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

Chapter 1131 The Great Ultimate Origin of the Art of Existence
As Gu An drew his sword, all living beings felt an incomparably vast pressure, a pressure that even surpassed the Great Dao.

Upon hearing Gu An's words, both those from the Wushi faction and the guardians of the Great Dao felt his overwhelming power.

So domineering!

Blood Prison Great Sage, Lu Xian, Wu Xie, and other warmongers were all filled with fervor.

Some of the disciples of Wushi were surprised, as it was the first time they had seen Gu An act so domineeringly.

Regardless of what others thought, Gu An continued to increase his pressure, and the sword shadows behind him continued to grow, as if they were about to pierce through the entire void plane.

Gu An carried the Qinghong Sword, but did not wield it. Instead, the sword shadows behind him began to rotate, their tips pointing diagonally at the guardians of the Great Dao on the Creation Staircase.

Pointing his sword at them from afar, the guardians of the Great Dao were all terrified, praying that the Great Dao would grant them even greater power.

Standing on the steps, Li Ya looked up at this scene and deeply felt Gu An's power, which shocked him.

What kind of spiritual practice must one undergo to become so powerful?
"Your Majesty, are you truly going to unleash a massacre? If you do, there will be no turning back!"

Xuanqing Xingjun shouted loudly, his tone anxious.

He could sense Gu An's killing intent. Once this supernatural power was unleashed, the long staircase would surely be stained red with blood, and overwhelming karma awaited Gu An.

Tianhao then appeared behind Li Ya. His gaze was drawn to the sword shadows blooming above, causing his eyes to widen and his mouth to open involuntarily.

Just then, the magnificent sword shadows behind Gu An moved, their sword light flashing, and thousands of sword energies flew out, sweeping past everyone on Wushi's side like a torrential rain, heading towards the guardian of the Great Dao.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin, standing at the forefront, suddenly widened his pupils. He raised his left hand, and a black cauldron emerged from his palm. A black hole floated above the cauldron, causing space to distort.

He tried to lift the cauldron forward, but unfortunately, the speed of those sword shadows far exceeded his reaction time.

The Heavenly Emperor standing before him felt his vision flash by the sword light. Before he could think, he saw the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Yin being annihilated by the vast sword intent, his flesh and blood turning into mist, and his demonic energy being scattered.

This sword intent was vast and mighty, like the long river of the Great Dao, but its aura far surpassed that of the Great Dao itself.

As they charged down the long staircase of creation, rows of Great Dao Guardians were engulfed. Those standing at the back of the Great Dao Guardians who witnessed this scene all changed their expressions drastically. They instinctively wanted to take flight, but their reaction speed was simply not up to the vast sword intent.

A single divine power swept by, abruptly silencing the clamor on the Creation Steps.

On the Wushi side, everyone stared blankly down, their hearts pounding as they gazed at the sword light below, absurd thoughts arising in their minds.

Could it be that the patriarch wiped out all the rebels with a single move?
This……

There were countless rebels below, most of whom possessed unfathomable cultivation levels; otherwise, they would not have dared to come here. Yet, even so, they were utterly powerless against the Primordial Ancestor.

They suddenly understood why their patriarch had sounded so arrogant; he truly possessed that ability.

However, an overwhelming power can always be unsettling.

Even Wushi's disciples couldn't help but wonder, if even the Great Dao couldn't resist the Patriarch, what would happen if the Patriarch harbored evil thoughts in the future?
Even if they respect Gu An, they will still have concerns. After all, people can't stay the same forever, and even the best-tempered person can occasionally lose control.

When the sword light dissipated, Wushi's side breathed a sigh of relief, because the guardians of the Great Dao were still there.

Countless guardians of the Great Dao stood on the Creation Steps, their faces filled with despair and their bodies trembling.

As the sword light completely dissipated, their bodies went limp, and they collapsed one after another on the steps, like waves crashing down, a truly magnificent sight.

All the peerless masters, unparalleled geniuses, and ancient immortals from different realms fell down, horrified to discover that their cultivation had vanished and their magical power had been drained.

"He... devoured our magic power..."

A female nun looked up and spoke in a trembling voice, her tone filled with fear and despair.

It took them so many years to get to where they are today. What they care about most is their own cultivation and spiritual attainment. They can feel that not only has their magical power disappeared, but even their Dao fruit and divine soul have been drained.

Even the saintly cultivation of saints was completely devoured, causing them to fall to the mortal realm in an instant. This was more painful for them than killing them.

