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

Chapter 998: Chapter 990: Primordial Taiyi True Saint Realm Perfect

As the Extreme Nether Emperor reminisced about the terrifying figure he had seen, the instigator of this great fortune had already returned to the Heavenly Dao, returned to Central Heaven.

It was precisely Gu An’s doing.

He absorbed a third of his life span, elevating his cultivation level to the Perfection Realm of the Primordial Taiyi True Saint!

Peak of the Saint!

From the Middle Stage to the Perfection Realm, Gu An transcended two small realms, yet this leap surpassed all the previous realms.

Every small realm of a Saint could trigger phenomena that swept across the entire chaos, and the Late Stage and the Perfection Realm possessed incredible powers.

The reason Gu An guided all beings to peer into the future was that he too was seeking the future, and within the future, exploring the Dao he desired.

A Saint at the Late Stage can realize all possibilities he envisions, acquiring the power he is capable of ahead of time.

A Saint at the Perfection Realm returns to simplicity, without need for imagination, the Great Dao naturally aligns with him. From now on, even if Gu An were to sleep continually, the true meaning of the Great Dao would flow to him endlessly, causing his cultivation level to grow infinitely.

Gu An walked within the Daoist Field of the Beginningless, re-experiencing the multitude of heavens and earths.

In his eyes, everything was formed by the Great Dao, including humans.

The Great Dao is omnipresent and also guides the direction of all beings.

Gu An can now see the boundaries of chaos.

Chaos expands in disarray, endlessly, and beyond chaos exists other cosmic planes, not adjoining each other, with different Daos, completely unconnected, and without becoming a Saint, one cannot cross.

Gu An could directly see the Great Infinite Demon Ancestor, still sending beings containing his cause and effect toward the Heavenly Dao.

Besides, in other directions, Gu An saw a few black shadows, although vague, it could be confirmed these shadows were similarly watching chaos.

Among them, one shadow was very close to chaos, as if it could step in at any moment.

Gu An suddenly felt that chaos seemed boundless, yet also like a cage, with countless hidden dangers around.

He retracted his gaze and continued observing chaos.

Chaos could attract the attention of so many unknown existences, it must have unique aspects.

What exactly makes the Saints outside of chaos so covetous?

Gu An moved forward while looking toward the deepest part of chaos.

Along the way, any Wushiji disciple who saw him couldn’t help but be stunned, including those great powers sealed in cultivation and working in the medicine field.

Gu An walked along the distant mountain path, his stature clearly not tall, his momentum not strong, yet one glance would make one unable to look away.

This feeling was very strange, they even felt their minds were about to be absorbed until Gu An disappeared from their sight, only then did they come back to their senses.

The Nine Tribulations Immortal Emperor murmured to himself, "Could it be that he gained some insight in the recent great fortune?"

Towards Gu An, she was full of awe; to this day she did not know how strong Gu An was, but she did not associate Gu An with the presence behind the recent great fortune.

She was only curious, curious about how much stronger Gu An, who was already so powerful, became after his sudden enlightenment?

Other beings with suppressed cultivation held the same confusion.

The remaining Jiucang Heavenly Monarch felt fortunate; with such a great power to shelter them, perhaps he truly could escape the calamity of the Celestial Court.

It wasn’t until Gu An arrived at the Mountain of No End that he exited the state of probing the Great Dao.

The previous state of probing could lead to a loss in the Great Dao, making it naturally difficult for the cultivators pursuing the Great Dao to withstand.

"I didn’t expect something like this to be hidden in the depths of chaos, is Nine the supreme number?"

Gu An revealed a smile on his face; today’s discovery was very interesting to him.

At the same time, he felt sadness for the Celestial Emperor.

It turns out everything has a fixed number!

However, where there is a fixed number, there is naturally a variable.

Gu An believed the Celestial Emperor still had a certain possibility of changing destiny.

His aura returned to its original state, and no one would have thought that he merely went out for half a day, and upon returning, his cultivation had undergone a world-altering change.

After ascending the Mountain of No End, when Gu An encountered the second generation disciples along the way, they would ask him who the great opportunity earlier originated from, and he would simply smile and say the Great Dao is boundless, no one can see it clearly.

When he returned to the courtyard, Shen Zhen stopped him, staring intently at him and asked, "Was the earlier fortune related to you?"

Gu An raised an eyebrow and asked, "I just went out for a stroll, not interested in directing all living beings."

"Is that so? Such a coincidence?"

"Believe it or not, I need to return for a great dream, to cherish what I just gained."

Gu An gently pushed Shen Zhen aside and walked straight to his room.

Shen Zhen turned to look at him, her gaze skeptical.

The impact of this great fortune that swept across chaos and the Heavenly Dao was immense, and would only intensify over time.

In the coming days, in Central Heaven, there would constantly be great powers breaking through, causing phenomena between heaven and earth, and there would even be unparalleled geniuses with talent stirring the heavens to be born.

Central Heaven does not expand indefinitely, but the new forces in Central Heaven are nevertheless continuous, and the grown powers begin to extend toward all heavens and myriad realms, displaying their might, spreading the incredible nature of Central Heaven, raising its status ever higher within the Heavenly Dao.

Time flew by rapidly.

Millions of years later, the great fortune caused by Gu An’s breakthrough had become a legend, overshadowed by other legends of strife, and it was then that Gu An began to act once more.

He arrived at the Merit Divine Horse Heavenly Palace of the Celestial Court, and after entering the palace, he sat on the throne belonging to the Merit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch, first looking toward the margins of the Heavenly Dao.

The friction between the Celestial Court and Cangming was increasingly frequent, and at the margins of the Celestial Dao destiny, there were constant instances of evil demons invading the Heavenly Dao, these demons not only massacred and destroyed but also devoured Celestial Dao Destiny.

Even the Celestial Dao Destiny of the Underworld was impacted.

Under such circumstances, the Celestial Court greatly accelerated the recruitment of Heavenly Soldiers, with thousands being born each day.

Aside from external wars, many Immortal Gods who violated Celestial Rules were also dealt with, as the Celestial Emperor began an investigation to find out who were the spies of Cangming.

The Celestial Emperor, who held the Heavenly Dao, could clearly see through all anomalies, but insisted on mutual suspicion among the Immortal Gods.

Gu An took in all the situations of the Celestial Court, then focused his thoughts on the Divine Horse Celestial Official.

He was not an idle position and needed to manage affairs; if he remained silent, there would be internal strife among the Divine Horse Celestial Officials, and those ambitious Immortal Gods might seize the opportunity to usurp the divine steeds.

Gu An raised his hand, a series of jade scrolls appeared in his hand, and he only needed to inscribe his orders into the jade scrolls for the Divine Horse Celestial Officials to receive the directives.

After handling these trivial matters, he looked toward the Palace of the Polestar.

An evil force would appear on the eaves of the Palace of the Polestar, causing havoc in the Celestial Court, delivering a heavy blow to the Celestial Court, and making the Celestial Emperor even more paranoid.

Gu An raised his right hand, reaching forward, transcending the River of Time, and captured a chaotic strongman who would invade several million years later.

This was a man in a black robe, embroidered with strange and fierce Dao Patterns, and his expression was one of shock when caught by Gu An.

Gu An looked down at him, marking deep into his soul with his gaze, and then placed him back millions of years ahead.

Simultaneously, the present man in the black robe was imprinted on the soul, and all of this went unnoticed, even by himself.

In the future, he would also forget this event.
