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

Chapter 120 The Sword Master's Prestige, Lu Lingjun's Speculation

Gu An entered the Xuan Valley and scanned the disciples' cultivation along the way. He saw Chu Jingfeng sitting under a tree with a wooden sword standing in front of him.

He suddenly became interested and turned to walk over.

"Brother Chu, what are you doing?" Gu An asked curiously.

Chu Jingfeng opened his eyes and replied, "I am contemplating my own swordsmanship and want to create a sword technique."

"Create a sword technique? That's amazing! And what's with the wooden sword? If you need a sword, just tell me!"

Gu An exclaimed in admiration, and then took out a precious sword from his storage bag.

Chu Jingfeng's storage bag had long been confiscated, and the spirit stones he earned from doing chores were kept in the house.

Faced with Gu An's gift of a sword, Chu Jingfeng shook his head and said, "No need. What I want to comprehend is pure swordsmanship, to understand the sword from the heart, rather than to understand the sword through the sword."

That sounds like a good idea.

Gu An sheathed his sword and smiled, "Then if you need anything, feel free to contact me anytime."

After saying that, he walked towards his attic.

Chu Jingfeng looked at Gu An's back and could tell that he was in a very good mood.

"Although he was weak, he was always happy."

As Chu Jingfeng watched Gu An's retreating figure, he silently thought to himself, a hint of envy rising in his heart.

He was born into a wealthy family, but due to the family's failure in the power struggle, he ended up as a prisoner. If he could choose, he would like to start as a menial disciple, so that he wouldn't have to bear too much burden.

Chu Jingfeng stopped thinking about it and continued to comprehend the sword.

After practicing the Dao Yan Gong, his cultivation level could not increase, and he was too lazy to practice other spells, so he prepared to focus on comprehending swordsmanship.

Just like Han Ming, the sword madman of the Great Yu Dynasty, once he comprehended the sword, he became unstoppable.

the other side.

Gu An returned to the attic, sat down at his desk, and brought up his attribute panel.

He gained over 300,000 years more in lifespan.

This also foreshadows that when he destroyed the Ephemeral Flower Tree, he killed thousands of Ephemeral Flower Sect practitioners.

Gu An suddenly understood why there were so many demonic cultivators. He tried his best to calm his emotions, maintain his true self, and not fall into the demonic path.

It's better to grow flowers and grass. The lifespan granted by a cultivator at the Profound Heart Realm is only equivalent to that of a fifth-grade medicinal herb.

For him, the benefits of killing enemies were not much different from those of harvesting medicinal herbs, and it would also bring potential trouble.

Gu An took out the Travelogue of the Green Knight to distract himself.

Soon, he became immersed in the story, experiencing the love and hate between the chivalrous hero and the beautiful woman.

at the same time.

In the dustless wasteland, a large number of cultivators traveled through the air. Some were arriving, while others were escorting the cultivators of the Ephemeral Flower Sect away.

On a cliff, Ji Hantian stood behind an old man in white robes, respectfully recounting the previous battle.

"That's how it is, Ancestor. Thanks to the Sword Venerable Fudao, who exactly is he, the Supreme Elder? Even a Grand Cultivator of the Profound Heart Realm is powerless against him." Ji Hantian asked, barely suppressing his excitement.

The Sword Master Fudao's move was a pleasant surprise to him, and it made him feel proud.

He now feels immense satisfaction when he thinks about the shocked expressions on the faces of the other religious leaders at the time.

The white-robed elder standing before him was none other than the newly returned Supreme Elder, Ancestor Xuanquan.

Ancestor Xuanquan fell silent, and his eyes closed as well.

Ji Hantian didn't disturb him, assuming that the Supreme Elder was pondering who the Sword Master of the Dao was.

Little did they know, Ancestor Xuanquan was filled with shock.

