STEADILY BECOMING A SAINT, THE IMMORTAL OFFICIALS HIRED ME TO TEND THE HORSES

Chapter 629: Chapter 622: The Name of Wushi

When the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong wanted to find Gu An, as soon as the thought arose, Gu An sensed it.

He didn’t care; he had already erased his causality in the world, even from his disciples and acquaintances.

Of course, if the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong came to the Qiankun Sect, perhaps they could find him.

But even if they found him, they wouldn’t be in for a treat.

Gu An observed An Xin restarting her Immortal Cultivation, his thoughts falling on Tian Hao.

It now seemed that the Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable had stolen not only the World Punishment Dao Pearl from the Ziwei Immortal Palace, but also An Hao.

Or rather, it was mainly about An Hao.

The Celestial Spirit God had long delayed destroying the Celestial Spirit Great World, and the Celestial Court had not urged it; perhaps, deeper forces were preventing the Celestial Spirit, involving even Emperor Ziwei.

Stronger forces were restraining the Celestial Court from destroying the Celestial Spirit Great World, an event that did not leave Gu An feeling fortunate.

Without these causalities, Gu An would not have come into contact with the Celestial Court so prematurely.

Of course, these were just hypotheses; he had already established a connection with An Hao and the Celestial Spirit Great World. He wouldn’t avoid them unless he was truly no match.

With the arrival of the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong, the destiny of the Celestial Spirit Great World changed once more.

Gu An calculated that the Profound Star Immortal Monarch and Taiyi Immortal Monarch would descend into this Great World. After their arrival, the Great Thousand World would meet its end.

Due to the Celestial Dao Destiny, the future had many vague areas, but he could see the general trend and duration.

“Celestial Gods, Star Monarchs, Immortal Monarchs…”

Gu An pondered the hierarchies within the Celestial Court, wondering what realm he needed to reach to not fear the court’s threats.

He began to feel the Celestial Dao Destiny.

With the descent of the Seventy-Two Immortals of Jin Dong, the Celestial Dao Destiny in the universe surpassed that of the past, the Celestial Dao Light Layer enveloping the Great World condensed infinite golden light, illuminating the universe, dazzling and bright.

Gu An had always been curious about Celestial Dao Destiny. At this moment, he realized that Celestial Dao Destiny was harder to comprehend than the Great Dao, primarily because the Great Dao had no will, whereas the Celestial Dao seemed to harbor some will, possessing a strong exclusivity.

…

After the Golden Extreme God was devoured by the Golden Cave Immortal, the Innate Human Race did not disappear; they continued to plague the Human World, and they could not be completely eradicated.

Although it was impossible to eradicate the Innate Human Race in a short period of time, those who opposed them continued to build their renown.

More and more prodigies rose; to the Mortal Spirits, this was the worst era, but for the sects of Immortal Cultivation, it was the best. They began using the Innate Human Race to train their disciples.

Time swiftly passed, and a thousand years went by.

In the extreme northern lands of the world, snow filled the skies, and mountains and rivers were covered in snow.

Lv Xian, Blood Prison Great Saint, Chen Chuan, Celestial Demon Child, Celestial Cyan, Tian Bai, An Shengtian, and Jiang Shixing walked along the mountain ridge, the snow falling on them rapidly evaporated, turning into white mist and dispersing.

“I didn’t expect you to come,” the Blood Prison Great Saint said with a smile, looking at Lv Xian walking ahead.

Lv Xian snorted, “Nonsense, I am also a part of the Beginningless; naturally, I must unite with you.”

In these years, he had fought alone, creating a significant reputation. Although not as famous as Tian Hao, he was still among the top prodigies in the world. Hearing that the Beginningless were gathering to save the world, he rushed over.

Dao Treasures could sense each other and even communicate, so coming together was not difficult for them.

Hearing Lv Xian’s words, the others joined in the conversation.

“Indeed, we should show the Great Cultivators across the world the prowess of our Beginningless.”

“The Canghai Profound Yin Sect even dared to besiege me and the Blood Prison Great Saint— we must teach them a lesson,” proclaimed An Hao.

