Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 425 - 205: Advancing by Leaps and Bounds, Unmatched Fourth Grade

Chapter 425: Chapter 205: Advancing by Leaps and Bounds, Unmatched Fourth Grade

The flames of war have already begun to spread to Chuanbei Prefecture. The barbarians are fiercely aggressive, and it’s unclear how many reinforcements have arrived. The Jiang Family army is retreating step by step, and Chuannan Prefecture has already lost three counties.

Under the leadership of You Chen, Dragon Gate has entered Southern Sichuan on a grand scale to battle the barbarians.

Outside Chuanbei Prefecture.

A formation composed of Dragon Gate disciples is surrounded and killing a barbarian.

Just as they slayed the barbarian, they saw something seemingly speeding away in the distance.

"It’s General Wei!"

"The Sect Leader has returned!"

"Quickly return to welcome the Sect Leader."

Their speed certainly won’t be faster than General Wei’s.

Xu Guang returned to Dragon Gate and looked at Jiang Zi Yun, Gong Lingyun, and some familiar faces, a touch of emotion appeared on his face.

It really feels like a lifetime has passed.

"You’ve finally returned! I thought you were following the footsteps of the ancients, traveling thousands of miles to seek divine techniques."

Rong Jin joked with Xu Guang with a smile.

At first, he opposed Xu Guang becoming the Sect Leader, but later, after Xu Guang accomplished a few things, he found Xu Guang quite agreeable, and his relationship with Xu Guang became much closer.

"If I could gain divine techniques by walking thousands of miles, I would go right now."

Xu Guang said with a smile.

Rong Jin rolled his eyes.

"Today is a great occasion, worth celebrating, let’s have a big feast!"

That day, Dragon Gate Sect Leader Xu Guang returned, Dragon Gate celebrated, and Chuanbei Prefecture consumed a massive amount of alcohol in one night.

Late into the night.

Jiang Zi Yun leaned on Xu Guang’s shoulder, a faint smile on her face.

"Are you happy? Did you gain anything on this trip?"

She only knew Xu Guang seemed to have gone to the Ghostly Land, dealing with the barbarians there, but the specifics weren’t clear.

Xu Guang laughed.

"The gains were huge! I ascended Lanshan, and atop it was actually the palace of an Emperor!"

Jiang Zi Yun listened quietly as he spoke about the events in the Ghostly Land, hearing about Xu Guang’s thrilling journey.

"By the way, I remember you’re cultivating a Fire Attribute Technique, right?"

Jiang Zi Yun nodded, "The Jiang Family’s Heaven-Burning Four Transformations True Technique, although somewhat incomplete, is the strongest true skill of the Jiang Family aside from a few main branches."

"Cultivate well; when you break through to the Fourth Grade, I’ll give you a surprise."

In Hai Province, there is the Divine Power Fruit of True Sun Fire, and now that he has opened the Fire Gate, the Divine Power Fruit is useless to him, so he might as well save it for Jiang Zi Yun.

Jiang Zi Yun smiled faintly.

She also spoke about some events in Dragon Gate after his departure.

Liu Ruyan seemed to have taken managing Dragon Gate and Chuanbei Prefecture as her lifelong dedication, and within a few months, with the support of several Fourth-Grade Elders, she introduced several sect rules, now Dragon Gate’s development can be self-sufficient, and the internal income and expenditure are basically balanced.

She seems quite capable, establishing a series of systems to cope with the current world where demons continually appear and the impact of the barbarians.

Compared to the Ghostly Land, the outside world is indeed much safer.

Although demons have emerged, their growth is obviously not that fast, and over the past six months, the most harmful demon encountered in Chuanbei Prefecture was merely an Innate one.

Perhaps only in the forests, now demons stronger than Innate ones are emerging.

"By the way, Ji Yanran from Guanghan Hall also came last month, and brought some acquaintances from Chiyao County, I didn’t expect you to have the name Red Flame Ancestor."

Xu Guang suddenly remembered, he had promised to provide Golden Core to Guanghan Palace.

Listening to Jiang Zi Yun’s teasing tone, Xu Guang felt a bit awkward.

Being called an ancestor because of his old appearance wasn’t a big deal, but being called that privately by Jiang Zi Yun now was somewhat awkward.

Jiang Zi Yun glanced at him, "You only said you’d be gone for a few days, didn’t expect you’d be gone for so long."

...

The days passed quickly.

Xu Guang once again entered the routine of cultivating diligently at Dragon Gate, leveling up.

It is worth mentioning that under the leadership of Sect Leader Xu Fang, the entire Red Flame Sect of Chiyao County merged into Dragon Gate and was promptly integrated into the Tenth Tribulation Institute by Liu Ruyan.

These trivial matters, Xu Guang can hardly pay much attention to anymore.

Back in the quiet room under the waterfall, Xu Guang took out all the Celestial Registers obtained from slaying enemies before, beginning to enhance the Extreme Soul.

What the essence of a Celestial Register is, Xu Guang doesn’t know, but Celestial Registers are also auxiliary tools created by the Six Imperial Lords to perfect the Martial Dao, their effects are extraordinary, all sorts of blessings, comparable to divine techniques.

The only pity is that each person can only gain one blessing.

Once one gains a Celestial Register, more of them become useless.

That’s why Celestial Registers are relatively ubiquitous in the world.

However, Xu Guang can refine and absorb some special substances from the Celestial Registers, enhancing the effect of his Extreme Soul.

In the quiet room, Xu Guang sat cross-legged as each Celestial Register turned to ashes in his palm, completely disappearing, the golden glow on his Divine Soul became even more intense.

Everything seems to have fallen into tranquility.

The slaughter in the Ghostly Land seems to have completely drifted away.

Xu Guang focused every day on acquiring experience, pondering divine techniques, contacting the Void Realm, and refining Celestial Registers...

Time flew by.

A month passed quickly.

The outside world was in flux, You Chen invited Xu Guang out of the quiet room.

In the Leaping Dragon Tower’s assembly hall,

A pot of clear tea slowly emitted green smoke, the charcoal fire below was faintly red, the heat slowly spreading, radiating onto the faces of those sitting around.

Xu Guang sat at the head position, beside him were You Chen, Rong Jin, Gong Lingyun, and other Dragon Gate Fourth-Grade experts.

Sitting below were Liu Ruyan, Jiang Zi Yun, and the heads of the ten Tribulation Institutes.

Everyone’s faces were filled with seriousness.

The situation in Zouchuan Dao has become chaotic.

"After more than half a year of probing, the barbarians seem to have fully understood the situation in Zouchuan Dao. They dispatched thirty-six Third-Grade barbarians to tie up the hidden Third-Grade patriarchs of the wilderness, Jiang Family, and various sects, while sending out five Third-Grade barbarians to operate independently and slaughter, Chunyang Prefecture has already fallen, the barbarians did not massacre the city, it seems they want to rule Chunyang Prefecture City."
