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

Chapter 899 An Unattainable Realm
Tens of millions of years is a long time for the people of the Heavenly Spirit Great World, it can even be said to be an era, but it is very short for the Wushi disciples who moved to the Central Heaven.

Millions of years later, numerous medicinal gardens have been established within the Wushi Dao Temple, with each disciple having their own medicinal garden and medicinal field. Gu An's medicinal garden is managed by his mother, the Ephemeral Flower Ghost.

In that year, an unprecedented war broke out in the Great Dao Void above the Three Thousand Great Worlds, which even the disciples of Wushi, who were in the Central Heaven, could sense.

The disciples found familiar fellow disciples and gathered together to discuss the oppressive aura emanating from beyond the heavens.

At this moment, Gu An was picking herbs when the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother, who was following him, asked curiously, "Are there battles taking place outside the heavens?"

"This is the great war between immortals and demons in the three thousand great worlds, and this will be the final battle."

Gu An answered casually, carefully wrapping up the harvested mature herbs and placing them in the bamboo basket in front of the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother.

The Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower hesitated, as if she wanted to speak but then stopped.

Gu An saw through her thoughts and said softly, "Don't worry, the Three Thousand Great Worlds will be fine. In the future, cultivators from the Heavenly Spirit Great World will ascend here. You might even see those disciples who chose to stay."

Upon hearing this, the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother showed an expectant look on her face.

Many of her familiar disciples are no longer around, and she sometimes feels a sense of loss. She respects their choices, but she also feels regret.

Hearing Gu An's words, the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother suddenly realized the truth.

It turns out they didn't leave, but went to the destination that everyone needs to reach, waiting for their old friends to arrive.

Thinking this way, the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother became secretly wary.

Those disciples who remained in the Heavenly Spirit World probably never imagined this.

Having fallen behind for countless years, they are bound to be far behind the disciples of Wushi who chose to follow Gu An.

Indeed, following one's master is the only correct choice.

At first, she thought that her master was just bored and wanted to change places, but now that she thought about it, any decision made by a powerful cultivator like her master must have a profound purpose.

Gu An found it amusing to hear the thoughts of the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother, but he did not expose her.

He came to Zhongtian simply because he thought Zhongtian would be more interesting.

It doesn't matter where you cultivate. If you can observe the development and growth of a great world, life will be very interesting. Moreover, this process can enhance your understanding of the Great Dao, not only for yourself but also for other disciples.

The Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother stopped speaking and began to imagine the great war between immortals and demons.

This great battle lasted a long time, and the oppressive aura reaching the heavens continued to change, allowing the disciples of Wushi to feel the intensity of the battle.

Several days later, the oppressive force reached an incredibly terrifying level, causing the earth in Zhongtian to tremble, which greatly alarmed the disciples of Wushi.

What kind of realm is this?
"What level of cultivation are the two sides currently engaged in battle?"

Under the cover of night, in the courtyard, Shen Zhen, who was sitting in front of the refining cauldron, looked at Gu An and asked curiously.

She originally had her own courtyard, but she didn't like living there, so she found an opportunity to move back, claiming that she could better understand the Tao here.

Gu An was reading a book written by a disciple, and he was reading it with a critical and scrutinizing mindset.

“Very, very high,” Gu An replied casually.

The realm of the Primordial Profound Immortal cannot be revealed to Shen Zhen and his disciples yet, because it is far beyond their reach.

Moreover, one of them is even superior to the Primordial Profound Immortal. Shen Zhen raised an eyebrow and asked, "Very superior? Then do I have a chance to reach that level?"

Having followed Gu An in cultivation for so many years, her mindset had long since changed. She felt that she could keep breaking through without limits, but the pressure she felt tonight made her waver. She didn't know how long it would take to reach that level.

Such a powerful pressure actually came from the Three Thousand Great Worlds. It's hard to imagine what it would feel like to be in the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
"No."

Gu An's answer was so straightforward that Shen Zhen was immediately speechless, losing all interest, and the courtyard fell into silence.

He didn't intentionally try to hurt Shen Zhen; that's the truth.

Gu An, having attained sainthood, can help those around him become stronger, far exceeding his inherent limits, but he cannot make others infinitely stronger.

Let alone the Primordial Profound Immortal, even the Great Dao Luo Immortal depends on one's own destiny. And the Primordial Profound Qi Immortal between the two cannot be achieved by relying on others.

The paths to transcending immortality are all different; following in others' footsteps will not work.

This is why Gu An would guide his disciples to comprehend the Dao, but would not allow them to focus on cultivating his Daoist techniques.

The night was still, and the disciples of Wushi in the endless mountains and forests could not calm their minds to cultivate. They gathered together to discuss the mysterious battle and reminisce about the past.

They were equally grateful to Gu An, knowing what coming to Zhongtian meant.

Countless years later, they will be beings of a higher generation than all living beings in the world. Just thinking about it makes them excited, and they are all looking forward to the future of Zhongtian.

The night passed.

The oppressive aura emanating from the Three Thousand Great Worlds disappeared early the next morning, and the world returned to peace.

The mundane life at the Wushi Temple continues.

Ten years later, a deafening roar came from afar, awakening all the disciples of Wushi.

Gu An was playing chess with Fairy Yao Xuan. The two sat in the bamboo forest, enjoying the gentle breeze.

Fairy Yaoxuan turned her head and frowned, saying, "What is this aura? The rules of heaven and earth are all surging towards it."

Gu An placed his piece and replied with a smile, "The first being of Zhongtian is about to be born. He is born from the creation of heaven and earth and the fortune of the heavenly way. His talent is beyond your imagination. He will be the starting point of Zhongtian's mythology. Perhaps, many years later, he will come to our Wushi."

These words piqued Fairy Yaoxuan's curiosity. She looked at Gu An and asked, "The significance of Zhongtian to the Heavenly Dao is clearly extraordinary. You brought us here ahead of time. Aren't you afraid of being targeted by the Heavenly Court?"

She always believed that Gu An was the Eternal Emperor, but since Gu An didn't admit it, she didn't expose him. Now, she was no longer obsessed with her past relationship with the Eternal Emperor; she cared more about her own cultivation and the growth of her son, Zui.

In her heart, this is the best life she could have, and she asks for nothing more.

Gu An dared not reveal her identity as the Eternal Emperor and instead hid in the shadows, clearly out of fear of the Heavenly Court's immortals and gods. The Eternal Emperor had once been hunted down by immortals and gods, and in this life, Gu An had clashed with them many times, which was one of the reasons she wanted to become stronger.

After arriving in Zhongtian, she was very confused and didn't understand what Gu An wanted to do. As for Gu An's explanation, she didn't believe it either. How could it be that he was just tired of living in a different place?

Gu An replied, "Don't worry, it won't be discovered. This training ground is different from the training grounds in the Heavenly Spirit Great World. Moreover, I won't let my disciples leave this world before all living beings are here."

Although he no longer feared the Heavenly Court, he did not want to publicize the matter to avoid his disciples becoming arrogant. Of course, he was also afraid that he himself would become arrogant and disrespectful.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Yaoxuan nodded, choosing to believe Gu An for the time being.

Just then, rolling thunderclouds rose in the sky, and the world quickly darkened, with terrifying heavenly might enveloping the entire central heaven.
