My son is about to break through.

"Has the Holy Lord mastered some heaven-defying divine power this time?"

"Such an aura is truly terrifying..."

Several immortal beings were startled by this aura and looked towards the place where Gu Qingfeng was in seclusion, their eyes filled with awe.

That aura made even Changsheng's heart tremble.

In the vast Xuan Tian Holy Land, only that Holy Lord could possess such methods.

but.

This aura came quickly and went quickly.

the other side.

Gu Qingfeng's attention is now entirely focused on himself.

Nine Heavenly Veins.

A unified whole.

It seems to contain an extremely terrifying power.

"Nine-fold increase!"

"Once I break through to the Third Tribulation Heavenly Venerable realm, I'll have a much better chance of defeating the Lord of the Heavenly Abyss!"

Gu Qingfeng smiled slightly.

This result.

It is undoubtedly good.

more importantly.

The breakthrough of the Heavenly Vein True Scripture can be considered as indirectly saving tens of billions of improvement points.

If it were a normal progression, advancing from the eighth to the ninth level would require a full 10 billion upgrade points.

A thousand years have passed.

Gu Qingfeng only has a little over a billion upgrade points.

A 10 billion yuan increase.

It would take at least ten thousand years to accumulate.

more importantly.

There are so many areas for improvement.

It might even be enough for Gu Qingfeng to break through to the level of a Three Tribulation Heavenly Venerable, or even a Four Tribulation Heavenly Venerable.

Now that he can comprehend and break through the Heavenly Vein True Scripture on his own, he will save a lot of time and effort.

This breakthrough.

This put Gu Qingfeng's mind at ease.

This secret technique is considered his powerful trump card.

nowadays.

Gu Qingfeng was just waiting for himself to break through to the Third Tribulation Heavenly Venerable level.

……

later.

Gu Qingfeng then continued his seclusion.

Everything is developing in an orderly manner.

Five hundred years after Gu Qingfeng broke through to the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein True Scripture.

Gu Xuan successfully broke through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

This is the end.

The Gu family has five venerable elders living in the world.

but.

Gu Xuan's breakthrough was within Gu Qingfeng's expectations, so Gu Qingfeng was not very surprised.

The former's breakthrough also brought him a million points of improvement.

The first thousand years.

Gu Xianlin emerged from seclusion.

They once again rushed to the front lines of the Purple Star Immortal Court.

The 1200th century.

Gu Xian's slaying of the Forbidden Zone Master in the heat of battle shocked everyone.

The name of Qingfeng Tianzun Gu Xianlin resounded throughout the entire Ziwei Immortal Court.

The opponent not only broke through to immortality in less than three thousand years after ascending to the upper realm, but now, as a newly promoted Heavenly Venerable, he has already killed a veteran Forbidden Zone Master.

For a while.

Gu Xianlin was also on the evil god clan's kill list.

……

"Your descendant, Gu Xianlin, slew the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, and the name of Qingfeng Tianzun will be known throughout the world!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xianlin, has gained the favor of the Heavenly Emperor of the Ziwei Immortal Court, who has bestowed upon him numerous cultivation resources!"

"Your offspring, 'Gu Xianlin,' has been placed on the Evil God Clan's kill list and is being secretly targeted by the Evil God Clan!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Xianlin' has been attacked by an evil god *16933251!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Xianlin' has been attacked by an evil god *23546187!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xianlin, was ambushed by the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, but managed to escape thanks to his own formidable strength!"

"Your offspring, 'Gu Xianlin,' has been severely injured by the Lord of the Forbidden Zone—"

"Your offspring, Gu Shengxing, was trapped in the Dharma-ending Age, making it difficult for him to break through in his cultivation. Therefore, he took the Elixir of Immortality and was reborn!"

"Your descendant, Gu Shengxing, has suppressed the Divine Martial Rebellion, and the name of the Divine Lord has shaken the world!"

"Your offspring..."

"Your offspring, Gu Shengan, was trapped in the Dharma-ending Age, making it difficult for him to break through in cultivation. Therefore, he took the Elixir of Immortality and was reborn!"

"Your descendant, Gu Yunfeng, has reached the end of his lifespan and passed away peacefully!"

"Your son, Gu Fengyuan, was defeated and killed in a battle with a powerful opponent!"

"Your descendant, Gu Sheng'an, was enraged by the death of his son, Gu Fengyuan, and mobilized the Divine Martial Army to annihilate an ancient sect, shocking the world!"

"Your offspring..."

……

Over the long years that followed, the information panel text continued to appear.

When Gu Qingfeng saw the news of Gu Yunfeng's death, his expression froze.

Subsequently.

He sighed.

"Without attaining the Heavenly Venerable realm, one can never achieve immortality!"

To be honest.

Now that the Gu family bloodline has grown strong, and the descendants are already countless generations away, many names are completely unfamiliar to Gu Qingfeng. No matter whether they break through or die unexpectedly, he will not have any emotional fluctuations.

but--

Gu Yunfeng is different.

