Chapter 403: 140 Years Old_2
Gu Qingfeng believes that it won't take long for the Divine Martial Dynasty to be promoted to a Divine Dynasty.
Meanwhile.
The war of the Nine Layers Heaven.
Gu Qingfeng also watches intently.
However.
He has no intention of intervening.
It's because the Demon Clan is not an easy opponent; now, powerhouses of the Emperor Realm level have a tacit understanding of not making a move, all waiting for an opportunity.
The opportunity for the Demon Clan, Gu Qingfeng can understand without thinking, is to wait for the Demon Ancestor to revive and regain its peak strength of the past.
Similarly.
Gu Qingfeng is also waiting for his opportunity.
For him, the longer this situation drags on, the better.
After all, the longer the time, the more Upgrade Points Gu Qingfeng can accumulate. By the time he breaks through to the Quasi Emperor Peak, or even steps into the Emperor Realm, he will not fear facing the Demon Ancestor at its peak.
On the contrary.
If the Demon Ancestor launches an all-out invasion at this time, then Gu Qingfeng would have to be cautious.
Therefore, if the Demon Clan insists on delaying, Gu Qingfeng has no objections.
"However—"
"The issue with the Black Abyss Emperor needs to be resolved as soon as possible!"
A flicker of cold light flashed in Gu Qingfeng's eyes.
He has always repaid his grudges, and he has not forgotten when the Black Abyss Emperor ambushed him in the past.
Moreover.
This Ancient Great Emperor is also a considerable threat.
The wanton slaughter of lives by the Black Abyss Emperor, plundering Life Origin, shows that although he is a Human Clan Emperor, he is also an enemy of the Human Clan.
Therefore.
If there is an opportunity to kill the Black Abyss Emperor, Gu Qingfeng would gladly take it.
However.
He is waiting.
Waiting for a definitive piece of information.
Then.
Gu Qingfeng stepped into the Enlightenment Hall, continuing to seclude himself and comprehend the Taoist Scripture.
This Enlightenment Hall was constructed by him modeled after the Grinding Blade Hall.
This place.
Is naturally where Gu Qingfeng usually goes into seclusion.
Of course.
This seclusion is different from past retreats.
Gu Qingfeng does not stay secluded for long periods but comes out periodically to assess the cultivation progress of the younger generation and to explain the Great Tao of cultivation to everyone.
...
Once in seclusion.
It was half a year.
In the past six months.
Gu Qingfeng successfully evolved the Taoist Scripture to the Saint Chapter.
Although it can only be cultivated to the First Layer of the Saint Realm, it represents that the Taoist Scripture has truly advanced from the cultivation technique of the Dao Palace Realm to the Saint level technique.
Moreover.
After breaking through the barrier from Dao Palace Realm to Saint Realm, Gu Qingfeng found that deducing the Taoist Scripture was much smoother, no longer as obscure as before.
He then spent another six months, successfully advancing the Taoist Scripture to Saint Nine Layers Heaven.
Upon reaching this level, the previous sense of obscurity reappeared, and it was much more severe than the last time.
Gu Qingfeng understands.
The biggest problem with evolving cultivation techniques lies in crossing realms.
If one can break the shackles of the realm, subsequent evolution will become much easier until encountering the next shackle.
"To truly have the Taoist Scripture break through to the Great Saint level is not easy. Even with my current cultivation, it requires further consolidation to have hope!"
Gu Qingfeng murmured to himself, but he was not in a hurry. Everything was progressing steadily, so why should he rush?
Especially in this End of Dharma Era, where it's difficult for Saints to break through, the existence of the Taoist Scripture is already sufficient for the Gu Family to cultivate.
It must be noted.
Although the Taoist Scripture stops at Saint Nine Layers Heaven, this cultivation technique was created by Gu Qingfeng drawing from countless methods, with the Imperial Scripture as the foundation.
Making every step of the Taoist Scripture truly reach the limits of the realm.
Even if it is only the cultivation method of the Dao Palace Realm, it is in no way inferior to cultivation techniques of the same level in the Imperial Scripture and even exceeds them.
In this way.
Gu Qingfeng is in no hurry.
This year.
Gu Qingfeng is one hundred forty years old.
Cultivation at the Quasi-Emperor Late Stage.
When he just came out of seclusion, Hong Ye arrived gracefully.
"Greetings, Lord!"
"What's the matter?"
