If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 1013 The Heavenly Emperor's Wrath

Gu An looked at Dao Ya Zun, who was lying in front of him, and said, "You don't even know who I am, yet you dare to come here? Of all the immortals and gods in the Heavenly Court, why did you choose me?"

Dao Ya Zun endured the pain without answering. He was suffering even more torment than Dao Shu Zun, his Dao Fruit was being burned, and he was living a life worse than death.

"Let me guess, one of you seven Dao Venerables is hiding in the Heavenly Court, or is he the Heavenly Dao Supreme? He chose me, didn't he?"

Gu An's guess caused Dao Ya Zun's pupils to dilate. He pressed his forehead to the ground, his eyes filled with despair.

Who exactly is he facing?
Could it be some Heavenly Emperor from the past?

He was a perfected Hunyuan Tongxuan Venerable Immortal Realm cultivator, so for him to suffer such a miserable defeat and be completely powerless, his cultivation level must far exceed that of the Hunyuan Tongxuan Venerable Immortal Realm.

He even felt that he wouldn't have been so miserable even if he had faced the Burial Emperor.

At this moment, he felt despair about the plan of the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor.

The waters of Heaven are too deep.

Gu An could see through Dao Ya Zun's past and future at a glance. In his eyes, the conspiracies and schemes of those below the level of a saint were no secret. The reason he asked was to deliberately delay time so that he could play tricks on the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor.

Once Dao Ya Zun dies, Zang Tian Di Zu will realize it and will definitely retreat immediately.

Now that Dao Ya Zun is alive and hasn't made any noise, he has put Zang Tian Di Zu in a difficult position, caught between a rock and a hard place.

Although Emperor Hongyang is weak, he is filled with a rich aura of Heavenly Dao. If the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor forcibly captures him, he will unleash incredible power, which will surely alarm the Heavenly Court.

Whether it was the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor or the Hongqian Ancestor hidden deeper within, Gu An maintained a playful attitude towards them.

His true adversary is the sage hidden beyond the chaos.

He was willing to waste time with beings below the level of saints, firstly because he found it interesting, and secondly because he also needed time to strive for a higher realm.

Once the power of a sage is exposed, his future destiny will inevitably be accelerated, which is not what he wants to see.

Seeing that Dao Yazun didn't want to speak anymore, Gu An didn't force him, letting Dao Yazun continue to suffer.

Dao Ya Zun had planned how to torture Gu An before he made his move, so his current fate is nothing compared to what Gu An has already suffered.

Time passes minute by minute.

Dao Yazun's convulsions became more and more violent; the torment in his heart far exceeded the physical and spiritual pain.

He was thinking about the situation of the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor. He had not made a big commotion as planned to attract the siege of the immortals and gods, so the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor would definitely not be able to make a move.

At this moment, the Ancestor of Burial Heaven must be blaming him.

But more than complaining, he was worried that the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor would come looking for him.

This Heavenly Lord of Merit and Virtue is truly terrifying. He does not want the Ancestor of Burial Heaven to come, because if he does, their future will be ruined.

Even if he dies now, as long as the plan goes smoothly and the Emperor Ancestor attains enlightenment, he can be resurrected later!
This is also why he has always refused to back down.

"You think that even if I kill you, the legendary saint can resurrect you?"

Gu An's voice suddenly came, making Dao Ya Zun's hair stand on end. He looked up and his pupils trembled.

These were the most terrifying words he had ever heard in his countless years of life.

"you……"

Just as Dao Yazun was about to speak, his physical body suddenly vanished, along with his soul, turning to ashes.

[You have successfully seized 32,000,671,920,224,708,252 years of lifespan from Dao Cliff Venerable (Primordial Profound Venerable Immortal Realm Perfection).]

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Gu An's lips curled up.

The Primordial Profound Immortals are already immortal beings, and lifespan cannot limit them. This also proves that the evolution of lifespan is to seize more fundamental power, and lifespan is just a manifestation of this power.

Just after Dao Ya Zun died, Gu An sensed that the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor had attacked Emperor Hong Yang.

The difference in their cultivation levels was vast, but when Emperor Hongyang was injured, a powerful force erupted from his body, directly shattering the Great Dao power that the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor had placed over the Immortal Palace, alarming the entire Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Realm was filled with the aura of the Heavenly Dao, and even the mighty Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor could not escape directly. He could only grab Emperor Hongyang and force his way out. However, the Heavenly Emperor arrived extremely quickly.

This time, the Heavenly Emperor was truly enraged, because he had indeed failed to detect the infiltration of the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor.

Enraged, the Heavenly Emperor no longer concealed his intentions and launched a full-scale attack against the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor.

This wasn't their first encounter, but compared to the last time, the Heavenly Emperor felt both strange and familiar to him.

Gu An stood inside the Heavenly Palace of the Divine Steed of Merit, watching the battle. Not only him, but all the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Court were watching the battle. They saw the absolutely dominant Heavenly Emperor, and the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor was completely suppressed.

This battle was shorter than the last one, and the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor was quickly seriously injured and fled.

At this point, the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor will withdraw from his invasion of the Heavenly Dao, and will at least no longer be the Heavenly Court's number one enemy.

All the immortals and gods looked up at the high and mighty Heavenly Emperor with fanatical expressions.

This is the Heavenly Emperor in their hearts, the symbol of invincibility.

Gu An led the young divine steed away from the Heavenly Palace, and a tremendous uproar erupted in the Heavenly Court.

……

Beneath the dim sky, the earth lay desolate.

Amidst a pile of rubble, Dao Shuzun was sealed atop a towering boulder. His arms were held aloft by an invisible force, his head drooping, and he appeared to be on the verge of death.

A sound of footsteps came from ahead, causing Dao Shuzun's eyelids to tremble slightly.

The footsteps stopped quickly, and a figure was standing on the pile of rubble, looking at him.

"What... exactly do you want to do?"

Dao Shuzun gritted his teeth and asked. He could no longer tell how long he had been sealed. Even though he was sealed, the fire poison in his body was still ravaging him.

Damn the Heavenly Lord of Merit and Virtue!
And this mysterious guy...

This was not at all what Dao Shuzun had expected. He was a Hunyuan Tongxuan Venerable Immortal, and not a beginner. He had never been in such a sorry state before.
With his cultivation level, he could roam freely in any region of the Chaos, but since arriving in the Heavenly Dao, he hasn't had a single good day.

"I'm very curious about what kind of being you are, and what path you cultivate."

A cold voice rang out, its tone devoid of any emotion.

"If you want to know... then you'd better break my seal..."

Dao Shuzun said bitterly, feeling extremely aggrieved. He truly did not believe that the other party was stronger than the Heavenly Lord of Merit and Virtue.

He was sealed away because he was suffering from the torment of fire poison.

He was careless.

"Don't even mention you, even the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor behind you is no match for me. I'm not talking about fighting. Forget it, there's no point in arguing with a puppet like you."

The cold voice rang out again, and Dao Shuzun was startled when he mentioned the Burial Heaven Emperor Ancestor.

How could his relationship with the Burial Emperor Ancestor be known to others?

"you……"

Dao Shuzun wanted to raise his head, but he was powerless. As for his divine sense, it seemed to have disappeared long ago. He was now even more powerless than an ordinary person.

"The primordial will you seek is merely a partial understanding of yourselves. You have no idea what power you are trying to obtain. However, I can borrow your physical body for a while."

Upon hearing these words, Dao Shuzun felt fear and unease.

The other party is about to attack him!
