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

Chapter 546 The Pinnacle of Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Emperor

"Who is he?"

Looking at the Dharma image encircling the golden dragon, Long Qing asked Long Jun.

Long Jun looked at the golden dragon image with a complicated expression and said, "He was the previous you, your ancestor. Like you, he was an orphan of the Long clan. I crossed the years to help him. He failed, but he left the bloodline of the Long clan, so there is still hope."

Long Qing was surprised to find that Long Jun had searched for other ancestors before, and it turned out that he was not the most special one.

"Can you tell me his story?" Long Qing asked. Every time he condensed a Dharma Image, he wanted to learn about the Dharma Image's life.

Although Long Jun lived in the distant past, he could see all the lives of his descendants.

This time, he did not hide anything either, and began to tell the life story of this member of the Long family.

Long Mang was born without parents or even servants left by his family to protect him. He was abandoned in a vast world and adopted by cultivators from a sect.

His early life was relatively peaceful until he awakened the bloodline of the Dragon Clan, which provoked the War Court.

His master vanished into thin air, his wife and children died tragically, and his fellow disciples were all slaughtered. If Long Jun hadn't intervened in time, the bloodline of the Long clan would have ended with Long Mang's generation.

After Long Jun rescued Long Mang, he began to teach him the secret techniques of the Long clan. During the cultivation process, Long Mang developed his own understanding of the Heavenly Dragon Great Dharma Form.

The golden dragon manifested by the Dragon Mang Dharma Form is a kind of will, which allows him to be more focused and stronger in battle.

Long Mang once brought Long Jun boundless hope, but unfortunately, Long Mang still died at the hands of the God Emperor of Annihilation, and his grandson was even possessed by the God Emperor of Annihilation.

"The God Emperor of Annihilation, it's the God Emperor of Annihilation again! What is his relationship with the War Court? Why does he always possess our bodies?"

Long Qing asked angrily, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Long Jun replied, "He has no direct relationship with Zhan Ting, but he covets the bloodline talent of the Long clan. Perhaps he has reached his limit and can no longer reach a higher level."

Long Qing took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and said, "I hope I will have the chance to kill him with my own hands in this lifetime!"

Long Jun remained silent and did not respond.

Afterwards, Long Qing closed his eyes and continued to cultivate the Heavenly Dragon Great Dharma Form.

Since his arrival in the Demon Realm, he has felt a sense of crisis. He relinquished his power in the Tai Xuan Sect and began to devote himself to comprehending the Heavenly Dragon Great Dharma Form.

After hearing about Long Mang's deeds, Long Qing became even more determined.

He is determined to master the Heavenly Dragon Great Dharma Form, he will destroy the War Court, he will kill the God Emperor of Annihilation, and he will settle the karma of the Dragon Clan!

After hearing Long Mang's story, Gu An, who was far away at the Mountain God Temple, stood up, said something to Xuanmiao Zhenren, and then disappeared from the rooftop.

Afterwards, Gu An spent half a day on Immortal Seeking Island before leisurely returning to the Beginningless Dojo.

The rampage caused by demons has made the atmosphere on Immortal Seeking Island even more tense, with the number of guards doubling to guard against any possible attack from evil spirits.

Gu An walked through the woods as if he were strolling leisurely, but in reality he was deducing the fate of heaven and earth.

His decisive battle with the Heavenly Spirit God is drawing ever closer.

Once the Demon Realm unleashes the Dao Fruit of Heaven and Earth, the nearly ten-thousand-year-long epochal transition will come to an end.

If Gu An doesn't intervene, the entire Tianling Great World will surely be reduced to ashes.

No matter how many great cultivators there are in the world, or how high the talent of geniuses is, they are all meaningless in front of the Heavenly Spirit God.

Gu An glanced at his attribute panel; his lifespan had reached over 86 billion years, giving him ample confidence. More than the Heavenly Spirit God, he was now curious about where the being who created the Heavenly Spirit Great World was hiding.

