Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses-Chapter 474 - 471: Heavenly Dao Golden Core, The Strongest Life Grid
Chapter 474: Chapter 471: Heavenly Dao Golden Core, The Strongest Life Grid
Inside the attic, Gu An and Li Ya were clinking cups, with Li Ya drinking swiftly and his gaze upon Gu An filled with deep resentment.
Gu An’s face was stern, “Disrespecting the Primordial Ancestor like this?”
Upon hearing that, Li Ya’s eyes widened, he slammed the table and stood up cursing, “Taking advantage of me again! Come on, let’s fight!”
Gu An chuckled, “Are you sure?”
Li Ya choked, his anger dissipated in an instant, and he sat down with a grim face, but for some reason, Gu An’s intentional provocation actually relieved his pressure.
If Gu An had maintained the demeanor of Sword Venerable Fudao, considering Gu An’s care for him, he would not have known how to face him, but now Gu An had drawn him into a brotherly relationship, naturally easing his tension.
“Gu An, who are you really? We entered the valley together back then…”
Li Ya took a deep breath and couldn’t help but ask, it was the most puzzling thing to him.
Back then, when they first met as youths, he never imagined that his fellow disciple with whom he had spent every day, would turn out to be so formidable.
In retrospect, Sword Venerable Fudao’s fame began with protecting him…
At that time, he and his sister Li Xuanyu were attacked by cultivators from the Demon Sect, and it was Sword Venerable Fudao who arrived to save them. Back then, he was not yet known as Sword Venerable Fudao, but as Flying Leaf Sword Immortal.
Once everything connected, Li Ya had even less reason to blame Gu An, he was now only curious.
Gu An replied, “Past and present lives, Reincarnation is endless, who can completely understand their origins? Instead of dwelling on the past, why not accept the present and look forward to the future, right?”
“Who I am is not important, what matters is our friendship, my support for you. You needn’t feel burdened, I’d rather you think about what kind of person you want to become in the future.”
He looked intently at Li Ya, his eyes seeming to see through Li Ya’s thoughts.
Li Ya was startled, not expecting Gu An to understand what he was currently thinking, but remembering the power of Sword Venerable Fudao, he calmed down.
An existence that surpassed Nine Heavens of Immortal Path, his Divine Skills and deductions were beyond his imagination.
Afterward, Li Ya began to envision the future, with Gu An listening attentively.
Li Ya was his first true friend in this life, and although there was now a great disparity in their Cultivation Levels, it did not change his importance in Gu An’s heart.
Perhaps Gu An had helped Li Ya a lot, but it was all casual for him, he never found himself in trouble because of helping Li Ya.
Divine Exotic City seemed immensely powerful to outsiders, but in Gu An’s hands, there was hardly an opportunity to use it.
Gu An was not just a listener, he talked about every level of the Nine Heavens of Immortal Path in detail, mentioning the fortunes of each level, which enthralled Li Ya.
Until night fell, they continued talking, laughter occasionally bursting forth.
The moon was bright and the stars sparse.
An Xin came to the base of the attic, looked up at the windows above, and sighed, “Master hasn’t been this happy in a long time.”
Blood Prison Great Saint sitting beside her in meditation, snorted, he simply did not like Li Ya, but at his master’s house, he dared not speak ill of him.
An Xin watched for a while below before finally turning to leave.
Ever since Ye Lan passed away, she had been very worried about Gu An.
In her eyes, her master’s mood was even more important than the entire world, for if her master were to go to extremes, all living beings would suffer.
Fortunately, her master was always cheerful and open-minded, hardly anything seemed to phase him.
After this event, An Xin admired Gu An even more.
As the moon set and the sun rose, Li Ya departed early the next day.
At the base of Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, Jue Luo Sword Monarch watched Li Ya’s departing figure, thoughtful.
“The Life Grid has actually changed…”
He then turned to glance toward Gu An’s attic, filled with curiosity.
What Realm was the Saint Ancestor in really?
He could not understand, yet thinking about stepping into a higher Realm himself soon made his heart race.
…
Under the brilliant starry sky, a gigantic stone bridge stretched across the heavens, its edges shimmering with multicolored radiance.
Two figures walked on the bridge, none other than Yang Xian Emperor and An Hao.
Yang Xian Emperor led the way, draped in a long golden robe, with a dragon aura swirling around him as he moved.
An Hao followed behind, looking around in wonder, his face full of amazement.
Eventually, his gaze settled ahead where at the end of the bridge, a golden-red orb glowed like the bright sun, seemingly symbolizing hope and brimming with allure.
An Hao’s pupils glittered with an unusual light as he felt a force.
