My son is about to break through.

Gujiazhuang.

Lobby.

Gu Qingfeng has come out of retreat, and in front of him is Gu Yang, who has been in high position for a long time.

"The child has seen his father!"

Gu Yang looked as respectful as always.

Even though he has already entered the fifth level of the Dao Palace Realm, with the luck of the entire Shenwu Dynasty and the power of the Divine Phoenix Tower, he can compete with real saints.

But when Gu Qingfeng appeared in front of him, Gu Yang still felt he was unfathomable.

"Fifth level of Dao Palace Realm, it seems that you have completely refined the inner elixir of that Saint Realm beast!"

Even if Gu Qingfeng didn't look at the information panel, he could tell at a glance what state Gu Yang was in now.

The fifth level of Dao Palace realm!
Looking at the entire ancient world, they can be considered strong.

Moreover, with Gu Yang's talent, it would not be a big problem for him to reach the ninth peak of the Dao Palace Realm or the Semi-Saint Realm before the arrival of the Great Conflict.

Subsequently.

He said again.

"You are not in the palace to handle government affairs today, how can you have time to come back to the manor?"

"There is something strange happening in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range. I still need my father to make the decision!"

When Gu Yang mentioned the words "Ancient Beast Mountain Range", his expression became much more serious.

Hear the words.

Gu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, but his expression did not change significantly.

"Tell me more about it."

From the information panel, he knew that some changes had occurred in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, but he was not sure about the specific reasons for the time being.

but.

The fact that Gu Yang came here in person to deal with the matter at the Ancient Beast Mountain was enough to show how unusual it was.

Gu Yang did not hesitate and said immediately: "A month ago, a strange black fog appeared in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, which swallowed up an army of a thousand people. Many Dao Palace Realm beasts were trapped in the black fog and disappeared without a trace."

“As the black fog expanded, I asked a ninth-level Dao Palace cultivator from the imperial court to carry the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and go in to investigate.

But they found corpses everywhere in the black fog, and some strange beings revived. If the ninth-level Dao Palace Realm master had not left in time, he would have been completely buried in it..."

“Later, I personally brought the Phoenix Tower into the cave, but unfortunately, I still could not find out the origin of the black fog. However, I did attract the strange existence in the depths of the black fog to take action.

At the critical moment, it was fortunate that the Phoenix Tower protected me, otherwise I would not have been able to get out of there."

Speaking of it.

Gu Yang suddenly ripped open his clothes, revealing his chest, leaving a black palm print on it. A cold and strange aura lingered around, as if it was constantly corroding his blood.

"The power of evil!"

Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly after seeing the black palm print.

"Not bad!"

"It's the power of evil!"

Gu Yang smiled bitterly.

“There must be a saint-level evil spirit hidden in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, or even stronger than a saint. If it is an ordinary evil spirit, even if I cannot suppress it, I can still escape unscathed.”

"only--"

"I've never heard of such a level of evil spirits existing before!"

Speaking of the back.

Gu Yang's expression also turned ugly.

Before the founding of the Shenwu Dynasty, the most powerful evil spirit in Jiuzhou was the disaster-level evil spirit.

That kind of evil spirit.

His strength is comparable to that of the Divine Transformation Realm.

After the founding of the Shenwu Dynasty, weak evil spirits like these had completely disappeared, and were replaced by more powerful evil spirits.

Such evil spirits.

It was also named as a natural disaster-level evil spirit by the Shenwu Dynasty.

Simultaneously.

In order to more clearly analyze the power of the disaster-level evil spirits, the Shenwu Dynasty divided them into three grades from high to low.

among them.

The evil spirits of the lower level of natural disasters are equivalent to the realm of Dao Palace.

As for the evil spirits in the middle level of natural disasters, they are comparable to the saint realm.

For example, the drought demon that appeared in Shenhe County was labeled as a mid-level natural disaster.

same.

That was also the most powerful evil spirit that the Shenwu Dynasty had ever encountered.

Gu Yang originally thought that the drought demon that was killed by Gu Qingfeng was already the strongest among all the evil spirits.

But now the evil spirit that appeared in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range suddenly woke Gu Yang up.

"According to my judgment, the strength of that evil spirit is probably at the top level even among the middle-grade natural disasters, but it should not have entered the category of the upper-grade natural disasters.

Otherwise, even with the protection of the Phoenix Tower, I may not be able to walk out alive!"

