My son is about to break through.

"Your guess is correct. The water in the Ancient World is much deeper than you and I imagined!"

"Also, the origin of the evil spirit must be complicated. For some things, we can only wait and see."

Gu Qingfeng shook his head.

"But you don't have to worry too much. With your father here, there shouldn't be any big problems for the time being."

This sentence gave Gu Yang some peace of mind.

Subsequently.

The latter couldn't help but ask: "What level is father's current strength at?"

Gu Yang couldn't help but be curious.

Gu Qingfeng's strength has always been a mystery.

Even now, every time he sees the other party take action, he feels like his cognition is refreshed.

"If I don't use other trump cards, suppressing ordinary great saints won't be a problem. If I use my trump cards, maybe I can even compete with the Quasi-Emperor!"

Gu Qingfeng said it lightly, but when his words fell into Gu Yang's ears, he was shocked inside.

Can suppress ordinary great saints!
He can even compete with the quasi-emperor!
In the ancient world, the Great Emperor is the end.

however.

Throughout the ages, there are very few strong men who can truly aspire to become the Great Emperor. In an era of great contention, let alone the Great Emperor, it is even a question whether there can be a strong man who can reach the Quasi-Emperor level.

and so.

As the most powerful being under the Great Emperor, every Quasi-Emperor is supreme.

Gu Yang also didn't expect that Gu Qingfeng's current strength was enough to compete with the Quasi-Emperor.

Shocked.

Gu Yang was ecstatic.

He had always thought that Gu Qingfeng's strength was at best at the Great Sage level, and it was even a question whether he could fight against the Holy King.

result.

Gu Yang discovered that his father had already reached the level of quasi-emperor. How could he not be surprised?

With such a powerful person in charge of the Shenwu Dynasty, it is like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea.

“However, this world is not as simple as you think. Not to mention whether those ancient forces have top powerhouses, just the various life forbidden areas contain endless dangers.

Even if he is a quasi-emperor, he may not be invincible in this era."

Gu Qingfeng looked at the other person deeply, and then gave him a warning.

Although he knew that Gu Yang always acted prudently, he also had to let him understand how deep the waters of the ancient world were, so as to prevent him from thinking that with him in charge of the Shenwu Dynasty, they could really dominate the world without any resistance.

"That's what father taught you!"

Gu Yang's face became serious and he immediately suppressed the excitement in his heart.

But having said that.

He can understand it too.

How significant is the significance of a quasi-emperor.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng looked at the stone tablet and said, "This stone tablet was left by the Taiyi Divine Dynasty. It has a bit of the Dao rhyme of the former Quasi-Emperor, but with the passage of time, this Dao rhyme has become extremely weak.

This Dao rhyme is useless to me, but for ordinary cultivators, it is also a great opportunity.

You can take this stone tablet back with you and see if you can comprehend something from it."

"Yes!"

Gu Yang could naturally see the unusualness of the stone tablet. After all, this was suspected to be something left behind by a quasi-emperor.

Not to mention the Quasi-Emperor Daoyun above, the stone tablet itself is also an extraordinary treasure.

Subsequently.

Gu Yang took the stone tablet and left.

Looking at the lobby in front of him, Gu Qingfeng shook his head slightly: "Taiyi Divine Dynasty... strange black energy, it is not so easy to truly see the truth of this world."

The ninth level of the Saint Realm!
It's not enough to be able to cope with everything.

But Gu Qingfeng also knew that he could not break through to the Great Saint Realm just because he wanted to.

For now.

At least we have to wait for some time.

After all, in the Dharma-Ending Age, no saints will appear. If one wants to make a breakthrough in this era, one can only do so through other means. It is absolutely difficult to break through by relying on one's own cultivation.

then.

Gu Qingfeng called someone over.

"This subordinate greets the owner of the manor!"

Gu Peng bowed respectfully.

Gu Qingfeng's gaze fell on the person in front of him. After many years, Gu Peng's cultivation had also made a breakthrough, and now he had firmly stepped into the third level of the Divine Transformation Realm.

The other party was able to break through so quickly, not because of Gu Peng’s strong talent, but because of the large amount of pills that were forced into his body.

After all, Gu Qingfeng obtained too many elixirs from the information panel, among which the Divine Blood Pill was of great benefit to the cultivators in the Divine Transformation Realm. In addition, the Gu Family Village was powerful and had abundant resources.

As the manager of Gujiazhuang, it goes without saying that Gu Peng’s strength has improved.

Not bad.

That's the general manager.

