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

Chapter 666 The Invincible Emperor Ancestor
This old man in black robes is the biggest backer behind the Invincible Emperor, known as the Invincible Emperor Ancestor. The Invincible Emperor is the title of every successor to the throne of the Invincible Emperor Clan. The Invincible Emperor Clan has had many Invincible Emperors.

To obtain the title of Invincible Emperor among one's peers is almost a sure sign of becoming a Great Dao Emperor. The reason behind this lies in the Immortal Emperor Eye. By obtaining the title of Invincible Emperor, one can inherit the Immortal Emperor Eye from the Invincible Emperor Ancestor.

Even the Undefeated Emperor Clan was unaware of the existence of the Immortal Emperor's Eye. The clansmen only knew that the Undefeated Emperor possessed a forbidden power that could not be exposed, and they would do anything to protect the Undefeated Emperor's secret, even if it meant their own destruction.

The Immortal Emperor's Eye of the Undefeated Ancestor was not involved in any larger karmic consequences. He merely witnessed the suppression of the Heavenly Stealing Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Stealing Emperor by the Heavenly Court, which made him afraid to reveal his Immortal Emperor's Eye.

However, the power of the Immortal Emperor's Eye was too great for him to relinquish. In the past years, he had lost a lot. In despair, he mastered the Immortal Emperor's Eye, thus creating the invincible imperial clan that was famous throughout the Primordial Imperial Domain.

Now he has reached the level of a Great Immortal of Wonderful Truth, with cultivation reaching the heavens and the earth. He remains hidden behind the scenes, watching the rise and fall of the human world with a smile.

He wouldn't have taken action if the Invincible Emperor and other elites of his clans hadn't been wiped out.

Knowing that the Invincible Emperor Ancestor had no connection with the Heavenly Court and even feared it, Gu An suddenly changed his mind.

Of course, the main reason is that the invincible emperor only has hundreds of billions of years of life left. Killing him would mean gaining tens of billions of years of life.

For Gu An now, a lifespan of hundreds of billions of years is not so important; the invincible emperor ancestor might be able to create greater benefits for him.

Gu An threw the Invincible Emperor Ancestor into his own Dao Fruit Universe.

All Great Immortals can open up universes deep within their souls. Some Great Immortals will focus on developing the power of the universe. Gu An previously tried to plant and harvest herbs in the Dao Fruit Universe, but he did not gain lifespan. Therefore, he had no intention of developing the Dao Fruit Universe.

For him, the Dao Fruit Universe was more like a supernatural power, used to seal enemies and store treasures.

The Invincible Emperor opened his eyes and subconsciously looked around, finding himself in a dim universe.

Suddenly, he seemed to sense something, and turned his head sharply. Then, he froze, his eyes widening in disbelief.

A pair of golden-red eyes stared at him in the darkness, and before those eyes, the Invincible Emperor Ancestor felt an urge to submit.

"Who...are you?"

The invincible emperor asked, his voice trembling.

He could feel the fear in his Immortal Emperor Eyes, a feeling he had never experienced before, which made him extremely terrified of the mysterious eyes in front of him.

"Regarding the deaths of your descendants, you should already understand the cause and effect. Do you have any objections?"

Gu An's voice rang out, his tone cold.

Even though the Invincible Imperial Clan had its own reasons, they were still unwilling to give up. Gu An didn't just wipe them out directly. He first tried to persuade them, but they wouldn't listen. So, they had no choice but to die.

The Invincible Emperor Ancestor took a deep breath and said, "The strong destroy the weak, what's there to complain about? The reason I came here is because I didn't realize that you are stronger than me."

"Before I die, I still want to ask clearly, who exactly are you, and are those eyes of an Immortal Emperor?"

Since the fall of the Heavenly Emperor, he has never seen a second pair of Immortal Emperor Eyes, which has led him to make many guesses about Gu An's identity.

He even speculated that Gu An was the Thief Emperor!

"You guessed wrong. I have nothing to do with the Thief Emperor. My eyes are indeed Immortal Emperor Eyes. You should be able to sense that even though we both have Immortal Emperor Eyes, there is a significant difference between us. This has nothing to do with cultivation level."

