My son is about to break through.

The mountain peaks are towering into the clouds, and the mountains are shrouded in fairy mist. There are jade-like buildings looming in the distance, and pavilions and towers emerging among them. Sometimes you can see monks flying in the air, like immortals.

This is the Taixu Holy Land.

One of the ancient holy places in the eastern region of the ancient world.

The ninth peak.

In a certain true teaching cave, Gu Xuan sat cross-legged, silently absorbing and exhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, using the power of spiritual energy to temper his physical body. His blood and energy surged like a torrent, and a phantom of a divine phoenix seemed to emerge behind him, with its majestic power suppressing everything.

but.

Because this is the true teaching cave, and because of the formation blocking it, this kind of aura has not really leaked out.

After a long time.

Gu Xuan opened his eyes, and all the strange visions disappeared.

"The Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body is indeed extraordinary. My current cultivation speed is several times faster than before. At this rate, I believe it won't take long to break through to the middle level of Grandmaster!"

In the past, Gu Xuan believed that his cultivation speed was not slow, but it was definitely not comparable to what it is now.

His current practice made him more aware of the power of the White Phoenix Divine Body.

and.

Since entering the Taixu Holy Land, Gu Xuan also understood what a divine body is.

Any genius who possesses a divine body will have immeasurable achievements in the future, but the divine body is innate, and it is extremely rare to condense a divine body through acquired means.

In this regard.

Gu Xuan admired the Great Sage Tianfeng even more in his heart.

Although this person's methods did not allow him to possess a complete Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body, it was already not easy for him to cultivate an incomplete Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body.

Not bad!

A fake Heavenly Phoenix divine body like this is actually caused by the incomplete divine body.

Fu He was also aware that he possessed an incomplete Heavenly Phoenix divine body.

Unfortunately.

Even with the foundation of the Taixu Holy Land, there is no treasure as incredible as the Phoenix Essence and Blood. Otherwise, there would be a chance that Gu Xuan could obtain it and get the complete Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body.

After all, for an ancient holy land, the importance of a divine body is self-evident.

Especially when the great age is about to come, if a divine body can emerge, then when the great age comes in the future, one can at least attain enlightenment and become a saint.

however.

This is just the minimum standard for a divine body.

As long as any divine body does not die unexpectedly, it will be no problem for it to enter the Great Saint Realm in the future, and it may even be possible to go further.

and so.

If the Taixu Holy Land really had the Phoenix's blood essence, Gu Xuan, with the advantage of his incomplete Phoenix Divine Body, would have some hope of obtaining it.

But unfortunately, Taixu Holy Land does not have it.

at this time.

Gu Xuan noticed that the cave token in the storage ring was vibrating slightly, then he opened it and walked out of the cave, and saw a young cultivator wandering outside the cave formation.

then.

Gu Xuan used the token to open the formation.

"Senior Brother Gu!"

"Why is Junior Brother Chen here?"

Gu Xuan's expression changed slightly. The person in front of him was an inner disciple of the Ninth Peak. Although he entered the sect earlier than him, because he was a true disciple, he let the latter address him as senior brother.

Chen Li said, "I have already found out the information that Senior Brother Gu asked me to find out. Now, all the forces in the Eastern Region seem to be quite afraid of the one in Jiuzhou, so they have not made any moves for the time being."

Speaking of it.

Chen Li looked at Gu Xuan with an increasingly respectful expression.

Although both of them are disciples of Taixu Holy Land, not to mention that Gu Xuan is a true disciple and he is only an inner disciple, their identities and status are already unequal.

The fact that there is a figure comparable to a saint standing behind Gu Xuan is enough for Chen Li to please him.

Everyone in the Eastern Region knows now that a dynasty has emerged in the traditionally impoverished Jiuzhou, and behind that dynasty stands a powerful man who is as strong as a saint.

If I could leave a good impression in Gu Xuan's mind, it would be of great benefit to my future practice.

After all.

The world of cultivation is not just about fighting and killing, it also emphasizes the ways of the world.

"Thank you, Junior Brother Chen, for your help!"

When Gu Xuan heard the news, his expression relaxed and he immediately stuffed a bottle of pills into the latter's hand.

"Brother, you can't do that. These are what I should do..."

Chen Li wanted to refuse, but Gu Xuan pretended to be serious and said, "Junior Brother Chen has been running around for me these days. How can I ignore it as your senior brother? If you don't accept me, I'm afraid I won't dare to ask you for help in the future."

"Since Senior Brother has said so, then I, Junior Brother, will obey your orders!"

