Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses

Chapter 862: Chapter 854: Battle of the Human Gods

Xuanyuan Human Venerable’s face was fluctuating between light and shade, and the Marshal of Heaven did not urge him, patiently waiting for his decision.

For a long time.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable let out a breath of turbid air, stood up, and walked towards the steps, with each step his sharpness fading away.

When he descended the steps, he appeared utterly desolate, stopping beside the Marshal of Heaven.

“Marshal of Heaven, you are the Commander of Heavenly Gods, having made countless contributions to the Celestial Court, and are regarded as the War God by all living beings. I hope that in the coming years, you can bring less suffering to the Three Thousand Great Worlds.”

Xuanyuan Human Venerable said softly, well aware of the consequences of the Heavenly Emperor sending Immortal Gods into the Three Thousand Great Worlds.

Unless an unforeseen event occurs, he, unable to touch the Three Thousand Great Worlds, can only watch the lives suffer, shaking their faith in him.

But he had no way to resist; not to mention he was no match for the Marshal of Heaven, once he resists, the Heavenly Emperor could lodge a complaint with Cangtian, suppressing him with the Celestial Dao, and his end would be even more miserable.

The Marshal of Heaven showed no expression, not looking at Xuanyuan Human Venerable, he only responded softly: “I am also a Celestial Court Immortal God, I have my duties, I listen to the Celestial Mandate, but will also uphold the Immortal Position.”

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Human Venerable’s lips curled up, and he continued stepping forward.

“All parties of the Celestial Court say that among the new gods, only the Marshal of Heaven has the hope to become the Celestial Dao Venerable. Now it seems, you indeed have such boldness.”

The Marshal of Heaven turned and followed Xuanyuan Human Venerable away, his expression unchanged from beginning to end.

A light shone through the Great World Divine Palace’s door, lengthening their shadows, as they gradually disappeared into the golden light.

…

The Immortal Gods are about to investigate the Three Thousand Great Worlds, and only Gu An and An Zizai know of this, not even Taiyi Immortal Monarch, Celestial Spirit God, and other Immortal Gods are aware.

In the blink of an eye, another seven million years passed by.

At noon on this day, Gu An stood at the edge of a cliff on the mountain peak where he resided, looking up at the sky.

“It’s finally coming.”

Gu An saw a Heavenly Ascension Stairs appearing in the void of a certain Great Thousand World, and Immortal Gods stepping down from it. Some of these Immortal Gods opened their right hands, revealing a Celestial Army exceeding one hundred thousand in number, flying out like locusts, swiftly heading in all directions of the universe.

The time in the Celestial Court is different from that in the Three Thousand Great Worlds; seven million years is the time of the Great Thousand Worlds, while not much time has passed in the Celestial Court.

Among these Immortal Gods were five Dao Extreme Daluo Immortals, who deliberately concealed their aura, but could not escape Gu An’s discerning eyes.

This differed from the future Gu An had previously seen. Since the Emperor Xuan was defeated in the Celestial Spirit Great World, the destiny of this calamity changed. Initially, only one Dao Extreme Daluo Immortal was to lead the army, and even without action, the Immortal God Army was enough to sweep across the Three Thousand Great Worlds.

Gu An pulled up his Attribute Panel to check.

[Name: Gu An]

[Life Span: 157,690,703/49,662,347,008,512,977]

[Physique: Creation Essence Body]

[Cultivation Level: Ultimate Merging Dao Venerable Emperor Realm Perfection]

…

Four trillion, nine hundred billion years life span!

Nearly five trillion years life span!

It seems a lot, but it’s still far from a breakthrough.

Gu An took nearly twenty-two trillion years of life span to break through to the Ultimate Merging Dao Venerable Emperor, and has not yet accumulated the same life span as before.

Back then, he could obtain so much life span mainly by relying on the Evil Demons from the Struggle for the Son of Heaven.

Killing grants life span far faster than planting flowers and grass.

However, Gu An cannot wantonly kill, as he cannot get past the hurdle in his heart.

But with the descent of Immortal Gods, Gu An saw another opportunity.

This descent of the Immortal Gods will evolve into a war between the Human Gods. Even forces beyond the Three Thousand Great Worlds will intervene, with the Dark Heavenly Court, Eternal Dao Extreme, and even the Underworld seizing the opportunity. Gu An will have many chances to seize life spans.

In Gu An’s eyes, the future is still changing, as various powers interfere in the calamity of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, altering the catastrophe.

The Heavenly Emperor still underestimated the power hidden within Chaos and the Celestial Dao.

He intended to take the Three Thousand Great Worlds as his knife, yet others seized the chance to conspire against him.

As this evolution continues, it’s only a matter of time before the Heavenly Emperor enters the stage, and by then, the situation will be uncontrollable.

Gu An can see such a fate, surely the Celestial Emperor can too, making him curious about the Celestial Emperor’s perspective on all this?

…

The Path of the Great Dao.

A continent floats in the Dark Void, on which stands an incomparably gigantic city, with countless beings coming and going, its radiance being the only source of light in the void.

In the city, within a pavilion, Li Ya and Zhen Qin sat facing each other at a table.

Li Ya wore a plain white robe, with loose hair, pale face, he looked at Zhen Qin, smiled and said, “This city is no simple place, the brews here are all Immortal Products, don’t be deceived by such a small bottle, its price is not low.”

Zhen Qin raised the wine glass on the table, toasted Li Ya with it, and drank it all in one go. She put down the glass and asked with concern: “Uncle Master, did you encounter any trouble? Why is your aura so chaotic?”

Now, Li Ya had already become a Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal, with a cultivation higher than Zhen Qin’s, yet Zhen Qin could feel his unstable aura, showing his injuries were not light.

Li Ya shook his head with a smile: “It’s nothing serious, on the Path of the Great Dao there are countless opportunities, conflict is inevitable, sometimes encountering Daoist Emperors or Primordial Dao Emperors is bad luck, don’t worry, such injuries are nothing to me.”

In front of the junior Zhen Qin, he could not show weakness, lest she return to tell Gu An about it.

To dispel Zhen Qin’s skepticism, Li Ya proactively narrated his recent grudges.

Of course, the conclusion of the matters naturally ended in a grand manner.

“Dare to provoke me, even though I come from the Mortal Realm, I will not tolerate them.” Li Ya boasted enthusiastically, spreading his arms, supporting them on the table edges, showcasing his demeanor as a Great Power.

Zhen Qin was silent for a moment, then said: “Uncle Master, if you can’t endure it, you can return to Wushi. My master said that there are opportunities for you to grow stronger in Wushi, there’s no need to struggle so hard.”

At this, Li Ya’s smile froze, he paused, coughed awkwardly: “Why would I struggle? Such carefree and freewheeling life is exactly what I desire. Don’t overthink it, when you return, tell your master I am fine, he need not worry, and tell him to be cautious. Who knows, next time we meet, I might have surpassed him in cultivation.”

After hearing this, Zhen Qin couldn’t help but ask: “Uncle Master, what is your current cultivation level?”

Li Ya replied proudly: “I have already attained Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal.”

Before he left the Celestial Spirit Great World, the Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal was the most powerful realm.

After hearing this, Zhen Qin mourned for Li Ya in her heart.

The Blood Prison Great Saint, that ox, had already attained Innate Golden Immortal, Uncle Master, why do you trouble yourself so?

She wanted to spread this matter, yet felt it inappropriate, as the Blood Prison Great Saint had previously mentioned wanting to teach Li Ya a lesson because Li Ya did not respect him when he was an ox.
