Chapter 82: Gu He achieves enlightenment upon completing the Breakthrough Pill and advances to the Dou Zong level!

In the pill room, Gu He witnessed the uneven Medicinal Pill gradually being smoothed out by the cyan-white flames, which felt like a giant hand.

Suddenly, Pill Lightning appeared!

This time, the phenomenon between heaven and earth was even more arresting, and the Pill Lightning seemed to have the power to snatch away Souls.

Gu He controlled the heaven and earth cauldron and left the pill room together with it.

After all, it would be quite troublesome if he smashed the pill room.

After exiting the pill room, unsurprisingly, Gu He saw Yun Yun and the others, as well as several inner sect Elders who had arrived upon hearing the news.

Gu He set the heaven and earth cauldron down on the ground, said nothing, and directly summoned his Crimson Sky Sword.

Because the dignity breaking pill was only at the final step of the Pill Lightning, he moved the Cauldron and the Medicinal Pill, and the Pill Lightning followed closely behind, pressing in step by step.

Gu He controlled the purple-red Medicinal Pill to float above the Cauldron while raising his sword to face the rolling silver lightning.

"Boom—!"

The dark clouds were split open by the thunder, creating a deep crevice.

A silver lightning bolt half a foot wide and long, like a gigantic silver flying python, burst out and shot straight toward the purple-red Medicinal Pill!

"Void Breaking Slash!"

Gu He unfurled his golden wings, the wind shook, and he struck with his sword.

The sword shadows were layered, like an endless mountain range of red leaves, colliding with the thunder.

His Soul power was entirely focused on refining the Medicinal Pill, so he could not use Sky Transformation, a Dou Technique that boosts strength in a short time. He could only use the Crimson Sky Sword to shatter the Heavenly Dao Pill Lightning's attacks bit by bit.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Successive sword shadows and thunder clashed, bringing out dull thuds and gusts of high-altitude wind.

His black robes fluttered in the gale, and Gu He seemed to be treading on the raging waves beneath the dark clouds.

"So this is the power of heaven and earth? It is..."

"Nothing more than this!"

Gu He formed Seals with one hand, a black light the size of a bowl flashed past, and then he struck with his sword.

"Yamas Judgment!"

The Sword Qi, like the ghastly white bones in a Hell burning pit, carried immense energy and collided directly with several bolts of Pill Lightning, tracking the target, never dying until the end!

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom...!"

The non-stop bombing sounds were even more terrifying than the momentum of the Pill Lightning.

And Gu He's Yamas Judgment, after hitting repeatedly, increased in power, multiplying with each strike.

Gu He swung the final sword strike.

In an instant, the Void Realm shook, and the silver light was crushed like a toy marble, bursting apart instantly.

The thunder was directly shattered and annihilated!

Gu He alone, single-handedly tore through the eternal night!

The Pill Tribulation passed, and the dignity breaking pill was formed.

The dark clouds broke apart, the sunset once again enveloped the Cloud Mist Sect, the light and shadow paused, and the world returned to tranquility like a snuffed-out candle.

As the might of heaven dissipated, Gu He collected the dignity breaking pill into a white cold jade bottle.

He sighed helplessly in his heart and reflected on himself.

Previously, his ability to slay eight Dou Zun Experts was indeed partly due to luck.

Although the opponents did not underestimate him, they did not pay too much attention to him, as he was still only a Dou Huang.

And his Heaven Rank Dou Skill, Sky Transformation, had explosive power, which led to a crushing situation for a time.

But he could not rely too much on Sky Transformation; after all, just like now, he could only use the Bloodthirsty Divine Path's Yamas Judgment.

As these thoughts became clearer, Gu He realized that his cultivation level, which had rapidly advanced through the System, seemed to have loosened...

Could it be...!

"Gu He, have you succeeded?" Yun Shan looked at him in disbelief, rushing to Gu He's side in a hurry, his face, which showed no signs of aging, looking at him.

This was a Tier 7 dignity breaking pill, which could increase the chance of a Breakthrough to Dou Zun by at least forty percent!

