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

Chapter 775 What is Sainthood?
Seeing the Dark God lower his head, Gu An showed no mercy. With a flick of his right sleeve, the Dark God was instantly annihilated.

A notification appeared before Gu An's eyes: he had successfully seized billions of years of lifespan.

He tilted his head slightly and glanced at the Demon Emperor out of the corner of his eye.

The Demon Emperor met his gaze, his whole body trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to open his mouth, but Gu An disappeared into thin air, as if he had never appeared at all.

A wind from afar blows, sweeping across the heavens and earth, and blowing over the bodies of every living being on the altar.

The followers of the Dark God Cult felt the dark power within them dissipating, leaving them bewildered.

If the Dark God Cult really disbands, how will they face the future?
"Truly a divine being! I wonder who that senior was just now?"

A senior cultivator sighed sincerely, his face somewhat dazed, as if it were all a dream.

"That person just now was our founder, the patriarch of the Dao, who saved humanity many times. You were lucky to have caught him in the act."

One of the disciples of Wushi laughed loudly, his tone smug, which caused an uproar among the other beings.

The patriarch without beginning?
Isn't that the legendary great being?

Upon hearing these words, the Demon Emperor's eyes blazed with fighting spirit, and his entire demeanor was transformed, as if he had become a completely different person.

The Great Sage Qitian, who had been watching him closely, noticed the change in him.

Could it be that the Demon Emperor and the Primordial Ancestor knew each other?
As the Great Sage Qitian thought to himself, a bold idea also arose in his mind, and he became excited as soon as the idea came out.

When no one was watching, Li Ya drew his sword and silently left.

the other side.

Gu An had returned to the Wushi Dojo. As he walked along the mountain path, he raised his right hand, and a wisp of black energy emerged from his palm, revealing a pair of eyes—the eyes of the Dark God.

"How...how could this be..."

When the God of Darkness saw Gu An, he was terrified, but before he could finish speaking, his eyes became empty.

Gu An began searching his soul to learn about his past and the Dark Heavenly Court.

The vast memories of the Dark God were nothing to Gu An now. With a single thought, all the memories entered Gu An's mind.

This dark god was once a being of the Heavenly Dao. Like most stories of becoming an immortal, he was born in the mortal world and was an unparalleled genius. He went through many hardships and ascended to the Great Thousand World, where he established a lineage, took in countless disciples, and eventually became a mythical figure in a great world.

Later, he ascended to immortality, believing he had attained complete enlightenment. However, not long after his ascension, the struggle for the throne broke out, and he was forced to get involved. He originally wanted to protect the vast world and the mortal realm he had lived in amidst the chaos, but unfortunately, his wish was not fulfilled. The three thousand great worlds were destroyed and recreated by the Heavenly Court, and his past ceased to exist.

From then on, a seed of hatred was planted in his heart. Later, when he encountered the struggle for the Heavenly Emperor, he was once again forced to get involved. In the end, the emperor he supported failed and was banished by the Heavenly Emperor. He and his followers were also exiled to chaos to suffer endless backlash from the Great Dao.

During the long years of being devoured by the Great Dao, that emperor had an epiphany, created the Dark Fortune, established the Dark Heavenly Court, and rescued them from torment. In the years that followed, the Dark God continued to cultivate diligently, waiting for the day he could return to the Heavenly Dao.

After the Dark Heavenly Court was established, that emperor proclaimed himself the Heavenly Emperor, known as the Dark Heavenly Emperor. He wanted to use the power of darkness to devour the Heavenly Dao and become the true Heavenly Emperor.

The Dark God, who was a favored son of heaven in the mortal world and an unparalleled myth in the vast world, has been nothing but dust since becoming an immortal. Whether in the Heavenly Court or the Dark Heavenly Court, he seems insignificant.

He was sent by Emperor Bone Tongxuan to lead the charge in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, and he had his own motives. He wanted to take this opportunity to escape the dark destiny and be reborn as a true being of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Spirit Great World had not been truly involved in the struggle for the throne, and its destiny was showing signs of soaring. Therefore, he chose the Heavenly Spirit Great World. He had observed it for a long time. The Dark God had been causing chaos for so many years, but no stronger immortals or gods had appeared. He thought his opportunity had come.

Unfortunately, he met Gu An.

Through his memories, Gu An gained some understanding of the Dark Heavenly Court. The Dark Heavenly Court had nine supreme treasures, and the Endless Tower of Suppressing Heaven was only one of them. The immortals and gods who were banished by the Heavenly Emperor back then were equivalent to half of the Heavenly Court. This power survived in the chaos and indeed posed a certain threat to the Heavenly Dao.

Gu An was puzzled by the Heavenly Emperor's actions.

The Heavenly Emperor possesses the power to exterminate immortals and gods, yet he banishes so many of them. Isn't he afraid of raising a tiger that will become a threat?
Is there a bigger plan at play, or is he simply indifferent?
The Heavenly Emperor is very strong, even in the heart of the Dark God, he is an invincible being. It is precisely because of his fear of the Heavenly Emperor that the Dark God wants to reincarnate into the Heavenly Court to get rid of the Dark Heavenly Court. In his view, the Dark Heavenly Court is hopeless, and he only follows the Dark Heavenly Court out of necessity.

After reading about the Dark God's memories, Gu An felt great sympathy for him.

With a clench of his right hand, he completely shattered the soul essence of the Dark God. Immediately afterward, a notification popped up before his eyes, indicating that the Dark God had granted him a lifespan of 90 billion years.

For this being who has already reached the Great Dao Immortal Realm, having only nine hundred billion years of life left before death is equivalent to reaching the end of his life.

In order to reincarnate, the Dark God revealed his true form, giving Gu An the opportunity to destroy him.

His life is certainly worthy of sympathy, but in order to survive, he has already betrayed many people who have been kind to him, so Gu An will not take him in.

However, out of compassion, Gu An will write his story into a book and let it circulate among people, so that his erased past can exist again.

After destroying the Dark God, the fate of heaven and earth in Gu An's eyes changed completely.

A new landscape will emerge in the future, and many interesting things will happen.

"Time is long, and even the Primordial Profound Immortal is not enough, Taihao. How high a realm must I reach to truly defeat you?"

Gu An thought to himself, a smile playing on his lips, and he began to look forward to that day.

One day, he will keep his promise and have a real battle with the Heavenly Emperor.

The Primordial Profound Immortal is very strong, but it's still far from enough!
In the memories of the Dark God, Gu An heard the mysterious Dark Emperor mention two words: only by becoming a saint could one have an absolute hope of defeating the Heavenly Emperor.

Sanctification?

What is a saint?
……

Deep within the universe, the gate to the cosmos is bursting with brilliant light, and deities such as the Heavenly Spirit God and the Taiyi Immortal Lord are stepping out one after another.

Besides them, there was another immortal god, a god clad in heavy golden armor, surrounded by two red scarves, holding a long spear with stars swirling around its tip. His aura was extremely powerful, surpassing that of the other immortal gods.

They stopped and all frowned.

"The dark aura... has dissipated?"

The Purple Dragon Star Lord, the leader of the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jindong, hesitated before speaking. The other immortals and gods wiped the Heavenly Eyes on their foreheads and looked carefully. The result surprised them.
