My son is about to break through.

After the Gu family descendant entered the Immortal Realm, Gu Qingfeng tried using the chat panel.

as predicted.

The chat panel, which could originally only accommodate Gu Yang and a few others, suddenly had more than a hundred more members.

Everyone was somewhat surprised by the appearance of the chat panel.

but.

The most unexpected thing was...

Naturally, it refers to Gu Yang and his group.

……

Gu Yang: "You've all ascended to the Immortal Realm?"

Gu Shengnan: "Are you the Emperor?"

Gu Shengan: "Father, I miss you very much. I heard that you are in the Ancient Xuanxian Realm now. I wonder how far away you are from the Xuantian Immortal Realm where Grandfather is?"

Gu Shengxing: "Greetings, Father Emperor!"

Gu Fengchen: "Greetings, Great-Grandfather!"

Gu Mingyu: "Greetings, Ancestor!"

Other members of the Gu family: "Greetings, Ancestor..."

Gu Yang: "...No need to be so polite. The Ancient Xuanxian Domain where I am now is far away from the Xuantian Immortal Domain, so I'm afraid there won't be a chance to meet for the time being."

However, your most urgent task is to break through to the Celestial Venerable Realm first. Without achieving immortality, you are nothing but ants. Remember this!

……

Inside the Divine Martial Immortal Dynasty, Gu Yang looked at the numerous Gu family juniors appearing on the chat panel and a smile appeared on his face.

He also learned about the current situation of the Gu family from other people.

More than 10,000 years.

The Gu family continues to grow and prosper.

more importantly.

The immortals descended to earth.

The Dharma will not exist in the end times.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Gu family business will endure.

This is something Gu Yang naturally wants to see.

As the first generation patriarchs of the Gu family, Gu Xuan, Gu Xiu, and others had no Daoist partners and no offspring. From the second generation onwards, all Gu family bloodlines came from their own lineage.

This way.

These bloodlines are naturally even more closely connected to Gu Yang.

Looking at the chat panel.

Gu Yang suppressed the excitement in his heart and then continued his cultivation.

Him now.

He is still at the level of a newly entered second-stage Heavenly Venerable.

and.

The foundation at this level is not yet solid.

no way.

Cultivating to the Celestial Venerable Realm is inherently difficult.

Ten thousand years is but a fleeting moment for the Celestial Venerable.

Consolidating one's cultivation level in such a short period of time is not an easy task.

The reason why Gu Yang was able to break through to the Second Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm so quickly was because of the fact that Shenwu had advanced to the Immortal Dynasty.

If it weren't for the divine martial arts dynasty's ascension to the Immortal Dynasty and the immense blessing of its fortune, Gu Yang wouldn't have had the chance to break through to the Second Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm even if it took ten or a hundred times longer, let alone several thousand years.

and so.

For Gu Yang.

The most important thing now is to stabilize the realm of the Second Tribulation Celestial Venerable.

As for attempting to break through to the Three Tribulations Celestial Venerable realm, the time required is not something I should be thinking about right now.

……

"Your offspring, Gu Yang, has gone into seclusion to cultivate and has gained some insights into the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, resulting in a slight improvement in his cultivation level!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xuan, has gone into seclusion to cultivate and has gained some insights into the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, resulting in a slight improvement in his cultivation!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xiu, has entered the ancient Longevity Ruins, comprehended the Dao of Longevity within, and mutually verified his own cultivation, resulting in a slight improvement in his cultivation!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xianlin' has slain 152369872 evil gods!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xianlin' has slain 369874121 evil gods!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Xianlin'..."

"Your descendant, Gu Xianlin, has slain countless evil gods, his hands stained with the blood of billions, and he seems to have gained some insight into the Second Great Dao!"

"Your offspring, Gu Shengnan, has traveled through the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm, fought against many powerful figures, deepened her understanding of the Great Emperor Realm, and greatly improved her cultivation!"

"Your offspring, Gu Shengnan, is renowned throughout the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm and has been granted the title of 'Azure Lotus Sword Master'!"

"Your offspring, Gu Shengxing, has made some progress in his seclusion and his cultivation has broken through to the Empress level of the Great Emperor!"

"Reward Boost Points * 10000!"

"Your offspring, Gu Sheng'an, has made some progress in his seclusion and his cultivation has broken through to the Empress level!"

"Reward Boost Points * 10000!"

……

"Empress Rank!"

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly as he watched Gu Shengxing and the other person make breakthroughs.

A hundred years have passed since the two entered the Immortal Realm.

Hundreds of years.

Break through to a new level.

It's not a big problem.

After all, both of them possess the bloodline of Heavenly Venerables and are already top-notch in talent. Now that they have entered the Immortal Realm and benefited from its environment, breaking through is a piece of cake for them.

It can be said.

All those of the Heavenly Venerable bloodline.

As long as the bloodline concentration is strong enough, breaking through to the Great Emperor realm is as easy as eating and drinking.

The difficulty increases dramatically when one breaks through from the peak of the Great Emperor realm to the Heavenly Venerable realm.