Chen Li took the pill with a smile.

This is another benefit of working for a true disciple. Not only can you establish a relationship with him, but the other party is also very generous. Any bottle of elixir is invaluable to an inner disciple.

"Next, I hope that Junior Brother Chen will continue to pay attention to the affairs of Jiuzhou, and inform me as soon as there are any changes."

"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I will keep an eye on it!"

Chen Li patted his chest and said.

Subsequently.

The other party took the pill and left with a smile.

Not long after Chen Li left, the communication jade talisman in Gu Xuan's hand vibrated again, and then he left the cave and headed towards a certain direction of the Ninth Peak.

along the way.

Gu Xuan also met quite a few inner disciples from the Ninth Peak. Some of these disciples had higher cultivation bases than Gu Xuan, but they all bowed respectfully when they saw him.

In the Ninth Peak, the status of true disciples and inner disciples is very different.

Normally.

If one wants to become a true disciple, one must at least break through to the Divine Transformation Realm.

But Gu Xuan is different. He possesses a broken divine body of the Heavenly Phoenix, but this alone is enough for the Ninth Peak to give him the status of a true disciple, not to mention that there is a strong man who is as strong as a saint behind him.

In this cultivation world where both background and talent are important, it is no problem for Gu Xuan to become the true disciple of the Ninth Peak.

Not long after.

Gu Xuan came to the elders' cave and met Fu He.

"Disciple pays homage to Master!"

"You came!"

Fu He had a smile on his face, and he was obviously in a very good mood.

"It has been a few days since you entered the Taixu Holy Land. I was in seclusion to break through before, so I didn't have time to guide you in your cultivation. Now that you are here today, if you have any questions about cultivation, feel free to ask, and I will answer them for you!"

"Could it be that Master has already broken through to the Dao Palace realm?"

Gu Xuan was stunned.

Fu He smiled and said, "Exactly!"

This is the fundamental reason why he is in a good mood.

Fu He was stuck in the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm for many years, and was unable to make any progress until he entered the Great Sage Secret Realm and got an opportunity. This time, he returned to the Taixu Holy Land for seclusion and was able to make a breakthrough.

strictly speaking.

The elders of Taixu Holy Land must have cultivation at least at the Dao Palace level.

Fu He is the elder of the Ninth Peak. His original cultivation level is only the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm, which is somewhat unworthy of his title. It is only because of his special relationship with the Ninth Peak that he was able to get the position of elder.

to this end.

Many elders secretly complained.

But now that he has broken through to the Dao Palace realm, the previous problem naturally no longer exists. This is another reason why Fu He cares so much about the breakthrough.

-

Shenwu Dynasty.

Guangyang Prefecture.

Inside Gujiazhuang.

Gu Qingfeng looked at the information panel and found that something was different here.

I saw that the information panel had been divided into two interfaces since I didn't know when. The offspring interface!

Death soldier interface!

Gu Qingfeng first opened the offspring interface, only to see that the text information on it was no different from before.

……

"Your descendant 'Gu Xuan' has entered the Taixu Holy Land and become a true disciple of the Ninth Peak of the Taixu Holy Land!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Xuan' has received guidance from a Taoist monk of the first level of the Dao Palace Realm, and his cultivation has improved slightly!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has been concentrating on seclusion, and his cultivation has improved slightly!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' was attacked by a monk*495!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' was attacked by a monk*766!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' was severely injured, but he stood up again after being broken, and his cultivation has greatly improved!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Xiu' was attacked by monks..."

……

When he saw the familiar information panel, Gu Qingfeng's mouth twitched slightly.

In his opinion.

Gu Xuan’s Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body should be given to Gu Xiu.

Gu Qingfeng has no solution for the problem his son is facing now. He can only hope that the remaining soul of the Great Sage can be of some help.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng switched to the death squad interface.

Just as he thought, the information displayed on the death squad interface was all the death squads he had obtained from the system.

……

"Your warrior 'Hongye' leads the other warriors into the Ancient Beast Mountain Range!"

"Your assassin 'Hongye' was attacked by a ferocious beast*96!"

"Your assassin 'Liu San' was attacked by a ferocious beast and was seriously injured!"

"Your assassin 'Liu San' died of his injuries!"

"Your assassin 'Hongye' killed 10 great master beasts!"

"Your assassin 'Gu Wu' has been ordered to go to the eastern region of the ancient world!"

"Your assassin 'Gu Wu' was attacked by a vicious beast*137!"

"Your assassin 'Hongye' entered the East Region and was attacked by a cultivator in the Divine Transformation Realm, but he fought back and killed them!"

