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

Chapter 1020 Creation and Variables

Beyond all living beings?
After listening to this, Anxin narrowed her eyes.

She was not afraid of the power of that being; instead, she wondered if her master also surpassed all living beings.
If even such an existence is not taken seriously by the master, it is hard to imagine what level the master is at.
Gu An was speechless when he heard An Xin's thoughts. What was wrong with this girl's thought process? Was this the time to be concerned about her teacher's cultivation?

You need to be nervous!

Get nervous!

"This being that is devouring the Great Dao is a truly eternal and indestructible being, whose power is far beyond your imagination."

Gu An spoke again, and An Xin nodded in agreement.

She sighed, "The Great Dao is boundless, yet such a powerful being is secretly devouring it. I wonder who he is afraid of, or perhaps he exists in a world we cannot even imagine. I'm really curious about such a world."

Her gaze toward Gu An became intense, filled with longing.

Gu An rolled his eyes again. He realized that he couldn't scare this disciple at all.

Oh well, what can I do? He spoiled her like that.

"Don't look at me anymore, I'll take you next time, okay?" Gu An finally relented, and An Xin beamed with joy upon hearing this, bowing to thank him.

……

In the void surging with boundless flames, tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals are relentlessly battling against endless demons, as if trying to tear apart a vast black ocean.

Lu Lingjun and Bai Ling Demon Emperor were in the middle of the Heavenly Army. The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were changing positions, and they had just moved in from the very edge and were catching their breath.

Why isn't Gu An here yet?

The White Spirit Demon Emperor said weakly, "Gu An appeared more than ten times during the previous battle. I didn't feel anything when we fought together, but as soon as Gu An was gone, I felt a suffocating sense of oppression."

If the battle continued like this, it felt that it might be annihilated at any moment, because the evil they were facing was getting stronger and stronger.

Just as Lu Lingjun was about to speak, a familiar voice came:

"What? You miss me that much?"

Lu Lingjun subconsciously turned around to look, and a smile bloomed on her face.

Gu An, clad in silver armor, stood behind them. Not only that, An Xin stood beside him, also wearing the armor of a celestial being.

Their appearance went unnoticed by other immortals and gods; only Lu Lingjun and Bai Ling Demon Emperor noticed them.

Lu Lingjun and Bai Ling Demon Emperor were already used to this. They even nodded to An Xin. They had known An Xin since their time at Tai Xuan Sect, and this was not the first time Gu An had brought An Xin to participate in the battle.

The White Spirit Demon Emperor was both shocked and speechless that Gu An had been bringing his disciples here for training without being noticed by the gods.

It cannot evaluate Gu An's behavior.

"What's your opinion on this great battle?" Lu Lingjun asked.

Gu An gripped his spear and said, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate."

Lu Lingjun rolled her eyes, unable to answer these words.

Before they could talk much, the heavenly soldiers and generals around them began to move, and they changed their formation accordingly.

With Gu An's help, she could unleash the Immortal Emperor's Eye without restraint, and it would be impossible for other beings to detect it.

Knowing that an extremely terrifying being was devouring the Great Dao, An Xin appeared calm and collected, but in reality, he also felt a sense of urgency.

No matter how much she trusts her master, only when she is strong enough can she truly be fearless. In this battle, she will refine her Immortal Emperor Eyes!
……

Since Gu An assigned missions to the second-generation disciples, Wuzhong Mountain has become much quieter. The disciples no longer bother him, and even Shen Zhen has returned to his cave to cultivate.

Even without anyone to keep her company, Gu An didn't feel awkward. After being surrounded by crowds for so long, it was nice to enjoy some time alone.

At noon that day, he hid alone on the steps of the courtyard, kneading mud with his hands.

He was creating living beings and studying the ways of creation.

He would cast the creatures he created into the human world; he would neither destroy them nor keep them by his side.

He didn't use any special water or soil; he just dug some up from the yard.

He sculpted not only humans, but also other kinds of creatures. After shaping them, he would throw them into the Great River of Dao, letting these earthen beings randomly fall into various places in the world.

After creating dozens of earth spirits in one go, Gu An stopped. He sat there, motionless, his gaze transcending time and space.

He sent a portion of the earth spirit into the past chaos to see what the effect would be.

The reason he didn't send it to the past of the Heavenly Dao was that he was afraid it would affect the people he knew, thereby increasing the backlash from the Great Dao.

With his cultivation level, he was naturally no longer afraid of the backlash from the Great Dao, but his old friends were different. Their fates were prone to change and cause and effect, and they were rejected by the Great Dao.

The fates of those earth spirits unfolded before his eyes, and by observing these fates, he deepened his understanding of the Great Dao.

The earth spirit created by the sage is quite talented, after all, it was infused with Gu An's Dao intent, so even if it was done casually, it is still a great fortune.

It's not impossible for Gu An to create another Heavenly Dao now, but he doesn't know if he can reach the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao as it is now, since the annihilated Primordial Chaos cannot be fully revealed to him yet.

These earth spirits each have their own achievements, some even surpassing the Great Luo Immortal of Dao and reaching the higher level of the Primordial Chaos Immortal of Profound Qi.

The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the karmic backlash. When the karmic consequences of the Great Dao entangled Gu An, he casually patted his shoulder and dispelled them.

Even if he were to go back in time and destroy the Heavenly Dao, Gu An wouldn't suffer any consequences; it would simply bring him no benefit.

If he destroys the Heavenly Dao, the Primordial Chaos will reunite, and the Great Dao and the Nine Primordial Chaos will be the catalyst.

Gu An was so engrossed in the twists and turns of fate that he gradually forgot about time.

He only woke up when the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower came to call him.

It is now autumn, and fallen leaves cover the courtyard.

The Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower stood in front of Gu An, staring at him curiously.

Before Gu An came to his senses, he exuded an aura that fascinated the Ephemeral Flower Ghost Mother. This aura made her want to get closer, and the closer she got, the faster her Dao Fruit circulated, and there were also strange changes, as if her cultivation was increasing.

After standing in front of Gu An for just a short while, she felt that her cultivation had surpassed a thousand years of accumulation. If she hadn't taken Gu An's herb-gathering matter very seriously, she would have almost lost herself in it.

Gu An looked up at the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower, a smile on his face, and slowly stood up. He then walked towards the courtyard, with the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower following behind him.

As they walked into the mountains, Gu An admired the autumn scenery along the way and asked, "Ghost Mother, after so many years of cultivation, what is your goal? What do you think you want most in life?"

The Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower was not surprised, because Gu An often asked her questions suddenly. She didn't think about it and said directly, "I seem to have no desires now, but I feel a great sense of accomplishment about the changes in the temple. What I want seems to be constantly changing. The only thing I can be sure of is that everything only has meaning when I am by your side."

Gu An was not satisfied with this answer, and he followed up by asking, "Are you curious about how big Chaos is, and what the scenery outside Chaos is like?"