"The Great Dao has not deceived us; this person is indeed capable of devouring..."

"It's over, no one can stop him now..."

"If he were to devour the Great Dao as well..."

"Damn it, why is he so powerful? Great Dao, please grant us even greater power!"

"This is the greatest calamity in history. We may have to sacrifice ourselves, but we hope to leave some hope for future generations."

The guardians of the Great Dao erupted in chaos, wailing and discussing amongst themselves. Some had already given up, while others were still trying to find a solution.

Standing above, those on the Wushi side felt equally heavy-hearted. They could clearly see the situation of the guardians of the Great Dao, and when they put themselves in their shoes, they felt the same despair.

Ji Xiaoyu turned her head and saw Gu An standing at the highest point, holding a sword with a cold expression. Under the illumination of the sword shadows behind him, his face was shrouded in darkness, like a supreme ruler, cold and ruthless.

"So, what exactly do you want to do?"

Ji Xiaoyu was puzzled. With Gu An's demonstrated abilities, killing these enemies would not be difficult at all. Why spare their lives and torture them?

Does he already have a strategy to deal with the Great Dao?
Although Ji Xiaoyu had not spent many years with Gu An, she knew him to some extent and believed that Gu An had ulterior motives for doing this.

"So, what makes you think you dare to face me?"

Gu An spoke, his voice drowning out the clamor on the Creation Staircase.

The vast difference in strength put unprecedented pressure on the guardians of the Great Dao, making them feel somewhat suffocated.

Looking at Gu An, Li Ya felt both relieved and worried.

Gu An did not kill the guardian of the Great Dao, which shows that he still has a trace of mercy in his heart. However, with his arrogance, will he be plotted against by the Great Dao?
After this series of events, Li Ya also came to his senses.

If the Great Dao were ruthless, how could things have come to this?
If the Great Dao has its own will, could it be a higher level of immortals or gods?

The celestial gods and immortals also claim to have created all living beings, but the living beings will not die for the gods and immortals for this reason.

So-called creation itself relies on other forces, and such a favor should not dictate the lives of ordinary people.

Compared to the unfathomable Gu An, Li Ya was more wary of the unknown will of the Great Dao.

The Dao Ancestor of Myriad Origins appeared on the Creation Steps. Not only him, but other beings of the Great Dao are also coming. All the newcomers are frightened by the scene on the Creation Steps. Although they do not know what happened before, they cannot help but feel a chill down their spines when they see the weak and desperate appearance of the beings around them.

Wan Yuan Dao Zu took a deep breath, turned to look at Gu An, and asked loudly, "Senior, could that terrifying power be you?"

At this moment, Gu An's aura erupted, reminding him of the dark forces that had severely injured him before, which was hard for him to accept.

Why did you hurt him, and then save him?

To play a trick on him?

At this moment, Dao Ancestor Wanyuan no longer cared about fear; even if he died, he wanted to die knowing why.

He cared more about his Dao Universes than his own life; he couldn't stand by and watch his Dao Universes be devoured by Gu An.

"It's me, and it's not me."

Gu An looked down at Dao Ancestor Wanyuan and answered expressionlessly.

"What do you mean?" Dao Ancestor Wanyuan asked, frowning.

"The power you are feeling now belongs to me, but the power you encountered before did not belong to me."

Gu An did not hide anything and revealed this point.

This was a fact he only realized when he had fully reached the final stage of the Ancient Origin Path.

During his breakthrough, he mistakenly believed that the dark power wandering the Great Dao belonged to him. In fact, that power belonged to another being who surpassed the Limitless Supreme Saint.

That being died during the breakthrough process, and his power could not be completely dissipated, so he wandered the endless Great Dao and was used by the Great Dao.

When each Origin Ancient Dao Final Realm is born, evil thoughts arise, and such power manifests. Gu An stopped it in time, so it did not devour the Dao Universe. In the past, there were indeed Dao Universes that were devoured, which means that his power did not affect the past.

All of this is a manifestation of the Great Dao.

If he is led astray into believing that he has committed sins, his defenses will crumble, and he will fall into darkness, truly becoming a darkness feared by all beings.

Upon hearing this, Dao Ancestor Wanyuan was pleasantly surprised. He cautiously asked, "Do you mean that, without our sight, there are other powerful beings secretly plotting everything?"

His voice was loud, deliberately so that all living beings could hear it.

Upon hearing these words, more and more guardians of the Great Dao regained their senses.

Thinking about it carefully, something really doesn't seem right. The Great Dao is acting so abnormally by making them oppose Wushi. Such behavior and emotions are not like the Great Dao at all, but more like a being with emotions and desires.

