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

Chapter 639 The Battle of the Heavenly Army
Within the vast天地 (heaven and earth), countless silver-armored celestial soldiers were besieging a terrifying figure larger than any mountain in the world. This figure resembled a tortoise, its entire body shrouded in terrifying demonic energy, with more than a dozen dragons rampaging within it. Upon closer inspection, those dragons were all the tails of this mysterious demonic tortoise.

This demonic turtle was so enormous that the figures surrounding it were as small as dust, and any movement it made could cause a catastrophe that shook the heavens and the earth.

distance.

Zhang Buku, clad in silver armor, stood side by side with Xu You. Xu You was also wearing silver armor, but he looked awkward and lacked Zhang Buku's imposing presence.

Zhang Bukui stared at the battle in the distance, his eyes filled with fear.

The silver-armored celestial soldiers fighting at the front were no less powerful than the two of them, numbering over ten million, and came from different Great Thousand Worlds. So many powerful figures gathered together, yet they couldn't shake the demonic tortoise.

"This is the Chaos Demon. This demon is not the strongest. It is said that there are countless such demons in the Chaos. Only if we can subdue it will our Heavenly Army have a chance to be established," Xu You said, his tone full of emotion.

Zhang Bukui turned to look at him and asked in surprise, "With so many prepared heavenly soldiers, can we really become gods?"

Xu You rolled his eyes at him and said irritably, "Becoming a god isn't that easy. We only have a chance if we establish ourselves. If we're lucky enough to encounter a peerless genius, we can ride the wave of success. That's much better than you facing the test of the Heavenly Dao alone."

After listening, Zhang Bukui turned his gaze back to the chaotic demon in the distance.

He took a deep breath, leaped into the air, and threw himself into the battle. Xu You didn't linger either, following closely behind.

Looking around, there were still endless figures rushing towards the chaotic demons from all directions, and people were falling at any time, with blood and flesh scattered all over the vast land.

All those who participated in this battle were top geniuses or peerless experts from various worlds, but in front of the Chaos Demon, they appeared as insignificant as insects, and their spells and supernatural powers could not even dispel the demonic energy surrounding the Chaos Demon.

at the same time.

Above the layers of clouds, a towering figure overlooked everything. He too was clad in celestial silver armor, but his armor was even more imposing. Behind him stood two immortals in long robes, equally indifferent to the battle below.

As immortals and gods, they had witnessed countless battles like this. They had no sympathy for the fallen, because all who came were determined to die without regret.

The Heavenly God slowly spoke, "This batch of Heavenly Army soldiers doesn't have many promising talents. Even if they can survive this ordeal, it's unlikely they'll produce any great geniuses."

The two immortals behind him nodded silently, each holding a piece of jade in their hands, while their other hand was moving rapidly, as if they were writing something.

……

The news that Taiyi Immortal Lord had been suppressed by Gu An did not spread. At least within the Tianling Great World, apart from Gu An and An Xin, no one knew that Taiyi Immortal Lord had been there.

After Taiyi Immortal Lord's soul was cast into reincarnation, no major changes occurred in the Heavenly Spirit World.

It wasn't until the Heavenly Spirit God stepped out of the boundary gate that he stood before it, vaguely sensing something. His gaze towards the Heavenly Spirit Great World was filled with shock.

He could sense a trace of the aura left behind by Immortal Lord Taiyi.

Taiyi Immortal Lord came, but nothing happened in the Heavenly Spirit Great World. What does this mean?
His awe for Gu An deepened. He had guessed that Gu An possessed the great ability to contend with Taiyi Immortal Lord, but he never expected that this battle would end so quietly.

What does this mean?
There may be a huge gap between Taiyi Immortal Lord and Gu An!

Tianlingshen took a deep breath, a smile appearing on his face, feeling that everything was developing in a positive direction.

He returned to his previous meditation spot and continued his practice.

Sending Tianhao to the Misty Immortal Court filled him with many emotions. After many years, the Misty Immortal Court remained unfathomable, while his best friend had surpassed him, which filled him with fighting spirit.

