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

Chapter 1130 Everything in Gu An's Eyes

While the disciples of Wushi were still encouraging each other, the figures of the Great Dao cultivators below had already reached an incredibly terrifying level. Their combined aura even startled the sage-like Ancestor Hongqian.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin could also sense the rapidly increasing aura behind him, but instead of being pleased, he became even more furious.

In his view, the Great Dao was distrusting him.

What upset him the most was that it was indeed true.

He stared intently at Gu An, but Gu An didn't look at him, which deeply agitated him.

At this moment, notifications kept popping up in front of Gu An's eyes, all of them were hate notifications. Ever since the Great Dao illuminated all the heavens, the notifications had never stopped.

He wasn't angry; instead, he seemed to be playing a joke on him.

He had to admit that his mindset had changed. Now that he had reached the final stage of the Ancient Dao, he would no longer regard any being within the Great Dao as an opponent, not even the Great Dao itself.

The reason he gave the Great Dao and all living beings this opportunity was not to test the disciples of Wushi, but because he wanted the Great Dao to understand how strong he was.

The ruthless Dao was currently behaving more violently than mortal beings, which Gu An disliked.

"Grandmaster, what are you waiting for?"

An Zizai looked up at Gu An and couldn't help but ask. As soon as he said this, the other Wushi disciples all turned to look.

Although more and more disciples of the Beginningless One appeared on the steps and chose to go up to fight against the Great Dao together with Gu An, they were insignificant compared to the number of guardians of the Great Dao. The combined momentum of the two sides had created a huge disparity.

Gu An did not answer, which made An Zizai even more uneasy.

At this moment, another figure appeared on the Creation Steps; it was none other than the Heavenly Emperor.

The appearance of the Heavenly Emperor attracted the attention of many people, especially the powerful beings from Chaos, who were very curious about the Heavenly Emperor's attitude towards Gu An.

Gu An also looked at the Heavenly Emperor, his eyes indifferent and without any change in expression.

The Heavenly Emperor looked at Gu An with equally complex feelings. In truth, this was their first real meeting. Before becoming saints, he had only seen Gu An's will.

After landing, the Heavenly Emperor did not hesitate. He stepped forward and walked upward. He was not forced to kneel down, and his attitude was clear.

He chose to follow Gu An!

"His Majesty……"

Li Xuanmiao looked at the Heavenly Emperor, his expression somewhat excited.

His lifelong pursuit was justice, which led him to become an immortal. After receiving guidance from the Great Dao, he did not believe in the Great Dao but still chose to believe in Gu An.

He doesn't believe in so-called divine will or so-called truth; he only believes what he sees.

Before he became an immortal, he encountered many calamities in his life. The one who saved them was never an immortal or a god, nor the Great Dao, but always Gu An. The Great Dao is the justice that the common people speak of, while Gu An is the justice that he sees.

Of course, he was also uneasy. If Gu An were to clash with the Great Dao and all living beings, the result would surely be tragic. But now that he saw the Heavenly Emperor was willing to follow Gu An, he felt much more at ease.

The justice he pursues is limited; the justice within the scope of the Way of Heaven is the justice he wants to pursue.

The Heavenly Emperor arrived below the disciples of Wushi. He stopped and turned to look down at the figures below. Many Heavenly Dao Immortals and Gods had chosen to oppose Gu An. When they saw the Heavenly Emperor, their expressions changed drastically, and they showed disbelief.

This included Emperor Hongyang.

Emperor Hongyang had never interacted with Gu An, so he chose to protect the Great Dao. He never imagined that his father would stand on the opposite side of the Great Dao.

The pursuit of immortality and the Dao—isn't it all about comprehending the Great Dao?

How can one contend with the Great Dao?
When Emperor Hongyang could not accept the reality before him, Xuanqing Xingjun and a group of meritorious immortals appeared, including Li Ya.

Xuanqing Xingjun looked up at Gu An, who was high above him, as if he were seeing Gu An for the first time, his eyes filled with anger, resentment and fear.

He regarded Gu An as the greatest reliance of the Heavenly Dao. Now, this greatest reliance has not only stood on the opposite side of the Heavenly Dao, but also wanted to oppress the entire Great Dao. He felt that his past self had been played for a fool.

Li Ya looked at Gu An, recalling the past. He couldn't be sure what kind of person Gu An was at the beginning, because judging from the difference in their cultivation levels, Gu An when they first met was definitely not in his true form, at least not in his youthful appearance.

A figure quickly swept past Li Ya and rushed upwards.

It was clearly a martial arts duel.

Before Li Ya could think further, he saw other people walk past him. He didn't recognize them, but their backs looked resolute.

Liu An strode up the stairs, his eyes filled with fervor as he looked at Gu An. He didn't have many moral considerations; the thought of following his master to fight against the entire Great Dao made his blood boil.

"Wei Ye, if you were still alive, you would definitely be excited too."

With these thoughts in mind, Liu An remained fearless despite the rising murderous aura behind him. Especially when he saw so many people willing to follow his master, he felt a sense of pride that he was not alone in his path.

Gu An's gaze was suddenly drawn to a figure, and his eyes underwent a subtle change.

Lu Qiuxian has arrived.