"You instructed the subordinates to investigate the whereabouts of the Black Abyss Emperor, and now there is news."
Hong Ye replied respectfully, then presented a Jade Talisman with both hands.
Moving with his Divine Thought, the content information contained in the Jade Talisman appeared in Gu Qingfeng's mind.
The information in the Jade Talisman was gathered by the Hidden Guard, indicating that ten days ago, a cultivator saw the Black Abyss Emperor forcibly break into the Nine Layers Heaven, leading to Xia Tianjun's intervention, and eventually, the former disappeared into the Chaos.
"Escaped!?"
Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly.
He is not afraid of the Black Abyss Emperor making a move, but if the opponent were to leave the Ancient Desolate World, it would be somewhat tricky.
After all, searching for someone in the vast Chaos is far from easy.
Moreover, the other party is still a powerhouse of the Emperor Realm.
Once the Black Abyss Emperor enters the Chaos, Gu Qingfeng realizes that his hope of slaying him is quite slim.
Unless.
This person appears before him voluntarily.
"Since he has already left the Ancient Desolate World, there is no need to pay attention to him for the time being. Now, how is the situation of the Divine Demon Forbidden Army?"
"Reporting to the Lord, currently, all thirty thousand of the Divine Demon Forbidden Army have broken through to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm, and thirty-six have stepped into the First Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!"
Hong Ye smiled faintly, adding a different charm to her cold demeanor.
Upon hearing this.
Gu Qingfeng nodded.
Since the appearance of the Divine Martial Forbidden Army, it has been about ten years. Achieving such progress, where all thirty thousand have reached at least the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm, is quite commendable.
Even though all Divine Demon Forbidden Army members have superior talent and Gu Qingfeng continuously provides resources, achieving breakthroughs this quickly is not easy.
What's more.
Some of the Divine Demon Forbidden Army have broken into the Dao Palace Realm.
At this speed, it won't be long before the entire Divine Demon Forbidden Army breaks through to the Dao Palace Realm. They might all reach the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm before the End of Dharma Era ends.
"The Divine Demon Forbidden Army has been cultivating diligently for so long; it's about time for some trials. When all of them have reached the Dao Palace Realm, take them to the Nine Layers Heaven to battle demons.
I have only one request: before the End of Dharma Era ends, all of them must reach the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm.
And after the End of Dharma Era, when the Great Struggle Prosperity Era arrives, some cultivators must break through to the Saint Realm!"
Gu Qingfeng said solemnly.
If these words were spread to others, it would seem unbelievable.
After all, it's not easy for an ordinary cultivator to break through to the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm, let alone all thirty thousand Divine Demon Forbidden Army.
Even with a steady supply of resources, reaching this point is no easy feat.
However.
In Gu Qingfeng's view.
This is the basic requirement.
The resources he provides to the Divine Demon Forbidden Army could deplete the foundation of many ancient Holy Lands if spread outside.
If all thirty thousand Divine Demon Forbidden Army cannot reach this stage, how are they different from other cultivators?
The reason Gu Qingfeng formed the Divine Demon Forbidden Army is to have a truly usable trump card, not a group of mediocre and ineffectual cultivators.
Indeed, if that were the case, why waste resources on deliberate cultivation?
In this matter.
Hong Ye also nodded solemnly.
"Rest assured, Lord, within five years, all Divine Demon Forbidden Army members will enter the Dao Palace Realm. At that time, I will lead them to the Nine Layers Heaven to purify themselves with the blood of the Demon Clan!"
"Go!"
Gu Qingfeng waved his hand, and Hong Ye respectfully withdrew.
Subsequently.
Gu Qingfeng turned his gaze toward the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, where thirty thousand Divine Demon Forbidden Army were all in sight.
Compared to ten years ago, the Divine Demon Forbidden Army now exudes a strong aura of iron and blood, indicating significant changes from their battles with numerous fierce beasts in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
Originally, Gu Qingfeng intended to have these Divine Demon Forbidden Army train in the Demon Realm, but after the Boundary Domain Channel shattered, he arranged for Hong Ye to position these troops in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
After all, with many fierce beasts, the Ancient Beast Mountain Range is a suitable training ground.
Unfortunately.
The strength of the fierce beasts in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range is not particularly strong. If the Divine Transformation Realm's power suffices, but once they enter the Dao Palace Realm, the role the Mountain Range can play becomes quite limited.
