Chapter 416: Take a Look Behind You

Under the effect of 【Daluo Dongguan】, Gu Jiting's line of sight was continuously raised until it finally stopped above a certain threshold.

This was still his first time fully activating the ability he had comprehended.

"All things under heaven, I have finally achieved a single glance to peer—"

Gu Jiting had just been about to voice his feelings, but suddenly stopped himself, because he thought of the object he had just spied upon.

It was better not to speak so absolutely.

At this moment, within Gu Jiting's perception, the position of that immortal was like a hollow void.

Visible but intangible.

Clearly standing right there, yet it was as if no such person existed.

Feeling the great terror transmitted from the unseen, Gu Jiting could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, forcibly suppressing the desire within his heart to spy once more.

He was done playing; after learning 【Daluo Dongguan】, he could already travel freely throughout the world, there was no need to provoke such a contemporary immortal.

And the reason Gu Jiting would produce this feeling was undoubtedly because of 【Zhou Tian's Principle of Change】 and 【Qi Mechanism Sorting】.

Just as Wang Ye could use Feng Hou Qi Men to deceive Zhuge Qing, for Li Ang to achieve this was naturally effortless.

Feeling Gu Jiting's omnipresent qi mechanism, Li Ang revealed a thoughtful expression.

'So this is Daluo Dongguan? Indeed, it's somewhat similar to ascending dimension.'

It had to be said, if it were an ordinary fourth or even fifth energy-level professional, they really might not necessarily be able to discover Gu Jiting's tracks.

Unfortunately, for Li Ang, everything was just futile effort.

"Come out, I won't get angry over such a trivial matter."

This was the truth; after all, there was no conflict between Li Ang and Gu Jiting, and he would not feel displeased just because the man had glanced a few more times—the other's earlier performance was purely scaring himself.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jiting, who had been preparing to disperse his form and roam the world, immediately stopped his movements, and a hint of hesitation arose in his heart.

After regaining a sense of security, he had gradually calmed down, and also knew that his reaction just now had been somewhat excessive.

But Gu Jiting felt that anyone who saw that scene just now would be the same as him; after all, that immortal below—

The man gave a shudder, not daring to continue thinking.

And for him, the first choice at this moment was naturally not to have any further entanglement with the other party.

But if he were to just give up like this, this sorcerer felt somewhat unwilling.

Although he could comfort himself that being unable to see through an immortal was perfectly normal, could this truly be considered as having completed his cultivation goal?

Gu Jiting could not help but fall into silence.

Seeing that the other party迟迟 did not appear, Li Ang did not mind; he knew the target was still lingering here.

Moreover, even without the other party, it was not impossible for him to learn 【Daluo Dongguan】.

【From Falsehood to Truth】, show me your limits!

Li Ang carefully recalled his earlier feelings, slowly entering a state of contemplation.

The clearing fell silent for a time.

After a long while, a man wearing a cyan suit suddenly appeared out of thin air.

In the end, Gu Jiting still could not restrain his curiosity and chose to show himself to meet.

This was a decision he made after careful deliberation; after all, if the other party had malicious intent, he could have been slapped to death with one palm at their very first meeting.

Moreover, with the augmentation of 【Daluo Dongguan】, he felt his own safety could still be guaranteed.

Looking at the youth before him, Gu Jiting opened his mouth and asked: "What would you like to know?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ang withdrew his thoughts, glanced at the respectful-looking man: "It seems you have indeed comprehended something, speak."

"Yes."

Li Ang's request did not exceed Gu Jiting's expectations; after all, as a lone wolf, there was nothing on him worth coveting, and only the newly comprehended 【Daluo Dongguan】 could attract this immortal.

As for haggling—

Gu Jiting was not so foolish as to that extent; moreover, the other party had even allowed strangers outside the Sanyi Sect to enter the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley freely, so he was presumably not a petty character.

It was better to honestly speak out what he had comprehended, with a very high probability of gaining something.

Even if not, gaining an immortal's favor was not a loss for him.

Thinking this, Gu Jiting poured out everything he had comprehended in the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley in one go.

Until the very end, he still said with some lingering interest: "If there is anything you don't understand, you may ask me directly."

As a traitor of the Shuzi Sect, Gu Jiting had long lacked someone to交流 with.

Previously, when following Wu Gensheng, he could still briefly discuss things with this Xingzhang Sect.

But after the other party was 'caught', he once again became a lone figure.

Until today.

Moreover, guiding an immortal—Gu Jiting found it thrilling just thinking about it.

