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

Chapter 265 It's either you die or I die.

Mysterious Body of Hegemony!

This was the first time Gu An had heard of Yang Jian's physique, which made him even more interested in the mysterious black figure.

This person should be the Great Completion Ancient Treasure Body that the Immortal Seeker mentioned!

The illusion remained a world of ice and snow, and the dark figure ahead appeared even more terrifying amidst the swirling snowflakes.

Yang Jian gritted his teeth and asked, "Who exactly are you, and why do you keep bothering me?"

Clearly, he had seen this figure in his hallucinations before.

Normally, he would be afraid, but now that his master was by his side, his courage surged and he felt only anger.

The dark figure stopped, opened a pair of cold eyes, and stared at Yang Jian, making his heart tremble.

"We are both treasure bodies, which are formed by the fortune of heaven and earth. Your overlord body is stronger than ordinary treasure bodies, which I like very much. A million years ago, I also consumed a Xuan Gang overlord body, which greatly increased my blood and qi. I still remember it fondly to this day." The black figure sighed, as if reminiscing about the past.

His words sent chills down Yang Jian's spine.

Does this guy want to eat him?

Gu An stepped forward and said, "Tell me your name, and let's see if you have left a name for yourself in this world."

The shadowy figure looked at Gu An and laughed, "My name is Tian Wuchang. Have you ever heard of me?"

Is the heavens unpredictable?
Gu An fell into thought, having never heard of this name before.

Tian Wuchang stared at Yang Jian and continued, "I will soon descend upon this mortal realm. I will leave you for last. After I have devoured the other treasure bodies, I will come looking for you. You will have nowhere to escape. Even if you escape to the heavens, I will still find you. Your only chance is to cultivate diligently, unleash the mysteries of the Xuan Gang Overlord Body, and make yourself stronger."

"You die, or I die!"

Yang Jian gritted his teeth. Although he was flustered, he didn't want to show weakness with his master by his side. He said in a deep voice, "Then come on, let me see what you're capable of!"

Tian Wuchang burst into laughter, then turned and disappeared into the vast snow.

The illusion formed by the power of cause and effect then shattered.

Yang Jian opened his eyes and saw his master standing in front of him.

Gu An helped him up and said, "He has already declared war on you, so he shouldn't bother you anymore. You can focus on your cultivation now."

Within the illusion, Gu An was unable to use his lifespan probe on Tian Wuchang.

However, the opponent's power of cause and effect did not make him feel invincible, so he remained calm.

Yang Jian asked worriedly, "Master, perhaps I should leave Medicine Valley, lest..."

"Nonsense! Focus on your cultivation. If you continue to spout nonsense, I'll cripple your cultivation!" Gu An said in a deep voice, interrupting him.

Yang Jian opened his mouth, but ultimately held back what he wanted to say.

He felt Tian Wuchang's power most deeply. He couldn't describe it. Although he believed that his master would not lose, he would never want to see his master get injured or get involved in even bigger trouble.

Gu An didn't say that he could easily control Tian Wuchang, after all, he didn't know how strong Tian Wuchang really was. He just wanted to put pressure on Yang Jian and see if he could make Yang Jian grow faster.

"He said he would look for other precious bodies first. Those bodies must be protected by powerful forces. You still have a lot of time to grow," Gu An comforted him.

"Everyone has their own tribulations and destiny. Only by constantly overcoming them can you break free from your shackles. The path of cultivation is inherently a path against the heavens. You must have a resilient and fearless heart."

Yang Jian took a deep breath, his face showing determination.

Yeah, why think so much?
there is always a solution to a problem!
As long as he cultivates with all his might, even if he dies, what regrets will he have?

He then continued practicing the Wuji Zizai Step.

The winter snow covered everything, and the vast expanse of heaven and earth blended into one color, making Gu An and Yang Jian, who were in the woods, appear so small.

As Gu An had guessed, Tian Wuchang did not come to find Yang Jian again, and Yang Jian was finally free from the torment of illusions.

As the Spring Festival of the new year arrived, Tai Xuan Sect remained bustling, unaffected by the maritime calamity.

That year, the Tai Xuan Sect began preparations for a new grand conference.

After the Spring Festival, Lü Baitian came to see Gu An to discuss the upcoming conference of the Tai Xuan Sect.

This time, the Tai Xuan Sect is preparing to hold a physical cultivation conference. Participants are not allowed to use spiritual power or magic weapons; the competition will be purely based on physical strength and techniques.

After the two finished talking, Lü Baitian started complaining again, this time about the matter of splitting up the clan.

The power of the branch sects is growing, and Lü Baitian can no longer interfere in the branch sect affairs. This is all the idea of ​​the Elders' Hall and the Zun Pavilion, which is clearly aimed at weakening his power.

Gu An simply listened without offering any opinion.

The Tai Xuan Sect will have internal strife at every stage. To be precise, this is true for any sect or region. As long as it does not harm the Tai Xuan Sect as a whole, Gu An is too lazy to care.

If Lü Baitian can't beat others within the rules, then it's simply because he's less skilled, and there's nothing more to say about it.

When the topic of branching into different clans came up, Lü Baitian brought up the Ji family again.

Since the Sword Master Fudao ventured into the Seven Star Spirit Realm, although the Seven Star Spirit Realm still exists, it is not as powerful as before, and it has established a friendly relationship with the Tai Xuan Sect. The Ji family has no choice but to win over the Tai Xuan Sect again.

Lu Baitian ignored the Ji family, but since the deputy sect leader Ji Hantian was still in office, Ji Hantian allowed the Ji family to settle in the branch sect and help build it up. The Ji family made an indispensable contribution to the branch sect's rapid development.

