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

Chapter 110 Ancestor Xuantian, Heaven-Severing Divine Axe

Since Lu Xian was dealt with by Gu An, he has become completely obedient. Whenever Gu An goes to Tianya Valley, he is in seclusion cultivating. Luo Hun said that he wants to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm as soon as possible.

When Gu An asked for the reason, Luo Hun said he didn't know either, which put Gu An at ease. Although Lü Xian was crazy, he was very tight-lipped.

That matter is now in the past.

Gu An studied the map given by Lü Xian, but it was too far from the Taicang Dynasty, so he had to put it aside for the time being.

What if there are Mahayana cultivators in that place?

Can't take any chances!

The lifespan income in the Three Medicine Valley is quite considerable now; even without improvement, his lifespan can increase rapidly.

A blink of an eye.

Two months have passed.

The withered yellow of autumn covered Xuan Valley. On this day, near noon, Ye Lan came to visit her.

It had been almost a year since they last saw each other, and Ye Lan missed Gu An terribly. She hugged him as soon as she entered the house.

"Junior sister!"

Gu An said in a deep voice, his tone blaming.

Ye Lan let go of him, chuckled, and said, "What's wrong with a hug? It's just a courtesy between senior and junior brothers and sisters after a long separation. Senior brother, don't overthink it. I don't want to think about children right now; I just want to cultivate immortality."

Gu An rolled her eyes at her, then turned around and made her some tea.

He had subconsciously cast a lifespan probe at Ye Lan just now, which made him feel somewhat heavy-hearted.

【Ye Lan (Foundation Establishment Realm Level 5): 56/130/130】

The normal lifespan of a Foundation Establishment cultivator is over two hundred years, but Ye Lan's Foundation Establishment realm was built up by Gu An's pills, so she had already reached her limit long ago.

What will happen when Ye Lan reaches the age of 130?
Was it the five signs of decay in a living being, leading to a sudden death, or was it an encounter with inner demons, causing blood and qi to attack the heart?

Gu An sighed inwardly and decided to pass on the Dao Yan Gong to Ye Lan. There were still seventy-four years left, and perhaps it would be effective.

Dao Yan Gong is a process of accumulating spiritual power, and Gu An has a bold idea.

What happens if someone consumes a lot of spiritual energy pills while cultivating the Dao Yan Gong?

Ye Lan, unaware of her senior brother's thoughts, began to recount what she had seen and heard during her trip.

She went out to protect Crown Prince Li Dai, and the enemy was the Ephemeral Flower Sect. In the past six months, she experienced seven or eight battles and survived without any major incidents.

Gu An already knew about this, because he would occasionally use his divine sense to visit her. The disciples of the Enforcement Hall were basically used as spies, and the ones who actually fought were several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.

"Senior brother, the reason we were able to return is because a Void Transcending Realm cultivator came to protect the Crown Prince. Above the Nascent Soul Realm is the Deity Transformation Realm, and above the Deity Transformation Realm is the Void Transcending Realm. That senior was so powerful; he killed a Deity Transformation Realm demonic cultivator from the Ephemeral Flower Sect with a single palm strike. At that time, we all thought we were doomed. We never expected that the Crown Prince had such a powerful expert behind him. It is said that this person is not a cultivator from the Tai Xuan Sect." Ye Lan was very excited when she mentioned the Void Transcending Realm cultivator.

Gu An raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise, and asked, "So amazing? How old must you be?"

"It's said that he's nine hundred years old." Ye Lan said this while carefully observing Gu An's expression.

She once suspected that Gu An was the Sword Master of the Dao. During the chaos in the outer sect, her White Spirit Sword sensed the Azure Phoenix Sword. The sword that carved the words "Righteous Path" on the Heaven-Mending Platform was the Azure Phoenix Sword!

However, after she learned more, she realized that the Sword Master Fudao was at least beyond the Nascent Soul Realm, which made her hesitate again.

She grew up with Gu An and knew his age.

A Void Transcending Realm expert in his fifties or sixties?
This is unheard of in the world of cultivation!

