Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses-Chapter 741 - 733: The Unfathomable Wushi
Chapter 741 -733: The Unfathomable Wushi
Emperor Tianhong’s departure caused quite a stir within Wushi. After all, he was the only one who could compete with An Xin and the Blood Prison Great Saint; not even Lv Xian could surpass him.
Gu An did not hide his true origin either. He revealed his identity as an Immortal God, allowing Wushiji disciples to formally come into contact with the Celestial Court, a time-honored ruler standing upon the Three Thousand Great Dao.
Immortal God reincarnation!
Second-generation and Third-generation disciples were stunned, and An Xin shared her knowledge of the Celestial Court with them, ensuring a deeper understanding.
Knowing that some Wushiji disciples had ascended to immortality, the disciples within the dojo were even more thrilled. They felt that Wushi was omnipotent, capable of achieving immortality and roaming the heavens.
At the same time, they began to speculate more about Gu An.
Even after millions of years of cultivation within Wushi, no one knew Gu An’s origins, including An Xin and Celestial Demon Child.
Gu An could hear the disciples’ conjectures about him. He did not care; however, the more the disciples revered him, the better it was. At the very least, it prevented any chaos.
After Emperor Tianhong’s departure, An Xin approached Gu An again, asking whether to open the sect widely, but Gu An refused.
However, he did ease a bit, allowing disciples to take on apprentices. From the second generation and onward, each disciple could only take one apprentice, and should the apprentice commit evil, the master would also be held accountable.
One person taking one apprentice seemed like a small number, but generations down the line, Wushi was bound to grow stronger.
Shortly after Gu An eased up, within less than ten years, the first Fourth-generation disciple was born.
Gu An was indifferent to the Fourth-generation disciples and did not visit them in person. He prepared to hand over the major responsibilities to An Xin, preferring not to bother with trivial matters.
An Xin did not monopolize authority; instead, she let her eldest disciple, An Zizai, manage many affairs.
An Zizai often sighed, bearing the name Zizai (Free), yet he did not feel free.
Of course, he was merely expressing himself. He was quite satisfied with his current life, having found his own worth.
Wushi was gradually becoming stronger, and the world’s various sects were doing the same. Observing the sects gave insight into the entire world, as the Celestial Spirit Great World was also rapidly developing.
With the assistance of Immortal Gods and guidance from Primordial Dao Emperor, the Great Thousand World’s celestial fortunes naturally soared.
Thirty thousand years passed.
Compared to the rapidly changing outside world, the transformations within Nine Spirit Continent were not as swift.
On this day, early in the morning.
Two figures passed through layers of mist, entering Nine Spirit Continent—they were Li Ya and Li Xianyou.
Li Ya was still dressed in black, his long hair tied behind him, with two strands framing his face. The gentle breeze caused his robe to flutter constantly, yet his stance remained as unyielding as a mountain.
Li Xianyou’s aura, though not as dominant as his master’s, exuded the demeanor of a great power. Compared to his last visit, he now bore the aura of hardships, suggesting he had endured more trials than Li Ya.
“Such dense spiritual energy, far surpassing before. Looking across the world, not even the grotto heavens of the nine major sects can match this,”
Li Ya remarked, feeling a bit nervous at the thought of meeting Gu An soon.
Li Xianyou nodded, about to respond when a brilliant light swiftly approached from the horizon. As the light dispersed, two figures appeared.
It was An Xin and Li Xuanyu.
“Sister!”
Li Ya exclaimed in joy. He had worried about Li Xuanyu, but seeing her here eased his mind considerably.
He instantly noticed that Li Xuanyu had also achieved the status of Free Immortal, making him marvel at the remarkable fortunes of Junior Brother Gu’s dojo.
The Li Family produced two Free Immortals, enough to soar to great heights. Yet, both of these Free Immortals were not in the Tai Cang Dynasty.
Li Xuanyu was equally delighted to see Li Ya and immediately approached him.
Li Ya did not act impolitely; he first greeted An Xin and introduced his apprentice.
“Your apprentice is quite remarkable, having already reached the cultivation level of Free Immortal.” Li Xuanyu praised as she examined Li Xianyou.
An Xin was not surprised. She had sensed it when Li Xianyou last visited; at that time, he had already achieved Free Immortal status.
Li Xianyou’s cultivation speed was undoubtedly top-tier, causing An Xin to suspect that he had received guidance from their master.
She knew that their master often kept an eye on Li Ya, possibly aiding him secretly.
“He is indeed promising, but the path ahead is long for him as a Free Immortal.” Li Ya smiled.
The four then flew towards Wushi while chatting, mostly Li Ya and Li Xuanyu conversing.
Li Xuanyu expressed, “You remain the same, always stirring things up. Compared to you, my experiences are quite dull, having mainly cultivated within the dojo.”
Li Ya shook his head, “Though you stayed here, your cultivation level is not inferior to mine.”
Despite his words, Li Ya did not consider Li Xuanyu to be his opponent.
On the contrary, he was curious about An Xin’s strength.
In his perception, An Xin’s cultivation was unfathomable, with her gaze making him feel uneasy.
He suspected that An Xin had surpassed the Free Immortal level.
If that were true, it would be extraordinary.
An Xin, as his junior, had surpassed him.
Back in Supreme Sect, apart from being Gu An’s disciple, An Xin was nothing remarkable in his eyes. Who would have thought that, from Supreme Sect, An Xin could reach this level?
As they flew, passing through the cities, Li Ya was amazed by the spiritual aura of the beings along the way.
All the beings here were engaging in immortal cultivation, and their levels were substantial. Nearly every city contained individuals surpassing Celestial and Earthly Immortals, a foundation unmatched by the nine major sects.
Li Xianyou also marveled silently. Compared to his last visit, the continent had transformed significantly, even giving him the illusion that this was the real center of the Celestial Spirit Great World.
When the master-apprentice duo saw the cloud-enwrapped Wanjie Gate, they were even more astounded.
Li Xianyou had seen it before but from a distance; being closer allowed him to truly feel Wanjie Gate’s vast aura, inspiring a sense of reverence.
An Xin noticed Li Ya’s astonishment and explained the origins and uses of Wanjie Gate. After understanding, Li Ya was even more impressed with Junior Brother Gu’s Dao practice.
Just how strong was Junior Brother Gu?
He realized that the higher his own cultivation level, the greater the gap became between him and Junior Brother Gu.
He did not feel disheartened because he knew it’s not that his strength didn’t grow fast enough, but the original gap was huge; now he could see it more clearly.
The four did not pause, and amidst Li Ya’s continuous marveling, they finally reached the core dojo of Wushi.
He could sense an invisible, immense barrier separating the outside world. Stepping inside, the overwhelming Dao intent flooded towards him, filling him with an exhilarated sensation.
“Li Ya, you rascal, you’re still alive?”
A cheerful laugh rang out. Li Ya turned to see a middle-aged man standing under a tree in the forest below, gazing up at them.
Supreme Sect’s Zuo Yijian!
He was here too!
Li Ya was once again shocked because Zuo Yijian had also reached Zi Zai Immortal Realm.
This…
