Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

If it's possible to blood sacrifice the entire Ancient Desolate World, Gu Qingfeng could extract the bloodline power belonging to the Ancient Demon God from it.

Using such bloodline power of the Ancient Demon God as nourishment, Gu Qingfeng has absolute confidence in forming the Ancient Chaos Body.

However—

This thought had just emerged when Gu Qingfeng immediately dismissed it.

Blood sacrificing the Ancient Desolate World is not something he would do.

As the saying goes, a true man knows what should and should not be done.

If one blindly pursues power, forsaking everything else, then one becomes a slave to that power. Even reaching the peak would mean losing oneself entirely.

The phrase "stay true to your original intention."

Is easy to say.

But truly upholding it is much harder said than done.

Gu Qingfeng indeed desires power, but he would never do such a thing.

After all.

Being of the same Human Clan.

Gu Qingfeng would not slaughter his own kind for self-achievement.

This is his moral boundary.

Considered as his final holdfast.

"If not blood-sacrificing the Ancient Desolate World, then there is only one way, which is to collect the bloodline crystals of other Ancient Demon Gods, and the powers remaining in the chaos, to use the powers of various Ancient Demon Gods to help me form the Ancient Chaos Body!"

Gu Qingfeng already had an idea in his heart.

To practice the Ancient Chaos Body.

It holds extraordinary significance for him.

At his level, the Ancient Immortal Body has little use.

Even the most top-tier Immortal Body's limits are in the Emperor Realm, and upon reaching the Half-step Heavenly Venerate or even Heavenly Venerate level, such physique is of little aid.

Or rather.

Not completely useless, just the effect is negligible.

But advancing to the Chaos Immortal Body is a different case.

The Ancient Demon Gods could contend with the Heavenly Venerates of the Immortal Domain relying on the Chaos Immortal Body, this supreme immortal body born from chaos, capable of rivaling the Heavenly Venerate level.

Gu Qingfeng's current strength already affords him the chance to challenge a Heavenly Venerate from the Immortal Domain, and if he could form the Ancient Chaos Body, his power would reach a new height.

At that time.

Even a Heavenly Venerate from the Immortal Domain.

Gu Qingfeng would have the confidence to suppress.

However—

To practice the Ancient Chaos Body is a monumental task.

Such an endeavor cannot be rushed; everything must be approached slowly and carefully.

—

After exiting seclusion.

Gu Qingfeng immediately summoned Hong Ye.

"Greetings to my lord!"

A red-garbed Hong Ye maintained her usual demeanor of respectfulness.

When Gu Qingfeng's gaze fell upon her, all secrets seemed to vanish.

"It seems you've gained quite a bit from the Longevity Cave Heaven!"

From Hong Ye.

Gu Qingfeng sensed the aura of the Emperor Bloodline.

This meant that she had gained defying opportunities from Longevity Cave Heaven, causing her bloodline to transform.

One must know.

The Emperor Bloodline is exceedingly powerful.

Even an incomplete Emperor Bloodline possesses astonishing power.

Hong Ye, as a Death Soldier, though innately talented, would find it difficult to break through to Saint, let alone advance further.

But the Emperor Bloodline is different.

Even an incomplete Emperor Bloodline is immensely valuable for other cultivators, and during a Saint King's breakthrough to Quasi Emperor, such bloodline can play a crucial role.

Though Hong Ye hadn't yet reached the Saint King Realm, only at the Great Saint Realm First Level, having the Emperor Bloodline greatly enhanced her power.

"I have an assignment for you!"

Gu Qingfeng spoke before Hong Ye could reply.

Hearing this, she respectfully said: "I will do whatever my lord orders!"

"In the epochs older than the Ancient Times, there were Ancient Demon Gods revered in chaos. Later, during the great calamity of the Immortal Domain, all Ancient Demon Gods perished.

Now, remnants of Ancient Demon God exist in chaos, and I want you to lead the Divine Demon Forbidden Army to collect all bloodline powers remaining from Ancient Demon Gods."

Gu Qingfeng spoke.

The bloodline power of the Ancient Demon Gods is too scattered, and with only himself, gathering the power to form the Ancient Chaos Body is a task as daunting as ascending to heaven.

Therefore.

Gu Qingfeng thought of the Divine Demon Forbidden Guard.

