Chapter 420 - 397: Nonsense and the Army Approaches!
Moving a Great Emperor is just a minor trick.
But there is a premise.
That is, the other party does not put up any resistance.
If resistance is made, it is naturally impossible to move them easily.
Gu Qingyang was not worried about this matter.
The previous conversation has already planted a mysterious seed in Wu Peng’s heart, so how could the other party openly resist?
Meeting with Wu Peng was also to intimidate the newly risen Great Emperor Powerhouse, to prevent any inappropriate thoughts arising from his sudden increase in cultivation.
Having a Great Emperor believer come forth after all the effort, Gu Qingyang also didn’t want to eliminate him.
Now.
He has already made Wu Peng feel his unfathomable depth, as long as Wu Peng is not foolish, there is no chance of him betraying the Cyan Yang Divine Court.
Moreover.
Only by doing so, can Wu Peng follow his commands.
If it were done as it used to be, simply issuing a task, Wu Peng might not have been willing to go to the Taiyuan Realm to take charge, according to the task’s requirements.
When it’s time to display divine power, one must do so. Only then can it deepen the believers’ reverence.
If there is only a Divine Kingdom chat group and not displaying divine power, over time, these believers will not feel much reverence internally.
Therefore.
Until now.
Gu Qingyang has not canceled that prayer function.
Praying to the gods.
On some level, it deepens the believers’ reverence.
As for becoming immortal and the secrets of the starry sky, they were merely Gu Qingyang’s casual fabrications, with some information he had learned from the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor and the Ancient Demon Emperor.
Of course.
To be truthful.
Gu Qingyang is not entirely making things up.
At least regarding becoming immortal, he does have confidence.
The Divine Kingdom’s mystery is unparalleled by other Supreme Treasures, and when the Divine Kingdom really advances to the tenth tier, opening a tier ten store where opportunities for immortality appear, would be reasonable.
The only problem.
Is how to advance the Divine Kingdom to the tenth tier.
This matter.
Gu Qingyang hadn’t thought too much about it temporarily.
After all, he hasn’t even entered the ninth tier of the Divine Kingdom yet, thinking of the tenth tier is a bit of a rush.
Set a small goal.
First break through the ninth tier of the Divine Kingdom.
"It’s a pity there are too few Great Emperor Powerhouses. If there could be more ninth-tier Great Emperors, and all of them were at the Saint Apprentice level, then the contribution of faith would be very considerable!"
Gu Qingyang glanced at Wu Peng’s degree of faith. The other party only belonged to the True Believers level, not even counting as Fanatic Believers, let alone a Saint Apprentice.
Ninth-tier believers.
Can provide one billion faith each time.
For True Believers, faith refreshes once in a hundred and fifty days.
If elevated to a Saint Apprentice, faith can refresh once a day.
That is to say.
If there is a ninth-tier Saint Apprentice, they can provide thirty-six and a half billion faith in a year.
If there are a hundred of them.
That’s equivalent to three trillion six hundred and fifty billion.
Which low-tier believers cannot be compared to.
Even if all of Gu Qingyang’s followers combined, which is already trillions, they only barely provide two hundred trillion faith a year.
Therefore.
If manually cultivating ninth-tier powerhouses, Gu Qingyang must give priority to Saint Apprentices.
Saint Apprentices not only have no chance of betrayal but can also contribute much more faith than ordinary ninth-tier believers.
Put it unceremoniously.
Faith provided by a ninth-tier Saint Body is equivalent to that of over a hundred ninth-tier True Believers.
It’s just that Wu Peng achieved the ninth tier on his own. Otherwise, Gu Qingyang wouldn’t invest too many resources in him.
...
On the other side.
After leaving the Kunlun Divine Realm.
Wu Peng did not return directly to the Immortal King Sacred Land but went to the Taiyuan Realm to take charge.
Currently.
The news of a ninth-tier Great Emperor appearing in the Immortal King Sacred Land has already swept across the entire Cyan Yang Divine Court.
If the appearance of a ninth-tier powerhouse in the Taiyuan Realm was a side topic, then the appearance of one in the Cyan Yang Divine Court is an event that shakes the world.
In this era where the strongest are only at the eighth tier, the appearance of a ninth-tier powerhouse brings enormous influence, as one can imagine.
