My son is about to break through.

City Lord's Mansion.

Lord Fu and Gu Qingfeng took their seats respectively. The city lord who was originally in charge of managing Taixu City was actually an elder of the Taixu Holy Land, and now he was just sitting at the lower position.

no way.

Lord Fu is a ninth-level powerful man in the Dao Palace realm, and the master of the ninth peak. His status and position are respected, second only to the Holy Lord of Taixu Holy Land.

As for the other person.

Although the other party is not from the Taixu Holy Land, he is an unparalleled powerful person who is suspected to be on par with a saint.

In this regard.

A mere ordinary elder of the Taixu Holy Land is naturally nothing.

"I have long heard of Fellow Daoist Gu's reputation, and now that I have seen him, I know the rumors are true!"

Lord Fu smiled slightly and was quite polite to Gu Qingfeng in his words.

Before meeting Gu Qingfeng, he still had some doubts about the strength of this strongest man in Jiuzhou.

But after actually meeting Gu Qingfeng, Lord Fu realized that the rumors were true.

In his eyes, Gu Qingfeng today was like an unfathomable abyss, as if his seemingly ordinary body contained a terrifying power that could destroy the world.

Lord Fu was very sure.

If I fight with this person, I will definitely be defeated.

for this result.

Lord Fu was shocked, but he also felt it was reasonable.

After all, the person in front of him has a record of defeating the holy soldiers.

"Friend Fu, you are too kind!"

Gu Qingfeng also looked polite.

"Fellow Daoist Fu has a profound level of cultivation. I'm afraid he is only a step away from the legendary semi-saint realm. When the great era of contention arrives, Fellow Daoist Fu will surely have a place among the saints of the world!"

at this point.

Gu Qingfeng didn't lie.

With his current eyesight, he could naturally see that the Lord Fu in front of him had a strong foundation, and his blood and energy were much stronger than those of ordinary Taoists in the ninth level.

more importantly.

According to Gu Qingfeng's understanding.

This guy isn't too old.

At least.

When the great era of contention arrives, it won’t be a problem.

With his talent and background, if he really reaches that era, he will have a good chance of attaining enlightenment and becoming a saint.

Gu Qingfeng's words made Fu Shenjun smile a little more: "In that case, I appreciate your kind words, Daoist Gu. Daoist Gu came to Taixu City this time. Could it be that you want to meet Gu Xuan?"

"This is one of them."

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly, but he could see from the information panel that Gu Xuan was not in Taixu Holy Land at the moment.

as predicted.

When Gu Qingfeng finished speaking, Fu Shenjun looked regretful and said, "Gu Xuan and other disciples of Taixu Holy Land are currently training in the secret realm, and I'm afraid they won't be able to come out in a short time.

If possible, Fellow Daoist Gu can go with me to the Ninth Peak of Taixu Holy Land to stay temporarily and wait for Gu Xuan's return."

Faced with such a strong man, Lord Fu naturally hopes to lure him into the Taixu Holy Land.

even though.

Gu Qingfeng was a powerful man in Jiuzhou, and his descendants even established the Shenwu Dynasty.

but--

Who also stipulated that the other party cannot join other forces.

It is normal for many geniuses from small forces to try their best to join other big forces.

of course.

It is impossible to get Gu Qingfeng to join the Taixu Holy Land.

After all, with this person's cultivation level, no one in Taixu Holy Land is qualified to guide him.

But if he were to become a guest official or elder of Taixu Holy Land, then it would be considered a relationship.

However, facing the invitation of Lord Fu, Gu Qingfeng shook his head slightly: "Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist Fu, but I still have other things to do on this trip, so I'm afraid I can't go to Taixu Holy Land."

Hear the words.

Lord Fu's expression changed slightly: "I don't know what's the matter with Fellow Daoist Gu. Although Taixu Holy Land is not rich in resources, it does have some foundation in the Eastern Region.

If necessary, Taixu Holy Land can also lend a hand!"

"This is the grudge between my Gu family and the Southern Territory forces. It would be bad if the Taixu Holy Land was involved."

Gu Qingfeng shook his head and refused.

However, when he mentioned the Southern Territory's forces, Lord Fu's expression changed again and again.

The Lord of the Ninth Peak had never expected that the Gu family would be involved with the forces in the Southern Region.

As if he saw Lord Fu's doubts, Gu Qingfeng did not hide anything and spoke directly.

"Gu has a third son who is not doing well. He was surrounded and killed by many forces in the Southern Region. Later, he entered the ancient teleportation array and his whereabouts are unknown. As a father, I naturally cannot sit idly by and watch."

"How dare you! What force dares to attack the descendants of Fellow Daoist Gu!"