Gu An's voice rang out, silencing the Invincible Emperor Ancestor, who felt a strong sense of defeat.

"You hate the Heavenly Court?"

Gu An's question awakened the long-forgotten memories of the Invincible Emperor Ancestor. His Immortal Emperor Eyes immediately appeared, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, now that things have come to this, I have nothing left to hide. The Heavenly Court gods killed my wife and children, and I will never forget this hatred for all eternity!"

The Undefeated Emperor was from countless generations away from him, and he didn't have much affection for the Undefeated Emperor; his feelings were more about the responsibility of continuing his family line.

But his wife and children were different. Even though it was a long time ago, he still couldn't suppress his hatred when he thought about it.

The Heavenly Emperor's Immortal Emperor Eyes aroused the Heavenly Court's suspicion. The gods descended to the mortal realm but were unable to capture the Heavenly Emperor. The victorious Heavenly Emperor was in high spirits and led the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect to take the initiative to confront the Heavenly Court, which attracted the Heavenly Court's mighty suppression.

In that battle, the Primordial Imperial Domain was affected, and countless innocent lives were lost, including the wife and children of the Invincible Ancestor.

The reason he hated it was because his wife and children were not affected by the aftermath of the battle, but because a wounded god needed his life force and sacrificed the entire city where he was. He happened to be outside the city and escaped the calamity, but he witnessed the scene of his wife and children's souls being devoured by the god.

When Gu An searched the soul, he couldn't see the celestial gods and immortals clearly, but he could see the situation at that time, although the gods and immortals appeared blurry.

The celestial beings of Heaven are constantly plotting against him. Even though the Heavenly Spirit God has proposed the strategy of achieving immortality through merit, he still wants to be wary of Heaven.

The invincible imperial clan is a force that can be won over.

His Absolute Void Eyes have absolute suppressive power over the Immortal Emperor Eyes, and he is not afraid of the Invincible Ancestor's betrayal.

"If you serve me as your master, this karmic debt will be forgiven. You and I are both Immortal Emperors, belonging to the same camp. At least we will not be accepted by the Heavenly Court, but will only be suppressed."

When Gu An's voice rang out, the Invincible Emperor Ancestor was not surprised. When he saw the other party's eyes, he knew that the other party could not be a celestial being from the Heavenly Court.

If he refuses, not only will he die, but the imperial clan will likely perish as well.

He had worked so hard for so many years, and he didn't want all his efforts to be in vain.

In his eyes, the invincible imperial clan was merely his weapon, a weapon for his revenge against the Heavenly Court. However, the weapon was not powerful enough, and he had to lie low.

Gu An subdued him because he knew of his hatred and his plans for the imperial family.

"I can make your Immortal Emperor Eye even stronger."

Upon hearing Gu An's words, the Invincible Emperor's pupils constricted sharply. He immediately knelt down and said in a deep voice, "Greetings, my lord!"

……

Subduing the Invincible Emperor Ancestor was just a side story. After giving him some tasks, Gu An released him and continued his peaceful life.

Ever since Yuan Songzi returned, Zhao Rushen has harbored the ambition to challenge the Great Dao Emperor.

This plan had been circulating within the Dao Court for some time. In the past, Zhao Rushen had been unable to defeat Emperor Tianhong. He felt that only by becoming the Great Dao Emperor could he completely shake off Emperor Tianhong.

However, Yuan Songzi did not agree to take him to the Great Path, which made Zhao Rushen very dissatisfied.

He felt humiliated when Yuan Songzi said he wasn't ready. If a mere mortal like Xiao Lan could go, why couldn't he?

Gu An, who occasionally went to accompany Xiao Lan, could see Zhao Rushen's actions. This fellow was secretly trying to win over the higher-ups of the Dao Court, and he even harbored rebellious intentions.

Gu An had no intention of interfering in this matter, as long as it didn't affect Xiao Lan.

Time passed rapidly against this backdrop, at a much faster pace than before, and the primordial era of heaven and earth was coming to an end.
