My son is about to break through.

Inside the pavilion.

Xu Yulan gradually calmed down, and she looked at Gu Qingfeng with tender eyes. After more than ten thousand years apart, she naturally missed him very much.

"Why has my husband returned to the Desolate Ancient Realm this time?"

"I have returned this time to bring you all to the Upper Realm!"

Gu Qingfeng didn't hide anything and spoke directly.

Subsequently.

Before Xu Yulan could ask too many questions, he told her everything that had happened in the Upper Realm.

After a long time.

Xu Yulan's face was full of heartache.

"My husband has had a hard time all these years!"

"I have attained immortality, and Gu Yang and his brothers have also successively entered this realm."

Once you reach the Upper Realm, you can begin your journey to break through to the Great Emperor Realm. At that time, I will personally find you the opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm!

Gu Qingfeng said in a deep voice.

In the past, he was not confident that Xu Yulan could break through, but now it was completely different.

As long as the opponent can reach the Great Emperor Realm, Gu Qingfeng can pile them up to the Heavenly Venerable Realm no matter what.

Although the price to pay for doing so is not small, it is all worth it for Gu Qingfeng.

"I'll leave everything to my husband's arrangements!"

Xu Yulan habitually obeyed Gu Qingfeng's words, so naturally she didn't object.

The next day.

Gu Qingfeng arrived alone in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, where he saw an ancient city of life nestled deep within the mountain range.

Looking at the ancient city of life before him, Gu Qingfeng moved his divine sense and saw the ancient city crumble and dissipate inch by inch, revealing a dark ancient coffin.

next interest.

The ancient coffin was broken.

A figure revived from the ancient coffin.

The other person's expression was first blank, then angry, but when they saw Gu Qingfeng's face clearly, their anger turned into excitement.

"Home...owner!!!"

Gu Peng looked delighted, though disbelief still lingered in his eyes.

He never imagined he would have the chance to see Gu Qingfeng again.

The latter looked at the person in front of him and saw that after more than 10,000 years, Gu Peng's aura was decaying and his temples were gray.

"you're old!"

Gu Qingfeng felt a pang of emotion.

Compared to back then, Gu Peng has undoubtedly aged considerably.

Despite being at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm, he could not escape the passage of time.

In this regard.

Gu Peng laughed heartily, "This subordinate is dull-witted. If it weren't for the opportunity bestowed by the patriarch, I would never have had the chance to reach the peak of the Quasi-Emperor in this lifetime."

Later, seeing that his subordinate was old, the Lord Xing spared no expense, using the resources of the Divine Dynasty to rebuild this ancient city of life. Otherwise, he feared he would never have been able to see the Lord again!

In Gu Peng's view, he was destined to die, and being able to see Gu Qingfeng now was a fulfillment of his long-cherished wish.

Next.

Even if it means direct death.

Gu Peng has no regrets.

Gu Qingfeng remained silent for a long while before slowly saying, "Come with me to the Immortal Realm!"

"If the master commands, this subordinate will obey!"

Gu Peng agreed without any hesitation.

See this.

Gu Qingfeng didn't say anything more.

With a flick of his finger, blood imbued with terrifying Daoist energy entered the other's body.

That moment.

Gu Peng felt as if his decaying life had been extended for a long time.

"I bestow upon you a drop of Celestial Venerable's essence blood. This blood will allow you to live for another million years. Furthermore, this Celestial Venerable's blood will slowly change your own aptitude, and one day you will have the hope of attaining immortality!"

Gu Qingfeng said.

For any cultivator, even a Celestial Venerable who has attained immortality, every drop of their essence blood is extremely precious.

Even a single drop of essence blood lost requires a long time to slowly recover.

If it were an ordinary person, Gu Qingfeng would naturally not have bestowed such a thing upon them.

But Gu Peng is different.

As the person who was originally by his side, Gu Qingfeng naturally valued him highly.

Over the years, although Gu Peng has not played any outstanding role, Gu Qingfeng has seen his silent hard work for the Gu family.

and so.

Within our capabilities.

Gu Qingfeng didn't mind giving the other party an opportunity.

Hear the words.

Gu Peng immediately knelt down and kowtowed heavily to Gu Qingfeng.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Get up, there's no need for us to say these polite things."

Gu Qingfeng waved his hand and led Gu Peng back to the Gu family home.

……

"Qingran passed away eight thousand years ago. The Gu family originally wanted to build an ancient city of life for her, but she refused."

Standing before a grave, Gu Qingfeng looked at the name on the tombstone. Xu Yulan stood beside him and slowly spoke.

"Actually, she's always been waiting for you..."

"There is no possibility between us. If it weren't for the Qin family, I'm afraid she wouldn't have become my disciple."

