112: Slay the Four Demon Stars, and ascend to the Myriad Stars Heavenly Stele Ranking!
Three towering surges of Devilish Qi rolled in, tearing the firmament apart.
Carrying endless pressure, they swept across countless star beasts along the way.
Even some weaker trial-takers along the path were shattered and devoured, becoming nourishment for the star god origin.
Gu Qingchen and An Zhiyu stood in the Void Realm, their robes fluttering, expressions indifferent.
"Husband, the Aura of these three surges of Devilish Qi doesn't seem much weaker than the Rahu Star God."
An Zhiyu was somewhat surprised.
According to what Gu Tianquan said, in past War of Divine Revelation during the Myriad Stars Grand Offering, there were not many star gods with strength comparable to the Dao Attainment Realm.
But now, not only was the Rahu Star God's strength as high as the Seventh Heaven of Dao Attainment.
Even the energy manifested by the other three surges of Devilish Qi included one at the Sixth Heaven of Dao Attainment and two at the Fourth Heaven of Dao Attainment.
"Indeed."
Gu Qingchen nodded: "The star gods descending during this Myriad Stars Grand Offering are indeed revealing oddities in every aspect, but this is a good thing for me.
No matter how strong they are or how many there are, they are just a few more pieces of prey.
It's perfect to refine them all together, saving us from having to search everywhere."
Before his voice faded, the three surges of Devilish Qi arrived, transforming into three star gods, each a thousand zhang tall.
One was dark silver, like condensed, tangible disaster Qi, with an Eclipse Moon Wheel rotating slowly above its head, as if a demon moon had descended.
One was dark red all over, like burning demonic flames, with rolling red Devilish Qi revealing an ominous nature, as if it were the source of a plague;
The last one was purple-black, with leaping purple flames like fire and lightning, appearing incredibly mysterious and profound.
"Jidu Star God, Yuebei Star God, Ziqi Star God..."
Gu Qingchen swept his gaze over them, a faint smile curling his lips: "With the four demon stars gathered here, it saves me quite a bit of effort."
"Roar—"
Seeing that reinforcements had arrived, the Rahu Star God stopped fleeing, its Aura surging, and it let out a heaven-shaking roar.
The long spear in its hand condensed once more, and the four demon stars formed an encirclement.
Gu Qingchen was unhurried, slashing out with his sword again: "The second sword of the Primordial Ancestor Sword—Tribulation Light."
In an instant, the Yantian Divine Sword slashed out boundless sword light, forming an infinite sword Realm.
Within the sword Realm, three Dharma forms of the Immortal King of the Sword Dao slowly emerged.
The three forms merged into one, wielding an immortal sword and slashing downwards, and suddenly, a sword light that seemed to cut through all the tribulations of the world swept out.
This sword strike was like the Primordial Tribulation from the beginning of heaven and earth; wherever the sword light passed, the Void Realm shattered, starlight dispersed, and it turned into boundless Primordial Qi.
Seeing this, the four star gods roared, each unleashing their strongest Divine Ability, attempting to resist the power of this strike.
However, Gu Qingchen's sword light seemed to cut through everything, instantly tearing through all the methods of the four star gods and striking directly at their bodies.
"Boom—"
With a loud noise, the four star gods were hit by the sword light, their figures sent flying backward, the starlight around them dissipating, and their Aura instantly withered.
Gu Qingchen's expression did not change, still carrying a faint smile, the Yantian Sword in his hand raised again, the sword light like a rainbow, pointing directly at the four star gods.
"The third sword—Reincarnation!"
This strike seemed to invoke the power of the cycle of heaven and earth; wherever the sword light passed, time and space were distorted.
The four star gods felt their vision go black, as if they had fallen into an endless cycle of Reincarnation, unable to break free.
"Awoo—"
As the wails sounded, the four demon stars were slashed into nothingness, leaving only four star god origin cores.
"Yay!"