The Tai Xuan Sect doesn't have such a powerful Supreme Elder!
However, he had heard about the deeds of the Sword Master Fudao when he returned, which at least showed that the other party was loyal to the Taixuan Sect. He was most likely a member of the Taixuan Sect, just not a Supreme Elder.

He had encountered this situation overseas as well. Those extraordinary sects always produced extraordinary talents who stepped forward when the sect was in danger. This was called the great fortune of the sect.

Could it be that the Tai Xuan Sect also possesses such good fortune?
Ancestor Xuanquan slowly opened his eyes and said, "The Sword Venerable Fudao is hiding his identity because he does not want to be disturbed. The more he does so, the less we should try to find out his identity. We should even try to protect his information. However, his deeds must be widely publicized to enhance his sense of belonging to the Taixuan Sect. Otherwise, in the long run, he may leave the Taixuan Sect and feel that the Taixuan Sect is of no benefit to him and will only be a burden to him."

"Ancestor, that's what I think too. I've already sent a message to the sect leader, asking him to spread the word about it," Ji Hantian said with a smile.

The Tai Xuan Sect has survived another calamity. After the calamity, it will surely rise again. This has always been the rule since ancient times!
"You go ahead with your business. I'll go check out the entrance to the Nine Nether Path. Perhaps this path can become an opportunity for the Tai Xuan Sect."

After saying these words, Ancestor Xuanquan vanished from the spot.

Ji Hantian turned and left, intending to discuss with other sects how to deal with the Nine Nether Path.

……

As the year drew to a close, Gu An came to the outer city to find Wu Jue, and even bought fine wine and roast chicken.

Wu Jue was very happy to see him and pulled him into the house.

After closing the door, Wu Jue excitedly asked, "Brother Gu, what brings you here?"

This was the first time someone had taken the initiative to visit him, so how could he not be happy?
"Just looking at you, afraid you'd be bored," Gu An said with a smile. He actually wanted to see if the martial arts technique had yielded any further insights.

Unfortunately, no.

Gu An also wanted to witness the geniuses of the Tai Xuan Sect who continuously comprehended the Dao. As for himself, Dao comprehension was optional; he could afford to sacrifice his life for it anyway.

He pondered and sought enlightenment, partly out of boredom and partly to see if he could find a way to extend his lifespan to help those around him.

At present, enlightenment is extremely difficult and cannot be achieved simply through profound experiences and rich emotions.

Wu Jue placed the bowls and chopsticks on the table, while Gu An put down the wine and roast chicken. He looked around the room and found that nothing had changed.

Wu Jue's cultivation level has already increased from the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm when he finished his enlightenment to the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm. How long has it been?
It seems that natural talent is at a higher level than lifespan limit.

However, judging from his living environment, Wu Jue did not seek a new master.

"By the way, have you heard about the deeds of the Sword Master Fudao? He actually defeated the Tanhua Sect all by himself. It's unbelievable! The demon that even the great cultivators of the Nine Dynasties couldn't defeat was killed by him in two moves. He's much more powerful than Gu Yu from the Tai Xuan Immortal Venerable!"

Wu Jue poured wine for Gu An while laughing.

The achievements of the Sword Master Fudao have spread throughout the Taixuan Sect. Not to mention the martial arts manuals, even the menial disciples of the Third Medicine Valley and Xuan Valley are talking about it.

He went to Tianya Valley a few days ago, and Luo Hun actually got the news and asked him about it.

"Of course I've heard about him. He's really impressive. I wonder what he's like in person," Gu An said with a smile.

The two started talking about the Sword Master Fudao, drinking one cup after another, and soon finished the jar of wine.

Wu Jue pulled out a manual from his pocket and said, "Brother Gu, this is a boxing technique that I bought with all my savings. Take a look at it, memorize it, and practice it when you get back."

Gu An quickly refused, saying, "How can I do that? No way! I can't take advantage of you!"

“What do you mean by taking advantage? You’re my only friend, and learning more combat techniques can’t hurt. I’ve figured it out: the cultivation world can hardly remain peaceful for decades; there will always be a conflict between good and evil,” Wu Jue said seriously.

