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

Chapter 514 Heavenly Court, God of Destruction
Gu An chose to join the Xuanqing Immortal Sect, hoping that Hei Xuan could walk the right path within the sect, as excessive killing was not a good thing.

[You choose to agree to join the Xuanqing Immortal Sect. The woman in white is very pleased and then introduces the Xuanqing Immortal Sect to you. During the conversation, you learn her name is Fairy Baixian. Under Fairy Baixian's guidance, you successfully join the Xuanqing Immortal Sect and officially enter the Xuanqing Great World.]

The Great World of Xuanqing?
Gu An seemed to be deep in thought. He knew that the Great Thousand Worlds was the name of a whole universe, and the Heavenly Spirit Great Heaven and Earth was the Great Thousand Worlds before it was shattered.

Not all worlds are as fragmented as the Heavenly Spirit World. Even Gu An, now, cannot judge how powerful a complete world is, because he has never witnessed it.

Notifications kept popping up before his eyes: Fairy Baixian introduced Hei Xuan to her master, making Hei Xuan her junior brother.

In the years that followed, Hei Xuan did not engage in battles again, but instead followed his master and Fairy Bai Xian to cultivate.

The more this was the case, the more uneasy Gu An became.

I have a feeling something bad is going to happen, and something big at that!
Hei Xuan cultivated at the Xuanqing Immortal Sect for over a hundred years, seemingly having forgotten his hatred for Luo Shenyuan.

At the age of 178, the Xuanqing Immortal Sect welcomed its Ten Thousand Year Dao Assembly, attracting various sects from across the land. You learned from Fairy Baixian that she admired a peerless genius known as the Ziwei Emperor. You secretly memorized this name and then inquired about the Ziwei Emperor everywhere. When the Ten Thousand Year Dao Assembly began, you arrived above the sea of ​​clouds and witnessed the Ziwei Emperor's splendor among the many disciples. This sight made you lose interest in watching the spectacle, and you returned to your cave to continue your seclusion.

Then came various cultivation tips.

Gu An couldn't help but wonder what kind of demeanor this Ziwei Emperor possessed, that Hei Xuan was so deeply affected by just one glance at him.

The Ziwei Emperor was named after the emperor, and Hei Xuan later became the Hei Xuan Emperor. Could it be because of him?

At the age of 214, Fairy Baixian finds you and says she is going out to gain experience and will not return for at least a hundred years. You are worried that something might happen to her and want to go with her, but Fairy Baixian tells you not to worry. Will you choose to insist on following Fairy Baixian?

In the past, Gu An would definitely have chosen no to avoid his reincarnated self falling into the trap of love.

But then he thought of Yang Xian burying his wife, and how the two had never been together.

Perhaps, simply stopping it isn't a good thing either.

Moreover, Hei Xuan's life in this life is quite miserable. He has no family, no friends, and even his master is dead.

Putting aside his prejudice against the Black Emperor, Gu An decided to truly treat the Black Emperor as himself and be equal to him.

Choose to follow!

[You choose to follow Fairy Bai Xian. Fairy Bai Xian stares at you, making you feel uneasy. Suddenly, she smiles and says, "Don't hold her back." Upon hearing this, you smile back. Looking at your senior sister, whose smile is as bright as the moon in the sky, you secretly vow to protect her for the rest of your life.]

At the age of 215, you followed Fairy Baixian to the sea. You stopped on a deserted island. Fairy Baixian prepared to gather flowers and herbs on the island, while you meditated and cultivated on the beach. Later, Fairy Baixian chose to stay on the island. She began to refine elixirs, and she would let you taste the elixirs she refined.

At the age of 217, you left the island and ventured into the ocean. You encountered a human ship surrounded by demonic beasts. You chose to intervene. You rarely encountered unclaimed demons and couldn't resist killing them. Afterwards, Fairy Baixian warned you not to cause too much bloodshed. Xuanqing Immortal Sect is not only an immortal sect for humans, but also for all living beings. In the eyes of the immortal sect, there is no distinction between races. You promise that there will be no next time.

Seeing Bai Xianxian advising Hei Xuan, Gu An felt that his choice was right.

Lifespan evolution can be used as an aid, and it can be used in many ways, as long as it doesn't develop a killing instinct.

He felt that Hei Xuan would not give up on lifespan evolution, but as long as he restrained himself, it would be a good thing.

Hei Xuan followed Fairy Bai Xian on her travels around the world, searching for treasures, going on adventures, rescuing demons and people, and exorcising evil spirits. The journey was full of excitement.

The two also encountered danger and were seriously injured, but fortunately they took care of each other and always managed to turn danger into safety. Fairy Baixian saved Hei Xuan, and Hei Xuan also saved her. In general, neither of them really held the other back.

At age 307, you unexpectedly stumble upon a treasure-hunting battle. One of the participants is none other than the Purple Emperor, whom Fairy Baixian admires. He single-handedly fights over a hundred powerful immortals, ultimately defeating them. Fairy Baixian is amazed, and even you have to admit that the Purple Emperor is truly powerful. After the battle, the Purple Emperor comes before you. He clearly recognizes Fairy Baixian and wants to invite her to his dojo. Fairy Baixian politely declines. The Purple Emperor then looks at you and extends an invitation. Will you choose to visit his dojo?

no!
"I'm not going!" Gu An made his choice directly. He was also a little annoyed with the Ziwei Emperor. Didn't he see Hei Xuan and Fairy Bai Xian walking together? Why did he have to interfere?

