Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses-Chapter 511 - 508: Nine Extremes Sacred Heart Sword, The Legend of Yang Xian
Chapter 511: Chapter 508: Nine Extremes Sacred Heart Sword, The Legend of Yang Xian
Human World Peak, Heaven-Defining Peak above.
“Heaven and Earth Dao Fruit… Celestials…”
Within the courtyard at the mountain’s summit, Gu An sat in a rocking chair with his eyes closed, musing to himself.
Meng Lang’s conversation with the Immortal Seeker had reached his ears. With his current Cultivation Level of Innate Golden Immortal Realm, no movement within the Celestial Spirit Great World could escape his notice, especially concerning Zhu Xi, whom he had always been keeping an eye on.
Gu An had always had an impression of the Immortal Seeker but had not expected him to have such a background.
What exactly was the world above like?
The self-assured individuals mentioned by the Immortal Seeker, could they be the Immortal Gods pursuing him to the extreme?
Celestial Dao Golden Core, Heaven and Earth Dao Fruit…
Interesting, could it be that the previous Celestial Spirit Great World was transformed by some Great Power, and after the demise of that being, the world shattered, creating today’s vast universe?
If that was the case, what level of Cultivation did that being have?
Upon reaching the Innate Golden Immortal Realm, Gu An’s Dao Fruit could also create a world, confirming that the existence was at least of the Innate Golden Immortal Realm; however, just how high his power was, was difficult to gauge.
Perhaps the growth of a world required time, but Gu An wanted to estimate as high as possible because he would regard any powerful existence as a hypothetical enemy.
He would not hold enmity towards those with whom he had no grievances, but he needed the confidence to respond.
The Celestial Spirit God was scheming with the Celestial Dao Golden Core, but what was being calculated by the Heaven and Earth Dao Fruit that could devour all living beings?
Suddenly, Gu An felt that the Celestial Spirit Great World, so clear and transparent in his eyes, became interesting and full of suspense.
He was curious to see what storms the Celestial Dao Golden Core and the Heaven and Earth Dao Fruit would stir up in the years to come.
Since he had decided to watch over the world’s changes from within the dojo, he would not make a move lightly.
Gu An opened his eyes, raised his hand, and a book from inside the house flew into his hand. He had left many books in his various residences, occasionally revisiting them for new insights.
He gently rocked in the rocking chair, undisturbed by anyone.
A figure appeared out of nowhere in the courtyard, none other than Zhu Xinglan, the leading disciple of Heaven-Defining Peak.

With his Cultivation of the Ninth Floor of the Wandering Immortal Realm, he saw his master’s chair swaying and took another look, then began to tend to the courtyard.
He did not realize that his master was sitting in the chair.
Gu An did not leave either, he was simply concealed by the huge gap in their realms, allowing him to remain completely invisible to Zhu Xinglan and undetected in any way.
To those of Human World Peak, they did not know Gu An by name, only Meng Lang.
As a Great Cultivator, being away for thousands or even tens of thousands of years was nothing out of the ordinary, so no one wondered about Gu An’s disappearance.
After spending half a day on Human World Peak, Gu An stepped back into the Daoist Field of the Beginningless.
…
Tai Cang Continent, upon a barren plain.
Long Qing was meditating in the air, surrounded by black qi which violently tugged at his robes.
Candle Star stood on the ground, staring at him and nodding slightly, his eyes full of admiration.
At that moment, Long Qing opened his eyes, looking into the distance and furrowing his brow as he asked, “What sword is this exactly? It’s quite formidable.”
Candle Star turned to follow his gaze, looking toward the horizon, and said, “The Nine Extremes Sacred Heart Sword from Great Hong Sword Heaven, the first demonic sword of their Sect, formed from the entire Cultivation of a certain Sword Venerable. His soul was forged into a Sword Soul, which was then placed within the Sacred Heart Sword Dao in the River of Sword Dao, nurtured for countless years to take today’s form. To possess this sword is to gain the power to roam the worlds unopposed.”
Hearing this, Long Qing in surprise asked, “A demonic sword?”
“Correct, to tame this sword, one must gain the recognition of its Sword Soul, but the Sword Soul is violent and often devours the souls of its masters, so naturally, it is considered a demonic sword,” Candle Star said, a hint of playfulness on his face.