Gu Peng had ceased to be the head of the outer hall several years ago, and instead became the steward of Gujiazhuang, in charge of the affairs of both the inner and outer halls. As for the original head of the outer hall, he was replaced by other people.

"How many disciples does Zhuangnei have now?"

"Master, there are now 1,800 outer hall disciples, 380 inner hall disciples, and 36 law enforcement hall disciples!"

Gu Peng answered without hesitation.

For him, the situation in Gujiazhuang was well known.

Gu Qingfeng asked: "How is your strength?"

"Most of the outer hall disciples are now at the level of refining organs, a hundred of them have reached the level of Grandmaster, and three of them are great Grandmasters!"

"There are 200 Grand Masters and 30 Grand Masters among the inner hall disciples!"

"The thirty-six people in the Law Enforcement Hall are all Grand Masters!"

Gu Peng answered truthfully.

Hear the words.

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly.

Strictly speaking, including the Law Enforcement Hall, the total number of disciples in Gujiazhuang is less than 2,200.

Among such a large number of disciples, it is naturally considered quite good to have three hundred masters and sixty-nine great masters.

At least.

In Kyushu.

No other underworld force can be compared with Gujiazhuang.

After all, it has only been twenty-three years since the Shenwu Dynasty established its rule over the Nine Provinces.

In other words.

The peak of his practice has only lasted for twenty-three years.

Before the Shenwu Dynasty established its rule over the Nine Provinces, there were not many cultivators in the martial arts world, let alone grand masters, and even those who had entered the realm of masters.

Now, over the past twenty years, even though the various martial arts sects have experienced explosive growth, it is not easy to reach the Grandmaster level.

and so.

In Gu Qingfeng's opinion, with the power of Gujiazhuang, even if he and the Shenwu Dynasty are not included, it is enough to look down on many sects in the world.

After Gu Peng finished speaking, he stood aside, waiting for Gu Qingfeng to speak.

half an hour.

Gu Qingfeng put away his thoughts and said slowly: "If a force wants to grow, other aspects are also indispensable. We can dig deeper. If there are disciples who are talented in alchemy, refining, or formations, we can focus on training them.

Those with outstanding talents can be brought to meet me!"

As Gujiazhuang has developed to this point, some things should be improved.

Gu Peng's face was difficult: "There is no real cultivator in alchemy and refining in the village now. I am afraid it is not that easy to tap the potential of other disciples."

“This is a simple matter. There are many techniques in the manor that involve alchemy, refining, and formations. Let them study them on their own.

If you can reach the first level within three years by yourself, you can be considered to have some talent."

Gu Qingfeng looked indifferent.

He is a sixth-rank master of formations, so he can occasionally give some pointers on formations. As for alchemy and refining, although Gu Qingfeng is not good at them, there are people who are good at them.

For example, the Taixu Holy Land. This ancient holy land has a great heritage.

Given the relationship between the Shenwu Dynasty and the Taixu Holy Land, the Gu family sent several disciples to the Taixu Holy Land, and the latter would not be able to refuse.

Big deal.

The Gu family just has to pay some price.

Hear the words.

Gu Peng naturally accepted the order.

"Also, I remember that the positions of the head of the Inner Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall have been vacant for a long time, right?"

"Does the owner of the manor have a candidate?"

"Let Shengxing and Shengan come to Gujiazhuang together!"

"Yes!"

Gu Peng took the order and withdrew.

……

Half a day later.

Gu Shengxing and Gu Shengan came together.

"My grandson pays homage to Grandpa Huang!"

"No need to be polite."

Gu Qingfeng looked at the two people in front of him. They were both calm and composed, without any trace of their former arrogance.

"Do you know why I called you here today?"

"My grandson doesn't know."

Gu Shengxing and the other person looked at each other and shook their heads.

Since they got married, they both had their own mansions, so they had moved out of Gujiazhuang for a long time. Naturally, they had no idea why Gu Qingfeng suddenly summoned them.

Gu Qingfeng did not beat around the bush and said bluntly: "The positions of the head of the inner hall and the law enforcement hall of Gujiazhuang are vacant. These two positions cannot be filled by people other than the Gu family.

Now, one of your two uncles is in the Taixu Holy Land, and the other is in the demon world, so it is impossible for you to come back.

As for your eldest sister, she has now left Jiuzhou to gain experience. Your two younger sisters’ martial arts skills are too poor. After much thought, I think only you two can take on the positions of the two hall masters.

I just wonder what you two think about this?"

This statement came out.

Gu Shengxing and Gu Shengan both looked very happy.

The master of a hall!
If it were from other sects, they would naturally look down on it.

