When I Achieved Sainthood, the Immortal Official Actually Called Me to Raise Horses!

It took Gu An four full hours to advance from Nirvana Stage Ninth Layer to Scattered Immortal Stage Ninth Layer.

Upon reaching the Scattered Immortal Stage, his magical power multiplied, and at the same time, he felt many restrictions disappear—the very laws of heaven and earth that once bound all living beings.

For instance, he no longer needed magical power to fly or dive into the ocean. He could even switch his physical body into a Nascent Soul state, passing through all innate barriers in the world.

The feeling was indescribably marvelous!

When he reached Scattered Immortal Stage Eighth Layer, Gu An sensed the entire ocean tremble, and in the far distance, Nirvana Stage Grandmasters engaged in battle—making him feel somewhat guilty.

These past two days had made him realize just how vast the world truly was—so many powerful auras passed through this region.

Lu Lingjun’s failure to ascend earlier had not been a mistake. In a way, this world was akin to the Spirit Realm or even the Immortal Realm, a reality beyond the understanding of mortals.

Compared to his previous life’s Earth, this world was far greater than the Taicang Empire.

Gu An recalled the way Lu Lingjun and the White Spirit Demon Emperor referred to this world:

”Heavenly Great Realm.”

But just how vast was this so-called Great Realm?

Looking up at the sky, Gu An couldn’t help but wonder.

Strangely enough, he had never actually tested how high the sky truly was.

Back when he was at the Nirvana Stage, he had extended his divine sense endlessly upward—but what he discovered had horrified him.

His divine sense couldn’t penetrate the firmament!

The heavens of the Heavenly Great Realm seemed to stretch infinitely high, completely shattering the cosmological understanding he had built in his past life.

Now that he had reached the Scattered Immortal Stage, he could vaguely sense a mysterious force residing in the sky—something even Scattered Immortals dared not approach lightly.

It wasn’t the presence of any living being.

It was more like… Heavenly Might.

Taking a deep breath, Gu An looked away and turned his gaze toward his attribute panel, his expression firm.

Since he had already caused such a commotion…

Might as well push his cultivation further!

1,000,000 years of lifespan—invested!

Notifications flooded his vision.

Failure!

Failure!

Failure!

Gu An remained optimistic.

5,000,000 years of lifespan—surely enough to break through the Yin-Yang Five Emperors Tribulation?!

I don’t believe it!

Yet, as soon as he thought that—his entire 1,000,000 years of lifespan was completely wasted in failure.

Still unfazed, he invested another 1,000,000 years.

And once again—failure.

But he told himself—he was already a Scattered Immortal Ninth Layer Grandmaster.

His Dao heart was stable.

Unshaken by joy or sorrow...

Third round—1,000,000 years of lifespan, invested!

A few seconds later, Gu An couldn’t help but curse:

”F*!”

The discipline he had maintained for 91 years in the cultivation world was finally shattered—and his deep-rooted vulgarity from his past life resurfaced! Ȓ𝐚Nо𝐁ĚṨ

He no longer dared to invest another 1,000,000 years and instead opted for 500,000 years.

Heavenly Dao, have mercy!

Wait, no. He was defying the heavens!

Then… may Master Cheng Xuandan bless him!

Failure notifications continued to flood his vision.

But when one notification appeared with significantly more text, his heart leaped with joy!

It’s here!

[You cultivated for 350,000 years, forcefully attempting to break through to the Wandering Immortal Stage using the Heaven and Earth Primordial Technique. You endured the Yin-Yang Five Emperors Tribulation and succeeded—your cultivation has advanced to Wandering Immortal Stage First Layer.]

[You cultivated for 355,000 years—your cultivation advanced to Wandering Immortal Stage Second Layer.]

[You cultivated for 360,000 years—your cultivation advanced to Wandering Immortal Stage Third Layer.]

…

[You cultivated for 440,000 years—your cultivation advanced to Wandering Immortal Stage Ninth Layer.]

[You cultivated for 460,000 years, attempting to break through to the Heaven-Flying Immortal Stage, but failed to withstand the Heavenly Divine Will Catastrophe.]

For the next 40,000 years, he continued failing every tribulation attempt—once every 20,000 years.

Hoo—

Wandering Immortal Ninth Layer!

Amazing!

The earth’s spiritual energy surged violently, and the resounding cries of the earth echoed like a dragon’s roar, as if the heavens themselves were celebrating his breakthrough—filling Gu An’s heart with euphoria.

Heaven rewards those who burn through their lifespan!

Could Heaven-Flying Immortal Stage really let him fly beyond this sky?

Gu An pondered, filled with anticipation.

Now, he only had 1.6 million years of lifespan left—not enough to risk another tribulation attempt.

If he recklessly spent all his lifespan and died suddenly, that would be an utter waste of this life!

Wandering Immortal Ninth Layer should be enough… right?

As far as the continent’s known forces were concerned, there weren’t even Nirvana Stage cultivators on the surface.

The Demonic Lands and Seven Star Spirit Realm might have some, but they were hidden in the shadows.

Perhaps the Seven Star Spirit Realm had Scattered Immortals, but could any of them match him?

Even if an ancient monster did exist, Gu An could simply endure for a few more decades.

When the 100-million-year function unlocked, he’d power through everything—

No way the Seven Star Spirit Realm could outmatch his ”hard-earned cultivation”!

Wait, no. He wasn’t cheating.

His cultivation was the result of his own tireless efforts!

Gu An comforted himself with this thought.

The earth’s spiritual energy surged into his body at an unprecedented rate, and his Lifespan Barrier was now drawing in vast amounts of energy from all directions.

Suddenly—

A powerful wave surged from the west!

A thousand-foot-high tsunami erupted, and Gu An quickly turned to look.

BOOM!

His island was completely submerged before it even had the chance to resurface. The ocean roiled violently—something had collided with the seabed, fracturing the underwater mountains, sending him plummeting downward.

At that moment, the true power of the Lifespan Barrier revealed itself—it fell with him, but within its protection, he remained motionless, still absorbing earth’s spiritual energy.

Looking through the turbulent seawater, he saw an enormous creature moving like a mountain range across the ocean, radiating awe-inspiring pressure.

[Ancient Deep-Sea Whale (Nirvana Stage Eighth Layer): 87,808/150,000/180,000]

An 80,000-year-old sea demon!

No wonder people said the ocean was even more dangerous than the Demonic Lands!

As he witnessed countless other sea demons lurking in the depths, Gu An found himself intrigued rather than afraid.

But just as his breakthrough reached a crucial moment, he closed his eyes—focusing entirely on comprehending the mysteries of the Wandering Immortal Stage.
