Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Chapter 577: Chapter 369: Evil God_2

If possible, Gu Qingfeng naturally wants to eliminate the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor.

But unfortunately.

The existence of the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor is not something he can eliminate at present.

Even if he breaks through to the Emperor Realm later, trying to eliminate the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor is just a dream.

Before then.

Gu Qingfeng temporarily seals away the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor.

If the other party were at full strength, relying solely on the Divine Emperor Tripod, there would be no chance of suppressing the seal.

But now, the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor has been severely injured, and apart from possessing nearly undying traits, his strength has reduced to one-tenths; even a Saint King could easily suppress him.

And as a Great Saint Weapon, the Divine Emperor Tripod naturally has no problem sealing the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor.

Afterward.

Gu Qingfeng takes out the Deceit God Banner.

Looking at the black ancient banner before him, he is now completely certain that the Deceit God Banner is a product of the Upper Realm.

“Deceit God… Evil God!”

“According to the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor, this Deceit God Banner should be related to the Deceit God clan, but it’s unknown to what extent the Deceit God nurtured within this banner will ultimately reach!”

Gu Qingfeng thought to himself.

Heavenly Venerate!

Or the Immortal Heavenly Venerate!

Through the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor’s words, Gu Qingfeng also learned about the realm above the Great Emperor.

This level, regardless of whether it’s Evil God or Deceit God, or other beings, has a unified realm title.

Above the Great Emperor!

Is the Heavenly Venerate!

Above the Heavenly Venerate!

Is the Immortal Heavenly Venerate!

Even with Gu Qingfeng’s current eyesight, he couldn’t see the subtleties of the Deceit God Banner, and where the Deceit God nurtured within it might ultimately reach, he was uncertain.

However.

As it stands now.

Gu Qingfeng has recognized the Deceit God Banner as his master, so he doesn’t have to worry about the banner retaliating for the time being.

“Above the Great Emperor is the Heavenly Venerate, above the Heavenly Venerate is the Immortal Heavenly Venerate… At full strength, the Deceitful Heavenly Emperor was an Evil God at the Heavenly Venerate level!”

It’s a pity.

Although Gu Qingfeng is aware of the existence of the Heavenly Venerate and Immortal Heavenly Venerate, he temporarily does not know the exact differences at this level.

Taking a deep breath.

Gu Qingfeng ceases to think about this matter.

Whether it’s the Heavenly Venerate or the Immortal Heavenly Venerate, they’re not levels he can reach.

After all, until now, Gu Qingfeng has not truly stepped into the Emperor Realm, let alone the levels above that.

At the same time.

Gu Qingfeng is also somewhat curious.

With the mystique of the attribute panel, if he doesn’t enter the Upper Realm, can he still rely on this ability to directly break through the Great Emperor barriers and advance to the Heavenly Venerate or even Immortal Heavenly Venerate levels.

If he could, then the threats from the Immortal Domain would be insignificant.

Afterwards.

Gu Qingfeng secludes himself to continue practicing the Heavenly Vein True Scripture.

——

Time passes.

Three years in the blink of an eye.

In three years.

Significant transformations also took place in the Ancient Desolate World.

With more Evil Gods awakening and the relentless invasion from the Demon Realm, the entire Ancient Desolate World has been engulfed in the flames of war.

In the Eastern Domain.

The situation is even grimmer.

Previously, the Star Dynasty allied with Evil Spirits, sacrificing the lives of a state in blood rituals; various forces joint efforts to annihilate the Star Dynasty, but suffered significant injuries.

Later, the Demon Realm launched large-scale invasions, creating immense pressure.

As a force in the Eastern Domain, the Divine Martial Dynasty found it difficult to stay out of the fray.

After all, the Divine Martial Dynasty now controls the entire Guxing State, and when the Evil Gods and demons invaded, Guxing State was affected as well.

However.

A great number of Guxing State’s citizens and cultivators perished, causing its strength to plummet to the lowest point.

Among the 108 states in the Eastern Domain.

After being heavily damaged, Guxing State is almost at the bottom.

Fortunate.

Gu Yang, years ago, issued numerous edicts, not only allowing the Nine States’ cultivators to go to Guxing State to establish sects, but also recruiting many loose cultivators externally, promising corresponding benefits.

In doing so.

A large quantity of loose cultivators flocked to Guxing State, received court commission, occupied various Cave Heaven Blessed Lands to establish foundations.

Subsequently.