An Zhiyu, standing to the side, cheered and clapped supportively: "Husband, after swallowing these four Origin cores, you should be able to break through to the Dao Attainment Realm in one go, right?"
Gu Qingchen's Origin was incredibly profound, so wanting to break through naturally required deeper accumulation.
But the cultivation of the four demon stars was extremely high, and the star god origin contained within their Origin cores was naturally even more surging. If Gu Qingchen swallowed them all to increase his cultivation, it would not be difficult to break through to the Dao Attainment Realm.
However, Gu Qingchen shook his head.
"The Dao Attainment Realm is critical; I am not prepared to break through so rashly."
In the Cultivate world, there is a common consensus.
That is, the three Mortal Realms still belong to the Mortal.
While the Three Spirit, Three Profound, and Three Dao Realms have already embarked on the path of transcendence.
As for the subsequent Three Saint Realm, that is true transcendence into sainthood, where the essence of life begins to fully sublimate, becoming a different kind of life form.
And as the final Realm of the path of transcendence, the Realm before entering sainthood—the Dao Attainment Realm, is extremely critical!
This Realm is the one that truly lays the foundation for the supreme!
For those with poor strength or insufficient foundation, this Realm is the last chance to supplement their foundation and Dao foundation.
And Gu Qingchen's goal is the Three Origin Realm, which surpasses the Three Emperor Realm.
Naturally, he must polish his Dao foundation to perfection while in the Dao Attainment Realm.
"This time, I will wait until I have swallowed the star god origin of three hundred and sixty-five main stars before breaking through to the Dao Attainment Realm!"
"But can we really collect the star god origin of three hundred and sixty-five main stars in time?"
An Zhiyu frowned.
Although the speed at which the two of them are currently collecting star god origin is already quite fast.
There will always be other star god origins that fall into the hands of other trial-takers.
"That's simple, isn't it?"
Gu Qingchen smiled upon hearing this: "They refine the star god origin, so I'll just refine them, won't I?"
"Refine... them?"
Hearing this, An Zhiyu was slightly stunned.
Her husband's approach... is he intending to make an enemy of the entire Myriad Stars Continent?
"Haha!"
Seeing her reaction, Gu Qingchen laughed heartily: "Don't worry, I have my own methods to strip the star god origin from their bodies without harming their lives."
As he spoke, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"Of course, if there are any blind fools, I wouldn't mind refining them along with their star god origin.
Just like these little thieves right here!"
...
Meanwhile.
In the center of the Bu Tian Mountain Range, a ten-thousand-meter-tall heavenly stele stood.
Experts from countless forces gathered in one hall, on the vast plaza beside the heavenly stele, watching the rankings of the major Prodigies.
And Gu Qingchen's name was prominently listed at the top of the rankings.
"Hmm? How is the first place in this War of Divine Revelation someone from the Gu Family?"
"Who is Gu Qingchen?
Why is he ranked first on the ten thousand star heavenly stele?"
"The Gu Family has been in decline for so many years; are they finally going to produce a Prodigy?"
"..."
Many people were puzzled to see Gu Qingchen top the rankings.
In their understanding, the Gu Family was merely a Family ranked around tenth on the Myriad Stars Continent.
In recent years, it had declined significantly, and it was feared that it would slip outside the top twenty.
Unexpectedly, this time someone from the Gu Family was able to suppress the Prodigies of the three Holy Lands and the various Imperial Dynasties and ancient kingdoms, rushing to the top of the rankings in one go.
However, those who knew the inside story boasted smugly: "You don't know about this, do you? The Gu Family has recently produced a true Prodigy!"
"That's right, this Gu Qingchen is the current Xuantian Holy Son. At the Holy Son Coronation Ceremony not long ago, he suppressed Di Xuancang in one move, and is vaguely known as the number one Prodigy of the Human Race!"
"What? The Xuantian Holy Son actually came from the Gu Family?"
"The Gu Family has produced a Dragon!"
"..."
