Chapter 438 The Sacred Heart Sword Path, Gu An's Changes
After inheriting Yang Xian's memories, Gu An received Yang Xian's swordsmanship inheritance, which was the swordsmanship he had accumulated throughout his life.

Sacred Heart Sword Path!

This way of swordsmanship is based on the mind; whatever the mind thinks can be transformed into one's own sword.

Flowers, grass, trees, mountains, rivers, seas, all living things, the sun, moon, and stars can be swords!
Yang Xian even wanted to transform the Three Thousand Great Daos into his own sword, but his swordsmanship had not yet truly reached the level of the Great Daos, so it could only be a thought for the time being.

After Gu An had fully absorbed Yang Xian's memories, he opened his eyes and a day had passed.

It may have seemed like only one day, but he experienced a cycle of reincarnation. The memories were so vivid, as if he had personally experienced them.

He is Yang Xian, but he is not entirely Yang Xian. To be precise, Yang Xian is only a part of Gu An. This feeling is very mysterious.

Yang Xian brought Gu An not only the Sacred Heart Sword Dao, but also an understanding of many great Daos.

Even Gu An was amazed by Yang Xian's comprehension. Without the evolution of lifespan, Yang Xian's understanding of the Great Dao was extremely profound, stronger than that of other reincarnated bodies.

Gu An glanced at the lifespan consumed by the lifespan barrier; it wasn't much. He stood up and stepped back to the Hidden Spirit Palace.

The deep-sea dragon carp was cultivating when it heard footsteps. It opened its eyes and saw Gu An return. It was overjoyed and quickly got up to ask, "Master, why are you back again?"

Gu An looked at him and said, "Didn't you want some fighting techniques? How about I teach you a sword technique?"

"Of course, thank you, Master!"

The deep-sea dragon carp immediately thanked Gu An and excitedly approached him with a look of anticipation.

Gu An didn't say much, and began to teach him swordsmanship, guiding him to cultivate the Sacred Heart Sword Dao from some simple sword techniques.

Deep-sea dragon carp sensed a change in Gu An's demeanor, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Instead, he felt that Gu An commanded even more respect.

This is Yang Xian's memory influencing Gu An.

Yang Xian, known as the Holy Ancestor of Swordsmanship, often preached the Dao, and his saintly demeanor was hard to conceal, which had begun to influence Gu An.

The merging of reincarnation memories will inevitably affect Gu An to some extent.

An hour later, Gu An returned to the Third Medicine Valley. After walking down from the teleportation platform, Gu An was greeted by disciples one after another.

"Do you feel that Master has changed?"

"You noticed it too?"

"Indeed, could it be that he has achieved another breakthrough?"

"How could we possibly imagine Master's level of cultivation? Don't forget who's behind him."

The disciples watched Gu An's retreating figure, whispering among themselves. Some even tried to flatter him, knowing that Gu An could hear them.

When Gu An arrived at the pavilion, even the Blood Prison Great Sage was surprised by the change in his demeanor.

Has the master's cultivation improved again?
He developed an admiration for Gu An, and the stronger Gu An became, the happier he was, because he decided to follow Gu An for the rest of his life.

"It doesn't necessarily have to be a thousand years. Be prepared."

Gu An stopped and said this to the Blood Prison Great Sage.

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage of Blood Prison was stunned, and the hair on the bull's body began to flutter, as if blood flames were burning.

Gu An continued upstairs and returned to his room. He sat down at his desk, took out paper and pen, and began to write down the sword techniques and martial arts methods from Yang Xian's memory.

He wasn't afraid of forgetting; he just wanted to write it down so that he could spread the word about the opportunity later.

In the future, we could even build a building specifically to store these secret manuals, not for profit, but just for the sake of having room to hold them...

Cough!

Show your power!
Half an hour later, there was a knock on the door. Gu An responded and pushed the door open with peace of mind.

She closed the door, then went to the table, and without saying a word, looked Gu An up and down.

Gu An didn't stop writing, and asked without looking up, "Is there something you need?"

Anxin said with a smile, "I heard that your temperament has changed, Master. Everyone is guessing that you have broken through, so I came to see. Indeed, there is a change. You have a more powerful demeanor than before."

Gu An smiled but didn't reply. He suddenly thought of Yang Xian's experience and then asked, "Are you capable of feeling emotions?"