After all, as princes, both of them have a respected status. In ordinary sects, let alone the head of a hall, even the head of a sect is nothing in front of them.

But Gujiazhuang is different. It is the ancestral land of the Shenwu Dynasty and the origin of the Gu family bloodline.

To put it bluntly.

The Gu family is not only the largest family in Jiuzhou, but also surpasses many saintly families in the entire ancient world.

This way.

If you can be the head of the Gu family, you will be extraordinary.

and so.

Neither of them had any hesitation.

"Grandson will obey Grandpa Huang's orders!"

"it is good."

Gu Qingfeng nodded.

“Then from today on, Shengxing will be the head of the Inner Hall, and Shengan will be the head of the Law Enforcement Hall. However, both the Inner Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall have Grandmaster-level cultivators.

You two are now at the Grandmaster level, but it is still difficult for you to truly take charge of the overall situation.

I will give you one year to break through to the Grandmaster level. As for the resources for cultivation, the manor will fully supply them."

"My grandson will do his best!"

Both of them nodded.

Breaking through to the Grandmaster level within one year seems impossible.

After all, whether it is Gu Shengxing or Gu Shengan, they are only at the late stage of Grandmaster, more than one step away from Grandmaster.

but.

If there are enough resources, it is not impossible to break through to the Grandmaster level in a short period of time.

Seeing that the two men had determined expressions, Gu Qingfeng didn't waste any words. He just waved his sleeves and several gourds filled with pills appeared directly in front of them.

"One gourd contains the Golden Body Pill, which can be used by the Grandmaster to temper his physical body. One gourd contains the True Meaning Pill, which can be used by cultivators to comprehend the True Meaning. The other gourd contains the Divine Blood Pill."

“This kind of elixir is supposed to be taken by cultivators in the Divine Transformation Realm to strengthen their own Qi and blood. If you have not entered the Divine Transformation Realm, it will be difficult for you to truly withstand the power of a complete Divine Blood Pill.

Therefore, when taking it, you need to dilute the Divine Blood Pill a hundred times, then slowly refine it and take it."

Gu Qingfeng spoke.

Each person has three gourds, and each gourd contains twenty pills.

These pills are naturally the rewards given by the information panel.

It’s just that the jade bottle is precious and Gu Qingfeng has his own uses for it, so he puts it in a gourd.

With so many elixirs, Gu Qingfeng believed that, let alone breaking through to the Grandmaster level, even taking a further step based on the Grandmaster level would not be a big problem.

"Thank you, Grandpa Emperor!!"

Both of them were overjoyed.

They had of course heard of the names of the three kinds of elixirs, and they had even taken the Golden Body Pill themselves, so they naturally understood how powerful this kind of elixir was.

As the Divine Blood Pill is a medicine that can only be taken by those at the Divine Transformation Realm, the two of them understand how precious it is.

originally.

They were not very confident about breaking through to the Grandmaster realm within a year, but now that they have the elixir in their hands, the chance of breaking through is at least more than 90%, if not 100%.

Seeing the two of them put away the pills, Gu Qingfeng waved his hand.

"Okay, I've given you everything I should have. As for how far you can go, that depends on your own luck."

"Grandson, resign!"

……

Out of Gujiazhuang.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief instinctively, and looking at the sunshine outside, they couldn't help but smile.

"Second brother, now it depends on you and me, who will break through to the Grandmaster level first!"

Gu Shengan looked at the person in front of him and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the latter smiled confidently: "Don't worry, your second brother will definitely not break through slower than you."

"Then we'll see."

Gu Shengan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sense of competitiveness rose in his heart.

The two grew up together and have been comparing with each other since they were young. Even though they are older now and their competitive spirit has faded a lot, they still avoid the idea of ​​comparing with each other.

Subsequently.

The two of them didn't say anything more and left together.

……

The following days.

Gu Qingfeng returned to his former tranquility.

period.

Gu Shengan sent someone to bring Gu Yunfeng over, under the pretext of enhancing their mutual affection.

In this regard.

Gu Qingfeng did not refuse either.

Gu Qingfeng had not met his great-great-grandson many times, but after all, he was a member of the Gu family, so he was naturally close to him.

However, compared to Gu Qingfeng, Xu Yulan was quite fond of Gu Yunfeng. Moreover, she herself was already a ninth-level cultivator in the Dao Palace Realm, and her cultivation level was among the top three in the entire Shenwu Dynasty.

and so.

Xu Yulan often guided Gu Yunfeng in his cultivation.

This way.

This saved Gu Qingfeng a lot of effort.

Faced with this kind of thing, Gu Qingfeng naturally had no reason to refuse. (End of this chapter)
