Chapter 1522 - 1268: Breaking Through Nine Layers (Part 2)
Duan Gujin was also full of excitement."Great!"
The two of them spent an entire day, and at last, they finally returned to the Eternal Divine Court.
Upon returning, Duan Gujin immediately sought out Elder Wang to inquire about recent events. Elder Wang informed him that the Divine World had been at peace recently.
Duan Gujin knew in his heart that the peace in the Divine World was only temporary, and soon, those Exotic Realm Creatures would launch another attack.
This time on the journey to the Demon Transformation World, Wu Xiuqing obtained the Ancient Demon Saint Treasure she desired. She initially thought she would have to spend a long time searching for it, but unexpectedly, Chen Xiaoxiao had already found that Ancient Demon Beast Treasure for her early on, saving her a lot of time.
Wu Xiuqing was at the residence arranged for her in the Eternal Divine Court, focused on refining that Ancient Demon Saint Treasure. She wanted to merge her heart and mind with the Ancient Demon Saint Treasure to fully unleash its power.
Meanwhile, Duan Gujin was quietly cultivating in his own residence. He knew that this was merely the calm before the storm, and a bigger storm would come later.
Three days later, he met with Gao Qixiu, who told him that the Immortal Domain Immortals had dispatched many experts and completely sealed the entire Holy Fire Forbidden Land.
After sealing it, the Rule Power of the Holy Fire Forbidden Land became the same as the rule power of thirty thousand Small Planes. Subsequently, numerous Immortal Domain Immortals worked together to completely trigger the Rule Power within the Holy Fire Forbidden Land, turning it into ruins.
Duan Gujin pondered for a moment and sighed.
He knew that this meant all those Exotic Realm Creatures who had entered the Holy Fire Forbidden Land would be buried there.
Moreover, the advantage of the Immortal Domain Immortals doing this was to completely destroy the spatial passageway through which Exotic Realm Creatures entered the Holy Fire Forbidden Land.
From now on, those Exotic Realm Creatures would no longer be able to enter the Divine World through the spatial passageway of the Holy Fire Forbidden Land.
"Indeed, this seems to be the only way to completely prevent those Exotic Realm Creatures from entering the Holy Fire Forbidden Land and then invading the Divine World!"
Duan Gujin remarked with emotion.
"That's exactly what those experts from the Immortal Domain said!"
Gao Qixiu nodded in agreement.
After a while, he sighed and said, "If the Divine World is occupied by Exotic Realm Creatures, do you think those Immortal Domain Immortals will do to the Divine World what they did to the Holy Fire Forbidden Land? Suppressing the Rule Power of the entire Divine World rapidly and then triggering it? Only this way could prevent Exotic Realm Creatures from invading the Immortal Domain through the Divine World."
"I believe that if they're left with no choice, the Immortals of the Immortal Domain might indeed use this method to stop those Exotic Realm Creatures. You know, once the Divine World falls, the entire Divine World will be doomed! The Immortal Domain Immortals might consider this as a last resort, but surely they will have a way to deal with those Exotic Realm Creatures!"
Duan Gujin knew that if the Divine World were truly occupied by Exotic Realm Creatures, then the Immortal Domain Immortals would definitely intervene to prevent Exotic Realm Creatures from using the Divine World as a springboard to invade the Immortal Domain.
The numerous experts of the Divine World would likely not be able to migrate entirely to the Immortal Domain, and many Divine World Martial Artists here would inevitably perish.
"We can only pray that the Immortal Domain Immortals will be able to handle those Exotic Realm Creatures!"
Gao Qixiu prayed earnestly.
Duan Gujin immediately agreed, "Sect Master Gao, we can only hope that the Immortal Domain Immortals can handle those Exotic Realm Creatures. Given our strength, it's difficult for us to defeat those Exotic Realm Creatures! This battle against the Exotic Realm Creatures, whoever can claim the final victory, ultimately depends on whose strength is greater, theirs or the Immortal Domain Immortals'."
Gao Qixiu curiously asked, "So, who do you think is stronger?"
"That, I really can't judge, but I believe that the Immortal Domain Immortals will still have a way to deal with those Exotic Realm Creatures!"
