If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.
Chapter 1091 No Bottleneck
Chapter 1091 No Bottleneck
After leaving Zhongtian, Gu An didn't care that the cultivators recognized his identity, since it didn't affect him at all.
They arrived once again at the edge of the Heavenly Dao, a world born after the Heavenly Emperor became a saint. Here, myriad races had emerged, and all living beings had touched upon the path of cultivation. However, compared to the Three Thousand Great Worlds, it was still far behind and belonged to the mortal realm.
Gu An was still riding the black horse he had carefully selected in Heaven, while Ancestor Hongqian held the reins and recounted his glorious deeds.
He was very satisfied with teaching the Purple Willow Ancestor a lesson on behalf of Li Xuandao. He felt that he had finally done something for Gu An, even though it was a small matter. At least he was of use.
Fueled by this emotion, he recounted the enemies he had encountered in the chaos and his victories. He was full of pride and high spirits, while Gu An watched him with a smile, which only intensified his desire to confide.
The three people and one horse walked along the mountain ridge under the bright sun. Beside them was a rushing river that stretched for thousands of miles, its momentum as powerful as a tiger.
Gu An bounced with the rise and fall of the horse's back. He was in a good mood and enjoyed listening to Hong Qian's boasting. His thoughts were also on the past.
He wasn't thinking about his past in the Tai Xuan Sect, but about the much longer past.
In his past life, living a mediocre life in a bustling city, did he ever imagine that he would have this day?
Perhaps I've thought about it, but it's just unrealistic fantasy.
Gu An felt incredibly at ease and even extremely satisfied, but this very mindset made him feel uneasy.
We can be satisfied, but we cannot let our guard down.
If he can rise to prominence without the attention of powerful beings in the chaos, then someone else might emerge out of nowhere without his noticing; nothing is absolute.
The Supreme Saint of Limitless Origin was still not satisfied with Gu An.
Gu An could see the direction to move forward, and as long as there was a road ahead, he could not stop.
What comes after Wuji (the ultimate void)?
Gu An began to contemplate the future by recalling his memories.
The entire chaos held no secrets for him. To move forward, he needed to explore the unknown, enrich his knowledge, and generate more thought.
If that's not possible, then we'll just have to keep using cheat codes.
Gu An wasn't deliberately avoiding lifespan evolution; he was simply waiting. If he could comprehend the Dao on his own before his lifespan accumulated to a certain level, that would be ideal. Once his lifespan reached the breakthrough threshold, he would break through immediately without hesitation.
Perhaps it was because his life had been so smooth that Gu An was so kind to those around him and willing to give opportunities to strangers he met by chance, without asking for anything in return.
"No bottlenecks..."
Gu An muttered to himself, as if he had grasped something.
Ancestor Hongqian turned his head and asked curiously, "Master, who doesn't have a bottleneck?"
"Of course it's Master, what else could it be but you?" the Great Xuan Yin Ruler said irritably.
Hearing Ancestor Hongqian boast about the past, he really wanted to take action. If he hadn't seen Gu An's happy expression, he would have already acted.
Hongqian Patriarch was very annoyed by his retort, but dared not say anything, because Gu An had allowed them to spar.
His exchange of blows with the Great Xuan Yin Ruler was called a friendly sparring match?
Every time Ancestor Hongqian thought about this matter, he felt a sense of resentment, but dared not speak out against it.
"It's nothing. I was just thinking about whether there is a path in this world that has no bottlenecks and no limits," Gu An said with a slight smile. A gentle breeze ruffled his hair, fully revealing his handsome face.
Intrigued by his words, Ancestor Hongqian asked curiously, "No bottlenecks, no limits? Are you referring to cultivation level?"
“Cultivation is only one aspect; it also includes mindset, vision, pace, and so on.”
Gu An replied, which made Ancestor Hongqian even more confused.
Aren't these things something that can be improved simply by increasing one's cultivation level? The Great Profound Yin Ruler thought even deeper.
