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

Chapter 955 The Immortal of Merit

"I didn't expect him to come too."

The Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord spoke with a complicated expression. His voice was very soft, but it was still heard by the Red Dust Supreme, who was squatting in the medicinal field not far away.

"Is the Nine Heavens Lord also an immortal or god?" asked the Supreme Being of the Mortal World. He had been away from the Heavenly Court for too long, and apart from a few immortals and gods, he hardly knew anyone below the Supreme Being of the Heavenly Dao.

The Immortal Lord Zhenxie gazed at the horizon, his expression turning solemn. He said, "He is a supreme immortal of the Heavenly Court."

For him, a Celestial Lord, the Supreme Immortal was a being far above all else. He had only met the Nine Heavens Lord a few times, but the impression he left was profound.

Upon hearing that it was a supreme immortal, the Supreme Being of the Mortal World immediately lost interest and continued with his work.

But soon, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

How many years will he spend tending to these flowers and plants?
The Supreme Being of the Mortal World realized that he might really be trapped in an endless mundane life. Besides working, they also had time to rest at night. As long as the Great Sage of Blood Prison didn't come, no one would bully them. But after such days went on for a long time, he felt that life was worse than death.

He was plunged into a deep depression, and the more he thought about it, the more desperate he became.

The Nine Heavens Lord's oppressive aura appeared quickly, but it also disappeared just as quickly.

Compared to the supreme being of the mortal world, the Immortal Lord of Suppressing Evil still held onto hope, hoping that the Nine Azure Heavenly Lord could fight his way through this evil continent. Even if he couldn't defeat those evil beings, at least he could bring the news back to the Heavenly Court.

The dignified immortals were imprisoned here. The Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord thought far ahead. He felt that there was more to this continent than just deceiving mortals. There must be a much bigger conspiracy hidden behind it.

The more the Immortal Lord Zhenxie thought about it, the more confused he became, realizing that he had been drawn into an extremely terrible conspiracy.

Is it the Dark Heavenly Court, or some other chaotic force?

How could Zhongtian be hiding such a big problem?

Just as the Immortal Lord of Suppressing Evil was becoming increasingly terrified, the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower appeared, immediately attracting the attention of him and the Supreme Being of the Mortal World.

The two immortals couldn't help but shift their gaze from the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother to a black panther beside her, which wore a golden collar around its neck.

"From now on, you will be responsible for taking care of it."

After saying these words, the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower turned and left.

Looking at the black panther, the two immortals fell into an eerie silence.

The black panther stood still, its eyes glazed over. Although it was not human, the expression on its face was quite similar to that of the two immortals.

The Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord opened his mouth, then cautiously asked, "Heavenly... Heavenly Lord?"

Black Panther snapped out of his daze and looked at them with a complicated expression. He raised his head, adopting an arrogant demeanor, exactly the same as when the Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord faced the Supreme Being of the Mortal World.

The Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord was somewhat dazed. He suddenly understood why the Supreme Being of the Mortal World didn't like to pay attention to him.

He originally held the Nine Azure Heavenly Lord in high esteem, but seeing the Nine Azure Heavenly Lord in such a state and still looking down on him with such contempt, his impression of the Nine Azure Heavenly Lord plummeted to its lowest point.

He stopped asking questions and started doing his own thing.

The Supreme Being of the Mortal World also ignored them.

for a long time.

The black panther quietly departed.

The Immortal Lord of Suppressing Evil watched the black panther disappear into the depths of the forest, sighed softly, and then turned to look at the Supreme Being of the Mortal World.

"When I escaped back then, what did you think of my departing figure?" Zhenxie Immortal Lord asked.

The Supreme Being of the Mortal World coldly snorted: "No need to doubt, it's just like what you're thinking now."

He changed the subject and continued, "From a certain perspective, if we can get out of here alive, it will be a very good experience. At least it will make us understand the difference between immortals and mortals, and why we can be so arrogant."

