Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!-Chapter 294 - 228 Heavenly Phoenix Great Saint
Chapter 294: Chapter 228 Heavenly Phoenix Great Saint
Listening to Fu He’s words, Gu Qingfeng remained calm, showing no hint of emotional change.
After a long pause,
He finally replied with a faint smile, “Thank you, Mr. Fu, for the information, I am deeply grateful!”
Immediately after,
Gu Qingfeng changed the subject.
“Nowadays, outside Tianxiong Pass, mystical phenomena are emerging, suggesting that a secret realm shall soon open. Since Mr. Fu has come, why not stay at the prefectural office for a while and await the moment?”
“Then I thank you, Mr. Gu!”
Fu He did not decline; he had come with the purpose of finding out if the emerging secret realm presented an opportunity for his own breakthrough in the Taoist Palace Realm.
Afterward,
Gu Qingfeng had someone arrange accommodations for Fu He.
In the following days,
The mystical phenomena in heaven and earth grew more and more intense.
It was not only visible in the Nine States and the Ancient Beast Mountain Range but even cultivators in the Eastern Domain detected such disturbances.
For a time,
Guangyang Prefecture was teeming with powerhouses.
Among them,
The majority of these strong individuals had entered Tianxiong Pass, quietly waiting for their chance.
Three days later,
Gu Yang also led his army to the scene.

However,
This time Gu Yang did not bring a large military force but simply the Heavenly Gang Army.
After all, the most elite force of the Divine Martial Dynasty currently was the Heavenly Gang Army.
In this period, Gu Yang had Shi Zhen reorganize the Heavenly Gang Army, ensuring that the weakest of the thirty-six thousand soldiers were at least in the Marrow Cleansing Realm, while the strongest could even step into the Grandmaster Realm.
With Shi Zhen, a top Great Grandmaster, leading the army and once the Heavenly Gang Divine Evil Array was formed, even cultivators in the Divine Transformation Realm would pose no challenge.
Therefore,
When Gu Yang led the Heavenly Gang Army, it immediately drew considerable attention.
“This military force is quite remarkable; although their cultivation is a little lacking, such a murderous aura can only be truly honed on the battlefield!”
“I heard that the Divine Martial Dynasty has only been established for a mere year, and before its establishment, martial practice in the Nine States was in decline, with Great Grandmasters being quite rare.
It is indeed unusual for Emperor Gu to amass such power in such a short time.”
Many cultivators nodded privately in approval of the elite Heavenly Gang Army; of course, this was merely appreciation.
After all, in the Eastern Domain, such an army would not be considered top-tier, but in places like the Nine States, it was indeed impressive enough to turn heads.
“Heh, the Nine States are not as simple as they appear on the surface; don’t forget how Blood Cloud Ancestor met his end!”
A cultivator sneered, and upon hearing these words, everyone’s expressions stiffened before becoming grave.
They realized that the Nine States were actually not weak.
Even if martial practice seemed feeble on the surface, top experts in the Tao Palace Realm were hidden in the shadows.
Those who arrived later learned from other cultivators that top experts in the Tao Palace Realm resided in the Nine States, who had taken down Blood Cloud Ancestor with just two moves.
Afterward,
Another cultivator scoffed: “I’ve heard that the Guiyuan Dynasty lost a prince here, and Ji Meng has led the Divine Emperor Army of a hundred thousand into the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, reportedly with a Semi-Saint artifact in tow, planning to burst directly through the Beast Mountain Range.
Once the Guiyuan Dynasty arrives, things are likely to get interesting!”
Guiyuan Dynasty!
Semi-Saint artifact!
Upon hearing these words, the other cultivators couldn’t help but gasp.
In an era without Saints, the Guiyuan Dynasty was naturally one of the top forces, and they had heard of Ji Meng’s reputation as well, a powerful being in the Seventh Layer of the Tao Palace Realm.
“It is said that eight hundred years ago, the Guiyuan Dynasty clashed with an ancient Holy Land, and Ji Meng led the Divine Emperor Army, encircling and killing a top expert in the Ninth Layer of the Tao Palace Realm.
Since that battle, the Divine Emperor Army’s reputation has soared.
It’s unexpected that, for a mere prince, the Guiyuan Dynasty would allow the Divine Emperor Army to mobilize!”
“Hmph, avenging the prince may be a ruse; the true aim might be the Saint Inheritance from the old Divine Sun Sacred Land.”
Regardless of the intentions of the Guiyuan Dynasty, upon hearing the news that Ji Meng had led the hundred thousand Divine Emperor Army, carrying a Semi-Saint artifact to shatter the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, many cultivators were inwardly shaken.
However,
Some cultivators eagerly anticipated the outcome.
When two tigers fight, one is sure to get injured.
While the Divine Martial Dynasty was indeed a newly established dynasty, it had top Tao Palace Realm experts at its helm, but the deep reserves of the Guiyuan Dynasty were also no simple matter.
A battle between the two could present an opportunity to benefit as the third party.
…
At this moment,
Gu Yang had already led his army into Xing’an County.
He was well aware of the incident with Blood Cloud Ancestor.
When he learned that Gu Qingfeng had slain Blood Cloud Ancestor, Gu Yang was shocked at first, but quickly recovered.
He was somewhat aware of Gu Qingfeng’s strength, so while killing a Third Level Tao Palace Realm expert was surprising, it quickly became something he could accept.
Within the prefectural office,
Gu Yang, looking at Gu Yi before him, spoke, “Have the Hidden Guard closely monitor every movement in Guangyang Prefecture, and remember not to reveal themselves.”
The Hidden Guard was a sharp sword in his hand, but their overall strength was not too formidable. If they encountered external powerhouses, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed.
“As you command!”
Gu Yi bowed and accepted the order, then retreated.
Afterward,
Gu Yang had someone bring Gu Xuan to him, and the two had a long conversation.
From Gu Xuan’s recount, Gu Yang gained a clearer picture of what had transpired during this period.
After all, when Gu Xuan had disappeared without a trace from the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, Gu Yang had secretly dispatched people to search for him, but sadly, only a few of those who entered the Ancient Beast Mountain range managed to return.
