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

Chapter 206: Domineering! The Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thunder rumbled through the heavens as Li Xuanling crashed to the ground.

But unlike Xuantian Yi, who was bearing the immense suppression beyond the Rogue Immortal Realm, Li Xuanling merely stumbled a few steps before steadying himself.

He immediately looked up, his gaze locking onto the mysterious figure standing before Xuantian Yi.

That was a radiant figure, enveloped in a dazzling glow—he recognized him instantly.

“Cave Master!”

Ji Xuanling exclaimed in excitement.

The Master of Six Star Cave, the mighty Divine Soul Lord!

In the heavenly projection above, which had been following Xuantian Yi’s every movement, the image of Divine Soul Lord was now reflected across the entire continent, allowing all living beings to witness his divine presence.

Even the Grandmasters of the Three Dynasties, upon seeing Divine Soul Lord for the first time, instinctively felt an overwhelming sense of reverence.

His mere presence emanated an undefeatable aura.

The world trembled with excitement—the once invincible Sealed Demon was now crumpled on the ground before Divine Soul Lord, his unstoppable momentum shattered.

At that moment, Xuantian Yi was not refusing to rise—he simply couldn’t.

The gap between Rogue Immortal and Roving Immortal was like heaven and earth, mud and cloud.

Xuantian Yi’s eyes filled with horror, and for the first time, a pleading look surfaced in his gaze.

Ten thousand miles away.

An Hao stared at Divine Soul Lord’s figure in the sky projection and panicked.

Before his very eyes, Divine Soul Lord raised his right hand, his solemn voice reverberating across the continent:

"Today, I shall slay this demon for the salvation of all beings!"

His words were like a decree from the heavens, accompanied by thunderous roars that shook the very fabric of the world.

"No—!"

An Hao roared desperately, attempting to leap into the sky to stop it.

But before he could move, a hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder, and his entire spiritual energy collapsed, rendering him unable to fly.

Zhang Bukui, Li Ya, and the disciples of the Taixuan Sect only saw a blur of motion, so fast they wondered if they had imagined it.

Divine Soul Lord’s palm was about to strike Xuantian Yi down.

Li Xuanling’s expression changed drastically—he opened his mouth to plead.

Slap!

Suddenly, a hand landed on Divine Soul Lord’s shoulder, instantly dispersing the divine radiance surrounding him.

His face contorted in shock, and his raised palm froze in midair.

Even Xuantian Yi, in his weakened state, saw the figure that had appeared behind Divine Soul Lord—his face twisted in disbelief, followed by visible struggle.

Li Xuanling’s mouth fell open, his eyes locked onto the figure behind Divine Soul Lord, utterly shocked.

At that moment, the entire world saw the same scene through the heavenly projection.

Third Medicine Valley.

Lu Lingjun pushed open her door just in time to witness the sky projection.

Her face changed drastically.

Outer Sect City—Heavenly Mending Platform.

Zuo Yijian, standing beside the Heaven-Splitting Axe, gazed at the sky and murmured:

"The Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path..."

Even Di Xie, in the midst of his Sword Comprehension, tensed up.

The Sword Sovereign was confronting the strongest forces of the Seven Star Spirit Realm?

An Hao’s eyes lit up with excitement.

His master had finally come to save him!

Li Ya, too, was overjoyed—their ancestors had arrived!

Zhang Bukui, on the other hand, was simply curious—who was this mysterious arrival?

Meanwhile, Lü Baitian exhaled in relief.

The sect leaders of other factions, however, were confused—why had the Sword Sovereign intervened?

Within the sky projection, Divine Soul Lord slowly lowered his right hand.

His peripheral vision flickered toward the figure behind him.

"Are you… the Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path?"

Behind him stood a shadow wreathed in dark-purple demonic energy, both mysterious and ominous.

Before Divine Soul Lord could react, Gu An suddenly pulled him backward—

With a single step forward, Divine Soul Lord was forcefully shoved away!

His face drastically changed—he had been pushed back uncontrollably!

Gu An arrived before Xuantian Yi, extending two fingers and pressing them against his forehead.

Boom!

The power of a Celestial Ascension cultivator erupted, forcibly expelling the Sealed Demon’s soul from Xuantian Yi’s body!

Dark demonic energy collapsed and dissipated.

Xuantian Yi’s face contorted in pain.

The world gasped in shock.

This wasn’t a possession?!

Before the Sealed Demon could retaliate, Gu An’s palm opened, grabbing hold of it—sealing it within his grasp!

At that moment—

The oppressive demonic aura that had blanketed the continent… vanished.

A collective sigh of relief spread across all living beings—as if a massive weight had been lifted from their chests.

"You…!"

Divine Soul Lord’s expression darkened in rage.

As the Master of Six Star Cave, he naturally knew the true origins of the Sealed Demon.

Though he had not orchestrated it himself, he had allowed it to happen.

And now, the Sword Sovereign had completely humiliated him!

Gu An turned sideways, his cold gaze cutting toward Divine Soul Lord.

Xuantian Yi coughed up blood, his weak body collapsing forward—his forehead falling against Gu An’s leg.

Before losing consciousness, he muttered weakly:

“…Sword Sovereign…”

Then, he blacked out entirely.

The world held its breath.

Everyone could sense the standoff between Divine Soul Lord and the Sword Sovereign.

And they all understood—the Sword Sovereign had not come to protect the Sealed Demon.

He had come to save the one possessed by it!

The Three Dynasties’ cultivators near the battlefield did not dare breathe too loudly.

Blood Prison Great Saint, still lying on the ground, stared at Gu An in awe.

"So domineering…!"

