Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Such a Supreme Treasure.

Emperor Luo Tian had long wiped off his mark wisely, and when Gu Qingfeng's Divine Thought penetrated into the seal, the information of this Supreme Treasure emerged.

"Mystic Sky Seal!"

"Half-step Creation Spiritual Treasure!"

Not only that.

This Supreme Treasure can also connect with the array restrictions of the entire Xuantian Immortal City. In the vast Xuantian Immortal City, there are many strong array restrictions, all left by the Great Emperors of the Immortal City in the past.

"Do you know who created Xuantian Immortal City?"

"Reporting to the Saint Master, the first Master of Xuantian Immortal City was created by the Mystic Emperor, who, like the Saint Master, was also a powerful figure that ascended from the Lower Realm!"

"Mystic Emperor—"

Upon hearing this name, Gu Qingfeng's expression shifted slightly.

According to Emperor Luo Tian, the Mystic Emperor was the Great Emperor who ascended in the Ancient Times from the Ancient Desolate World.

"Has that one fallen?"

Gu Qingfeng asked.

According to the records of the Ancient Desolate World, the Mystic Emperor was also a powerful figure comparable to the Taiyi Divine Lord, and in theory, it wouldn't be difficult for him to vie for Longevity upon entering the Immortal Domain.

If the Mystic Emperor were not dead, then Xuantian Immortal City should be a Holy Land.

Emperor Luo Tian replied without hesitation, "Saint Master, as you may not know, the Mystic Emperor created Xuantian Immortal City back then, sheltering us of the Human Clan. Later, he sought to prove the Dao of Longevity and vie for the Heavenly Venerate Realm.

Regrettably, he was ambushed by the Master of the Forbidden Area after crossing the tribulation and ultimately fell with hatred!"

"If not for the despicable ambush by the Master of the Forbidden Area, our Qingmu Immortal Realm Human Clan would have had fourteen Holy Lands instead of the current thirteen!"

Emperor Luo Tian also showed regret for the Mystic Emperor's fall.

Though that era was exceedingly ancient for him, Xuantian Immortal City still holds records about it.

Then.

Emperor Luo Tian continued, "Now that Xuantian Immortal City seeks to become a Holy Land, and with the Heavenly Venerate holding the position of Saint Master, it should be proclaimed throughout the Qingmu Immortal Realm!"

"You make the arrangements!"

Gu Qingfeng didn't pay much attention to these matters, as Emperor Luo Tian, having controlled the Immortal City for many years, would naturally be more adept at handling these issues than himself.

...

In less than half a day.

Xuantian Immortal City's ascension to Holy Land status.

The news of Gu Qingfeng becoming the Holy Land Master rapidly spread across the entire Xuantian Immortal City. Check for the latest updates on My Virtual Library Empire (M-VL-EMP-YR).

Instantly.

The Immortal City was in upheaval.

The thirty million Human Clan members were filled with mixed emotions.

Some believed that Xuantian Immortal City's rise as a Holy Land would bring disaster to themselves; a slight misstep might lead to the Immortal City's destruction, causing bloodshed.

However, others felt that the Human Clan had long suffered from the Evil God Clan, and having one more Holy Land now meant another hope.

It can be said.

The former seeks temporary stability, while the latter aims to secure a future for the Human Clan.

Both are not wrong.

However.

An observant person would clearly see the current situation of the Human Clan.

Rather than merely surviving.

It's better to make a desperate gamble.

Moreover, this newly ascended Heavenly Venerate managed to single-handedly pacify the entire Blood Cang forbidden zone, something almost no one throughout history has accomplished.

With such a powerful figure in command, success might not be impossible.

On the other side.

The former Immortal City Hall, now the Holy Land Hall, where Gu Qingfeng sat at a high place, and below were six Great Emperors and many other senior officials of the former Xuantian Immortal City.

"We pay respects to the Saint Master!"

Upon seeing Gu Qingfeng, everyone bowed respectfully, showing immense reverence.

"You may dispense with formalities."

"Thank you, Saint Master!"

Everyone rose, many looking at Gu Qingfeng with eyes full of awe.

Regardless of external opinions, they were well aware that this was someone capable of slaying the Master of Blood Cang.

Moreover.

Based on the news received.

This individual even reversed the odds against the Master of the Forbidden Area before experiencing the Longevity Divine Tribulation, and now, having achieved Longevity, his strength would only be even more unfathomable.

With such a powerful figure, the Human Clan could indeed gamble on a future.