“Our primary target is to eliminate the calamity of the Innate Human Race. Once this tribulation is over, we’ll settle scores with those sects.”

“With the cooperation of the eight Dao Treasures, no one in this world can stop us. The only mystery is what kind of entity the Innate Human Race conceals behind them. Let’s hope it doesn’t alarm the master.”

Everyone discussed, brimming with confidence—a confidence imparted by the Dao Treasures.

After thousands of years of battles, they had grown significantly, each making progress. The least among them had reached the elevation of Carefree Primordial Immortal, while the Blood Prison Great Saint and Celestial Demon Child had even ascended to the Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma Realm.

The Dao Treasures contained the intents of different Great Daos, always ready to aid them in Enlightenment. During battles, the intent was maximum, thus every battle brought them profound insights.

As the Beginningless disciples moved forward, several figures dashed through the distant snowy fog, disappearing; they headed in the same direction as the Beginningless disciples, who paid them no heed.

In the subsequent times, many surpassed them, vanishing into the fog ahead while they maintained a steady pace, discussing both their individual feuds and the affairs of the world.

After a long time.

They walked through swathes of fog and reached the edge of a cliff, standing side by side and looking ahead to a majestic icy lake. Nestled among mountains, the high surface of the lake threatened to flood over the peaks and deliver a cataclysm to the lands behind them.

Looking around, the cliffs surrounding the icy lake were crowded with countless figures grouped by forces, with tremendous demons swirling in the clouds above; the scene was truly awe-inspiring.

Lv Xian gazed down at the icy lake and asked, “Is this the source of the Innate Human Race? Why haven’t any evil demons emerged from it in these days?”

Celestial Demon Child responded, “Unclear, but the world is abuzz with this news, and with so many sects rushing here, there must be some basis.”

Others sent their Divine Sense toward the icy lake, and quickly sensed a vast aura swirling beneath, blocking all attempts at spying with Divine Sense.

Sensing this unfathomable aura, the Beginningless group’s expressions turned solemn.

Not only them, but the newly arrived cultivators of other sects also changed color at this discovery.

A figure descended from the sky, landing behind the group, who turned and smiled in pleasant surprise.

It was Tian Hao!

Tian Hao laughed and greeted, “Fellow Daoists, brothers, sisters, it has been a while. I knew you would come!”

They immediately gathered around him, chattering away.

In the distance, disciples of the Qiankun Sect watched this scene, exchanging looks of curiosity about Tian Hao’s relationship with the Beginningless group.

The leading Gu Chengdao watched the scene, his expression unchanging, as he led his disciples towards an unclaimed peak.

Various sects deliberated what might be hidden beneath the icy lake. Due to Tian Hao, the Beginningless group attracted considerable attention, and soon, the news that Tian Hao originated from the Beginningless spread, making all sects warier and more curious about the Beginningless.

The Dao Treasure of Beginningless was renowned across the world, as up to now, no one had defeated a Beginningless Dao Treasure, even those whose realms far surpassed the disciples wielding them.

The actions of Beginningless over the years had been very conspicuous. Now, hearing that Tian Hao came from Beginningless inspired awe in all who heard.

Could the Beginningless possibly be a force even stronger than the Dao Court, capable of producing the number one pride of heaven?

Suddenly, an immense oppressive force descended, followed by a voice echoing across the icy and snowy lands:

“I am Elder Fu Chun of the Dao Court. I will open the barrier beneath this lake. Only Fellow Daoists who have reached the Ninth Heaven of the Immortal Path may enter the lake with me; others must stay outside to guard against any attack from the Innate Human Race.”

As the voice faded, the sea of clouds above churned violently, forming a massive vortex. The Beginningless group looked up to see a giant sword materializing at the center of the vortex—larger than mountains, a broadsword with a sharp blade and ancient hilt, exuding an air of endless antiquity.

As the sword descended, its handle became visible, with an old Daoist standing upon it, his right hand on his chest, casting a spell.

“That’s one of the four divine swords of the Dao Court, the Sky-breaking Sword!”

Someone exclaimed, revealing the origin of the sword.
