My son is about to break through.

Gu Zhize made a breakthrough.

It was a minor incident, not too big, not too small.

After more than 200,000 years of development, the foundation of the Gu family has become extremely solid.

Such is the Immortal Realm!

The lower realm is already like this!

Many so-called ancient imperial clans in the lower realm have been passed down for hundreds of millions of years. Although their history is much longer than that of the Gu family, in terms of heritage, they are far inferior to the Gu family.

To put it bluntly.

Even if the Gu family in the lower realm loses contact with the Immortal Realm later, they can still pass on their legacy for eternity, thanks to the foundation of the lower realm, and no one can shake their position.

at this point.

This is not an empty statement.

Don't say anything else.

The mere fact that they possess the bloodline of the Celestial Venerable is enough to elevate the Gu family above all other imperial clans.

and.

Such bloodline power.

If nothing unexpected happens.

Every so often, the Gu family can produce a powerful expert at the Great Emperor realm.

For other cultivators, the Great Emperor Realm is difficult to break through. Even for those with immortal or divine bodies, truly reaching this level is not easy.

However, for those with the bloodline of the Celestial Venerable, these issues are not actually a big problem.

strictly speaking.

A sufficiently rich Heavenly Venerable bloodline is enough to crush most immortal or divine bodies.

at this point.

Needless to say.

A family that has lived for generations can endure as long as it does not suffer a devastating calamity.

As far as Gu Qingfeng knew.

In the former Xuan Tian Immortal Realm, there existed those immortal families that stood for eternity.

Unfortunately.

The great calamity of the evil god has arrived.

These families that had been known for their immortality all vanished without a trace.

Get to the end.

Only the thirteen holy sites remain.

but.

The thirteen holy lands are no longer what they used to be.

With the fall of Qingmu Tianzun and Jiutian Tianzun, the two holy lands are now without immortal guardians.

Shake his head.

Gu Qingfeng ignored these thoughts and continued his secluded cultivation.

……

Spring and autumn come and go!

Time flies!

While Gu Qingfeng was in seclusion, everything in the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty was stable and improving.

With 120 Immortal Realms as its foundation, even with the troubles of evil gods, it is not difficult to steadily improve one's strength.

just.

As the power of the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty grew stronger.

The Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom seemed to have also noticed something amiss.

The friction between the two forces is becoming increasingly intense.

but.

These things have nothing to do with Gu Qingfeng.

Him now.

He was completely focused on improving his skills.

The 50,000th year.

The Frost Path has broken through to the second mid-stage!

The 100,000th year.

Gu Qingfeng briefly ended his seclusion and poured all the improvement points he had accumulated over 100,000 years into the Yellow Springs Path, successfully elevating this path to the late stage of the Fifth Tribulation.

then.

Gu Qingfeng continued his seclusion.

The 170,000th year.

The Frost Path has broken through to the second stage!
The 200,000th year.

Gu Qingfeng briefly emerged from seclusion again, elevating the Yellow Springs Path to the fifth level of perfection.

This is the end.

His cultivation level had reached the peak of the Fifth Tribulation Heavenly Venerable realm.

One step further.

That is, being able to step into the Six Tribulations Heavenly Venerable Realm.

But a pity.

Breaking through to the Fifth Tribulation Celestial Venerable realm requires 100 billion upgrade points, but to reach the Sixth Tribulation Celestial Venerable realm, a full 1 trillion upgrade points are needed.

Even at the current rate at which Gu Qingfeng gains improvement points, it would take at least a million years of accumulation to break through the Five Tribulations Shackles.

for this result.

However, this was exactly what Gu Qingfeng had expected.

After all, once he had learned how many upgrade points were needed to break through to the fifth tribulation heavenly realm, he vaguely understood how many were needed to break through to the sixth tribulation.

The tenfold increase is naturally not surprising.

in contrast.

Gu Qingfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it's ten times.

If there are more, then it will take him even longer to break through to the sixth tribulation.

The 300,000th year.

The Frost Path has broken through to the second level of perfection!

The 330,000th year.

The Dao of Annihilation has broken through to the middle stage of the third level!

The 450,000th year.

The Frost Path has broken through to the middle stage of the third level!

……

The 1.2 millionth year!
This day.

Gu Qingfeng ended his longest seclusion in history.

He calmed himself down and looked at his own attribute panel.

……

Name: Gu Qingfeng
Age: Immortality

Realm: Fifth Tribulation Celestial Venerable

The Great Dao: The Great Dao of Annihilation (Fourth Level of Perfection), The Great Dao of the Underworld (Fifth Level of Perfection), The Great Dao of Frost (Fourth Level of Perfection), The Great Dao of Time (First Level of Perfection)
Improvement Points: 1096255377123
……

One trillion 1.09 trillion points!

Both the Dao of Nirvana and the Dao of Frost have reached the fourth level of perfection.

but.

That's not the main point.

What really matters is...

During these more than one million years, Gu Qingfeng indirectly comprehended the Great Dao of Time.

In other words.

He now possesses the power of four great paths.

