Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Now that you are striving for immortality, I grant you this opportunity, hoping you can go further within the Heavenly Venerate Realm and one day serve the Gu Family and the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty!"

After he spoke.

Gu Qingfeng flicked his fingers.

A storage ring fell in front of Gu Fenghao.

The ring contained fifty thousand low-grade Dao Immortal Stones.

After rewarding various parties, Gu Qingfeng was left with few low-grade Dao Immortal Stones in his possession. Upon seeing Gu Fenghao, he bestowed them all upon him.

After all, as the fourth generation descendant of the Gu Family, he had a rather close relationship with Gu Qingfeng.

Moreover, countless generations have passed over millions of years, with most early descendants of the Gu Family having fallen or entered the Life Ancient City.

Until now, only a few living descendants of the Gu Family are still active in the world.

Therefore.

Gu Qingfeng was not stingy, granting Gu Fenghao some opportunities.

He wished for this descendant to go further.

Upon hearing this, Gu Fenghao expressed gratitude: "Thank you, ancestor, for the blessing. I will undoubtedly sacrifice everything for the Gu Family and the Immortal Dynasty!"

"Go now, cultivate well. The Heavenly Venerate Realm is merely a path to immortality. Even though you are already striving for immortality, such cultivation is still insignificant in the face of truly supreme powerhouses.

But with endless longevity, you have unlimited opportunities.

The blood flowing within you belongs to the Gu Family, and Gu Family members are destined not to be mediocre. I hope you won't disappoint me!"

"I understand!"

Gu Fenghao said solemnly.

Then.

Gu Qingfeng waved his hand to dismiss him.

Meeting Gu Fenghao.

Fulfilled some of his aspirations.

As it turned out.

To be able to break through the constraints of the Life Ancient City and strive for immortality in adversity does indeed show some foundation.

From Gu Fenghao, Gu Qingfeng could see that his foundation was solid and steady, even having just broken into the Heavenly Venerate Realm a few thousand years ago, there was not the slightest hint of vanity in his cultivation.

Compared to some new Heavenly Venerates who broke through tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, he was not lacking by any measure.

...

Elsewhere.

Gu Fenghao departed.

Returning to his Immortal Mansion, he took out the storage ring gifted by Gu Qingfeng, and as his Divine Thought entered it, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"These are Dao Immortal Stones!?"

Gu Fenghao looked at the tens of thousands of Immortal Stones filled with mysterious, infinite Dao Rhythm, his breath slowing slightly.

Such Immortal Stones.

He also had the fortune to obtain a few.

When he broke into the Heavenly Venerate Realm, Gu Yang had gifted a hundred pieces of Dao Immortal Stones to help him solidify his cultivation foundation.

Gu Fenghao knew well the miraculous uses of Dao Immortal Stones.

It was thanks to those hundred low-grade Dao Immortal Stones that he could solidify his cultivation in the Heavenly Venerate Realm within just a few thousand years, his progress not at all inferior to some new Heavenly Venerates who broke through tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.

Unfortunately.

The hundred Dao Immortal Stones had long been used up.

Gu Fenghao understood that such Supreme Treasures were not easy to acquire, so he suppressed the desire to seek other Dao Immortal Stones.

Yet unexpectedly.

Such rare Supreme Treasures.

Gu Qingfeng now directly granted him fifty thousand.

Fifty thousand low-grade Dao Immortal Stones!

What kind of concept is this.

With these Dao Immortal Stones, Gu Fenghao was confident he would be able to reach the Two Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm within millions of years.

Even if he couldn't break through to the Second Tribulation Level, reaching the Peak of One Tribulation would certainly be achievable.

In this way.

Among the many Heavenly Venerates, his strength would no longer be at the lower end.

Despite the multitude of Heavenly Venerates in the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty, the number truly able to reach the Second Tribulation Level has significantly decreased.

Heavenly Venerate Realm.

Most stop at the One Tribulation Level.

It's difficult.

Cultivating in the Heavenly Venerate Realm is extremely challenging.

The time since the founding of the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty is less than five million years. Although several Heavenly Venerates have emerged, most are new Heavenly Venerates, and only a few can advance further.

Now, thanks to the opportunity with the Dao Immortal Stones, Gu Fenghao was fully confident of rising above others.

