Reverend Insanity: Dream Gu

”Alright, I surrender!”

At that moment, Sun Cu’s figure suddenly appeared and immediately stopped Lin Yan. His gaze was filled with deep vigilance as he stared at the four-colored fire lotus in Lin Yan’s hand.

”Hahahaha! So, how was it?”

Lin Yan laughed loudly as the destructive fire lotus in his hand slowly dispersed back into scattered flames. Now that his Flame Path attainment had reached the Master level, he could assemble and disperse this killer move freely at will.

Back then, merely fusing two Otherworldly Flame Gu had already been enough to cripple Zhang Bai. Now, the fusion of four different Otherworldly Flame Gu had reached an entirely different level of destructive power.

Sun Cu’s eyes flickered slightly. After exchanging moves, he could clearly sense that although Lin Yan did not possess many killer moves, every one of them had been polished to an astonishing degree. Their complexity, control, and power far surpassed the killer moves Sun Cu had painstakingly developed himself.

Still, Sun Cu was not afraid. He had yet to reveal his true trump cards, such as Myriad Transformation Stone. Until now, he had not used his full strength at all.

Even so, he had to admit that Lin Yan already possessed the qualifications to stand on equal footing with him.

On the other side, Lin Yan naturally guessed what Sun Cu was thinking and secretly laughed inwardly. Whether it was Prairie Fire or Flame Demon True Body, both contained the accumulated wisdom of the Huang Family over hundreds of years.

He had merely stood upon the shoulders of countless predecessors and continued pushing those killer moves even further.

How could such killer moves not be exquisite?

Moreover, Lin Yan still had hidden trump cards which he had yet to reveal, such as Dream Path killer moves and his Flying Path Master attainment.

Sun Cu looked at him and said indifferently. ”What exactly do you want?”

”Cooperation.” Lin Yan spoke. ”When you undergo Immortal Ascension, I can help you withstand the Heavenly Tribulation and Earthly Calamity. I can also assist in refining you’rs semi-finished Immortal Gu, reducing the amount of immortal materials consumed.”

”In return, when I undergo Immortal Ascension in the future, you will also help me withstand tribulations and gather resources for refining Immortal Gu.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Cu frowned deeply and pointed toward Zhang Fang and the others nearby. ”Even without you, I can still refine Immortal Gu and achieve Immortal Ascension. And what makes you think you understand Immortal Ascension?”

”Heh.” Lin Yan only smiled faintly. ”Trust me, refining Gu with me will save you far more resources than refining with them.”

”As for Immortal Ascension...I know more about it than you imagine.”

Then he casually threw out an even greater temptation. ”The most valuable thing you can gain here is my friendship.”

Sun Cu immediately sneered. ”Your friendship? How valuable could that possibly be?”

Lin Yan retorted, ”Then how much do you think a future Gu Immortal’s friendship is worth?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Cu carefully examined Lin Yan once more. He had to admit that the young man before him was far too monstrous—his combat strength, and foundation were absurdly too deep.

After a long silence, Sun Cu responded . ”If you truly have confidence in reaching Rank 6, then I’ll hear you out.”

Seeing that Sun Cu had finally begun to waver, Lin Yan burst into laughter. ”Hahahaha! Do you even know how old I am this year?”

Sun Cu frowned slightly and secretly activated an investigative Gu. His gaze swept across Lin Yan’s body, and his expression immediately changed in shock.

”You’re only nineteen? How is that possible?!”

There were countless strange Gu in the world. When Sun Cu first saw Lin Yan, although he appeared young and handsome, there was no way to know whether he had used some special Gu to alter his appearance. Even that face itself could have been fake.

At first, Sun Cu had assumed he was some old monster hiding behind a youthful appearance.

But at only nineteen years old, he already possessed Rank 5 cultivation, Master attainment in Refinement Path, and combat strength at the peak of the mortal world.

It was simply too unbelievable.

Sun Yue, standing beside him, opened her mouth in shock. The man before her was actually around the same age as herself, perhaps even younger to the point where she could call him little brother, yet he was already able to contend against her grandfather head-on.

Lin Yan spoke confidently, his words filled with ambition. ”If you form an alliance with me now, then in the future, you may gain the favor of a Rank 7 or even Rank 8 Gu Immortal. Wouldn’t that be a tremendous opportunity?”

”Even if I fail to reach that level, once you and I both achieve Immortal Ascension, we can still establish ourselves among the Gu Immortals together. We are both loose cultivators, not backed by super forces. In that case, we should support each other even more.”

Sun Cu looked at Lin Yan with a completely different gaze now, silently contemplating his words.

He was truly moved. In the next moment, he raised his hand and made his move. A yellow-brown ray of light shot forward and landed on Zhang Fang and the others in the distance.

In an instant, all of them were petrified on the spot before their life force completely vanished. Sun Cu then looked toward Lin Yan and revealed a rare smile.

”Very well Young Man. From today onward, we are allies.”
