BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM-Chapter 558: Mid Two-Star Dou Saint!

Chapter 558: Mid Two-Star Dou Saint!

"So that’s how it is!" Queen Medusa nodded, half-understanding after hearing Gu He's explanation.

After their conversation, the confidence that had just ignited in Queen Medusa's heart was once again extinguished. If Gu He was already beyond the Dou Venerate realm, and that man had been even stronger than Gu He, then he must have already stepped into one of those legendary realms.

Such an existence could still easily destroy her with a wave of the hand, even now that she had reached Four-Star Dou Venerate.

Previously, Liu Ling had chosen to help the Snake-People tribe migrate to the Magic Beast Mountain Range. This act had greatly improved the relationship between Liu Ling and the Snake-People, and it also eased tensions between the Jia Ma Empire and the tribe. The two sides were no longer hostile as they had been in the past.

Because of this, Queen Medusa no longer harbored much hatred in her heart. Now, what she truly cared about was how to lead her tribe toward a better life—and she still longed for the day when she could become the legendary Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.

“Cai Lin, after passing my energy to you this time, it may be years before I return again. These pills will help with your daily cultivation.”

As he spoke, Gu He took out ten jade bottles from his system space and handed them to Queen Medusa.

Inside those ten bottles were seven tier-7 pills and three tier-8 pills. However, the tier-8 pills were products from the rebate system and could not be used to gain further returns. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

"Thank you, Master."

Queen Medusa did not refuse. She first bowed deeply to Gu He, then extended her fair hand and accepted the ten bottles.

As soon as she received them, the system’s notification echoed in Gu He’s mind.

"[Ding! Detected that the host has gifted seven types of pills to the seventh disciple, Queen Medusa. You have two rebate chances remaining this month. Please make your selection.]"

Gu He paid little attention to the prompt and casually chose two of the pills.

Moments later, two more notifications sounded in his mind, informing him that he had received one tier-9 treasure pill and ten thousand tier-7 pills.

Even with such a massive amount of resources, Gu He no longer felt anything. The pills returned to him by the system were like rice or wheat to an ordinary family—abundant and routine.

"Master, where do you usually stay? If I ever have the chance, can I come find you?" After putting away the pills, Queen Medusa looked at Gu He with hopeful eyes.

Gu He replied, "The place where I reside is extremely, extremely far from here. When you reach the Saint realm, I’ll take you there."

"Alright."

Queen Medusa never disobeyed Gu He. Though she felt reluctant, she still nodded in agreement.

The Saint realm was still a distant goal for Queen Medusa. Though she had just broken through from peak Dou Sect to Four-Star Dou Venerate after receiving Gu He’s energy, leaping over many stages in the process, she believed this rapid advancement was only possible because of the vast gap between her and Gu He.

As her strength increased, the energy required to advance further would become immeasurable. At that point, Gu He couldn’t possibly lower his level to assist her again. And even if he could, she would never accept it.

"I’ll be going now. Choose your path wisely."

After saying that, Gu He tore open space and vanished from the Medusa Temple. The moment he disappeared, the seal within the temple also lifted.

"Master..."

Queen Medusa’s gaze lingered on the spot where Gu He had vanished.

Moments later, an elderly woman appeared at the entrance of the temple.

The one who had arrived was none other than the Grand Elder of the Snake-People Tribe.

"This aura… Her Majesty the Queen has truly broken through to Dou Venerate!"

"Congratulations to Her Majesty on breaking through to the Dou Venerate realm!"

Upon reaching the entrance of the Medusa Temple and sensing the powerful aura emanating from within, the Grand Elder was overwhelmed with emotion and immediately knelt to the ground.

Seeing this, Queen Medusa quickly said, "Grand Elder, what are you doing? Please, rise!"

"I’m just too happy, too excited… Your Majesty, to break through to Dou Venerate at such a young age, you now possess a lifespan of a thousand years. Our Snake-People Tribe will flourish for a long time to come! And if one day you go even further and reach the legendary Saint realm..." the Grand Elder said excitedly as she stood up again.

"There will be a day when I reach the Saint realm," Queen Medusa murmured softly.

After taking one last look at everything inside the temple, Queen Medusa left the Medusa Temple, taking the Grand Elder and the three unconscious elders with her as they headed toward the new Snake-People settlement in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

There, a brand-new Medusa Temple had already been established.

...

Meanwhile, after leaving the Medusa Temple, Gu He opened a portal in the Tagor Desert and used the Grand Spatial Displacement Technique to travel to a distant location, where he once again entered secluded cultivation.

This time, after spending three to four days absorbing the thirty years of cultivation returned from his transmission to Queen Medusa, Gu He successfully advanced to the Two-Star Dou Saint level, even reaching the mid-stage of Two-Star Dou Saint.

With his current strength at mid Two-Star Dou Saint, if he were to encounter the Three Great Dragon Kings again, he wouldn't even need Qingshan’s help—he could handle them on his own. Even against an ordinary Five-Star Dou Saint expert, he would still be able to put up a solid fight.

However, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, Huang Tian, was no ordinary Five-Star Dou Saint. His strength far surpassed even Hun Miesheng, the Hall Master of the Hall of Souls.

To the outside world, Hun Miesheng was believed to be at the peak of Four-Star Dou Saint. But Gu He knew that this was just a façade due to the pact among the great imperial clans.

The agreement between the major imperial clans was that those with cultivation at Five-Star Dou Saint or higher were not to act lightly.

Hun Miesheng's true strength was actually at early Five-Star Dou Saint, whereas Huang Tian of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan had reached the terrifying level of late Five-Star Dou Saint. Combined with his race’s powerful body and unmatched speed, his combat power was considered the pinnacle of the Five-Star Dou Saint tier.

Of course, if Gu He were to reach Five-Star Dou Saint himself, then Huang Tian’s so-called pinnacle would not even be worth calling the floor in Gu He's eyes.
