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

Chapter 429 Long Qing's Fear

A breakthrough to Sainthood has occurred, and the God Emperor of Annihilation has descended!
Gu An once again deduced the general trend of the world and found that the future had become blurred and many things could not be calculated.

Most importantly, Gu An was unaware of the purpose of the God Emperor of Annihilation's visit to the Heavenly Spirit Great World.

The Dragon War was far removed from his time, and even the War Court he founded had become an ancient legend. The God Emperor of Annihilation would only be stronger than he was then, so how could he not be wary?
Even if this God Emperor of Annihilation only possessed the aura of a Free Immortal, Gu An believed that his true form was an extremely troublesome existence.

Under Gu An's watchful gaze, the meteorite, imbued with the aura of the Annihilation God Emperor, rapidly approached the Heavenly Spirit Great World.

The powerful beings within the Heavenly Spirit Great World were also disturbed by the Annihilation God Emperor, and they all used their divine senses and divine awareness to explore, but none of them dared to stop the Annihilation God Emperor.

Within the Holy Court's Holy Domain, vast heavenly lightning covered tens of millions of miles of sky. The Holy Minister, caught in the lightning tribulation, looked up and revealed a look of fear in his eyes.

He knew that his tribulation would cause trouble, but he never expected to attract such a powerful being!

The aura of the Annihilation God Emperor reminded him of the previous Immortal King. He cursed the heavens for their injustice. Since things had come to this, he could only grit his teeth and break through.

Once the tribulation begins, there is no turning back; you either die or successfully overcome it!

He broke through with the help of the Holy Court's fortune. He couldn't afford to lose, because if he failed, the entire Holy Court would suffer a severe blow, as the fortune was connected to every living being in the Holy Court.

One after another, grand formations protected the Holy Image, dazzling in their brilliance and radiating boundless pressure, contending with the might of Heaven and causing the rules of Heaven and Earth to scramble. This also caused natural disasters to erupt in the mountains, rivers, and oceans surrounding the Holy Court.

Under the watchful gaze of the Holy Minister, a meteor streaked across the sky, its brilliance undiminished by the thunderous roar.

At this moment, not only the Holy Minister saw the shooting star, but also the great cultivators and demons from all sides of the world.

Inside Ye Mansion.

Ye Lan also saw the shooting star streaking across the sky, and for some reason, seeing that shooting star made her heart flutter inexplicably.

She couldn't help but look at Gu An and asked, "Did you see the shooting star just now?"

Gu An nodded and asked, "Did you make a wish?"

Ye Lan rolled her eyes at him, a look of worry on her face, and said, "For a moment just now, I was inexplicably afraid. Could it be that another extraterrestrial demon has descended?"

Gu An chuckled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? Has the Tai Xuan Sect ever encountered a calamity? I've always felt that things are peaceful. The danger lies in the overseas world."

“We can’t think like that. We can’t always put our hopes on others. The Sword Master Fudao will leave eventually,” Ye Lan said, shaking her head.

Gu An comforted him, "I am the Sword Master of the Dao, don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lan was immediately delighted and said, "Really? Then, senior, can you teach me supernatural powers?"

"It's not impossible, just say something nice."

"Want to hear something nice?"

Ye Lan smiled charmingly at Gu An, then got up and walked towards him.

Gu An quickly raised his hand and said, "I was just kidding."

"Hmph, I took it seriously!"

……

Rumbling--

The meteorite, wreathed in raging flames, shattered the sea of ​​clouds and crashed into the mountains with terrifying force, instantly crushing mountains and forests within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. A burst of intense light erupted, and billowing dust rose into the air, like a giant wall of dust pushing into the distance, destroying everything in its path.

The earth shook violently, as if it were the end of the world.

As the impact spread to the horizon, a terrifying wave of flames erupted from the center of the bombing, seemingly about to shatter the sky.

This force from outer space ravaged everything on Earth, showing no mercy and being extremely cruel.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

The roar of the heavens and earth disappeared, but the earth was still churning with billowing dust, though without its previous intensity.

A figure emerged from the dust and mist. He was dressed in a black robe, beneath which he wore black scale armor that gleamed with a cold light. On his head was a ferocious helmet with two knife-like horns pointing to the sky. Beneath the helmet was no face, but pitch black, as silent as a black hole.

With each step he took, the pebbles beneath his feet turned to dust, and magma patterns appeared on the ground, which was quite terrifying.

He stopped and looked up. It was still pitch black under the helmet, with no eyes. He didn't know what he was looking at or feeling.

He shifted his left foot to the side, and the dust in the world was suddenly dispersed, revealing the scarred and shocking landscape. He was in a huge pit, more than a hundred miles in diameter. Outside the pit, the land was covered with rubble and fissures, desolate and barren.

