Chapter 544: Chapter 268: For Several Days in a Row, Returning to Central State_2

Dongfang Mingyue and Yuan Youbai, if they both reached the 500 mark, he could add another one hundred and two.

Only lacking seven in Root Bone, he would be able to break through the two thousand mark.

After a brief moment of contemplation, he directly started to exchange for Elixirs.

[Exchange: Sixth-rank Root Bone Pill (+5) two pieces, Sixth-rank Comprehension Pill (+5) two pieces, Elixirs have been issued to System Space.]

[Total Attribute Points Consumed: Forty million.]

[Host Remaining Attribute Points: One hundred sixty-six million, six hundred thirty-three thousand.]

Seeing that such a small exchange of Elixirs cost him forty million Attribute Points, even Gu Changge couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pain.

Once reaching Saint Body Talent, wanting to continue to improve really is expensive!

That is, he could share the enhancement effect with his Daoist Couple, otherwise with his current Root Bone and Comprehension values, wanting a direct improvement would in future need even more zeros added!

With a flip of his hand, he took out the wooden box containing the Elixirs.

Apart from the just-exchanged Root Bone Pills and Comprehension Pills, there were also Void Refinement Realm Sudden Enlightenment Pills rewarded by the system each time they made a breakthrough.

"You must use up these Sudden Enlightenment Pills after I leave, remember to use them all during this Closed-door Cultivation."

"Once you both break through the Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm, these Elixirs will no longer be effective."

After handing over the Elixirs to them, he also seriously reminded them.

"Ah?"

"Understood!"

Wang Yue was somewhat surprised but nodded continuously to indicate that she had taken note.

"Mm..."

Liu Qingqing silently nodded her head, not expecting that her husband’s magical Elixirs, which could grant Sudden Enlightenment, would have such a limitation in Realm.

However, for her to break through to the Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm, she would still need to undergo Closed-door Cultivation for half a month to a month, which was completely ample time to use up these Elixirs.

After some idle chatter, Gu Changge didn’t show any intention to stay at the Gu Family any longer, and under the escort of everyone, he reached outside the main city.

"I’m off."

"There’s no need for such expressions, I’ll be back soon enough."

Gu Changge, seeing the reluctant looks of his wives and the stern expressions of the Gu Family Elders, couldn’t help but smile lightly and say.

Without waiting for them to speak, he already turned his back, waved his hand, and with one step, disappeared on the spot.

"Be careful in everything, husband, in the Central State."

Liu Qingqing couldn’t help stepping forward and whispered.

Wang Yue took Qingqing’s arm and held it, saying nothing.

"Farewell, Young Master!"

The Gu Family Elders and the disciples who had chased after him all bowed in unison, with the younger generation bowing deeply and calling out in a loud voice.

The cultivators in the city, witnessing this scene, showed envious looks.

This Young Master Gu was truly a legend of the Northern Domain!

Defying the heavens and changing fate, he had now become an existence unreachable by all!

...

Imperial City.

The Emperor of the Northern Domain listened to the reports from his subordinates and couldn’t help but sigh.

"Sage Realm, huh..."

"A Sage Realm in his twenties?"

"Or rather, a Sage Realm that had been cultivating for less than ten years..."

"With such a monster emerging from the Northern Domain, what can I do? This is the will of heaven, the will of heaven..."

The Northern Domain Emperor had completely lost his spirit.

Uniting the Northern Domain?

Commanding the four corners?

Don’t joke...

Before such a monster, he had no room to resist at all. He believed it wouldn’t be long before his throne ceased to exist.

The Northern Domain Emperor gently stroked the armrest of his dragon throne, revealing a bitter smile.

Now the Gu Family is at the peak of its power, not only is Gu Changge becoming even more defiant of heaven, but that Ancestor of the Gu Family has also broken through to the True Monarch Realm.

The Northern Domain...

It had changed, no longer led by the Northern Domain Royal Family, who could once contend against the Gu Family and the Heavenly Cold Sect by themselves.

The Gu Family now could easily topple both the Heavenly Cold Sect and the Royal Family.

If the Northern Domain Royal Family had the capital the Gu Family had now, he would have realized the dream of unifying everything long ago!

...

[Duanbei City]

Gu Kuang, upon seeing the message from his family, couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

"As expected of my great-grandson, how long has it been since we last met?"

"He has already broken through to the Sage Realm?"

"He’s far stronger than this old man!"

"Tsk, tsk, it seems I might not have to prepare these lower Realm Demon Beasts for my great-grandson in the future; if he really needs it, with his current strength, entering No Master Land seems more appropriate."

