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

Chapter 1015 An Old Friend Visits
The news that Wu Xie was going to fight alongside Gu An spread like wildfire, which led many second-generation disciples to approach Gu An, wanting to go as well. Unfortunately, Gu An refused them all, saying he would find another opportunity later.

Gu An didn't care that Wu Xie had spread the news. After all, the younger generation always has a bit of vanity, and besides, the news was only circulating within Wu Shi.

Time flies.

A century has passed in the blink of an eye.

When Wu Xie was getting impatient, Gu An finally sent him a telepathic message, asking him to come to Wuzhong Mountain.

Wu Xie rarely comes to Wuzhong Mountain, not because he is not qualified, but because he has no reason to. His relationship with the second-generation disciples is not close, so he rarely comes to bother them.

He came to the outside of the courtyard, but dared not step in, and waited where he was.

Shen Zhen, who was inside the courtyard, looked at him and said, "If someone guides you to pursue other powers, don't be fooled."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie was immediately confused. He had long heard that Shen Zhen was skilled at deducing cause and effect, so he did not question him, but instead thought about the upcoming battle.

He nodded solemnly to Shen Zhen, then raised his hand in a salute.

Just as he was about to speak, Gu An's door opened.

Today, Gu An was dressed in a flawless white robe, and the sunlight shone on him, making Wu Xie have to admit that his ancestor was indeed a true immortal.

Among the disciples of Wushi, there were many outstanding ones, and Wuxie was also a handsome man. However, anyone standing next to the patriarch would pale in comparison and become inconspicuous.

Gu An walked out of the courtyard, passed by him, and said, "Let's go."

Wu Xie immediately followed Gu An's steps.

The two entered the woods, but Wu Xie's mind was already in a state of chaos; he couldn't wait to fight.

Inside the Wushi Dojo, he sparred with others many times, but never went all out. He wanted to know just how strong he really was.

He was more interested in what it felt like to fight until he was completely exhausted.

Gu An wasn't in a hurry; he strolled leisurely ahead.

He wasn't walking very fast. Wu Xie estimated that at this pace, it would probably take him three or four hours to reach the foot of the mountain.

Isn't it necessary?

Wu Xie knew that the patriarch liked a slow-paced life, but this was too slow.

Although he was complaining in his heart, Wu Xie didn't dare to say it out loud, after all, they had only just begun their journey.

We must not let the patriarch look down on him!

Wu Xie, rouse your spirits! We've waited a hundred years, what's a day or two more?
Just then, Wu Xie's environment suddenly changed. A bright light appeared in front of him, engulfing the world in his eyes and causing him to squint subconsciously.

Before the bright light had faded, he heard a commotion that grew louder and louder.

The intense light ahead began to dissipate, revealing a starry sky surging with flames, which attracted Wu Xie's attention.

"This is……"

Wu Xie was shocked. They were just at Wuzhong Mountain, how did they suddenly arrive in the outer heavens?

He didn't sense any change in space at all; the patriarch's supernatural powers shocked him.

Wait, isn't this beyond the heavens, but some distant chaos?
Wu Xie immediately became excited and took out his Dao treasure, ready to fight.

Just then, Wu Xie felt a warm aura on his body, causing him to subconsciously look down and see a silver armor appear on his body.

Not only him, but Gu An, who was walking in front, was also wearing silver armor, and his temperament became extraordinary and majestic.

"The armor of the gods?"

Wu Xie instantly understood, which made him admire his ancestor even more. The ancestor had suddenly taken him into the battlefield and even dressed him in the armor of immortals and gods, which was an amazing experience.

A figure appeared ahead, a woman clad in armor, with a white, dragon-like, ethereal serpent standing beside her.

"This is no joke, there are just too many of those guys to kill!"

The White Spirit Demon Emperor's cry came from ahead, sounding somewhat broken. The female deity beside it was naturally Lu Lingjun.

Lu Lingjun stopped in the void, recovering her magic power while replying, "It can't be endless. Now it's all about willpower."

At this moment, the intense light in Wu Xie's eyes completely dissipated, and the entire chaotic battlefield appeared before his eyes. He looked around and saw the figures of gods in all directions, as well as countless terrifying demons. Various supernatural powers were colliding and shaking the void.

The scorching heat surged towards Wu Xie, giving him a sense of reality.

Gu An walked forward and said with a smile, "Indeed, it can't be endless; we'll eventually kill them all."

Upon hearing his voice, Lu Lingjun and Bai Ling Demon Emperor turned around abruptly to look at him. When they saw Gu An's true face, they were overjoyed.

"Why are you here again?"

Where did you go before?

The human and the demon asked in unison, "After fighting side by side last time, Gu An suddenly disappeared, and none of the other gods noticed this. They were amazed by Gu An's methods and puzzled by his intentions."

"Let's fight first; now is not the time for reminiscing."

Gu An smiled and raised his right hand, conjuring a long spear.

Wu Xie was curious when he saw that they knew each other, but he didn't ask too many questions because demons were already attacking him.

A battle more exciting and dangerous than he had imagined was about to begin!

……

Dusk.

Gu An and Wu Xie walked along the mountain ridge. His armor came off, revealing him dressed in white. He had a smile on his face and was in a good mood.

This battle granted him a huge lifespan, and he even hummed a little tune.

Wu Xie followed behind, his silver armor still intact, covered in bloodstains—some deep red, some dark purple—a crisscrossing, horrifying sight.

His helmet was gone, his hair was disheveled, his eyes were lifeless, and he walked with a stagger, as if he might collapse at any moment.

Even though he was already a Great Immortal of the Open Heaven Realm, this battle left him exhausted.

The chaotic demons used all sorts of methods, including supernatural powers that could mentally torment him. Even now, after the battle ended, he still experiences hallucinations from time to time.

His Great Luo Dao Fruit has withered and is no longer able to generate magical power. He needs a period of rest and recuperation until the karmic consequences dissipate before he can recover.

Gu An did not help him recover, but let him fully experience the feeling of chaotic battle.

An Zizai suddenly appeared in front of him. When he saw Wu Xie's condition, he frowned and bowed to Gu An.

"Grandmaster, is he alright?" An Zizai asked.

"It's alright, it will be fine in a while."

Gu An casually replied that he had actually been helping Wu Xie all along; if it weren't for his intervention, Wu Xie would have been torn to pieces by Miao Zhen Daluo Xian.

"Where did you go? What kind of enemies did you encounter?" An Zizai asked curiously.

"Ask him when he wakes up."

Gu An did not stop and walked past An Zizai.

An Zizai was not disappointed and continued, "Grandmaster, an old friend has come to see you. Senior Shen Zhen also knows him. That person is already waiting for you at Wuzhong Mountain. He said he has a great opportunity to share with you."

When this matter was mentioned, An Zizai's expression was quite strange.

In his view, the other party was simply ignorant. His grandmaster had already become a Heavenly Lord; what greater opportunity could there be?
"It really is an old friend; it's been a long time."

Gu An sighed, but did not quicken his pace.
