Chapter 1088 - 1079: Annihilating the Holy Dao



Chapter 1088: Chapter 1079: Annihilating the Holy Dao

The Celestial Court has fallen into chaos, which inevitably affects all heavens and myriad realms. The destiny of the heavenly dao in various worlds has become weakened, allowing demons and ambitious individuals from all realms to cause trouble. The battle of sages has not yet ended, and the three thousand great worlds have already entered a period of turbulence.

Gu An did not participate in any conflicts, still wandering the Human World with the Great Profound Yin Dominator.

The Dao Universe is expanding infinitely. Ever since the Celestial Emperor achieved sainthood, the heavenly dao has transformed into the Dao Universe, which is continuously expanding. Every so often, new worlds are born, these new worlds are nurtured by the creations of the heavenly dao, teeming with life, and before the path of cultivating immortality arrived, all living beings lived a life of survival of the fittest.

The Great Profound Yin Dominator followed behind the black horse. From afar, he saw behind the distant mountains two enormous fierce beasts engaged in battle, relying solely on their physical bodies, primitive and savage.

“This world intends to birth order, but it will take many years.”

The Great Profound Yin Dominator spoke, his tone filled with contemplation. For original chapters go to novelfire(.)net

In his view, the evolution of the heavenly dao is too fast, far exceeding the pace of his Dao Universe’s expansion.

Gu An sat on the horseback, swaying with the horse’s movements, he said leisurely: “Indeed, it requires many years, but the seeds of order have been planted and are beginning to sprout.”

As his words fell, the surrounding world suddenly changed, and they found themselves in a field, with farmland on both sides, and in the distance, rolling mountains could be seen.

The Great Profound Yin Dominator was already accustomed to Gu An’s methods. Initially, he would ponder over it, thinking these were not ordinary translocation means. Unfortunately, he couldn’t decipher them and had to give up.

This land is located on the edge of the heavenly dao, a world born after the Celestial Emperor became a saint. Here, spiritual energy is sparse, all beings belong to the stage of mortal spirit. As a result, the turmoil of the Celestial Court has no impact here. Those mighty beings are not interested in this land with thin spiritual energy, only occasionally, lights appear in the sky, triggering wild imaginations among all living beings.

“What’s the current situation of the battle between the Celestial Emperor and the Saint Venerable of Punishment?”

The Great Profound Yin Dominator asked again, heaven’s one day is earth’s one year, since the saints’ battle began, he had been wandering the Human World with Gu An for a hundred years.

He could see the situation in the Celestial Court remained tense, Immortal Gods establishing bases in higher heavens, yet the invaders kept increasing. The influence of Luoxu Saint Dao is far beyond just within the Celestial Court, it infiltrated various domains of the heavenly dao, many cultivators enduring hardship were guided by Luoxu Saint Dao, believing it to be their hope, and overturning the Celestial Court meant overturning decaying old powers for them, they were changing the heavenly dao, they were saviors.

The differing ideologies drove both camps into a frenzy, and no one chose to negotiate peace.

In their hearts, they believed themselves to be on the side of justice, not susceptible to bow down to evil.

The Great Profound Yin Dominator found this phenomenon very interesting. He invades Dao Universe single-handedly, never mingling in schemes like these. The past him would disdain it, but he would now consider how much benefit this strategy could bring.

“It’s almost ending.”

Gu An casually replied, his gaze looking to an old farmer working in the fields, beside him sat two children, a boy and a girl, seemingly only five or six years old, conversing with the farmer sporadically.

“Will you make a move?” The Great Profound Yin Dominator persisted in asking.

“I will.”

Hearing this answer didn’t surprise the Great Profound Yin Dominator, though he sighed for the Saint Venerable of Punishment’s fate.

“Although the Saint Venerable of Punishment possesses immense divine skills, sadly, he can’t fathom the depths of the heavenly dao’s water.” The Great Profound Yin Dominator mused, contemplating his own choices.

“Then you’ve misunderstood, the Saint Venerable of Punishment was defeated, it’s just that the Celestial Emperor can’t stop him.”

Gu An’s voice echoed again, catching the Great Profound Yin Dominator off guard.

The Saint Venerable of Punishment was defeated?

His initial reaction was disbelief, but considering Gu An’s Dao practice, he didn’t think Gu An would be wrong.

Is the Celestial Emperor truly that powerful?

The Great Profound Yin Dominator changed his perception of the Celestial Emperor, suddenly realizing Gu An chose to secretly assist the Celestial Emperor, perhaps because of him.

Could the Celestial Emperor be hiding something even greater than Hongmeng?

“How do you plan to handle the Saint Venerable of Punishment?”

The Great Profound Yin Dominator cautiously inquired, wanting to understand Gu An’s attitude towards saints.

“Destroy his Holy Dao, annihilate his Saint Soul.”

Gu An spoke casually, yet these words sent chills down the Great Profound Yin Dominator’s spine.

Before coming to the heavenly dao, he always believed saints to be eternal and indestructible, even if numerous saints joined forces against one, it wouldn’t be possible to completely obliterate them.

Recalling the methods Gu An used to subdue him, the Great Profound Yin Dominator couldn’t help but feel a chill.

If anyone could achieve this, it might truly be him!

The Great Profound Yin Dominator’s hopefulness vanished, realizing Gu An left him be not due to inability to kill him, but sincerely offering him a chance.

He adjusted his mindset, growing eager for the events to unfold.

He wanted to see how Gu An would eliminate the Saint Venerable of Punishment.

The two continued forward and arrived before a row of village houses, Gu An dismounted and walked toward an elderly woman fanning herself in the courtyard, smilingly asking: “Madam, may we stay here for a few days? We won’t lodge for free, we can assist you with labor.”

The elderly woman turned to look at Gu An, her gaze landing on the Great Profound Yin Dominator, who appeared to mortals to have a head through Gu An’s doing to prevent scaring them.

She looked toward the Great Profound Yin Dominator because he carried a yoke, seeming like one who could do hard labor.

“Where are you coming from?” the elderly woman asked, not immediately agreeing to Gu An’s request.

Gu An began chatting with her, soon making her laugh heartily, naturally confirming their temporary stay.

The Great Profound Yin Dominator observed with much contemplation, for with their abilities, wanting to stay required no words, they could even remain unnoticed by mortals, but Gu An still chose to engage with them equally.

He realized Gu An truly lacked the arrogance typical of saints, especially since Gu An surpassed the Saint Realm.

He couldn’t judge whether Gu An’s attitude toward people was good or bad, but to restrain one’s demeanor is itself a high level of Dao practice.

Once or twice can be shrugged off, but to consistently maintain such behavior signifies Gu An genuinely perceives mortal spirits as equals.

Thus, Gu An and the Great Profound Yin Dominator stayed at the elderly woman’s home. Currently, she lived alone as her son had left ten years ago, pursuing Immortal Gods and never returning, and the villagers helped with their farming tasks, receiving a portion of the harvest in return.

A quiet night passed.

With the moonset and sunrise, the next morning, the elderly woman opened her house to find the Great Profound Yin Dominator diligently plowing the fields, while Gu An stretched by the field’s edge.

She was about to approach Gu An when her attention was drawn to a distant figure. Rubbing her eyes, she saw the person running toward her home, appearing quite anxious.