In truth, it was I who held her back in this matter!

Gu Qingfeng shook his head, his expression slightly complicated.

He naturally understood Qin Qingran's thoughts, but some things cannot be forced.

Since taking the other party as his personal disciple, Gu Qingfeng has often given him guidance in his cultivation.

But a pity.

Qin Qingran had a knot in her heart.

In Gu Qingfeng's view, this might be the reason why the other party is unable to truly break through to the Great Emperor realm.

Otherwise, with Qin Qingran's talent and the resources provided by the Gu family, her chances of breaking through to the Great Emperor realm would be quite high.

but--

It's too late to say anything now.

Death is like a lamp going out!
Even with Gu Qingfeng's current abilities, there is no way he can reverse the life-or-death situation.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng made another trip to the Taixu Holy Land.

More than 10,000 years have passed, and the Taixu Holy Land is now a top power in the Eastern Region, with the foundation of an emperor.

Although Gu Xuan has ascended to the upper realm, the legacy he left behind still allows the Taixu Holy Land to endure.

More than 10,000 years later, the Great Emperor's foundation was at its peak, and the Taixu Holy Land naturally had a strong foundation.

Unfortunately.

Fu Shenjun has already perished.

The other party did not die from exhaustion of lifespan, but perished in the heavenly tribulation while undergoing the Quasi-Emperor Tribulation.

for this result.

Gu Qingfeng was somewhat melancholy, but he quickly came to terms with it.

"Perhaps... this is the true meaning of immortality!"

Witness the transformation of land into sea!

Witness the changing times!

Walking alone through the long river of time, witnessing things disappear one by one, until finally, only one person remains.

Every immortal being is alone.

This is why those ancient celestial beings were all detached from emotions and had nothing else to do besides cultivation.

After all.

That's it.

As familiar people leave one by one, the pain and loneliness are enough to shut one's heart off, making it difficult for external things to affect one.

Fu Shenjun is dead!
Huangji Sheng also passed away peacefully!

In just one day, Gu Qingfeng traveled throughout the five major regions of the Desolate Ancient Realm and returned to his home without alerting anyone.

now.

The entire Gu family gathered together.

The news of the ancestor's return had already spread far and wide.

Everyone in the Gu family yearns for Gu Qingfeng, the patriarch of the Gu family.

Almost all of the younger generations of the Gu family are very familiar with the deeds of this ancestor.

and so.

They naturally came to pay their respects.

"...Greetings, Ancestor!"

In the Gu family's martial arts arena, many of the younger generation were present, their faces full of respect.

Gu Qingfeng appeared in the void, with the image of the Great Dao reflecting the heavens and earth behind him, and auspicious clouds transforming into a lotus platform beneath his feet.

Subsequently.

Then I saw him sit down cross-legged.

"Today marks the thirtieth day of my sermon. How much you can comprehend depends entirely on your own destiny!"

Gu Qingfeng looked at the many younger members of the Gu family below with a calm expression.

Although they were all of the Gu family bloodline, to be honest, most of them were unfamiliar faces to Gu Qingfeng.

If it weren't for that slight throbbing in my blood, I would be no different from a stranger.

Gu Qingfeng's sermon was naturally out of consideration for the Gu family bloodline, and also to indirectly enhance the Gu family's prestige.

Hear this.

Everyone was overjoyed.

The Lord of Heaven is preaching!

This is an opportunity unlike any other in history.

and so.

They were all focused and held their breath, not daring to relax even slightly.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng then began to preach.

As his voice spread, a vast expanse of purple energy appeared in the sky, and a majestic heavenly might permeated the heavens and earth. The cultivators of the five immortal realms seemed to sense something and involuntarily looked in the direction of the Gu family.

Only faint sounds could be heard.

The sound grew louder and louder, penetrating deep into the soul.

Many cultivators immediately understood that a powerful figure was giving a sermon. Considering the return of the Gu family patriarch from the Immortal Realm, everything became clear at this moment.

"The Preaching of Immortality!"

"Such an opportunity must not be missed!"

Many people were excited. They were naturally not qualified to go to the Gu family to listen to the Dao, but even so, being able to hear a bit of the Dao's heavenly sound was a great opportunity.

……

Gu Qingfeng preached.

It is not about the profound Dao of the Celestial Venerable Realm.

Instead, it involves a gradual and in-depth explanation from the very beginning of cultivation.

Having broken through to the Celestial Venerable Realm and truly mastered the power of the Great Dao, Gu Qingfeng could now easily see through the essence of his past cultivation path when he looked back.

and so.

Although Gu Qingfeng was talking about ordinary cultivation methods, they were like a great tonic to others, making them unconsciously immerse themselves in them.

The Way of Body Refinement!