Currently, the Divine Demon Forbidden Guard had gained opportunities from the Longevity Cave Heaven, their powers greatly improved, and with a Great Saint Realm expert like Hong Ye leading them, while they may not rampage through chaos, they can handle most dangers.

Upon hearing,

Hong Ye did not refuse.

"I shall comply!"

"Take this with you, even an Emperor can be suppressed!"

Gu Qingfeng extended his hand and the Demon Suppressing Sword manifested as a streaking light before Hong Ye. Upon seeing the Blood Sword momentarily, an overwhelming force engulfed her.

In that instant.

Hong Ye felt her entire body's vitality trembling, and her calm face showed a look of shock.

With her current Great Saint Realm cultivation, facing the power of the Demon Suppressing Sword caused her a deep sense of reverence.

Fortunately.

The power of the Demon Suppressing Sword had already been sealed by Gu Qingfeng. Unless someone deliberately activated its divine thought, this Creation Spiritual Treasure would not unleash its true might.

Otherwise.

With the might of a Creation Spiritual Treasure, even a Great Saint would find it hard to resist.

The reason for allowing Hong Ye to take the Demon Suppressing Sword is Gu Qingfeng's consideration of the dreadfulness of the Ancient Demon Gods.

Even if fallen, the residual power of a being like Taoluo Demon God or others would be no simple affair should it encounter a particularly ferocious Ancient Demon God.

Gu Qingfeng wouldn't naively believe all Ancient Demon Gods would be as reasonable as Taoluo Demon God.

From Taoluo Demon God's memories, Ancient Demon Gods were always bloodthirsty, and when they ruled all of chaos, wars never ceased.

Therefore.

Collecting the powers of Ancient Demon Gods is not an easy task.

But having the Demon Suppressing Sword in hand would mean even if problems arise, the power of a Creation Spiritual Treasure can easily suppress them.

...

Hong Ye departed!

She led over twenty thousand Divine Demon Forbidden Army troops and the Creation Spiritual Treasure into chaos.

Gu Qingfeng resumed his day-to-day life, guiding the cultivation of the Gu Family descendants.

It must be said.

Gu Qingfeng obtained three Quasi-Emperor Direct Ascension Pills.

One was given to Xu Yulan, another to Gu Peng, allowing both of them to break through to the Quasi Emperor Peak level.

The former was his wife from his early days, and the latter had stayed by his side for centuries, hardworking and uncomplaining, and Gu Qingfeng naturally didn't forget such matters.

Furthermore.

Whether Xu Yulan or Gu Peng, their talents were ordinary, and without major opportunities, breaking through to Quasi Emperor was almost impossible.

Now, using the Quasi-Emperor Direct Ascension Pill to break through saved considerable effort.

The last Quasi-Emperor Direct Ascension Pill was given to Hong Ye.

Before leading the Divine Demon Forbidden Army into chaos, Gu Qingfeng forcibly raised this commanding military leader's cultivation to Quasi Emperor Peak.

Even during the Great Struggle Prosperity Era, there weren't many Quasi Emperor cultivators, and those reaching Quasi Emperor Peak were rare.

The power of this level is just a step away from the Great Emperor.

Since the end of the war against demons, the number of Emperor Realm experts in the vast chaos is scant.

More importantly.

These Great Emperors are mostly in seclusion.

Because everyone knows, in this era, the Immortal Gate is destined to open, and the opportunity for longevity will also appear.

If the Great Emperors of the current era wish to seek longevity, they must seize this opportunity.

The peril of the Immortal Domain.

Is needless to say.

Without enough power, even stepping into the Immortal Domain might not guarantee successfully attaining enlightenment.

Therefore.

Under such circumstances, many Great Emperors naturally went into seclusion, hoping to have enough power to enter the Immortal Domain and attain longevity when the Immortal Gate opens.

The same applies to Great Emperors.

It's the same for other Quasi Emperors.

What they must do is step into the Emperor Realm as much as possible before the Immortal Gate opens and compete for the opportunity for longevity.

In such a situation, the majority of top-tier powerhouses in chaos are in seclusion, and with Hong Ye's Quasi Emperor Peak cultivation, plus the Creation Spiritual Treasure, there is almost no danger she cannot handle.

After all, with such power, even a Great Emperor would bleed, let alone other issues.
