Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses-Chapter 610 - 603: Celestial Court Mythology

Chapter 610 -603: Celestial Court Mythology

Tian Hao’s meteoric rise brought unprecedented morale to the Qiankun Sect, his thousand-year journey as a Wandering Immortal shook both the past and the present, spreading the sect’s name far and wide.

Over the long years, many came to recruit Tian Hao, including members of the Dao Court, but these endeavors always amounted to nothing. There were also geniuses who challenged Tian Hao, all of whom were defeated.

In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years passed.

In the Dao Court, within Xiao Lan’s Cave Heaven Dojo—

By a mountain stream, Xiao Lan, who had just broken through to the Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal Realm, was discussing its power with Gu An.

The two sat cross-legged on a huge boulder, a small table placed between them with fine wine and Spirit Fruit upon it.

As Xiao Lan shared her experiences and pondered the True Meaning of Heaven and Earth, she was unaware that the person before her, whom she held dear, was merely an avatar.

Gu An’s gaze subtly shifted, and his true self replaced the avatar.

He had just returned from collecting Medicinal Herbs at the Mountain God Temple on Tai Cang Continent, feeling pleased.

He called up his Attribute Panel and began to admire it:

[Name: Gu An]

[Life Span: 45,402/760,382,411,523]

[Physique: Primordial Reincarnation Undying Body]

[Cultivation Level: Heaven-Opening Daluo Immortal Realm Perfection]

…

The One Trillion Years of Life were drawing ever closer!

Gu An liked this peaceful and tranquil life, devoid of external foes, yet his life span continued to grow steadily.

For him, the life span digits were like the experience bar in a video game.

Xiao Lan picked up a cup of wine, drank it down in one gulp, and said, “Many peerless geniuses have emerged in the world. The current top genius is not from the Dao Court but from a sect known as the Qiankun Sect. His name is Tian Hao, a name as audacious as the heavens themselves. Yet his breakthrough speed is truly inconceivable. He seems to be just over eleven thousand years old and has already achieved the Cultivation Level of a Carefree Primordial Immortal.”

Upon mentioning Tian Hao, her face showed her deep emotions.

Gu An laughed and said, “You aren’t doing too badly either. The path of Immortal Cultivation isn’t about who’s faster, but who lives longer.”

Xiao Lan shook her head and chuckled, feeling that Gu An didn’t recognize the terror of Tian Hao.

She changed the subject, “Recently, there’s been widespread talk of Heavenly Dao and the appearance of many mythical narratives, claiming that beyond our world exist more powerful Immortal Gods from the Celestial Court…”

The myths of the Celestial Court indeed spread throughout the world, backed by the efforts of Dao Immortals and the meddling of the Deity of the Moon.

As more and more beings became aware of these myths, the Celestial Dao Destiny within the world began to rise noticeably, and the Celestial Dao Light Layer above the Celestial Spirit Great World grew increasingly bright.

This also made Gu An realize something, despite the difference between Immortals and mortals, the Celestial Court did want all beings to be aware of their existence.

In the currently circulating myths of the Celestial Court, the most formidable was the Profound Star Immortal Monarch. He was omnipotent, creating heavens and earth, could hear the hearts of all living beings, and could save them from their suffering.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

The Profound Star Immortal Monarch was the master of the Deity of the Moon, who was zealously crafting the Immortal Monarch’s image.

Gu An had an impression of this Immortal God; before the reconstruction of the world, this god’s followers roamed the Human World, widely spreading his name. This resulted in many ancient texts written by old believers, allowing descendants to learn of history and further believe in these myths.

It is worth mentioning that many imperial dynasties in the Human World have faith in the Profound Star Immortal Monarch and have even established a destiny connection with it.

For example, Li Xuandao of the Tai Cang Dynasty was the earliest person to receive the power of the Profound Star Immortal Monarch, which occurred in the previous Era.

Gu An had never interfered with this matter because, in his view, everyone has their own fortunes, and he preferred to observe the development of all things from the sidelines.

Xiao Lan could not comprehend the existence of Immortal Gods. In her opinion, those with Great Power from the Dao Court were already the strongest beings, how could there be Immortal Gods even more powerful than them?

Having reached the Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal Realm, she felt almost omnipotent and even wanted to venture to Outer Heaven. It was hard for her to imagine just how powerful the mythical Immortal Gods, if they truly existed, would be.

Xiao Lan began to conspire, suspecting that there were forces beneath the heavens harboring the intent to subvert the Dao Court.

The Dao Court is the common master of the world, equivalent to the Heavenly Dao, and essentially assumes the role of Immortal Gods, making rules for heaven and earth. Now that all beings are aware that there are even more formidable Immortal Gods above the Dao Court, what should they think of the Dao Court?

Gu An did not pay much attention to Xiao Lan’s thoughts; everyone has a perspective, and Xiao Lan, now situated within the Dao Court, would naturally consider its interests.

“The world is still too vast, and the Dao Court has not fully unified heaven and earth,” Gu An sighed.

Xiao Lan picked up the liquor bottle and, while pouring Gu An a drink, asked, “Why is it always me talking? Brother Gu, don’t you have any questions, or is there something you desire? I can help you obtain it now.”

Gu An replied with a smile, “Don’t worry about me. I was originally just an ordinary person. To have come this far, I’m already very satisfied. I know what you’re worried about. I have not lost my freedom. While you’ve been in seclusion, I often went out for a walk. I’ve made quite a few friends in the Dao Court. I’m truly content, and my greatest joy is hearing others marvel at your prowess—it makes me proud as well.”

Xiao Lan was deeply touched by his words. She put down the liquor bottle, rose involuntarily, then moved closer to Gu An, looking at him with affection.

Xiao Lan held Gu An’s hand. He didn’t refuse, watching her slowly lean closer to him.

When Xiao Lan’s face obscured the lower half of Gu An’s face, his eyes looked up to the heavens.

At that moment, Li Ya was being intercepted by the Deity of the Moon.

…

Wave after wave crashed onto the beach. Dressed in black, Li Ya frowned deeply, staring coldly at the Deity of the Moon who was blocking his path.

“What exactly do you want?” Li Ya asked bluntly, his right hand resting on the hilt of his sword at his waist.

The Deity of the Moon smiled and said, “Your fate has deviated from the trajectory that the Heavenly Dao had laid out for you. It seems you’ve had the help of a noble person, and not only that, but this change is ongoing. In the future, you might even form a connection with Immortal Gods. Although I’m not sure which Immortal God it is, a bit of Immortal Fate has indeed touched you.”

Li Ya scoffed disdainfully and retorted, “What about you? Are you one of those sanctimonious Taoists who espouse the Heavenly Dao and the Celestial Court? I don’t believe in immortals, and I don’t believe in gods.”

If there truly were Immortal Gods, how could this world have suffered so many tribulations, and each time, it must rely on his Junior Brother Gu to save the day?

If there truly were Immortal Gods, then it could only be Junior Brother Gu.

The nature of Junior Brother Gu would not allow others to sing his praises.
