The alchemy master Yao Chenzi, along with the Tianfu Sect branch behind him, were reduced to ashes in the hands of Gu Changqing.
This news spread like wildfire, sweeping across the surrounding major cultivation forces at an incredible speed.
Those sects and families that had had dealings with Yao Chenzi, received his favors either openly or secretly, or even been oppressed by his tyranny, were all deeply shocked and panicked.
Yao Chenzi's last trump card, the jade talisman containing the aura of a powerful being from the upper realm, failed to cause any waves.
This completely shattered the last bit of hope in their hearts.
Gu family.
This behemoth entrenched in the restricted area, with its unfathomable background, once again made the world feel suffocated in awe.
The name of Gu Changqing is like a mountain, weighing on the hearts of all his peers and even the older generation of cultivators.
Some forces that were originally ready to try to find out the strength of the Gu family or to harm Gu Changqing, instantly stopped their activities.
They began to frantically restrain their disciples, fearing that some of them would be so foolish as to provoke this evil star.
Gu Changqing did not pay much attention to the turmoil in the outside world.
At this moment, he was in his own palace, carefully sorting out the information returned by the system.
The fusion of [Gu family's secret information] and [all memories of the alchemy master] gave him a clearer understanding of the Gu family's terrifying strength and the depth of this world.
There are also some enemies and forces lurking in the dark, whose vague outlines gradually appear in his mind.
"Interesting."
A cold arc appeared at the corner of Gu Changqing's mouth.
What really surprised him was the latest information about the ancient teleportation array.
It's more than just a gateway to a new, uncharted territory.
It is also inextricably linked to the even more powerful upper realm force behind the alchemy master - Medicine King Valley.
That teleportation array was actually one of the many secret passages for Yaowang Valley to infiltrate the lower world!
This discovery made Gu Changqing's eyes suddenly become sharp.
"There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you come to it."
He originally thought that he would wait until his strength improved a little bit before slowly dealing with those so-called forces from the upper realm.
It now seems that plans need to be brought forward.
He had to be the first to enter the new area before Yaowang Valley and other forces that might be aware of this matter could fully react.
Seize the initiative, seize the opportunity, and even completely control the infiltration channel in your own hands!
Gu Changqing informed the top management of the Gu family of his discovery and decision through special channels.
The family's response was swift and decisive.
"allow!"
"Changqing, my son, just go ahead and do it!"
"The family will send a team of elite secret guards to accompany you, at your command, to protect you!"
The attitude of the Gu family's senior management once again demonstrated their infinite respect and support for Gu Changqing.
This is not just a protection, but also a huge investment by the family in his future achievements.
A few days later.
Before setting off for the ruins of the destroyed sect, Gu Changqing used the vast resources returned by the system to make another "investment".
He tailor-made a batch of top-level elixirs and magic weapons for himself and his core followers such as Gu Fan and Shi Yi.
The aura of every follower has undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few days, and their strength has skyrocketed.
The look they gave Gu Changqing was filled with not only the awe they already had, but also fanatical admiration and absolute loyalty.
As for Ye Chen.
The former protagonist of the original book is still suppressed in the dark dungeon in the deepest part of the Gu family.
He had long lost all the strength and will to resist, like an empty shell without a soul.
For Gu Changqing, Ye Chen’s current value is more of a “luck sample” that can be observed, or an “investment target” that can be used again at some special moment in the future.
Everything is ready.
Gu Changqing was dressed in white, spotless, with a calm and deep look in his eyes.
He stood at the bow of the Jiutian Ferry.
Behind him were Gu Fan, Shi Yi and other followers with solemn auras.
Further away, dozens of figures merged into the void like ghosts. They were the elite secret guards sent by the Gu family, each of them possessing terrifying strength enough to shock the outside world.
Their target was the ancient teleportation array hidden beneath the ruins of the destroyed sect.
Shenzhou broke through the sky and traveled thousands of miles in an instant.
When they arrived at the familiar ruins again, Gu Changqing's spiritual sense had already locked onto the specific location of the teleportation array.
As he made hand seals, tremendous magical power surged in.
The ground began to tremble, and ancient and mysterious runes lit up one by one, outlining a huge formation that exuded vicissitudes of life and the power of space.
It was at the moment when the teleportation array was about to be fully activated.
The cold system prompt sound rang in Gu Changqing's mind on time.
"bite!"
"It has been detected that the host is about to enter a new unknown area!"
"This area is densely populated with Qi nodes, and its energy level far exceeds that of the current world. It contains challenges and opportunities of a higher level!"
"Host, please make all preparations!"
The corners of Gu Changqing's mouth slowly rose.
The new hunting ground is finally about to open.