"Do you still remember Ji Xiaoyu, the third young lady of the Ji family?" Lu Baitian suddenly asked.

Gu An nodded, but Lu Baitianxia's words made his expression change drastically.

“Ji Xiaoyu died long ago in the Seven Star Spirit Realm, precisely on the day that Sword Venerable Fudao swept through the Seven Star Spirit Realm,” Lu Baitian sighed, while observing Gu An’s expression. Gu An’s face showed a variety of expressions, including shock, sorrow, and anger, but ultimately all of them faded into a somber mood.

He fell silent, then began to pour himself a drink.

Could it be that this kid likes Ji Xiaoyu?

Indeed, Gu An was able to enter the Tai Xuan Sect thanks to Ji Xiaoyu's arrangement, and in terms of appearance, Ji Xiaoyu is absolutely a rare beauty.

Lu Baitian looked at Gu An and thought to himself.

Gu An secretly praised himself for his performance, his acting skills had reached a new level, and he could even use his emotions to influence the other person.

The room fell silent.

a long time.

Lu Baitian said, "The old friend is gone. The path of cultivation is bound to involve such things. By the way, there is another matter, which is really strange."

"What is it?" Gu An looked up at him and asked.

Lu Baitian replied, "Another outstanding young woman has emerged from the Ji family, also named Ji Xiaoyu. If I hadn't seen that girl before, I would have really thought she was the same Ji Xiaoyu. Moreover, they were born into different Ji families, and her talent is even stronger than that of the previous Ji Xiaoyu."

Upon hearing this, Gu An couldn't help but ask curiously, "Both are named Ji Xiaoyu and have very strong talents. Could they be the same person, perhaps a reincarnation through possession?"

Lu Baitian shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be. The reason she is called Ji Xiaoyu is because she also has an innate Dao talisman in her body. The Ji family gave her the name in memory of the previous Ji Xiaoyu. Judging from the aura of the innate Dao talisman, it is not the same one."

"The Primordial Dao Talisman is formed from the cultivation of an ancient great cultivator before his death. It seems that the Ji family produced immortals in the past. It is not that the Primordial Dao Talisman chose the Ji family, but that the Ji family created the Primordial Dao Talisman."

His tone was full of emotion, and his eyes were unfocused, as if he were lost in thought.

Gu An sighed and didn't reply.

Seeing that he had no interest in continuing the conversation, Lü Baitian stopped bothering him and got up to leave.

Gu An finally smiled after Lü Baitian left the Third Medicine Valley.

He hummed a little tune and began to read.

Although Xuan Tianyi is not in the Tai Xuan Sect, his books are sent back from time to time.

The Chronicles of the Green Knight is still being updated!

Gu An likes authors like this who don't forget their roots.

If Xuan Tianyi writes for a thousand years, then he will read for a thousand years!

It's worth mentioning that Qingxia's Travels now focuses on overseas locations, which is why the book's sales are rapidly increasing, as the current disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect are increasingly yearning for the ocean.

……

Spring has passed and summer has arrived, another year of beautiful scenery has come.

Under the Xuanqing Tree, Gu An leaned against the trunk, stroking the white spirit mouse that was dozing beside him. He closed his eyes, as if he was pretending to sleep, but in reality, he was watching Xiao Chuan's life.

Xiao Chuan has settled down and started a family, living a relatively happy life in a city, a stark contrast to his personality and image in the Medicine Valley.

He already has the air of a head of the family.

Xiao Chuan had a son and a daughter, and hired many servants in the mansion. Seeing that he was doing well, Gu An was relieved.

Then, Gu An turned his gaze to the Great Crack in the Sea.

Looking out, the Great Sea Rift is extremely long, stretching across the ocean. Yet, one can always see the figures of cultivators and monsters around the rift. Cultivators and monsters always venture in, while living spirits or strange vengeful ghosts escape out, making it a truly spectacular sight.

It seemed calm on the surface, but the calm was oppressive, with a sense that a storm was brewing.

After watching for a while, Gu An stood up because he sensed someone was coming.

Suddenly, someone appeared on a cloud and quickly flew into the medicine valley.

It was Ji Hantian, the deputy sect leader, followed by a little girl dressed in exquisite and luxurious clothes.

Gu An quickly went to meet him, simultaneously casting a lifespan probe.

[Ji Xiaoyu (Qi Refining Realm Level 9): 11/240/9999]

Good heavens, its maximum lifespan is 9,999 years!

Ji Xiaoyu's maximum lifespan in her previous life was 8,900 years. After being reincarnated, she was able to increase her maximum lifespan. Is this considered cultivation through reincarnation?

When Ji Hantian saw Gu An, he smiled. After Gu An approached, he said, "I want you to take care of her for me. Her name is Ji Xiaoyu, and she comes from a branch of the Ji family."

After hearing this, Gu An pretended to be stunned and looked at the young Ji Xiaoyu.

Ji Xiaoyu was only eleven years old and not even up to Ji Hantian's elbow. Her face was calm, but her eyes revealed a sense of vicissitude, which reminded Gu An of Ji Xiaoyu's childhood in her previous life, when she was also so mature for her age.

Seeing Gu An's stunned expression, Ji Hantian explained, "She just happens to have this name. Lü Baitian should have mentioned it to you. Let her cultivate in your medicine valley, and I'll take her away later."

After saying that, Ji Hantian turned around, leaped into the air, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.

Gu An and Ji Xiaoyu stood on the grass, looking at each other in silence, the atmosphere subtle.

Just then, a figure appeared out of thin air in front of Ji Xiaoyu, squatted down, and carefully examined her. The newcomer was none other than the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord.