Upon hearing this, Gu An had no choice but to accept it, and he began to peruse the boxing manual.

Sunset Fist!
After flipping through it once, Gu An memorized everything and returned the manual to Wu Jue.

Wu Jue was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "So fast? You don't like it?"

Gu An replied, "I don't like fighting. This boxing style is too aggressive and not suitable for me."

Upon hearing this, Wu Jue smiled helplessly: "When cultivators start fighting, it's a matter of life and death, unless you stay in the Tai Xuan Sect for the rest of your life."

"Hey, I really want to stay here forever."

"alright."

Gu An didn't want to take advantage of him, so he took out a sword manual and said, "I have a sword manual here, would you like to take a look?"

"No need. Don't let my respect for Sword Master Fudao fool you; I don't like swords, or rather, I don't like fighting with magical weapons. I only believe in fists and feet," Wu Jue said, waving his hand as he raised his arm to show off his strength.

Gu An chuckled, then took out the manual for the Gale Shadowless Kick and asked, "What about this one?"

Wu Jue glanced at it and couldn't look away.

"That sounds amazing, it must be very valuable, right?"

"It's alright, take it. If you become a big shot in the Tai Xuan Sect in the future, don't forget your brother."

Hearing Gu An put it this way, Wu Jue no longer hesitated, picked up the manual, and began to carefully read it.

Gu An picked up his wine bowl and watched Wu Jue, who was engrossed in the game.

I wonder what he will look like a thousand years from now?
……

With the arrival of the Lunar New Year, the snow season has been extended this year, continuing even as the Spring Festival approaches.

The Third Medicine Valley became very lively. The pavilion area was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the disciples were all busy with their work, their faces full of smiles.

Gu An sat at the long table in the courtyard, watching his disciples busily working with a smile.

Having many people around is great; he doesn't have to worry about anything.

Gu An looked at Lu Lingjun, who was cutting paper. Among the female disciples, she looked very virtuous, gentle and charming, making it hard to imagine that she had the cultivation level of the ninth level of the Integration Realm.

Xiao Chuan walked over and sat down next to him, excitedly saying, "Senior brother, a statue of the Sword Master of Supporting the Dao is being built next to the Heaven-Mending Platform. It's so magnificent. You must see it next time you go."

He had already begun cultivating the Dao Yan Gong, but he was clearly not as enthusiastic as Chu Jingfeng and Lu Jiujia. He had recognized his own aptitude and was honestly enjoying life. Gu An could only respect this; he couldn't force someone to cultivate.

Besides, even if one practices this skill diligently, one will eventually die of old age; it's just a matter of delaying the process.

"Really? Then I definitely need to go take a look." Gu An raised an eyebrow and smiled.

He was satisfied with the attitude of the Tai Xuan Sect; at least they gave him face.

Xiao Chuan continued to recount the changes in the outer sect, when Gu An sensed Lü Baitian flying over.

Not long after, Lü Baitian landed.

Xiao Chuan immediately got up and left, not daring to disturb them.

"Let's go inside and chat." Lü Baitian said this and walked towards the attic on his own.

Lu Lingjun cast a glance at her, her heart filled with curiosity.

What exactly is Gu An's identity?
Why does this great cultivator at the ninth level of the Integration Realm always come to him?
Could it be that Gu An is hiding his cultivation level?
It's not as weak as it looks?
Lu Lingjun thought to herself, deciding to find an opportunity to talk to Xiao Chuan.

the other side.

After entering the room, Gu An closed the door. Lü Baitian then activated the protective barrier, sat down, and said, "I have a great opportunity. Do you want it?"

Thank you to Yundian Buyecheng for the 5863 Qidian coins, Guiyuanr for the 500 Qidian coins, I'm Really Not a Superman for the 100 Qidian coins, and Zhiqiu Dazizai for the 100 Qidian coins.
