At the entrance of the Water Moon Cave, there was a barrier set up by the Eastern Sea Sword Saint.
Gu Yang hadn't been here since the last time when he made the Red-eyed Divine Ape his pet beast.
Of course, in the simulation, he had been here countless times already.
This barrier could only hinder those at the Unleaking realm or below. For a Celestial Being, it could be broken in one strike.
He didn't even need to use a weapon. With a stroke of his finger, he tore a crack in it and walked through.
Upon leaving the cave, he saw a figure flying towards him. It was the Eastern Sea Sword Saint himself.
"It's you!"
The Sword Saint was visibly startled upon recognizing him.
The last time they met, Gu Yang was still in the Mana realm.
And now, he seemed to have fused with the world around him, evoking a sense of transcendence that was clearly indicative of a Celestial Being.
