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

Chapter 113: Chapter 113: If You're Not Ancestor Xuan Tian, Who Are You?



"Hmph!"

With a cold snort, the man in the purple robe lifted the long spear in his hand and swept it forward. In an instant, a vast surge of Demonic Qi erupted, as if someone had streaked a black ink brush across the canvas of the heavens and earth, spanning the sky.

The three Ji Family Great Cultivators spat blood and were sent flying, their Heavenly Dragon Demon-Suppressing Forms directly annihilated, dissipating like smoke and clouds.

They crashed into the mountains like meteors from Outer Heaven, shaking the earth and sending clouds of dust billowing up.

From the eight directions of heaven and earth, eight Unification Realm Great Cultivators cried out in unison. Behind them hovered eight ancient bronze bells, from which shadows emerged, enveloping a hundred miles around. As they cultivated energy, the shadows of the bells behind them drastically expanded, reaching a thousand feet high, magnificent and domineering.

The eight enormous bell shadows produced a terrifying impact, shaking the space and even causing the firmament to undulate like surging waves.

The man in the purple robe raised his spear to defend, as boundless Spiritual Power exploded around him, forming a powerful storm that resisted the impact of the bell shadows.

Whoosh—

A sound of tearing through the air cut through the mountains at an incredible speed, heading straight for the man in the purple robe, causing his pupils to shrink as he abruptly turned his head to dodge the attack.

It was a Flying Sword, swift as a lightning bolt. The one controlling it was a female Cultivator in a red robe, her hair fluttering wildly, and despite her holy and beautiful face being covered in frost, her eyes were filled with murderous intent towards the man in the purple robe.

Behind the man in the purple robe, a golden circle rose, erupting with ten thousand feet of golden light, powerfully annihilating the bell shadows and causing the mountains within a hundred miles to suffer bombardment, with the earth violently trembling.

Great waves of fire rolled up from the billowing dust, transforming into fire dragons and pouncing toward the man in the purple robe, who merely smiled in disdain.

Suddenly, he turned around and thrust his spear.

Clang—

An earth-shattering collision resounded as the spear struck a three-yard-tall bronze cauldron, intricately carved with mythical beasts, exuding a vast aura. Lv Baitian stood upon the cauldron, lashing out with a palm strike that burst forth like a mountain torrent of Spiritual Power.

The figure of a mystical tortoise emerged upon him, roaring furiously as its terrifying palm winds submerged the man in the purple robe.

Mystic Tortoise Surging Wave Palm!

The palm strike descended from the heavens, breaking through the earth and sweeping across the land, forcing the dust and sand in the atmosphere to part as if it would obliterate the whole world.

With a bang, Lv Baitian and the cauldron were sent flying, with countless needle-fine strands of Spiritual Power piercing into his body, causing his expression to drastically change.

Amidst the rampaging waves of energy, the man in the purple robe stood like a god descending to earth, looking down on everything.

He looked at Lv Baitian and said with an unyielding smile, "At the ninth layer of the Unification Realm, it would be a pity to die, to serve me..."

Before he could finish, he abruptly turned his head.

Not just him, but all the Great Cultivators of the Supreme Sect seemed to sense something and turned to look in the same direction.

Thousands of miles away, on a mountain peak, Su Han stood on a cliff with a sword on his back, gazing into the distance. Sensing the sudden cessation of battle noises, he couldn\'t help but frown, his Divine Sense unable to penetrate to the center of the great battle.

"Could it be that the Supreme Sect has already been defeated?"

Su Han furrowed his brows tightly, his mood complex.

He didn\'t want to lead the way, but Elder Chi Han had singled him out, and without him, there would be others to guide. He had no choice but to come.

In fact, he also bore resentment towards the Supreme Sect.

As an Outer Disciple of the Supreme Sect, when the Sword Sect of the Great Yu Dynasty sought to hunt him down, the Supreme Sect did not protect him but instead forced him to cripple his cultivation, which left him disappointed.