Furthermore, since Gu An consistently refused to admit that he was the Sword Master of the Dao, she suspected that Gu An was the Sword Master of the Dao's disciple.

In either case, Ye Lan felt unworthy of her senior brother, so now she rarely expressed her feelings and focused more on her cultivation.

Once her cultivation level improves and her senior brother wants to find a Daoist partner, that will be her opportunity!

Gu An sighed, "Junior Sister, the cultivators you encounter are getting higher and higher, but it seems difficult for your cultivation to increase. Why don't you practice Senior Brother's techniques?"

"What kind of cultivation technique?" Ye Lan asked curiously.

The Gale Shadowless Kick that Gu An gave her was already her strongest fighting technique, so she wouldn't underestimate Gu An's skills.

Perhaps this cultivation technique was passed down by the Sword Master Fudao!
Gu An began to introduce the Dao Yan Gong, and Ye Lan listened attentively.

After Gu An finished speaking, Ye Lan couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother, you possess so many medicinal herbs, yet your cultivation hasn't progressed much. Could it be because of the Dao Evolution Technique?"

Gu An nodded and said, "This is an unparalleled skill. I will only pass it on to you. You must not tell anyone else."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lan felt a surge of joy in her heart. She hesitated and asked, "Would cultivating the Dao Evolution Technique add to your burden?"

She understood that Gu An would continue to give her pills to help her cultivate, which would inevitably delay Gu An's cultivation.

Gu An laughed and said, "If you're worried, then don't practice. Wait until your time is up, while I, your senior brother, will live for several hundred more years. Then I'll take in a few junior sisters and enjoy the bliss of having multiple wives."

"No, I want to practice!" Ye Lan said, her eyes wide.

Gu An took out the Dao Yan Gong manual that he had already written and handed it to her.

After accepting the Dao Yan Gong, Ye Lan took out a black wooden box from her storage bag and said, "This is a gift I prepared for you. I originally wanted to give it to you after we finished talking, but I didn't expect you to give me the cultivation technique first. This makes it seem like my sentiment is not enough."

Gu An took the black wooden box and smiled, "Junior sister, what are you saying? Over the years, you've given me so many good things. You're definitely the best person to me."

The sixth-tier human-faced tree was given to her by Ye Lan. In addition, she would bring various herbs every time she visited Gu An.

Gu An had refused before, but Ye Lan persuaded him by promising to repay the kindness of the pills. If he refused again, he would seem heartless. So now the two of them exchange gifts and are both very happy.

Hearing Gu An's words, Ye Lan smiled and introduced, "This is a Dark Vine, its grade should be fifth level, but it's only a small section. It needs to be planted for one or two decades to fully recover. If cultivated, it can guard the house and protect the property, and can also block divine sense from spying." Gu An opened it and saw a piece of something that looked like charcoal, with weak vitality.

He wasn't disappointed. It was already quite good that Ye Lan's cultivation level had allowed her to obtain a limb. The previous human-faced tree was just a root, but now it was already regaining its vitality.

Then, Ye Lan continued to recount what she had heard about the cultivation world during this period.

Gu An listened attentively, thoroughly enjoying the conversation.

Recently, a group of mysterious cultivators known as the Thirteen Fiends of the Nine Netherworlds appeared in the cultivation world. They stormed into the Myriad Yin Sect, seized its most precious treasure, and left triumphantly, shocking the cultivation world with their strength.

In addition, there was another major event: the Ancient Hao Sect had cultivated the sacred beast Haolong, which greatly boosted the morale of the entire sect. People in all the states were talking about how the Ancient Hao Sect was about to rise to prominence.

The sacred beast was none other than Haolong, which Gu An had raised. He had previously investigated the Ancient Hao Sect and found that Haolong was very happy, being pampered and raised by the Ancient Hao Sect, so he had no worries.

Judging from Ye Lan's words, the cultivation world is relatively peaceful, and the Ephemeral Flower Sect has also calmed down and stopped fighting the demonic path. However, he knows that this is just the calm before the storm.

