Terran Guardian - Chapter 3528

Chapter 3506 The Way of Heaven and Earth: Different Paths Lead to the Same Destination

. Qingyin Domain is a mid-level Immortal Domain.

The Immortal Emperor’s Boundless Scripture emphasizes gathering the fortune of all people into oneself, and then proving the Dao and breaking through realms.

In such a mid-level Immortal Domain, the number of cultivators is naturally astonishing.

In addition, the Great Qin Immortal Court has just destroyed the Great Xia Immortal Court not long ago, and swept away the two major forces with thunderous force, and its prestige has reached an unprecedented peak.

At this moment, the fortune of all people is the most abundant, so it is naturally extraordinary

. One year later.

Thick tribulation clouds covered the sky, making all the cultivators of the Great Qin Immortal Court feel scared.

They looked up at the tribulation clouds that seemed to cover the entire capital, and their expressions were full of horror.

“Heavenly Tribulation!”

“This kind of aura is definitely not something that the Ancient Immortal Tribulation can possess, this is the Immortal Emperor Tribulation—”

“Is His Majesty about to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm?”

Many cultivators serving in the Immortal Court are now greatly shocked.

A normal breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor realm should first involve the appearance of Immortal Emperor phenomena, followed by gradual seclusion to break through formations, thus attracting the Heavenly Tribulation.

However,

Gu Xuanji’s breakthrough was completely devoid of any Immortal Emperor phenomena; the tribulation clouds appeared abruptly, as if everything had fallen into place naturally.

The reason they were certain the breakthrough was Gu Xuanji was simple:

in the entire Great Qin Dynasty

, only he was a half-step Immortal Emperor.

Only he possessed the qualifications to break through to Immortal Emperor.

Sure enough,

as the tribulation clouds appeared, a great Dao shook the void within the imperial palace, and a figure tore through the void, instantly stepping into the Ninth Heaven and entering the Chaos.

…

“Immortal Emperor Tribulation!”

In the Chaos, Gu Xuanji looked at the approaching Heavenly Tribulation. The destructive aura did not instill fear in him; instead, his eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit.

After years of cultivation,

he had finally taken this step.

Gu Xuanji was fully prepared.

“Boom!”

The long-brewing tribulation clouds trembled, and a devastating heavenly tribulation crashed down.

The power of this tribulation was comparable to that of a half-step Immortal Emperor.

However, for Gu Xuanji, this level of tribulation posed little threat.

He didn’t even use any supreme treasures; he simply unleashed a punch, shattering the first tribulation.

Soon

, the second and third tribulations appeared.

Towards the end, Gu Xuanji felt some pressure, but that was all.

As a top-tier Immortal Emperor’s inheritance, the Immortal Emperor’s Boundless Scripture possessed mysteries that ordinary inheritances could not match.

Although the Immortal Emperor’s tribulation was terrifying, it couldn’t harm Gu Xuanji.

When the last tribulation dissipated, a powerful aura surged from Gu Xuanji’s body, instantly sweeping out in all directions.

Many powerful figures who sensed the fluctuations in the tribulation’s aura and rushed to the scene saw this and their eyes flickered, but none of them made a move.

If Gu Xuanji’s tribulation was a matter of life and death, then they would definitely intervene.

After all, dealing with a Celestial Emperor who had just survived the Heavenly Tribulation and was in a weakened state would undoubtedly be much easier.

However,

Gu Xuanji showed no weakness from beginning to end.

This showed that such a being had a profound foundation, and once he survived the Celestial Emperor Tribulation, his strength would be far beyond that of an ordinary newly promoted Celestial Emperor.

They naturally did not want to offend such a powerful figure unless necessary.

…

Qingyin Domain.

Within the Great Qin Celestial Court, Gu Xuanji’s return after attaining the Dao naturally excited the entire court and the people.

With a Celestial Emperor presiding over it, the strength of Great Qin would rise to another level.

Among the many mid-level Celestial Domains, the forces that could truly have a Celestial Emperor presiding over them were very few, and each force was a top-tier existence.

The stronger the Great Qin Celestial Court was, the more benefits those of them who depended on Great Qin would naturally receive.

At this moment.

Inside the Celestial Palace of the Imperial Palace.

Tantai Feng stood respectfully there, and the person in front of him was naturally Gu Xuanji.

“I have something I need you to do.”

“Your Majesty, please give your orders!”

“My offspring in the lower realm has now ascended to the upper realm and is currently in the Xuan Tian Dao Sect in the Divine Heaven Domain. Lead the Sky Patrol Guards to the Xuan Tian Dao Sect and bring him back.”

Gu Xuanji said slowly.

He had already received the news when Gu Xing ascended to the upper realm, but he hadn’t taken any action, mainly because the situation in the Qingyin Domain was still unsettled.

The situation in this Immortal Domain was unstable, so sending Gu Xing here would be useless.

But now that Great Qin had eliminated the other three major forces and become the overlord of the Qingyin Domain, and he himself had stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm, it was time to bring Gu Xing back.

Gu Xuanji also valued this offspring highly.

After all, this was his own bloodline, and his only offspring to ascend to the upper realm.

Furthermore,

Gu Xing’s ability to ascend from the lower realm was enough to show that he had good cultivation aptitude.

If he could be nurtured, it would be of great use to Great Qin.

Tantai Feng was momentarily stunned, then quickly recovered and hurriedly bowed his head in response,

“Your subject obeys!”

“Remember, this journey across the Immortal Continent is fraught with risks. Be extremely cautious in all matters and avoid any mistakes!”