He had said nothing, yet his presence alone made his intentions clear.

The Blood Prison Great Saint suddenly felt his past arrogance was pathetic.

Compared to true powerhouses, he was just a loudmouth.

Across the world, cultivators sensed Divine Soul Lord faltering.

He had been overpowered with a single move, and even the Seven Star Spirit Realm’s greatest expert hesitated before the Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path.

Ji Xuanling’s heart pounded—he had never imagined Divine Soul Lord could be so easily suppressed.

And now, Divine Soul Lord faced a dilemma.

"Who exactly are you? Don’t tell me you’re from the Taixuan Sect—this continent could never produce someone like you!"

Divine Soul Lord’s voice was low and heavy, a stark contrast to his earlier declaration. This time, he didn’t let his voice echo across the continent—only he, Gu An, and Li Xuanling could hear it.

Gu An didn’t respond.

Instead, he raised his right hand, extended a single finger, and pointed it directly at Divine Soul Lord’s face.

For some reason, Divine Soul Lord felt an inexplicable sense of dread.

Too domineering!

The other party had no intention of talking.

There was only one meaning behind that gesture—Leave.

Otherwise…

Divine Soul Lord understood immediately.

Just the sheer power emanating from this man, power he couldn’t even resist, made one terrifyingly clear possibility surface in his mind—

He might die.

He was a Roving Immortal!

Not just on this continent, but across the surrounding seas, he stood among the pinnacle of cultivators!

Yet now, in front of this mysterious and overwhelming presence, his thoughts raced like lightning, assessing every possibility.

And in the end—

With a cold snort, he flicked his sleeve and turned away.

In just a few steps, he vanished.

He left gracefully, but in the eyes of the world, it was still an act of retreat in fear.

No matter how straight his back was, the perception had already been decided.

He had yielded.

Gu An hadn’t killed Divine Soul Lord.

Not because he couldn’t, but because he shouldn’t.

The entire world was watching.

1. The Seven Star Spirit Realm was considered a Holy Land, known for its mission to protect humanity.
2. If he killed Divine Soul Lord, he might attract other high-ranking cultivators from the Star Caves.

Sometimes, not killing was more terrifying than killing.

By sparing him, Gu An both suppressed and left room for fear.

If he had killed him, it would have been an irreconcilable blood feud.

But by letting him live, the Seven Star Spirit Realm would forever live in the shadow of his power.

Gu An glanced up.

The heavenly tribulation was beginning to fade.

With the Sealed Demon sealed away, there was no longer a target to undergo the trial.

Thus, the tribulation itself ceased.

His figure vanished in an instant.

Without Gu An’s support, Xuantian Yi’s weakened body fell forward.

Just before his forehead hit the ground, Li Xuanling appeared and caught him.

Lü Baitian immediately called out, summoning the Taixuan Sect disciples to follow him in aiding Xuantian Yi.

Over ten thousand disciples soared into the sky, rushing forward without hesitation.

None of them feared death—every single one of them had excitement written all over their faces.

With the Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path here, what was there to fear?

The sect masters of the other factions exchanged uncertain glances.

This entire sequence of events had far exceeded their expectations.

There was too much to process—too much that challenged everything they thought they knew.

Finally, Liang Canghai took a deep breath and declared:

“The Three Dynasties shall stand together!”

Then, without hesitation, he flew toward Cang Heaven Sect’s forces.

The other sect masters quickly regained their composure and issued their own orders.

They now had a new priority—

Winning over the Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path.

This battle had solidified a terrifying truth—

The Sword Sovereign was stronger than the Holy Land itself!

In the Third Medicine Valley, Lu Lingjun watched as the sky projection slowly faded.

Her thoughts returned to reality.

For a moment, she instinctively wanted to find Gu An, to talk to him, to share the emotions she felt from witnessing this monumental battle.

But then, she realized something—

Gu An’s presence was no longer in the valley.

Instinctively, she extended her divine sense, scanning toward Xuan Valley—

She found him checking herbs in the nearby mountain forests.

Only then did she let out a breath of relief.

A helpless smile formed on her lips.

“Such an earth-shattering event, and all you care about is your precious plants?

You really have no ambition at all.”

Elsewhere, within the Inner Sect City, Ji Xiaoyu stood atop a rooftop.

Even as the heavenly projection faded, she didn’t look away.

She had never met Divine Soul Lord before, but she could feel his status was exceptionally high within the Seven Star Spirit Realm.

Yet even he had been forced to retreat.

Her expression turned complicated.

“Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path… just who are you?”

This battle would change everything.

Ji Xiaoyu could already foresee it—

The Seven Star Spirit Realm would be forced into submission, their previous unchecked arrogance shattered.

Before, even without the Sword Sovereign, they had restrained their darker ambitions, unwilling to act too openly.

Now?

With the Sword Sovereign proving himself superior to their greatest expert, they would be forced to act even more cautiously.

But Ji Xiaoyu was certain of one thing—

The Seven Star Spirit Realm would do everything in its power to uncover the identity of the Sword Sovereign.

And when that happened, the Ji Family, being part of the Taixuan Sect, would be the first weapon they wielded.

“Family head… was this the outcome you foresaw?”

Ji Xiaoyu smirked as she turned away.

She had barely taken a step—

Boom!

A thunderous cheer erupted from the Inner Sect City.

The entire city was celebrating.

But it was only a fraction of the world’s reaction.

At that moment, the entire world erupted into an uproar!

The Seven Star Spirit Realm, a Holy Land of legend, had been shamed before the entire continent.

And in contrast—

The Sword Sovereign of the Righteous Path had ascended to an untouchable height!