You chose not to visit Emperor Ziwei's dojo, and he didn't insist, leaving quickly. You turned to look at Fairy Baixian and asked her why you weren't going. Fairy Baixian looked at him and asked in return why you were going. You smiled at each other, everything understood without words.

At the age of 308, you came to the most majestic mountain on this land. Legend has it that there are immortals on the mountain, and you decided to go up the mountain to seek them out. As soon as you arrived, you discovered that you could not use your magic power and could only move forward on the mountain like ordinary people.

At the age of 309, after a year of travel, you finally arrived halfway up the mountain. You saw a courtyard where an old man was resting, holding a fan. You were surprised to find that this was the old Taoist priest who had tried to tell your fortune years ago. The old Taoist priest also recognized you and smiled, saying, "We've finally met." This made Fairy Baixian even more curious. When she learned that you had met in the mortal realm, Fairy Baixian felt a sense of awe towards the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest didn't say much, left two secret manuals, and went back to his house alone. You picked up the manuals from the ground and began to study them.

At the age of 320, after eleven years of cultivation, you finally mastered one of the supernatural powers. The old Taoist priest finally emerged from the house, praising you for having the destiny to walk the path of an emperor. However, you suppressed your true nature, which puzzled the White String Fairy, who had not yet mastered the supernatural power. After learning that you had an innate bloodlust in your bones, the White String Fairy fell silent. You were also caught in a dilemma: should you choose to keep your promise and not kill, or listen to the old Taoist priest and walk the path of an emperor?

The prompt ends here.

Gu An did not hesitate and chose to keep his promise and not kill.

Who would encourage someone to commit murder?

Something's not right with this old Taoist priest!

[You chose to keep your promise to Fairy Baixian, not to kill or walk the path to becoming an emperor, which made Fairy Baixian very happy. However, the old Taoist said that you would regret it one day. The old Taoist's gaze made you very uncomfortable, so you made up an excuse and took Fairy Baixian's leave.]

At the age of 321, you and Fairy Baixian discovered the legendary divine beast, the Heavenly Deer, in the Forbidden Demon Forest. You received a blessing from the Heavenly Deer, and your understanding was enhanced.

……

After being secretly cursed by the old Taoist priest, Gu An dared not let his guard down and carefully watched the prompts, fearing that Hei Xuan and Fairy Bai Xian might encounter misfortune.

Fortunately, they had many more adventures afterward, and when they were over five hundred years old, the two returned to the Xuanqing Immortal Sect and went into seclusion.

The next five hundred years passed even faster.

However, what Gu An feared still happened.

At the age of 1347, while in seclusion, you sensed a terrifying pressure. You immediately stepped out of your cave and found the world had darkened, with the dark clouds forming a vast, oppressive vortex. Soon after, you saw a pair of enormous eyes in the sea of ​​clouds, and then heard a majestic voice claiming to be the God of Destruction from the Heavenly Court. He declared that an anomaly had invaded this great world and it must be cleansed. As his words fell, the heavens and earth shook. You immediately went to find Fairy Bai Xian. You successfully found her and wanted to escape with her, but she insisted on staying with the Xuanqing Immortal Sect to the death. You were caught in a moral dilemma: should you stay and protect the Xuanqing Immortal Sect?

Heavenly Court, God of Destruction!

Gu An frowned as he watched. This God of Destruction was probably a terrifying existence just like the God of Heavenly Spirit. It seemed that the Heavenly Spirit Great World was shattered because of the God of Heavenly Spirit. How could the Xuanqing Immortal Sect withstand such a terrifying existence?

But if Hei Xuan escapes, how can we face the Xuanqing Immortal Sect?
That's it!

At worst, we'll die together; consider it a waste of millions of years of lifespan.

To face death with a loved one, even though life is short, is a profound experience.

Your choice to stay and protect the Xuanqing Immortal Sect deeply moved Fairy Baixian. As if struck by a thought, she pulled you away to a certain place. During the flight, you witnessed countless powerful cultivators of the Xuanqing Immortal Sect rushing towards the giant eye in the sky like moths to a flame, only to be annihilated one after another. These scenes made you feel so insignificant.

Led by Fairy Baixian, you find yourself in front of the cave where you first arrived in the Xuanqing Great World. Fairy Baixian explains that she recruited you into the immortal sect at first sight because her deceased father said that this cave possessed a destiny for immortality, and that an immortal who once saved the Xuanqing Immortal Sect emerged from this cave. She hopes you can return to your original world. You say you don't know how to go back, but then you see Fairy Baixian take out a jade pendant.

[You sensed something was wrong and tried to snatch the jade pendant, but Fairy Baixian forcibly pushed you into a cave. Fairy Baixian threw the jade pendant into the cave, and you felt a familiar yet ancient and powerful force behind you. You looked into the distance and saw Fairy Baixian standing at the cave entrance, gazing at you with a face full of reluctance.]