This is because the transformation from Great Emperor to Celestial Venerable is a necessary process for attaining immortality.

This level.

The bloodline of the Celestial Venerable alone is not enough to support his successful breakthrough.

but--

What truly concerned Gu Qingfeng was the change in Gu Xianlin.

Gu Yang and the others, who had also advanced to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, were almost constantly fighting on the battlefield, and many evil gods had fallen at the hands of their opponents.

That is why the information panel describes him as having slain countless evil gods.

"If one has the opportunity to comprehend the Second Great Dao amidst slaughter, then this Great Dao should, without a doubt, be primarily based on killing!"

"But I don't know exactly what kind of killing and violence this second Great Dao is—"

Gu Qingfeng pondered to himself.

There are many paths to the path of killing and conquest, and if we break them down further, they have many branches.

The Great Way is boundless.

That's it.

Even if two people who both comprehend the Great Dao through battles, it is still unknown whether they will ultimately comprehend the same Great Dao.

and so.

Even with Gu Qingfeng's limited perspective, he couldn't determine exactly what level of martial arts Gu Xianlin could comprehend.

But anyway.

As long as one can comprehend the Second Great Dao.

Then the opponent's strength can be significantly improved.

but--

There is still a long way to go between having some understanding and truly understanding.

Completing this journey may only require a moment of sudden enlightenment, or it may take millions of years to gradually accumulate and gain understanding.

and so.

Gu Qingfeng had no idea when Gu Xianlin would be able to comprehend the Second Great Dao.

now.

Gu Qingfeng withdrew his gaze from the information panel and focused his divine sense back on the treasure before him.

All that could be seen was the engraving of the Great Dao and the Daoist principles, and a dark ancient cauldron exuding a terrifying and heavy aura, as if it could suppress the eternal heavens and make the void stand still.

When Gu Qingfeng incorporated the last incantation into it, the power of the ancient black cauldron surged, and a vast heavenly tribulation was directly condensed.

Before the heavenly tribulation could descend.

Gu Qingfeng and the figure of the black ancient cauldron disappeared into the main hall.

At the same time. Somewhere in the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty.

A terrifying heavenly tribulation struck down, and the ancient black cauldron endured the baptism of lightning. Despite being tempered by such power, it showed no signs of breaking.

This is the tribulation I'm undergoing.

Everything went very smoothly.

When the last tribulation dissipated, Gu Qingfeng reached out and the ancient black cauldron fell into his hand.

"A half-step Creation-level Spiritual Treasure!"

"Pity--"

Gu Qingfeng looked at the dark ancient cauldron in his hand, a hint of regret appearing on his face, but it vanished in an instant.

He knows it very well!

The treasures of creation are difficult to refine.

A half-step creation-level spiritual treasure is the limit that I can currently refine.

Unless one can find enough extraordinary divine mineral materials, there is no possibility of refining a true magical treasure.

But despite the vastness of the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm, finding the ultimate treasure capable of refining magical artifacts is not an easy task.

At least.

so far.

Gu Qingfeng has not yet found the relevant materials.

but--

With a thought, Gu Qingfeng summoned several more treasures.

Including the newly crafted black ancient cauldron, there are a total of nine supreme treasures.

"Nine half-step creation treasures should be enough. Although the Longevity Tribulation is terrifying, it is only a first-level tribulation."

If one possesses a truly miraculous treasure, then absolute safety can be guaranteed.

However, if one possesses enough half-step Creation-level spiritual treasures, one should be able to safely pass through the first level of divine tribulation!

Gu Qingfeng pondered to himself.

Nine half-step Creation Treasures.

It is the result of his century-long efforts.

Now that it's difficult to refine true magical treasures, Gu Qingfeng naturally wants to pursue quantity.

Ten or eight half-step creation-level spiritual treasures are not enough to safely pass through a divine tribulation, so what about a hundred or eighty?
If there were truly so many divine treasures, even a single divine tribulation would likely be insufficient to destroy them all.

Think about this.

Gu Qingfeng immediately had an idea.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng returned to the palace carrying the ancient black cauldron.

He found Xu Yulan, directly condensed a drop of Celestial Venerable's essence blood, and merged it into her body to defy fate and change her destiny.

Xu Yulan's original aptitude was only average, but after obtaining the Heavenly Venerable's essence blood, her aptitude jumped to the top.

Even Gu Shengan and other direct descendants of the Gu family who possess the bloodline of the Celestial Venerable are not as talented as Xu Yulan in terms of aptitude.

The reason is simple.

Even if the Heavenly Venerable's bloodline is strong.

How could it possibly compare to the essence and blood of the Heavenly Venerable?

The power of such essence and blood contains a creation that can be described as defying the heavens.

"You should carefully refine this Heavenly Venerable's essence blood before attempting to break through to the Great Emperor Realm. This is a protective treasure I crafted for you, which I believe will be sufficient to allow you to safely pass through the Great Emperor Tribulation!"

