Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses-Chapter 749 - 741: Zhang Buku’s Obsession

Chapter 749 -741: Zhang Buku’s Obsession

“That evil intention claims to be the Celestial Emperor. He is weary of everything he has created and hostile towards everything he possesses. He even wants to destroy the Heavenly Dao itself. Such malice makes me feel terrified even now. If this evil intention truly comes from the Celestial Emperor, it will be an unimaginable catastrophe…”

Fairy Yaoxuan spoke, her eyebrows furrowed, her eyes filled with worry.

She had seen Immortal Gods and heard of myths about the Celestial Emperor. In the mythology of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, the Celestial Emperor is a supreme existence. Some myths say the Celestial Emperor is the Creator Giant God of everything.

In any myth, the Celestial Emperor is a top existence that cultivators can only look up to.

Gu An did not doubt Fairy Yaoxuan’s words; instead, he found them plausible.

The Celestial Emperor has been invincible for too many years, and the position of the Celestial Court is unshakable. Absolute power plus endless lifespan means he will get used to everything and everyone, and after getting used to them comes weariness, and further, it might lead to hostility.

Thinking about it now, the Celestial Emperor overlooks the conflict of the Sons of Heaven, perhaps just for amusement.

Gu An could foresee the direction of the Sons of Heaven’s conflict; how much more could the Celestial Emperor?

Knowing there was calamity, the Celestial Emperor still did not show up. Perhaps in the eyes of the Celestial Emperor, the calamity for all living beings was just a bit of fun.

Of course, Gu An found it possible, but until he saw the Celestial Emperor in person, he would not make any judgment about him.

“Why worry about things that have not yet happened? Even if it’s true, what can you and I do?”

Gu An looked at Fairy Yaoxuan, trying to comfort her.

Xuan Qi Primordial Immortal can see a very distant future but cannot see the end of the Heavenly Dao, nor judge the fate of the Great Dao.

Fairy Yaoxuan stared at Gu An, saying, “You once pursued the Path of Cause and Effect. Now your cultivation level is profound and unfathomable, yet you hide in this little world. Isn’t it because you fear the Celestial Court?”

Listening to Shen Zhen, the Emperor of Eternal Life was once hunted by Immortal Gods and ultimately sacrificed himself into the Great Cause and Effect Stele. In Fairy Yaoxuan’s view, these events contributed to the present-day Gu An.

The Emperor of Eternal Life was so spirited, never knowing fear, acting bravely, even recklessly.

Clearly, after entering the Great Cause and Effect Stele, the Emperor of Eternal Life did not die, but because of the Immortal Gods, he began to hide his identity, cultivating in a little world until now. After achieving great cultivation, he saved her immediately.

Because of this, Fairy Yaoxuan would not expose Gu An’s disguise. Since Gu An feared the Immortal Gods, why create trouble? She only needed to inform him about the Celestial Court.

Gu An listened to Fairy Yaoxuan’s inner thoughts, feeling quite helpless.

Really good at imagination!

Gu An solemnly said, “I have no grievances with the Celestial Court. No matter what you imagine, it’s wrong. I enjoy my current life; I am not a combative person.”

Fairy Yaoxuan responded, “I also focus on cultivation, enjoying the current life. If you want to learn about the Celestial Court, I have more information to share.”

“Well, that’s not impossible…”

Gu An pondered. He couldn’t deduce the evil intention Fairy Yaoxuan felt within the Path of Cause and Effect; it could only be explained by her or recalled.

Fairy Yaoxuan smiled upon hearing this.

…

Above the sea of clouds, the Celestial Calming God walked ahead, followed by nine heavenly soldiers, including Zhang Buku and Xu You.

Millions of years passed, and the demeanor of Zhang Buku and Xu You had undergone drastic changes, now possessing the demeanor of heavenly soldiers.

Zhang Buku was communicating with Xu You, curious about whom they were to meet this time.

“Probably going to meet the Star Monarch or Immortal Monarch.”

Xu You responded through transmission, hearing Zhang Buku’s eyes filled with curiosity.

He had just begun to understand the Celestial Court, captivated by its hierarchical ranks.

Since he aimed to ascend, he must strive upwards!

If he could meet the Star Monarch or Immortal Monarch, that would be ideal.

Of course, he was merely thinking. He currently lacked the qualifications to converse with the Star Monarch, let alone to meet the Immortal Monarch.

“No matter whom we meet later, you must kneel. Understand?”

The Celestial Calming God’s voice came from the front, stern.

“Understood!”

The nine heavenly soldiers responded in unison. This was the tacit understanding that had developed over millions of years of living together, and the Celestial Calming God’s words also made them nervous.

After walking for one stick of incense time, the Celestial Calming God suddenly knelt down. The nine heavenly soldiers quickly followed, kneeling in a row behind him.

Zhang Buku scanned the front. The boundless sea of clouds was vast and magnificent; there was not even a single building, let alone any sign of other Immortal Gods.

Where is the Star Monarch?

Zhang Buku was filled with confusion. At this moment, an awe-inspiring Celestial might descended, causing the heavenly soldiers’ expressions to change.

They all looked up, their eyes wide, mouths agape.

A giant golden mountain descended from the sky, bringing an overwhelming presence, smashing onto the sea of clouds, creating waves of air current.

In front of this golden mountain, the nine heavenly soldiers felt their Qi-Blood vibrate, their hearts oppressed.

Before they could think further, another golden mountain descended from the sky, followed by more golden mountains after it.

Boom! Boom! Boom…

The world roared, trembling continuously as the golden mountains stacked together, quickly forming a Heavenly Ascension Stairs, leading upwards indefinitely. Even though the nine heavenly soldiers had reached the Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal Realm, they could not see the highest point.

“The Heavenly Ascension Stairs is the only road to the Heavenly Realm; even Celestial Gods are not privileged to step on it. Each stair holds immense Celestial might, making it impossible to force through.”

Xu You’s voice transmitted to Zhang Buku’s ears.

Zhang Buku dumbly stared at the Heavenly Ascension Stairs, his heart shocked, his mind blank.

The other seven heavenly soldiers felt similarly. They had never seen such a breathtaking scene before, with the Celestial might making their souls tremble, inducing an urge to bow.

When the roar faded, Zhang Buku came to his senses.

He saw a radiant light appear at the top of the Heavenly Ascension Stairs, resembling a sun hanging above it. A figure slowly emerged from within, walking down the stairs.

He couldn’t see the true form of the figure, but his heartbeat echoed like war drums.

A sudden determination arose within him.

He wanted to ascend the Heavenly Ascension Stairs!

He wanted to become a true Immortal God!

He wanted to stand in the Heavenly Realm, looking down upon All Heavens and Myriad Realms!

His desire to ascend to immortality became unprecedentedly strong.

The Celestial Calming God looked up silently, waiting for the Immortal God to come down.

The mysterious Immortal God did not walk fast. As he passed more stairs, his form became immense, like the Creator Giant God from Outer Heaven descending to the Human World, bringing immense pressure to the nine heavenly soldiers.

“I am Yin Xuan Immortal Monarch. Are you the Celestial Calming God?”

A cold voice descended from the sky. Hearing this, the Celestial Calming God quickly responded, “I am the Celestial Calming God. What does the Immortal Monarch command?”

His body was taut, seemingly not expecting to meet an Immortal Monarch.
