Gu An watched Li Ya's battle and was quite satisfied with Li Ya's growth.
The Golden Extreme God intended to recruit Li Ya and would not let him die, so Gu An had no intention of intervening.
It had been tens of thousands of years; it was time to let the Human World experience some turbulence.
Trials could be opportunities for all living beings; peace does not necessarily mean safety, and great destruction could lead to rebirth from Nirvana.
Gu An continued to close his eyes and refine his Miao Zhen Dharma Aspect.
In the years that followed, in less than a decade, the Innate Human Race released by the Golden Extreme God became a major scourge in the world.
This Innate Human Race had a Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal, more than ten Profound Yuan Free Immortals, and cultivators from various realms below that; even the least among them possessed the Immortal Dao realm.
