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

Chapter 876: Chapter 868: Life Span of Trillions of Years

After listening to the words of Cixuan Old Immortal, the expression of Xuanyuan Human Venerable fluctuated between brightness and darkness.

Although Cixuan Old Immortal was anxious, he also understood that Xuanyuan Human Venerable had to come to terms with this matter first.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable looked at Cixuan Old Immortal and asked, “Have you ever thought, even if I risk everything and make the Celestial Army retreat, the all living beings of the Three Thousand Great Worlds will still hate me. Their perspective cannot see the battles of the Celestial Court, and even after the disaster, if I explain to them, how can they believe it? You underestimate the heart of hatred of mortal spirits.”

The face of Cixuan Old Immortal changed slightly, and following Xuanyuan Human Venerable’s words, he felt cold in his limbs.

“We are immortal gods; how can we explain everything to mortal spirits in person? Moreover, this is indeed the consequence of the struggles among immortal gods. The suffering mortal spirits will not care who is the instigator. They will continue to hate the immortal gods, and my destiny will only decline until my realm falls. Once the faith in the Celestial Court in the Three Thousand Great Worlds drops to a certain level, Cangtian will erase the Three Thousand Great Worlds.”

“When Taishang set up this situation, no matter what we do, the outcome is already determined.”

By the end, Xuanyuan Human Venerable’s tone became cold, and Cixuan Old Immortal bowed his head.

Once Cangtian decides to erase the Three Thousand Great Worlds, Xuanyuan Human Venerable, who holds the immortal position governing the Three Thousand Great Worlds, will undoubtedly be severely punished.

Cixuan Old Immortal became more and more desperate, feeling utterly hopeless.

For a moment, the hall fell into silence.

…

The Celestial Army led by the Marshal of Heaven continued to sweep across the Great Thousand World, and wherever they passed, nothing could stop them, not even the grand alliance of the Three Thousand Great Worlds stood a chance against them.

Even though they were invincible in battle, the Marshal of Heaven did not speed up, nor would he stop anyone who wanted to escape. He swept through all heavens and myriad realms at his own pace.

Every world they passed became shrouded in darkness, and as the faith in the Heavenly Dao among all living beings grew weaker, the Celestial Dao Light Layer that protected the world also weakened, granting more opportunities for invasion by the Dark Heavenly Court, Chaos Evil Demons, and Yin Ghost Gods.

There were many great powers like Li Ya who, not daring to confront the Celestial Court, chose to save all beings. They began to fight against the Dark Heavenly Court and Chaos Evil Demons, and thus the news of the dark power’s invasion spread in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, leading to more speculation among the various forces.

This catastrophe was not just the Celestial Court targeting the Three Thousand Great Worlds; there might be a greater conspiracy hidden behind it.

Gu An, who had long seen through everything, did not think too much about it. He continued to wander across different worlds, saving suffering souls and plundering the lifespan of evil demons.

The world is cruel, and all beings are miserable. Gu An only saves those within his sight.

A thousand years quickly passed.

This evening, Gu An was walking along the ridge of another Great World, accompanied by the setting sun.

He summoned his attribute panel:

[Name: Gu An]

[Life Span: 160,691,711/45,021,570,356,109,227,345]

[Physique: Creation Essence Body]

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

…

Four hundred fifty quintillion years!

Breaking through to a lifespan of hundreds of quintillions of years did not trigger a new lifespan function, nor did it prompt an upgrade of the lifespan feature.

He didn’t mind this point; just the sight of his lifespan skyrocketing was already a source of joy.

The last breakthrough only took him 22 quintillion years of lifespan, and now it has increased more than two hundredfold, how wealthy!

He felt that he could break through at any time, but at the thought of the Saint Realm, he still felt it was not enough.

Anyway, now it’s still the early stages of the battle between human gods, so he doesn’t have to rush to break through.

Breaking through too early would bring about variables.

Get through this tribulation first, as this calamity wasn’t aimed at him.

Gu An turned his head to look at the distant setting sun, above which the celestial vault was dark blue, and below the setting sun, the land seemed to be under flames, like a line dividing two worlds.

The evil demons in this world were more numerous than in the previous Great World, but since there were many Outer Heaven Cultivators coming to aid and save, he was not in a hurry.

This world had good opportunities and would give birth to an immortal god who passed the Heavenly Dao assessment, just like Li Xuanmiao.

Unfortunately, as the involvement of cause and effect in the Three Thousand Great Worlds increased, his future became fragile, and he was likely to be destroyed along with the Three Thousand Great Worlds, with a destiny to ascend to immortality shattered like a mirage.

Through his cause and effect, Gu An sensed the changes in destiny.

The endless cause and effect made the branches of destiny extend infinitely. The Path of Destiny was more complex than people usually imagined. Those who spied on destiny thought they could see through it. However, as their realms improved, the destinies they saw would keep advancing, indicating that there always existed destiny lines that their current realm couldn’t see.

Gu An wondered if there might be destiny lines even the Supreme Emperor of Ultimate Merging Dao couldn’t see.

In his eyes, the fate of the Three Thousand Great Worlds being wiped out by Cangtian was becoming increasingly clear, signifying that the Three Thousand Great Worlds were on the path to destruction.

Cangtian will not only destroy the Three Thousand Great Worlds but also wipe out the dark creatures roaming within them.

Even if one escapes the Three Thousand Great Worlds, as long as they possess the cause and effect of the Heavenly Dao, it’s difficult to escape.

Gu An wanted to protect the Celestial Spirit Great World, so he must stop Cangtian.

As for Cangtian, it is nothing more than the will of the Celestial Emperor. Facing Cangtian is akin to confronting the Celestial Emperor.

Gu An had already prepared to face the Celestial Emperor.

He decided to break through before Cangtian could destroy the Three Thousand Great Worlds, and he would go deep into the chaos, as far away from the Heavenly Dao as possible.

Gu An’s steps did not stop, and gradually, he returned to the Daoist Field of the Beginningless.

He arrived at the mountain-top courtyard where An Zizai had long been waiting.

“Ancestor, the immortal gods are about to arrive. Wu Xie and the others are preparing to set up a formation in the Outer Heaven. Do you agree?” An Zizai approached and asked.

Gu An replied, “If they wish to go, let them. What is coming is not the true immortal gods.”

“Not the true immortal gods?” An Zizai was puzzled.

“You will understand in the future.”

Gu An left these words and walked towards his room.

An Zizai looked at Gu An’s back, feeling that in the past millennium, the Ancestor had become more mysterious and distant.

Previously, the Ancestor always had a gentle smile, but now his smiles were fewer.

Could it be related to the immortal gods sweeping the Three Thousand Great Worlds?

An Zizai thought inwardly, but he dared not ask more. He turned and left to meet Wu Xie.

The next morning.

Gu An descended the mountain, and Zui had already been waiting for him on the mountain path, quickly bowing to greet him.

“Mm, follow me.”

Gu An responded briefly, prepared to take Zui to a secluded place and teach him the Immortal Emperor’s Eye cultivation.

Meanwhile.

In another corner of the Celestial Spirit Great World, atop the mountains, a black rift appeared in the celestial vault, interwoven with lightning, terrifying and eerie, scaring away the birds in the forest below.

Soon, a figure stepped out of the black rift.

It was a white-haired man, dressed in a white feather robe, wearing a True Dragon Golden Crown and holding a long spear in his hand, the blade resembling a snake. His features were handsome, and his brows exuded an aloof temperament.

He surveyed the heavens and the earth in all directions, his brows furrowed, as if contemplating something.