"This old man is becoming more and more useless!"

"But once the Ancestor gives the word, I should also head to the Central State..."

Tucking away the Communication Jade Token, Gu Kuang took several big gulps from his Wine Gourd, his face slightly flushed, it was unclear whether it was the effect of the alcohol or the excitement from the news of his great-grandson.

...

On the other side, Gu Changge traveled without rest at a steady pace.

After a day and a night, he finally returned from the Northern Domain to the mountain gate of the Central State Sword Sect.

"With my current realm, it took me a whole day and night just to rush back here, yet Teacher needed less than fifteen minutes..."

"The gap is indeed quite large."

"The Land Immortal Realm, after all, does carry the ’immortal’ character, and is no longer of the same kind as a cultivator."

Gu Changge recalled the sensation when his teacher had taken him through the void straight to the Northern Domain, and he couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

"Greetings, Saint Gu!"

At the mountain gate, the disciples, upon seeing his figure, promptly clasped their hands and bowed deeply in salute.

Even the Elder at the Sage Realm in charge of guarding that day hurriedly came forward to greet him with a clasped fist, "Saint Heir."

"I didn’t see the Saint Heir leave before; how come you have returned from outside?"

The Elder asked curiously.

He was in charge of the mountain gate for the month and hadn’t seen Gu Changge leaving.

"Teacher took me back to the Northern Domain without passing through the mountain gate."

Gu Changge replied with a light chuckle and clasped fist.

"I see..."

"I was being nosy, please, Saint Heir!"

The Elder nodded slightly and quickly stepped aside, gesturing an invitation.

The disciples also stood aside in rows, sending Gu Changge into the mountain gate with eyes full of reverence.

Now, as he re-entered the gate of the Sword Sect, he no longer felt the same shock as the first time.

Before long, he was back in the key area of Sword Mountain.

However, he didn’t head to his own dwelling straight away, but instead went deeper into the core area of Sword Mountain.

Soon, he saw a figure sitting cross-legged, meditating with eyes closed.

"Teacher." Gu Changge stepped forward and bowed with clasped hands.

"Hmm, you’re back?"

"Did you encounter any trouble?"

"Forget it, it’s unlikely that you would’ve had any trouble; with your strength now, you could turn the Northern Domain upside down. Who could possibly trouble you..."

Ye Qing slowly opened his eyes and asked casually.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head, feeling that he had said something unnecessary.

"Tell me..."

"What’s the situation with that young girl?"

"If I’m not mistaken, her Root Bone talent has already surpassed the Extreme Dao Body..."

"It’s of the same Saint Body Talent as yours!"

"No, that’s not it either. Compared to you... she still has a long way to go."

"With your Root Bone, if someone were to chop off one of your arms, they could refine it into a Heavenly Rank Magical Treasure without much assistance!"

"It’s as if you are a walking magical treasure..."

Back in the Northern Domain, amidst many onlookers, he hadn’t asked further, but now that Gu Changge had returned, his curiosity got the better of him.

He knew the effects of the Elixir, having taken one himself.

The Elixir was indeed remarkable, not causing any resistance and continuing to enhance Root Bone.

But even so, to forge a Saint Body Talent, how many Elixirs would it take?

Taking himself as an example, based on the Elixirs that Gu Changge gave him before, it would take at least ten thousand to forge a Saint Body Talent!

Could it be that Gu Changge had prepared tens of thousands of Elixirs of similar quality for his wife as well?

"This..."

"Actually, nothing else was used. My wife just took the same kind of Elixir as I did."

"However, seemingly due to my connection with her, the effect of refining the Elixir is more than ten times better for them than it is for others."

Gu Changge gave a wry smile, showing a face that didn’t seem to understand the reason himself.

"Those related to you?"

"Is the Gu Family Ancestor included among them?"

Ye Qing was stunned for a moment and asked with a frown.

"She is not included; only a few of my wives have this special effect."

Gu Changge shook his head and spoke honestly.

"..."

"It seems to be related to Dual Cultivation."

"Enough, your constitution is too special; even I can’t see through it."

"The intricate and ancient Inscriptions above your Root Bone cannot be comprehended by the likes of me."

"Perhaps it’s related to that."

"You may go. I will not speak of this matter to others."

"When you plan to bring them to Central State in the future, you can just let them join the Sword Sect."

Ye Qing nodded slightly, guessing the probable cause in his heart. Seeing as even the Gu Family Ancestor could not enjoy this tenfold enhancement, it was clear that it was not achieved through Bloodline.

And since all four of his wives had this special effect, the cause became obvious—it was due to Dual Cultivation on their Wedding Night.