Gu Qingfeng took out the newly crafted black ancient cauldron and handed it to Xu Yulan.

With the latter's perspective, one can naturally see the extraordinary nature of the black ancient cauldron.

"I'm sorry to trouble you with my affairs, my husband!"

Her face showed emotion.

First, there was the Heavenly Venerable's essence blood, and now there is the protective treasure. Xu Yulan understands that Gu Qingfeng has already paid a considerable price for her.

"We are husband and wife, so there's no need for such formalities. If you can attain immortality and stay by my side, that will be enough!"

Gu Qingfeng smiled faintly, his eyes full of tenderness.

Subsequently.

He instructed Xu Yulan to go into seclusion, first refining the ancient black cauldron, then refining the Heavenly Venerable's essence blood, and finally breaking through to the Great Emperor realm.

After being crowned Empress, Xu Yulan would naturally have the fortune of the Celestial Dynasty to break through to the Great Emperor realm.

It was only because Gu Qingfeng suppressed him that his cultivation level remained at the Quasi-Emperor level.

now.

We are prepared in all aspects.

Therefore, Xu Yulan naturally had no need to suppress her cultivation level.

With Gu Qingfeng's help in refining the Heavenly Venerable's essence blood, Xu Yulan only took less than ten years to completely integrate the Heavenly Venerable's essence blood into herself and use it for her own purposes.

This day.

The imperial calamity was immense.

The terrifying tribulation clouds blotted out the sky, causing many cultivators to turn pale at the mere mention of them.

"The Great Emperor's Heavenly Tribulation!"

"This Emperor's Tribulation is no ordinary matter!"

"Who is undergoing tribulation that could attract such a terrifying imperial tribulation—"

These cultivators gazed at the terrifying Emperor Tribulation that blotted out the sky; the aura emanating from it was significantly stronger than that of an ordinary Emperor Tribulation.

Only Gu Qingfeng remained calm when he saw this imperial tribulation.

"really!"

"It is indeed not so simple for the emperor and empress of a celestial dynasty to undergo tribulation. Yulan also obtained the essence blood of the Heavenly Venerable, so the tribulation she faces is naturally correspondingly more severe."

However, the greater the power of the Emperor's Tribulation, the more benefits it brings after the breakthrough.

With a near-Creation-level spiritual treasure protecting me, I believe I should have no problem surviving this Emperor Tribulation!

Even if the Emperor's Tribulation is powerful, it is still just the Emperor's Tribulation.

This level of heavenly tribulation could not possibly reach the level of the Longevity God Tribulation.

and this.

This was also within Gu Qingfeng's expectations.

The Celestial Realm is different from the Lower Realm.

In the Immortal Realm.

The stronger one's cultivation foundation, the more powerful the heavenly tribulation one will face.

Of course.

The more one can overcome such a heavenly tribulation, the greater the benefits will be.

Such enhanced heavenly tribulations generally only occur below the Heavenly Venerable realm.

However, once you reach the Heavenly Venerable Realm, the Heavenly Tribulation that everyone undergoes is roughly the same.

It simply means that a Celestial Venerable with abundant resources has a slightly higher chance of successfully passing the Tribulation of Immortality; otherwise, there is no difference.

now.

The Emperor's Calamity has arrived.

Gu Qingfeng wasn't too worried about this.

Having a half-step Creation Treasure in hand is enough to guarantee the other party's safe and successful tribulation.

As soon as Gu Qingfeng finished thinking, the terrifying heavenly tribulation crashed down. When they saw the figure undergoing the tribulation, the many cultivators of the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty all showed expressions of understanding.

"So it was this person undergoing tribulation, no wonder!"

The Celestial Dynasty's Emperor and Empress!

Many cultivators are familiar with this person.

However, it is somewhat unexpected that this empress, who was conferred the title of empress, has remained at the quasi-emperor level for so many years.

now.

Xu Yulan attracted the Heavenly Tribulation of the Great Emperor, but everyone thought it was perfectly normal.

It would be rather ridiculous if the emperor and empress of a celestial dynasty couldn't even break through to the Great Emperor level.

The fact that Xu Yulan is currently facing such a powerful imperial tribulation indicates that the opponent's foundation and resources are extremely strong.

Don't say anything else.

The mere aura of this heavenly tribulation was enough to make many emperors feel a strong sense of threat.

This can be seen.

Just how terrifying is the Heavenly Tribulation of this level of Emperor?

As everyone pondered this, a massive heavenly tribulation crashed down, with thunderous roars raging across the heavens and earth, and an aura of destruction covering billions of miles of void, as if it were about to utterly destroy the tribulation seekers below.

Xu Yulan remained expressionless and immediately summoned the ancient black cauldron. Countless beams of immortal light descended, protecting her within its embrace.

"boom!!!"

The terrifying lightning tribulation slammed into the immortal light. That strike, which was enough to make an emperor bleed, only caused the immortal light to tremble slightly, without showing any signs of breaking.

See this scene.

All the cultivators fell silent. (End of Chapter)
