Chapter 5: Blood Refining the Sui God Pearl, Charging into the Yu Country's Capital!

The originally festive and lively Gu Family was now plunged into silence. The servants moved lightly, not daring to make a sound, fearing they might disturb that person.

Inside the ancestral hall, Gu Shengge knelt before the spirit tablets of his parents. Gu Tianhao and a group of Gu Family Elders stood outside, looking as timid as elementary school students who had made a mistake.

A moment later, Gu Shengge, having apologized to his parents, walked out of the ancestral hall. Gu Tianhao immediately stepped forward and apologized to him in a low voice.

“Gu Shengge, this matter is your Great Uncle’s fault. I didn't investigate the situation of that Liu Family woman clearly and hastily held the wedding, which made you lose face. If you want to blame someone, blame your Great Uncle.”

Hearing this, Gu Shengge shook his head slightly: “Great Uncle, this is not your fault. It’s the Liu Family who is too shameless, wanting to sell one daughter twice. It’s also that I was too fixated on my parents’ last wish, which caused the Gu Family to become a laughingstock.”

Seeing that his great-nephew did not blame him, Gu Tianhao said nothing more.

Gu Shengge threw a Storage Ring to his Great Uncle and continued: “Inside this Storage Ring are some resources, enough for the Gu Family to Cultivate a Golden Core Immortal Master, or more than ten Foundation Establishment Cultivators. You can decide how to use them, Great Uncle.”

“Mn mn! Gu Shengge, don’t worry, Great Uncle will make good use of these resources.” Gu Tianhao nodded repeatedly, pleasantly surprised.

Gu Shengge looked back at the ancestral hall again, a hint of apology flashing in his eyes.

Having been an orphan in his previous life, he cherished the parental affection he received in this life even more.

Moreover, the reason why Gu Father and Gu Mother were targeted by evildoers was because of a treasure he had given them.

He also bore a part of the responsibility for his parents’ deaths.

Because of this, Gu Shengge felt very guilty, which was why he was so insistent on fulfilling his parents’ last wish.

However, things did not go as he wished; he happened to choose a rotten person, which caused his parents’ last wish to fall through.

‘Father, Mother, rest assured, without Liu Ruyan, you will still have many daughters-in-Law. Stay in the Underworld for a few more years, and when your child becomes an Immortal, I will bring your daughters-in-Law down to see you!’

Gu Shengge thought to himself. He believed that there was an Underworld and Reincarnation in this world.

So, Father, Mother, please don’t reincarnate so quickly!

“Great Uncle, what is Lin Fan’s background?” Gu Shengge asked.

Most Sons of Destiny like Lin Fan usually have a missing father and mother, or a non-biological older sister or younger sister, and so on.

He was a kind person and couldn't bear to see families separated, so it was better to send Lin Fan’s whole family down to accompany him.

Upon hearing this, Gu Tianhao recalled for a moment and told Gu Shengge some things he knew about Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was from Qing Shi Town, about thirty li away from White Cloud City. He had a mother and a younger sister, his father died young, and he recently joined the Changhe Sect, becoming famous within a thousand li radius.

After listening, Gu Shengge nodded. Following the direction Gu Tianhao pointed, he transformed into a silver lightning bolt and flew towards Qing Shi Town.

To the east of Qing Shi Town, in a relatively large compound, several servants were busy. A maid was washing clothes, and a cook was preparing food.

In the courtyard, a middle-aged woman leaned on a reclining chair, eating candied fruit fed to her by the maid on her left, enjoying the fanning of the maid on her right, cool and comfortable.

“Mother, all my rouge and powder are used up. Why hasn’t Brother returned yet?”

A young girl in a pink dress walked out of the house and complained to the woman. The woman looked up and said:

“Your brother went to snatch the bride. He might only return tomorrow. Don’t worry, your brother has made connections with the Liu Family in the city this time. When the time comes, you can have as much rouge and powder as you want.”

“Mother, I heard that Brother is going to snatch a marriage from the Gu Family in the city. Can he succeed?” Lin Jiaojiao was a little worried.

Lin Mother, however, looked proud: “What’s there to fear? Your brother is a Disciple of an Immortal of the Changhe Sect. What is the Gu Family in front of an Immortal of the Changhe Sect? He will definitely succeed.”