It should be noted that his talent was recognized by the Heavenly Court. Before becoming a Heavenly Spirit God, his life was filled with cheers and praise.

As the Heavenly Spirit God closed his eyes, the gears of time in the human world began to speed up.

The same thing happens every day.

A blink of an eye.

Another ten thousand years have passed, the world has changed dramatically, and countless people have come and gone, but the faces that rule the heavens and earth have remained largely unchanged. In late spring of this year, Gu An stood atop the mountain, facing the wind.

Half an hour ago, he used the lifespan projection function in an attempt to enhance his Great Dao of Power.

For him now, expending 100 billion years of his lifespan is not too painful; after that, he still has more than 1.4 trillion years of lifespan remaining.

As the projection ended, a prompt appeared before his eyes. He couldn't help but close his eyes and begin to experience the Great Dao of Power.

The spiritual energy between heaven and earth suddenly stagnated, and the rules of the Great Dao began to fluctuate, making the life on this land feel oppressed.

This time, Gu An did not pass on his insights into the Great Dao within the Daoist temple. Instead, he deliberately chose a continent with a relatively backward cultivation culture to pass on his knowledge.

As Gu An comprehended the Dao, the power of the Great Dao began to surge towards this continent. Countless cultivators felt uneasy due to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but before long, they felt an indescribable sensation, which made them subconsciously begin to review the cultivation techniques they had mastered.

Soon, the continent fell into silence, and Gu An's influence continued to expand, extending towards the ocean and other continents.

for a long time.

Gu An finished his enlightenment, opened his eyes, and then disappeared from the spot.

After he left, figures streaked across the sky. These people had an air of otherworldly wisdom and seemed to be enlightened masters. They observed the mountains and rivers along the way, as if they were searching for something.

Gu An arrived at a city in the mortal realm. It was a city of ordinary people, with only a few cultivators who had concealed their cultivation levels, and no one knew about them.

He went into a bookstore and began browsing the store's collection.

His thoughts drifted to Zhang Bukui of the Taize World.

Zhang Buku suddenly disappeared for thousands of years, and even Gu An could not foresee the cause and effect of it. Gu An guessed that it was related to the Heavenly Court.

Fortunately, Zhang Bukui returned to the Taize Great World unharmed, so Gu An didn't think much of it.

Whenever Zhang Bukui and Xu You talked about the Heavenly Court, Gu An could neither hear nor deduce it. This was perhaps the reason why the Heavenly Court was so mysterious. Even those who had reached the Great Luo Dao Fruit Realm could not fathom the cause and effect of the Heavenly Court.

Although Zhang Bukui has returned, his spirits have clearly become low, and Gu An is hesitant about whether to give him some guidance.

Gu An could roughly guess that Zhang Bukui had probably suffered a setback in his journey to the Heavenly Court.

Nine times out of ten, they failed to compete with other outstanding talents for the Heavenly Immortal position, or they lost hope and were greatly discouraged.

Xu You, on the other hand, was unaffected. After returning to the Great World of Taize, he began to frolic in the mortal realm and stopped cultivating.

As Gu An pondered, he was soon drawn to the book in his hands.

When it comes to writing books, those written by ordinary people are more interesting and engaging, while those written by cultivators are too utilitarian and don't delve into the emotions between people.

"Sir, if you like this book, 'The Scent Thief of the Smoke Tower,' why not buy it? If you buy the whole set, I'll even give you character illustrations drawn by the original author himself," the bookstore owner said enthusiastically as he approached.

Gu An closed the book in his hand, put it back on the bookshelf, and turned to leave.

Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper's face showed displeasure.

This person looks decent enough, why do you only look and not spend money?
How stingy!
"Shopkeeper, bring out all the paintings you mentioned, I'll buy them."

Gu An's words brought a smile to the shopkeeper's face, dispelling the gloom and filling him with joy.

"Alright! Please wait a moment, sir!"