Although the Divine Phoenix Tower is powerful, the top-grade evil spirits of natural disasters are already at the level of Great Saints. Naturally, they cannot be countered by a Dao Palace Realm possessing a Great Saint weapon.

After all.

The Dao Palace Realm is not enough to fully unleash the power of the Great Saint Soldier.

"What I am most worried about right now is that if we allow this kind of evil to grow stronger, it may one day transform into a natural disaster of the highest grade.

If it really comes to that, the problem will become even more serious!"

This is another issue that Gu Yang is worried about.

The more living beings the evil spirit kills, the stronger it becomes.

For example, in the past, any random disaster-level evil spirit had the ability to destroy an entire prefecture, and some powerful disaster-level evil spirits could even turn an entire state into a place of death.

Although the current strength of the Shenwu Dynasty is far beyond the reach of the previous dynasty, if a top-grade evil spirit of natural disaster were to be born, the Shenwu Dynasty would have no chance of contending.

It was only because of Gu Qingfeng's presence that Gu Yang was not so panicked.

otherwise.

He was already making preparations to lead the people of Kyushu to move to other places.

After all, if there is no corresponding force to match, once the evil spirit sets its sights on Jiuzhou, with its terrifying strength, it will be easy for it to turn Jiuzhou into a place of death.

When Gu Yang finished speaking, Gu Qingfeng suddenly swung out with a palm, and the powerful blood and energy as strong as the sun poured into the opponent's body. Then Gu Yang heard a sharp and piercing scream in his ears.

next moment.

The black palm print on his chest turned into billowing black smoke and dissipated.

In less than a few breaths, all the palm prints disappeared without a trace, and the cold aura that was always attached to Gu Yang and tried to devour his blood also disappeared.

"Thank you father for taking the initiative!"

Gu Yang's expression relaxed.

This palm print was like a thorn in his side, threatening him all the time.

It was only because of Gu Yang's profound cultivation and the protection of the Divine Phoenix Tower that he was able to withstand the erosion of such power. If it were any other Taoist cultivator, he would have completely turned into a mummy by now.

For Gu Qingfeng, it was an easy task to dispel the evil power in Gu Yang.

Not to mention that his current strength can make any breakthroughs, even in the past, it would not be difficult to deal with such evil forces.

"The origin of the evil spirit is not as simple as you think. The evil spirit that caused trouble in Jiuzhou was nothing at all.

A truly powerful evil spirit, even I, your father, am not sure I can handle it."

After easily relieving Gu Yang of the crisis, Gu Qingfeng spoke. His words.

Gu Yang's expression changed.

But before Gu Yang could speak, Gu Qingfeng continued.

"but……"

"There's really no big problem with this evil spirit in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range. As long as it hasn't reached the upper level of natural disaster, it won't be a big deal after all."

Gu Qingfeng paused here.

"But no matter what, this kind of evil spirit cannot be underestimated. Your father will personally deal with it. Before this problem is solved, please do not let anyone go to the Ancient Beast Mountain Range to avoid unnecessary casualties."

"I have already given the order to temporarily withdraw from the Ancient Beast Mountain Range!"

Gu Yang's expression relaxed, and then he nodded.

After learning about the terrifying evil in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, Gu Yang ordered an evacuation early on, even if it meant giving up years of accumulation.

As long as the army is still there, the abandoned things can be taken back sooner or later.

But if all the elite troops were killed by the evil spirits, it would be an unimaginable blow to the Shenwu Dynasty.

How could Gu Yang not understand how to make the choice?

Now, hearing that Gu Qingfeng was willing to take action personally, Gu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as my father is willing to come forward, there won't be any problem.

……

Qingyun Prefecture.

In front of Tianxiong Pass.

The army is stationed.

Millions of elite troops are now stationed here.

This is because Tianxiong Pass is the first line of defense between Qingyun Province and the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, and it is also the most important line of defense.

If the evil spirits emerge from the Ancient Beast Mountains, Tianxiong Pass will be the first to be hit.

If Tianxiong Pass is destroyed, not only Datong Prefecture will be affected, but Guangyang Prefecture and other places in Qingyun Prefecture will also be affected.

that time.

The number of casualties is bound to be large.

and so.

The army will be stationed here, and be prepared to fight to the death if evil spirits appear.

"I've met Grandpa Huang!"

At Tianxiong Pass, Gu Shengan, wearing military armor, looked at the person in front of him with awe.

