Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

"What a pity!"

"Even an ancient clan like the Ancient Xia Family has very little understanding of the Ancient Immortal Body!"

"Moreover, ever since the demise of the Divine Emperor of the Taiyi Divine Dynasty, the Ancient Immortal Body has completely vanished without a trace, and no one thereafter has been able to possess such a body.

It's precisely because of this that the rankings of various Immortal Bodies do not include the Ancient Immortal Body!"

This outcome left Gu Qingfeng somewhat helpless.

He originally intended to uncover the secrets of the Ancient Immortal Body from the three great Imperial Clans, thereby allowing this Immortal Body to advance further.

But alas.

The reality was not as Gu Qingfeng had hoped.

Even,

if not for the Ancient Xia Family being a lineage from the Ancient Times, it couldn't be certain if the Ancient Immortal Body truly existed in the world.

Such was the case even for the Ancient Imperial Clans.

There was no need to mention other forces.

Therefore.

The Ancient Immortal Body is barely understood by anyone in the Ancient Desolate World today.

However.

Although Gu Qingfeng felt regretful, he did not waste much time on this matter.

Since the three great Imperial Clans did not understand the Ancient Immortal Body, he decided to slowly uncover its potential himself.

At this moment.

Gu Qingfeng suddenly looked towards the void outside, seeing terrifying power descending, seemingly about to obliterate Kushan Immortal City entirely.

At the same time.

Within Kushan Immortal City.

Both Jiang Nanfeng and Hong Ye were the first to sense that something was amiss.

"Demons are attacking!"

"Everyone, be on guard!"

Jiang Nanfeng let out a long roar, his Saint Nine Heavens aura erupting, instantly sweeping across the city, while the City Defense Array was immediately activated, enshrouding the whole of Kushan Immortal City.

"Saint..."

A voice filled with uncertainty echoed from the void, as if taken aback by the presence of a Saint in Kushan Immortal City.

But soon.

A single finger pierced through the void, oppressing Kushan Immortal City.

With a furious expression, Jiang Nanfeng unleashed his full cultivation at the Saint Nine Heavens, shaking the heavens and earth with terrible might.

"Boom—"

In just one move, Jiang Nanfeng was sent plunging from the void, his physical body shattered, nearly slain on the spot.

"Demon Emperor!"

His face filled with horror, as he gazed at the domineering figure emerging from the void, the terrifying aura struck fear in the commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Jiang Nanfeng never imagined that his first battle after breaking through to the Saint Nine Heavens would result in such a swift defeat.

The strength of the Saint Nine Heavens was as weak as an ant in the presence of the true Demon Emperor.

Of course.

Compared to before the breakthrough, it was still significantly better.

If he hadn't broken through to a Saint, one strike would have left Jiang Nanfeng without a corpse, but now, despite his injuries, he survived.

"Two Saints at the Saint Nine Heavens!"

"Didn't expect Divine Martial to have such a strong foundation—"

"Unfortunately, in the presence of this emperor, Saints are nothing but ants, and with Gu Qingfeng not here, Kushan Immortal City has no reason to exist!"

"Remember... the one who will kill you is the Lishan Demon Emperor!"

The Lishan Demon Emperor's eyes looked down arrogantly, his words domineering, as if the cultivators of Kushan Immortal City were mere ants to be slaughtered at will in his eyes.

When Gu Qingfeng appeared in the Tai Chu Ancient Land, the Demon Clan realized that he was no longer in Kushan Immortal City.

Moreover.

That battle was intense.

There were rumors that even an Ancient Great Emperor had intervened.

So the Demon Clan speculated whether the Gu Family Ancestor was injured.

After much deliberation, the Ten Thousand Demon Ancestor Court decided to send a Demon Emperor to erase Kushan Immortal City.

Previously, with Gu Qingfeng in command, the Ten Thousand Demon Ancestor Court dared not act against Kushan Immortal City, especially since his power had once thwarted the Half Emperor, Rakshasa Demon Emperor.

If they took the field, they could not possibly be a match.

But without Gu Qingfeng, a mere Kushan Immortal City could be eradicated with a wave of the hand.

The existence of Kushan Immortal City was a thorn in the side of the Ten Thousand Demon Ancestor Court, and if it weren't removed, they could not rest easy.

This.

was the reason for the arrival of the Lishan Demon Emperor.

However—

Just as the words of the Lishan Demon Emperor fell, a terrifying pressure erupted from Kushan Immortal City, suppressing the vast skies in an instant.

In face of this terrifying pressure, an unprecedented sense of danger surged from within the Lishan Demon Emperor, as if he was locked in the gaze of a terrifying existence, his body almost immobilized.

Cold sweat!

Trickled down from the Lishan Demon Emperor's forehead.

The dignified Demon Emperor's mind trembled, and his eyes involuntarily reflected terror.

"Gu... Gu Qingfeng..."

The Lishan Demon Emperor's voice trembled with fear; he was frightened; this person was actually still in Kushan Immortal City, and this aura made him feel as though he was directly facing a Great Emperor.

"A mere Demon Emperor dares to intrude upon my Kushan Immortal City, seeking death!"

A cold voice resonated, and then a gigantic hand extended from Kushan Immortal City, reaching for the Lishan Demon Emperor in the void.

The Lishan Demon Emperor's expression changed drastically at this sight, and he forced the eruption of his terrifying blood energy, breaking free from the confinement of the pressure, then tore through the void without looking back.

However.

Even though the Lishan Demon Emperor reacted quickly, it was utterly futile.

With a seemingly ordinary palm, the Lishan Demon Emperor was easily captured, and under his terrified gaze, the fingers clenched forcefully, causing his body to burst open, and even his Divine Soul perished on the spot.

Immediately thereafter.

The hand seized a blood-stained inner core and withdrew back into Kushan Immortal City.
