Reverend Insanity: Dream Gu

When the two finally met, Sun Cu concealed the complicated emotions in his heart, cupped his hands, and offered his congratulations.

”Congratulations, junior brother Lin, on successfully ascending to immortality. From today onward, you can watch the world’s changing tides from above and no longer be bound by the affairs of mortals.”

Lin Yan smiled and shook his head. ”Brother Sun, you’re being too modest. Without your help today, this ascension would not have gone so smoothly.”

He sensed the complicated emotions in Sun Cu’s heart. Rather than dwelling on past matters, he deliberately changed the subject, allowing both sides to move past the previous awkwardness.

”Speaking of which, this battle must have consumed quite a bit of immortal essence. By my estimate, the total should be around eight hundred immortal essence stones. I’ll repay it as soon as possible.”

Hearing this, Sun Cu opened his mouth, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

”Alas, we’re already allies, and you also helped me complete my own Immortal Ascension back then. Don’t call me Brother Sun anymore, I can’t bear it. Compared to your achievements, I’m merely an old man who got lucky.”

Lin Yan sighed. ”Even close brothers settle accounts clearly. We are both lone cultivators. Just as we agreed before, after becoming Gu Immortals, we would support each other and gain a foothold in the Gu Immortal world together.”

As he spoke, Lin Yan could clearly sense the change in Sun Cu’s attitude. After this Immortal Ascension, the balance between them had quietly shifted.

A Ten Extreme Physique Gu Immortal already possessed an extraordinary foundation. On top of that, he would soon control five Immortal Gu. Once he digested the gains from this ascension and stabilized his cultivation, his strength would rise rapidly.

It would not take long before he completely surpassed ordinary Rank 6 Gu Immortals.

Just then, Lin Yan seemed to sense something.

Above the Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit, Lin Yan stood with his hands behind his back and looked toward the distant horizon.

”They’re here.”

His Immortal Ascension had caused a tremendous disturbance. The Heavenly Tribulation and Earthly Calamity alone had shaken the surrounding region, making it impossible to avoid the attention of Gu Immortals. It was only natural that nearby Gu Immortals would come to investigate.

Among the closest forces to the Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit was the Tang Family, one of Western Desert’s super forces.

A moment later, two streaks of light pierced across the horizon and sped toward the Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit.

Both had an extraordinary presence. From the auras they radiated, it was clear that they were Rank 6 Gu Immortals.

Their gazes swept across the battlefield below. The wasteland was scarred beyond recognition, and the remnants of the Heavenly Tribulation and Earthly Calamity still permeated the air. Even the two Gu Immortals revealed faint looks of surprise.

Before long, their gazes fell upon Lin Yan and Sun Cu. Among them, Sun Cu immediately caught their attention. The female Gu Immortal seemed to recognize him and said in surprise,

”Could you be Sun Cu, the lone cultivator who recently ascended?”

Sun Cu smiled and nodded. Cupping his hands toward them, he said, ”Greetings, members of the Tang Family.”

The two Tang Family Gu Immortals returned the greeting with polite expressions.

Over the past year, Sun Cu had relied on Transformation Stone Immortal Gu to trade with many righteous path forces throughout Western Desert. As a result, his name had gradually spread among the Gu Immortals of Western Desert, so it was not surprising that the Tang Family recognized him.

Tang Fangming’s attention soon shifted to Lin Yan. Although Sun Cu had gained some fame in recent years, the true reason for their visit was the newly ascended Gu Immortal before them.

Dense Flame Path aura still permeated the surrounding area, and the traces left behind by the tribulation remained clearly visible. A newly ascended Gu Immortal capable of causing such a phenomenon was certainly no ordinary person..

Tang Fangming cupped his hands politely and introduced himself. ”I am Tang Fang ming, and this is my younger sister, Tang Miao.”

Hearing the name, Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat. He had not expected to encounter Tang Fang ming here.

In the original novel, Tang Fang ming was one of the Tang Family’s most outstanding geniuses. Although he had yet to reveal his brilliance, he would eventually become one of the pillars supporting the Tang Family and lead its influence to spread throughout Western Desert.

However, what truly interested Lin Yan was not Tang Fang ming’s future achievements, but his Dream Path talent. Tang Fangming possessed extraordinary talent in Dream Path, and more importantly, the Tang Family secretly controlled an externally manifested dream realm of Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable. For Lin Yan, that dream realm held immense value. Dream Path resources were exceedingly scarce, and any opportunity related to Dream Path was worth pursuing.

At the same time, Tang Fangming’s younger sister, Tang Miao, possessed a clue related to a true inheritance left behind by Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable.

When Tang Fangming later became trapped within the dream realm and could not free himself, Tang Miao exhausted every method she could think of to save him. After repeated failures, she was ultimately forced to trade that clue to White sae shatuo of Shadow Sect in exchange for help.

Lin Yan naturally knew where that clue ultimately led—the Blue Dragon Whale in Eastern Sea. That place contained a true inheritance of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable, along with countless resources and opportunities. Whether it was the Thieving Heaven dream realm or the Paradise Earth inheritance, both held tremendous value in his eyes.

Most importantly, Tang Fangming’s character was quite decent by Gu World standards. He was not the type to casually scheme against others or repay kindness with enmity. Taking everything into account, Lin Yan quickly arrived at a conclusion. Tang Fang ming was someone worth befriending.