The only pity is.

Advancing through the Great Dao of Time is arduous.

Even with Gu Qingfeng's current cultivation level, he still found the first level of the Great Dao of Time extremely difficult to comprehend.

Even so, Gu Qingfeng was extremely satisfied.

Three thousand great paths.

The Great Dao of Time is one of the most difficult to comprehend.

It is a great fortune that I have been able to comprehend the great principle of time.

not to mention.

Now that he possesses four major paths, Gu Qingfeng feels that his strength has improved considerably.

"After 1.2 million years of seclusion, it's time to break through to the Sixth Tribulation Celestial Venerable Realm!"

Gu Qingfeng muttered to himself.

but.

Prior to this.

He glanced at the information panel.

After more than a million years of seclusion, he naturally wanted to see how the Gu family's descendants were doing now.

……

"Your descendant 'Gu Yang' has vigorously developed the Divine Martial Immortal Dynasty, and the overall strength of the Immortal Dynasty has steadily improved, with a slight increase in its fortune!"

"Your offspring, Gu Yang, has made some progress in cultivating the Heavenly Vein True Scripture and has successfully broken through to the fifth level!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xuan' was attacked by an evil god, but he suppressed it with absolute power!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xuan's' Northern Star Immortal Realm was discovered by the Evil God Clan, and the war between the two sides was fierce, but fortunately, other human immortal realms provided support, allowing them to barely catch their breath!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xuan, risked severe injury to slay the Evil God Celestial Venerable!"

"Your son, Gu Xiu, is leading the Southern Wilderness Divine Dynasty to conquer other immortal realms!"

"Your offspring 'Gu Xiu' has been attacked by an evil god *1235545!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' has slain the evil god *2565871!"

"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' has slain the evil god *5685412!"

"Your offspring..."

"Your descendant 'Gu Xianlin' single-handedly slew numerous evil gods, comprehending the Dao amidst the carnage, and successfully grasped the Great Dao of Slaughter!" "Your descendant 'Gu Xianlin' has risen in status within the Sacred Land of Mountains and Seas due to his comprehension of two Great Daos, and has gained the favor of the Celestial Venerable of Mountains and Seas!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xianlin, has been placed on the evil god clan's kill list because he comprehended two Great Daos!"

"Your offspring, Gu Xianlin, has made some progress in cultivating the Heavenly Vein True Scripture and has successfully broken through to the fifth level!"

……

With over a million years of accumulation, the information panel is naturally filled with a vast amount of information.

However, Gu Qingfeng scanned the area with his divine sense and digested all of this information.

Over the years.

The Gu family has seen a change in its descendants.

Some of the older generation of powerful figures have passed away, while a new generation of young prodigies have emerged.

Most of the information panel content concerns the life and death of the younger generation of the Gu family.

no way.

As a family that has a long history of immortality.

The Gu family now has an unusually large number of members.

Even though cultivators have long lifespans, the population is large, and birth, aging, sickness, and death are common occurrences.

and so.

Gu Qingfeng only looked at the more important ones.

Unfortunately.

More than a million years.

Since Gu Zhize broke through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, no one else in the Gu family has been able to break through.

for this result.

Gu Qingfeng looked slightly helpless, but quickly came to terms with it.

Breaking through to the Celestial Venerable Realm is not easy.

To be honest, the fact that so many Celestial Venerables have appeared in front of the Gu family is entirely due to good luck.

In fact.

As far as Gu Qingfeng knew.

It's quite normal for many long-lived families to not produce a single Celestial Venerable even after tens or hundreds of billions of years.

This level.

Breaking through is by no means easy.

and so.

It's perfectly normal that the Gu family hasn't produced a single immortal in over a million years.

Just saying.

Immortality is not possible.

But emperors emerged one after another.

Gu Qingfeng did a rough calculation.

The Gu family produces a great emperor roughly every hundred years.

This time.

It is calculated from the lower realm.

In the Immortal Realm, on average, one Great Emperor could emerge every few decades, or even every ten years or so.

This demonstrates just how terrifying the Heavenly Venerable bloodline truly is.

but.

What Gu Qingfeng truly cared about was...

The situation of the first generation of the Gu family.

Gu Xianlin's comprehension of the Second Great Dao is certainly a cause for celebration.

Simultaneously.

Both the other party and Gu Yang have cultivated the Heavenly Vein True Scripture to the fifth level, which is quite good.

However, this also illustrates just how difficult it is to cultivate the Heavenly Vein True Scripture normally.

The first level of cultivation is the simplest, but the difficulty increases exponentially with each subsequent breakthrough.

Back then, Gu Yang only spent a short time cultivating the Heavenly Vein True Scripture to the third level.

result.

It has been more than a million years since then.

He had barely managed to cultivate the Heavenly Vein True Scripture to the fifth level.

How difficult is it?

It was already predictable.

obviously.

These are secret methods.

It's not meant for cultivators in the lower realms to practice on.

It's simply because one is not a Celestial Venerable who has attained immortality that it is impossible to cultivate the Celestial Vein True Scripture to perfection.

