My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 676 The Appearance of Zhuge

676: The Appearance of Zhuge

676: The Appearance of Zhuge

As Gu Lan was thinking this, a familiar figure suddenly appeared before him.

The figure manifested silently, as if it had always been there.

However, Gu Lan clearly sensed that the figure had been formed through the interaction of countless forces from the heavens and earth.

This ability to shape and evolve all things was something Gu Lan was more familiar with than anyone.

He had experienced it firsthand when he infused the Nine Heavens Earth Essence into the Earthly Realm.

Therefore, upon seeing such a strange phenomenon, he was not the least bit alarmed.

When the figure fully materialized, Gu Lan recognized the person immediately.

He cupped his hands and said, “Mr.

Zhuge, long time no see!”

The person was none other than Zhuge Qingyun, dressed as a storyteller.

He returned the gesture with a cupped fist and said, “Young Master Gu, long time no see!”

The two greeted each other like old friends who had not seen each other in years.

No words were needed, as everything was understood between them.

Gu Lan had long suspected Zhuge Qingyun’s true identity.

Seeing his appearance now, a vague answer began to form in his mind.

“Young Master Gu, I presume you already know my origins.”

“That’s right, I am a guardian of the Six Realms and an incarnation of the Power of Heaven Path.”

Zhuge Qingyun seemed to have guessed that Gu Lan had figured out his identity, so he directly revealed the truth.

The atmosphere fell silent.

Gu Lan thought to himself: I was wrong!

Gu Lan had initially speculated that Zhuge Qingyun was something akin to a creator god of the Six Realms.

However, he was not, in fact, a creator god but an incarnation of the Power of Heaven Path.

Thankfully, he hadn’t spoken his guess out loud; otherwise, it would have been awkward.

Gu Lan breathed a silent sigh of relief.

“Young Master Gu!” Zhuge Qingyun called out.

“Today, I appear to pass on the responsibility of guarding the Six Realms to you.”

“With your current cultivation, you are capable of inheriting the Power of Heaven Path from me.

But for some reason, I cannot integrate the Six Realms Power of Heaven Path into your body.”

“Young Master Gu, have you ever come into contact with the Power of Heaven Path outside of the Six Realms?”

Zhuge Qingyun did not know what Gu Lan was thinking.

He simply posed his question out of confusion.

Power of Heaven Path outside the Six Realms?

Gu Lan was taken aback.

He had no idea what the Power of Heaven Path was.

However, the power Zhuge Qingyun had used upon his appearance resembled the creation force he had experienced before.

Could the Power of Heaven Path be related to that force of creation?

When I complete my creation task, will I become the Heavenly Dao of that world?

No, wait!

Zhuge Qingyun spoke of the Heavenly Dao, but that should be the Heavenly Dao of the Six Realms.

Could it be that creation doesn’t involve the creation of a single world, but rather a Worldly Realm similar to the Six Realms?

Gu Lan was struck by a sudden realization but kept his expression neutral.

The force of creation originated from the Nine Heavens Earth Essence.

He could naturally push it along the Nine Heavens Earth Essence and unravel a long-standing mystery in his mind.

“Mr.

Zhuge, I don’t know what the Power of Heaven Path is,” Gu Lan said.

“But not long ago, after I integrated the Nine Heavens Earth Essence into the Earthly Realm, I did enter a very strange state.”

“Is the Power of Heaven Path related to the Nine Heavens Earth Essence?”

Gu Lan asked.

Zhuge Qingyun looked deeply at Gu Lan after hearing this.

As the guardian of the Six Realms and an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, he naturally knew what was happening with Gu Lan.

He had long sensed Gu Lan’s presence when he obtained the Nine Heavens Earth Essence.

He first noticed Gu Lan when he was still in the human world, assuming he was a person of Destiny, someone with an extraordinary future.

Gu Lan was a top talent in the Earthly Realm, which was something quite common in the Six Realms.

Zhuge Qingyun didn’t pay much attention to Gu Lan then, but everything changed after Chen Feng’s appearance.

Zhuge Qingyun had been observing the likes of Lin Tan’er, the destined women, in many worlds.

Whenever they had the potential to rise, he would set trials and opportunities to help them, preparing for the future selection of a true guardian for the Six Realms.

Among all the destined ones, Chen Feng was the most exceptional.

The Destiny she possessed was so profound that it was extremely rare in the Six Realms.

But Zhuge Qingyun never expected that, despite Chen Feng’s terrifying Destiny, her rate of growth would be far outpaced by Gu Lan.

In fact, not just Gu Lan, but even many of his companions surpassed Chen Feng.

If not for the intersection of their paths, with Chen Feng becoming Gu Lan’s only named disciple, she might still be at the level of an ordinary disciple from Lanyan Royal School.

It was then that Zhuge Qingyun began to pay real attention to Gu Lan.

He couldn’t understand how, apart from an ancient Merit Golden Robe that Gu Lan had received, there was no other notable opportunity that could explain his rapid progress.

Gu Lan had once been an ordinary scholar, but now, in a short time, he had ascended to the ranks of the Sage Realm, the Imperial Realm, and even the Divine Realm.

There seemed to be no bottlenecks in Gu Lan’s cultivation.

Zhuge Qingyun had tested Gu Lan more than once, but no matter what he did, he couldn’t affect Gu Lan.

Gu Lan’s Destiny had started low, but it had risen steadily.

Zhuge Qingyun could hardly believe what was happening with Gu Lan, because it was practically impossible for someone to reach such a high cultivation at such a young age without external help.

But Gu Lan did it entirely through his own efforts, with no external transmission or guidance.

Even Zhuge Qingyun, who was an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, couldn’t perceive Gu Lan’s fate in the long river of Destiny.

Everything about Gu Lan seemed to be related to another Worldly Realm.

Yet, everything Gu Lan did was for the Six Realms and humanity.

His actions were so much better than the self-serving, fearful Divine Realm cultivators.

Even though Gu Lan had kept some things hidden, Zhuge Qingyun wasn’t going to pry further.

“Mr.

Gu, the Power of Heaven Path is the source of the Great Path of the world.”

“When a Worldly Realm is born, the Power of Heaven Path is born with it, governing the Three Thousand Great Paths and the laws of all things in the world.”

“The Heavenly Dao will select a person from the living beings of the Worldly Realm, granting them a fragment of the Power of Heaven Path, making them the guardian of that Worldly Realm.”

“Originally, I intended to pass this fragment of the Power of Heaven Path to you, but it is unfortunate that you are not within the Six Realms, and thus, you cannot accept it.”

Zhuge Qingyun looked at Gu Lan, raising his hand.

A golden seed appeared in his palm.

This seed had a similar aura to the mysterious seed he had once given to Gu Lan, but this time, the golden seed emanated a much deeper and more profound energy.
