Chapter 242: Chapter 213: Stabilizing the Nine States_2
“But there is one condition,” Ji Liuyun said sternly, “no one can involve the Ji Family in this, otherwise, I won’t need Gu Yang to take action— I will eliminate all of you myself!”
As he finished speaking, a murderous intent flashed in Ji Liuyun’s eyes, causing the other elders, who were filled with righteous indignation, to change their expressions and immediately fall silent.
Ji Liuyun’s expression eased slightly, followed by a shake of his head.
“Considering the mighty power of the Gu Family and the undying Martial Saint, even if the old ancestor of our Ji Family in the Divinity Realm were to be reborn, it would still be difficult to compete with him. Enduring this temporarily ensures calm waters. How many years can a mere martial artist live, after all?”
“Since our Ji Family has already established an agreement with Gu Yang, as long as the Ji Family acts according to the rules, these concerns need not worry us.”
“After all, if the Ji Family isn’t at fault, even if Gu Yang wanted to take action, he would still need a substantial reason to do so!”
Ji Liuyun was aware that Gu Yang wanted to establish new rules, so if the other party wanted to set rules, they had to abide by them.
The Ji Family is an Immortal Family, with numerous powerful connections behind them.
If Gu Yang were to annihilate the Ji Family for no reason, it would surely cause many upheavals, which wouldn’t be favorable for his subsequent plans.
Ji Liuyun wasn’t worried that Gu Yang would break his word.
His only concern was members of the Ji Family disobeying his orders and acting covertly, which could then give Gu Yang an excuse to threaten the Ji Family itself.
This was also the reason
why Ji Liuyun openly issued his warning.
If personal actions were to implicate the Ji Family, then he could only abandon the pawns to save the king.
was indeed unstoppable.
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has annexed the territories of six states, considerably increasing his power!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has annexed the territories of seven states, considerably increasing his power!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has ordered the forging of the Nine States Tripod!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has received guidance from a Great Grandmaster, and his cultivation has improved!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has achieved Perfection in the Marrow Cleansing Realm!”
“Reward upgrade points *150!”
“Reward Marrow Cleansing Pills *200!”
“Reward Refining Organ Pills *100!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang,’ overwhelming the world, has an army exceeding fifty million!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ unexpectedly received a legacy from a mysterious mighty figure, significantly enhancing his strength!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xuan’ has gained some understanding of the Heavenly Blade True Intent, slightly improving his strength!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Shengnan’ has gained some understanding of the Green Lotus Sword Scripture, slightly improving her strength!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Shengxing’ has achieved a breakthrough to the Mid-level of the Blood Refining Realm!”
“Reward upgrade points *20!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Sheng’an’ has achieved a breakthrough to the Mid-level of the Blood Refining Realm!”
“Reward upgrade points *20!”
The Guangyang Army, commanded by Gu Yang, now nearly dominated the territory of the Nine States, with all situations looking favorable.
Gu Qingfeng also used the upgrade points he had acquired to advance his Golden Body directly to the sixth layer.
Achieving two realm breakthroughs in one breath.
Finally, he broke through from the Late Stage Extreme Dao Master to the Perfection of the Extreme Dao Master Realm.
Even though Gu Qingfeng was previously only half a step away from Extreme Dao Master Perfection, when he truly broke through and stepped into the realm of Extreme Dao Master Perfection, his power still underwent a shocking transformation.
Vital energy as mercury,
strong enough to stabilize the galaxies!
The vitality within Gu Qingfeng’s physical body had transformed to an astonishing degree, and every drop of his blood contained fearsomely powerful energy.
Without any exaggeration,
with the vital energy Gu Qingfeng had now refined, he even suspected that a single drop of his blood could suppress a Great Grandmaster.
“The realm of Extreme Dao Master is finally at Perfection!”
Feeling the changes within himself, a slight smile appeared on his face.
he would break the limits of an Extreme Dao Master and step into even higher realms.
what mysteries lay beyond an Extreme Dao Master, Gu Qingfeng was yet to know.
After all, the journey of an Extreme Dao Master was his own path, different from other martial artists’.
he had no reference point from which to start.
Only by groping his way forward could he gradually unravel these mysteries.
With his cultivation breakthrough,
Gu Qingfeng also did something rare—he didn’t continue to seclude himself in the Grinding Blade Hall but came out to spend some tender time with Xu Yulan, also guiding her in her cultivation.
Xu Yulan had also been cultivating the Longevity Skills and was nearly at Perfection in the Marrow Cleansing Chapter.
But to say she could break the shackles of the Grandmaster Realm and step into the realm of Great Grandmaster was still far off.
Xu Yulan’s talents were average.
Her breakthrough to Grandmaster Realm was entirely due to elixirs.
Without the elixirs, with Xu Yulan’s natural talent, it was questionable if she could even break through to the Bone Refining Realm now.
Gu Qingfeng also tested the cultivation progress of Gu Shengnan and others, and he was quite satisfied with their improvement.
within the great hall,
“Is there something?”
Gu Qingfeng raised an eyebrow.
Gu Xuan had always been somewhat fearful of him, and it wasn’t normal for him to come alone; in keeping with his usual character, he would at least bring Gu Xiu along.
Gu Xuan smiled sheepishly, “Indeed, nothing escapes Father’s eyes. I’ve come indeed because there is a matter I wish to consult with Father about.”
Gu Xuan hesitated for a moment, then cupping his fists, said, “Recently, my cultivation has stalled, so I wish to go out for some experience to see if I can find an opportunity for a breakthrough.”
Gu Qingfeng was momentarily taken aback, looking at him with a serious expression, then nodded.
“It’s good that you have this thought. Staying inside Gu Family Manor all the time ultimately limits one’s vision. However, going out for experience implies danger—are you mentally prepared?”