Is he trying to create a path similar to the path of immortal cultivation?
Is there a path of spiritual practice that has never been seen before?
The Great Xuan Yin Ruler was knowledgeable and experienced, having seen many paths to immortality, but they were all branches of the same path, different in origin but the same in destination.
The thought that Gu An's realm surpassed that of a saint made him feel that Gu An might actually achieve it.
If Gu Anzhen creates a Dao without limits, wouldn't he also be able to surpass the saints?
The Great Xuan Yin Ruler's heart raced, and he immediately said, "There is indeed no one in the world, but there is you beyond the world. Just like the Chaos before, cultivators like Hong Qian could not even imagine the existence of a saint."
Although Ancestor Hongqian was ridiculed, he was not stupid and quickly figured out what the Great Xuan Yin Ruler was thinking.
“That’s right, Master. Even if we don’t have one, we’re waiting for you to create one,” Ancestor Hongqian said immediately, his eyes full of anticipation.
Gu An smiled but didn't say anything, though he could definitely sense their anticipation.
Unbeknownst to him, he had already carried a lot of hope on his shoulders. He didn't feel pressured or resistant to it; on the contrary, he enjoyed it.
He amazed even his closest friends and family, and he felt that sense of accomplishment was even better than having real power.
"The future is long, let's wait and see."
Gu An's voice drifted up and floated away with the wind. The three figures looked so small from the sea of clouds, like dust in the sky.
……
As time went by, Li Xuandao preached the Dao, and the story of Ancestor Hongqian attacking Ancestor Ziliu spread widely in Zhongtian and even reached the Heavenly Court.
As an existence surpassing the Great Dao Immortal, even immortals and gods would have to pay their respects to Patriarch Ziliu. Unexpectedly, he suffered such a great loss.
News of Ancestor Hongqian serving Ancestor Wushi spread like wildfire, and the great beings of the heavens were curious about just how powerful Ancestor Wushi truly was.
The celestial beings and gods of the Heavenly Court suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. If it's the Primordial Ancestor, then it makes sense."
Because they all knew that the Primordial Ancestor was the Supreme God of Merit and Virtue, a powerful being who had once saved the Heavenly Court, with a lofty status and mysterious identity.
When Gu An finally returned to the Heavenly Palace of the Divine Steed of Merit, Xuanqing Star Lord came to find him and told him about the matter, saying that although Gu An had not yet made a move, he was already famous throughout the entire Heavenly Dao.
Besides Xuanqing Xingjun, there was another person in the hall, namely the Great Heavenly Steed who held power on behalf of Gu An.
The great steed transformed into a fairy in a white dress, bright and beautiful, with an ethereal air, but her expression was cold.
She stared at Xuanqing Xingjun with hostility in her eyes, making him very uncomfortable.
Xuanqing Xingjun could only ignore her and looked at Gu An, saying, "Your Majesty, the Heavenly Court is probably going to cause trouble again."
Gu An said casually, "His Majesty has become a saint, is there any trouble he can't solve?"
Xuanqing Star Lord glanced at the Great Heavenly Steed, then looked at Gu An, and gritted his teeth, saying, "To be honest, His Majesty's Saint Realm may have fallen!"
Upon hearing this, the Great Heavenly Steed was clearly surprised, and its eyes changed.
Gu An frowned, but inwardly he was laughing.
They're playing this trick again!
"In the last battle with the Holy Venerable Xingdao, His Majesty was seriously injured. Recently, a black flame has appeared in the depths of chaos that cannot be extinguished. Anyone who gets stuck to it will have their personality drastically changed. Not long ago, I discovered that some immortals and gods brought this flame back to the Heavenly Court. After my investigation, I found that it was done by a Heavenly Dao Supreme."
Xuanqing Xingjun frowned and sighed.
Within the Heavenly Court, only the Heavenly Dao Supreme Being was beyond his jurisdiction to investigate. Every internal calamity of the Heavenly Court involved a Supreme Being, which puzzled him.