Of course, the prerequisite is getting out alive; if not, it will be endless torment. The Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord remained silent, looking up into the distance towards the direction of Mount Wuzhong.

Judging from the situation on a daily basis, the existence here did not torment them, but rather seemed to be testing them.

What exactly is the entity behind the scenes trying to do?
The Daoist heart of the Demon-Suppressing Immortal Lord began to waver.

A month later, Black Panther returned, but it wasn't the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother who brought him back, but the Blood Prison Great Sage.

Upon seeing the Blood Prison Great Sage, the Mortal World Supreme and the Evil Suppressing Immortal Lord immediately felt uncomfortable and lowered their heads. They did not want to be humiliated in front of the Nine Heavens Heavenly Lord.

What happened next was exactly as they expected: the Nine Heavens Lord was whipped mercilessly by the Blood Prison Great Sage, howling in pain, utterly disgraced as a Heavenly Lord.

The first beating did not make Jiu Cang Tianjun give in. He escaped again early the next morning, but this time he was caught by Xue Yu Da Sheng after only half a day.

The daily humiliation eventually wore down the Nine Heavens Lord's resolve.

However, the Nine Heavens Lord never spoke to the two Supreme Beings of the Mortal World, maintaining a contemptuous attitude as if speaking to them would be an insult.

……

Capturing immortals and gods was just a little fun for Gu An; he didn't pay much attention to those three immortals and gods.

His attitude towards outsiders was completely different. If a non-celestial being or god was not burdened with karma, he would expel him. But if a heinous being arrived, he would kill him and take his lifespan.

Although the Supreme Being of the Mortal World, the Immortal Lord of Suppressing Evil, and the Heavenly Lord of the Nine Azures are arrogant, they are not evil immortals or gods, a fact that cannot escape Gu An's eyes.

Two thousand years later.

Gu An arrived at the summit of Wuzhong Mountain. He stood on the edge of the cliff and gazed into the distance.

Before the cliffs, a sea of ​​clouds churns, resembling a fairyland, and in the distance, mountain peaks can be faintly seen.

"Senior Brother Li Ya, you're finally going to become an immortal."

Gu An smiled and muttered to himself.

Li Ya was chosen by Xuanqing Star Lord and White-haired Immortal Ancestor. In addition, due to his great merits, today he will be included in Xuanqing Star Lord's Heavenly Dao Immortal Register and ranked among the immortals and gods.

The Heavenly Dao Immortal Scroll in the hands of Xuanqing Star Lord is a new way to become an immortal. By engraving one's name into it and receiving the tempering of the Heavenly Dao's fortune, one can become an immortal. As long as this kind of meritorious immortal continues to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, even higher-ranking immortals and gods cannot suppress him.

The Heavenly Emperor created the Immortals of Merit to bring about changes to the Heavenly Court. The Immortals of Merit are essentially another system, free from jurisdiction and suppression.

Li Ya will be the first Immortal of Merit, which means that their future status will definitely not be low.

At this moment, Li Ya was also filled with excitement. Hundreds of thousands of followers were watching him and Xuanqing Xingjun, their expressions fervent.

For his disciples, Li Ya's ascension to immortality was a manifestation of their faith bearing fruit.

Li Ya became an immortal first, and then they followed him. Together they wanted to transform the Heavenly Court and bring a completely new atmosphere to the Heavenly Dao!

Gu An looked at Li Ya and listened to the thoughts of Li Ya's disciples, his heart filled with emotion.

He had always viewed Li Ya with a protective attitude, but looking at these disciples and listening to their thoughts, he felt that Li Ya had surpassed him in this respect.

Although Gu An founded Wushi, Wushi's spirit was not strong, and its actions were too effortless.

Li Ya and his disciples had even greater ambitions, and their path was even more arduous.

“The ideal is indeed very good, but, senior brother, to realize it, you need to have the power to decide everything,” Gu An muttered to himself, the smile on his face not fading.

Perhaps Li Ya's power is insufficient, but Li Ya has him.