Only then did Lin Jiaojiao relax, and she began to fantasize about her beautiful future after moving into the city.

Meanwhile, a thousand meters above them, Gu Shengge looked down at the Lin Family members, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

He had thought there would be some unexpected gains, but he didn’t expect them to be just two Mortals.

Slightly disappointed, Gu Shengge’s mind stirred, and two silver lightning bolts descended from the sky, reducing Lin Mother and Lin Jiaojiao to ashes.

This sudden scene terrified the two maids in the courtyard. They knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, mumbling for the heavens to appease their wrath.

And the heavens they spoke of had long since returned to White Cloud City.

...

At night, stars cascaded like a waterfall, twinkling brightly.

Inside the house, Gu Shengge sat cross-legged on the bed. The Sui God Pearl floated before him, silver light flowing, emanating a faint Law of Time.

Raising his hand to form a hand seal, he forced out several drops of essence blood from his fingertips, enveloping the Sui God Pearl, blood refining this semi-Immortal Artifact.

Blood refining was more effective than ordinary refining. Although it consumed a lot of essence blood, it was worth it.

The night was fleeting. The next morning, wisps of sunlight penetrated into the room, shining on Gu Shengge’s slightly pale face.

After a night of blood refining, one hundred and twenty-six Restrictions of the Sui God Pearl had been refined by him, and he had initially gained control of this semi-Immortal Artifact.

Even if this semi-Immortal Artifact were to be seized by someone else in the future, as long as the Restrictions refined by Gu Shengge were not refined by others, others would not be able to use it.

Taking out a third-grade Spirit Pill to replenish essence blood, Gu Shengge’s complexion regained some redness.

Items like Medicinal Pills, Formations, and spirit medicines are divided into nine grades, with the first grade being the lowest and the ninth grade the highest.

As for Cultivation Techniques, there is no grade distinction. The Realm one can Cultivate to depends on one’s Comprehension Ability, effort, and talent.

For example, the “Divine Xiao Thunder Punishment Universe Dao Tribulation True Scripture” that Gu Shengge Cultivates is a Thunder Dao True Scripture he deduced using the jade disc of creation, by incorporating the profound thunder methods of hundreds of schools, which is enough for him to Cultivate to Nascent Soul Great Perfection.

As for subsequent Realms, further deductions would be needed.

Putting the Sui God Pearl back into his body, as for the Emperor Hao's World-Burning Flame, Gu Shengge would refine it when he returned to the Qiankun Taoist Sect. He had more important things to do now.

“Great Uncle, I’m leaving. Please take care.”

In the front hall of the Gu Mansion, Gu Tianhao heard Gu Shengge’s voice transmission. He turned to look outside, and a silver lightning bolt streaked across, disappearing into the sky.

In the azure sky where strong winds raged, the silver lightning bolt traveled a thousand li in an instant, rushing towards the Yu Country’s Capital.

Because the person who killed Gu Shengge’s parents was an Elder of the Li Family in the Yu Country’s Capital.

The Li Family was a prominent family in the Yu Country, backed by the Changhe Sect. There were Golden Core powerhouses in their clan, and they were also intermarried with the royal family, making their connections intricate.

However, no matter how many connections one had, in the face of absolute strength, they were nothing more than chickens and dogs, unable to withstand a single blow.

One must be strong oneself to forge iron.

Even if the Li Family had a Soul Transformation powerhouse, Gu Shengge was not afraid in the slightest. At worst, it would be a mutual destruction!

A distance of several thousand li was but a few breaths for Gu Shengge.

Above the Yu Country’s Capital, a silver lightning bolt swept past, completely disregarding the Capital’s anti-flight Formation, startling the city-guarding Cultivators who came out to intercept him.

“Who dares to trespass into the Capital? Do you not know…”

“Scram!”

Unexpectedly, before the city-guarding Cultivator could finish his warning, a thunderous divine pronouncement was heard, like the wrath of the heavens, shaking their Souls, causing their magical power to become chaotic, and their bodies to lose control, all falling down like dumplings.

Deep within the Yu Country’s royal palace, the royal Old Ancestor was also awakened and hastily emerged from his seclusion.
