Free Web NovelChapter 625: Chapter 596: Three Thousand Guests of the Kunlun Divine Realm
"It’s over!"
Gu Qingyang’s Divine Thought withdrew from the Divine Kingdom simulation. Eight thousand years of bitter cultivation had once again transformed his combat power; even if a perfection-stage sixteenth-order powerhouse stood before him, he could smash them to death with a single punch.
This.
Was the strength of the Chaos Atlas.
By merging the power of the thirty-six Chaos Demon Gods, Gu Qingyang’s combat power had once again undergone a qualitative leap.
...
Name: Gu Qingyang
Essence: Cyan Yang Divine Realm (Sixth Order)
Combat Power: Sixteenth Order Perfection
Divine Kingdom: Fifteenth Order (920 Zi / 100000 Zi)
Heavenly Dao Origin: 1.56 trillion
...
Eight thousand years.
Gu Qingyang had not merely comprehended the Chaos Atlas; his Divine Kingdom had long since advanced to the fifteenth order, and the Faith units needed for the subsequent advancement to the sixteenth order had strikingly transformed from Gai to Zi.
Ten thousand Gai are equivalent to one Zi.
Now.
To advance the Divine Kingdom to the sixteenth order, the required Faith Power was one hundred thousand Zi.
And the Faith Power that the Cyan Yang Divine Court could provide each year had also broken through from three thousand Gai to the level of five thousand Gai; deducting daily needs, there was roughly about one thousand five hundred Gai left.
At this rate, the sixteenth-order Divine Kingdom would require roughly one hundred thousand years of accumulation.
One hundred thousand years is not particularly long, but it is by no means short.
Gu Qingyang didn’t feel much about it.
It was just that after he comprehended the Chaos Atlas, his combat power was stuck at sixteenth-order perfection, but judging from his instant kill of Taichu, his combat strength should be truly top-tier even among sixteenth-order perfection.
If one had to draw a distinction, calling him half-step seventeenth order would be no exaggeration.
"Half-step seventeenth order is still just half a step; without truly stepping into the seventeenth order, one can never contend against a seventeenth-order powerhouse!"
This point.
Gu Qingyang had already experienced deeply back when he was at the fifteenth order.
Even if he could easily slaughter a perfection-stage fifteenth-order powerhouse like the Nine Luminaries Immortal Emperor, before a sixteenth-order powerhouse he was still as small and fragile as an ant.
This was the difference of a leap in order.
The gap between the sixteenth and fifteenth orders was already like this; one could easily imagine that if a seventeenth order faced a sixteenth order, the result would inevitably be the same.
Right now.
If he wanted his own combat power to break through to the seventeenth order.
There were only two methods before Gu Qingyang.
The first.
Was to promote the Cyan Yang Divine Realm.
The second.
Was to continue comprehending the Dao within the Hongmeng Jade Disc himself, allowing the Chaos Atlas to record more Origin Power of Chaos Demon Gods.
The latter needed no further explanation.
The Origin of Chaos Demon Gods was not easy to comprehend.
Don’t be fooled by how fast Gu Qingyang seemed to be comprehending the Origins of the Chaos Demon Gods now; he had only started from the easiest ones.
From initially taking a hundred years to comprehend the Origin of one Chaos Demon God, to later barely managing to comprehend one Origin after several hundred years, it was evident that the Origins of Chaos Demon Gods varied widely in difficulty.
Out of the thirty thousand years.
Only about three thousand years remained now.
Within these three thousand years.
Even if Gu Qingyang put his full effort into comprehension, it would be difficult to comprehend many more Chaos Demon God Origins.
More importantly.
Even if he comprehended a few more Chaos Demon God Origins, it was very likely that it still wouldn’t allow his own strength to undergo a qualitative leap.
Therefore.
Placed before him.
There was only one method for now.
And that was to raise the order of the Cyan Yang Divine Realm.
Over these eight thousand years, the development of the Cyan Yang Divine Realm was somewhat disappointing to Gu Qingyang. After the preaching sessions, and with the many factors related to the Celestial List rankings, the number of thirteenth-order powerhouses had indeed increased significantly.
