"What? Heās Gu Chenfeng?"
Flame Soulās old face changed drastically, hurriedly halting his body, his shocked eyes focused on Gu Chenfeng.
"Heās the Ancient Venerable?" Feng Tianji and the other Immortal Venerables and Immortal Hall experts also hastily stopped, their eyes filled with disbelief, immediately looking towards Gu Chenfeng.
"Is he Gu Chenfeng?" Flame Shadow said, stunned, "No way? Gu Chenfeng doesnāt look like this, besides, is there anything young about him?"
The disciples of Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace all widened their eyes in shock, staring at Gu Chenfeng.
This sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth, could he be the fearsome Ancient Venerable of those years?
Isnāt this joke too big?
Amidst the shock.
Flame Soul looked at Chu Shitian and quickly asked, "Chu Shitian, how can you be sure heās Gu Chenfeng?"
Chu Shitian replied respectfully, "Young Master, he knows my name is Chu Shitian."
Flame Soul immediately scolded, "Nonsense! Lots of people know your name is Chu Shitian."
Chu Shitian hastily added, "Young Master, I havenāt finished. When he came to our Immortal Palace, he said he was looking for the Young Master. When I first met the Ancient Venerable back then, it was exactly like when I received the Ancient Venerable just now."
"He even knew what I was going to say, exactly the same. Moreover, he possesses Divine Power. If heās not the Ancient Venerable, then who is? There couldnāt be a second person in the Immortal Realm who could know what I was going to say, right?"
Upon hearing this.
Flame Soul and the Elders were all stunned.
They too believed that no one else in the Immortal Realm could guess what Chu Shitian was going to say.
Feng Tianji recalled what Gu Chenfeng said earlier and hastily added, "Heās also very familiar with me and could guess my alchemy issues."
"Could it be true?" Flame Shadow looked at Gu Chenfeng uncertainly and asked, "Are you... are you really Gu Chenfeng?"
Flame Soul flashed down, looked at Gu Chenfeng, and asked, "Are you really the Ancient Venerable Gu Chenfeng?"
Gu Chenfeng glanced at Chu Shitian, smiling faintly, "I didnāt expect you to still remember, kid."
Chu Shitian awkwardly replied, "Ancient Venerable, it was when I heard the Young Master mention your name that I suddenly remembered."
"Authentic and beyond doubt." Gu Chenfeng smiled lightly, "Little Shadow, why donāt you tell us how the Heaven-Slaying Immortal-Destroying Array of Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace came about?"
Upon hearing this.
Flame Shadowās expression abruptly shook, and the scene of him kneeling and crying, begging Gu Chenfeng for the Array many years ago, instantly flashed in his mind.
"Grandfather! He is Gu Chenfeng! Thereās no mistake!" Flame Shadow said excitedly, "Even if he turned into ashes, Iād recognize him! In the entire Immortal Realm, only Gu Chenfeng dares to call me Little Shadow!"
"Youād recognize him even if he turned into ashes?" Gu Chenfeng grinned, "Who was it just now who made a move without distinguishing right from wrong?"
Flame Shadow was first stunned, then awkwardly scratched his head and smiled, "Wasnāt that just to test you?"
After the embarrassment, Flame Shadow excitedly said, "Anyway, you finally returned. Itās been ten thousand years. I thought you wouldnāt come back."
"Itās indeed the Ancient Venerable!" Flame Soul was overjoyed, extremely happy, "The Heaven-Slaying Immortal-Destroying Array was gifted by the Ancient Venerable back then, and no one but us and the Ancient Venerable knows it."
"Yes! Yes!" Feng Tianji said excitedly, "He really is the Ancient Venerable!"
At this moment.
Whether it was Flame Soul or Feng Tianji and others, they were already deeply convinced.
The sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth before them was indeed the Ancient Venerable of those years.
"Ancient Venerable, please come inside!" Flame Soul said happily, hurriedly inviting Gu Chenfeng into the grand hall.
"Letās go, letās go!" Flame Shadow excitedly pulled Gu Chenfeng, "You disappeared for a whole ten thousand years. Tell us whatās happened in all these years. I canāt believe youāve turned into a child."
Inside the grand hall.
Flame Soul said happily, "Ancient Venerable, please sit down."
The happy smiles on everyoneās faces were utterly uncontainable.
While pouring tea for Gu Chenfeng, Flame Shadow excitedly asked, "Gu Chenfeng, tell us, what has happened over these years? I can hardly wait."
Gu Chenfeng took a sip of tea and smiled faintly, "Iāve been reborn through reincarnation."
"What? Reborn through reincarnation?" Flame Soul, Flame Shadow, and the Elders were all simultaneously shocked, their eyes almost popping out.
Flame Soul said in extreme shock, "Is there really reincarnation in this world?"
"No way?" Flame Shadow said in disbelief, "I thought it was just a legend. Is rebirth through reincarnation really possible?"
"Yes." Gu Chenfeng nodded, "All of this is related to the Cultivation Technique I practiced. Rebirth through reincarnation requires retraining, which is why Iāve become like this."
"I just ascended from the Lower Realm a few days ago, so itās very normal that you donāt recognize me."
"I see." Flame Soul and the Elders nodded in unison.
"Just ascended from the Lower Realm?" Flame Shadow asked in shock, "Then isnāt your current realm the Profound Immortal Realm?"
"Correct." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "Early Stage of the Profound Immortal Realm."
Flame Soul then asked, "Ancient Venerable, are you aware of the events at the Immortal Mansion?"
"Yes." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "Iāve already annihilated the Supreme Elder and all the disciples of the Immortal Mansion. I just came from the Ye Family."
"The events at the Immortal Mansion happened too suddenly." Flame Soul frowned, "When Ye Jiuchong sent the message back then, it was already too late."
"Furthermore, back then, the strength of Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace was no match for the void. Now, with ten thousand years passed, his Cultivation must have grown even stronger."
"Now that Gu Chenfeng has returned, why should we fear that old thing?" Flame Shadow said with disdain, "No matter how strong his Cultivation is, how can he withstand Gu Chenfengās Divine Power?"
"That old thing is probably hiding and doesnāt dare come out now! If he dares to come out, Gu Chenfeng can annihilate him at any time!"
"Yes, yes!" Feng Tianji said excitedly, "The Divine Power of the Ancient Venerable is terrifying, just as formidable as back then, slaying the void is certainly not a problem."
"Iām afraid itās not that easy." Flame Soul glanced at Gu Chenfeng, frowning seriously, "If the Ancient Venerable could kill him, Iām afraid he wouldnāt have time to come to Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace."
"Old Soul is right." Gu Chenfeng nodded and smiled, "I do possess Divine Power, but currently, itās limited. After all, Iām only at the Profound Immortal Realm now."
"Even if Divine Power can suppress the power of the void, it will quickly be exhausted. Going to confront him now is undoubtedly courting death."
"Then let him live a while longer," Flame Shadow said viciously, "Gu Chenfeng, with your talent, raising your Cultivation is no problem. There may not be treasures in the Immortal Mansion, but Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace has plenty. Whatever you want, you can have it."
"Yingāer is right," Flame Soul nodded, "If it werenāt for the Ancient Venerableās help back then, we wouldnāt have todayās strength and status."
"Now that the Ancient Venerable has returned, itās time for us to repay you. Whatever the Ancient Venerable needs, just say the word. Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace will fully support you."
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "I want to craft a Spatial Treasure!"
