Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses Chapter 636 629: The Tip of the Iceberg of the Celestial Cou

The setting sun dipped westward, and the Qiankun Sect's Main City bustled as it always did.

Inside an inn, Gu An and the Celestial Spirit God, who had taken the form of Bai Sheng, sat beside a third-floor window, drinking. The third floor was vast, divided into small rooms with windows, and even though every guest room was full, there was no clamor.

The Celestial Spirit God looked at Gu An, recalling the tis they had road mountains and played by the waters, outwitting bandits— back when Su Jin had not yet transford.

That experience, albeit brief, seed quite delightful upon reflection.

He couldn't fathom Gu An.

He had entered reincarnation without any mories. It was understandable to do such things in that state, but why had Gu An accompanied him on those travels?

In his eyes, Gu An was very strange.

Gu An was the most terrifying being he had ever encountered; he was rely a Celestial God in the Celestial Court, and his understanding of the Celestial Court was very one-sided—he couldn't make comparisons.

Soone as powerful as Gu An, however, enjoyed playing in the Human World, and even relished drinking with mortals.

The Gu An in battle and the one at leisure were two completely different personas, making it hard for anyone to associate him with both states.

Gu An looked at the Celestial Spirit God and smiled, "It's rare that you seek out, how is it? Isn't drinking here more interesting than sitting idly beneath the World Gate?"

The Celestial Spirit God didn't answer the question. He stared intently at Gu An and said, "You didn't kill ; aside from fearing the Celestial Court, you must have intentions of subduing , right?"

Gu An counter-queried, "You are a god of the Celestial Court—how can you be subdued?"

"That's just my identity. My heart belongs to whoever it chooses, and I will serve them. Since ancient tis, within the Celestial Court, many gods have had their hearts set on the outside world, which is why there are so many Immortal Sects and Orders. The Celestial Court is indeed mighty and immovable, but the hearts of gods are just as complex as those of humans, and under the Celestial Rules, there is also a place where right and wrong blur."

The Celestial Spirit God's calm reply left Gu An silent.

It seed that wherever there were interests to be had, there was always room for negotiation.

After pondering for a mont, Gu An said, "Tell about the Celestial Court first."

The Celestial Spirit God's gaze grew profound, "I am a Celestial God, with the qualification to guard the Great Thousand World, but in the Celestial Court, I am rely at the bottom. I do not have the right to enter the true Celestial Court. Ever since my ascent to immortality, I have either stayed with my master, Emperor Ziwei, or remained in the Celestial Spirit Great World. I don't know much more about the Celestial Court than you do."

"I can tell you that above Celestial Gods are Star Monarchs, whose cultivation level is at least that of a Taiqing Golden Immortal, and above that are the Immortal Monarchs, a level I cannot reach. Before I betrayed my master, he held such a rank. Whether that is still the case, I'm not sure."

Celestial God, Star Monarch, Immortal Monarch.

It seed that most Immortal Monarchs were perhaps in the Heaven-Opening Daluo Immortal Realm.

Gu An, residing in the Miaozhen Daluo Immortal Realm Perfection, was not afraid—of course, one must never be careless and should always overestimate the opponent.

"There are countless Celestial Gods in the Celestial Court; I once trained with a Celestial Army. Did you know? There are hundreds of millions of Celestial Gods there. When I entered their trial realm, I realized how ordinary my talent was. In the eyes of those high in the Celestial Court, I was no different than an ant."

The Celestial Spirit God spoke of this with a complex expression.

In the Great Thousand World, he was invincible, but in the Celestial Court, he felt so insignificant—a gap unimaginable to mortal spirits.

Gu An narrowed his eyes and asked, "How many such Celestial Armies does the Celestial Court have?"

With one Celestial Army comprising hundreds of millions of Innate Golden Immortals and Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortals, the repressive power of the Celestial Court was indeed frightening.

The Golden Immortals of the Three Thousand Great Worlds combined couldn't match that number, aning the reach of the Celestial Court's control far exceeded the scope of Gu An's perception.

The Celestial Spirit God solemnly said, "Many branches, I'm not clear on the number, no one knows just how terrifying the foundation of the Celestial Court is, even the Immortal Gods within it, only the supre Celestial Emperor knows."

