Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses Chapter 985 - 977: The Rise of Legend

"Could you lend the rit Divine Horse Order?" Xuanqing Star Lord asked, barely containing his excitent.

Gu An imdiately waved his sleeve and tossed the rit Divine Horse Order to him.

Upon catching the rit Divine Horse Order, Xuanqing Star Lord began to cast a spell, contacting all the Immortal Gods under the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch.

The Golden Body Divine Venerable was expelled from the Heavenly Realm, a subject of much discussion among the Supre Immortals and Celestial Dao Venerables in their dojos and the Celestial Palace.

The Eternal Life Venerable, whom Yang Jian serves, and Li Xuanmiao’s master, Venerable Guangfa Taiguang, were also keeping an eye on the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch.

The Eternal Life Venerable, who had t Gu An, found it surprising that Gu An was so powerful.

With the ergence of the position of rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch, all the high-order Immortal Gods felt its imnse destiny.

Although this position is not yet above the Celestial Dao Venerables, it is already over the Supre Immortals.

How many Celestial Dao Venerables are in the Celestial Court?

The vast majority of Venerables are already in deep seclusion, indifferent to worldly affairs, and the Supre Immortals hold the top position in the Celestial Court’s power pyramid. The sudden appearance of an Immortal God in a position higher than the Supre Immortal was hard for all Supre Immortals to accept, including the Eternal Life Venerable.

However, Gu An could easily repel the Golden Body Divine Venerable, indicating he is beyond the Dao Extre Daluo Immortal. No Supre Immortal dared to trouble him anymore, only plotting in the shadows.

The lofty Celestial Dao Venerables saw even more. In their view, the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch was the knife in the hand of the new Heavenly Emperor, and they would not confront the Heavenly Emperor.

While waiting for the arrival of the Heavenly Officials, Xuanqing Star Lord began to introduce the Celestial Court to Gu An.

Gu An pretended to listen, though his mind had already drifted back to the Human World.

The ti in the Heavenly Realm differs from the Human World, and he already started to miss the ripened dicinal herbs in his dojo.

...

Above the sea of clouds, a pavilion stood. Within, over a dozen Immortal Gods gathered, drinking tea and chatting, among whom was Li Ya.

Li Ya sat in a corner, listening to the other Immortal Gods discussing the recent affairs of the Celestial Court.

"That rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch is not simple at all; his Immortal position is higher than a Supre Immortal. It’s said his divine skills are vast, and so Supre Immortals have already suffered in his hands."

"It’s said all Divine Horses are under his control, which grants him great power."

"Who is he, anyway, to have such a high Immortal position imdiately upon his first ascension?"

"His cultivation level is unrivaled, and he is a rit Immortal approved by the Heavenly Emperor, sothing we cannot compare to."

"Such an existence might improve our influence as rit Immortals."

The Immortal Gods in the pavilion were all rit Immortals, rare ones who still held ideals. They hadn’t been drawn into other Immortal God factions and chose to keep a low profile, so they could only stick together.

Li Ya listened to the tales of the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch, but he didn’t pay much attention.

Holding control over the Divine Horses, how could the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch aid all living beings afterward?

In his eyes, the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch was rely a pawn placed by the Heavenly Emperor and might restrict the rit Immortals in the future.

Li Ya looked expressionless, feeling irritable as he grew more weary of life in the Celestial Court.

Unable to contribute anything, he could only remain in his Celestial Palace to cultivate, which was entirely against his initial intention of becoming immortal. If it was just for cultivation, he might as well return to Central Heaven to teach his disciples.

At that mont, a figure flew over, revealing itself to be Xuanqing Star Lord.

Upon seeing Xuanqing Star Lord, all the rit Immortals rose. They all had great respect for this Star Lord. Even if so had a higher Immortal position than the Star Lord, they would still bow before Xuanqing Star Lord.