After Cultivating to a certain Realm, due to individual differences, one would inevitably encounter a Bottleneck. At this time, having a Medicinal Pill for a Breakthrough was particularly important, which was one of the reasons why the status of an Alchemist was so noble.

In the past, he had sighed countless times, "A Breakthrough to Dou Zun is untraceable!"

"I fear this old man will stop here...!"

Although his cultivation as a Dou Zong was not bad, and he could easily crush the old man Jia Xingtian, he still yearned for the path of Dou Zun Experts!

And now... it was within reach!

What virtue and ability did he, old man Yun Shan, possess, what virtue and ability!

Gu He directly handed the hard-refined dignity breaking pill to Yun Shan, then took out the Break-Sect Pill he had been preparing and handed it to Yun Yun.

"The two of you, I feel like I am about to have a Breakthrough!"

Yun Yun's hand shook while holding the cold ice box.

Is this man a Prodigy??

How can his speed of advancement be so fast!

Although he is a pervert...! But he is worthy of being her man!

Yun Yun then reacted, put away the heavy box, and looked at him with beautiful eyes, "Gu He, go ahead!"

"I believe in you."

Gu He nodded, "Let us Breakthrough together."

Xiao Yi Xian and Liu Ling were also on the side, showing expressions of worship toward Gu He, admiring him like plants longing for the light.

Yun Shan suddenly laughed heartily, his smile tinged with a hint of madness, "Now our Cloud Mist Sect is truly a behemoth!"

"The glory of our Old Ancestor... is not far off!"

Yun Shan held the jade bottle like a treasure, feeling the bursts of cold air emanating from it, his thoughts swirling like a tide.

Gu He nodded, and after giving instructions, he flapped his wings and flew toward the cave in the back mountain.

...

Passing over that lush forest.

In the Cultivation cave.

Gu He quickly sat cross-legged on the stone slab, seizing that fleeting inspiration and opportunity.

He had already taken the Qi Gathering Medicinal Pill to calm the surging waves of his Qi vortex and restore the energy consumed in the battle against the Pill Lightning.

With that spark of the opportunity for Cultivation erupting, Gu He quickly took the Break-Sect Pill to increase the success rate of the Breakthrough.

Gu He closed his eyes tightly.

He took a deep breath and gathered all his Dou Qi into his Dantian Qi vortex.

The Dou Qi in his body circulated rapidly, as if it were about to spark fire.

He felt as if his body was about to be torn apart, but he did not retreat because of it.

Stars covered the sky, dawn emerged, like a wild field of straw.

At this moment, Gu He's Dou Qi suddenly erupted with a powerful energy.

This energy broke through the ordinary Seal Gu He had placed, sweeping across the entire back mountain valley like a storm, causing the surrounding trees to sway precariously. Gu He's body was also wrapped in this energy, as if he had turned into a bolt of lightning the size of a water bucket.

After a long while, this momentum gradually dissipated.

Gu He slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of excitement flashing in his deep eyes.

"Finally, Dou Zong!"

He knew that he had finally taken that crucial step and become a true Dou Zong.

The improvement in strength also gave him greater confidence in the near Heaven-Defying Dou Techniques of the System.

"My whole body feels comfortable!"

Gu He let out a long sigh, his excitement lingering.

He waved his hand and took out a storage ring.

The incomplete Cultivation Technique inside floated in the air, emitting a mysterious aura.

"Xiao Yan's Flame Mantra..."

"System, absorb it."

[Ding! Detected energy aura on the Flame Mantra Incomplete Manual, absorption in progress!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for advancing to a two-star Dou Zong!]

Gu He quickly sat cross-legged again, advancing once more.

This feeling of cheating was like eating at Mickey's Magic Clubhouse!

Gu He also had his own thoughts in his heart.

He would sooner or later have to go to the Central Plains to explore, and the cultivation of a Dou Zong was just a stepping stone to enter the Central Plains.

He would not become arrogant and look down on everyone just because he had successfully slain eight Dou Zun Experts.

That was just a matter of luck, and how far could one go relying solely on luck?

He, Gu He, must become stronger...!
