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

Chapter 512 You are not worthy of the name An

Yang An's words were echoed by the others in the hall, who all spoke up to continue persuading Li Lingtian, hoping he could put aside his soft-heartedness and be ruthless, otherwise things could easily go wrong.

The more they agreed, the more unhappy Li Lingtian became.

A group of people surnamed Yang forced this person surnamed Li to kill someone surnamed Li.

He desperately wanted to curse, but he was no longer the impulsive young man he once was. He had to maintain his relationship with the Yang family, who had provided him with far too many resources for cultivation, and he couldn't bear to part with them.

The reason he wanted to become emperor was because he was unable to harness the power of the Taicang Dynasty for his own benefit.

No matter how talented one is, one still needs rare and precious materials and favorable opportunities to accelerate one's cultivation.

There are countless geniuses in the world, but he is not the brightest one.

Li Lingtian's expression grew increasingly grim. Yang An did not stop the others from trying to dissuade him; instead, he watched Li Lingtian with great interest.

His reason for coming was not simply to support Li Lingtian.

In the eyes of the Yang family, their seizure of the throne was a foregone conclusion. What they needed to do was suppress Li Lingtian and make the imperial power their own.

"When will the Yang family become the masters of the Taicang Dynasty? How come I, a man surnamed Yang, have no idea?"

A loud voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth, reaching the ears of everyone in the hall.

Before they could react, a figure gleaming with silver light appeared out of thin air beside Yang An.

Yang An glanced over, his pupils dilated suddenly, and the blade pressed against his throat, making his body feel as if it were in a cold cellar, his whole body ice-cold.

Standing beside Yang An was a man clad in silver armor. In his left hand, he held a three-pointed, double-edged sword, the blade held horizontally in front of him, the edge pressed against Yang An's throat. His posture was so casual that it sent an indescribable shock through everyone present.

Li Lingtian stared at Yang Jian, his eyes widening and his mouth opening unconsciously.

"It's you……"

Li Lingtian could not forget Yang Jian. The two had been together for many years, and he often sparred with Yang Jian, but he never won.

how many years.

He had imagined what it would be like to meet Yang Jian again, but he never thought it would be like this.

After a brief silence, a female cultivator from the Yang family couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"

The others took out their magical artifacts. Even though they were frightened by Yang Jian, they had no intention of running away, because this was the Yang family, and their descendants were outside. They could not escape.

Yang An looked at Yang Jian and broke out in a cold sweat. He was locked onto by Yang Jian's killing intent, and his entire body's magic power was frozen, making it impossible for him to mobilize. He couldn't see through Yang Jian's cultivation level at all.

But one thing is certain: he is no match for this person!

Yang Jian glanced at Yang An and said, "Considering your kinship with Li Lingtian, put away your delusions."

His gaze followed Li Lingtian, his eyes indifferent, and he said, "Boy, no one can touch your father's throne, including you. Don't forget the ambition you told me about back then. How did you end up so vulgar?"

Upon hearing this, Li Lingtian blushed deeply but did not refute it.

Because he once told Yang Jian that he wanted to become the number one cultivator in the world, and that he wanted to pursue immortality, rather than becoming a prince or crown prince.

However, as his cultivation level increased, the resistance he felt grew stronger, forcing him to think about external things.

"Who exactly are you? The person you've kidnapped comes from the Human Peak. You'd better think twice!" another middle-aged cultivator gritted his teeth and shouted.

Yang Jian glanced at him, his eyes so cold that the man was terrified and instinctively backed away.

"Human Peak is indeed very powerful. Their peak master, Daoist Yongnian, is truly an unparalleled expert. I have discussed the Dao with him. By the way, I am Yang Jian, the Holy King of the Holy Court. Have you ever heard of me?"

Yang Jian's words caused everyone's expression to change drastically.

Holy King of the Holy Court!

The Yang family cultivators were so frightened that they all knelt down, their foreheads pressed to the ground, begging Yang Jian for forgiveness.

Li Lingtian stood there dumbfounded. Although he was puzzled as to why Yang Jian had become a Holy King, he knew one thing very well: in front of the Holy Court, the Human Peak was nothing at all!
Yang Jian's gaze shifted to Yang An, causing Yang An's heart to tremble.

“You are not worthy of the name An. From this day forward, you shall change your name,” Yang Jian said in an unquestionable tone.

Yang An's throat bobbed, and he subconsciously uttered a single word: "Good..." Seeing Yang Jian easily suppress the Yang family, Li Lingtian opened his mouth, feeling an overwhelming sense of defeat.

The gap between him and Yang Jian is widening!
……

The four seasons cycle through the world, and early autumn arrives once again.

In the woods outside the Wushi Dao Temple.

Gu An lay on a tree branch, dappled sunlight falling on his face as he looked at his attribute panel.

Name: Gu An

Lifespan: 4, 458/50, 802, ​​675, 392

[Physical Constitution: Primordial Limitless Body]

[Cultivation Level: Perfected Innate Golden Immortal Realm]

……

A lifespan of 50 billion years!

We're halfway there, with billions of years to go!
This was still before Gu An went on a killing spree; without causing any turmoil, his lifespan increased rapidly.

With such advantages, he naturally didn't need to venture out and risk his life like people in the mortal world.

That is why he must be even more careful and never be arrogant.

Under the tree, Tianqing and Tianbai were practicing swordsmanship. This was a set of swordsmanship combining two swords created for them by Gu An. The two girls were practicing with great enthusiasm. As for Tianyao'er, she was in seclusion.

"It's been a while since I've played Life Cycle, wanna try it out?"

Gu An suddenly had a whim. He felt that his understanding of the Great Dao had been somewhat sluggish lately and he needed new stimulation.

Reincarnation is the best way!

Even if there are risks, they won't immediately manifest in reality for him.

Let's start a game!
It's been many years since I last drove it!
It's time to open!
With a thought, Gu An immediately activated the life cycle.

You will consume ten million years of your lifespan to initiate a cycle of evolution.

[Start Connecting to the Great Road Rules]

[Begin the search for the cycle of reincarnation]

You have the following options; choose one.

【I. The Great Heaven and Earth】

Part Two: The Great World of the Heavenly Book

Part Three: The Dark World

The Big World?
Book of Heaven?

Gu An was drawn to the second option, but he felt as if this vast world was in a book. If so, he might encounter a terrifying being like the Heavenly Spirit God.

Forget it, let's not touch the Great World for now. Ten million years of lifespan is no small amount; he'll need to work hard for half a year.

Gu An's gaze fell upon the vast, dark world.

Since Yang Xian defeated the Black Emperor, Gu An has become less wary of him. This time, he can try to kill the Black Emperor again and do so personally!
Gu An made his choice, and then a series of prompts appeared before his eyes:

You have chosen to reincarnate into the dark world.

[Given that the fundamental rules of this world cannot conceal your innate talent, you will retain the ability to seize lifespan, but you will be unable to unlock certain stage-specific functions.]

[The cycle of evolution begins]

[In the first year, you were born in a town in the Western Regions. Shortly after your birth, the town was attacked by a demonic beast. Your parents died, and you were carried away by the beast. Fortunately, a cultivator came to your rescue, and he named you Hei Xuan.]