"I, Gu Qingfeng, have ascended from the Lower Realm, which you all likely know. Now, with Xuantian Immortal City seeking to ascend to Holy Land, I stand as the Holy Land Master.

Below the Saint Master, a position of Vice Saint Master is established!"

Gu Qingfeng paused here, then looked at Emperor Luo Tian below.

"Luo Tian!"

"The junior is here!"

"Having been the Master of Xuantian Immortal City, you have labored and achieved much, and you shall be the Vice Saint Master!"

"Subordinate accepts the order!"

Emperor Luo Tian immediately adjusted his address, respectfully accepting the position.

"Greetings to the Vice Saint Master!"

Others quickly paid their respects.

Then.

Gu Qingfeng looked at the others and continued, "Beneath the Vice Saint Master, Elder seats are established. Anyone entering the Emperor Realm may become Holy Land Elders..."

As he spoke, Gu Qingfeng's gaze fell upon the other five Great Emperors, who were previously high-ranking members of the Immortal City, now naturally promoted to Elders.

Below the Elders.

Establishing Executors.

Anyone in the Quasi-Emperor Realm may become Immortal City Executors.

As for below Quasi-Emperor.

Gu Qingfeng delegated responsibilities to Luo Tian.

After all, as Saint Master, he could not oversee everything himself; many tasks had to be carried out by his subordinates.

Next.

Gu Qingfeng also established a merit-based system.

"Henceforth, merits in the Holy Land will be the measure, and as long as merits are sufficient, obtaining top-notch cultivation legacies or accessing cultivation resources is no issue.

The current so-called legacies might not guarantee your entry into the Heavenly Venerate Realm to vie for Longevity, but they can at least offer a chance to break through into the Emperor Realm, or even advance further in the Great Emperor Realm!"

"And the source of merits is through slaying Evil Gods!"

"The specific merits for slaying Evil Gods will be announced once the Holy Land's ascension is official."

As Gu Qingfeng spoke, he raised his hand, revealing numerous pills and Immortal Elixirs. These items were past rewards from the system and treasures collected in Chaos.

Though useless to Gu Qingfeng, these things were rare treasures for others.

This scene.

Filled everyone with excitement.

Great Emperor legacies!

Cultivation Resources!

These were what they lacked.

Although Xuantian Immortal City seemingly had several Great Emperors, giving the impression of having ample legacies, in reality, this wasn't the case.

One must know.

The legacy of a Great Emperor isn't suitable for everyone to cultivate.

An additional Great Emperor legacy means one more chance for a breakthrough.

Additionally—

Despite the abundant resources in the Immortal Domain.

These resources fall mostly into the hands of the Evil God Clan, leaving the Human Clan struggling to survive in the Immortal Domain; acquiring cultivation resources is incredibly challenging.

Thus.

Gu Qingfeng's actions naturally won people's confidence.

"Finally—"

"With the Blood Cang forbidden zone annihilated and Xuantian Immortal City ascending to Holy Land, these two events are bound to alert the Evil God Clan, and it won't be long before the Master of the Forbidden Area arrives.

Transmit the order for everyone to prepare for battle.

Also, inform the Thirteen Holy Lands. If they can send support, that would be ideal; if not, so be it."

In response.

Everyone took the order.

Soon.

They all respectfully withdrew.

With the Immortal City's imminent ascension to Holy Land status, the upcoming battle was inevitable, facing the Master of the Forbidden Area, and preparations had to be thorough.

In less than a moment, the vast hall was left with only Gu Qingfeng and Luo Tian.

"Apart from the Blood Cang forbidden zone neighboring Xuantian Immortal City, do you know how many other forbidden zones border us? If the Immortal City ascends to Holy Land, approximately how many forbidden zones would be alerted, and what is the strength of these Masters of the Forbidden Areas?"

"Reporting to the Saint Master, currently, there are three forbidden zones bordering Xuantian Immortal City, namely the Black Prison forbidden zone, the Red Demon forbidden zone, and the Swallowing Spirit forbidden zone.

In the past, the existence of the Blood Cang forbidden zone prevented these three from acting against Xuantian Immortal City.

But now that the Blood Cang forbidden zone is annihilated, and the news of Xuantian Immortal City's ascension to Holy Land is out, the three major forbidden zones surely won't stand idly by.

However, as for the strength of the three major Masters of the Forbidden Areas, I do not know.

After all, the Masters of the three major forbidden zones are extremely ancient beings, having vied for Longevity in endless ages past, and their strength should not be underestimated!"

Luo Tian replied, with a wry smile on his face.