When the great cultivators of the main lineage of the Ephemeral Flower Sect arrive, the cultivation world will once again be engulfed in bloodshed!
……

In the dead of night, the spiritual energy in the Beihai Mountains began to sink, once again startling all living beings.

Gu An was meditating inside the barrier, enjoying the improvement of his cultivation. He spent three thousand years of his lifespan to raise his cultivation to the ninth level of the Mahayana Realm.

After a short while, he devoted another 50,000 years of his lifespan to alchemy.

He initially wanted to improve his alchemy skills on his own, but later realized that alchemy also requires talent.

The investment of 50,000 years of his lifespan allowed his alchemy skills to advance to the Taiqing Alchemy Dao, and his comprehension of alchemy also greatly improved.

A flood of memories rushed into his mind, and he became immersed in them.

The alchemy technique he cultivated was the basic alchemy technique of the Tai Xuan Sect. Alchemy techniques of different sects are still different, so different alchemy paths can be developed.

The Taiqing Dandao also contains a magical technique called Taiqing True Fire, which can help him refine pills better and can also be used to kill enemies.

That 50,000-year lifespan was well spent!

When Gu An woke up, he raised his right hand, and blue flames ignited on his fingers. The corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.

He looked at his attribute panel again, and saw that he still had 490,000 years of lifespan left. He was incredibly wealthy!

He closed the lifespan barrier, stood up, and prepared to leave.

His gaze suddenly fell on the mountain wall not far away.

The movement of the descending spiritual energy caused the weeds in front of the mountain wall to sway and bend. Upon closer inspection, there was a crack there, from which wisps of spiritual energy were seeping out. This spiritual energy was very special; it was not ordinary spiritual energy of the five elements.

He immediately walked over, came to the mountain wall, and probed it with his divine sense.

Soon, his divine sense detected the restriction.

It is very difficult to break through the cultivation level of those who are not at the Transcendent Realm.

He immediately understood the situation. Instead of forcibly breaking through the restriction, he used the Nine Extremes Yin Yang Body to transform into a demonic shadow, and then stepped into it using the Limitless Free Step.

He passed through layers of restrictions and arrived at an underground space.

This space is even larger than the Eight Views Cave. In the center is an underground lake, next to which is a grassland about 300 zhang long and 100 zhang wide, as well as a row of old trees.

Under one of the old trees sat a dilapidated wooden house.

His divine sense did not detect the aura of cultivators or demons, but there were many fish in the underground lake, including a giant fish that was two zhang long, which looked like some kind of spirit beast.

Gu An walked forward and passed a stone tablet with four large characters engraved on it.

Mysterious Heavenly Cave!

The spiritual energy here is abundant, even stronger than that of the Eight Views Cave Heaven. He cast a lifespan probe at the row of large trees.

They are all sixth-order spirit trees, named the Pure Heart Tree.

Not bad!

Gu An was suddenly delighted. If no one lived here, it could serve as a fourth medicine valley.

Xuan Valley, the Third Medicine Valley, and Tianya Valley are all medicine valleys under the noses of others. Gu An's treasures are all left in Bajing Cave Heaven, but Bajing Cave Heaven is only so big.

Gu An arrived at the wooden house, where there was a stone table covered with moss, and two books were placed on the table.

An unnamed book, a secret manual.

The Heaven-Slaying Divine Axe!

What a powerful name!

Gu An picked up the nameless book and began to read it.

This is a will, left behind by the master of the Xuantian Cave.

The manor lord's name is Ancestor Xuantian, and he is actually a cultivator in the Profound Heart Realm!
Gu An looked down, his brows furrowing slightly.

The Xuan Tian Ancestor was actually a Supreme Elder of the Tai Xuan Sect. After leaving the Tai Xuan Sect, he opened the Xuan Tian Cave Mansion here, intending to comprehend the Dao here. However, he suffered a qi deviation and became possessed by a demon. Before his death, he chose to leave the cave mansion and go to the demon lands beyond the Nine Dynasties.

The Heaven-Severing Divine Axe is the most powerful ultimate technique of the Xuan Tian Ancestor, inherited from the Holy Land and is one of the nine great inheritances of the Holy Land!
