Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!-Chapter 375 - 265 Great Saint’s Divine Power_2

only required time.

Even if the higher a cultivator’s level, the lower the probability of leaving offspring,

the problem is, they live long enough!

A Great Grandmaster could live for four thousand years, and those in the Divine Transformation Realm could even live for five thousand years. Even if the probability is low, over thousands of years, they would still be able to leave some descendants.

Thus,

Gu Qingfeng was not particularly in a hurry.

Afterward,

he came out of seclusion.

Following his seclusion,

Gu Qingfeng summoned Gu Peng.

“Subordinate pays respects to the manor master!”

Gu Peng greeted with a respectful expression.

Gu Qingfeng’s gaze fell upon him, and naturally, he could see that Gu Peng had broken through the limits of the Great Grandmaster and stepped into the Divine Transformation Realm.

“Not bad, you’ve already broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm so quickly!”

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly.

The Divine Transformation Realm wasn’t much in the Ancient Desolate World, but in the territory of the Nine States, the local cultivators who managed to break through to this realm were extremely few in number.

With a humble face, Gu Peng said, “If it weren’t for the manor master granting me the opportunity, how would I have had the chance to make a breakthrough!”

“I have been in seclusion for a while, has anything happened in the Nine States?”

Gu Qingfeng didn’t elaborate on the cultivation matter but changed the topic.

Hearing this,

Gu Peng’s expression remained unchanged as he reported truthfully, “A while ago, Wuzhou experienced a drought. The commander of the Heavenly Patrol Guard from Nanyue Mountain was personally ordered to investigate in Wuzhou and discovered the source of this drought was caused by an Evil Spirit.

However, it’s rumored that the Evil Spirit’s power is extremely terrifying, causing heavy losses to the Heavenly Patrol Guard, with even the commander from Nanyue Mountain suffering severe injuries at the hands of the Evil Spirit.”

“Later, this news reached the court, and Your Majesty was enraged, commanding Shi Zhen to take a treasured artifact to Wuzhou in the hopes of suppressing the Evil Spirit.”

“Unfortunately, the battle did not go well, and currently, both sides are at a stalemate with no significant news coming out!”

Gu Peng directly reported the most significant occurrence during this period.

“Evil Spirit!”

Gu Qingfeng thought of the information he saw earlier; an Evil Spirit appearing in Wuzhou wasn’t unexpected.

However,

the treasured artifact mentioned by Shi Zhen piqued his curiosity.

“What is this treasured artifact you speak of?”

“The Ten Thousand Soul Banner!”

Gu Peng stated gravely.

The Ten Thousand Soul Banner!

Gu Qingfeng’s expression shifted.

If even deploying the Ten Thousand Soul Banner couldn’t suppress that Evil Spirit, that really was something to ponder over.

After all, Gu Qingfeng knew all too well the might of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

With its birth of strange beings, as long as it wasn’t a Saint taking action, there was basically no big problem.

But now,

even the Ten Thousand Soul Banner couldn’t handle an Evil Spirit.

In other words,

the strength of this Evil Spirit was at least at the Half-Saint stage, or perhaps even stepping into the Saint Level.

“At least a Half-Saint Realm Evil Spirit, this is indeed quite extraordinary!”

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

Gu Qingfeng’s eyes shimmered with a sharp gleam.

This should be the strongest Evil Spirit to emerge thus far.

Subsequently,

Gu Qingfeng let Gu Peng leave.

Although the Evil Spirit in Wuzhou was powerful, Gu Qingfeng wasn’t eager to take action. After all, he had already come out of seclusion, and if Gu Yang really needed him to take action, the other party would send someone to request his help.

On the contrary,

Gu Qingfeng was also happy to have some leisure time.

However,

on the second day after Gu Qingfeng had emerged from seclusion, Gu Yang changed into casual clothes and came over.

“Father!”

“You’ve arrived.”

Gu Qingfeng picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and relaxed.

Gu Yang gave a wry smile, “Father seems relaxed, but your son is now quite troubled. The Evil Spirit in Wuzhou still requires father’s personal intervention!”

