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

Chapter 608 The Great Causal Stele, the Great Dao of Power

After spending a day talking with his master, Tianhao gained more knowledge and developed a greater expectation for cultivating immortality. Afterwards, he went to the Dao Court with great fighting spirit.

Decades later.

Tianhao's reputation spread to all the major hegemonic forces in the world. As long as cultivators were not in remote areas, they had all heard of his name.

In the grand gathering of all ages, he overpowered all the heroes under heaven and became the number one genius in history!

His extraordinary reputation spurred Tianhao to cultivate even harder. After returning from the Dao Court, every breakthrough he made caused a sensation throughout the world.

time flies.

Twenty thousand years have passed in a flash.

A new order has emerged in the human world. The Dao Court remains the most powerful sect, but many other powerful lineages have also emerged. If they were to unite, they would have the power to overthrow the Dao Court.

The self-righteous Taoist court never initiates wars against sects or dynasties, so the human world has always been at peace. This peace is only from the macro perspective of heaven and earth.

Within the Wushi Dao Temple, even the lowest-ranking cultivator has reached the Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal Realm, while Lu Xian, An Xin, Blood Prison Great Sage, and Tian Yao'er have already achieved the Carefree Primordial Immortal Realm.

As for Tianhao, he has reached the Mysterious Immortal Realm, and at the ninth level of cultivation. Any genius would pale in comparison to him. In addition, with the three Dao treasures bestowed upon him by Gu An, the Dao treasures are free and unhindered below the Immortal Realm, and no one can do anything to him.

Those three Dao treasures were three long spears, named Divine Punishment, Heavenly Punishment, and Immortal Punishment respectively, each containing different Dao powers.

The other disciples in the dojo had no objection to Gu An's favoritism towards Tian Hao. They were convinced of Tian Hao's talent, and even the Blood Prison Great Saint had to admit it.

Twenty thousand years have passed, and Tianhao has become someone they need to pursue.

Beneath the starry sky, atop a colossal mountain, sits a secluded palace.

Inside the palace, Ji Xiaoyu sat cross-legged on a jade platform, surrounded by wisps of gray energy, a manifestation of the power of the Great Dao.

A figure appeared in the hall; it was none other than the Sun and Moon Emperor.

The Sun and Moon Emperor bowed and looked up at Ji Xiaoyu, saying, "Your Majesty, Tian Hao, known as the number one genius in the world, has come to the Yin-Yang Immortal Realm. He has already entered our territory. He said he wants to find the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Flower. Judging from his posture, he is determined to get it. He holds three supreme treasures, each with power no less than that of the supreme treasures of heaven and earth. Our people cannot stop him."

His expression became incredibly complicated when Tianhao was mentioned.

As early as 20,000 years ago, he had heard that a peerless genius, unique in all time, was born in the central region of the Great World. He thought the rumors were exaggerated, but now that he had actually met Tianhao, he realized that the rumors were true and that he had even underestimated Tianhao.

Compared to Tianhao's talent for cultivation, this person's talent for combat is even more exaggerated.

Ji Xiaoyu slowly opened her eyes, looked down at the Sun and Moon Underworld Emperor, and asked, "You said before that he came from the Qiankun Sect. What is the background of this Qiankun Sect?"

The Sun and Moon Emperor replied, "It's strange that the Qiankun Sect, which has no peerless experts, has been able to nurture such powerful geniuses. By the way, I've heard that there are immortals in the forbidden areas of the Qiankun Sect, and that those immortals only protect the Qiankun Sect's homeland. I wonder if that's true."

Upon hearing this, a strange light flashed in Ji Xiaoyu's eyes.

She paused for a moment, then said, "Let him go forward and venture into other areas. There's no need to inform the other three emperors."

The Sun and Moon Emperor was surprised, but did not ask any further questions. He immediately accepted the order and left.

Ji Xiaoyu looked at the starry sky outside the hall and murmured to herself, "Is that you... Tianhao, Anhao, you really are amazing, you always manage to cultivate peerless geniuses."

She calculated with her fingers, her expression growing increasingly complicated.

Tianhao's cultivation speed was truly astonishing, making her feel that the peerless geniuses of the past were nothing compared to him.

If things continue like this, Tianhao will become the number one in the world in less than a million years.

Even if the Holy Emperor of yesteryear were alive today, he could only become a stepping stone for him.

