Chapter 261: Refining Two Supreme Treasures
Chapter 261: Refining Two Supreme Treasures
"Your descendant 'Gu Yang' has received the legacy of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, and the distribution of a large amount of resources has greatly increased the foundation of the Divine Martial Dynasty!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Yang' has comprehended the Nine Heavens Scripture, significantly enhancing his strength!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Yang' has comprehended the Nine Heavens Scripture, greatly improving his strength!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Yang' has consumed celestial materials, slightly enhancing his cultivation!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' has been attacked by demons 66471!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' has been attacked by demons 36412!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu' has suffered severe injuries, but fortunately, with the help of a remnant soul of a Grand Sage, he managed to escape!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Xiu'..."
"Your descendant 'Gu Xuan' has consumed celestial materials in a secret realm, enhancing his cultivation!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Xuan' has been attacked by cultivators 355!"
"Your descendant 'Gu Xuan' has suppressed a third-level Divine Transformation Realm cultivator with his peak Great Master cultivation, shocking all around!"
"Your descendant..."
...
Gu Qingfeng emerged from the spirit vein at Nine Sun Mountain and returned to the Gu Family Manor. He then, as usual, glanced at the information panel.
Regarding his descendants.
There were no significant changes.
After all, Gu Qingfeng's expedition to destroy an Ancient Wasteland Holy Land did not take much time. A few days were not enough to bring about major changes.
However—
Gu Xiu's situation remained as difficult as ever.
From the frequency of demon attacks, it was evident that he was likely caught in a large-scale demon siege.
Unfortunately—
The Demon Realm was not within the Ancient Desolate Realm. Without finding the true entrance to the Demon Realm, Gu Qingfeng had no way to enter.
"Nine Heavens Scripture!"
"Yang'er's comprehension is indeed remarkable. He has already grasped some aspects of this Sage King-level cultivation technique so quickly!"
Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly.
The Nine Heavens Scripture was one of his greatest gains from the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land. The other thing that could rival the Nine Heavens Scripture was the Heavenly Wasteland Seal.
The former was a Sage King-level cultivation technique, while the latter was a Sage King-level treasure.
The Nirvana Dao Scripture was already powerful. If cultivated to its peak, it could reach the pinnacle of the Grand Sage realm.
However—
Compared to the Nine Heavens Scripture.
The Nirvana Dao Scripture still fell short.
Even if the Nine Heavens Scripture were cultivated to its peak, it could only barely reach the Sage King realm, not the Ninth Level Sage King realm. But any cultivation technique involving the Sage King realm was not comparable to Grand Sage cultivation techniques.
However—
What Gu Qingfeng truly cared about now was not the Nine Heavens Scripture, but another cultivation technique.
The Heavenly Vein True Scripture!!
This was a cultivation technique originally obtained by Gu Yang, which later fell into Gu Qingfeng's hands.
All along—
Gu Qingfeng had not understood much about the Heavenly Vein True Scripture. Despite having condensed two heavenly veins, he had not truly grasped much of its essence.
In the battle against the Profound Feather Great Sage, Gu Qingfeng's final strike that killed the opponent was not just powered by the Ancient Immortal Body, but also by the strength of the two heavenly veins.
This allowed him to slay the Profound Feather Great Sage.
From this battle—
Gu Qingfeng had a clear understanding of his current strength.
Half-Saint cultivation.
His true strength was roughly at the threshold of the Grand Sage realm.
But if he utilized the two heavenly veins, he could directly match the strength of a Grand Sage.
The Profound Feather Great Sage was only a beginner in the Grand Sage realm, unlike the Heavenly Phoenix Great Sage and the Grand Sage of the Imperial Realm, who were seasoned veterans at the Ninth Level Grand Sage realm.
If it were a Ninth Level Grand Sage, Gu Qingfeng would have to turn and run.
Therefore—
The two heavenly veins were already so powerful.
One day—
If he could truly condense all nine heavenly veins, Gu Qingfeng suspected that even at the Half-Saint realm, he could slay a Sage King or even stronger beings.
"But the Heavenly Vein True Scripture is difficult to cultivate. To condense a third heavenly vein through self-cultivation and comprehension would take an unknown amount of time."
"As for using enhancement points to break through, the third level of the Heavenly Vein True Scripture requires a full ten thousand enhancement points..."
Gu Qingfeng pondered.
There was no way to improve the Heavenly Vein True Scripture for now, but if he had enough enhancement points in the future, he could enhance it.
Even if he couldn't condense all nine heavenly veins, just adding one or two more would significantly boost his strength.
Of course—
Compared to any cultivation technique or supreme art, the realm was the true first priority.
As long as the realm was high enough, all problems could be solved.
Just like this time.
If Gu Qingfeng were not a half-Sage but a Grand Sage, or even a Sage King, there would be no need to use any trump cards. A single palm strike would suffice to erase the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land.
