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

Chapter 1064 The Ultimate Legend
Have I been surpassed by the Heavenly Dao?

Ever since Gu An uttered those words, the Great Xuan Yin Ruler has been pondering this issue.

He knew that the Heavenly Emperor represented the Heavenly Dao, and the stronger the Heavenly Dao, the stronger the Heavenly Emperor was. Could it be that this new Heavenly Emperor had already become a saint?
He couldn't accept this. He could only think that perhaps the creation of Heaven was inherently superior to his own, otherwise he wouldn't have come to Heaven to seek reincarnation.

Compared to him, Ancestor Hongqian didn't think so much. After all, becoming a saint was a distant dream for him, and he was more concerned with how to become a saint.

He focused his attention on the demon boy who inherited the power of the Great Profound Yin Ruler. After he left, the demon boy's life continued to be full of hardships, and there was no major change because of his words.

Even knowing his origins, his temperament had already determined his fate.

The real turning point came a century later when the demon boy was being hunted down and was on the verge of death. As he fell into an abyss, his consciousness encountered the Great Xuan Yin Ruler. After making a choice, he inherited the power of the Great Xuan Yin Ruler, and from then on, his life began to change.

The demon boy cultivated in the abyss for a hundred years, undergoing a complete transformation. The first thing he did after being reborn was to seek revenge.

However, hatred never dies in the mortal world; old grudges will be replaced by new ones, and his life will enter a more tortuous period.

Gu An and the others did not leave this vast world, but instead planned to stay here for a while longer.

Thousands of years later.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, celestial palaces stand in rows. This is the power center of the Taiwei Great World, the celestial palace complex of the Holy Court.

Inside a cloud pavilion, Gu An was drinking tea and admiring the scenery outside. Hong Qian Ancestor and the Great Xuan Yin Sovereign stood by the pavilion, also observing the Holy Court.

Sitting opposite Gu An, Zhu Xi was very curious about the two of them. Her intuition told her that their cultivation was unfathomable, but they seemed to be her master's servants. She couldn't help but sigh, Wu Shi was truly amazing.

It's unclear when it started, but wherever she went, she could hear the name of Wushi, which seemed to have the reputation of being a sacred land of the Heavenly Dao. The key point is that the Heavenly Court did not suppress Wushi, which led to much speculation from various forces.

"Master, what brings you to Taiwei? Is there anything I can do to help you?" Zhu Xi asked Gu An respectfully.

The two did not spend a very long time as master and disciple, but Zhu Xi often received help from Gu An in the years that followed. Many times she did not see Gu An, but she could sense that someone was helping her in secret.

Today, Gu An suddenly visited and sent her a telepathic message. She was initially stunned and somewhat at a loss.

"Just taking a stroll, happened to be passing by," Gu An said with a soft laugh.

Zhu Xi, however, dared not take it seriously, feeling that her master must have something important to discuss. Her expression shifted between light and dark as she asked, "Is it trouble with the Heavenly Court?"

She didn't think her master was sent by the Heavenly Court; rather, she felt that the Heavenly Court was looking for trouble with her, and her master was there to warn her.

She was once a celestial being in the Heavenly Court and still holds a celestial position. She knows the power of the Heavenly Court well, which is far beyond her ability to resist. Even her master probably wouldn't dare to oppose the Heavenly Court.

"What are you thinking? I was just passing by. I've been here for a thousand years. If you don't believe me, ask them." Gu An shook his head, his tone somewhat helpless.

Ancestor Hongqian nodded and said, "That's right. We have been traveling through the heavens for twenty million years, and we are not going there for any particular goal."

He couldn't understand Gu An's behavior before, but now he's gradually getting to know it. He's disdainful of others' lack of understanding, and if this woman hadn't called Gu An "Master," he wouldn't have bothered with her.

It has to be said that this sage has a lot of disciples and followers, and they are not all concentrated in one place. Gu An always seems to run into acquaintances wherever he goes.

Most importantly, these people had no idea that he was a saint.

In this regard, Ancestor Hongqian had great respect for Gu An. Not to mention becoming a saint, when he entered the Xuanqi Hunyuan Immortal Realm, he swept through the Chaos, as if afraid that others would not know. The reason he was low-key now was because he had already enjoyed the fame.

Zhu Xi was filled with admiration upon hearing that her master had traveled for so long. She exclaimed, "Master, you are a true saint. Ever since I met you, you have never sought fame or fortune. You live a simple life, yet you are content."

Light and bland?

Ancestor Hongqian almost spoke up. The Great Xuanyin Ruler silently turned away.

"And you, have you run into trouble, perhaps related to the Heavenly Court?" Gu An asked as if they were having a casual conversation.

Zhu Xi remained silent for a moment, then began to pour out her grievances and reveal her situation.

The internal strife within the Heavenly Court intensified, and she sensed something was wrong. Fearing that one wrong step would plunge her into an abyss, she returned to the Taiwei Great World to cultivate. Many immortals and gods followed her example, which led to an increasing number of immortals and gods in the Three Thousand Great Worlds.

So when Gu An came, she was startled. She didn't expect to be targeted so quickly.

"Master, how many years do you think this turmoil will last?" Zhu Xi asked Gu An earnestly.

Gu An lowered his eyes, looked at the teacup in front of him, and replied, "It will end in ten million years."

Ancestor Hongqian's expression turned solemn; he was secretly alarmed.

Will the Heavenly Emperor become a saint in tens of millions of years?

When the Heavenly Emperor becomes a saint, not only will the Heavenly Dao undergo a tremendous change, but the entire Chaos will likely be affected.

"So long?" Zhu Xi frowned.

Even for a deity like her, tens of millions of years is a very long time.

Gu An did not respond, but looked at the most magnificent celestial palace in the distance. The celestial palace was located before sunset and was a symbol of the Holy Court's fortune.

Zhu Xi noticed his gaze and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Gu An asked, "Has an ultimate legend been circulating in your Holy Court lately?"

Zhu Xi raised an eyebrow and pressed on, "Master, do you know anything about the Legend of the Ultimate? It is true, but I didn't take it seriously. The legend says that obtaining the power of the Ultimate can overturn everything and reverse time and space. It sounds too mystical. I've never even heard of it in the Heavenly Realm."

"It is indeed true, but obtaining this power is even more difficult than becoming a Heavenly Dao Supreme."

Gu An replied that the so-called ultimate legend was actually the ultimate Dao-Merging Emperor.

This great realm was once famous throughout the Heavenly Court during the previous catastrophe, but only the higher-ups knew about it, since it was a realm that even the Heavenly Dao Supreme could not reach.

Currently, the Heavenly Court still only has one Supreme Daoist Emperor.

"Really?" Zhu Xi frowned again.

How could such a legend of power circulate within the Holy Court?

Her first suspicion was a conspiracy!
Someone is plotting against her and her Holy Court.

“You guessed right, someone is indeed plotting against the Holy Court, and that person happens to possess supreme power.” Gu An said this while looking at Zhu Xi.

Zhu Xi's expression changed slightly, and she asked cautiously, "What does my Holy Court have that he would scheme against?"

Gu An replied with a half-smile, "Because your fortune has changed."

These words confused Zhu Xi even more, but Ancestor Hongqian was not calm. He stared at her intently, making her very uncomfortable, as if the two of them had a blood feud.