After the Demon Realm descended, the Heavenly Dao's fortune in the Heavenly Spirit Great World dissipated, and an ethereal fortune appeared, like the fortune of heaven and earth, but with an added vitality belonging to living beings.

The fact that the Heavenly Dao Golden Core and the Heavenly Dao Fruit are still there proves that the being who created the Heavenly Spirit Great World has not completely perished; he is simply waiting for the opportunity to be resurrected.

Whether the Heavenly Dao light layer that envelops the vast Heavenly Spirit Realm is protection or constraint will soon be revealed.

……

In the dead of night, dark clouds shrouded the sky, making it impossible for any living thing on earth to see a single star.

Nestled in a valley surrounded by mountains, Zhu Xi sat cross-legged by the lake, gazing absently at the shimmering surface.

The Taoist priest walked to her side, lifted his robe, and sat down to meditate.

"What? Are you scared?" Seeking Immortals looked at the lake and asked softly.

Zhu Xi replied, "Of course I'm afraid, but if faced with the annihilation of heaven and earth and the collapse of the universe, I would have no choice but to draw my sword against him."

The Immortal Seeker smiled and said, "The situation in this world is becoming increasingly chaotic. The War Court, the Mysterious Netherworld, the Demon Realm, and the Sword Dao River are all vying for power. The more chaotic it is, the better. He is too arrogant and thinks that his abilities are enough to suppress everything in the Great Thousand Worlds."

His tone carried a hint of sarcasm.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xi turned to look at him and asked, "Where exactly is the Heavenly Dao Fruit hidden, and when will it appear?"

She has made all the necessary preparations and is just waiting for the Dao Fruit of Heaven and Earth to appear.

"When it appears depends on you," the Seeking Immortals Taoist said leisurely.

"When this world gives birth to its own Xuan Yuan Free Immortal, the Dao Fruit of Heaven and Earth will appear. You can step into the Dao Treasure Free Immortal at any time. With the divine power I have taught you, even if you only briefly step into the Xuan Yuan Free Immortal, the Dao Fruit of Heaven and Earth will still appear."

"Whether it is the vast world or the small world, there is a limit to what it can bear. This broken world can only support one Xuan Yuan Zi Zai Immortal."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xi frowned, caught in a dilemma.

The Immortal Seeker continued, "Holy Heaven, do you know who is the pinnacle of the Heavenly Dao, the one who rules over the immortals and gods?"

"who is it?"

"Such beings are called Heavenly Emperors. To become a Heavenly Emperor, one must undergo 129,600 cycles of reincarnation in the mortal world. These cycles of reincarnation are different from the reincarnations you are familiar with. No matter how many times you reincarnate, you must become a savior once to be considered to have passed one cycle of reincarnation. To become a savior, one must wait for a time like the present one."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xi's eyes widened in surprise.

129,600 cycles of reincarnation in the mortal world...

Zhu Xi couldn't imagine how long those arduous years would have to endure.

The Seeking Immortals said in a thought-provoking tone, “The predicament you are facing now seems irreversible, but the Heavenly Emperor, who is high above, has to go through 120,000 such predicaments before he can attain enlightenment. Moreover, the predicament you are facing is far less than his, because you have someone to help you, while he does not. Furthermore, he must start from being a mortal and constantly break his own destiny in order to rule the Heavenly Dao.”

"Your destiny is unparalleled, and you have a heart that desires to become the strongest. But you must know that on the road to becoming the strongest, you must overcome all obstacles and forge ahead relentlessly."

Zhu Xi took a deep breath, her eyes gradually becoming resolute.

She didn't know how powerful the Heavenly Emperor was, but she knew she had to get past the Heavenly Spirit God first.

"Even if it means death, you have to fight, especially when you have no way out." The Immortal Seeker's tone was firm, as if he were speaking to himself.
