"Ancient Country Lord, you have no other choice but to trust me now.
Other Immortal Kings won't help you at all. They're just waiting for you to die so they can divide up your Seven Star Ancient Country.
If you don't want your country to fall and your people to perish after your death, you have to take a chance."
Gu Qingfeng stared intently at Gu Ruochen, his eyes filled with an indescribable demonic aura, like a devil luring people into hell.
After they looked at each other for a moment, Gu Ruochen suddenly said, "Okay! I'll agree to your proposal! However..."
"However what?"
"However, I can only give you the Heaven - Shielding Umbrella after everything is done, because I still need it during my tribulation to become an Immortal King."
"Sure."
Gu Qingfeng smiled and readily agreed, not fearing at all that Gu Ruochen would go back on his word.
His such a quick agreement even made Gu Ruochen a little surprised.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll renege on my promise and not give you the Heaven - Shielding Umbrella after I become an Immortal King?"
Gu Qingfeng just gave a mysterious smile and said with certainty, "You won't."
The strong confidence in his words made Gu Ruochen's pupils constrict slightly.
Who on earth is this kid? Does he think he can fight against an Immortal King?
Or is he actually an Immortal King himself?
No, that's impossible.
Even an Immortal King can't help another Immortal King through the tribulation.
Could it be...
Gu Ruochen's pupils suddenly dilated in shock. He remembered some rumors, some rumors about beings above the Immortal Kings.
For a moment, he thought a lot. This young man, who was just an ordinary mortal, could easily crush Yuwen Xiong, who was at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, and could also help a Great Luo Golden Immortal through the tribulation...
After a moment of silence, Gu Ruochen stopped thinking about it. It didn't matter who Gu Qingfeng was. What mattered most was the Immortal King Tribulation!
If he couldn't survive it, everything would be over.
Actually, the reason why Gu Qingfeng had so much confidence when facing the quasi - Immortal King of the human race was entirely because of his family's support.
In his estimation, the terrifying Immortal King Tribulation would be enough to shatter all the sealing power of the Prison Demon Sword and release his family.
Based on his understanding of his family over the years, the family members in the Prison Demon Sword were definitely no weaker than Immortal Kings, and perhaps even stronger.
At least, they were far beyond what a newly - promoted Immortal King could compare with. This could be seen from the fact that they could absorb the great calamity.
So, the two reached an agreement and parted on good terms.
Gu Ruochen and Gu Qingfeng agreed to start the tribulation in three days.
Actually, his Immortal King Tribulation had already arrived, but because he wasn't confident, he had been suppressing it.
He planned to take three days to adjust and prepare some trump cards to face the Immortal King Tribulation.
Gu Qingfeng thought he was wasting time and delaying his reunion with his family, but he didn't say much because no one would want to entrust their life and death entirely to others.
While Gu Ruochen was making preparations, Gu Qingfeng returned to his residence and began to study the treasures he had just obtained.
At night.
He took out the Emperor's Flow Slurry. Looking at the golden liquid in the cup, the liquid glistened with a mysterious luster under the moonlight. Faintly, a strange whistling sound seemed to come from it.
Suddenly, Gu Qingfeng crushed the jade cup in his hand. With a cracking sound, the golden liquid rose up and turned into two golden threads, which directly entered his nostrils.
A refreshing and exotic fragrance spread in his nasal cavity.
Boom!
As soon as the Emperor's Flow Slurry entered his body, it exploded. A terrifying and mysterious power flowed through Gu Qingfeng's body, dyeing his body a layer of gold.
"What a powerful force," Gu Qingfeng murmured to himself. "No wonder it's a divine object that can give a mortal the physique of a Golden Immortal. This force can still push my physical body to a higher level."
He immediately began to refine the Emperor's Flow Slurry.
After one night.
Whoosh.
Gu Qingfeng slowly exhaled a breath. His eyes, which had been closed all night, opened, and the golden light on his body gradually faded.
"Is this physical strength beyond the limit of a Golden Immortal?"
But he didn't care too much. After all, his own cultivation was just illusory. Relying on his family's help to improve was the real deal.
Then, he took out the other treasures given by Gu Ruochen and began to swallow them. There was the Dust - Extinguishing Pill that could improve aptitude, the Sky - Reaching Creation Dew that could increase mana, and the Heavenly Heart Pill that could help understand the eternal Tao.
After swallowing and refining these pills one by one, Gu Qingfeng felt that his strength had increased a lot.
If his fight with Yuwen Xiong had pushed his strength to the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, then with the further increase in his physique and mana, he had surpassed the peak.
Moreover, with the help of the Heavenly Heart Pill, his understanding and control of the Star - Pole Law had become deeper.
Although the Heavenly Heart Pill was a treasure that could help understand the eternal Tao and increase the chance of breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, it didn't mean that it could only be taken when breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Taking it under normal circumstances could also increase the understanding of the eternal Tao, but no one would do so because it was too wasteful.
The only eternal Tao in Gu Qingfeng's body was the Star - Pole Tao, so naturally, his control over it became stronger.
The benefit of this was that he could control the Star - Pole Demon Fire more skillfully, and its power was even greater.
Even when facing a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he could pose a threat and even burn the opponent.
After taking the pills and natural treasures, Gu Qingfeng merged the Qiankun Sheji Map into his inner world to upgrade its rank.
Just like this, two days passed in a flash.
Before the third day arrived, Gu Ruochen appeared. However, this time, there was a hint of anxiety between his eyebrows.
"Friend Gu, let's go quickly. Find a secluded place and start the tribulation right away, or it will be too late."
Gu Qingfeng looked at the anxious Gu Ruochen and asked in confusion, "Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you suppress the Immortal King Tribulation anymore?"
Gu Ruochen shook his head. "There's no time to explain. Follow me quickly."
With that, he quickly formed hand seals with both hands. Suddenly, a stone door appeared in the void, engraved with the patterns of mountains and rivers and the country.
Gu Ruochen made a cut on his wrist with his hand. Immediately, a large wound appeared on his wrist, and scarlet blood gushed out and fell on the stone door.
Before long, the entire stone door was dyed red.
At the same time, the stone door opened with a bang.
"Hurry, Friend Gu."
With that, he took the lead and entered the stone door.
Gu Qingfeng didn't hesitate much. For the sake of his family, he dared to venture into any dangerous place.
Immediately, he also plunged into the stone door.
A sense of time - space separation emerged, and the scene in front of him changed rapidly, as if the stars were shifting.
After a moment, when Gu Qingfeng could see clearly again, he was shocked to find that he was in a brand - new world. Its area was no smaller than a great thousand world outside.
In this world, there was complete silence, as if there were no living beings at all.
There were only rows of tombs.
"This is the imperial mausoleum of my Seven Star Ancient Country. All the imperial descendants of past generations are buried here," Gu Ruochen explained beside him.
The imperial mausoleum!?
Even Gu Qingfeng, who was used to extravagance, thought it was incredibly luxurious.
Using a great thousand world as an imperial mausoleum?
Damn it, I should have asked for more.

"This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore."

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