Yet, despite the disappointment, the Supreme Sect was the first Sect of his Immortal Cultivation Path, and he did not wish to see the Supreme Sect destroyed. However, he had to accept it because he had joined the Ephemera Sect, and only the Ephemera Sect in the entire Immortal Cultivation World could accommodate him.

While Su Han was in anguish, a figure streaked over his head.

So fast!

Su Han could not see clearly who had just passed by; he only felt a purple-black shadow flash by, as if it were an illusion.

That figure was none other than Gu An!

How could Su Han detect Gu An with his level of cultivation?

Gu An had deliberately let Su Han see him, intending to scare him away.

This was the last bit of care from a master.

After passing Su Han, Gu An suddenly accelerated, appearing in the sky above the battlefield in a single step.

He stopped at a distance of a hundred feet above the man in the purple robe and immediately sent out a Life Span Detection.

[Golden Spirit Venerable (Mystic Heart Realm Second Layer): 1840/4500/4600]

Getting two or three hundred years of life span, not too bad!

Gu An did not immediately act, but allowed the man in the purple robe and the Great Cultivators of the Supreme Sect to take a good look at him.

"Heaven-Cutting Axe, who are you?" Golden Spirit Venerable furrowed his brows tightly, staring at Gu An, and demanded in a deep voice.

All the Great Cultivators of the Supreme Sect turned their attention to Gu An. Hearing the words "Heaven-Cutting Axe," Ji Hantian who was covered in blood and had just risen, couldn\'t help but cry out in surprise, "Ancestor Xuan Tian?"

Ancestor Xuan Tian!

All the Great Cultivators of the Supreme Sect were moved, even Lv Baitian standing on the cauldron looked incredulously at Ancestor Xuan Tian.

Ancestor Xuan Tian was still alive?

"Impossible, you are not Ancestor Xuan Tian, who are you?" Golden Spirit Venerable stared fixedly at Gu An, unable to see through his true identity, which made him slightly uneasy.

"A thousand years ago, Ancestor Xuan Tian, who had deviated, was slain by our Sect\'s Cultivators, and his head still hangs on the Nine Nether Road. Who are you really, could it be you have obtained the inheritance of the Heaven-Cutting Divine Axe?"

Golden Spirit Venerable pressed, gripping the long spear in his hand tightly, with golden strands of Strength Energy coiling around the spear.

Upon hearing the fate of Ancestor Xuan Tian, the Great Cultivators of the Supreme Sect were enraged, all starting to curse the Ephemera Sect, while Golden Spirit Venerable was unmoved, his gaze fixed intently on Gu An.

Gu An remained silent.

Hmm?

Can\'t pretend to be Ancestor Xuan Tian anymore?

Suddenly!

Golden Spirit Venerable thrust his spear out, and golden light burst forth, making the whole world lose its color. A terrifying pressure followed, unleashing a wild wind that forced the Supreme Sect\'s Great Cultivators to retreat, and the ruins below collapsed once again, as if the apocalypse had arrived.

The scorching golden light caused Lv Baitian\'s skin to start to decompose, startling him into quickly cultivating energy. Not just him, but others did the same.

Fortunately, the golden light came quickly and disappeared just as fast. When the golden light abruptly vanished, everyone fixed their gaze and couldn\'t help but widen their eyes.

Golden Spirit Venerable still maintained his spear-thrusting posture, while the mysterious demon shadow appeared beside him, with the Heaven-Cutting Axe already suspended at his neck.

Golden Spirit Venerable\'s body was stiff, his face full of disbelief.

How is this possible...

That was fast!

He was at the Mystic Heart Realm, yet he couldn\'t catch the opponent\'s speed at all. Most crucially, a suppression force beyond imagination enveloped him, preventing his Spiritual Power from emanating from his body.

This was Gu An\'s Divine Skill, Mystic Yellow Dragon Might!

Mystic Yellow Dragon Might was a Divine Skill realized during the evolution of the Mystic Yellow Dragon Energy Skill, combined with the suppression of the Mahayana Realm\'s Nine Layers. Even Golden Spirit Venerable, who was at the Second Layer of the Mystic Heart Realm, couldn\'t resist at all.

