Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!-Chapter 453 - 305: The Downfall of the Guiyuan Dynasty_2

In that case, even if it can’t fully exhibit the power of the God Slaying Spear, I believe it shouldn’t be a problem to deal with an ordinary Saint!

But there’s one thing.

Chu Daoxuan didn’t say it out loud.

That is, essence blood is precious.

For cultivators, if they lose essence blood, it’s absolutely not easy to make up for it later.

However, whether it’s Chu Daoxuan or the people of the Tribute Institute, though they had some strange expressions, none of them objected.

After all, they joined the Tribute Institute and already received benefits from the court. Now it’s time to give back, it’s only natural to put in the effort.

Moreover.

If they truly assist the army in taking down the Guiyuan Dynasty.

They believe.

The court’s rewards would definitely not be lacking.

At that time.

No matter how much essence blood is consumed, if there are ample resources, making up for it won’t be a problem.

"If Institute Envoy Chu has such a thought, we might as well give it a try!"

Shi Zhen’s eyes lit up, he didn’t expect Chu Daoxuan to go to such lengths for Divine Martial.

Although the people coming this time from the Tribute Institute are not many, they have high cultivation.

Especially Chu Daoxuan.

For a strong figure like him in the Semi-Saint Realm, a drop of essence blood is worth tens or hundreds of thousands of ordinary soldiers.

If the strong of the Tribute Institute are willing to sacrifice essence blood, then truly activating the power of the God Slaying Spear is not impossible.

——

While the Divine Martial Dynasty is waging external wars, Gu Qingfeng has now fully recovered the primordial qi lost in the previous battle.

He exhaled a long breath.

Gu Qingfeng’s eyes shone like a knife.

"Finally recovered!"

Feeling the surging qi and blood in his body, Gu Qingfeng smiled.

At his level of cultivation, minor injuries can be healed in an instant, almost as if they never happened.

But if it’s an injury affecting his core, recovery wouldn’t be that easy.

Luckily.

Gu Qingfeng wasn’t seriously hurt.

The battle in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.

He fought the Star Imperial Bell with his body, gaining a comprehensive understanding of his own strength.

The Three Great Heavenly Veins fully activated.

In terms of strength.

Gu Qingfeng felt capable of matching Saint King level experts.

At the same time.

This kind of battle.

Made him even more adept at applying his strength.

Although he made no breakthroughs in cultivation, Gu Qingfeng’s strength has indeed improved somewhat.

"It seems that mere seclusion cultivation has its limits. Only through combat can a cultivator truly grasp their own power!"

"I have a solid foundation now, but too few battles. My full potential isn’t fully tapped!"

"In other words, at the Saint Nine Heavens level, I still have room for improvement——"

Speaking of which.

Since his cultivation improved, Gu Qingfeng rarely encountered evenly matched opponents.

In this End of Dharma Era, whenever he met a cultivator, Gu Qingfeng could easily kill them in an instant.

The gap between them.

Was like a chasm.

That’s why, when confronting the Star Imperial Bell directly, he didn’t use his Imperial Weapon right away, choosing to fight with his body instead.

Fighting a Quasi-Imperial Weapon is also a battle with the strong.

The benefits brought by such battles sometimes surpass years of seclusion cultivation.

In fact.

It’s exactly as Gu Qingfeng thought.

The battle in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.

Brought unprecedented gains for Gu Qingfeng.

Thinking about it.

Gu Qingfeng couldn’t help but turn his gaze to various forbidden zones.

"In this End of Dharma Era, many ancient beings are dormant. The only pressure might come from the ancient sites in these forbidden zones!" freewёbnoνel.com

Any forbidden zone.

Contains enormous dangers.

Some forbidden zones.

Can even make Great Emperors bleed.

Now.

Gu Qingfeng had the idea of making a journey to the forbidden zones.

But before that.

Gu Qingfeng glanced at his own cultivation, and didn’t depart immediately.

"With Saint Nine Heavens and over two thousand Upgrade Points, once it reaches five thousand Upgrade Points, I can break the Saint’s barrier and step into the Great Saint Realm.

In this way, I can ensure more safety when entering forbidden zones!"

Gu Qingfeng thought to himself.

Don’t think that the First Level of the Great Saint Realm is just one step away from Saint Nine Heavens.

But taking this step is the difference between heaven and earth.