Duan Gujin responded promptly.
He knew that in the previous life, the Divine World was completely occupied by those Exotic Realm Creatures, and the Divine World paid a huge price.
But in this life, perhaps the situation would be different; he could only pray that the experts in the Immortal Domain could figure out how to counter those Exotic Realm Creatures.
He also understood in his heart that pinning all hope on the Immortal Domain Immortal experts was not realistic at all.
"Sect Master Gao, what we need to do now is to continuously improve our own strength. Maybe one day, the Immortal Domain Immortals will come up with a way to deal with those Exotic Realm Creatures. What we need to do is to hold out until then! In these troubled times, we first need to ensure our own survival, right?"
Duan Gujin said calmly.
"Right, right, you're absolutely right!"
Gao Qixiu nodded repeatedly.
He was pondering in his heart that Duan Gujin must know some secrets of the Immortal Domain Immortals, but it seemed that the entire Immortal Domain Immortals might not be entirely confident in defeating those Exotic Realm Creatures.
"No matter what, I will stand with the Divine World, advancing and retreating together. We all have to swear to protect the Divine World and safeguard our home!"
Gao Qixiu declared seriously.
"I will also stand with the Divine World, advancing and retreating together!"
Duan Gujin nodded promptly.
After they had conversed for a while, Gao Qixiu instructed Duan Gujin to complete some trial checkpoints in the Eternal Divine Court meant to train the elite disciples of the sect.
"Duan Gujin, I will unlock some cultivation checkpoints in the Eternal Divine Court for you. I hope you focus on cultivation during this period and reach the Demigod Realm as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, Sect Master, for your care!"
Gao Qixiu then handed Duan Gujin some Trial Tokens, instructing him to use these tokens to train at various trial checkpoints.
After receiving the trial tokens, Duan Gujin proceeded to complete these trial checkpoints one by one.
These trial checkpoints were designed for Breakthrough Realm Warriors. They were very suitable for these warriors to use the checkpoints to continuously enhance their cultivation.
After two months, he completed seven trial checkpoints, and his cultivation broke through to the Eighth Level of Breakthrough.
Meanwhile, Gao Qixiu also prepared a large number of Elixir Pills for him, which he could retrieve from the alchemy room in the Eternal Divine Court whenever he needed.
With Gao Qixiu's significant assistance, his cultivation progressed rapidly.
By the third month after returning to the Eternal Divine Court, his cultivation had broken through to the Ninth Layer of Breakthrough.
At this time, Wu Xiuqing had already fully refined that Ancient Demon Saint Treasure. It seemed to merge with her body, significantly enhancing her combat power to more than double what it was before obtaining the treasure.
The reason Wu Xiuqing spent three months merging with that Ancient Demon Saint Treasure was not due to her low cultivation, but because the array within the Ancient Demon Saint Treasure was immensely complex, requiring her to invest much time to fully integrate with it.
After merging, she could only unleash one-tenth of the treasure's power.
If she wanted to unleash all of the treasure's power, her cultivation would need to break through to the level of a Demon Immortal.
To achieve the breakthrough to the Demon Immortal level, she must first enter the Immortal Domain.
As long as she remained in the Divine World, she couldn't advance her cultivation to the Demon Immortal Realm.
For Wu Xiuqing, entering the Immortal Domain wasn't difficult.
The challenge was that her cultivation hadn't yet reached the Supreme God Ninth Layer; only after reaching that level could she enter the Immortal Domain.
Even if she entered the Immortal Domain now, she wouldn't be able to quickly elevate her cultivation there and might even face issues adjusting to the Rule Power of the Immortal Domain, hindering her cultivation.
Meanwhile, Duan Gujin decided to return to the Qiankun Continent; he wanted to see what the current situation was on the Qiankun Continent.
"I've been away from the Qiankun Continent for a long time. Now I wish to go back and see how my friends there are doing."
Duan Gujin mentioned to Elder Wang.
Elder Wang promptly agreed to Duan Gujin's request, opening the teleportation array leading to the Qiankun Continent for him.
Soon, Duan Gujin returned to the Qiankun Continent through the teleportation array.