“An Hao, feel carefully, this is the most powerful force in the world, a blessing from the Heavenly Dao, a mere fraction of the power passed down through the Heaven Sect,” Yang Xian Emperor said as he walked, his tone filled with mystery, as if he, too, was in anticipation.
An Hao couldn’t help but ask, “What is Heavenly Dao? How does it differ from the Great Dao?”
After stepping into the Immortal Realm, he had also begun to perceive the Great Dao. The higher his cultivation level grew, the deeper his reverence for the Great Dao became, yet he couldn’t comprehend the existence of Heavenly Dao.
Heavenly Dao existed everywhere, much like the Great Dao, but it wasn’t as clear, seemingly a fusion of countless rules.
“Heaven and earth themselves are Heavenly Dao, all living beings are also Heavenly Dao, while the universe is the Great Dao. The Great Dao births the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao gives rise to all things. In my view, the Heavenly Dao is a force born from the operation of the Great Dao, even more perfect and powerful,” Yang Xian Emperor spoke leisurely, his pace unslowed.
An Hao listened and began to understand his words.
After a long time, they finally reached the end of the bridge, standing before the golden-red orb, they seemed so minuscule, like grains of sand before a mountain.
Yang Xian Emperor looked up, gazing at the golden-red orb, and said, “Every ruler of the Immortal Dynasty has contemplated the Heavenly Dao. They believed that only by thoroughly understanding the Heavenly Dao could one qualify for transcendence. The Primordial Immortal King, who established the Immortal Dynasty, proclaimed himself as the Immortal King and sought to rival the heavens, but succumbed to misfortune subsequently, leading to the dynasty’s downfall. Many years later, someone rebuilt the Immortal Dynasty.”
“That was the first time the dynasty experienced the force of Heavenly Dao, realizing an invisible and intangible force was orchestrating all living beings.”
An Hao listened intently, his eyes penetrating the golden-red emanation of the orb, and what he saw was darkness, a darkness oppressive even to cultivators of the Nirvana Realm.
He couldn’t help but ask, “If it’s truly invisible and intangible, what significance does it hold?”
Yang Xian Emperor responded, “This is a Golden Core left behind by a mighty being who had obtained the power of Heavenly Dao.”
“What? A Golden Core? How is that possible!”
An Hao exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes widening.
This didn’t look like a Golden Core at all!
Yang Xian Emperor’s expression grew complex, and he said, “This was discovered by the Immortal Dynasty in their pursuit of Heavenly Dao’s power, located deep within the Great Heavenly Spirit Land, known as the Heavenly Dao Golden Core. Every epoch, the Heavenly Dao Golden Core reveals some information to us, and this is why our Immortal Dynasty remains unshakeable, impervious even to the Holy Court.”
“Through the Heavenly Dao Golden Core, we learned that the Great Heavenly Spirit Land was once shattered, what we see today is merely a fragment of it, albeit the most crucial one.”
An Hao pressed on, “Why did such a mighty being fall? Was it related to the battle that shattered the heavens and earth?”
“We aren’t sure, but the power of the Heavenly Dao Golden Core continues endlessly, and it’s this force that ensures beings in the Immortal Dynasty are born at the Immortal Path Realm level,” Yang Xian Emperor replied, then turned to look at An Hao.
An Hao looked back, feeling the pressure under his gaze and furrowing his brows.
Yang Xian Emperor’s eyes blazed, “An Hao, you are the Child of Destiny, no one’s life grid surpasses yours. With Sword Venerable Fudao as your master and inheriting the most powerful legacy from the Immortal Dynasty, you will become the strongest under the Heavenly Dao. If you were to usher in the new epoch, in the next era, the Immortal Dynasty would surely be stronger. You can accomplish what we couldn’t.”
An Hao was about to reply when he suddenly turned his head toward the Heavenly Dao Golden Core.

“What sound?”
An Hao asked solemnly, his eyes rapidly shifting on the Heavenly Dao Golden Core, as if searching for something.
Yang Xian Emperor watched him, a look of astonishment crossing his features, his expression turning excited.
“Even the Heavenly Dao Golden Core chooses him? What kind of life grid is this, as if everything in the world was tailor-made for him…”
Yang Xian Emperor watched An Hao, feeling stirred and involuntarily jealous.
An Hao quickly noticed the hint, and looking at Yang Xian Emperor, asked, “Your Majesty, can’t you hear it?”
Yang Xian Emperor answered, “The ruler of the Immortal Dynasty can obtain the inheritance of the Heavenly Dao Golden Core through their Qi Fortune, but at the end of every epoch, the Heavenly Dao Golden Core autonomously chooses an inheritor. Perhaps you have already been chosen. What did you just hear?”
An Hao hesitated for a moment, then said, “I heard a voice urging me to run away…”