Lord Fu had a stern expression on his face, and seemed to be extremely furious about this matter.

Gu Qingfeng said: "There are many forces taking action, and among them, the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land is the enemy, so I came here this time to borrow the teleportation array of Taixu City and go to the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land!"

"Ancient Wasteland Holy Land!"

When he heard this name, Lord Fu's expression became much more solemn.

"Fellow Daoist Gu is planning to attack the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land?"

"nature."

“The Ancient Wasteland Holy Land has a strong heritage. A hundred thousand years ago, a Saint King-level warrior emerged from the land. Although that Saint King has undoubtedly passed away, there is still a heritage left behind.

It’s not that I look down on Fellow Daoist Gu, but the heritage of these ancient holy places is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

If you really want to take action, you need to think twice before you act!"

After learning that Gu Qingfeng was going to attack the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, Lord Fu no longer had the anger he had just shown. Instead, his expression straightened and he expressed his opinion.

Gu Qingfeng asked: "Could it be that Fellow Daoist Fu knows something?"

Hearing this, Lord Fu pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.

"Well, Gu Xuan is my Ninth Peak's true disciple, and Fellow Daoist Gu can be considered half a Ninth Peak person. There is no need for me to hide some secrets."

Speaking of it.

Lord Fu looked at Gu Qingfeng with a serious look.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, do you think that ancient holy places like our Taixu Holy Land, which have been passed down for tens or even millions of years, rely on something to ensure that their heritage will not be destroyed?"

"Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist Fu!"

Gu Qingfeng's expression also became much more serious.

He understands.

Maybe I will be able to know some secrets next.

Although the secret guards have already infiltrated the ancient world, the information they can actually obtain is only superficial. It is not so easy to find out the real deep secrets.

Lord Fu said: "All the ancient forces that have been passed down for many years actually have their own foundations. For example, our Taixu Holy Land actually has saints living in the world!"

"saint!?"

Gu Qingfeng's expression changed slightly.

"As far as I know, there shouldn't be any saints born in this era!"

"Gu Daoyou is right. It is true that no saints can be born in this era. But what if these saints are not the strong ones of this era?"

Lord Fu asked back, causing Gu Qingfeng to fall into deep thought.

Lord Fu added: "Any ancient holy land actually has the means to seal itself. Any strong person whose life span has not yet ended can seal himself up and wait for the opportunity."

"Normally speaking, the strong ones who are worthy of being sealed are at least at the Saint level."

"But there are also some peerless geniuses and evildoers who were born at the wrong time. Their forces will spend a huge price to seal them up and wait for the arrival of the great era of contention before fighting again."

"However, this method of sealing also has disadvantages. That is, once sealed, it is very difficult to attack again. If you force yourself to wake up and attack, you will have to pay a greater price to seal yourself again."

“There is a saint sleeping in my Taixu Holy Land. As a holy land with an even older heritage, there must be more saints sleeping in the Guhuang Holy Land. Maybe even a great saint can emerge.

Fellow Daoist Gu is indeed quite capable, but if he were to face the Great Sage, he might not be able to escape unscathed."

“So, if you want to attack the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, Brother Gu needs to think twice before acting!”

Lord Fu naturally did not want Gu Qingfeng to die at the hands of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land. After all, this would not do any good for the Taixu Holy Land.

The living Gu Qingfeng is more important than the dead Gu Qingfeng.

Now that the era of great contention is about to come, if Taixu Holy Land wants to return to its peak, it must win over all the forces that can be won over.

otherwise.

If it really comes to that, Taixu Holy Land may not be able to gain any benefit.

Although the Taixu Holy Land has an ancient heritage and there are sleeping saints, saints are not uncommon in the era of great contention. There are even some extraordinary monsters who can enter the realm of great saints, or even the higher realm of saint kings.

and so.

Lord Fu naturally didn't want Gu Qingfeng to go to the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land to die.

Not bad!

It's just suicide!

In the eyes of Lord Fu, what Gu Qingfeng is doing now is tantamount to courting his own destruction.

Just to save the other person's face, what he said was relatively tactful.

"Thank you for your kindness, Daoyou Fu. However, I have already made up my mind about this matter. Although Gu Xiu is not very ambitious, he is still my son after all. How can I allow others to bully him?"

"When this matter is over, I will definitely come to Taixu Holy Land to visit Fellow Daoist Fu!"

Gu Qingfeng had no intention of backing down from Lord Fu's kindness, but from the other party's mouth, he had gained some understanding of the strength of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land.

Seeing that Gu Qingfeng was so persistent, Lord Fu could not continue to persuade him.

The two talked for a while, and then Gu Qingfeng stood up and said goodbye.