Standing among the immortals and gods, Tianhao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. Sure enough, his master was still his master, unchanged.

He will always remember the feeling of being saved by his master when he was in despair. At that time, he longed to become a person like his master. Even after regaining his memories of the emperor, he never forgot his wish.

Just then, a thunderous sound rang out from the depths of the void, startling countless creatures who turned to look. They saw a blood-red crack appear in the darkness, even larger and more terrifying than the Creation Steps beneath their feet.

Within that blood-red crack, an eye opened—an incomparably cold eye, its golden pupil seemingly holding countless stars. Its sheer size made even a saint feel oppressed and terrified.

This eye seemed to come from beyond the Great Dao, peering into everything within it. "What is that…?"

A celestial being muttered to himself, feeling a chill run down his spine just from meeting that eye.

Even from afar, Dao Ancestor Wanyuan was equally terrified.

"Yes...that's the feeling...it's him..."

The Dao Ancestor of Myriad Origins muttered to himself, his body trembling, as if the dispelled curse power had returned to his body.

Gu An turned his head to look, but he wasn't surprised.

Under his gaze, a figure emerged from the depths of that eye's pupil. It was a white-haired man draped in a black robe, the bottom of which was torn, like a vengeful ghost emerging from the abyss.

Behind the white-haired man, golden chains connected him to the giant eye behind him.

"You're really tough to deal with, forcing me to show myself."

The white-haired man spoke slowly, then raised his chin, revealing a cold face and eyes filled with extreme killing intent.

Everyone found his appearance absurd.

Could he be the will of the Great Dao?
If that's the case, wouldn't all living beings be being played by the Great Dao?
The Heavenly Emperor looked at the white-haired man, frowning deeply. He felt a strange sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

Gu An did not answer the white-haired man, and frowned as well.

"I am very curious, where exactly did you break through? How were you able to suppress the desires in your heart? You are already so powerful, why are you still obsessed with weak creatures? Why do you still keep these meaningless creations?"

The white-haired man continued to ask, and the golden chains behind him began to dissipate. An aura far surpassing that of a saint erupted, even surpassing that of Gu An, causing all the living beings on the Creation Staircase to feel terrified.

Unfortunately, Gu An still did not answer him.

The white-haired man revealed a smile, a ferocious one, and asked in a cold voice, "What? Are you also puzzled by my power? Many years ago, I had already surpassed the Great Dao and reached the supreme Origin Ancient Dao Final Realm. It's just that I fell into the trap of the Great Dao and have been mired in it for so long."

Gu An looked up and met his gaze, then said, "No, I'm not confused. I'm just thinking about how to end things with you, which will be a good opportunity to test what I've learned in this life."

As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of eyes appeared behind Gu An, no less powerful than the Eye of the Great Dao. They were none other than the Eye of Reversal of the Void. As soon as these eyes appeared, all the living beings on the Creation Staircase were frozen in place, only able to watch the battle in a daze.

Upon hearing this, the white-haired man's face turned angry, feeling that he had been humiliated.

"Junior, do you know who you're talking to?"

The white-haired man spoke in a deep voice, and the golden chains behind him completely disappeared. The Eye of the Great Dao then opened wide, causing all living beings to feel their vision trembling and distorting, leaving them bewildered.

"Fine, then I'll use my self-created divine power. This is my first time using it, so it's your honor!"

Gu An's voice rang out again, and an even more dazzling light enveloped the Creation Staircase, causing countless beings to glance at it, only able to see Gu An's blurry figure standing in the bright light out of the corner of their eyes.

Gu An raised his Qinghong Sword and pointed it at the white-haired man. In an instant, figures appeared around him, each with a different posture and a different aura.

The Heavenly Emperor's pupils dilated as he saw the figures of Ji and Gu Xuanyou.

At that moment, he suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out that both Ji and Gu Xuanyou are Gu An!
Fairy Yaoxuan stood among the disciples of Wushi. She saw the figure of the Eternal Emperor. She was not surprised, but smiled.

"This is the Great Ultimate Origin Existence Technique!"

Gu An's voice was so cold, and those six words pierced the hearts of all living beings. Immediately afterward, a bright light filled the vision of all living beings, causing their consciousness to go blank.

……

Under the sunlight, Gu An, dressed as a swordsman, walked through the mountains and fields with his sword in his arms, followed by a man who was also covered in dust.