To know.

Regarding aptitude and comprehension.

Gu Xianlin is top-notch in every aspect.

Compared to Gu Yang, he is a level below.

Even someone as gifted and insightful as Gu Xianlin took over a million years to cultivate the Heavenly Vein True Scripture to the fifth level, just like Gu Yang.

If it were an emperor, he might never be able to cultivate the Heavenly Vein True Scripture to the fourth level in his entire life.

As for cultivating to the ninth level of perfection, that is an even more unattainable dream.

It was Gu Qingfeng who used the upgrade points to break through and improve, which allowed him to upgrade the Heavenly Vein True Scripture in a short period of time.

Regarding this secret technique.

As Gu Qingfeng's cultivation level increases, he also attaches greater importance to it.

"The situation in the Northern Star Immortal Realm and the Southern Wilderness Immortal Realm is also not peaceful, but Gu Xuan and Gu Xiu have not asked for help, which shows that they can still hold on."

This also suggests that the two immortal realms are not actually located in the heartland of the evil god race, but rather on the border between the two races!

Gu Qingfeng reviewed what he had seen in his mind and had a general understanding of the locations of the two immortal realms.

If it were in the heart of the evil god clan's territory, the two immortal realms would have been exposed, and it would have been impossible for them to have survived until now.

After all, Gu Qingfeng had a deep understanding of the power of the evil god clan.

Even a powerful dynasty like the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty is now trying its best to deal with the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom, not daring to confront it directly, and even less daring to truly reveal the location of the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty.

Otherwise, once the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom becomes aware of the situation and its army presses in, the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty will have no chance of resisting.

"but--"

"Those are all things of the past!"

"Once I break through to the Sixth Tribulation Celestial Venerable Realm, all the problems will no longer be problems!"

"However... the Sixth Divine Tribulation is powerful, and it is absolutely forbidden to undergo the tribulation in the Xuan Tian Immortal Domain. Otherwise, the power of such a divine tribulation may be unbearable for the entire Xuan Tian Immortal Domain!"

Gu Qingfeng's expression was solemn.

Now that he has reached his level, he can naturally feel the power of this level of divine tribulation.

The Xuan Tian Immortal Realm is indeed powerful, but it also has its limits.

and.

This is different from fighting against the Celestial Venerable.

If it were a battle between Celestial Venerables, even if a power of six tribulations or higher were to erupt, as long as it was restrained and directed towards the Chaos instead of being entirely absorbed by the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm, then the problem would not be too serious.

But the Divine Tribulation of Immortality is different.

Such divine calamity power is uncontrollable.

If the Immortal Tribulation is allowed to run rampant, the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm will inevitably fall apart.

This is the result.

This was certainly not what Gu Qingfeng wanted to see.

"and……"

"With the sheer force of the Sixth Divine Tribulation, it certainly won't escape the notice of the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom. At that time, a battle between the two sides is inevitable!"

Gu Qingfeng did not want to engage in a direct battle with the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom without absolute certainty.

and so.

Looking at the trillions of points of growth, Gu Qingfeng suppressed the urge to break through.

Now is not the time for a real breakthrough.

the best.

They can accumulate trillions, or even hundreds of trillions, of improvement points. When they want to break through, they can directly step into the peak of the sixth tribulation or enter the realm of the seventh tribulation Heavenly Venerable.

That way.

Even the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom poses little threat.

after all.

If he could reach the Seventh Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm and combine it with the Nine Heavenly Vein True Scripture, he would be confident that he could beat the Blood Shadow God Lord to a pulp, even if the latter was at the Eighth Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm.

Do not--

There is no need to break through to the Seven Tribulations Celestial Venerable Realm.

As long as he can break through to the Sixth Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm, and with the help of the Nine Heavenly Vein True Scripture and the power of many Great Daos, Gu Qingfeng is confident that he will not be afraid of most Eighth Tribulation Heavenly Venerables.

If he were to truly break through to the seventh tribulation, he might even be able to contend with a ninth tribulation celestial being.

at the moment.

Gu Qingfeng has already qualified to break through to the sixth tribulation.

and so.

Him now.

They no longer had much to fear from the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom.

After all, he could break through to the Six Tribulations Celestial Venerable Realm at any time if he wanted to.

With this confidence, Gu Qingfeng could naturally continue his seclusion to accumulate strength with peace of mind.

And in this process.

Even if the Blood Shadow Divine Kingdom really discovers the whereabouts of the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty, Gu Qingfeng has enough confidence to deal with it.

At worst, we'll just have to fight a war.

With his current strength.

As long as the Nine Tribulations Celestial Venerable doesn't appear, how many people can threaten him?

But Nine Tribulation Celestial Venerables are not something you can see everywhere. Even if Gu Qingfeng has never actually seen that Blood Shadow God Lord, he can be 100% certain that the other party could not possibly be a Nine Tribulation Celestial Venerable.

With such absolute certainty, Gu Qingfeng naturally had little to worry about. (End of Chapter)
