Chapter 300: Seclusion, Troops Arrive at the Clear Sky Sect

Leaving this special space, Gu Xuan returned to the forest fortress of Star Moon Lake; at this moment Ning Rongrong's absorption of the ninth Soul Ring had reached the most critical point, and Gu Xuan did not disturb her but went to a secret chamber to cultivate alone.

After breaking through to the ninety‑seven level for several months and enduring a few great battles, Gu Xuan had almost adapted to his soaring power. Now he is only one step away from the ninety‑eighth level and plans to breakthrough at Star Moon Lake.

Upon entering the secret chamber, Gu Xuan established an isolated, sealed space and then began his closed‑door cultivation.

On the other side, a few days earlier, within the Binghuo Liangyi Yan, Yang Wudi and Ye Haitang refined the whale‑gel from the deep‑sea demon whale king that Gu Xuan had given them into a pill, which Yang Wudi named the Break‑through Golden Pill.

The character "gold" was chosen for its homophony with "whale". After the three Break‑through Golden Pills were refined, two of them were sent to the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect and handed to the Sword‑bone Titled Douluo. Those two are now at the peak of the ninety‑eighth level and the peak of the ninety‑seventh level respectively; although further breakthroughs remain possible, they will still require long periods of arduous cultivation.

Now that these two Break‑through Golden Pills have arrived, they provide a smooth and healthy road for their cultivation.

Yang Wudi kept the last Break‑through Golden Pill for himself, because it was given to him by Gu Xuan.

Now Yang Wudi is at the ninety‑fourth level and, among the older generation of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect, he is the only one besides Ning Fengzhi who possesses a hundred‑thousand‑year Soul Ring. Coupled with his soul‑breaking spear, which is not inferior to the Clear Sky Hammer—a top‑tier weapon martial soul—his future is likewise boundless.

With this Break‑through Golden Pill, he may well be able to reach the heights of Chen Xin and Gu Rong in the future.

As Gu Xuan's teacher, Yang Wudi also harbors his own ambitions; after all, a master is both teacher and a second father. He also wishes to follow Gu Xuan to that realm and see different scenery.

Now Ning Fengzhi is busy; after Gu Xuan left, all the affairs of the Sun‑Moon Empire were handed to him. Although the empire has a Civil Administration Department, the newly founded nation has many areas that require his personal oversight.

During the day he must handle state affairs, and at night he must train desperately, for he is now a Nine Treasure Glazed Tower Soul Master, and possessing a hundred‑thousand‑year Soul Ring, his talent has been further enhanced.

He is also ambitious; in the future he hopes to challenge the ninety‑ninth level and strive toward that realm.

Moreover, on Gu Xuan's suggestion, he now spends one hour each night sharing a chamber with his wives.

After all, a martial soul is inherited from one's parents; his martial soul has now evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tower. If his descendants can inherit the Nine Treasure Glazed Tower martial soul, this will also be a path for the former Seven Treasure Glazed Sect to become the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect.

After the nation's founding, the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect was completely renamed the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect. Ning Fengzhi, a ninety‑three‑level Titled Douluo, has also displayed his Nine Treasure Glazed Tower!

As for Ning Fengzhi marrying a horde of wives to bear children, he was initially resistant, but after Gu Xuan's guidance he no longer opposed it.

With the little princess cheering him on, Ning Fengzhi no longer has any lingering worries and works hard to produce offspring daily; among his dozens of wives, three are now pregnant.

Moreover, these women all have excellent talent; even if they do not inherit his Nine Treasure Glazed Tower in the future, there is a high probability they will inherit their mothers' martial souls.

As for why the position is not passed to Ning Rongrong, no further explanation is needed; if Ning Rongrong does not obtain a divine inheritance, then the position naturally belongs to Ning Fengzhi.

It is only that Ning Rongrong is now the heir of the Sea God, so she no longer needs that position; therefore Ning Fengzhi works so hard at producing children.