Celestial Emperor!

Upon hearing this, Gu An didn't want to probe further for fear of provoking taboo.

The tip of the iceberg that was the Celestial Court was already so terrifying that the realm of the Celestial Emperor was beyond his imagination.

Gu An asked, "Since you want to take refuge with , do you know what you will face next?"

The Celestial Spirit God, seeing that he did not continue to inquire about the Celestial Court or the Celestial Emperor, also breathed a sigh of relief. Continuing the conversation could provoke detection by the Celestial Court.

"I know, Profound Star Immortal Monarch, Taiyi Immortal Monarch, I initially thought the forr ca for faith, but I was utterly mistaken. They are likely eyeing Tian Hao. The Celestial Spirit Immortal Venerable created him surely for so mission, and behind this might also be the calculations of my master, Emperor Ziwei. I'm unclear on what he's scheming or the true origin of Tian Hao, but attracting the attention of two Immortal Monarchs ans that even if you resolve them, there will still be bigger troubles ahead."

The Celestial Spirit God said calmly, ntioning Profound Star Immortal Monarch and Taiyi Immortal Monarch there was neither fear nor worry in his deanor; he believed Gu An could handle these two Immortal Monarchs.

"Given this, you still wish to help ? Is it because of Tian Hao?" Gu An looked at him and asked.

The protection of the Celestial Dao Destiny prevented Gu An from hearing his thoughts, but based on Gu An's understanding of him, he wasn't one to lie.

A ripple passed through the eyes of the Celestial Spirit God as he said, "If I say Tian Hao doesn't matter to at all, that would be false, but more so it's because I also need a backer. There's no longer any possibility of ascending within the Celestial Court, and the more chaos that arises in the Celestial Spirit Great World in the future, the greater my sins."

"I'd like to know now, your care for Tian Hao, is it due to fate, or like the Immortal Monarchs, do you have ulterior motives?"

He addressed Gu An with respect, indicating a change in his attitude.

Gu An asked, "If it's due to fate, do you have a plan?"

The Celestial Spirit God showed a smile. Before coming, he had speculated that if Gu An had ulterior motives, he would have acted long ago; there would have been no need to wait for the Immortal Monarchs to co.

And over these years, he had watched Tian Hao live carefreely; Gu An showed no signs of controlling Tian Hao.

The Celestial Spirit God said, "Actually, resolving this is not difficult. With Tian Hao's talent and destiny pattern, he could be sent to a God stronger than the Immortal Monarchs, and the Immortal Monarchs would have no reason to act against the Great Thousand World. Once Tian Hao leaves, they can only swallow their losses in silence."

With that said, he couldn't help but sigh, though it was unclear for whom.

"Do you have a God worthy of entrustnt?" Gu An hesitantly asked.

Located at the bottom of the Celestial Court, the Celestial Spirit God seed to have no escape; could he still find a way out for Tian Hao?

The Celestial Spirit God shook his head, "I don't know such a transcendental God, but I can recomnd Tian Hao to go to the Misty Immortal Court. The Misty Immortal Court has produced many Gods and is recognized by the Celestial Court as an orthodox Immortal Sect. Stronger entities support the Misty Immortal Court from behind, and with Tian Hao's qualifications, he will certainly be able to enter. The two Immortal Monarchs would not dare to invade the Misty Immortal Court."

"Afterward, we only need to withstand their retaliation once. Once they fail, they will be forced to temporarily let go of this karma."

Misty Immortal Court!

Gu An thought of the mories of the Emperor of Eternal Life, who was born in one of the Immortal Mansions of the Misty Immortal Court and left at an early age. He went back once, and from his mories, the Misty Immortal Court indeed appeared unfathomable.

The Emperor of Eternal Life was his Reincarnation Body, so in so sense, he could also be considered a disciple of the Misty Immortal Court.

Sending his disciple Tian Hao to the Misty Immortal Court seed like karma repeating itself.

But, could the Misty Immortal Court truly accept Tian Hao?

Would Tian Hao be protected there after his arrival?

The Celestial Spirit God's understanding of the Celestial Court was not deep, and Gu An's understanding of the Misty Immortal Court was similarly shallow.
