we go?”

Sect Master Heavenly Access nodded.

Gu Hai took to the sky with Kong Xuan, Ao Shun, Shangguan Hen, and Mo Yike.

“Respectfully sending off Your Reverence!” the officials saluted deferentially.

The group of six headed for the Revival Convention.

With Sect Master Heavenly Access bringing the five, they moved extremely quickly and reached the Thousand Islands Sea in no time.

“It should be close,” Gu Hai called out.

Boom!

Intense winds stirred up the surrounding seawater when they stopped.

Gu Hai took out a flying ship, and the group boarded it.

He left the helm to Shangguan Hen as the flying ship headed slowly into the depths of the Thousand Islands Sea.

From high in the sky, Gu Hai looked down at the many islands below.

“The Thousand Islands Sea? The atmosphere here is not quite right,” Sect Master Heavenly Access said with a frown.

“The atmosphere?” Ao Shun said, feeling puzzled.

“We entered a ritual array,” Gu Hai said with a smile.

“Entered a ritual array? That can’t be, right? The place looks the same as what we just saw,” Shangguan Hen said doubtfully.

“It looks the same, but it is not. This ritual array is extremely well concealed. If not for our understanding of the Go Dao’s ritual arrays or Sect Master Heavenly Access’s fine observation skills, it would not be easy to see. The surrounding islands have been moved,” Gu Hai said with a frown.

“The islands have been moved? Your Reverence, this official recalls that my Han Nation has countless scouts in the Thousand Islands Sea. None of them reported any changes in the islands,” Mo Yike said, his brows knitting.

“They changed, but our scouts can’t tell. We could tell by the flow of the surrounding seawater. The islands themselves have not moved. However, the islands function as Go stones. Some of the islands turned from black Go stones to white, and some turned from white to black,” Gu Hai said.

“Oh?” Mo Yike’s face sank.

“This should be Old Mister Guan Qi’s doing. He has already come back to life?” Gu Hai said with an unsightly expression.

The flying ship coursed towards the Thousand Islands Sea’s center, heading for Tengen Island.

Before the flying ship arrived, it slowed down as there were hundreds of other flying ships around Tengen Island already.

The flying ship did not continue towards Tengen Island but stopped in the vicinity.

There were countless experts from all over the world on the various flying ships.

Gu Hai sensed a ferocious gaze on him from a distance.

“It’s him!” Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.

Gu Hai followed the direction of Sect Master Heavenly Access’s gaze and saw a group of people of both genders on a distant flying ship. The leader was the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Sect Master Heavenly Access.

The two Sect Master Heavenly Accesses exchanged cold looks. Gu Hai happened to be between them, and he sensed a murderous intent in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access’s gaze.

Gu Hai’s arrival caused a commotion among the surrounding experts.

Several experts turned their heads to look.

“The Three Lives Buddhas? Di Shitian? Humph!” Kong Xuan suddenly looked in another direction with an icy gaze.

The Three Lives Buddhas and Di Shitian frowned as they looked over from a golden flying ship. They stared at the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access, appearing slightly confused.

After all, the Spirit Mountain Holy Land was familiar with the experts in the world. The sudden appearance of a Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access was outside their calculations.

“Imperial Emperor Gu, how have you been?” Laughter came from another flying ship.

This was the first group to greet Gu Hai. He turned his head to look and saw Jiang Lianshan smiling at him. Beside Jiang Lianshan were the White Emperor, the Scarlet Emperor, and the Flame Monarch.

“Greetings, Yan Heavenly Emperor!” Gu Hai returned the greeting with a smile.

Long Shenying and Long Aotian stood on a distant flying ship, looking at Gu Hai with mixed feelings.

On another side, Long Shenwu and Ao Sheng frowned heavily at Gu Hai.

Back in the Western Sea, Long Shenwu had not thought much of Gu Hai. When Gu Hai slapped him twice at the dragon’s gate’s area, he had felt resentful. Initially, he had sent Ao Sheng to cause trouble for Gu Hai at Borderless Heavenly Capital. Unexpectedly, Gu Hai strangely managed to recruit Kong Xuan, then used a ritual array to manifest a Sect Master Heavenly Access. Most importantly, that manifested Sect Master Heavenly Access fought the real Sect Master Heavenly Access to a draw. This immensely frustrated Long Shenwu.

There were other formidable people in the surroundings. Gu Hai looked around and silently memorized their faces, not greeting anyone. Everyone stared at Gu Hai for a while. After all, no one here was easy to deal with.

Only now did Gu Hai turn his attention to Tengen Island.

Previously, Tengen Island had been in a sorry state, ravaged by incessant heavenly lightning and lacking life. Tengen Island had since changed, now carpeted with lush greenery, teeming with life, and dotted with many pavilion buildings, presenting a beautiful scene.

“This is the Innate Puzzle World?” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.

“The Innate Puzzle World of the past has opened up and merged with Tengen Island?” Mo Yike said, feeling curious.

Gu Hai nodded.

“This was the scene in the Innate Puzzle World. It seems that when Long Zhanguo fought Heaven, Heaven stopped monitoring Tengen Island,” Gu Hai said seriously.

He noticed many black tortoises and numerous Heavenly Go Pavilion disciples roaming Tengen Island’s surroundings.

Gu Hai was very familiar with the various scenes on Tengen Island. After all, he had caused a lot of trouble here back when he was in the Innate Realm.

“There is something off with that large palace hall.” Sect Master Heavenly Access suddenly pointed to a palace hall in the distance.

There was a cluster of buildings in the middle of Tengen Island; a large palace hall was at the center of those buildings. That palace hall had a signboard “Guan Qi Hall.”

At this moment, many black-robed men stood at the entrance to Guan Qi Hall—the Heavenly Go Pavilion elders and Prime Feng Yue.

Nine white-robed men presented a striking contrast. Gu Hai did not even need to guess. Those were Guan Qi’s nine inheritors. Right now, they stood respectfully at Guan Qi Palace’s entrance. Gu Hai knew seven of them: Gu Qin, the Azure Emperor, Guan Ninth, Long Sanqian, Wu Yazi, Yan Qingshan, and the Spirit Mountain Holy Land’s Bodhisattva Han Shan.

Guan Qi’s nine inheritors noticed Gu Hai when Gu Hai’s flying ship arrived. Guan Ninth immediately soared into the sky and flew to him.

Whoosh!

Guan Ninth instantly arrived.

“Imperial Emperor Gu, you’re finally here!” Guan Ninth smiled as he landed on the deck of Gu Hai’s flying ship.

“Greetings, Ninth Young Master!” Gu Hai smiled back.