Ji Xiaoyu took a deep breath, and her gaze towards the starry sky gradually became firm.

Perhaps, she really should take that step.

……

At dawn, Gu An was accompanying Shen Zhen to paint. The two were next to a waterfall, nestled against the mountains and beside the water, a beautiful scene.

Shen Zhen painted the figure of the Heavenly Spirit God subduing demons and monsters, while Gu An painted Ji Xiaoyu's cultivation.

Shen Zhen glanced at Gu An and snorted, "It seems you really miss your Third Miss. Why don't you go and look for her in the cycle of reincarnation?" Gu An replied, "She is not in the cycle of reincarnation."

Shen Zhen wasn't interested in Ji Xiaoyu, so when she heard him say that, she didn't press the matter. Instead, she asked, "Take a look at my painting. Should I capture your fairy-like figure?"

Her understanding of cause and effect was growing stronger and stronger. Even though her cultivation level was far lower than that of the Heavenly Spirit God, she was able to draw out the Heavenly Spirit God's past. Moreover, Gu An knew that the Heavenly Spirit God was completely unaware of this.

Gu An glanced at her painting and said, "Not bad. But if it's just about investigating his past, wouldn't that be too boring?"

"This process will help me gain a deeper understanding of the Great Dao, and it's not as boring as you think. I can see quite a lot," Shen Zhen said proudly.

In her mind, the Heavenly Spirit God was second only to Gu An. She couldn't draw Gu An, so she could only draw the Heavenly Spirit God.

Gu An said meaningfully, "Perhaps you should create a supernatural power, a supernatural power that only you can use."

"Magic?"

Shen Zhen seemed to be deep in thought.

Her cultivation level was also at the Heavenly Immortal level, even without much effort in her cultivation. As a result, she became increasingly confident and even believed that she would surpass Tianhao sooner or later.

Although Gu An didn't think she could catch up with Tian Hao, her future was indeed limitless.

This is not only due to Fairy Yaoxuan's power of cause and effect, but also to the Great Cause and Effect Stele used by the Emperor of Eternal Life.

The Great Causal Stele is located in the River of Causality, which is formed from the Great Dao. Since it can remain eternally within the Great Dao, the Great Causal Stele must be an unimaginable existence.

With the Eternal Emperor sacrificing himself, a portion of the power of the Great Causal Tablet was also transferred to Shen Zhen, and this power grew stronger as she lived longer.

Gu An could see through everyone's future, but Shen Zhen's future seemed to be getting shorter and shorter in his eyes. There was a force resolving her karma, which made him have even greater expectations for her.

While Shen Zhen was deep in thought, Gu An was also contemplating his own path.

He felt it was necessary to focus on developing the second major road.

With the help of the Great Dao Domination Technique, Gu An has made a preliminary glimpse into the Three Thousand Great Daos, but he only understands them and has not yet truly mastered them.

He wanted to master a supreme Dao, not as unfathomable as cause and effect, fate, and reincarnation, but simply pure power.

Just like the bright sun in the sky, it is righteous and majestic, with divine power.

The Three Thousand Great Daos is just a general term for the Great Daos. The exact number of Great Daos is actually undetermined, but Gu An has already glimpsed more than three thousand Great Daos.

He wanted to choose the most powerful path from among these paths.

Pure power!
After much deliberation, Gu An decided that he could choose the path of power.

The Great Way of Power is not the Way of Physical Strength, but rather the collective term for all power. The Great Way of Power is the development of manifestable power to its ultimate limit.

To prove the Dao with force means to prove the Dao with great power and great strength.

The Great Way of Power is omnipresent. Living beings possess strength and can cultivate magical power, demonic power, and other powers through cultivation because of the existence of the Great Way of Power.

Gu An immediately used the Life Projection technique and chose the Path of Power.

It still consumes a hundred billion years of lifespan, and prompts keep popping up in front of him.

But this time it's different!

He actually saw the Heavenly Spirit World.

Almost instantly, he sensed a slight change in the Heavenly Spirit World.

It seems there's an extra person.

Gu An did some quick calculations with his fingers, and his expression became even more peculiar.

He couldn't foresee the projection's body, but he did foresee that Tianhao would encounter a formidable opponent in the Yin-Yang Immortal Realm, the first time Tianhao had failed to defeat someone of the same realm.
