Chapter 397: Chapter 277: Suppression by the Heavens and Earth_2
Xu Yulan was still at the peak of the Great Grandmaster realm and hadn’t managed to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm.
with the guidance of Gu Qingfeng and some resources, Xu Yulan didn’t take too long to break through to the first level of the Divine Transformation Realm.
Cultivation breakthrough.
On the surface, Xu Yulan hadn’t changed much.
After all, she was not too old to begin with, even younger than Gu Qingfeng. Whether it was the four thousand years of lifespan of a Great Grandmaster or the five thousand years of the Divine Transformation Realm, there was no difference to her.
“What realm has my husband reached now? I am quite curious.”
In the main room, Xu Yulan’s breath was gentle, and her face was filled with curiosity.
Gu Qingfeng responded with a light smile, “I suppose I can be considered a Saint.”
“My dear, I heard that during the End of Dharma Era, it’s difficult for cultivators to become saints. How did you manage it?”
Xu Yulan was shocked, her understanding of the Cultivation World was certainly not as naive as before.
Even though Xu Yulan seldom cared about external affairs, there were many disciples in the Gu Family Manor now. She had learned a lot from others.
“Just because others can’t become saints doesn’t mean I can’t, but the waters of the Ancient Desolate World are deep. Even being a saint isn’t really a big deal.”
Gu Qingfeng didn’t sound conceited; thoughts of the Demon Realm’s Emperor Corpse and his feelings when he broke through to sainthood crossed his mind.
Who knows how many powerful beings have been born and hidden in secret over the endless years in the Ancient Desolate World? So to Gu Qingfeng, being a saint indeed wasn’t much.
his words were enough to shock Xu Yulan.
Spring passed and autumn arrived.
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
Gu Qingfeng spent most of his time guiding the disciples of the Gu Family Manor, and the remaining time pondering the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Skill and the Nine Heavens Scripture.
Since his breakthrough into the Saint Realm, the previously obscure Heavenly Phoenix Divine Skill had become much easier to understand.
Many of the profound mysteries that were difficult to comprehend were now slightly discernible with some focus from Gu Qingfeng.
the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Skill, mastered by the Heavenly Phoenix Great Saint, had its own unique profundity comparable to that of the Divine Sky Heavenly Thunder.
ever since stepping into the Saint Chapter of the Nine Heavens Scripture, Gu Qingfeng’s cultivation progress had stalled at the first level of the Saint Realm, with not much advancement.
Gu Qingfeng was in no hurry.
After all, the cultivation in the Saint Realm was not comparable to other realms, so being slower was quite normal.
Besides these matters, Gu Qingfeng also kept an eye on the changes on his information panel.
both Gu Shengxing and Gu Sheng’an had gotten married.
The former married the daughter of Marquis Anren, while the latter married a heroine from a certain sect in the Martial World.
The weddings of the two took place on the same day. Nearly all of the Martial World’s forces came, and numerous forces from the Ancient Desolate World also came to offer their congratulations.
Under normal circumstances,
being merely princes of a small dynasty, Gu Shengxing and Gu Sheng’an’s weddings wouldn’t have caused such a stir.
But with Gu Qingfeng, known as the strongest in the End of Dharma Era, Enjoy reading on NovelHub - your free online novel platform.
the wedding was an unprecedented grand event. Gu Qingfeng and Xu Yulan, who seldom left the Gu Family Manor, were also present at the ceremony.
After witnessing his two grandsons getting married, Gu Qingfeng realized how swiftly time flew by; the two little ones who used to babble were now at the age to start their own families.
Had it been his previous life, with his current age, he would have been enjoying his twilight years.
But in the Cultivation World, being several decades old was certainly nothing.
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has learned that the Evil Spirits are growing increasingly rampant, thus decided to establish the Evil Suppression Bureau to quell the Evil Spirits across the land!”
“Under your offspring ‘Gu Yang’s’ rule, the weather has been favorable, crops have flourished, and the people are safe and content, deepening his prestige among the populace!”
“Considering his eldest daughter’s age, your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ intended to arrange a marriage for her, who unwillingly angered and left the Divine Martial Dynasty to make her own way!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Shengnan’ ventured out to gain experience and has broken through to the second layer of the Refining Organ Realm!”

“Your offspring ‘Gu Sheng’an’ broke through to the First Level of Refining Organ Realm!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xuan’ no longer suppressed his own cultivation, powerfully breaking through the shackles of the Divine Transformation Realm, advancing to the First Level of Dao Palace Realm!”
Gu Qingfeng was sixty-four.
Four years had passed since he broke through to the Saint Realm.
It had also been three years since Gu Shengxing and others’ grand wedding.
In the past three years,
the overall strength of the Gu Family’s bloodline had greatly improved, with Gu Xuan and Gu Xiu in particular breaking through the Divine Transformation Realm’s shackles in one breath and advancing to the Dao Palace Realm.
Over the years, although Gu Qingfeng had been cultivating within Gu Family Manor and had nearly not stepped out, he still had an excellent grasp on the happenings of the outside world.
When he learned that Gu Shengnan, discontent with Gu Yang’s arranged marriage, had secretly left home, Gu Qingfeng had already dispatched Hidden Guards to secretly follow and protect her to prevent any mishaps.
Otherwise, with Gu Shengnan’s cultivation at the Refining Organ Realm, had she truly sought to venture out, success would not have come so easily.
The most regrettable thing for Gu Qingfeng over the years was that there had been no progress in his cultivation of the Nine Heavens Scripture.
there seemed to be some suppression between Heaven and Earth, making it difficult for cultivators of the Saint level to advance.
Gu Qingfeng understood this suppression well – it was not his illusion, but a real existence.
In the End of Dharma Era, saints could not ascend, and many saints and even stronger beings chose to seal themselves in order to avoid the End of Dharma Calamity, which pointed to the fundamental reason here.
Heavenly suppression prevented advancement, leaving even the most gifted with no way forward.
If one did not seal themself, the only outcome would be the exhaustion of their lifespan.
If Gu Qingfeng were an ordinary saint, he too would need to find a way to seal himself and sleep to avoid the End of Dharma.
Gu Qingfeng was no ordinary saint, and to him, as long as he had enough upgrade points, the so-called celestial suppression could be completely ignored.
Gu Qingfeng had no need to seal himself.