Once stepping into the Great Saint Realm, Gu Qingfeng is confident that without using an Imperial Weapon, he can suppress the Star Imperial Bell with his absolute cultivation strength.

This.

Is the change brought by breaking through to the Great Saint Realm.

Given the current situation, Gu Qingfeng believes that it won’t take too long.

...

Time passed.

With the defeat of the Star Dynasty, the entire Nine States returned to peace once again.

But beyond the Nine States,

the war between the two great dynasties never ceased.

In the first year after the Star Dynasty’s defeat,

the Divine Martial Dynasty dispatched strong cultivators from the Tribute Institute to battle, joining forces to wield the God Slaying Spear and heavily injure Emperor Han of the Guiyuan Dynasty, completely opening the situation in Moonlight Prefecture.

Subsequently,

in the following three years,

the Guiyuan Dynasty suffered defeat after defeat.

By the end,

a grand dynasty was left with only the territory of one prefecture, and its downfall was imminent.

In Tianyuan Prefecture,

the capital of the Guiyuan Dynasty,

the current Emperor Han, compared to a few years ago, had already aged considerably, his temples graying, like an old man on the verge of death.

At this moment,

outside the capital,

the army besieged the city.

Emperor Han revealed a bitter smile.

"I never imagined that the Han family’s foundation of a hundred thousand years would ultimately be destroyed in my hands!"

Do I regret it?

Emperor Han asked himself with his hand on his heart.

In the past, he naturally did not.

But now,

Emperor Han deeply regretted it.

If he had known early on that the Divine Martial Dynasty would be so powerful, he would never have provoked them.

Or, at the moment of provoking the Divine Martial Dynasty, he would have poured the entire strength of the Guiyuan Dynasty to crush them completely, leaving no room for their growth.

If either of these could have been done,

the Guiyuan Dynasty wouldn’t be in its current state.

Alas,

it’s too late to say anything now.

After years of war,

the army of the Guiyuan Dynasty crumbled like a collapsing mountain,

and out of three hundred and seventy-three prefectures, most had fallen, leaving only Tianyuan Prefecture.

Even now, much of Tianyuan Prefecture’s territory had changed flags, with only the capital barely holding on.

Now, millions of soldiers surrounded the city.

As soon as the enemy gave the order,

the fate awaiting them would be the city’s fall and the death of its people.

At that moment,

suddenly there was a commotion in the army below. A cultivator rose into the air and met Emperor Han’s gaze.

"Emperor Han, the great momentum of the Guiyuan Dynasty is gone, if you open the city and surrender now, perhaps fewer will have to die!"

"Shi Zhen... I indeed underestimated your Divine Martial Dynasty!"

Looking at the cultivator before him, Emperor Han’s expression remained calm, neither angry nor murderous, as if facing an old friend.

"You are right, the great momentum of the Guiyuan Dynasty is gone!"

As these words were spoken,

the expressions of the other generals defending the city changed. Just as they were about to speak, they were stopped by Emperor Han raising his hand.

"Let me ask you, if I am willing to surrender, how will the Divine Martial Dynasty treat my courtiers?"

"Those willing to submit will be given a chance to live by the Divine Martial Dynasty. Those who resist, insisting on opposing the court, will face certain death!"

Shi Zhen spoke calmly.

His words

made Emperor Han nod slightly.

"Moreover, I have one last request."

"Please speak, Emperor Han!"

"The Han family bloodline must be preserved, even if it means becoming commoners in the future."

After hearing these words, Shi Zhen remained silent for a moment.

Then,

he spoke, "On this matter, I need to seek the Emperor’s permission!"

"Very well,"

Emperor Han nodded.

Immediately,

Shi Zhen did not hesitate and directly relayed the message back to the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Not long after,

the Communication Jade Token vibrated.

Shi Zhen said, "The Emperor decrees that if the Guiyuan Dynasty is willing to surrender, the Han family bloodline can be preserved, but they must reside in the capital permanently, and without an imperial decree, they cannot leave their residence by even a step!"

"After two thousand years, this decree will be lifted, and the Han family bloodline will regain their freedom!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Han naturally understood Gu Yang’s purpose in doing so.

A span of two thousand years was enough to change many things.

This answer was very satisfactory to Emperor Han.

"Good, tomorrow I will have the gates opened!"