As a third-generation descendant of the Gu family, Gu Qingfeng had met the other party many times and even offered him guidance on cultivation.

Now that Gu Yunfeng has fallen, Gu Qingfeng suddenly realizes that quite a long time seems to have passed since he stepped into the Upper Realm.

More than four thousand years!

For immortality, it's just a blink of an eye.

But for an ordinary cultivator, that is enough to complete their life's journey.

Even a saint only has a lifespan of seven thousand years.

If you really count it now, Gu Qingfeng is already over seven thousand years old.

The third generation of the Gu family will be roughly the same age as him.

and so.

Gu Yunfeng's demise was therefore inevitable.

As for why the other party didn't take the elixir of immortality, the reason is ultimately because the elixir of immortality is rare.

At least.

In the lower realms, immortal elixirs are extremely rare.

Even though Gu Qingfeng destroyed many forbidden zones and collected a batch of immortal medicines, it was destined that he could not satisfy all the descendants of the Gu family.

As a third-generation descendant, Gu Yunfeng is not yet qualified to take the elixir of immortality.

more importantly.

Gu Qingfeng left most of the immortal elixir to Xu Yulan in order to prolong her life.

As for Gu Shengxing and Gu Shengan, and a few other second-generation elites who received special attention, they too could obtain the elixir of immortality.

However, not all second-generation individuals possess the elixir of immortality.

Even the second generation is like this.

Not to mention three generations and beyond.

but.

The matter of the Shenwu Rebellion.

This surprised Gu Qingfeng somewhat.

Originally, he thought that with Shenwu's power and the Gu family's resources, no one should dare to challenge him.

But now it seems.

Only a few thousand years later, some people couldn't hold back any longer.

Even the fourth generation of the Gu family perished as a result.

But obviously.

These forces were destined to misjudge the Gu family's strength.

After all, the vast resources left behind by Gu Qingfeng could suppress even a Great Emperor, let alone the fact that the lower realm is currently in the Dharma Decline stage, making it even less likely to threaten the foundation of the Gu family.

Another point.

Some of the assassins were extremely loyal to the Gu family.

Although thousands of years have passed and most of the assassins have passed away peacefully, there are still some who have broken through the shackles of sainthood and stepped into the realm of great sainthood, or even the realm of saint king and quasi-emperor.

These assassins are the foundation of the Gu family's strength.

As long as these suicide soldiers survive, nothing else matters.

As for lifespan, with the Gu family's current resources, they can build an ancient city of life and seal themselves off.

Just saying.

The cost of building this ancient city was not small.

For the Gu family, it's rare for a saint to be qualified to forge an ancient city of life, but it's a different story if it's a saint king or a quasi-emperor.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng glanced at his attribute panel.

……

Name: Gu Qingfeng
Age: Immortality

Realm: Second Tribulation Celestial Venerable

The Great Dao: The Great Dao of Nirvana (Second Stage of Perfection), The Great Dao of the Underworld (Second Stage of Perfection)
Improvement Points: 2956321475
……

"2.95 billion upgrade points, another 50 million should be enough to break through to the next realm!"

Gu Qingfeng was now calm as still water. Fifty million points to improve his abilities was just a matter of a few decades at most, not a big problem.

The closer he got to the goal, the calmer he became.

Seeing Gu Yunfeng and others pass away made Gu Qingfeng understand even more the ruthlessness of time.

For him, who had already reached the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

The so-called time.

Not worth mentioning.

"almost!"

"In a few decades, I will be able to break through to the Three Tribulations Celestial Venerable Realm!"

"Today, even the Celestial Venerable may find it difficult to reverse life and death, but that doesn't mean the Immortal Celestial Venerable can't. To put it another way, if even the Immortal Celestial Venerable can't do it, then let's go even further!"

"One day, my strength will break through to the point where I can turn life and death around and reverse yin and yang—"

Gu Qingfeng pondered to himself.

If it really comes to that, the fallen descendants of the Gu family will be nothing.

But thinking about these things now was a bit too far off, so Gu Qingfeng immediately cleared his mind of all distractions and continued his seclusion to comprehend the Dao.

……

Nether.

Divine Martial Dynasty.

Gu Shengxing looked at the murderous man in front of him, his expression turning somewhat gloomy.

"Has that sect been dealt with yet?"

"Leave no one behind!"

A cold glint appeared in Gu Shengan's eyes, and a terrifying killing intent emanated from his body.

"Hmph, my Gu family has been dormant for thousands of years. Does anyone really think that such a force is so naive as to try to overthrow my Gu family's rule by using the restrictions of the end of Dharma?"

"This time, I want them to understand that the Gu family is still the Gu family, and Shenwu is still the ruler of the entire lower realm."

Whether it's the Dharma-ending Age or a prosperous era of great strife, no other force can shake our position!

Gu Shengan said coldly.

This time, when a descendant of the Gu family perished at the hands of an ancient sect, he led his army to directly annihilate that ancient sect, even killing a Great Saint at his peak on the spot.

The Great Sage is indeed terrifying.