The Way of the Grandmaster!

The Way of the Grandmaster!
A divine transformation!

Dao Palace!

……

Holy King!

Quasi-Emperor!

Great Emperor!

……

Gu Qingfeng held nothing back, explaining the mysteries of body refinement from the very beginning to the pinnacle of becoming a Great Emperor.

Every word is like a profound truth, capable of invoking the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to descend and manifest countless mysteries.

at the same time.

Gu Qingfeng's divine sense expanded infinitely, directly communicating with the immortal sect and directing all the dissipated immortal energy back towards the Gu family.

That moment.

A celestial aura cascades down.

This level of power transcends spiritual energy and is naturally of great benefit to cultivators.

For a while.

All members of the Gu family broke through to new heights.

Gu Qingfeng looked at his own information panel, which was filled with refreshed text, as well as his own attribute panel, where the improvement points had also increased significantly.

originally.

After Gu Qingfeng broke through to the Fourth Tribulation Heavenly Venerable, he had very few improvement points left, less than 20 million.

But now.

The points increased rapidly, easily breaking through the 20 million mark, and then continued to rise, quickly approaching 30 million.

This influx of celestial energy lasted for a full six months.

Half a year.

The Gu family's overall strength has improved significantly.

Although no new emperor has appeared so far.

However, the number of Quasi-Emperors has already exceeded one hundred.

Many quasi-emperors have already secretly grasped the path to becoming emperors, and after a period of consolidation, breaking through to the emperor realm will not be a problem.

As a way of giving back.

Gu Qingfeng's potential for improvement also stopped at 80 million.

Precisely.

It is 89 million.

Six months have passed.

The Gu family provided Gu Qingfeng with approximately 70 million upgrade points.

This is because six months is a long time, which prevents many people from truly breaking through to the next level.

otherwise.

It would be an easy task for Gu Qingfeng to break 100 million points again.

nowadays.

The 89 million upgrade points are just the beginning.

As the Gu family gradually digests this, Gu Qingfeng's improvement points can still experience explosive growth.

According to his estimate, this growth should be able to be sustained for about three to five years. As for the subsequent slow improvement, this momentum should extend for a century without much problem.

Look at everyone.

Gu Qingfeng said, "Now that the Immortal Gate has been opened, the Immortal Qi of the Immortal Realm is flowing down, so the saying that the End of Dharma Era no longer exists in the lower realm."

As long as the immortal gates remain open, the end of the Dharma will not return.

this sentence.

This caused everyone's expression to change drastically.

The end times will not come again!

They knew perfectly well what this sentence meant.

The Dharma Ending Age!

all the time.

They were all like a sharp blade hanging over everyone's heads.

Even with exceptional talent, if one is born in the Dharma-ending Age, one is destined to perish in obscurity.

but now.

The Dharma will not return in the final days.

This means that all cultivators have the opportunity to advance further without worrying about the passing of the golden age and the return of the Dharma-ending Age, which would completely sever their path of cultivation.

If this news gets out, it is destined to shake the entire Chaos.

"The situation in the upper realm is currently chaotic. Although the Immortal Sect has been established, the great calamity may return at any time. In the future, any cultivator in the Gu family who can break through to the Great Emperor Realm can go to the Immortal Realm through the Immortal Sect to seek the opportunity for immortality."

"I have given you all the opportunities I can. As for how far you will go in the future, whether you can step into the Great Emperor realm and find the opportunity for immortality, that depends on your own destiny!"

After Gu Qingfeng finished speaking, his figure disappeared.

He has said what he needed to say; as for the rest, that is up to fate.

The rest.

With Gu Shengxing and others handling things, Gu Qingfeng didn't need to worry so much.

soon.

The news that the Dharma-ending Age would not return spread.

Just as the entire Desolate Ancient Realm was in turmoil, news also spread from the Divine Martial Dynasty, the only hegemonic force in the Desolate Ancient Realm at present.

That was the second-generation Divine Lord of Shenwu—Xingzhu, who announced his abdication, and his position as Divine Lord was passed to Gu Tiansheng, the sixth-generation descendant of the Gu family.

This news.

Although not as shocking as the news of the end of Dharma, it was still enough to shake the entire Ancient Realm once again.

Shenwu is now not only the overlord of the Desolate Ancient Realm, but also the overlord of the entire Chaos. Now that the position of the God Lord has changed, it has naturally caused a lot of turmoil.

but.

These disturbances quickly subsided.

The fundamental reason is that Gu Qingfeng has attained immortality, and Gu Shengxing and others are also still alive. Even if some people have different thoughts, they can only suppress them in their hearts and dare not express them.

This way.

The succession ceremony was thus able to proceed smoothly. (End of Chapter)
