Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

As Gu Yang departed.

Gu Qingfeng returned to his previous life.

At his level, there was no room for improvement; even the effect of the Bloodline Crystal was almost negligible.

Therefore.

Instead of secluding himself.

Gu Qingfeng spent more time instructing the younger generation of the Gu Family in their cultivation.

With him, the foremost ancestor, guiding them, it was undoubtedly a great opportunity for the younger members of the Gu Family.

In such circumstances.

The strength of the Gu Family steadily increased.

Meanwhile.

The bloodline scale of the Gu Family also grew day by day.

In the Divine Martial Era 2700, the Gu Family bloodline had surpassed thirty thousand, and by the Divine Martial Era 2800, it had exceeded fifty thousand.

In that year.

Gu Qingfeng was three thousand and ten years old.

In the same year.

The rumors about the Immortal Gate grew more intense.

The entire Chaos knew that it wouldn't be long before the Immortal Gate would open and the opportunity for Longevity would fully appear before everyone's eyes.

At that moment.

Many cultivators were driven to madness.

Although they understood that without reaching the Emperor Realm, touching the opportunity of Longevity was nearly impossible.

However—

Every matter has its exception.

Even with only a one in ten thousand chance, they still wanted to fight for it.

The reason was simple.

The two words: Longevity.

Who could resist such temptation?

Nonetheless.

The reason this news spread so widely was naturally due to Divine Martial's role in propagating it.

By spreading this news, Gu Yang intended to use the power of the entire Chaos to forcefully open the door to Longevity.

Regarding this matter.

Not only did it spark endless discussions in the Martial World.

Even within the court, many officials were scheming.

"The opportunity for Longevity!"

In the Demon Suppression Bureau, Jiang Nanfeng's expression was fervent. Even with his historically unperturbed heart, upon hearing these two words now, he became deeply unsettled.

Longevity!

Who would not wish to possess it?

Among the nine Great Emperors of Divine Martial today, Jiang Nanfeng was one of them.

As a contemporary Great Emperor, Jiang Nanfeng had his own ambitions.

"The treasury of the Demon Suppression Bureau is fully opened from today. Any member of the Demon Suppression Army can exchange their merits for the resources they need!"

Jiang Nanfeng looked at the few Deputy Commanders below and commanded.

Upon hearing these words, they exchanged glances and bowed in acceptance.

"Subordinates comply!"

With that said.

They respectfully retreated.

As one of the key departments under the court, the Demon Suppression Bureau was a formidable force, not to mention having Jiang Nanfeng, one of the Great Emperors, which significantly strengthened the foundation of the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Over more than two thousand years.

The treasury of the Demon Suppression Bureau had unknowingly accumulated countless resources.

Now.

Jiang Nanfeng intended to release all these resources to enhance the strength of the Demon Suppression Army.

After all, if the Immortal Gate opened, it would surely be a fierce battle. Without sufficient strength, aspiring for Longevity would be a mere dream.

Although in Jiang Nanfeng's eyes, unless one was an equal Emperor, it was difficult to truly gain entry, yet adding a bit more foundation was not a bad thing.

Soon.

The actions of the Demon Suppression Bureau spread rapidly.

In no time.

The Heavenly Patrol Guard!

The Jinyi Guard!

And many others began to imitate this approach.

Elsewhere.

Gu Yang also mobilized the court's treasury to nurture a large number of talented prodigies, making the intent crystal clear.

In such circumstances, others felt an impending sense of looming disaster.

——

Thirty years of spring and autumn.

Passed quietly.

On this day, the previously calm Chaos suddenly trembled violently, as if a terrifying Dao Rhythm rampaged, descending suddenly like an aura capable of destroying countless star systems, causing all living beings in Chaos to have a foreboding feeling.

They looked up in a unified direction, only to see that in the endless Chaos, vast thunderbolts converged, and a bronze portal filled with ancient and supreme aura slowly emerged from the void.

The profound and frightening pressure changed the complexion of all the cultivators.

Meanwhile.

Numerous Emperor Realm powerhouses had expressions of joy on their faces.

"That is the Immortal Gate!"

"At the end of this splendid era, the Immortal Gate descends, the opportunity for Longevity should commence in this era!"

"Good, good, good, not in vain did I go to all lengths to prove my Dao; in the end, I have waited for Longevity to descend—"

Each Great Emperor's mind was roused as they looked at the appearing bronze portal, the aura different from the lower Chaos made them feel as though they could taste Longevity.

"The Immortal Gate has appeared, all cultivators prepare for battle!"

Within the Ancient Xia Family, Xia Tianjun immediately summoned all the Xia Family's senior officials, and while speaking, he looked beside him at Xia Qiuqiu.

"The outcome of this battle is unknown, but we must remember the lessons of the Taiyi Divine Dynasty. If we are defeated, we must ensure the Xia Family bloodline continues.

Therefore, before that happens, as the current Family Head, you will lead the younger generation's prodigies into the ancestral grounds of the Xia Family and avoid participating in the Great Tribulation!"

"The younger generation understands!"

Xia Qiuqiu's expression was severe, not daring to be at all careless.

After all, this matter concerns the survival of the Xia Family, and he could not afford any negligence.

The Taiyi Divine Dynasty.

Was a lesson in the past.

The Ancient Great Tribulation.

The descent of the Immortal Gate.

Many forces were thus extinguished, cutting off their bloodline heritage.

Years ago, the Xia Family acted in this way to preserve a part of their bloodline to endure until now.

As a force passed down from Ancient Times, the Xia Family understood better than anyone how terrifying the Immortal Gate Tribulation truly was.

"Longevity!"

"I, the Great Emperor, will claim it!"

Xia Tianjun's eyes were cold; when he looked again at the Immortal Gate, a strong battle will emanated from him.

The Ancient Great Tribulation!

He couldn't participate.

But this time, Xia Tianjun would not miss it.
