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

Chapter 157 Innate Supernatural Power

Persecution of me?
Gu An almost laughed.

Anyone who tries to persecute him is asking for trouble.

He possesses the ability to foresee enemies throughout his lifespan, and he can immediately detect any hostility directed at his true form.

At least for now, no one is showing any hostility.

Gu An was kind to people and few people were hostile to him. Apart from the Tai Xuan Sect, not many people knew him.

Facing Lü Baitian's gaze, Gu An frowned and pondered, "I can't say for sure. I've treated him quite well, but back then, when the Sword Sect was chasing him, I advised him to give up the Hate Heaven Divine Sword. Perhaps he harbors some resentment towards me."

Lu Baitian nodded and said, "It's good that he has complaints. At least you won't become his weakness. But you still have to pray that he doesn't hate you. Otherwise, if he grows stronger, you'll be in trouble."

Towards the end, his tone became playful.

Gu An shrugged and said, "I believe the Tai Xuan Sect will protect me. If I can still encounter trouble while staying here, then the Tai Xuan Sect has a serious problem."

"You brat, trying to mess with me, huh?"

"How could that be? I trust you, Sect Master, so please don't make fun of me. A lowly cultivator like me doesn't want to get involved in too much trouble. What about the Ephemeral Flower Sect, or the Heaven-Hating Divine Sword? It's best if they have nothing to do with me," Gu An said helplessly.

Seeing his expression, Lü Baitian suddenly felt ashamed and realized that he shouldn't have teased him.

He didn't have the cultivation level of the ninth level of the Integration Realm, so he must have been very flustered in the face of the threat of the Heaven-Hating Divine Sword, but he just pretended to be calm.

After thinking it over, Lü Baitian's expression turned serious, and he said, "As long as you stay within the Tai Xuan Sect, you'll be fine. At least within the Tai Xuan Sect, I'll guarantee your safety!"

Clearly, he was alluding to Gu An's trip to Tianya Valley.

Although Lü Baitian didn't know where Tianya Valley was, he already knew that Gu An left Xuan Valley every few days, so he didn't ask about it.

Lu Baitian began to talk about Li Xuandao.

The Taicang Dynasty launched a swift offensive, joining forces with the Dayu Dynasty to open up no fewer than five battlefields, and the neighboring dynasty was on the verge of collapse.

Lu Baitian did not like Li Xuandao, but he had to admit that Li Xuandao was very good at using people and could always find geniuses or good generals.

From Gu An's perspective, he hoped that Li Xuandao could unify the nine dynasties, as only after unification could they better resist the calamity of demons.

After unification, then establish order; peace and tranquility throughout the land is the right path!
Only a peaceful world can help him survive.

For cultivators at the bottom level, peace is also a good thing. They may have fewer opportunities, but how many cultivators at the bottom level can turn their lives around by taking advantage of such opportunities?

At least, the number of low-level cultivators who rise to power through chance is far less than the number who die in battle.

The two chatted for a long time, until evening, before Lü Baitian finally left.

Whether it was Gu An's imagination or not, he felt that Lü Baitian had lost the edge he had years ago.

……

Su Xing Cave Heaven.

Wearing a mask, Gu An appeared on the cliff. His divine sense swept across the area and he saw An Hao in a cave. Inside the cave was a pool filled with blood-red water. An Hao was practicing his martial arts in the pool, and his qi and blood were constantly increasing.

Si Yan'er stayed in the woods, practicing her footwork.

Having spent two years in this grotto-heaven, An Hao and Si Yan'er both received different inheritances, and their strength improved by leaps and bounds. It would probably take many more years for them to fully inherit the legacy of Su Xing Dao Ren, since Su Xing Dao Ren was a Mahayana Realm cultivator and left behind a vast legacy. Even though An Hao was exceptionally talented, he would still have to spend a lot of time absorbing it.

Gu An glanced at it and then went to pick the rare and precious herbs in the forest.

His presence was concealed, and he was not detected by the spirit beasts within the cave.

These Nascent Soul Realm spirit beasts were very gentle and had already become friends with An Hao and Gu An. However, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was best for Gu An to act discreetly.

Half an hour later, Gu An left, satisfied.

On this trip, he gained 50,000 years of lifespan.

No one planted any seeds in the Su Xing Cave Heaven, and Gu An didn't want to plant any here either, fearing that people from the Seven Star Spirit Realm would come knocking on his door. He could only patiently wait for the natural treasures of this cave heaven to grow on their own, so he didn't harvest much. Every time he went to a place, he would leave half of the natural treasures behind and let them produce seeds on their own.

He quickly arrived at Nianchu Cave.

One night last month, with Gu An's support, Tian Yao'er successfully passed her tribulation and entered the Core Formation Realm. Since then, she has been consolidating her cultivation.

After Gu An landed, he sensed that her demonic power had calmed down, and it seemed that she had consolidated her cultivation.

He deliberately made footsteps as he walked towards a garden.

Tian Yao'er pushed open the door and rushed to Gu An's side like a gust of wind. She hugged Gu An's left arm and said excitedly, "Master, my demon core has been completely condensed, and I have even comprehended a divine power!"

Feeling the softness on his left arm, Gu An thought to himself, "A demon is a demon. She looks very thin, but her figure is exaggerated."

He naturally withdrew his arm, took a few steps forward, then squatted down to pick herbs, asking at the same time, "What kind of supernatural power?"

