Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Emperor Extreme Great Saint.

The second strongest openly affiliated with the court.

The strongest.

Is Gu Qingfeng.

Below.

Is Emperor Extreme Great Saint who has stepped into the Great Saint's Nine Layers Heaven.

This ancient Great Saint has already touched the threshold of Saint King, needing only an opportunity to break through. In such an End of Dharma Era, Emperor Extreme Great Saint's strength is not counted among the top ten, yet it is definitely not to be underestimated.

Apart from these top-tier powerhouses, there are the backbone forces of various factions.

Externally rare peak Dao Palace Realm powerhouses are not uncommon for some ancient factions.

Therefore.

Despite the incredibly high requirements of the Nine Layers Heaven, the number of cultivators who can stand here is scarce, but this scarcity depends on comparison.

If compared to the entire Eastern Domain, or even the Ancient Desolate World, cultivators in the Nine Layers Heaven are indeed few.

But even so.

The Nine Layers Heaven has no less than a hundred thousand cultivators.

One hundred thousand Dao Palace Realm Ninth Level!

This is the foundation of the Eastern Domain.

"Effortlessly slaughtering demons of the same realm, the Gu Family bloodline is indeed powerful. When prosperity arrives, it is estimated that the Gu Family will produce another top-tier powerhouse!"

A Saint King from the ancient Zhou Family saw this scene, his eyes slightly moved, feeling somewhat surprised at Gu Xiu's profound foundation.

With the vision of a Saint King, one can naturally see Gu Xiu's extraordinariness.

Rumor has it.

This person has awakened the Undying Divine Body.

A Divine Body!

As long as he doesn't accidentally fall, breaking through to Saint King is destined.

Even stepping into the Quasi-Emperor Realm, and contending for the Great Emperor, is possible.

This.

Is the strength of the Divine Body.

In this era, the ancient Zhou Family also has a Divine Body emerging, whose performance is outstanding, not inferior to Gu Xiu.

But it must be clear.

This Divine Body is the foundation of the ancient Imperial Clan.

And within the Gu Family, from what this Saint King has learned, there is not just a single Divine Body.

Upon hearing this.

Another Saint King showed a complex expression.

"This era is destined to belong to the Gu Family. That Gu Family Ancestor is unfathomable. If he attains the Emperor Realm, once the Emperor Blood nurtures the family, Gu Family powerhouses will certainly emerge endlessly.

In the next ten thousand, even one hundred thousand years, no other force will likely rival the Gu Family!"

Upon these words.

All powerhouses remained silent.

The strength of the Gu Family.

Makes it difficult for them to breathe.

Just as the Saint King said, now the Gu Family's talents and prodigies are numerous, and with the emergence of a Great Emperor and nurture of Emperor Blood, it becomes even more terrifying.

Watching Gu Xiu's massacre, it naturally astounded these powerhouses.

At this moment.

The Nine Layers Heaven suddenly tore open, and a towering figure emerged from the chaotic starry sky, overwhelming power surged forth, a hand was already coming to suppress Gu Xiu.

"Demon Lord!"

The fierce pressure made Gu Xiu's shoulders sink, but he did not retreat at all, his eyes filled with fighting spirit, a vigorous force of blood and energy erupted from his body.

Boom—

Gu Xiu struck out with a fist, the tyrannical force collided with the hand, instantly sweeping away with a wave of destruction.

The strong force hit, causing Gu Xiu's fist to bleed and flesh to shatter, but within a breath, the injury completely healed.

"Hmm? Able to withstand my strike, interesting!"

The Demon Lord looked surprised, seemingly not expecting a Dao Palace Realm cultivator to withstand his palm, but soon, he attacked again.

In his view, Dao Palace Realm is still Dao Palace Realm. It is nothing compared to a Demon Lord that rivals a Saint.

On the other side.

Gu Xiu was also fervent with fighting spirit, shouting angrily: "Fight!"

As soon as he finished.

He was already rushing towards the Demon Lord.

Since entering the Ninth Level of Dao Palace Realm, his cultivation reaching Semi-Saint level, few of the same realm could pressure him.

Ordinary Semi-Saints, almost could be destroyed with a punch.

Only a Demon Lord rivaling a Saint could truly exert pressure on Gu Xiu.

Seeing Gu Xiu fighting the Demon Lord, other strong defenders were about to act, but upon seeing this, they all stopped.

"With Semi-Saint power on par with a Saint!"

"This child has the talent of an Emperor!"

The faces of powerhouses from noble families and holy lands were filled with shock, as if Gu Xiu's power had once again refreshed their understanding.

Emperor Extreme Great Saint's face showed approval, he was quite satisfied with Gu Xiu's performance.

Strictly speaking.

Gu Xiu is his disciple.

A disciple with Emperor talent made Emperor Extreme Great Saint very pleased.

Normally.

Killing a Demon Lord is nothing for Emperor Extreme Great Saint, but he did not act rashly.

Since Gu Xiu has the ability to fight a Demon Lord, naturally letting him solve it is best. Life-and-death combat can best unleash one's potential.

More importantly.

Emperor Extreme Great Saint must prevent attacks by other demon strong beings.

Indeed, the war between the two races is definitely not simple.

In chaos.

Countless strong demons attempt to tear through the Nine Layers Heaven defense line and directly invade the Eastern Domain.

A slight oversight.

May lead to the defense line shattering.

But even so, many demons pass through the Ninth Layer Heaven, heading to lower defense lines.

Of course.

Some of these demons break through the line with strength, others are let through by Emperor Extreme Great Saint and others on purpose.

After all, expecting the Ninth Layer Heaven to bear all pressure is impossible, fundamentally not doable.

They can only let some demons through indirectly to reduce the pressure on the Ninth Layer Heaven to truly resist the demons.
