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

After bidding farewell to Bai Ziya, Gu An took a detour, only then returning to the Third Medicine Valley.

He finished writing the current secret book, then went downstairs to join the disciples in shoveling snow.

During the process of shoveling snow, his thoughts were constantly in Outer Heaven.

When would those wandering cultivators of the Holy Court disperse?

They couldn't stop Gu An, he was just worried that the noise from his breakthrough would be too loud and attract them near the Life Span Barrier. What if someone intruded?

Gu An didn't want to make unnecessary enemies with the Holy Court, nor did he want anyone to discover his true cultivation level.

He could only wait.

As winter passed and spring arrived, the years went by.

The news of Sword Venerable Fudao's world-saving feats spread widely across this region of the Mortal World, earning more and more praises, and his fame spread throughout the Great Heaven and Earth.

Relative to the tumultuous seas, the continent quickly calmed down since they had heard of Sword Venerable Fudao's feats not for the first time.

However, a change in the dynamics occurred in the Human Race's world. The forces that had fled returned but could no longer maintain their former dominance, while those who stayed behind gained more support and developed rapidly.

The other continent on the Nine Nether Road was even more dangerous. The sects and families of the Taicang Dynasty couldn't secure a footing there, and the fleeing forces returned in disgrace within a few years.

Jiang Qiong also returned to the Juhua Sect, beginning to develop the sect peacefully.

Gu An's days returned to being leisurely.

Before he knew it, ten years had passed.

The wandering cultivators of the Holy Court outside heaven finally dispersed, and Gu An was waiting for this day.

He immediately set off, leaving quietly.

In just one step, he reached the depths of the universe, flying towards a location he had chosen long ago.

It was a gigantic meteorite, even larger than the continent where the Supreme Sect was located.

Gu An landed on the meteorite. Looking around, the Great Heavenly Spirit Land seemed very distant. Reckoned for a Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal, it would also be impossible to spy with the naked eye.

Turning around, the universe's depths behind him were extremely dark. From here to the Silent Destruction Domain was closer than to the Great Heavenly Spirit Land.

This was also intentional on his part, to make the Holy Court think that the anomalies were caused by a Heavenly Demon.

He sat down on the spot, activating the Life Span Barrier.

He then pulled up his Attribute Panel.

[Name: Gu An]

[Life Span: 220/639,660,342]

[Physique: Primordial Ultimate Body]

[Cultivation Level: Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma Realm Ninth Layer]

...

This life span was truly a delight to behold.

He had to be more careful about this breakthrough; the last time he crossed the Life Span Barrier he had consumed tens of millions of years of life span, a figure that could not be ignored.

Gu An took a deep breath, deciding to directly aim for a breakthrough in cultivation level.

Tribulation every three hundred thousand years, still quite frightening.

One billion, get on board!

[You practiced Qi Absorption Cultivation for three hundred thousand years. With the Great Accomplishment of the Infinitive Creation Dharma, you forcefully struck at the Divine Thought True Immortal Realm, began facing the tribulation. You failed to endure forty-nine Heavenly Dao Mysterious Void Tribulations, and the tribulation failed]

[You practiced Qi Absorption Cultivation for six hundred thousand years. With the Great Accomplishment of the Infinitive Creation Dharma, you forcefully struck at the Divine Thought True Immortal Realm, began facing the tribulation. You failed to endure forty-nine Heavenly Dao Mysterious Void Tribulations, and the tribulation failed]

...

Gu An remained expressionless, already used to failure.

No matter, he still had five billion years; he didn't believe they could drain him completely!

However, something terrible happened.

When his tribulation failures exceeded a hundred times, his expression became grave.

When his tribulation failures exceeded two hundred times, his expression became ugly.

When one billion years were all used up, he was on the verge of a breakdown.

What was this Heavenly Dao forty-nine Mysterious Void Tribulation?

Was it this absurd?

Once Gu An successfully broke through, he must investigate the origin of this heavenly tribulation.

Even within the same realm, heavenly tribulations are not fixed. Taking Mortal World Peak, for instance, their recorded types of heavenly tribulations exceeded ten thousand.

The rule summarized by the Immortal Cultivation World is that the more powerful you are within the same realm, the more terrifying the heavenly tribulation. However, those cultivators, despite an increased difficulty in their tribulation, could rely on formations, Dharma treasures, and Sect teachings for support.

Gu An could only rely on himself, owning no Dharma treasures.

After a full aspect promotion, he himself was terrifyingly strong; how could such a him fail more than three hundred times?