However, the Divine Martial Guards led by Gu Shengan also had a notorious and ruthless reputation.

Back when Shenwu ascended to the throne of the Lord of Chaos, Gu Shengan led the Shenwu Guards to sweep across the heavens, conquering and destroying countless worlds.

Unfortunately.

The end times are approaching too quickly.

Gu Shengan's cultivation reached the ninth level of sainthood.

But that's the case.

The strength of the Divine Martial Guards should not be underestimated.

Not to mention the Great Sage, even the Holy King has shed blood.

Hearing Gu Shengan's words, Gu Shengxing nodded slightly: "You did well. Sometimes it's time to make them understand who the real master of this world is!"

"Father entrusted the Divine Martial Arts to us, and our Imperial Grandfather left behind a wealth of resources. If the Divine Martial Arts and the Gu family's legacy are lost because of this, we will be sinners for all eternity!"

Gu Shengxing's expression was resolute. He had taken on the responsibility of Shenwu from Gu Yang, and he was determined to ensure that Shenwu would prosper forever.

Even if the world is destined to be divided after a long period of unity, Shenwu must never be destroyed in our hands.

For such a vast and powerful dynasty to perish after only two generations would be the greatest insult to itself.

In the one or two thousand years following Gu Qingfeng and Gu Yang's ascension, the power of the Divine Martial Empire remained at its peak, and no force dared to harbor any disloyal intentions.

However, when three or four thousand years had passed and the end of the Dharma era was nearly halfway over, some forces began to harbor inappropriate thoughts.

Under normal circumstances, Gu Shengxing would not bother to pay too much attention to it.

As long as it doesn't affect the foundation of his divine martial arts, he will turn a blind eye.

But this time is different.

The other party openly murdered a member of the Gu family.

If Shenwu does not take any action against such acts of murdering members of the royal family, it will only embolden other forces to escalate their actions.

and so.

Gu Shengan made his move.

In less than three days, the three million Divine Martial Guards trampled the ancient sect to pieces, and even the Great Saint was beheaded and his head was hung on the ruins of the sect.

This battle.

The whole world was shocked.

It was only then that they suddenly realized that Shenwu was still the same Shenwu.

Even though Gu Qingfeng and Gu Yang have already entered the Upper Realm, the foundation of Shenwu is still beyond their reach.

For a while.

The volatile situations that were brewing in various places instantly subsided.

and this.

This is also what Gu Shengxing wanted to see.

"Speaking of which, it's a bit of a pity that Yunfeng passed away. If it were during the Great Conquest, he might have had a chance to break through to the Quasi-Emperor level!"

Gu Shengan suddenly sighed, his expression showing a hint of weariness.

Gu Yunfeng was his eldest son, and now that the other party has passed away, it is a significant blow to Gu Shengan.

He had considered obtaining an elixir of immortality for Gu Yunfeng, but Gu Shengan did not do so.

He knew the value of the immortal elixir, and that the current divine power was not solely his, Gu Sheng'an's, power. It was impossible to use such resources to prolong Gu Yunfeng's life.

originally.

Gu Shengan wanted to build an ancient city of life for the other party.

Unfortunately, Gu Yunfeng was unwilling to live such a wretched life, so the other party's passing was inevitable.

Upon hearing this, Gu Shengxing remained silent for a moment, then sighed.

"It is difficult to achieve immortality without reaching the Heavenly Venerable Realm. This time, Yunfeng passed away peacefully, but next time it may be you or me who pass away peacefully."

Although my grandfather left behind an elixir of immortality, how long can such an elixir last?

As long as one doesn't strive for immortality, the elixirs of immortality will eventually run out!

This statement came out.

Gu Shengan shared the same sentiment.

Subsequently.

He continued, "Over the past few thousand years, the power of our bloodlines has been continuously increasing. If it weren't for the limitations imposed by the end of the Dharma, we would probably have already broken through to the Great Saint Realm, or even stepped further into the Saint King Realm."

The only reason my father and the others could bring about such a change in their bloodline is because they sought immortality!

Although Gu Shengan was unaware of the affairs of the upper realm, the attainment of immortality by Gu Qingfeng and others would cause a transformation in the bloodline of their family's descendants.

Each time a new immortal emerges, their bloodline undergoes a transformation, making them one step stronger.

Such transformations.

It surpasses even the capital city.

Since Gu Qingfeng and the others ascended, there have been five bloodline transformations. Therefore, Gu Shengan can conclude that his grandfather, his father, and several other uncles have probably all entered the legendary Heavenly Venerable realm.

otherwise.

It is absolutely impossible for one's own bloodline to undergo such a transformation.

"When the next great era of contention arrives, we can reopen the gates to immortality. If we can step into the upper realm, perhaps we too will have the possibility of achieving immortality!"

Gu Shengxing put his hands behind his back, his expression returning to calm.

After several bloodline transformations, he was confident that he would reach the Great Emperor realm in the next great era of contention.

Moreover, thanks to consuming an elixir of immortality, Gu Shengxing's lifespan would easily extend to that point. (End of Chapter)
