Chapter 3813 The Lord of the Great Dao’s Backup Plan

The Burial Coffin Cracks!

He is injured!

Gu Qingfeng roars angrily, instantly burning the power of his life essence, spitting out a mouthful of blood onto the Burial Coffin, which instantly merges into the coffin.

The aura of this supreme treasure suddenly surges, and Gu Qingfeng lifts the Burial Coffin and fiercely suppresses the ninth illusory figure.

This attack…

Gu Qingfeng has exhausted all his strength.

The ninth illusory figure’s face is blurred, but it still throws out a punch, as if it can support the sky with one hand, relying on its own strength to withstand the suppressive force of the Burial Coffin.

Seeing this, Gu Qingfeng spits out another mouthful of life essence, directly merging into the Burial Coffin.

“Break for me!!”

In an instant.

The power of the Burial Coffin surges.

Under the terrifying power of suppression, the arm of the ninth illusory figure explodes, and then the lid of the Burial Coffin is lifted, and endless darkness surges out from inside, directly swallowing the illusory figure.

The next moment.

The coffin lid closed.

The massive bronze coffin trembled violently, its terrifying Daoist aura crumbling and collapsing, as if it could not be suppressed. Gu Qingfeng,

of

course, suppressed it with all his might. He had already reached the point of exhausting everything; if he could not overcome the Heavenly Tribulation, he would surely perish.

Fortunately—

the ninth illusory figure was ultimately just a projection of power evolved from the Heavenly Dao, and as time passed, it could no longer withstand the power of the Burial Coffin.

After an unknown amount of time, the Burial Coffin quieted down.

At the same time, the tribulation clouds in the void suddenly dispersed.

A golden light descended and entered Gu Qingfeng’s body, and at the same time, an aura belonging to an Immortal Emperor swept across all directions.

“Congratulations, Elder Gu, on overcoming the Eternal Heavenly Tribulation and attaining the Dao of Immortal Emperor!”

In Thunder Valley, Yang Daoxu appeared, a smile on his face, with a hint of barely perceptible shock in his eyes.

The Eternal Heavenly Tribulation!

He had not expected that Gu Qingfeng could attract such a Heavenly Tribulation and even overcome it.

Despite his current disheveled appearance and blood-stained robes, Gu Qingfeng’s powerful aura posed a strong threat even to Yang Daoxu, the Immortal Emperor who had created the Four Directions and Five Immortal Universes.

Undoubtedly,

from the moment Gu Qingfeng survived the Ancient Heavenly Tribulation, he was destined to be different from ordinary cultivators.

Throughout the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, he could be considered a true prodigy .

This

wasn’t just empty praise; it was a genuine existence.

To put it bluntly, having survived such a tribulation, he might even have the qualifications to compete for the Immortal Emperor’s Stele in the future.

Of course,

having the qualifications is one thing, but actually being able to obtain the opportunity to obtain the Immortal Emperor’s Stele is another.

Most cultivators don’t even have that qualification.

Shortly after Yang Daoxu’s arrival, other cultivators also entered Thunder Valley to congratulate Gu Qingfeng.

“Congratulations Elder Gu on attaining the Immortal Emperor realm!”

“Having survived the Eternal Heavenly Tribulation, it seems our sect will have another top-tier expert!”

“I recently obtained a tael of ninth-grade immortal tea; Elder Gu, if you have time sometime, please taste it!”

“Elder Gu—”

Many cultivators were enthusiastic, their words to Gu Qingfeng polite and even somewhat conciliatory.

If it were the old Gu Qingfeng, he wouldn’t have deserved such treatment.

Even if he was the sect leader’s personal disciple, so what?

His aptitude was insufficient. At most, he

could only reach the Immortal Emperor realm.

But ordinary Immortal Emperors have limited growth potential; within the Seven Profound Dao Sect today, there are quite a few cultivators qualified to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm. But now it’s different. Gu Qingfeng has survived the Eternal Heavenly Tribulation, and in the future, he might even have the possibility of reaching the Half-Saint realm.   Furthermore

, given his status as the sect leader’s personal disciple, they naturally had to give him ample face.   Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly, offering polite words, before changing the subject.   ”I have just survived the Heavenly Tribulation, and my injuries have not yet healed. I still need to go into seclusion for a while, so I will take my leave now!”   After saying this   , he took a step and his figure disappeared into Thunder Valley.   The other cultivators exchanged glances and also left.   …   Wangxian Peak.   Inside a celestial mansion, Gu Qingfeng sat cross-legged, swallowing a prepared elixir. A surge of vitality swept over his body, and all his injuries were slowly healing.   A moment later.   The elixir’s power was exhausted.   Gu Qingfeng opened his eyes and shook his head slightly: “It will take quite some time for the consumed essence and blood to fully recover. The Ancient Heavenly Tribulation is indeed extraordinary. If it weren’t for the half-saint’s corpse as a foundation, allowing the Burial Coffin to advance to the ranks of half-step Emperor Immortal Artifacts, this tribulation would have ended in death!”   Thinking of the existence of the Ancient Immortal Emperor Tribulation, Gu Qingfeng’s expression was also grim.   He had considered the power of the Ancient Heavenly Tribulation, but he hadn’t expected that a tribulation of that level would be so powerful.   Holding the Burial Coffin!   He nurtured himself with the power of a semi-saint!   Even facing a true Immortal Emperor, Gu Qingfeng was confident of victory.   Yet, even so, his tribulation was a near-death experience.   If not for his final, desperate effort, he would have perished on the spot.   While the ancient tribulation was indeed perilous, the benefits it brought were astonishing.   Gu Qingfeng introspected, his blood flowing slowly through his body. Upon closer inspection, one could see that every drop of his blood was imbued with profound Daoist power.   The immortal energy of heaven and earth became increasingly active, and the obscure and difficult-to-understand Great Dao seemed to be clearing away.   This   was the opportunity bestowed by Heaven.   ”Innate bloodline!”   ”It’s said that such a bloodline is incredibly powerful, second only to the innate immortal body. Those who possess an innate bloodline can easily break through to the Immortal Emperor realm, and even reach the Half-Saint realm much more easily than ordinary cultivators.   I originally thought that even if my acquired bloodline wasn’t as good as an innate bloodline, it wouldn’t be too far off.   But only today do I realize that the two are worlds apart!”