Gu Xuanji cautioned.

He was well aware of the risks of crossing the Immortal Continent.

When the Great Qin Dynasty moved from Shenfeng Continent to Taixuan Continent, it paid a heavy price.

However, the Great Qin Immortal Court had relocated its entire court, causing quite a stir and attracting considerable attention.

This time, only Tantai Feng was being sent to lead the Sky Patrol Guard, keeping him a relatively low profile.

Moreover, Tantai Feng’s style was always cautious, and Gu Xuanji felt confident with him on board.

After Tantai Feng accepted the order and withdrew, Gu Xuanji went into seclusion to cultivate.

He had just broken through to the Immortal Emperor realm, and his cultivation foundation was not yet solidified, so he couldn’t afford to be careless.

This was also why Gu Xuanji hadn’t personally gone to the Divine Heaven Domain.

Of course…

There was another reason.

The Great Qin Celestial Court had just conquered the Qingyin Domain, and everything was still unstable.

His departure as the head of the Celestial Court would inevitably cause turmoil within the Great Qin.

Meanwhile,

Tantai Feng, having received the order, quickly and secretly mobilized three thousand elite Sky Patrol Guards, heading straight for the Divine Heaven Domain without alerting anyone else.

He dared not be careless about Gu Xuanji’s orders.

After all, since founding the Great Qin, this Heavenly Emperor had not taken any concubines, nor left any offspring.

Now that the other party had an offspring from the lower realm, it was very likely that he would be the future Crown Prince of the Great Qin Celestial Court.

Moreover, the fact

that the future Crown Prince could ascend from the lower realm showed that his cultivation aptitude was exceptional; such a person might one day have the hope of reaching the Immortal Emperor realm.

Therefore, from any perspective, Tantai Feng had to treat this matter with caution.

…   Shen Changqing was unaware of

the movements of the Great Qin Celestial Court.   However, he was fully aware of the news of Gu Xuanji’s tribulation and attainment of Dao.   To be honest, Shen Changqing was also somewhat surprised when he first received this news.   After all, Gu Xuanji had only cultivated for a maximum of two million years.   Moreover,   he didn’t possess a supreme treasure like the Seven Profound Divine Tower, yet he was able to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm in such a short time.   ”It seems that he also has a great opportunity!”   Shen Changqing thought to himself.   Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why Gu Xuanji was able to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm in such a short time.   After all, in terms of aptitude, Shen Changqing believed that he possessed an innate immortal body and was truly at the top level.   Apart from a few individual immortal bodies that had advantages in cultivation that ordinary people could not match, other geniuses, even those with the same innate immortal body, were not as good as him in cultivation.   But even so,   it took Shen Changqing tens of millions of years to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.   To say that Gu Xuanji could attain the Immortal Emperor realm in less than two million years based on his own aptitude, he naturally wouldn’t believe it.   However,   although Shen Changqing guessed that Gu Xuanji had a great opportunity, he wasn’t particularly tempted.   There are countless opportunities in the world, and it’s not surprising that some can help one break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.   Moreover, at his level, let alone an Immortal Emperor opportunity, even a common Half-Saint opportunity wouldn’t catch Shen Changqing’s eye.   For him,   breaking through to Half-Saint was no longer a major problem.   What truly prevented him from breaking through was the restriction of the Heavenly Dao.   Whenever the Great Dao of Longevity manifested, Shen Changqing was confident he could instantly become a Half-Saint.   Therefore, he wouldn’t be tempted by opportunities to become an Immortal Emperor.   ”Gu Xuanji broke through to the Immortal Emperor realm, and now the Heavenly Patrol Guards are secretly setting out; they must be here for Gu Xing!”   Shen Changqing understood as he read the message privately sent by a post-natal demon god within the Dao-Practicing Alliance.   This was the Dao-Practicing Alliance’s intelligence capabilities.   Even though the Great Qin Immortal Court was acting discreetly, it couldn’t escape the eyes of the Dao-Practicing Alliance.   After glancing at the Heavenly Dao Mirror, Shen Changqing continued to meditate and comprehend the Dao.   Unlike his secluded cultivation in the Seven Profound Divine Tower, his current enlightenment within the Nourishing Heart Abode allows him to more clearly perceive the Dao of Heaven and Earth, observing the changes of the sun, moon, and stars, with countless profound mysteries welling up within him.   The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, though different in path, ultimately leads to the same destination, with no fundamental difference.   Whether it’s the Dao of Slaughter, the Dao of Defense, or even the Dao of Weapons and Alchemy, they all belong to the Dao of Heaven and Earth in essence.   Therefore,   Shen Changqing’s current observation of the Dao of Heaven and Earth is, in effect, a verification of his own Dao.   His comprehension of the Immortal Execution Sword Scripture, as well as his mastery of the Dao of Weapons and Alchemy, seem to have undergone subtle changes.   These changes are not obvious,   but Shen Changqing is not in a hurry.   Enlightenment is never something that can be achieved overnight, and so-called sudden enlightenment is not something that can be achieved at will.   All sudden enlightenment is based on a sufficiently solid foundation of one’s past accumulation.   Only under such circumstances, at a special moment, can one suddenly gain numerous insights, and all previous learning and understanding become integrated and interconnected, leading to a significant leap in strength.   Therefore,   what Shen Changqing is currently doing is this process of accumulation,   especially in the realm of weapon crafting.   He has already stepped one foot into the eighth level, but to truly break through, he still needs a catalyst.   As for how long it will take to seize this opportunity, that depends on his own destiny.   Forcing it is utterly futile.