Zhang Buku wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked up at Gu An in front of him, and said, "Uncle-Master Gu, could you slow down a bit, or could you lift the restriction on my cultivation?"

Without turning his head, Gu An asked in return, "What, you want to give up?"

Zhang Buku said helplessly, "After being a saint for so long, it's really torturous to be a mortal again. Forget it, I can't give up. Can you tell me about the final battle before the Great Chaos Era? What kind of divine power was the Great Origin Existence Technique you used? What was the fate of that Great Dao Will?"

He became immediately excited when the matter was mentioned.

Even though countless years have passed, that great battle still excites him.

He had just appeared on the Creation Staircase when he saw Gu An summon clones, stepping on the light of the Dao to attack the will of the Great Dao. He had no idea what happened after that.

After that battle, the Great Dao returned to peace, the barriers that blocked the Dao universe dissolved, and the endless Great Dao ushered in new changes.

With Wushi's status in the Heavenly Dao restored, no Dao lineage dared to cause trouble for Wushi anymore, and powerful beings from other Dao universes dared not come.

The question of whether the Great Dao has a will is also widely discussed in all realms of the heavens.

After that battle, Master Wushi faded from the world's view, and even his disciples never saw him again. The second-generation disciples also told others that Master Wushi had gone to live a carefree life.

Ten thousand years ago, Gu An came to Zhang Bukui and asked him if he wanted to go to the human world for training. To his delight, Zhang Bukui immediately agreed without hesitation.

And so, his cultivation was sealed by Gu An, and he came to the mortal world to become a chivalrous knight, upholding justice and traveling the world. At first, he was quite happy, but as time went on, he also felt bored and even tormented.

Aside from his immortality, he had no cultivation whatsoever, and his strength and energy were also limited.

"The Great Ultimate Origin Technique? It's complicated. Once it's used, it allows the enemy to relive the experience of being tortured by me endlessly."

Gu An answered casually, with one hand on the Qinghong sword at his waist and the other holding a wine gourd. After speaking, he took a sip.

Zhang Bukui asked, "Then is he dead?"

"I will die, but not now."

This answer confused Zhang Bukui even more, and he couldn't help but ask, "Then where is he now?"

Gu An smiled and said, "Didn't I give you a piece of jade?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Bukui quickly took off the jade pendant from his belt and held it up to his eyes.

"Could it be inside this jade?" Zhang Buku asked cautiously.

That's true. How could the will of the Great Dao be destroyed? After all, the Great Dao still exists.

Gu An stopped and turned to look at him, asking, "Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Zhang Bukui nodded; he really wanted to see it.

Gu An's lips curled up, his gaze hardened, and Zhang Bukui immediately felt his magical power restored, even his senses returned to those of a saint, and a vast amount of information surged into him from within and without heaven and earth.

"Oh, Li Ya has just become a saint and he's already giving a sermon. He's really eager to show off."

Zhang Buku raised an eyebrow and smiled, then looked down at the jade pendant in his hand. He probed it with his holy sense, and then froze, his eyes becoming vacant.

Gu An walked to a tree next to him and sat down, looking up at the sky. In his eyes, the Great Dao was constantly extending, and new creations were beginning to appear.

"Interesting. It turns out that the Great Dao itself is not a unique and unparalleled great destiny."

Gu An muttered to himself. He saw some powerful figures, who, like him, were invincible beings in their respective places, exploring the unknown.

After a while.

Zhang Buku woke up with a start, his hand holding the jade pendant trembling. He turned to look at Gu An and asked in a trembling voice, "Uncle Gu, I saw you and your avatar constantly using different supernatural powers against the Great Dao Will. The Great Dao Will was destroyed and reborn. It has already collapsed."

Gu An smiled but didn't reply.

Zhang Bukui sat down on the spot, took a deep breath, and asked curiously, "I've discovered that your magical power is not from the Great Dao. Could this be the power that transcends the Great Dao? What realm is that?"

Gu An put down the wine gourd, clapped his hands, and replied, "This is the realm of beginningless formlessness."

"The realm of beginningless and formless?"

Zhang Bukui muttered it over and over again. For some reason, upon hearing the name of this place, he felt somewhat dazed.

He snapped out of his daze, shook his head, looked at Gu An, and asked, "By the way, Uncle-Master, how much longer will we be traveling?"

Gu An rested his head on his hands, leaned against the tree trunk, closed his eyes, and said, "I can leave once I meet someone."

"who?"

"A genius."

"Genius? In your eyes, who qualifies as a genius?"

"He can become stronger by consuming the lifespan of others."

"Ok?"