Some sects large and small, all coveted some Cave Heaven Blessed Lands in Guxing State, thereby relocating the whole sect there.

Such actions allowed Guxing State’s declining strength to recover rapidly in a short period.

Though in three years, Guxing State’s strength has not been restored to its former peak, it has improved significantly.

Because of this.

When demons invaded, Guxing State was able to block their erosion, preventing a full collapse.

…

“Reporting to the Emperor, there are signs of a Demon Lord in Tiankui Prefecture, the number of demons has surged, it’s likely they aim to use this opportunity to completely crush Tiankui Prefecture and open up the situation in Guxing State!”

In the court, a minister steps forward to report.

Gu Yang hears the words and immediately speaks: “Institute Envoy Chu!”

“Your servant is here!”

“With signs of a Demon Lord in Tiankui Prefecture, this matter will be handled by the Tribute Institute.”

“Your servant accepts the order!”

Chu Daoxuan bows and accepts.

Upon this sight.

Gu Yang nods slightly and says no more.

Now the Tribute Institute is crowded with strong individuals, and there are already more than fifty Semi-Saint level powerhouses there, with over five hundred cultivators in the Tiaoist Palace Realm.

Moreover.

The entrance threshold for the Tribute Institute has been raised again and again; without being at the seventh layer or above of the Tiaoist Palace Realm, there’s no qualification to join the Tribute Institute.

Though in the Eastern Domain, cultivators at the Tiaoist Palace Realm belong to top-tier powerhouses.

The Eastern Domain is vast.

Strong individuals are numerous.

Compared to the whole human clan in the Eastern Domain, the number of cultivators in the Tiaoist Palace Realm is not particularly rare.

Coupled with the current demon invasions, which are both a disaster and a great opportunity for the human clan.

Therefore.

Over the years.

The human clan’s powerhouses have emerged just like bamboo shoots after rain.

Coupled with the battle against the Star Dynasty, Gu Qingfeng’s terrifying combat might shocked the world, and the Divine Martial Dynasty’s prestige rose once more.

Nowadays, anyone with discernment can see that the Divine Martial Dynasty advancing to an Imperial Dynasty is simply a matter of time.

Even stepping into the Imperial Dynasty might not be the limit of the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Thus.

Numerous cultivators naturally want to ally with the Divine Martial Dynasty and willingly enter the Tribute Institute for cultivation.

Now the Tribute Institute not only possesses numerous strong individuals, but also has some Holy Weapons and Great Saint Weapons.

Although the Demon Lord is formidable, he does not have the audacity to act arrogantly in front of the Tribute Institute.

Later.

Another minister reports other matters.

Guxing State is vast.

There are signs of demons in many places.

Adding to this the appearance of Evil Gods.

These matters ultimately must be reported to Gu Yang, and then he makes arrangements.

In response.

Gu Yang also provides countermeasures.

Once all matters are settled, in the end, Gu Yang looks at the ministers below and speaks with a solemn tone.

“Now the court has subdued Guxing State, national fortune is steadily rising, I have a premonition that it won’t be long before our Divine Martial Dynasty can ascend to the ranks of Imperial Dynasties.

Therefore, before this, we must guard against demon and Evil Spirit invasions; if either appears, it must be fully suppressed, cannot allow it to harm the Divine Martial people and hinder the court’s progression!”

As these words are spoken.

Everyone is invigorated, their faces showing excitement.

“Your servants follow the order!”

Elevation to an Imperial Dynasty!

Though over the years, there have been rumors stating the Divine Martial Dynasty could ascend to an Imperial Dynasty, until now, whether it truly would ascend, or when it might, remained uncertain.

Yet now Gu Yang personally speaks, affirming this matter, dispelling all doubts within everyone’s hearts.

Advancing national fortune.

This offers immense benefits to everyone.

Especially officials with governmental positions; if the Divine Martial Dynasty ascends to an Imperial Dynasty, they would also receive national fortune blessings and corresponding benefits.

Realm breakthrough.

At that time, it would merely be routine.

Currently, those truly able to maintain their calm are probably just a few individuals like Chu Daoxuan.

Their strength already reached the Semi-Saint Realm, and before the Great Struggle Prosperity Era truly arrives, no matter how great the opportunity, it won’t break the Semi-Saint barrier to truly advance to the Saint Realm.

Of course.

If the Divine Martial Dynasty does indeed ascend to an Imperial Dynasty, it is ultimately beneficial for them.