Gu Yang somewhat helplessly understood Gu Qingfeng’s leisure.

He also wanted to rely on his own power to resolve the Evil Spirit in Wuzhou.

But the problem was,

the Evil Spirit in Wuzhou was too strong.

So strong that it caught Gu Yang by surprise.

As soon as he knew that Gu Qingfeng had come out of seclusion, Gu Yang had come over immediately.

“The Ten Thousand Soul Banner I gave you is rarely matched by anyone other than a Saint. Is that Evil Spirit truly strong enough to reach such a level?”

Gu Qingfeng was also somewhat curious.

Gu Yang nodded, “The power of that Evil Spirit is something I’ve never seen before; the Evil Buddha on Nine Curves Road is nothing compared to it.”

“Moreover, this Evil Spirit seems to possess some kind of strange power, causing drought and barrenness wherever it goes, which is why the natural disaster started in Wuzhou.”

“A few days ago, Shi Zhen sent word that the Evil Spirit seems to be on the verge of a breakthrough. If we allow it to succeed, I’m afraid all of Wuzhou will be in catastrophe!”

“Now in the entire Divine Martial Dynasty, apart from you, father, I can’t think of anyone else who can solve this problem!”

Gu Yang was, indeed, extremely wary of the Evil Spirit in Wuzhou.

Shi Zhen could barely suppress the opponent with the power of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, but once the Evil Spirit breaks through and transforms, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner will most likely be unable to suppress it.

By that time,

it goes without saying how much danger a Saint-level Evil Spirit would bring.

“If that’s the case, then I shall make a trip to Wuzhou!”

“I too want to see what kind of Evil Spirit possesses such capabilities.”

Gu Qingfeng finished his tea in one gulp, and his figure then disappeared from the spot.

Watching Gu Qingfeng leave, Gu Yang felt a sense of relief in his heart.

With Gu Qingfeng taking action,

the Evil Spirit in Wuzhou would surely be no problem.

After all, however powerful the Evil Spirit’s strength might be, Gu Yang firmly believed that it couldn’t possibly be a match for Gu Qingfeng.

Unless,

it was an Evil Spirit at the level of the Great Saint Realm.

But the thing is,

if it were truly an Evil Spirit of the Great Saint Realm, not to mention Shenhe County, even Wuzhou and the other States by now would probably have been turned into hell.

So,

although the Evil Spirit of Shenhe County was strong, its strength was also limited.

With Gu Qingfeng taking action, there surely wouldn’t be any problems.

However,

although Gu Yang felt relieved, his expression remained grave.

Although the issue with the Evil Spirit in Wuzhou could be resolved, there are plenty of hidden dangers lurking unseen throughout the Nine States.

The appearance of the Evil Spirit

was in itself filled with oddity.

Now,

if a Saint-level Evil Spirit could appear in Shenhe County, who could guarantee that an even more powerful Evil Spirit wouldn’t be born in the future.

“The problem of the Evil Spirit must be solved at its roots; otherwise, it will always be an insurmountable hidden danger!”

Gu Yang muttered to himself.

He used to think that the appearance of Evil Spirits was somewhat similar to oddities, arising due to successive natural disasters and the severe casualties of the populace, with all kinds of grievances converging to form the Evil Spirit.

But now, with the Nine States enjoying good weather and smooth sailing, such a theory obviously doesn’t hold up.

Besides,

there are fundamental differences between Evil Spirits and oddities.

Such beings have undoubtedly mysterious origins.

—

In Wuzhou,

In Shenhe County,

black fog covered the sky and the sun, swallowing a radius of a hundred miles, and beyond the black fog, thirty-six thousand soldiers of the Heavenly Gang Army were stationed here.

The temperature around was much higher than in other places, with many soldiers sweating profusely, yet before the sweat could fall, it would be evaporated by the scorching heat.

It was only because the Heavenly Gang Army was extraordinary, having received an abundance of resources from the court for their cultivation, that every soldier, being at least in the Refining Organ Realm, could barely withstand such temperatures.

Otherwise,

ordinary soldiers would certainly not survive.