He was Lu Han's son in his reincarnation. The two did not continue their father-son relationship in this life, but Lu Qiuxian still came. Moreover, as soon as he appeared, he turned around and faced the guardian of the Great Dao.

Unlike the disciples of Wushi, who had all ascended a distance to stand on equal footing with the guardians of the Great Dao, Lu Qiuxian remained among them. When he turned around, countless eyes were focused on him, but he remained unmoved, one hand resting on the sword at his waist.

He looked down at the endless guardians of the Great Dao, his expression calm, but his heart was filled with surging emotions.

Is this all he sees...?

Lu Qiuxian thought to himself, watching the Great Dao Guardians struggling on their knees on the steps, he felt a subtle, indescribable emotion. Although the Great Dao Guardians were in a sorry state, their aura continued to grow stronger, becoming increasingly terrifying.

The void was silent, and the disciples of Wushi also quieted down, awaiting the arrival of the final battle.

A somber and tense atmosphere is spreading.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin was still struggling, and his knees were gradually leaving the steps, which made the cultivators of the Beginningless side focus their attention on him.

There was an empty area behind the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin, which indicates that the other guardians of the Great Dao are not on the same level as him.

They could also sense the power of the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin, especially the saints.

When they saw that the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin was about to rise, the saints frowned.

Sudden.

The Great Yin Ruler suddenly appeared before the Myriad Yin Demon Lord, and with his hand as a blade, he slashed down.

boom--

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin unleashed terrifying demonic energy, directly sending the Great Profound Yin Ruler flying.

"You scum, who do you think you are to dare lay a hand on me?"

The cold voice of the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin rang out, his killing intent almost solidified, causing the Great Profound Yin Sovereign's holy heart, which was in the mid-stage of the Primordial Chaos True Saint Realm, to tremble. Fear grew uncontrollably and swept over his holy body.

Almost simultaneously, countless guardians of the Great Dao felt a power that greatly reduced the pressure on them.

All the guardians of the Great Dao slowly rose to their feet, their faces showing excitement.

They were certain that as long as they could break free of their shackles, they had a chance to win, because the Great Way stood behind them, supporting them.

The Wushi faction felt uneasy and turned to look at Gu An, waiting for him to speak.

Gu An looked at Li Ya from afar. Their eyes met, and Li Ya's heart was also struggling.

His struggle wasn't about whether or not to become Gu An's enemy; he was struggling with how to resolve the conflict between Gu An and the Great Dao.

His birth originated from the Great Dao, his world was constructed by the Great Dao, and his cultivation was also bestowed by the Great Dao. Everything about him is inseparable from the Great Dao.

Devouring the Great Dao is more terrifying than destroying the world.

Junior Brother Gu is clearly not that kind of person, so why would the Great Dao judge him this way?

Just as Li Ya was locked in a battle of wits, a strong wind came from behind, blowing his white robes. He subconsciously turned his head and saw a bright light rush into his vision. Immediately afterward, he felt an unparalleled and vast power surge into his body.

He was deeply shocked and looked at his hands in disbelief.

Not only him, but other guardians of the Great Dao were also infused with such vast power, making them feel as if they were in a dream.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin stood up abruptly. After a brief moment of astonishment, he revealed a ferocious smile.

"Such power..."

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin looked at Gu An with a sinister grin, a smile that was incredibly cruel.

The cultivators who followed Gu An felt immense pressure, and even the Heavenly Emperor frowned at it; now it was their turn to be unable to move.

Lu Qiuxian, situated among the guardians of the Great Dao, was like a small boat in a raging storm, at risk of being swallowed up at any moment.

Clang——

Gu An drew his Qinghong sword from his waist, the sound of the blade being drawn breaking the silence, signaling that a great battle was about to break out.

“Ancestor Wushi, you have no chance of winning against the entire Great Dao. If you still care about Wushi, surrender and atone to the Great Dao. The Great Dao will forgive you!”

An old Taoist priest holding a whisk shouted loudly, his voice resounding through the void.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin moved almost instantly. A black light flashed across the Creation Staircase, and its terrifying aura nearly extinguished the cultivators from the Beginningless Realm above.

With a deafening roar, the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin, whose body was shrouded in demonic energy, was stopped.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin held a demonic blade, but was blocked by an invisible barrier. Rolling demonic energy rose up like an erupting wave of fire. The Heavenly Emperor stood in front of him, only three steps away.

Looking closely at the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin, the Heavenly Emperor remained expressionless, but inwardly he was filled with extreme fear.

What is the origin of this demon, that it is so powerful?

This aura has far surpassed that of the Dao Lord back then!

Just a moment ago, the Heavenly Emperor felt as if he had almost been annihilated, which means that the demon in front of him has the terrifying ability to kill saints.

If even the Heavenly Emperor was like this, let alone others, all the cultivators on Wushi's side were terrified by the sudden outburst of the Myriad Yin Demon Lord.

After being stopped, the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin's face turned grim again. He roared in his heart, commanding the Great Dao to grant him even greater power.

"I summoned you here not for an unprecedented battle, but to make it clear to the Great Dao that whether I devour the endless Great Dao is not decided by the Great Dao, but by myself."

Gu An's voice rang out, and as he spoke, enormous sword shadows appeared behind him, unfolding like folding fans, causing all living beings on the Creation Steps to tremble in fear. The immense pressure made it difficult for them to breathe.