Everyone from the Supreme Sect was suppressed by Gu An, fear enveloping all present.

Those who regained their senses realized that the opponent had deployed the Demon Shadow Divine Skill.

Could Thousand-Autumn Pavilion possess such a Great Power?

Gu An\'s right hand held the axe, suspended over Golden Spirit Venerable\'s neck, while his left hand slowly lifted and slapped away the crown on his head, then grabbed his long hair.

Now, Golden Spirit Venerable looked extremely disheveled, lacking his previous air of untouchability.

"You... The Ephemera Sect Main Lineage will arrive soon, do you really want to stain..." said Golden Spirit Venerable with a trembling voice, his eyes full of fear.

But before he could finish his words, with a "whoosh," Gu An directly chopped off his head.

Blood splattered, and Golden Spirit Venerable\'s eyes bulged!

With a swing of the Heaven-Cutting Axe in Gu An\'s hand, a horrific gust of wind was raised, sweeping across dozens of miles, causing the dust along the way to explode into the air.

Golden Spirit Venerable\'s neck began to burn with blue flames, igniting from the base of the head, creeping up and down his body and neck.

Golden Spirit Venerable let out a deep, hoarse voice as his Primordial Spirit desperately tried to jump out, but couldn\'t leave the body.

With a swoosh!

Gu An let go, taking the Storage Bracelet from the other party, then watched as Taiching True Fire burned Golden Spirit Venerable.

In less than the time of five breaths, Golden Spirit Venerable, with his Spiritual Power scattered, was burned to ashes, leaving only his heart suspended in the air, still beating.

Mystic Heart!

Gu An grabbed the Mystic Heart and tossed it into his Storage Bag.

He turned around, ready to leave.

"Wait, who exactly are you? Are you helping us, or do you have a grudge against the Ephemera Sect? If it\'s the latter, why not join forces? The Nine Nether Road has already opened, and the real calamity is just beginning; we need to unite!" Ji Hantian hastily shouted, the others too looked towards Gu An, uneasy, their eyes filled with hope.

Gu An did not make a sound but instead released his vast Sword Intent. content hosted on m _vlempyr

With Sword Intent unleashed, the world changed colors!

The trembling flowers and trees in the distance all went still.

"Fu... dao..." an elder said with a trembling voice, his face showing surprise and joy.

Before he could finish, Gu An disappeared into the world with a single step.

Ji Hantian stood still in a daze, lost in a stupor.

That Sword Venerable Fudao could kill Golden Spirit Venerable so easily, he thought back to how he had once pursued Sword Venerable Fudao relentlessly...

He was filled with shame and fear.

Lucky that he was one of their own, otherwise he would have been dead by now.

At the same time, an unprecedented curiosity welled up in his heart.

Who exactly was Sword Venerable Fudao?

What was his status in the Supreme Sect?

...

Outer City.

Inside the inn, Shen Zhen was drinking, with Gu An having just left not long ago.

Suddenly, a series of powerful auras burst forth in the city, shaking the entire city. A great battle soon erupted, startling the other disciples in the inn into getting up and leaving.

Shen Zhen looked up, his gaze flicked to the window, and he saw two Cultivators fighting fiercely over the Heavenly Repair Platform, their momentum staggering. More and more Supreme Sect Disciples landed on various rooftops, forming formations to protect the buildings within the city.

"The chaos has begun, interesting."

Shen Zhen, seeing the Outer Sect in disarray, was not at all panicked, but rather interested in watching the battle.

After a while, Gu An ran in hurriedly, saying, "The fight has broken out, why aren\'t you hiding?"

Ephemera Sect spies hidden in the Supreme Sect started to cause trouble, thinking Golden Spirit Venerable had already ended the battle, not knowing that Golden Spirit Venerable was dead.

The following matters could entirely be left to the Supreme Sect, so Gu An was merely pretending to be panicked.

Shen Zhen took out a pen, ink, and paper, and said with a laugh, "Let\'s draw together, see who can do better. If you can satisfy me, I will fulfill any of your desires for herbs."