Tian Yao'er came to his side, bent down, put her hands on her knees, and said with a grin, "A kind of transformation magic, I'm really powerful now."

As soon as she finished speaking, a demonic aura emanated from her, obscuring her figure.

Gu An turned his head and looked. The demonic aura dissipated, and Tian Yao'er had actually transformed into his image. Even her aura was very similar, and there was not a trace of demonic aura in her.

This surprised him. That's quite an ability!
Gu An tossed the picked herbs into his storage bag, stood up, and asked curiously, "Could you teach me this supernatural ability?"

Tian Yao'er shook her head and said, "I also want to, but I don't have the mental cultivation method or incantation. This supernatural power seems to be something I was born with, just like speaking. I can use it very easily, but I don't know exactly how to cultivate it."

She transformed back to her previous appearance, exuding demonic energy, and pressed herself against Gu An's mask.

Gu An took a step back, and Tian Yao'er, dressed in red, put her hands on her hips and said with a smug smile, "Master, how about it? Isn't my supernatural power amazing?"

Her bright eyes crinkled into crescent moons with laughter, making Gu An unable to resist reaching out to ruffle her hair, turning it into a mess.

After praising Tian Yao'er a few times, Gu An told her to continue her cultivation.

Gu An had finally arrived, but Tian Yao'er had no interest in cultivating, so she stood aside and kept watch, chattering incessantly about trivial things, such as which flower had grown crooked, or how she had bumped into a tree while practicing the Limitless Free Step.

She could only stay in Nianchu Cave and had no contact with demons on a daily basis. If it were Gu An, she wouldn't have so much to say.

Gu An didn't get impatient; instead, he listened attentively and chimed in from time to time, which made Tian Yao'er even happier.

for a long time.

Tian Yao'er followed Gu An to the stone table, where Gu An took out bottles of pills, all for cultivation, and instructed her on how to take them.

"Once you've mastered the Limitless Freedom Step, I can take you out for a stroll," Gu An said earnestly to Tian Yao'er.

Having stayed in Nianchu Cave for so many years, Tian Yao'er has never asked to go out for a stroll. She is also very serious about her herbs, and at least Gu An can't find any fault with her.

Gu An has accepted Tian Yao'er and no longer regards her as a demon slave.

Tian Yao'er wasn't surprised at all. Instead, she pouted and said, "The Boundless Free Step is too difficult to learn. I don't know how many years it will take me to master it."

“The Heavenly Phoenix Demon Mother didn’t become so powerful after only a few decades of cultivation. The strongest beings in this world endure long periods of solitude before they can do as they please,” Gu An said earnestly.

Tian Yao'er nodded and said, "I know, I will definitely work hard to cultivate!"

Gu An noticed that she had stopped talking about revenge, and he didn't know whether she kept it to herself or had given up on the idea.

He did not leave immediately, but sat down and began to explain the Innate Immortal Technique to Tian Yao'er.

Core formation is just the beginning; Tian Yao'er still has a long way to go.

If he could cultivate a peerless demon, Gu An would definitely feel a sense of accomplishment.

Tian Yao'er's maximum lifespan is 18,000 years, which means she will be the person who can accompany Gu An the longest.

Perhaps because he didn't want to be lonely in the future, Gu An's teaching of Tian Yao'er was no less than his teaching of An Hao.

……

Dark clouds covered the sky, the mountains were undulating, and as far as the eye could see, the flowers, grass and trees on the mountains were sparse, and most of the trees were withered and leafless.

Desolate, deathly silent.

Two figures walked through the mountains, one of whom was none other than Gu An's apprentice, Su Han.

Decades have passed, and Su Han has undergone a complete transformation, his temperament has changed drastically. He is dressed in black, carrying a bone sword on his back, with a red rope tied around his forehead and tied behind his head, casually binding his black hair. His eyebrows and eyes exude a murderous aura, and his gaze is indifferent.

Walking ahead of Su Han was a thin old man who kept turning back as he walked, bowing and smiling obsequiously.

"Young master, the habitat of the sacred beast Haolong is just ahead. Although this Haolong is not yet a hundred years old, it has a strange temper, so you must be careful," the thin old man warned.

Su Han gazed ahead, where a large mountain loomed in the darkness, its occasional roars filling the air with terror and dread.

He instructed, "Go and lure it away first, I'll be there shortly."

Upon hearing this, the frail old man's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "My cultivation level is probably..."

Su Han's eyes turned cold, which startled him so much that he trembled all over. He quickly agreed and flew forward, disappearing into the darkness.

Not long after, a dragon's roar came from ahead, shaking the heavens and the earth.

Su Han then took the bone sword off his back, and terrifying black energy emanated from his seven orifices, making him look as if he were possessed by a demon.

"How dare you trespass into the forbidden area of ​​the Ancient Hao Sect!"

A hoarse, furious shout rang out, and a burly man in a gray robe appeared out of thin air as he swept across the mountaintop and charged toward Su Han.

Su Han turned her back to him, did not turn around, and continued forward with her sword in hand.

At that moment, a ghostly figure appeared out of thin air behind him, raised its palm and waved, and terrifying ghostly energy condensed into a huge black wing.

The gray-robed man's expression changed drastically. He tried to defend himself with his own spiritual power, but he was still knocked away by the opponent.

"I advise you to pretend you can't see it, otherwise you'll die and your soul will perish, what a pity!" A cold female voice came from the mysterious ghost.

If Gu An were here, he would definitely recognize her voice.

The Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother!