Therefore.
Cultivation realm is the primary factor.
However, if the realm cannot be improved, then the Heavenly Vein True Scripture should be the first target for enhancement.
Then.
Gu Qingfeng took out the Divine Emperor Cauldron. This supreme treasure trembled, emitting waves as if two powerful beings were continuously trying to break free from the cauldron.
"Fancy trying to turn the tide after falling into my hands? Dream on!"
Gu Qingfeng sneered disdainfully and immediately channeled his blood and qi into the Divine Emperor Cauldron, fully activating the power of the Grand Sage weapon. A heavy pressure descended, instantly silencing the previously trembling cauldron.
Immediately after.
With a mental command, Gu Qingfeng summoned a bloodstained bronze war spear.
The moment the God-Slaying Spear broke free from the Divine Emperor Cauldron's restraint, a terrifying killing force erupted. Cold light tore through space, seemingly intent on annihilating Gu Qingfeng on the spot.
However, he was well-prepared. As the God-Slaying Spear's attack approached, he pressed it down with a single palm.
"When the Profound Feather Great Sage was alive, you couldn't cause much trouble. Now that the Great Sage has perished, do you think an unclaimed Grand Sage weapon can rebel against me?!"
"Submit to me, and one day, you will have the chance to taste the blood of a Great Emperor!"
Gu Qingfeng said, suppressing the God-Slaying Spear with his bare hands.
However, the supreme treasure continued to tremble, showing no signs of submission.
Seeing this, Gu Qingfeng was not surprised.
After all, it was impossible to make a Grand Sage weapon submit with just a few words.
Therefore.
Seeing the God-Slaying Spear's resistance, Gu Qingfeng directly used his mental power to strike the Grand Sage weapon, causing the bronze war spear to tremble violently, with a defiant will trying to resist.
In response, Gu Qingfeng's expression turned cold, and he continued to suppress it with his mental power.
What could an unclaimed Grand Sage weapon do?
The God-Slaying Spear, which had accumulated boundless killing intent over countless years, now erupted with all its might. Numerous ancient scenes appeared one by one in Gu Qingfeng's mind.
These were the experiences of the past wielders of the God-Slaying Spear.
The accumulated memories over a long time were naturally unbearable for ordinary cultivators.
This was a significant challenge when trying to forcefully suppress and refine a supreme treasure.
However, such a memory impact was useless against Gu Qingfeng.
After all, he had cultivated using enhancement points. If one were to be precise, the time he truly spent cultivating to this realm was far longer than the memories the God-Slaying Spear had experienced.
Therefore.
Such fragments of memory could not shake Gu Qingfeng in the slightest.
After a long while.
The God-Slaying Spear's resistance gradually weakened.
In the end.
Gu Qingfeng forcibly imprinted his divine soul mark on the supreme treasure.
The moment the divine soul mark fused with the God-Slaying Spear, all the killing intent vanished, and a close connection was formed between them.
"Truly a Grand Sage weapon. Such an offensive supreme treasure, when it comes to battle, can even outshine the Divine Emperor Cauldron by a margin!"
Gu Qingfeng felt the power of the God-Slaying Spear and showed a satisfied expression.
This did not mean that the God-Slaying Spear was more powerful than the Divine Emperor Cauldron. Each supreme treasure had its own advantages.
The Divine Emperor Cauldron, for instance, was a supreme treasure that combined suppression and offense. Inside the cauldron was a world of its own, and any Grand Sage weapon that fell into it was destined to be trapped, even a Sovereign Weapon could be temporarily suppressed.
In contrast.
The God-Slaying Spear lacked these functions.
This supreme treasure was a true offensive treasure, with only one purpose: to kill.
Therefore.
If we were to solely compare their battle functions, the God-Slaying Spear would be slightly stronger.
Moreover.
Gu Qingfeng discovered a unique characteristic of the God-Slaying Spear.
It could grow through killing.
If this supreme treasure could slay enough living beings, it might one day break through the constraints of a Grand Sage weapon and ascend to a Sovereign Weapon.
However, achieving a Sovereign Weapon was by no means an easy task.
Nevertheless, there was always a possibility of a breakthrough and transformation.
Next.
It was the Heavenly Wasteland Seal.
The moment Gu Qingfeng took out this Sovereign Weapon, a terrifying holy aura spread out, a vast force sweeping through the heavens and the earth.
Seeing this, Gu Qingfeng's expression tightened, and his mental power erupted, forcefully suppressing the Heavenly Wasteland Seal.
Unlike the forced refinement of the God-Slaying Spear, Gu Qingfeng held nothing back this time.
The power of a Sovereign Weapon.
Was far beyond what a Grand Sage weapon could match.