Compared with Ning Fengzhi's speed of producing offspring, Gu Xuan is far slower; after months of effort, none of the women became pregnant, because Gu Xuan's power is now so great that the women's physical qualities cannot keep up, making conception difficult.

Unless they catch up to Gu Xuan in the future, only then can the probability of conception be greatly increased.

Of course, this does not mean that Gu Xuan and the women cannot succeed now; it is merely that Gu Xuan's genetic inheritance is so powerful that the odds have decreased.

Additionally, perhaps the pregnancy aura is poor, causing all those day‑and‑night efforts to yield nothing.

Fortunately, Gu Xuan is not in a hurry; after all, he intends to go to the Divine Realm in the future, and having children now is merely to pave the way for them, and having too many would not be good.

After all, the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest are so few that many children would not have enough to share.

Thinking of this, Gu Xuan also considered the far‑north lands, where a few powerful ferocious beasts reside and could be brought in; moreover, once the alliance between the Sun‑Moon Empire and the Star Dou Great Forest stabilizes, Gu Xuan will go to the far north and incorporate it into the empire's territory.

During Gu Xuan's closed‑door breakthrough, Ning Fengzhi has already led troops to the Clear Sky Sect. Although his regular state affairs are busy, reclaiming the scattered forces within the empire is also a matter of great importance.

The hidden location of the Clear Sky Sect is a continuous mountain range, situated three hundred li east of the former Tian Dou Empire's capital, Tian Dou City.

Beyond the mountains lies a small village of three to four hundred people, comprised of ordinary folk and low‑talent disciples that the Clear Sky Sect absorbed after going into seclusion.

When Ning Fengzhi arrived with his army, the entire village was stunned, because this time he came directly with five thousand Soul Masters and fifteen Titled Douluo.

Such a terrifying scale and powerful lineup left the few Soul Emperors stationed in the village bewildered; before they could send a signal to the sect interior, a cyan phantom and a black shadow had already subdued the Soul Masters of Soul King rank and above within the area.

The two light‑shadows were the left wing of the ninety‑fourth level Wind‑God Douluo and the Ghost‑Leopard Douluo; both are Titled Douluo who excel in speed, and they personally undertook the scouting mission.

After all, Ning Fengzhi is extremely cautious; since the enemy this time is the former number‑one sect in the world, he came in as the ace.

Besides the Wind‑God Douluo and Ghost‑Leopard Douluo, the Titled Douluo he brought also included the two Sword‑bone Douluo, who had just obtained the Break‑through Golden Pills a few days earlier and had not yet used them, but were forced into the mission.

The remaining Titled Douluo are the Spirit Hall's Guangling Douluo, Qianjun Douluo, Xiangmo Douluo, Yuyuan Zhen of the Blue‑Electric Tyrannosaurus Sect, Ju Gui Douluo, Longwu of the Baolong Douluo, Mihe of the Po Jun Douluo, Ci Tun Douluo, and She Mao Douluo.

In addition to these thirteen Titled Douluo, there are Fire‑Science Di of the Divine Fire Gate, the Titled Divine Fire Douluo, the Wind‑Spiral Storm of the Wind‑God Valley, the Titled Divine Wind Douluo, and three Douluo from the Black Tortoise Sect.

Beyond that, there are the heads of the lower four gates and the sect leaders of various large and small sects.

The campaign against the rebel Ning Fengzhi was summoned under Gu Xuan, the Sun‑Moon Great Emperor's decree, rallying all sect forces across the world; therefore, any power that has received the Sun‑Moon Empire's imperial appointment must dispatch personnel.

Those who refused have already been subjugated like the Clear Sky Sect; however, since the Clear Sky Sect was the former world's number one sect, it survived until the end.

Ning Fengzhi leads fifteen Titled Douluo, and together with himself as a Titled Douluo, makes sixteen Titled Douluo and five thousand Soul Masters; this strength is enough to annihilate any power on the continent.
