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

Chapter 695 The First Primordial Dao Emperor

After arguing with Gu An for a while, Shangguan Xian'er left feeling depressed.

"Master, is there any divine scheming behind the conflict between the Daoist court and the various sects in the mortal world?"

Anxin's voice came, and she opened her eyes, looking at Gu An from afar.

Gu An turned to look at her and asked with a smile, "What? Are you worried about the Qiankun Sect?"

Anxin shook his head and replied, "Whether one wins or loses, it's a natural choice, a matter of fate. I'm just worried that there might be some karmic interference from beyond the heavens. If that's the case, wouldn't it be a great pity for all the religions in the human world?"

Regardless of who wins or loses in the internal struggles of the Heavenly Spirit World, it won't have any lasting impact; a new order will always emerge.

But the variables brought by immortals and gods are different; they may destroy the entire Heavenly Spirit World, something that has happened before.

"Then you don't need to worry. The current conflicts are also part of the evolution of human progress."

When facing An Xin, Gu An was still willing to reveal some secrets.

The schemes of the gods and immortals have always existed, but they are not the current conflict.

An Xin nodded slightly, then came to Gu An's side and began to ask about the difficulties in her cultivation. She had also stepped onto the path of the Primordial Emperor, but her daily cultivation still focused on the Immortal Emperor Eye.

The master and apprentice chatted for a while before Gu An left.

He walked through the woods, his gaze fixed on the main road.

Someone is about to become the Primordial Dao Emperor!

This will be the first Hunyuan Dao Emperor!
That person was Fang Xuan!

On the path of the Great Dao, more than three thousand beings have embarked on the path of the Primordial Emperor. When the first Primordial Dao Emperor is born, the fortune of the Primordial Dao Emperor will greatly increase, thus extending to the three thousand great worlds. At that time, the Primordial Crystal will also be distributed throughout the myriad worlds.

The current Chaos Dao Emperor's fortune is still in its growth stage. If someone can kill Gu An, this fortune will vanish. Once a Chaos Dao Emperor is born, even if Gu An perishes, the Chaos Dao Emperor's fortune will remain, just like the Great Dao, eternally immortal.

For this reason, Gu An also looked forward to Fang Xuan's success.

At this moment, Fang Xuan was meditating in a solitary void. This void contained only him and the Blood Prison Great Sage, who was far away from him and dared not disturb him.

Once this cycle of reincarnation projection ends, and all the insights gained from reincarnation are integrated, Fang Xuan will truly become the Primordial Dao Emperor.

When Gu An's gaze fell on Fang Xuan, Fang Xuan opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with a terrifying light, as if he wanted to illuminate the entire void.

Seeing this, Gu An's lips curled up, and he looked away.

He knew Fang Xuan had succeeded.

And no one will come to stop him.

……

As the sun sets, a man dressed in black, wearing a straw hat, walks along the grassy bank beside the river. He carries a broadsword on his back, three swords at his waist, and a gourd of wine in his hand, drinking as he goes.

Behind the man in black was a boy in plain clothes, with two hemp ropes thicker than his arms tied around his body. The ropes were connected to a broken tree with a diameter of more than ten feet.

This scene was quite spectacular, because the size of the boy in plain clothes was vastly different from that of the broken wood, making people marvel at the immense power contained within his small body.

The boy in plain clothes was already drenched in sweat and panting heavily. He looked up at the man in black ahead and gritted his teeth, saying, "Master, I have already traveled a hundred miles carrying this heavy load. Aren't we going to stop?"

"Where are you going?"

Li Ya answered casually, turning the gourd in his hand upside down and shaking it. Only one drop of wine came out. As soon as the drop fell, he caught it with his other hand and put it into his mouth.

His behavior was so erratic that it was hard to imagine he was a carefree immortal.

The world is ever-changing, with its tides rising and falling, and every prodigy shines in their own way. Li Ya's reputation isn't particularly illustrious, but his growth rate has always been among the best in the world, with constant opportunities. Now, he too has embarked on the path to becoming a Primordial Emperor. Hearing his master's words, the young man in plain clothes couldn't help but ask, "Is constantly training my physique really useful? When will you teach me the methods of cultivation? Master, I really want revenge; you can't play me for fools!"

Li Ya didn't turn around and snorted, "You brat, I'm not some idle person. I don't have the energy to play tricks on you. Your physique is extraordinary and needs to be brought out. I'm doing this for your own good."

Upon hearing this, the young man in plain clothes could only suppress his frustration.

after awhile.

He couldn't help but ask again, "Master, where are we going?"

"Go to the Sword Sect to see what level my junior brother's disciple has reached now."

"Sword Sect? Is my martial uncle also in the Sword Sect?"

During the years that the young man in plain clothes had followed Li Ya, he had heard of the Sword Sect, a peerless sect that was said to harbor immortals. The thought that his master might come from the Sword Sect excited him.

After spending many years together, he only knew that his master was named Li Ya, but he didn't know his master's background. He was always very curious, but unfortunately, Li Ya refused to tell him in detail.

"Your martial uncle is not here, because the founding patriarch of the Sword Sect was your martial uncle's disciple."

Li Ya's answer made the boy in plain clothes widen his eyes, his face showing disbelief.

He was really scared.

The Sword Sect was founded many years ago; in fact, among the legends of the cultivation world he had heard, only the Dao Court was older than the Sword Sect.

If Li Ya wasn't bragging, then how many years has he lived?

"Your master has quite a few disciples, and of course, I have quite a few disciples as well, but unfortunately, my disciples are not as good as his disciples."

Li Ya snorted softly, deliberately provoking the young man in plain clothes.

As expected, upon hearing this, the young man in plain clothes quickly said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down. I will cultivate with the goal of surpassing the founder of the Sword Sect!"

"All you do is talk big."

Li Ya said this, but the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

He truly saw boundless hope in the young man in plain clothes, and he thought of An Hao from the past!
To reach his current level, further improvement in cultivation would require a long period of time, so he also wanted to take on disciples to pass the time. He has already taken on more than ten disciples, but he feels that none of them can compare to Gu An's disciples.

He likes to compare his disciples to An Hao and Yang Jian.

To divert attention, the young man in plain clothes began to ask his uncle's name and where he was.

Unfortunately, no matter how he asked, Li Ya gave ambiguous answers, which made him suspect something was wrong.

Could it be that Master and Uncle-Master don't get along?

Just then, the boy in plain clothes noticed an old man fishing by the river ahead, which puzzled him.

There are no towns or cities within a thousand miles, so why would anyone come here to fish?
Could he be a highly accomplished master?
He had heard many legends that those with great fortune always encounter reclusive, enlightened masters, thereby receiving their inheritance and opportunities.

Li Ya also noticed the old man. He seemed indifferent, but he was actually wary.

Because he couldn't see through the other party's cultivation level!

He remained calm and continued walking.

As he walked past the old man, the old man spoke: "Li Ya comes from the Taicang Dynasty. His father is the Taicang Emperor. He was sent to the Tai Xuan Sect to cultivate when he was young."

Upon hearing this, Li Ya immediately stopped in his tracks.
