One month later.

Inside Prince Gu’s Mansion.

While enjoying the massage from the maid, Gu Qingfeng was checking the results of his hard practice for a month.

First of all, his cultivation had already reached the Gangqi realm!

It is known that the quality of internal energy is comparable to that of a master, and the quality of true energy is comparable to that of a dragon, so it is not difficult to imagine the quality of the gang energy.

Although Gu Qingfeng had never seen a god take action, he estimated that even if his internal energy could not match the power of a god, it would not be far behind.

In order to reach the Gangqi realm, even with the help of demons in his practice, it took Gu Qingfeng a full month. In fact, it only took him three days to reach the peak of the Zhenqi realm, and the remaining twenty-seven days were all used to break through the bottleneck.

The qualitative change from true Qi to Gang Qi is too difficult.

Even though Gu Qingfeng killed all the monsters in the Demon Suppression Tower one after another, it still took him 27 days to break through.

This shows how powerful the internal Qi is.

It's a pity that after reaching the first level of Gangqi, it is difficult to make further progress. Even a demon as strong as the Evil Buddha, who has reached the eighth level of Dragon Transformation, can only make a slight improvement every time he attacks with all his strength, and is still a long way from the second level.

From this point of view, I can only rely on the demons in the divine realm to practice in the future.

In addition to the improvement in his cultivation, Gu Qingfeng's physical strength has also improved a lot. His power and speed are already on par with the seventh level of Dragon Transformation, but his Black Dragon Indestructible Body has still not been promoted and is still lingering at a high level.

Although there are no powerful monsters in the Demon-Suppressing Tower, the accumulation of these monsters still adds a lot of defense.

And he also gained a lot of additional abilities.

Flesh and blood transformation technique, phantom demon pupil, control of the five elements, and some miscellaneous small skills.

Gu Qingfeng obtained the flesh and blood transformation technique from a White Bone Demon who was at the Grandmaster level. The White Bone Demon was proficient in the art of transformation and could change from bones into various kinds of living people, and they were difficult to distinguish.

Because its changes are changes in flesh and blood, not an illusion. It can control the flesh and blood and make it grow into various shapes, which is equivalent to a real person!

This method is extremely powerful. It can truly change the flesh and blood. Even a powerful god would find it difficult to see through it without spying on the soul.

The Phantom Demon Pupil was obtained from a painting monster. The painting monster has no attack power and relies entirely on the painting realm to hurt people. Its attainments in illusion techniques should not be underestimated.

As for the ability of the Phantom Demon Eye, it is roughly equivalent to an enhanced version of the pupil technique and hallucination.

In the past, when Gu Qingfeng used illusion, he could directly control those below the Dragon Transformation Realm, but when facing a powerful Dragon Transformation Realm, he could at most make them lose their minds for a moment. Now that he has the Phantom Demon Eye, even ordinary Dragon Transformation Realm cannot escape his control.

Rather than saying that controlling the five elements is one ability, it is more accurate to say that it is a combination of five abilities.

Gu Qingfeng fought against monsters with different five elements for dozens of times, and gained the abilities to control water, earth, gold, and wood.

The ability to control fire does not need to be brushed, it has already evolved into the body of a fire god.

That is to say, after gathering the five elements attributes, these skills were integrated and became the control of the five elements, allowing one to freely manipulate gold, wood, water, fire and earth.

As for the remaining miscellaneous small skills, they are like chicken ribs and not worth mentioning.

During this month, Gu Qingfeng's strength could be said to have skyrocketed again. He estimated that except for the human race strongmen at the peak of Dragon Transformation, no one would be his opponent. Perhaps he could give it a try at the peak of Dragon Transformation.

Such great progress should be thanked to the demons in the Demon Suppression Tower. They have made indelible contributions to the enhancement of Gu Qingfeng's strength.

The most intuitive manifestation is that the number of monsters in the Monster Suppression Tower has been reduced by half.

Some died of exhaustion, some committed suicide because they could not bear the torture, and some could not endure this hellish life and died while escaping from prison. Of course, the majority of deaths were caused by the hedgehog spirit.

Ultimately it's all the hedgehog's fault. It provided the talent for counter-injury, and as a result a large number of monsters were killed by the counter-injury.

It is also worth mentioning that after a month of training by Gu Qingfeng, the hedgehog spirit ate the corpses of dead demons every day, and its strength skyrocketed, reaching the second level of dragon transformation. Its talent for counterattack was also enhanced, and it can now counterattack 20% of the damage.

Please note that counter-injury is not damage reduction. The damage you should suffer will still occur, but the attacker will also suffer 20% damage. This is like the action of force is mutual. When you punch someone, the other person is injured, but your fist will also be affected by the reaction force. The effect of counter-injury is just to increase this reaction force.

In addition to his own improvement, the demon army under Gu Qingfeng's command was also greatly strengthened.

All the demons in the Demon-Suppressing Tower swore to recognize their master, and those who refused would be killed.

In addition, Qiu Qianren and Taoist Huo Ya have not been idle in the past month. They have robbed no less than a dozen demon prisons and brought in many monsters.

Gu Qingfeng counted carefully and found that the army of demons under his command had reached 50,000.

The other dimension naturally cannot accommodate so many monsters, but fortunately, there are a few monsters among these monsters that have the Yin Realm.

Gu Qingfeng directly shattered their Yin Realm and used it to expand the alien space, which was barely enough to accommodate 50,000 demons.

The disarmament is still in progress. Some weak demons are ruthlessly eliminated and swallowed by powerful demons.

Gu Qingfeng’s goal is to get rid of demons below the True Qi realm, as they are a waste of air if they are alive.

After checking the results of his practice, Gu Qingfeng suddenly felt confused and empty, because he suddenly found that he seemed to have nothing to do.

Basically, all the monsters that can be killed have been killed, and no stronger monsters can be found. The improvement of strength has reached a bottleneck, but the sense of crisis in my heart has not been alleviated at all. Instead, it has increased with the passage of time.

I have killed so many monsters but still haven’t become a god. What should I do?

It seems I have to find an opportunity to go out.

"Okay, stop pressing it. Go and inform them that I will go out for lunch today."

Gu Qingfeng, who was somewhat upset, gave the order.

He decided to go out and relax.

After a month of hard training, he had not had a good time in the imperial capital. He went between the palace and the Demon-Suppressing Division every day. Apart from that, he went to Yihongyuan, Zuishenglou, Ningxiang Pavilion, Hongchen Pavilion, Wenqingju and Zuiyuexuan a few times.

Life is really boring.

A moment later, the royal guard of honor set off side by side and headed straight for Tianranju, the largest restaurant in the imperial capital.

Two teams of guards led the way, and behind them were six tall horses pulling a luxurious sedan chair of several dozen square meters, and behind the sedan chair were more than a dozen servants following and serving.

"Get out of the way! Everyone, get out of the way!"

When the pedestrians on the street saw this scene and this style, they ran away without waiting for the guards to drive them away, for fear of offending the important person.

They ran very skillfully. This was the good thing about being under the emperor's feet: there was always a chance to exercise.

After Gu Qingfeng's motorcade passed by, pedestrians returned to the center from both sides of the road, gathered in groups of three or five, and talked a lot.

"Whose car is this? Why is it so grand and luxurious?"

"The emperor is driven by six horses. The nobleman just now was pulled by six horses in a sedan chair. Could it be His Majesty the Emperor?"

"Wrong, wrong. If it were the emperor, this street would have been blocked by the imperial guards long ago."

"Hiss! He is not the emperor, but he dares to use a sedan chair pulled by six horses. Could it be... the King of Yi Zi Bi Jian!?"