Thinking of this.

His heart grew increasingly grateful and respectful towards Gu Qingfeng.

This ancestor might be elusive normally, but he holds these descendants in high regard.

If not.

He wouldn't have directly bestowed such an opportunity.

Immediately.

Gu Fenghao went into seclusion.

Just as Gu Qingfeng had said, breaking through to the Heavenly Venerate Realm is merely a new starting point, amidst ordinary cultivators, a Heavenly Venerate is supreme, but facing those supreme powerhouses, an ordinary Heavenly Venerate is merely ordinary.

Now, with the many Dao Immortal Stones in hand, Gu Fenghao naturally wouldn't waste any extra time, he could set aside everything, focusing first on raising his own cultivation.

...

In the Shuoyang Immortal Domain, within an Immortal Mansion, Luo Tian, who was initially in seclusion, abruptly opened his eyes, suddenly noticing a figure before him.

His expression first froze, then hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Your servant greets the Emperor, unaware of Your Majesty's presence, forgive your servant's failure to properly welcome you!"

Seeing him, Gu Qingfeng chuckled: "Enough, there's no need for such formalities before me. I ask you, what is the current situation of the Dao Immortal Ore?"

Upon hearing.

Luo Tian straightened himself, respectfully saying: "In the past twenty thousand years, your servant has been fully dedicated to extracting the Dao Immortal Ore. Up to now, there are one hundred thousand upper-grade Dao Immortal Stones, five hundred and thirty thousand middle-grade Dao Immortal Stones, and one million six hundred twenty thousand low-grade Dao Immortal Stones!"

To this.

Gu Qingfeng nodded.

The upper-grade Dao Immortal Ore doesn't yield all upper-grade stones; many are middle-grade or low-grade.

These other quality Dao Immortal Stones comprise the majority of the Immortal Ore's total output.

Yet even so, the importance of the upper-grade Dao Immortal Ore is indisputable.

Because regardless of the upper-grade Dao Immortal Stones, even just the middle-grade and low-grade ones are strategic resources crucial for any faction.

Even the least, low-grade Dao Immortal Stones are rare treasures for Heavenly Venerates below Six Tribulations.

As seen now.

In twenty thousand years, over a million low-grade Dao Immortal Stones have been extracted, if all were used solely on a Great Emperor, it could potentially yield fifty to sixty Heavenly Venerates striving for immortality.

Of course.

These new Heavenly Venerates are almost at the lower end within the Heavenly Venerate Realm.

Against ordinary powers, fifty to sixty Longevity Heavenly Venerates are impressive, but for truly supreme forces, fifty to sixty One Tribulation Heavenly Venerates are hardly different from cannon fodder.

The only difference might be these cannon fodders are slightly stronger.

Instead of producing fifty to sixty new Heavenly Venerates, it might be better to directly create some Second Tier, or even Three Tribulation Heavenly Venerables.

Doing so.

Though the quantity won't be impressive, the quality will certainly excel.

This.

Is merely the effect of low-grade Dao Immortal Stones.

The implications of middle-grade and upper-grade Dao Immortal Stones needn't be reiterated.

"In just twenty thousand years, such a substantial amount of Dao Immortal Stones has been extracted, no wonder the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect was willing to do anything to seize the Shuoyang Immortal Domain.

With such Dao Immortal Ore, given time, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's strength could at least multiply several times!"

Gu Qingfeng's face expressed his sentiments.

Much less talk of those upper-grade Dao Immortal Stones, just the boost in strength if Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen could break through his Six Tribulations barrier and venture into the Seven Tribulations to rise as a Great Heavenly Venerable.

But unfortunately.

The Xuanxiao Immortal Sect encountered the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty, and their plans were doomed.

Certainly.

It was the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty that discovered the secrets of Shuoyang Immortal Domain.

Otherwise.

It's possible the others might have succeeded.

But the facts have happened, and there's no "what if."

Now that the Dao Immortal Ore is in the hands of the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty, that's sufficient.

If this Dao Immortal Ore opportunity is seized, Gu Qingfeng is confident of significantly boosting the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty's strength in a short time.

At that point, even when faced with the Chaos Holy Land, there would be more confidence and assurance.
