Chapter 419 - 397: Nonsense and the Army Approaches!
"Do you know why this Emperor sought you today?"
Gu Qingyang shifted the topic.
Wu Peng pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "I ask the Divine Emperor to enlighten me."
"Currently, this Emperor is dealing with the Heavenly Dao of the Two Realms, and it is inconvenient to act openly. Now that Taiyuan Realm has two Ninth Rank powerhouses, the Cyan Yang Divine Court also requires a Ninth Rank presence to stabilize the situation.
However, unless it’s a critical moment, you must not act rashly.
After all, there are still some hidden Mahayana elites in Taiyuan Realm. These Ninth Rank Mahayana powerhouses are in the process of reincarnation and will not act rashly unless pushed to a dead end.
If they are driven to desperation, they will resist at all costs, and at that point, these hidden Mahayana elites can restore their former peak strength.
If this Emperor could be free to act, suppressing these hidden Mahayana elites would naturally be no problem. But now, the focus needs to be on deterrence, and your presence can provide the Divine Court with the leverage to deter Taiyuan Realm on the surface.
Of course, this Emperor will not let you work in vain. Once this Emperor’s strength recovers somewhat, the Divine Kingdom Store will promote to Ninth Rank, at which point this Emperor will allow you to choose any treasure of Ninth Rank’s lower grade or below in the store."
Gu Qingyang presented a tremendous temptation that once again shook Wu Peng’s heart.
The Ninth Rank Divine Kingdom Store!
When the Divine Kingdom Store was promoted to the eighth rank, he had wondered if one day the store could advance further, promoting to the Ninth Rank.
But this idea was something Wu Peng was not entirely confident about.
Ninth Rank.
It is related to the Great Emperor level.
Like the eighth rank which has Realm-Breaking Pills that can help others advance to Quasi-Emperor, the Ninth Rank also has Realm-Breaking Pills, which suggests the possibility of helping others advance to the Great Emperor Realm.
Thinking of this.
Wu Peng also took a deep breath in his heart.
If it is indeed possible to help a Quasi-Emperor advance to a Great Emperor, it means that the Immortal King Sacred Land can potentially produce another Great Emperor powerhouse.
However.
After being promoted to a Great Emperor, Wu Peng also understands that the breakthrough from Quasi-Emperor to Great Emperor is not just a matter of accumulation but requires comprehending one’s own Dao and condensing the Great Emperor Dao Fruit.
It is unlikely that a Realm-Breaking Pill alone could allow a cultivator to directly become a Great Emperor.
The Divine Kingdom Store is mysterious.
Wu Peng can’t easily presume anything.
But no matter what, Gu Qingyang’s words have completely moved Wu Peng’s heart.
At worst.
He could exchange for a Ninth Rank Supreme Treasure.
Such a Supreme Treasure.
Is equivalent to an Emperor’s Soldier.
Until now, the Immortal King Sacred Land only has one Emperor’s Soldier, which is the bronze Divine Mace that transformed along with Wu Peng when he became enlightened.
This mace was elevated to an Emperor’s Soldier.
Wu Peng also named it the Immortal King’s Mace.
Then.
Gu Qingyang nonchalantly said, "Now that you’ve become a Great Emperor, you must be aware of the existence of the Path to Immortality, right?"
"Indeed!"
Upon hearing the phrase Path to Immortality, Wu Peng’s expression involuntarily turned solemn.
He nodded and said solemnly, "As the Divine Emperor said, when I ascended to the Great Emperor, I sensed a mysterious guide. If I wish, I can use the Great Emperor Dao Fruit to open the entrance to the Path to Immortality.
However, every Great Emperor throughout history who has set foot on the Path to Immortality has perished. Since I have just achieved the status of the Great Emperor and my foundation is still shallow, I am not confident in entering the Path to Immortality at this time."
At this point.
Wu Peng had another thought he didn’t express.
The Divine Kingdom chat group is mysterious, and the Divine Kingdom Store is even more unfathomable. He is curious to see if the store might provide an opportunity to become immortal in the future.
But as his thoughts reached this point, Wu Peng couldn’t help but ask directly.
So.
He cautiously inquired, "May I ask the Divine Emperor if there might be immortal opportunities in the Divine Kingdom Store in the future?"
"As for becoming immortal, once the Divine Kingdom Store promotes to the tenth rank, there will naturally be immortal opportunities."
Gu Qingyang’s simple reply seemed increasingly profound in Wu Peng’s eyes.
Indeed.
The Divine Kingdom Store does hold immortal opportunities.
Thinking of this, Wu Peng grew even more respectful and awed by Gu Qingyang.
If the Divine Kingdom Store has immortal opportunities, then the creator of this store must be immeasurably profound.
Observing Wu Peng’s demeanor, Gu Qingyang said, "Some matters are beyond your current understanding. Ninth Rank is the pinnacle for now, but it is only the current pinnacle.
In the past, there were true immortals in the starry sky.
But those are things of the past. It’s better not to discuss them now. If there’s nothing else, you should leave first!"
Having said that, Gu Qingyang straightforwardly issued an order to leave.
In response.
Wu Peng dared not ask any further questions and could only suppress his inner shock, then rise to take his leave.
Just as he was wondering how to depart, a mysterious force enveloped him, and in the next instant, Wu Peng found himself outside the Kunlun Divine Realm.
Seeing this method.
Wu Peng sighed inwardly once more.
Even having achieved the Dao as a Great Emperor, he still had no way to resist Gu Qingyang’s method of spatial transference.
Such techniques.
Are simply unfathomable.
"Barring any unexpected issues, Wu Peng shouldn’t have any hidden dangers. Once the Divine Kingdom Store advances to the Ninth Rank, the strength of the Cyan Yang Divine Court will surge, and the so-called Divine Eye Empire threat will be minimized."
Inside the Kunlun Divine Realm, Gu Qingyang watched the departing Wu Peng with a calm expression.
The transference technique he just used wasn’t entirely his own power, but mostly borrowed from the rules of heaven and earth.
As the Heavenly Dao’s Divine Tree.
Gu Qingyang, in the realm of Cyan Yang, is the actual heaven.
The mysteries of the rules of heaven and earth are within his control.
