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

Chapter 1047 Beyond the Heavenly Dao
Ancestor Hongqian felt dizzy and his body was constantly crashing into things. Even his soul was being shaken and was in pain. He couldn't think straight at all.

After a dozen or so hours, he finally fell to the ground.

He struggled to open his eyes, and billowing dust enveloped him. He propped himself up, and the dust dissipated.

Above him was a dazzling starry sky, with magnificent and beautiful nebulae, while beneath him was the earth, which he had smashed into a huge crater.

He looked down at his hands and saw that his skin was gradually turning to stone; the karma of this life was dissipating.

He is dying!

"Saint...Saint..."

Ancestor Hongqian muttered to himself in a trembling voice, his tone filled with fear.

A sage was hidden in the chaos!

This made him feel utterly hopeless, and all his past plans seemed ridiculous.

He always thought he was the strongest after the shattering of Hongmeng, but he never expected that it was all just his own arrogance.

He believed that the sage was omniscient and omnipotent, and that his schemes and actions could not escape the sage's eyes.

Judging from the conversation between Hongyi and that sage, they clearly knew each other long ago.

Ancestor Hongqian was lost in thought, his back hunched over, and his eyes dimmed.

Although he was devastated, he could accept dying at the hands of a saint, though he still felt some regret before he died.

"Perhaps this is why I cannot attain enlightenment; in the face of death, I am no different from those mortals."

Hongqian Ancestor smiled bitterly as he slowly closed his eyes, and his face began to petrify.

After he was completely petrified, a gust of wind blew by, and he turned into ashes, which were scattered by the wind.

at the same time.

Gu An and the others had already returned to Zhongtian. Su Han and Long Teng did not move, gazing at the wasteland, lost in a daze.

Previously, Gu An deliberately let them experience some of the pressure from Ancestor Hong Qian to broaden their horizons.

If Gu Anzai were not around, Hongqian Ancestor could have wiped them all out with a single glance, including Hongyi.

Even the Supreme Dao Emperor could annihilate beings of lower realms with a flick of his finger. Even the Primordial Profound Immortal was nothing more than an ant before him, and there was no possibility of him crossing realms to contend with them.

Gu An raised his right hand and caught a small cauldron. The cauldron was pitch black, with faint dark purple characters shimmering on all four sides. If anyone else looked at this cauldron, they would surely have their souls stolen and become empty shells. Even a Great Immortal of the Great Dao would be in the same situation.

To catch it with your hands, you would need to reach at least the Mysterious Qi Primordial Immortal Realm.

This is none other than the Myriad Laws Annihilation Great Cauldron of Ancestor Hongqian, which can be considered the strongest magic treasure within the Chaos Realm.

Of course, with Gu An's current cultivation level, it wouldn't be difficult to refine a magic weapon stronger than it, it just takes time.

He took out a thin rope and tied the Great Venerable Cauldron of the Annihilation of All Laws to his belt. After doing all this, he turned to look at Hongyi, who was still gazing at the sky in a daze.

"What? Are you scared out of your wits?"

Gu An asked in a teasing tone, pulling Hongyi back to reality.

Hongyi turned to look at Gu An. She did not refute him, but took a deep breath and said, "I was careless and greatly underestimated his strength."

She had considered the possibility that Ancestor Hongqian was stronger than herself, but with Gu An there, she felt very confident.

I just didn't expect the gap between her and Ancestor Hongqian to be so huge.

Gu An then said, "Go back and cultivate. I already have arrangements for this little guy."

Hongyi nodded, her gaze sweeping over Su Han and Long Teng before she vanished into thin air. Whether it was Su Han and Long Teng's imagination or not, they sensed a hint of hostility.

The most lively of them all, Su Han, quickly came to Gu An's side and excitedly asked, "Grandmaster, who was that old man just now, and who was that woman?"

Although he didn't see clearly how Gu An dealt with Hong Qian, Hong Qian's figure, magic weapons, and supernatural powers shocked him. Even now, thinking back on it, he still feels lingering fear.

Amidst his fear, he was mostly excited.

He couldn't imagine what level Hongqian Ancestor was at, but such a battle was definitely a rare sight.

"You'll know later. Telling you now is something you can't bear the consequences of."

Gu An answered casually, his gaze falling on the black lotus, which was still trembling, with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowing towards it.

Upon hearing this, Su Han dared not ask any further questions. Given the strength displayed by Ancestor Hongqian, it was indeed difficult for him to bear the consequences.

He also turned his gaze to the black lotus. What was the origin of this black lotus that could attract the attention of such a powerful being?
The Great Dao is as vast as the Nine Heavens...

Su Han decided that he would investigate this so-called Great Dao Nine Realms thoroughly in the future.

Long Teng was still immersed in the power of Ancestor Hongqian, and he found that he could not suppress his longing for this power.

If he were that powerful, what would the sins of the Dragon Clan matter?
He can create a great deal of merit to cleanse that part of his sins!
……

Under the blue sky, within the Juhuazong Islands.

Gu An and Jiang Qiong stood side by side on the edge of the terrace, enjoying the beautiful scenery. Jiang Qiong looked down at the two figures in the square below, one tall and one short, which were Su Han and a boy who looked to be six or seven years old.

The boy was none other than Hongyuan, who had successfully transformed into human form. He had already become Su Han's disciple, and the two were playfully fighting.

"That child's background seems quite extraordinary."

Jiang Qiong asked, and although Hong Yuan's movements were not fierce, she felt a chill when he swung his fists and feet.

She was a woman of considerable experience and had endured many hardships, but this was the first time she had been frightened by such a small child.

If this child hadn't been brought by Gu An, she would have definitely subdued him and studied him carefully.

"He is indeed extraordinary. He comes from outside the Heavenly Dao. Of course, the birth of the Heavenly Dao is also related to him."

Gu Anyun spoke casually, but his words caused Jiang Qiong's expression to change slightly.

It does not make sense?

Beyond the Way of Heaven?

Is it also related to the birth of the Heavenly Dao?
Jiang Qiong couldn't tell if Gu An was joking. She was silent for a moment, then asked, "You tricked the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor?"

Gu An rolled his eyes and said irritably, "What do you mean by lying? I saved him, okay? Besides, he's not the Heavenly Emperor."

He then told Jiang Qiong about the origin of the Great Dao Jiu Hong, which broadened Jiang Qiong's horizons.

She had never been to the Chaos, and didn't even know how vast the Heavenly Dao was. How could she not be surprised that Gu An was telling her about things before the birth of the Heavenly Dao?
After Gu An finished speaking, Jiang Qiong stared at him and asked quietly, "You weren't born before the Heavenly Dao, were you?"

“You didn’t guess like this before,” Gu An said with a shake of his head and a laugh.

Jiang Qiong took a deep breath and said, "There's nothing I can do, you've improved so fast that it's hard for me to believe you're younger than me."

Gu An looked at Hong Yuan and asked, "Does your Juhua Sect want to take off?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiong immediately became interested and asked curiously, "How does one take off?"

“Let this boy become a disciple of the Juhua Sect. He will lead you to your peak, and you will also help him integrate into the Heavenly Dao. When he becomes an immortal, this will be a great merit,” Gu An said in a mysterious tone.