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly, a rare smile appearing on his face.

"It's been a few years since we last met, but you've matured a lot and your cultivation has improved a lot. It looks like it won't be long before you break through to the Grandmaster level!"

The Gu Shengan in front of him was much more mature and stable than before, and his cultivation had also broken through to the late Grandmaster level.

At the age of 27, his cultivation has reached the late stage of Grandmaster, which is considered quite good in Jiuzhou.

If it is placed in the ancient world, it is actually the same.

After all, this age.

This means that the other party has the opportunity to reach the realm of divine transformation within a hundred years.

And being able to break through the Divine Transformation Realm within a hundred years means that the other party will be able to enter the Dao Palace Realm within a thousand years.

In the entire ancient world, cultivators who can enter the Dao Palace realm can be called strong, but only a few can truly enter the Dao Palace realm within a thousand years.

For more monks, it may take three to five thousand years, or even their entire lifetime to break through this realm.

and so.

A breakthrough level like Gu Shengan’s is naturally not bad.

but.

If compared with his father and two uncles, he is far behind.

No matter whether it is Gu Yang or Gu Xuan Gu Xiu, they have all entered the Dao Palace Realm, and Gu Xiu has even broken through to the seventh level of the Dao Palace Realm.

To know.

Gu Xiu is only in his early forties now.

This level of the seventh level of Dao Palace Realm, you can see how terrifying it is.

Even for the so-called top geniuses, the standard is to break through the Dao Palace realm within 200 years old.

In other words.

The talents of cultivators who can enter the Dao Palace before the age of two hundred are truly top-notch.

It’s just that the term “top genius” is a general term. Just like although they are all semi-saints, some semi-saints can hardly defeat a ninth-level Dao Palace realm master, while some semi-saints can already kill a great saint. It’s the same principle.

Entering the Dao Palace realm within two hundred years is just the threshold for the top geniuses.

The more talented one is, the faster one can break through.

Of course.

There are also some people who have obtained incredible opportunities and thus have an astonishing speed of cultivation, but whether it is talent or other opportunities, they are actually part of their own advantages.

If it weren't for the outstanding performance of Gu Yang and others, Gu Shengan would also be eye-catching.

But now, it can only be evaluated as good.

Hearing Gu Qingfeng's words, Gu Shengan couldn't help but smile, and his previous composure seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

"It has been a long time since I have been able to serve Grandpa Huang!"

Gu Qingfeng heard this, glanced at him, and then smiled and said: "Well, if you have time, you can go back to Gujiazhuang and live for a while. Changing the environment will also be conducive to your cultivation."

"My grandson understands!"

Gu Shengan's face immediately lit up with joy.

Of course, he could understand the meaning of these words.

Nowadays, not everyone can go to Gujiazhuang if they want to, and Gu Qingfeng is in seclusion all year round, so even if you go, you may not be able to see him.

Now that he had received Gu Qingfeng's personal promise, it was a great surprise for Gu Shengan.

If he could get Gu Qingfeng's guidance, Gu Shengan believed that it would be much easier for him to break through to the Grandmaster level.

Notice.

In today's Jiuzhou, the Grandmaster is nothing anymore. Even the Grandmaster is just barely worthy of being called a top master.

Only by entering the realm of divine transformation can one be considered to have the initial qualifications to become a strong person.

However, Gu Shengan also knew that it would take time for him to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm, but it would not be a bad thing to break through to the Grandmaster level faster.

at this time.

Gu Qingfeng's gaze was already looking in the direction of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range. In his sight, there was a thick black fog that seemed to cover the sky and the sun, and in that strange black fog, there was an atmosphere of death and coldness.

When Gu Qingfeng's eyes were about to penetrate the black fog and see the scene inside clearly, he saw the black fog shake and a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly appeared.

In an instant.

Eyes facing each other.

A terrifying and chaotic divine power suddenly rushed over.

If an ordinary cultivator were hit by such divine power, he would easily be contaminated by the chaotic power. In the mildest case, his mind would be damaged and he would become idiot. In the worst case, he would be more likely to lose his original heart and degenerate into evil.

but.

This level of spiritual attack would naturally not be able to shake Gu Qingfeng in the slightest.

Gu Qingfeng's eyes were filled with the light of the sun, which not only shattered the chaotic thoughts, but also blasted into the black fog, causing it to surge endlessly, and even showed signs of disintegration. (End of this chapter)
