Chapter 407: Chapter 282: The Strengthening of Bloodlines_2
——
Spring passes and autumn comes.
Time flies.
Ever since Gu Qingfeng personally took action and slew a Saint Realm fierce beast, the Divine Martial Dynasty’s advance into the Ancient Beast Mountain Range has quickened considerably.
In just three years,
the Divine Martial Dynasty has almost completely conquered the entire Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
Because of this,
the power of the Divine Martial Dynasty has advanced by leaps and bounds over the past few years.
After all, the Ancient Beast Mountain Range is rich in resources, and the flesh and inner cores of many fierce beasts are extremely beneficial.
Even though the army suffered significant casualties in battles with the fierce beasts, those who survived saw their strength improve to various extents.
Thus,
on the whole,
the foundation of the Divine Martial Dynasty is much stronger now compared to three years ago.
“Your Majesty!”
“In another six months, the army should be able to conquer the entire Ancient Beast Mountain Range. However, we have discovered an unusual place within the mountain range. Many scouts who ventured deep into that area have disappeared without a trace.”
“Later, a scout managed to return alive and reported that there is a suspected Saint Realm fierce beast in that area!”
In the court, Shi Zhen reported with cupped fists.
Upon hearing the words “Saint Realm fierce beast,” the court did not stir much.
After all, several thousand years ago, the Divine Martial Dynasty had already slain a Saint Realm fierce beast, so news of another Saint Realm fierce beast did not cause much of a stir in their hearts.
“A Saint Realm fierce beast…”
Gu Yang furrowed his brows slightly.
“Has this fierce beast blocked the army’s path?”
“No, it has not!”
“Since it has not, then we shall not concern ourselves with it for now.”
Gu Yang waved his hand, having no intention of provoking another Saint Realm fierce beast.
After all, the power of the last Saint Realm fierce beast had already shown Gu Yang that even with the Divine Phoenix Tower in his possession, it would be difficult to subdue it.
If it were not for Gu Qingfeng stepping in to slay that beast at the critical moment, the Divine Martial Dynasty would have angered it, necessitating careful defense against the beast’s attacks in the future.
Of course,
Gu Yang could also ask Gu Qingfeng to take action and solve this fierce beast.
But after some thought,
Gu Yang gave up on that idea.
If the Divine Martial Dynasty wants to grow stronger, it cannot rely solely on Gu Qingfeng; it must have sufficient foundational strength of its own.
Compared to asking Gu Qingfeng to take action, Gu Yang would rather see the Divine Martial Dynasty handle the fierce beast with its own strength.
Upon hearing Gu Yang’s words, Shi Zhen obeyed and withdrew.
Afterwards,
others reported some events occurring in the Nine States, which Gu Yang addressed one by one, and the court session finally came to an end.
After the court session,
Gu Yang immediately returned to his place of seclusion. Moments later, his aura surged, indicating a breakthrough.
“It’s the Third Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!”
Gu Yang exhaled and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Upon inspecting himself internally, one would find a fearsome inner core of a fierce beast resting in his Dantian, gradually being refined by him.
This inner core belonged to the Saint Realm fierce beast from back then.
Since acquiring this inner core, Gu Yang had been refining it day and night, advancing his cultivation from the First Layer of the Dao Palace Realm to the Third Layer in just three years.
But even so,
the power of the fierce beast’s inner core had not been entirely depleted.
According to Gu Yang’s estimation, the power of this fierce beast’s inner core should at least allow him to breakthrough to the Fifth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm or higher.
And to completely refine the fierce beast’s inner core, in Gu Yang’s view, should not take too long.
Within ten years,
this fierce beast’s inner core should be fully refined.
Ten years’ time,
to advance from the First Layer to the Fifth Layer and beyond in the Dao Palace Realm, something that is absolutely unimaginable for others.
“The Ancient Beast Mountain Range has existed for countless years. The Saint Realm fierce beasts there are likely more than just one or two. Once my power advances further, I will use the Divine Phoenix Tower to eliminate all of them!”
Gu Yang’s eyes turned cold as he closed them to continue refining the fierce beast’s inner core.
As for the Divine Martial Dynasty’s campaigns into the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, slaughtering numerous fierce beasts and creating much carnage, Gu Yang felt little emotional disturbance.