Not only the dust on the ground, but even the sky suddenly became clear.

The God Emperor of Annihilation turned to look into the distance. He observed for a few breaths, then turned and walked away. With one step, his figure traversed tens of millions of miles.

This land was vast and boundless. He took five steps in a row, but still hadn't reached the edge of the continent.

He arrived at a cliff, where the ground was still trembling. Following his gaze, he saw a city collapsing below the cliff, with mortals wailing and crying out in utter misery.

The God Emperor of Annihilation remained silent for a moment, then suddenly waved his sleeve, and the earth returned to calm. Pieces of stone and wooden pillars rose up and flew into the distance. After doing all this, he disappeared into the cliff.

The cries from below the cliff abruptly ceased, and the entire world fell silent.

……

As evening fell, Gu An entered the Third Medicine Valley. He watched the God Emperor of Annihilation traveling on the other side of the world, but he couldn't yet discern the God Emperor of Annihilation's purpose.

The fact that the God Emperor of Annihilation did not head towards the Holy Court indicates that he was not attracted by the Heavenly Tribulation of the Holy Minister; rather, he seemed to be searching for something.

Perhaps it wasn't a coincidence; he feared that the Holy Minister's tribulation would affect what he wanted.

As soon as Gu An entered the Medicine Valley, Long Qing strode over, looking at him with a fawning expression and asking him what was wrong.

"Get out of here. If you can't understand it, it means the timing is wrong and your mindset is still not stable enough."

Gu An glared at Long Qing and said this.

Within the Tai Xuan Sect, many people believe that Gu An is the disciple of the Sword Master Fu Dao, but within the Third Medicine Valley, many disciples believe that Gu An is the Sword Master Fu Dao, including Long Qing.

Long Qing also confirmed this guess from Shen Xinzi. Shen Xinzi now treats Gu An with extreme respect, completely like a junior.

"How long do I have to wait? Why do I have to wait?" Long Qing asked indignantly.

Gu An suddenly thought of something.

Could the God Emperor of Annihilation have come looking for Long Qing?
Probably!

Gu An said with a stern face, "You already know that your constitution is special. Can't you guess that you may be burdened with great karma? If you don't calm down, you will be in great trouble. Even I can't protect you. The whole world may be buried with you."

His tone was harsh, which stunned Long Qing.

Following Gu An's words, Long Qing felt uneasy and panicked.

The reason he acted this way was that Gu An was influencing his emotions with his Daoist principles.

We have to scare this kid!

Without absolute certainty, Gu An dared not let Long Qing reveal his true identity.

The karma of the Dragon Clan is too great, and it is highly likely that it will attract the true form of the God Emperor of Annihilation and the current War Court.

Long Qing's expression shifted between light and dark. Gu An didn't continue to scare him, but instead brushed past him.

He had only walked a few steps when Anxin arrived, saying that some disciples were fighting and he needed to handle it.

Upon hearing the names of the fighters, Gu An understood why An Xin had sought him out.

Two geniuses!

Their talent in the valley is among the top, and even before they have completed their apprenticeship, they have already been recruited by great cultivators and aristocratic families.

Geniuses are often prone to arrogance, and arrogance inevitably leads to conflict when they meet.

Gu An followed An Xin, not feeling a headache, his thoughts still on the God Emperor of Annihilation.

The setting sun was like blood, but hanging in the sky above the Third Medicine Valley, it was not desolate; it was still full of life.

……

The Holy Minister's tribulation ultimately triggered a great war, with the Immortal Dynasty, the Mysterious Netherworld Divine Dynasty, the Heavenly Demon Sect, and a few other forces that had grudges against the Holy Court all besieging it.

The battle was so spectacular that Gu An couldn't help but watch.

Although the process was perilous and resulted in countless deaths and injuries, the Holy Court survived this ordeal, and ultimately the Holy Minister broke through to the next level and even fought a great battle with Emperor Yangxian.

Although the Holy Prime Minister was a civil official, his combat strength was quite formidable, and he was even able to withstand the Hengyang Immortal Emperor, which surprised Gu An.

Emperor Yangxian did not linger; otherwise, if he had joined forces with the Xuanyou Divine Dynasty and the Zizai Immortal of the Heavenly Demon Sect, he might have been able to kill the Holy Minister.

This great battle is over, but it has sown the seeds of even greater disasters for the future.

And so, the Heavenly Spirit Realm ushered in a brief period of peace.

Eight years have passed quickly.

On this day, Gu An brought An Xin and Blood Prison Great Sage to Tianya Valley. Lü Xian had actually returned, and he had come specifically to find Gu An.

Gu An finished picking the herbs before going to see Lü Xian.

Lu Xian pulled him into her cave dwelling. After activating the cave's protective barrier, he nervously asked, "Are you the Sword Master Fudao?"