Gu Qingfeng took a deep breath. While secretly shocked by the changes in himself, he also couldn’t suppress his joy.

Innate bloodline!

This was the opportunity Gu Qingfeng had gained after surviving the ancient tribulation.

His innate and acquired bloodlines had been transformed by the creation of heaven and earth, instantly reaching the innate level.

Don’t underestimate the difference between innate and acquired bloodlines; it’s an unimaginable gap.

If he had possessed an innate bloodline back then, Gu Qingfeng was absolutely confident that even without obtaining the body of a half-saint, he could easily break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.

The power of such a bloodline was simply incomparable to that of an acquired bloodline.

With such a bloodline,

Gu Qingfeng even had the confidence to go further and challenge the half-saint realm.

Of course—

it was too early to talk about the word “half-saint” now.

An Immortal Emperor needed to open nine inner universes, and he had only just opened the first one. Truly completing the path of an Immortal Emperor was not a matter of a short time.

But regardless, the innate bloodline bestowed upon him by heaven had completely dispelled any remaining anxiety in Gu Qingfeng’s heart.

With a single thought,

he closed his eyes, silently healing himself and consolidating his newly broken-through cultivation realm.

…

“The Ancient Immortal Emperor Tribulation!”

Inside the Cangyun Immortal Mansion, Shen Changqing picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and smiled faintly.

Gu Qingfeng’s breakthrough was good news.

Having survived the Ancient Heavenly Tribulation and received the blessing of Heaven, his future achievements would undoubtedly be remarkable.

Although Gu Qingfeng had gone into seclusion immediately after his breakthrough, Shen Changqing could still see the changes in him.

Without a doubt,

this disciple had likely obtained a Heaven-given innate bloodline.

“While an innate bloodline is not as powerful as an innate immortal body, it is far stronger than acquired bloodlines or acquired immortal bodies. This kind of bloodline power is very likely to originate from the same source as an innate immortal body, both being creations of some Great Dao Master!”

This thought flashed through Shen Changqing’s mind.

He didn’t seek confirmation from Jiu Ye.

But an innate bloodline is extraordinary, a supreme creation, not something that can be cultivated through the acquired.

Thus…

The innate bloodline is most likely related to a certain Dao Lord, just like the innate immortal body.

Of course,

even if they share the same origin,

the innate bloodline is still inferior to the innate immortal body.

Then,

Shen Changqing introspected, his gaze falling on the Seven Profound Divine Tower.

This treasure could nurture an innate demon god with an innate bloodline and could also shield the Dao Lord’s deductions; if nothing unexpected happened, it was very likely something left behind by a certain Dao Lord.

“If the Seven Profound Divine Tower was truly left behind by a Dao Lord, then it makes sense!”

Although Shen Changqing hadn’t yet figured out the origin of the Seven Profound Divine Tower, he was certain it was at least a treasure at the level of a Dao Lord.

Immediately afterward,

another thought surfaced in Shen Changqing’s mind.

“Then, could my appearance in the Great Qin Dynasty also be related to a certain Dao Lord?”

This thought quickly grew like wildfire, becoming quite tangled and difficult to unravel.

Of course,

there was another possibility.

That meant the Seven Profound Divine Tower had been within him for some time now. His appearance in the Great Qin Dynasty was due to the influence of another part of the Seven Profound Divine Tower.

After all,

the Seven Profound Divine Tower that Shen Changqing originally possessed was incomplete.

Later, he obtained another part of the opportunity left behind by the Ancient Heavenly Emperor, which allowed him to repair the Seven Profound Divine Tower.

After a long while,

Shen Changqing shook his head, shaking off all distracting thoughts.

“Forget it, thinking so much is useless. No matter what the origin of the Seven Profound Divine Tower is, it has played an indispensable role in helping me get to this point.”

With this thought,

he exhaled a breath of turbid air.

As he said before, thinking so much now is meaningless. When his cultivation improves and his strength is strong enough, all doubts can be resolved.

Besides,

even if he figured out the secret of the Seven Profound Divine Tower now, it would be useless.

A mere Immortal Emperor is no different from an ant before the Lord of the Great Dao.

Even if the existence of the Seven Profound Divine Tower was for some kind of scheme, it was not something an Immortal Emperor like himself could control.

Instead of worrying so much and adding unnecessary troubles to his mind, he should focus on cultivation and improve his level first.

Everything else

can wait.

Having figured this out, Shen Changqing felt relieved.
