Chapter 1066: Excited Master
Gu An turned his head to look at Patriarch Hong Gan, looking him up and down, while he looked sincere and his eyes did not avoid.
No wonder this guy is the only one who survived among the nine great masters of the Great Dao.
In addition to their own qualifications, their temperament is also crucial. Hongyi, Hongyang, Hongyuan, Honglu and Hongxuan are all arrogant and find it difficult to bow their heads. None of them are as flexible as ancestor Honggan.
"Then it depends on your performance."
Gu An said calmly, then retracted his gaze and looked forward.
These words made Patriarch Honggan ecstatic. In his opinion, this was a promise!
"Senior, no, Master, just watch! I will never let you down!"
Patriarch Honggan said in a deep voice. He tried to appear calm, but his eyes betrayed him.
The Great Xuanyin Lord following behind was full of disdain for Ancestor Honggan. Ants are ants, and they will forget their dignity if given a little sweet treat.
"Xuan Yin, do you want to surpass the True Saint Hunyuan Taiyi?"
Gu An's voice suddenly came, and the Great Xuanyin Lord paused when he heard it.
Patriarch Honggan’s eyes widened. Is this the name of the realm of a saint?
No wonder he could easily control the saints, it turned out that he had surpassed the saints!
Patriarch Honggan's excitement was suddenly extinguished. He suddenly felt so insignificant. Thinking back on his calculations and arrogance over the years, it was really ridiculous.
"you……"
The voice of the Great Xuanyin Lord sounded, his tone full of excitement, even more out of control than that of the previous ancestor Honggan.
Gu An raised the corner of his mouth, but did not answer. He raised his hand and a black horse rushed up to the sea of clouds. He jumped up, landed easily on the horse's back, and rode forward.
Ancestor Honggan and Lord Daxuanyin immediately chased after him. This time, Lord Daxuanyin flew even faster than Ancestor Honggan.
…
In the dark Lingxiao Palace, a golden light shone on the high platform, and under the golden light was the figure of the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor of Heaven sat upright on the throne, his hands on his knees, palms facing upwards. Golden lotus illusions continued to emanate from his body, as if golden lotuses were blooming and then disappearing, endlessly.
He has entered the final stage of his journey to become a saint, and the Lingxiao Palace has therefore been closed, so he no longer sees immortals or gods.
Today, the Emperor of Heaven entered a mysterious state. He could see every corner of the heaven and hear the voices of all the immortals and gods.
He felt all kinds of emotions and could immediately tell which immortals and gods had betrayed the Way of Heaven.
He had long been aware of the recent turmoil in Heaven, but he could not figure out the cause and effect behind it. Therefore, he understood that the person who schemed against Heaven must be a saint.
If he wants to break the impasse, it is useless to capture the rebellious gods. Only by becoming a saint can he completely eliminate this cause and effect.
Faced with those slanderous, malicious and questioning voices, the Emperor of Heaven remained calm.
He has long been accustomed to the dangers of the world and the joys and sorrows of the people. The entire way of heaven was opened up by him, and he can look at the people from a higher perspective.
He will not be comforted by those who admire him.
He will not be angry with those who hate him.
In his eyes, everything is just a past that will disappear sooner or later.
The scope of his perception became larger and larger, and endless emotions and voices flooded into his mind, all of which were creatures of the Heavenly Dao.
The process was quick and he did not feel any discomfort at all. Instead, he gained many insights from it.
When his perception range covered the entire Heavenly Dao, he suddenly opened his eyes, stood up, looked back, and saw that his physical body was still sitting on the imperial throne.
He looked towards the main hall. It was still the Lingxiao Palace. The light was dim and very depressing.
His eyes focused on the darkness ahead, and he saw a figure walking towards him.
The figure stopped at the edge of darkness. Its shape could barely be seen, but its true appearance could not be seen clearly.
"Is it your guidance that enabled me to become a saint?" The Emperor of Heaven asked, looking at the figure.
His expression was calm, and he didn't seem surprised to see the other person.
The figure in the darkness replied, "Well, it is true that I am guiding you, but you can choose now."
"What choice?"
"Become a Chaos Sage, or become of the same origin as me."
"What's the difference? Chaos Sages are also attached to chaos, right?"
The Emperor's gaze was deep and his tone was calm.
"There really is no difference. Freedom is always relative."
The voice in the darkness answered in this way, and the Emperor of Heaven's eyes changed subtly.
The Emperor was silent for a moment, then asked, "I just want to ask you one question: where are you from?"
"As you thought, I do come from outside of Chaos."
"Then I choose to be your saint. After all, my sainthood was bestowed by you, and I should repay you."
After the Emperor of Heaven made his choice, he was visibly relieved and even smiled.
"Why do you dare to believe me?"
The figure in the darkness asked, his tone indifferent.
The Emperor of Heaven smiled and said, "I was wary of you at first, but your actions are worthy of my trust. I have journeyed through the Chaos and opened up the Heavenly Dao. I do not believe others' words, nor do I judge based on their inner thoughts. I only trust their actions. You possess strength far exceeding mine. If you wanted to harm me, you could have done it long ago. Your kindness to mortal spirits is enough to prove that you possess the great goodness that the Heavenly Dao desires."
He created the way of heaven, and the rules of heaven are the result of his will. All living beings desire goodness, and that is what he thinks in his heart.
From his perspective, the stronger the Heavenly Dao is, the stronger he will be, so he hopes that all people will unite and work together to promote the Heavenly Dao. However, human hearts are complicated, and rather than uniting, those powerful people would rather concentrate resources in their own hands to make themselves stronger.
The development of the Heavenly Dao exceeded the expectations of the Emperor of Heaven, so he had to design so many plans to eliminate the immortals and forces that affected the unity of the Heavenly Dao.
The figure in the darkness fell into silence.
The Emperor of Heaven was not in a hurry and waited for the other party's answer.
After a while.
The figure walked out of the darkness, it was Gu An.
The Emperor looked at Gu An with a subtle look.
This was the first time they really met.
The Emperor of Heaven was certain that the opponent he encountered in reincarnation was Gu An's incarnation. Because of this, he felt relieved.
It is not shameful to lose to a saint.
If he were to lose to a creature of the Heavenly Dao, he would not be able to accept it, just like he would not allow himself to lose to his own child.
"In that case, I will do as you wish."
Gu An looked at the Emperor of Heaven and said so. As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves at the Emperor of Heaven, and a gust of wind blew towards the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor's eyes widened and his face was enveloped in a strong light.
…
In the mountains and fields, Gu An rode a black horse with a wine jug in his hand. Ancestor Hong Gan walked in front, pulling a hemp rope, while the Great Xuanyin Lord carried a shoulder pole with heavy bags hanging on both ends.
The forests were sparse, the sun shone through, and the wind was like a heat wave.
At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened. Patriarch Honggan looked up and saw rolling thunderclouds sweeping in, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.