The strength contained within this supreme treasure left Gu Qingfeng somewhat awestruck.
Time slowly passed.
In the blink of an eye.
Several days had gone by.
Gradually, the resistance from the Heavenly Wasteland Seal weakened, and Gu Qingfeng successfully imprinted his divine soul mark upon it.
With this.
The Sovereign Weapon of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land now belonged to Gu Qingfeng.
After being refined, the Heavenly Wasteland Seal no longer emitted its terrifying aura. It transformed into a palm-sized seal, resting quietly in Gu Qingfeng's palm.
This seal appeared plain and unadorned, yet the dao rhythms flowed within it, exuding an extraordinary pressure.
"Heavenly Wasteland Seal!"
"Once upon a time, the Nine Heavens Sage King refined this supreme treasure using a celestial body as its foundation!"
"Upon activation, the Heavenly Wasteland Seal descends like a celestial body, instantly killing any being below the Sage King realm, with few able to resist it—"
After refining the Heavenly Wasteland Seal, Gu Qingfeng finally understood the origin of this supreme treasure.
Using a celestial body as the foundation and refining it into the Heavenly Wasteland Seal—such skill left Gu Qingfeng in awe.
Outside the Ancient Desolate Realm.
Lies the Chaotic Void.
Celestial bodies are products of the Chaotic Void.
The weight of each celestial body is beyond what ordinary mortals can imagine. Even a Half-Sage would find it difficult to move one, let alone refine it into a supreme treasure.
Moreover.
Not everyone has the qualifications to enter the Chaotic Void.
It is evident.
How terrifying Sage King-level cultivators are.
Such beings can not only enter the Chaotic Void but can also directly capture a celestial body and refine it into the Heavenly Wasteland Seal.
"Wait a moment!"
"Strictly speaking, the Demon Realm and the Ancient Desolate Realm are within the same Chaotic Void. If my cultivation is sufficient one day, perhaps I can directly traverse the Chaotic Void to find the Demon Realm!"
"However, this also presents a problem. The Chaotic Void is vast and boundless. Finding the Demon Realm within such vastness will not be easy!"
Gu Qingfeng's expression shifted, but he did not abandon this idea.
However, before that.
His Half-Sage cultivation was still too weak.
The Chaotic Void is full of unknowns.
Gu Qingfeng naturally would not be careless.
At the Half-Sage realm, his cultivation is still far from sufficient.
If there is an opportunity.
He must at least achieve true enlightenment and become a Sage.
Subsequently.
Gu Qingfeng looked at his attribute panel.
...
Name: Gu Qingfeng
Age: 56/6000
Realm: Ninth Level Dao Palace Realm
Martial Arts: Heavenly Vein True Scripture (2nd Level), Heavenly Blade (Perfected), Vast Wilderness Fist Scripture (Perfected), Divine Sun Scripture (Perfected), Ancient Wasteland Sky Blade (Perfected), Purple Extreme Dao Canon (Perfected), Departing Wind True Scripture (Not Entered), Nirvana Dao Scripture (Grandmaster Level 2nd Level), Heavenly Phoenix Divine Technique (Not Entered), Nine Heavens Scripture (Not Entered)
Enhancement Points: 72
...
Currently, there were no significant changes in the attribute panel, except for the addition of the Nine Heavens Scripture.
As a Sage King-level cultivation technique, Gu Qingfeng naturally could not miss it.
Unlike the Nirvana Dao Scripture, the Nine Heavens Scripture had no special requirements. As long as one's talent was sufficient, they could cultivate this technique.
Therefore.
Before passing the Nine Heavens Scripture to Gu Yang, Gu Qingfeng had already begun to study this cultivation technique.
Next.
Gu Qingfeng planned to use his talent to try cultivating the Nine Heavens Scripture. He did not expect to reach an extremely high level, but it would at least save him some enhancement points.
When he had enough enhancement points later, Gu Qingfeng could rely on the Nine Heavens Scripture to directly break through to the Sage realm and even higher, the Grand Sage and Sage King realms.
However—
Gu Qingfeng did not immediately enter seclusion but instead provided guidance on cultivation to the disciples of the Gu Family Manor.
Currently, although the Gu Family Manor no longer randomly accepts disciples, there were still many disciples within.
Usually.
These disciples were guided by Gu Peng, and Gu Qingfeng rarely appeared.
Gu Qingfeng now realized that as the head of the Gu Family Manor, he rarely showed himself to these disciples, which was somewhat inappropriate.
Taking advantage of the recent battle, Gu Qingfeng needed some relaxation.
Cultivation is always about balance.
Therefore.
Gu Qingfeng took this opportunity to check the progress of the current disciples of the Gu Family Manor.
On the other side.
In the imperial court.
Numerous South Region forces, led by the Zhou Family, were now collectively meeting with Gu Yang.
