In the Gu Realm, atop a majestic mountain peak, Gu Fei sat cross-legged, surrounded by a dazzling golden light. Numerous mysterious runes swirled around his body. His handsome face bore a trace of satisfaction, and his eyes sparkled with wisdom.
Refining the Nihility Devouring Flame lasted for three days and nights. When the last trace of energy was absorbed, he suddenly opened his eyes.
A terrifying aura erupted from his body, causing the entire cave to shake violently under the pressure. Countless stones fell from the ceiling, and cracks appeared on the walls.
'Nine-star Dou Saint, early stage.'
A hint of joy flashing in his eyes. He could clearly sense that his strength had grown more than a hundredfold compared to before. Now, he possessed the power to challenge even a Half- step Dou God powerhouse.
"It seems that the Dou God realm is not far off."
He muttered. With his breakthrough to the Nine-star Dou Saint level, an astonishing aura spread from the Gu Realm, shaking the entire Central Plains. Countless powerful individuals looked up at the sky in shock.
As the aftermath of the breakthrough gradually subsided, he slowly opened his eyes. He could clearly feel the surging power within him, as if he could control the entire world.
At that moment, a deafening dragon roar suddenly echoed from the distant sky. Over a dozen massive figures appeared, each radiating a terrifying and unsettling aura.
Leading them was Zi Yan, her stunningly beautiful face filled with joy, her bright eyes glowing with excitement.
"Congratulations on breaking through!"
Zi Yan said excitedly, her voice clear and melodious.
Gu Fei smiled slightly and was about to speak when he suddenly sensed powerful presences coming from all directions. His brow furrowed as he cast his gaze into the distance.
Countless streaks of light tore through the sky, like radiant galaxies. The scene was awe- inspiring.
Soon, several figures appeared before him. Leading them were Yan Jin and Lei Ying, the leaders of several ancient clans.
"Congratulations, on breaking through to Nine-star Dou Saint." Yan Jin said with a hearty laugh, his fiery red eyes filled with admiration.
"Reaching this level at such a young age really puts us to shame," Lei Ying added with genuine admiration, his face full of respect.
The other clan leaders also offered their congratulations, their words filled with praise and respect. They knew well that with his talent, he was destined to aim for the legendary Dou God realm.
With the current foundation of the Gu Clan, even if the other clans united, they would not be able to stand against them. Thus, the five clans- Yan, Lei, Yao, Ling, and Shi- had all come together to congratulate him and had brought important gifts.
"After much discussion, we've decided to present the ancient god jade from each of our clans and unlock the inheritance of the Tou She Ancient God."
Yao Dan spoke slowly, his tone respectful.
As he spoke, the five clan leaders each took out their ancient god jade and handed them to Gu Fei.
At that moment, Gu Yuan approached.
"Rightfully if there is a Tier Di Pill in the Ancient God's Mansion, as the clan leader, I should be the one to take it."
"All right, it's time to go inside," Gu Yuan said, his gaze fixed on the majestic Ancient God's
Mansion.
At his words, everyone nodded.
In the next moment, the group entered the mansion, disappearing behind the heavy doors. Inside the mansion, a grand and magnificent scene unfolded before their eyes. As far as they could see, countless giant stone pillars stood tall in the hall, each carved with mysterious runes, faintly glowing.
The ceiling of the hall was so high it seemed to reach the sky. Countless strange runes flowed across it, forming mysterious patterns. The sight was truly spectacular.
"What an astonishing aura!" Yan Jin couldn't help but exclaim.
The others, too, widened their eyes, taking in the scene without blinking.
Even someone as experienced as Gu Yuan couldn't help but be awed by the sight before him.
While everyone was in shock, Gu Fei suddenly spoke, "There seems to be something ahead."
At his words, everyone turned their gaze forward.
At the end of the hall, a dazzling light screen slowly rose.
"That's... the Heavenly Flame Plaza!" A trace of excitement flashed in Gu Yuan's eyes.
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
They all knew that the Heavenly Flame Plaza was one of the most important places in the
Ancient God's Mansion.
It was said that it gathered all of the heavenly flames in the world.
"Let's go take a look," Gu Fei said in a deep voice, stepping forward.
In the next moment, a vast plaza appeared before them. As far as they could see, countless stone pillars stood tall, and atop each pillar, a heavenly flame burned.
Each flame had a unique form- some blossomed like a lotus, some soared like a dragon, and some exuded the noble presence of a phoenix. Each flame radiated a terrifying aura that made
one's heart race.
"This is incredible!" Lei Ying couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes full of shock.
The others, too, widened their eyes, staring at the heavenly flames without blinking. Even
someone as experienced as Gu Yuan was awestruck by the sight before him.
"There seems to be something ahead," Gu Fei suddenly spoke again...