"Your assassin 'Gu Shiqi' has broken through to the initial stage of Grandmaster Realm due to swallowing natural treasures!"

"Your assassins..."

……

Seeing the text information in the death squad interface, Gu Qingfeng felt somewhat satisfied with the functional changes of the information panel.

even though.

The breakthrough of a dead soldier will not bring any improvement points to himself.

but.

Gu Qingfeng can also get more information from this information panel.

It's very simple.

How many descendants does Gu Qingfeng have now? The information provided by these few descendants is ultimately limited.

In comparison, the number of death warriors is truly huge.

Until now.

Gu Qingfeng had a total of more than three thousand death warriors. Even though some of them had been lost over the years, there were still at least more than two thousand people.

Some of these people obey Gu Yang, and some obey him.

Nowadays, Gu Qingfeng can learn a lot of things just from the information panel.

In this way, even if he does not leave Gujiazhuang, he can control many things.

after all--

Many death warriors spread out, enough to cover a lot of areas.

more importantly.

Gu Qingfeng believed that he would be able to get more assassins in the future, so that he would have more information in his hands.

"Gu Wu has been ordered to go to the Eastern Region. It seems that the imperial court also wants to get involved in the Ancient World!"

Gu Qingfeng looked at one of the lines of information above and his expression changed slightly.

In his opinion, Gu Yang's behavior was very normal.

Now that Jiuzhou has been exposed to the sight of the Ancient World, the Shenwu Dynasty naturally needs to learn more about the Ancient World.

With Gu Wu, who has reached the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm, leading the team, crossing the Ancient Beast Mountains is no problem at all.

Although the Ancient Beast Mountain Range is dangerous, it has already been conquered by many cultivators from the Eastern Region. Even if there are still dangers now, they will not be too many.

Coupled with Gu Wu's strength at the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm, any trouble he might have is enough to be dealt with.

at this time.

The communication jade talisman in Gu Qingfeng's hand vibrated, and inside it was the news from Hongye.

"Your Excellency, I have already entered the Eastern Region of the Ancient Realm, and thirty-six of the three hundred secret guards have been killed!"

"Everything is going according to plan!"

Gu Qingfeng replied.

He obtained these communication jade talismans from other cultivators. Normally, each communication jade talisman has specific restrictions and is difficult for outsiders to use.

But these restrictions were useless in front of Gu Qingfeng. He easily tampered with the restrictions and used all the communication jade talismans belonging to other forces for his own use.

Do it.

For convenience, Gu Qingfeng also contacted Hongye and others later.

In fact.

Even if Hongye had not sent a message, Gu Qingfeng would have known through the information panel that the other party had already entered the Eastern Region.

Three hundred people.

Thirty-six people were killed.

This injury was within Gu Qingfeng's expectations.

After all, the overall strength of the dark guards is not too strong, and many of them only remain at the organ refining stage. There are not many who can truly break through to the master level, let alone the grand master level.

Up to now, the only grand masters among the secret guards are the few people who were promoted by Gu Qingfeng with elixirs. Apart from them, there are no other grand masters.

and so.

Even if Grandmaster Hongye led the team personally and they were carrying a consumable ancient weapon, it would be impossible to cross the Ancient Beast Mountains without losing any manpower.

now.

It all depends on whether Hongye can truly take root in the Eastern Region.

Although the Grand Master's cultivation level is average in the Eastern Region, Hongye has been in charge of the Secret Guards for so many years and his methods are not bad either. Gu Qingfeng is also quite optimistic about him.

-

At the snap of your fingers.

A month passed.

One month.

Gu Qingfeng was in seclusion practicing and comprehending the Ancient Heavenly Sword. He was also paying attention to the movements on the information panel and contacted Hongye several times.

It was originally thought that the death of hundreds of thousands of monks in Jiuzhou would drive all forces crazy, and they would even go so far as to pay all costs and bring holy soldiers and great holy soldiers to directly overthrow the Shenwu Dynasty.

But the result.

Gu Qingfeng found that he had taken things for granted.

He both overestimated the determination of these forces and underestimated the deterrent effect of his own achievements.

From the information given by Hongye, the reputation of the Shenwu Dynasty has now spread throughout the ancient wilderness, and so has his name, Gu Qingfeng.

When various forces learned that the Shenwu Dynasty had a powerful person who was comparable to a saint, they all hesitated. Even the top holy places such as the Yuhua Holy Land did not take much action.

Gu Qingfeng is naturally happy to see this happen. (End of this chapter)