At present, the number of thirteenth-order cultivators had already surpassed one hundred thousand.
The number of twelfth-order cultivators had even stepped into thirty million.
However.
As for fourteenth-order powerhouses, up to now there wasn’t a single one.
There was no helping it.
The difficulty of breaking through from the thirteenth to the fourteenth order had risen in a straight line; even a stunning genius like the Cyan Emperor remained stuck at thirteenth-order perfection, never managing to break that critical step.
If even top-tier prodigies were like this, there was no need to mention others.
Although Gu Qingyang had long anticipated this situation, he still couldn’t help but feel helpless when he actually saw it.
With things having reached this point.
Gu Qingyang could only consume Faith Power on his own initiative to force some cultivators to break through.
Immediately.
All upper-grade thirteenth-order and perfection-stage thirteenth-order cultivators received Gu Qingyang’s message, summoning them to the Kunlun Divine Realm.
The crowd was stunned for a moment upon receiving the news, then reacted and hurried toward the Kunlun Divine Realm.
Within just a few days.
All cultivators had gathered here.
"The Kunlun Divine Realm truly lives up to its name as the number one Sacred Land of the Cyan Yang Divine Realm; the cultivation environment here is completely unmatched by any other place!"
Some cultivators, feeling the dense Immortal Qi within the Kunlun Divine Realm, revealed looks of emotion on their faces.
The density of Immortal Qi here was completely incomparable to other places.
More importantly.
This was the residence of the Divine Emperor.
The Divine Tree of the Heavenly Dao stood towering here, the aura of Dao Rules spreading on its own; staying here made even comprehending the Heaven and Earth Dao much easier.
When they came before the Divine Tree, Gu Qingyang also manifested a figure and walked out.
"We pay our respects to the Divine Emperor!"
Many cultivators, led by the Cyan Emperor, all bowed deeply.
Gu Qingyang nodded slightly, his expression calm. "The calamity of quantity will open in three thousand years; you should all be aware of this."
Upon hearing this.
Their expressions did not change much.
They had long been mentally prepared for the calamity of quantity opening in three thousand years.
Seeing the changes in their expressions, Gu Qingyang continued, "In the Upper Realm’s Three Thousand Cosmos, powerhouses are as numerous as the clouds. The foundations of the Cyan Yang Divine Realm are ultimately too shallow; when the calamity of quantity arrives, the Lower Realm will find it hard to contend with the Upper Realm."
At this point.
Gu Qingyang paused for a moment, then said, "Therefore, this Emperor has decided to summon you here and, with the power of the Divine Kingdom, help you raise your cultivation as much as possible within the next three thousand years.
As for Realm-Breaking Pills and the Elixirs and Spirit Medicines needed for cultivation, this Emperor will provide them all for you. The Contribution Points required can temporarily be owed, so long as you repay them within a million years."
As soon as these words fell.
Everyone’s spirits were lifted.
Realm-Breaking Pills!
Elixirs and Spirit Medicines needed for cultivation!
At their level, the things required for cultivation were all of extremely high order; even if exchanged from the Divine Kingdom’s store, they would cost at least a starting price of a thousand trillion Contribution Points.
Now that Gu Qingyang was directly providing them, it was naturally an excellent thing.
Although they were not being given for free but had to be repaid within a million years, such a long time was more than enough for them to slowly pay it back.
To be blunt.
If they were to fall one day, they might not even need to repay the Contribution Points they owed.
So.
From any angle, this was an entirely profitable deal.
The changes in everyone’s expressions naturally could not escape Gu Qingyang’s eyes.
He had originally intended to supply them for free, but after some thought he chose not to; instead, he set a million-year time limit as a nominal reason to push everyone to raise their strength as quickly as possible in a short time.
The cultivators who had come to the Cyan Yang Divine Realm this time numbered only about three thousand at most.
Now Gu Qingyang still had nine hundred and twenty Zi of Faith Power remaining, equivalent to ninety-two billion trillion, which was more than enough.