After Gu Qingfeng left, Lord Fu returned to Taixu Holy Land and met the Holy Lord of Taixu Holy Land directly.

After Lord Fu told everything, Taixu Saint Lord Yan Lingyun raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Master Fu Feng has met that Tyrant Sword. What do you think of his strength?"

"Unfathomable!"

Lord Fu only used four words to describe it.

the end.

He added another sentence.

"If that person doesn't die, when the great era of contention arrives, it will definitely not be as simple as stopping at the Saint Realm!"

"To be praised by Master Fu Feng, it seems that this person is indeed extraordinary."

Yan Lingyun nodded slightly.

He did not doubt Lord Fu's vision. Since he could make this man say the word "unfathomable", his strength was obvious.

Subsequently.

Yan Lingyun said: "It's a pity that the foundation of my Taixu Holy Land is not as good as that of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, especially the demons that caused trouble back then, which caused the Holy Land to suffer heavy losses.

Although there are saints who have sealed themselves in the holy land today, that is also the last foundation of the holy land.

Moreover, the life span of these sleeping saints is short. If they are forcibly awakened, they may not be able to survive until the arrival of the Great Struggle Era."

Yan Lingyun understood Lord Fu’s idea. He simply wanted the Taixu Holy Land to step in and at least save Gu Qingfeng’s life.

But as the lord of the holy land, Yan Lingyun has to consider issues more comprehensively.

It is undeniable.

The Gu family has a descendant who has joined the Taixu Holy Land, and the relationship between the two sides is relatively close. In addition, Gu Qingfeng's strength and potential are worthy of investment by the Taixu Holy Land.

But if it affects the foundation of the holy land, then we have to think carefully about it.

In this regard.

Lord Fu is also very clear about it.

The purpose of his visit was just to inform Yan Lingyun of the matter and then wait for the other party's decision.

half an hour.

Yan Lingyun said: "However, since the saint cannot wake up, I will take the Taixu Ancient Mirror to the Southern Region. You should come with me!"

“Taixu Ancient Mirror!!”

When Lord Fu heard these words, his heart was suddenly shaken.

The Taixu Ancient Mirror is the most precious treasure of the Taixu Holy Land. It is a great weapon left behind by the great sage of the past and must not be used easily.

Now that Yan Lingyun is willing to use the Great Sage Soldiers, it is obvious that he is optimistic about Gu Qingfeng's future.

……

The mountains tower up to the sky, as if supporting the heaven and the earth. There are also peaks stacked up one after another, and jade-like buildings appear and disappear. From time to time, spiritual beasts and birds gather, and monks turn into rainbow light and disappear.

Here.

It is the ancient holy land.

An ancient force in the southern region of the ancient world.

This day.

Suddenly, the void collapsed and shattered, and a terrifying hand fell down to suppress the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, as if it wanted to completely wipe out the entire Ancient Wasteland Holy Land.

at the same time.

A divine light burst out from the ancient holy land, transforming into an elliptical light shield that protected the entire holy land.

When the palm hit the light shield, the light shield suddenly shook violently, and then in the shocked eyes of many monks, dense cracks emerged, and in an instant they occupied everything.

"boom--"

When the crack reaches a certain critical point, the light shield shatters.

"Who dares to cause trouble in my Ancient Holy Land?!"

As the light shield shattered, more than a dozen extremely powerful auras suddenly burst out from the Ancient Holy Land. One after another, powerful men tore through the void and appeared. When they looked up at the sky, their eyes were filled with anger and shock.

The protective formation of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land is of saint level. It is impossible to shake this formation at all unless a strong person at the saint level takes action.

Now that the formation was broken in an instant, these powerful men were naturally shocked.

at this time.

The void shattered.

A figure in green shirt walked out slowly.

"Who are you and why are you causing trouble in my Ancient Wasteland Holy Land!"

The ancient holy lord Qi Jun looked at the cultivator in front of him with an extremely cold expression, but he did not take action immediately.

It was because the person in front of him gave him an unfathomable feeling, and the fact that the other party broke the holy land's formation with just one encounter made Qi Jun secretly fearful.

Gu Qingfeng put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "I am Gu Qingfeng!"

When hearing this name, a hint of doubt emerged on Qi Jun's face, and then he thought of something, and his eyes became more solemn when he looked at Gu Qingfeng.

"You are Gu Qingfeng!"

"We, the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, believe that we have no grudges against the Shenwu Dynasty. Why do you suddenly come here and destroy our Ancient Wasteland Holy Land's formation? What is your intention?"

"If you can't give an answer, I'm afraid this matter will not be resolved peacefully!" (End of this chapter)
