My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 462 : Invitation to God’s Reign Mountain
While others might not have known, the old monk certainly did. The moment Gu Lan released his aura, it was clear to the old monk that the one who had just attacked him was the handsome scholar standing before him. The fact that this man could break through his King Kung Divine Eye in one strike indicated that his cultivation had at least reached the later stage of Divine Realm Supreme.
Claiming that it was a lucky breakthrough was simply not believable!
Indeed, Confucian cultivators were known for their cunning, unlike the straightforward ways of the Buddhist sect.
"Junior Brother, do not let your mind be clouded by delusions!"
As the old monk, who had lost his sight, grew agitated, the abbot of Justice Virtue Temple placed a hand on his shoulder to calm him down.
"What a powerful presence! This man has just broken through and already possesses such strength; his future accomplishments will surely surpass mine."
The sect master of God's Reign Sect smiled even more brightly after witnessing Gu Lan reveal his cultivation. Making an alliance with a newly ascended Divine Realm powerhouse, especially one with such limitless potential, was advantageous for The 33rd Sky of Divine Realm as well. If possible, it might even allow Xiantian World to regain its former glory.
"Congratulations on your ascension to Divine Realm, Senior!"
"Congratulations!"
Under the overwhelming pressure of Gu Lan's aura, members of the various factions finally confirmed that Gu Lan was indeed the newly ascended Divine Realm cultivator, and they all bowed in his direction to express their congratulations. In that instant, thousands of cultivators paid their respects.
Even the Holy Sons and Saintesses of the top five clans in the Immortal Realm couldn't help but look at Gu Lan with envy.
Although they were extremely respected within their own clans, they still couldn't compare to a Divine Realm cultivator. In the Six Realms, only those who reached Divine Realm were considered true powerhouses. Even the most talented cultivators couldn't guarantee that they would break through to Divine Realm, as achieving this realm was the ultimate goal of their lives.
Only by becoming a Divine Realm cultivator could one roam freely across the Six Realms without worrying about their lifespan. Every Divine Realm powerhouse held unparalleled status within their respective factions. It was a common understanding in the Six Realms that upon encountering a Divine Realm cultivator, one must bow in respect.
In the vast The 33rd Sky of Divine Realm, which was home to the famous God's Reign Sect of the Xiantian World, there was only one person who had reached Divine Realm, the sect master himself. This alone illustrated how rare Divine Realm cultivators were.
"He looks so much like..."
As the sect master of God's Reign Sect gazed at Gu Lan, he suddenly recalled someone from his past—Snow Clan Divine King, who had also been as spirited and unparalleled as Gu Lan was now, tens of thousands of years ago. Unfortunately, fate had been unkind. Despite his greatness, the Snow Clan Divine King ultimately fell under the siege of the seven great Houses of the Immortal Realm.
With his death, the Snow Clan was wiped out, and Xiantian World was never able to regain its former glory.
"Would you be willing to visit God's Reign Sect? You've just entered Divine Realm, and there must be many things you're unsure of. Perhaps we could discuss them together and clear up some of your doubts."
"In that case, I thank you for your kindness."
Gu Lan cupped his hands in thanks and did not refuse the invitation. He then used his true energy to lift Chen Feng, who was still kneeling on the ground.
"You stay here and wait for my return. I have some questions for you."
After transmitting these instructions secretly to Chen Feng, Gu Lan also advised the disciples of Lanyan Royal School to return to their caves and focus on cultivating for the upcoming finals. Once he finished, Gu Lan handed a token to Li Xiong.
"Take this. With it, you can fully represent Lanyan Royal School in negotiations with other factions. Just remember one thing: regardless of the opponent's background, do not look down on them, nor should you be fearful. Lanyan Royal School will not provoke any faction, but it will not be afraid of any either. Can you do that?"
"I will not fail in my mission!"
After hearing Gu Lan's instructions, Li Xiong responded loudly, his voice echoing all around. The attitude of Lanyan Royal School was thus clearly conveyed to all the factions present. A few days ago, some factions had been trying to undermine Lanyan Royal School in secret, but now they were drenched in cold sweat.
Originally, Lanyan Royal School was just a school with some good results and no significant backing, but now that it had a Divine Realm powerhouse, it was beyond their reach to threaten. Not to mention, the attitude of the God's Reign Sect sect master towards Gu Lan clearly indicated that he was eager to form an alliance with Lanyan Royal School.
God's Reign Sect was a first-class force in the Xiantian World and held considerable influence in the Immortal Realm. With Lanyan Royal School following closely behind God's Reign Sect, its growth and development were just a matter of time.
Some were fearful, while others were delighted, particularly the Rulers of the Earthly Realm like Qin Huangmo, who had always maintained a good relationship with Gu Lan. Now, learning that Gu Lan had hidden his cultivation and ascended to Divine Realm, they were both shocked and overjoyed. Initially, the shock outweighed the joy, but now the joy had taken precedence.
Especially Qin Huangmo, whose mind was now solely focused on how to hold on tightly to Gu Lan's "big thigh."
"I just hope that Brother Gu, now a Divine Realm powerhouse, still sees me as his little brother. He probably does; I think Brother Gu is not the type to forget old friendships for personal gain. No matter what, I have to find a way to stay close to him.
The future development of Jianmu Earthly Realm might not depend on the final rankings of the Great Competition of All Clans, but rather on Brother Gu!"
"But I'm still a bit unsure... I should send a message to Honey and see what advice she has."
Feeling uneasy and uncertain, Qin Huangmo immediately thought of his Honey, who was far away in the Earthly Realm. When it came to such matters, his Honey had always been far more insightful than he was.
By this time, Gu Lan had already arrived at the highest point of The 33rd Sky of Divine Realm, God's Reign Mountain, at the invitation of the God's Reign Sect sect master. God's Reign Mountain was not where the sect's main gate was located, but rather where the sect master's personal cave residence was.
This was where he usually secluded himself in cultivation, paying little attention to worldly affairs. He hadn't even made any remarks about the Great Competition of All Clans. In his view, God's Reign Sect disciples could not achieve high rankings in the face of the seven great Houses of the Immortal Realm, no matter how hard they tried.
Having lived for so many years, the sect master of God's Reign Sect had long seen through everything. If not for someone in The 33rd Sky of Divine Realm, he might still be in seclusion.
"So young, yet possessing such cultivation—it's truly remarkable!"
As they walked together, the sect master of God's Reign Sect learned of Gu Lan's name and age. When he found out that Gu Lan was not even a hundred years old, waves of shock surged in his heart. A Divine Realm powerhouse under a hundred years old—he fully understood what that meant.
As a veteran Divine Realm powerhouse, he knew that Gu Lan's talent might allow him to ascend to the Main God Realm within a thousand years, and perhaps even reach the God Realm within ten thousand years.
This was something he dared not even dream of.
"It was just luck, a bit of good fortune," Gu Lan said humbly.

The sect master of God's Reign Sect shook his head. He knew that in the Six Realms, luck was equivalent to destiny, and destiny was part of one's strength.
"With your talent, your future achievements are limitless. Lanyan Royal School may be just starting out, but if you need any assistance, don't hesitate to ask!"
The sect master of God's Reign Sect was direct and sincere in his offer.
