Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Chapter 284: Chapter 224 Strong Soul (Happy National Day!)

“Your progeny ‘Gu Yang’ ordered surveillance over the Ancient Beast Mountain Range and concurrently conducted thorough investigations within the Nine States, to prevent unidentified numbers from infiltrating!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Yang’ studied the Beast Taming Scripture and gained some insights!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xuan’ acquired guidance from a Divine Transformation Realm Nine Layers cultivator and his cultivation improved!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Shengnan’ cultivated the Green Lotus Sword Scripture and gained some understanding, slightly enhancing his strength!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xiu’ cultivated the Sun and Moon Fist Scripture and gained some understanding, slightly enhancing his cultivation!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xiu’ received a legacy left by a mysterious yet powerful entity, and his strength improved!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xiu’ received guidance from remnants of a strong soul, and his cultivation improved!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xiu’ took an Ancient Elixir and made a significant breakthrough in cultivation, advancing to Bone Refining Perfection!”

“Reward points *30!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xiu’ took an Ancient Elixir and made a significant breakthrough in cultivation, advancing to the Initial Stage of Marrow Cleansing!”

“Reward points *50!”

“Your progeny ‘Gu Xiu’ took an Ancient Elixir and made a significant breakthrough in cultivation, advancing to the Mid-level Stage of Marrow Cleansing!”

“Reward points *50!”

…

“Mysterious legacy!”

“Remnants of a strong soul?”

Gu Qingfeng looked at the text appearing on the information panel, his expression slightly peculiar.

After relocating from Gu Family Manor to the Capital, Gu Xiu began his journey of outside training.

Regarding this,

Gu Qingfeng also did not stop him.

He only repeatedly cautioned Gu Xiu not to venture into the Ancient Beast Mountain, as the dangers within were abundant, and even a moment of carelessness could lead to his demise.

Regarding this,

Gu Xiu nodded in agreement.

However, what Gu Qingfeng found unexpected was that it hadn’t been long since Gu Xiu left the Gu Family Manor, and he had already encountered extraordinary opportunities and apparently, even gained an old grandfather by his side.

A remnant of a strong soul!

Such a thing was all too familiar.

First with Gu Yang, then with Gu Xuan, and now with Gu Xiu, Gu Qingfeng found himself lost in thought.

He realized,

his descendants seemed to possess good Qi Fortune.

However, this was also favorable.

Their laissez-faire style of upbringing allowed for more unpredictability.

Like in Gu Xiu’s case,

his Cultivation Realm could have been lagging behind Gu Xuan by several levels, yet one single Ancient Elixir bridged all these gaps.

If Gu Xiu had continued his cultivation within the Gu Family Manor, it would have been debatable whether he could have achieved Bone Refining Perfection at the current moment, let alone stepping into the Marrow Cleansing Realm.

“Speaking of which, it’s about time Xuan’er and Xiu’er considered marriage and having children to extend the Gu Family bloodline…”

Gu Qingfeng pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

“Well, the blessings for the descendants are their own; such matters should not be forced.”

“Continuing the bloodline must rely on the oldest.”

Gu Yang, now the ruler of the Nine States, fathered three offspring. With his current status and position, it was destined that he would continue to expand the family lineage.

So,

these matters, Gu Qingfeng believed, were understood by Gu Yang without needing to be spelled out.

Afterward,

Gu Qingfeng shifted his attention back to the Ancient Heavenly Blade.

This divine skill passed down by the Saint was indeed mysteriously profound, and although Gu Qingfeng had entered its beginner levels, advancing further was not so simple.

To upgrade the Ancient Heavenly Blade using reward points would require a full two thousand points.

For Gu Qingfeng now,

two thousand points were quite a lot.

However,

now with Gu Yang and others having grown, each advancement in their respective realms could bring in a substantial amount of reward points, incomparable to the past.

Similar to Gu Yang’s other progeny, a breakthrough at Blood Refining Realm used to yield only twenty points, but a breakthrough in Marrow Cleansing Realm now yielded fifty points.

Such an increase was already more than a double fold.

Then again,

it was time for Gu Yang’s breakthrough.

When he advanced to the Grandmaster Realm, one could yield three hundred points at once, and now advancing to the Grandmaster Realm directly yielded five hundred points.

If Gu Yang moved from the initial stage of Grandmaster Realm to the peak, he could garner a total of two thousand points.

Looking at it this way,

the necessity of two thousand points to upgrade a divine skill once seemed not so daunting.

Furthermore, more importantly,

once Gu Yang broke through the barrier of Grandmaster and stepped into Divine Transformation Realm or even higher levels, the reward points provided would only increase.

This,

was the advantage of the first progeny.

…

“Elder, is the Ancient Desolate World truly teeming with powerful beings?”

In a certain tavern, Gu Xiu sat alone at a table laden with wine and dishes, yet his attention was on the ring in his hand.

Within this ring lay the remnant soul of the being known as Emperor Extreme Great Saint.

Hearing this,

Emperor Extreme Great Saint spoke gravely, “The Ancient Desolate World is divided into Five Domains, numerous top-tier sects and noble families abound, packed with powerhouses, unimaginable to you.”

“In your Nine States, achieving Grandmaster is already exceedingly rare, yet in the past within the Southern Domain, the Emperor Extreme Sacred Land I founded regarded Grandmasters merely as basic disciples.”

Hearing his words, a shock ran through Gu Xiu’s heart.

The Five Domains of the Ancient Desolate World!

Emperor Extreme Sacred Land!

From the mere few words of Emperor Extreme Great Saint, Gu Xiu seemed to glimpse a vast expanse of heaven and earth.

Then,

curious, Gu Xiu asked, “Since Elder is a powerhouse of the Southern Domain, why then appear in the Nine States?”

Hearing this question,

Emperor Extreme Great Saint fell silent for a short while.

After a long pause,

he slowly replied, “Actually, the Nine States are not as simple as you think; it is rumored that in the most ancient of times, this place once gave rise to a supreme force.