Gu An gritted his teeth, choosing to commit thirty million years of life span!

From one billion to thirty million, it wasn't that he was frightened; he just felt he was close to succeeding and didn't want to waste life span.

However...

All failed again!

Gu An's eyes began to redden; he couldn't believe it!

Another thirty million years!

Dare to consume five hundred million years!

When Gu An's thoughts settled, he still failed.

Another thirty million years!

Failed!

Failed!

Failed!

Just as Gu An was preparing to continue investing, the prompt finally changed its length.

He succeeded!

[You practiced Qi Absorption Cultivation for two billion three hundred thirty million years, with the Great Accomplishment of the Infinitive Creation Dharma you forcefully struck at the Divine Thought True Immortal Realm, began facing the tribulation, and you endured the forty-nine Heavenly Dao Mysterious Void Tribulations, tribulation succeeded, and your cultivation level broke through to the first layer of Divine Thought True Immortal Realm]

[You practiced Qi Absorption Cultivation for two hundred sixty million years, your cultivation level rose to the second layer of Divine Thought True Immortal Realm]

[You practiced Qi Absorption Cultivation for three hundred million years, your cultivation level was enhanced]

Four million years to not break through a minor realm?

Is Divine Thought True Immortal that exaggerated?

Feeling spiritual energy flowing into his body, Gu An hurriedly continued to invest life span.

Third layer!

Fourth layer!

He must reach the ninth layer to feel at ease!

Eventually, he spent another fifty-four million years of life span and finally reached the ninth layer of Divine Thought True Immortal Realm.

The mighty spiritual energy surged into his body, its scale far surpassing that when breaking through the Dao Void Mysterious Immortal Realm. Not only that, he found himself also absorbing the universal laws pervading the cosmos!

He immediately closed his eyes to meticulously experience it.

As he closed his eyes, the universal laws became clear, those laws falling and then vanishing into thin air, finally appearing imperceptibly inside the Life Span Barrier.

Soon, Gu An noticed a divine sense sweeping over from the Silent Destruction Domain.

It was the Carefree Primordial Immortal!

As time passed, the noise from the breakthrough grew louder, attracting more and more divine senses, with the lowest being at the Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal Realm.

After 30 minutes, Gu An sensed the divine sense of a Divine Immortal of Wondrous Dharma.

Fortunately, those guys didn't dare show themselves yet, only daring to hide and use divine sense to spy!

About half an Ancient Hour passed.

Gu An suddenly sensed something, subconsciously opened his eyes, and then his eyes widened.

He saw a pair of eyes appearing in the cosmic darkness, ordinary human race eyes, just like a mortal's, except the gaze was very detached.

These eyes were large, with the stars and continents of the universe completely tiny like dust before them.

Gu An felt as though he was being watched by the other, which made him feel uneasy.

Could the Life Span Barrier have been seen through?

After a while, the pupils of those eyes finally shifted away.

Gu An breathed a sigh of relief, daring to play such a dirty trick?

Thinking I would be scared to jump out and beg for mercy?

Unbearable!

Just then, he finally succeeded in his breakthrough, and a stream of memories began flowing into his mind, all about Divine Thought True Immortal!

Divine Thought True Immortal, divine sense transformed into divine thought, with immensely powerful thoughts that could kill enemies or cast spells through thought alone!

True Immortal, then, is a true Immortal!

His flesh and spirit underwent another transformation, and once completed, he would be an Immortal conforming to the heavenly creation, not one just enhanced through cultivation.

Gu An's consciousness immersed in the legacy memories, he saw many images.

He could peer into the past lives of any beings that had a karmic connection with him, a very peculiar feeling.

However, he couldn't see Ji Xiaoyu's past life; he could only start from where Ji Xiaoyu was born in this life.

The most surprising thing for him was that he could even peek into the lives of beings with karmic ties established with Chu Lu and Xiao Shengtian.

If so, doesn't this prove that Reincarnation Evolution could really turn into reality?

This led Gu An into endless conjecture.

He was immersed in the karmic images, unable to extricate himself, not feeling the slightest discomfort but rather a kind of indescribable ease.

Peering into karma, his mind was filled with countless images, yet it felt as exhilarating as Qi Absorption Cultivation, making him even more invigorated.

By the time Gu An successfully broke through to the Divine Thought True Immortal Realm, he was still in those images.

Cultivation continued to break through!

From the first layer to the second layer!

From the second layer to the third layer!

Gradually, powerful beings began passing by this area, sweeping over the meteorite where he was located!