An Xin was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "What kind of feelings are you talking about? There is no one in this valley who can make me have any feelings for them, and I will never fall into the trap of love in my future life. My senior brother once told me that his biggest regret was forming a romantic relationship with someone, which affected his progress. But if he had to give it up, he would feel bad. I will never let myself fall into this situation."

An Shengtian and the descendants of the An family still resented An Hao, which made An Xin even less willing to get married and have children.

Furthermore, she has cultivated immortality and is not affected by the instincts of her physical body. She is currently living a happy life, so she truly does not crave love.

Gu An looked up at her and, seeing that she didn't seem to be just being perfunctory, smiled and said, "Is that so? Love isn't as simple as you think. When fate comes, you might forget what you're saying now."

Anxin raised her chin and snorted, "I won't forget, Master. You don't want to send me away, do you?"

"How could that be? I just read a book these past two days and was moved by the love story in it."

As Gu An spoke, those complex emotions welled up in his heart again.

Yang Xian's biggest regret in life was rejecting Fang Meng. He never had a woman in his life because he was satisfied every time he recalled Fang Meng's feelings for him.

Anxin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and reminded him, "Master, read less of those miscellaneous books."

Gu An glared at her and said, "Get out, get out, you have no manners!"

He smiled smugly, bowed, and then left.

Gu An continued writing the writing manual as the sun gradually set outside the window.

Time continues to pass.

Three years later, everyone who knew Gu An had gotten used to his changed demeanor. By integrating the Sacred Heart Sword Dao, his sword intent had also been enhanced, and the sword Dao had once again become his strongest means.

This day.

Gu An stood on the cliff at the edge of the Third Medicine Valley, gazing at the sky.

He saw a vast city appear deep in the universe, near the realm of annihilation. It was pitch black and as large as the sun above the Heavenly Spirit Realm.

The God Emperor of Annihilation is hiding in that Black City.

The Holy Court, Immortal Dynasty, Xuanyou Divine Dynasty, and Heavenly Demon Sect of the Heavenly Spirit Great World all sent people to investigate, but they would turn to stone as soon as they approached Black City. Looking around, hundreds of stone statues floated in that void, the strongest of whom had reached the Dao Void Profound Immortal Realm, which was a pity.

"What methods are you going to use to attract Long Qing?" Gu An thought to himself. This God Emperor of Annihilation was enveloped by a causal power stronger than that of the Free Immortal, making it impossible to deduce. It must be the true form of the God Emperor of Annihilation.

Just then, a figure descended from the sky and landed beside Gu An; it was Wu Jue.

A few years ago, Wu Jue had just broken through to the Mahayana realm and became famous in the Tai Xuan Sect. At that time, he drank with Gu An for a whole day and night.

Gu An looked at him and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?"

Wu Jue said excitedly, "I have news of An Hao. He has now undergone Nirvana and has arranged a time to fight someone at sea. Tai Xuan Sect is preparing to send a group of cultivators to support him, and I will go as well."

Anhao!

This is the strongest genius in the history of the Tai Xuan Sect, and he is still a legend, talked about by many disciples.

Gu An raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise, and asked, "He broke through so quickly? Was his opponent very strong?"

"The opponent is a rogue immortal. He wants to challenge a rogue immortal across realms, so this matter has caused quite a stir overseas. Isn't your disciple Anxin on good terms with him? Do you need me to pass on a message to him?" Wu Jue said with a smile. He couldn't wait to go and watch the battle.

Gu An pondered for a moment and said, "Forget it, don't tell her, so she won't worry."

“That’s true. Just how powerful is An Hao now? He dares to challenge a Loose Immortal while only at the Nirvana Realm. It’s said that the higher the Immortal Realm, the more difficult it is to surpass. Within the same realm, killing an opponent is as difficult as ascending to heaven.” Wu Jue said with a look of longing.

An Hao was younger than him; he had only just reached the Mahayana realm, while An Hao had already begun challenging the Loose Immortals. How could he not admire An Hao?
He was the number one genius of the Tai Xuan Sect for a long time, but both he and the entire Tai Xuan Sect felt that he was not the strongest genius in history, because that position had always been occupied by someone else.

Gu An raised his hand to his face, feigning surprise, and asked, "You're asking me?"

Wu Jue laughed and said, "Don't you call yourself the Sword Master of Supporting the Dao? Speaking of which, An Hao is your disciple. Should I tell him about this?"

Gu An rolled her eyes at him and said, "You don't believe me? If you want to say it, then say it. I'm not afraid."

Wu Jue got excited and snorted, "Since you're not afraid, then I'll tell him I look forward to seeing you two."