Narrowing his eyes, Long Qing asked, “Could it be that Great Hong Sword Heaven wants to treat the living beings of the Celestial Spirit Great World as nourishment to feed this demonic sword?”
“That’s not it,” Gu An guessed, “it might be related to the founding ancestor of Great Hong Sword Heaven, the Sword God.”
“Sword God?”
Along with the roar, Candle Star recounted the feats of Sword God Yang Ping’an, and also mentioned Sword Dao Saint Ancestor Yang Xian.
Long Qing listened with rapt attention, never having imagined that such formidable figures existed in other Great Heaven and Earths.
After a brief pause, Candle Star said, “The Transcender who guards this Great Thousand World once declared that Sword Dao Saint Ancestor possessed the highest level of comprehension in this Great Thousand World and could even be considered an anomaly.”
Long Qing asked with curiosity, “Where is that Sword Dao Saint Ancestor now?”
“I don’t know,” Candle Star admitted. “Some say he has perished, while others believe he is hidden deep within the River of Sword Dao. Because the Sacred Heart Sword Dao has merged with the River of Sword Dao, other Sword Cultivators from the Great Thousand Worlds can also comprehend the Sacred Heart Sword Dao. Countless Sword Cultivators and Sword Dao Sects now look up to the Sword Dao Saint Ancestor. I too have sensed the Sacred Heart Sword Dao, and truly, it’s boundlessly vast.”
Candle Star shook his head as he spoke, his tone filled with longing for the Sword Dao Saint Ancestor.
Long Qing too began to fantasize about the Sacred Heart Sword Dao.
“Eh?”
Candle Star suddenly exclaimed with suspicion, interrupting Long Qing’s thoughts.
Long Qing couldn’t help but turn to him and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Candle Star narrowed his eyes and said, “The Nine Extremes Sacred Heart Sword is about to have a master. I never expected him to come. What exactly are these old creatures seeking after reincarnating?”
Long Qing was even more confused, but no matter how he inquired afterward, Candle Star refused to reveal more, merely saying that he would know in time.
Although he didn’t get an answer, Long Qing felt fired up.
From what he’d heard from Candle Star, he learned about a vaster heaven and earth and became aware of more awe-inspiring legends and Great Powers. He too wanted to become an existence like them.
He suddenly thought of his master.
What exactly was his master’s name?
Supporting Dao Sword Venerable was just a title given by the Supreme Sect, his master surely had his own Dao name.
…
Mountains stretched endlessly, and within the forests on the ridges, Li Ya followed an elder. The Divine Exotic Immortal Spirit on his shoulder intently watched the elder, as though fearing that the elder would stop.
The elder wore white clothes under a black robe, a bright red belt wrapped around his clothing. His white hair was tied under a jade crown, and even with an aged face, he still had a noble aura.
On the elder’s back was a sword case with a piece of Talisman Paper attached, its blood-red characters faintly glowing with a cold light.
The elder suddenly stopped walking, startling Li Ya into halting as well.
“You wouldn’t think of snatching the sword from me with your Nirvana Realm cultivation level, would you?” the elder asked Li Ya without turning around.
Li Ya took a deep breath and said, “Of course not, but having witnessed your power, I wish to take you as my master to cultivate the most powerful Sword Dao!”
His eyes burned with fervor. The astonishing great battle he had witnessed still echoed in his mind; the image of the elder suppressing the crowd with a single sword strike made a profound impression on him.
He had heard from a senior observer that among the Great Cultivators vying for the Divine Sword was a powerful being who stood at the Ninth Heaven of the Immortal Path. But when he learned such a formidable figure had taken action, he completely abandoned the thought of seizing the sword, adopting more of a spectator’s mentality instead.
However, the Great Power of the Ninth Heaven that he intended to observe ended up defeated, and the defeat was an utter disaster.
After the elder left with the Divine Sword, Li Ya could still feel the Divine Sword’s guidance and so he followed.
How could the elder not notice his pursuit?
When Li Ya actually managed to keep up, he started to feel hopeful, thinking that perhaps the other party wanted to give him a chance.
The elder turned to face Li Ya and said, “To take me as your master is not impossible. The karma on you is complex, as if someone has altered your fate. Precisely because of that, you should have better comprehension towards the Dao of Karma and Destiny. I might even pass on this Nine Extremes Sacred Heart Sword to you.”
“But…”
Li Ya immediately asked, “But what?”
Hearing that he could possess the sword, his breathing quickened.