However, facing his goodwill, Li Ang merely waved his hand slightly.

'So that's how it is.'

After listening to Gu Jiting's account, he finally knew what was lacking in his own thinking regarding 【Daluo Dongguan】.

And now, after completing this missing piece, everything fell into place.

【Daluo Dongguan (Skill): The Great Luo is measureless, embracing all existence; all things in the world, observed through the ages】.

【High-Dimensional Life · Pseudo (Feat): You now possess some characteristics of a high-dimensional life】.

After learning 【Daluo Dongguan】, Li Ang succeeded in obtaining one skill and one feat.

Feeling the enhancements brought by these two abilities, he could not help but exclaim in his heart.

'This is truly... shocking.'

Li Ang now understood why, in the original plot, the Shuzi Sect Sect leader Hu Tu had said before his death that Gu Jiting was stepping on his own destiny.

This simply didn't seem like an ability that could be mastered at the first energy level.

Rather, it was more accurate to say that all Eight Wonders carried faint traces of higher beings, only 【Great Luo Cave Observation】 was more obvious.

With such thoughts, Li Ang couldn't help but look toward Gu Gu Jiting.

If the observation power brought by the Reincarnation Eye earlier only let him see a person's strength or weakness, now 【Great Luo Cave Observation】 let him see a person's trajectory of fate.

At this moment, the man in the cyan suit had nowhere to hide in Li Ang's eyes; the past several decades of his life flashed by like a movie.

Not only that, Li Ang could also see the other's future fate with perfect clarity.

Perhaps this was partly because the other party was relatively weak, but it still demonstrated the terrifying power of 【Great Luo Cave Observation】.

Gu Gu Jiting also noticed Li Ang's gaze; he only felt a chill run over his body, as if he weren't wearing a single thread.

No, it was a feeling that went deeper than that.

Gu Gu Jiting gave a shudder, forced a smile onto his face, and said: "Is there something you wish to ask, sir?"

Facing the question, Li Ang curved his lips and gave a light laugh: "I am very satisfied."

"?"

Gu Gu Jiting was stunned at first, then seemed to think of something, and a flash of disbelief crossed his eyes.

Could it be that—

How… how could that be?!

He instinctively wanted to deny the guess in his heart, but couldn't help hesitating.

If it was an immortal, perhaps it really could be done.

The moment this thought rose in Gu Gu Jiting's heart, he discovered that the immortal before him had already vanished without a trace, leaving only a strangely familiar feeling between heaven and earth.

At the same time, some information had appeared in his mind.

One sentence — 【I am very satisfied】 — and

insights regarding 【Great Luo Cave Observation】.

Reading the information in his mind, Gu Gu Jiting's expression gradually turned blank, and he couldn't help muttering to himself: "So this is what an immortal is…"

A lifetime of learning could not compare to a single moment of an immortal's insight; such a chasm left the sorcerer momentarily lost and dispirited.

On the other side.

Li Ang, feeling the somewhat wondrous state he was in at the moment, couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face.

Perhaps 【Great Luo Cave Observation】 didn't provide particularly strong combat ability in direct battle, but in terms of support it was downright outrageous.

With this ability as a baseline, even if his future journeys took him to some bizarre worlds, he could guarantee his own safety at the first moment.

Of course Li Ang wouldn't make the same mistake as Gu Gu Jiting; although 【Great Luo Cave Observation】 was powerful, the necessary caution still couldn't be lacking — after all, the world was not unchanging.

Besides, who knew whether there might be other beings who possessed similar abilities, capable of interfering with 【Great Luo Cave Observation】 and feeding him false information.

Thinking of this, Li Ang slightly calmed his mood, then looked down at the azure-blue planet below.

Humans, heteromorphs, aliens — every living creature was seen by his eyes.

And just as he saw those aliens from 【Great Love Plan】, Li Ang raised an eyebrow, then turned to look at the cold, dead silence of space.

"So they've finally come."

Under the gaze of 【Great Luo Cave Observation】, he discovered that the fate trajectories of the two unlucky ones he had previously controlled were a little strange — the headquarters personnel of 【Great Love Plan】 had not informed them of the itinerary.

The plan was perfect, but unfortunately it was of no use against Li Ang.

"A futile move."

Along with the murmur drifting away on the wind, the young man's figure gradually blurred, and finally merged into the very fabric of heaven and earth.

……

In outer space, a massive starship emblazoned with the words 【Great Love Plan】 was slowly sailing among the stars.

At this moment, strange-looking creatures were scurrying about everywhere inside the ship, looking extremely busy.