Xuanqing Star Lord entered the pavilion and glanced at all the rit Immortals. Li Ya also stood to greet him. For the first rit Immortal, Xuanqing Star Lord nodded with a smile, giving him attention.

"Star Lord, what is the background of the rit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch? Is he of the sa path as us?" One rit Immortal asked first, and all other rit Immortals turned to look at Xuanqing Star Lord.

Xuanqing Star Lord smiled and said, "Even I cannot fully explain his origin, but I can assure you that he is definitely of the sa path as you, just that his vision and perspective are higher. I currently cannot facilitate an introduction between you and him."

These words made the rit Immortals uncomfortable. However, they dared not complain as his status truly exceeded theirs.

Little did they know, Xuanqing Star Lord said this because Gu An had already left the Celestial Court and returned to Central Heaven to grow flowers and herbs.

He couldn’t impose on Gu An and didn’t want to highlight this matter, lest the rit Immortals look down on Gu An.

Xuanqing Star Lord was unaware of the relationship between Li Ya and Gu An. Firstly, Li Ya never spoke of Gu An to outsiders, and secondly, Gu An deliberately concealed this cause and effect.

Seeing the rit Immortals’ discomfort, Xuanqing Star Lord changed the topic, saying, "Everyone, I am tasked with a mission. If you have nothing to do, would you be interested in taking it on?"

A female rit Immortal asked, "What kind of mission?"

They indeed needed to do so tasks to integrate into the Celestial Court, but not as lackeys for other Immortal Gods.

Xuanqing Star Lord said, "The borders of the Heavenly Dao seem to be facing a Chaos invasion, weakening its destiny. You are to aid the living beings in those worlds and investigate the matter. If you complete the mission, His Majesty will definitely reward you. This mission was bestowed upon by His Majesty and is an opportunity left for the rit Immortals."

Upon hearing this, all the rit Immortals’ eyes lit up, including Li Ya.

Xuanqing Star Lord said aningfully, "There are more and more rit Immortals, but few truly hold to their original aspirations. This is an opportunity given by His Majesty, hoping the rit Immortals can rightfully establish themselves and possibly grow in influence to affect the Celestial Court."

These words stirred the passion of the rit Immortals.

However, Li Ya felt puzzled. Is this truly what the Heavenly Emperor desires?

He couldn’t understand what the Heavenly Emperor was concerned about, even though his aura as the newly enthroned seed like the strongest.

The longer Li Ya stayed in the Celestial Court, the more he felt the source of the Celestial Court’s atmosphere lay with the Heavenly Emperor.

Perhaps other rit Immortals had similar thoughts, but for now, they acted positively, pressing Xuanqing Star Lord for more information.

...

In the Daoist Field of the Beginningless.

The Ghost Mother of Ephera followed Gu An, watching him pick dicinal herbs while asking, "Master, what is the Celestial Court truly like?"

Gu An began to give a brief introduction to the Celestial Court. Although the information wasn’t detailed, it was enough to let the Ghost Mother of Ephera’s imagination run wild, with a look of longing in her eyes.

Noticing her expression, Gu An asked with a smile, "What? Want to ascend to immortality? If you wish to go, I won’t stop you."

The Ghost Mother of Ephera imdiately shook her head, saying, "Master, I won’t go there. You have just beco an immortal and yet you returned, indicating the Celestial Court isn’t that interesting. If you were to stay there, I would instead think of following you."

Gu An chuckled but didn’t continue the conversation, while the Ghost Mother of Ephera began talking about the other disciples’ thoughts.

The Ancestor Master has ascended to immortality, and the glow of rit was seen by all living beings on the continent. This led so disciples to aspire to ascend to immortality, thus choosing to leave the Beginningless to gather rit in the mortal world.

Gu An wasn’t worried about this. There were still plenty of disciples remaining.

"In ti, there will be Immortal Gods fleeing from the Celestial Court."

Gu An ntioned casually, and these words startled the Ghost Mother of Ephera.