Therefore.
When Wu Peng arrived in the Taiyuan Realm, Gu Fang and other official leaders came to greet him immediately. Upon learning his purpose, they respectfully invited him into the Ancient City.
All things were arranged properly.
At the same time.
The official leaders now also felt a great increase in confidence.
In their point of view, with a ninth-tier powerhouse in charge, facing the Taiyuan Realm had given them more confidence.
The next day.
The Righteous Alliance powerhouses, led by the Immortal King Sect, gathered in a grand procession heading towards the Celestial Demon Sacred Land.
To be precise.
They were heading towards the Blood Transformation Demon Sect.
After all, the Celestial Demon Sacred Land was just a title and hadn’t truly found a base to unite all the Demonic Sect sects. Each demonic sect still guards its own sect.
Blood Transformation Demon Sect, being the strongest force in the Celestial Demon Sacred Land, naturally faces the brunt.
If the Blood Transformation Demon Sect could be defeated, and the Blood Transformation Ancestor slain, then the remaining forces in the Celestial Demon Sacred Land would be insignificant.
The Righteous Dao’s movements were vast.
Naturally, it couldn’t keep the ears and eyes of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect hidden.
At the first moment.
The Blood Transformation Ancestor mobilized all forces in the Celestial Demon Sacred Land to gather together, ready to fight decisively with all the Righteous Dao sects.
In response.
Although other sects were reluctant, they could only bravely send many powerhouses there.
Anyone with eyes could see that this battle no longer only concerned the survival of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect but also the survival of the entire Demon Dao.
If they allowed the Righteous Alliance to destroy the Blood Transformation Demon Sect, they certainly would not stop there, and the next to be destroyed would be them.
The proverb goes, "if the lips die, the teeth will suffer."
It’s something anyone can understand.
From the moment the Righteous Alliance appeared, all demonic sects were passively bonded together.
Blood Transformation Demon Sect.
The main hall.
The Blood Transformation Ancestor, clad in a Blood Robe, sat at the main seat, beneath him were top powerhouses of various demonic sects.
Anyone qualified to sit here was at least at the Void Refining stage.
Many people directed their gaze at the Blood Transformation Ancestor, with eyes full of shock, curiosity, and more reverence.
He was the first Mahayana stage powerhouse of this era.
To many cultivators, the Mahayana stage was merely a realm that existed in legend. Although they had heard of it, they had never actually seen a Mahayana stage cultivator in person.
Now.
Truly seeing a Mahayana stage powerhouse.
These cultivators now truly understood how terrifying the Mahayana stage was.
Even with the Blood Transformation Ancestor sitting motionlessly at the main seat, the occasional leaking aura seemed to make the space tremble, making all cultivators feel as if an invisible mountain was pressing over their heads, leaving them breathless.
Even top Tribulation Stage powerhouses from various top demonic sects are now horrified in expression.
Further.
Some are even exceedingly exuberant internally.
This is the might of the Mahayana stage.
Compared to the Tribulation Stage, the Mahayana Stage is a completely different concept.
No doubt, if the Blood Transformation Ancestor decided to attack them, he could probably suppress all of them with just a single move.
"The Righteous Alliance is coming aggressively, and the one from Immortal King Sect has also reached the Mahayana. The Righteous army will arrive shortly. Does the Saint Master have any tactics?"
The speaker was Shangguan Ming.
The others upon hearing this, also cannot help but look grave.
The Blood Transformation Ancestor’s expression was indifferent, his eyes seemed to glow with a blood light: "Soldiers coming, use generals to block, water coming, use earth to cover. Why need tactics? They can try all they want to destroy our Celestial Demon Sacred Land.
Even if that old one from the Immortal King Sect reached the Mahayana, so what? I’ll let them understand that even within Mahayana there are differences.
I have achieved the Mahayana and am destined to be invincible under the heavens. Now is the perfect moment to use the blood of the Immortal King Sect’s Mahayana to further advance my cultivation and strive for the Immortal Realm!"
The words of the Blood Transformation Ancestor were filled with confidence, completely dismissing the Righteous Alliance. His confidence seemed to influence the others as well.
Any slight tension that might have arisen from the imminent arrival of the Righteous Alliance’s army faded into nothingness.