Fierce beasts eat humans!
Humans eat fierce beasts!
It’s simply the natural cycle.
In the past, fierce beasts often caused disasters for the people of the Nine States. Now that the Divine Martial Dynasty has the strength to invade the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, showing no mercy is only natural.
Moreover,
conflicts between species have never been about right or wrong, but simply different perspectives.
Therefore,
Gu Yang now only focuses on enhancing his own strength. Everything else is of no concern to him.
…
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ has refined the inner core of a fierce beast, advancing to the Second Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!”
“Reward: Upgrade Points *900!”
“Reward: Nourishing God Pill*100!”
“Reward: Enlightenment Pill*100!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xiu’ was attacked by demons *236549 times!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xiu’ was attacked by demons *366393 times!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xiu’ swept through many forces in the Demon Realm, causing a stir!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xiu’ refined the Demon Core, breaking through to the Second Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!”
“Reward: Upgrade Points*500!”
“Your offspring…”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xiu’ refined the Demon Core, breaking through to the Third Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!”
“Reward: Upgrade Points*500!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xiu’ refined the Demon Core, breaking through to the Fourth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!”
“Reward: Upgrade Points*500!”
“…”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Xuan’ listened to a lecture by a strong figure from the Taixu Sacred Land, feeling enlightened and slightly improving cultivation!”
“You have a new offspring born!”
“You named him Gu Yunfeng!”
“You have a new offspring born!”
“You named her Gu Yunyue!”
“Your offspring ‘Gu Yang’ refined the Fierce Beast Core, breaking through to the Third Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!”
“Reward: Upgrade Points*900!”
“Reward: Nourishing God Pill*100!”
“Reward: Enlightenment Pill*100!”
…
“Yang’er broke through again!”
Gu Qingfeng glanced at his information panel, and when he saw Gu Yang’s breakthrough, there was a slight ripple on his otherwise calm face, but it soon vanished.
For three years.
The overall strength of the Gu Family has increased significantly.
Among them.
The fastest in cultivation improvement is Gu Xiu.
After all, the other party has the entire resources of the Sky Demon Holy Land as support, which is extraordinary.
Then.
It was Gu Yang following closely behind.
Among the three sons.
Only Gu Xuan has been lingering in the First Layer of the Dao Palace Realm for the past three years.
But in fact, this is the correct way of cultivation.
Every breakthrough in the Dao Palace Realm emphasizes accumulation, even those with a Divine Body cannot break through a realm in just a few years.
Unless.
There is a great opportunity.
For example, Gu Xiu, and also Gu Yang.
However—
Even though Gu Xuan’s cultivation is significantly behind, Gu Qingfeng is still quite optimistic about him.
As the possessor of the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body, Gu Xuan’s future achievements are destined to not be low.
The current pace, fast or slow, doesn’t determine anything.
Then.
There are some breakthroughs of other members of the Gu Family.
But compared to these, what Gu Qingfeng cares about most is the further growth of the Gu Family’s bloodline.
A year ago.
Ji Qingyu and Lin Xia respectively gave birth to a son and a daughter, allowing the Gu Family’s bloodline to continue.
For this.
Gu Yang personally brought his two grandchildren to the Gu Family Manor, asking Gu Qingfeng to personally name them.
Gu Qingfeng naturally did not refuse this request.
Including the newly born Gu Yunfeng and Gu Yunyue, the number of the Gu Family’s bloodline has broken into double digits.
For this.
Gu Qingfeng seems to see a future where the Gu Family’s bloodline flourishes everywhere.
After all, he is just over sixty years old and already has great-grandchildren.
As time goes on, the speed of the Gu Family’s bloodline proliferation will surely accelerate.
This situation is something Gu Qingfeng is happy to see.
Then.
He also glanced at his attribute panel.
Including the breakthroughs of Gu Yang and other younger members of the Gu Family, Gu Qingfeng’s upgrade points have surpassed the five thousand mark, reaching a total of five thousand six hundred and twelve points.
However.
This is not what satisfies Gu Qingfeng the most.
The most satisfying thing for him is that after years of arduous cultivation, the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Skill has finally reached the Beginner stage.
Strictly speaking.
This is the first Great Saint’s Divine Skill that Gu Qingfeng has independently cultivated to the Beginner stage, of extraordinary significance.
