Chapter 190: On Wanglin Mountain, the Three Gu Children!
Gu Nianmo could see through it, because Beidi was the territory where Gu Nianmo had always lived.
Especially regarding the Qilin Grotto-Heaven, before the three siblings reached the Supreme Realm, they had often stayed within the Qilin Grotto-Heaven, so they could naturally see that the flickering Void in Beidi was not caused by the tremors of those Heaven and Earth Enlightenment and Supreme auras.
However, as for those at the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment level, or even those Supremes, they could not see through this point.
They were merely rousing their own auras, which was agitating the Void, and terrifying fighting intent rose from each and every one of them.
Over a thousand Heaven and Earth Enlightenment existences and over a dozen Supreme existences—such a lineup is truly rare to see even if one counts back hundreds of thousands of years! Yet at this moment, above Wanglin Mountain, such a large number of powerful existences had gathered.
They were unscrupulously venting their own auras, and they were unscrupulously erupting with their own power.
Around the entire Wanglin Mountain, the air seemed to have condensed into a solid substance; if anyone below the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment level were to stand here, they would likely be unable to even breathe! Regardless of what thoughts these Heaven and Earth Enlightenment existences held in their hearts at this moment, there was no doubt that they were all longing, longing to battle Gu Jiangming on Wanglin Mountain, and subsequently glimpse the great power of the Heavenly Human Realm.
On Wanglin Mountain, even when facing the pressure of so many powerful auras, not a hint of gravity could be seen between Gu Jiangming's brows.
That aura, which was so terrifying that it had almost materialized, could not even shake Gu Jiangming's body when it landed upon him.
On the contrary, Wanglin Mountain itself began to show cracks under such an aura, giving one the sensation that the mountain would completely shatter the very next moment.
It is unknown how much time had passed, perhaps a moment, perhaps an instant.
That person on Wanglin Mountain finally made a move.
The Dao Principles on Gu Jiangming's body dispersed even more intensely, but as he merely stood up, the entire Heaven and Earth seemed to be bearing some immense pressure.
Those Heaven and Earth Enlightenment existences and those at the Supreme Realm all sensed that before them stood a god or demon who had walked across time from an ancient era, now standing atop that Wanglin Mountain.
There was no clash of auras, and Gu Jiangming did not believe that these Heaven and Earth Enlightenment and Supreme existences could combine their efforts to raise their aura to the level of the Heavenly Human Realm.
In Gu Jiangming's view, while these people were powerful when combined, their power was limited.
At the very least, Gu Jiangming felt that these people added together were only comparable to the aura of Zhou Kai when he was on the verge of death back then!
To ordinary people, such a massive aura comparable to a Heavenly Human is naturally terrifying, but in these three thousand years, although Gu Jiangming could not say he had made progress, he was not just spinning his wheels either!
Any Heavenly Human from any era in this Heaven and Earth would likely be unable to stop their heart from palpitating upon seeing Gu Jiangming at this moment.
Not for any other reason, but simply because Gu Jiangming had truly reached the stage of passing the Human Tribulation, crossing the Heavenly Disaster, and pacifying the Earthly Difficulty!
This realm could almost be called standing before the gates of the Ascension Realm; this realm gave one the feeling that Gu Jiangming only needed to push open the gate before him to completely step into the Ascension Realm and subsequently roam the world at will.
"Only the strength of Zhou Kai back then..."
"But, it is already enough!"
"My Dao Principles are dispersing, my strength is declining, and I have extracted most of my own Essence Refining, while also forcibly blasting the Qilin Grotto-Heaven into the Void over the past time."
"I am indeed powerful at this moment, but facing so many strong opponents, I am still under quite a bit of pressure!"
Gu Jiangming stood on Wanglin Mountain, a faint smile lingering at the corner of his mouth, as thoughts turned incessantly in his mind. In the next instant, Gu Jiangming's figure vanished from atop Wanglin Mountain.
"Boom—!!!"
Accompanying Gu Jiangming's movement, thunderbolts exploded out of thin air in the Heaven and Earth around Wanglin Mountain.
Amidst the roaring of ten thousand thunderbolts, it seemed as if it were reflecting, reflecting that this Heavenly Human in the world had only made a slight movement, and yet the Heaven and Earth were already dissatisfied? But Gu Jiangming's gaze had never once been placed upon the thunder roaring in the firmament.
He looked at those Heaven and Earth Enlightenment existences before him who were radiating their auras, appearing like an insurmountable mountain; just standing there, they brought an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.
No one dared to make a move...
When Gu Jiangming, this Heavenly Human, truly stood above the firmament and looked levelly at the many powerful figures before him, the many strong existences around Wanglin Mountain seemed to have lost their voices at this moment.
They merely gazed at that figure before them, and they were all silent.
Clearly, clearly Gu Jiangming had not released his aura at all, just standing there in such a casual and relaxed manner, but for some reason, none of these Heaven and Earth Enlightenment existences, these Supremes, and Quasi-Supremes dared to take the initiative to attack.
Only when truly facing Gu Jiangming directly did these people understand why a Heavenly Human could suppress an era.
In the perception of those Supremes, the Gu Jiangming before them no longer seemed like a living being, but a piece of Heaven and Earth, a Heaven and Earth completely different from the outside world! "Your child Gu Nianmo requests that Father judge the results of my three thousand years of cultivation!"
Others dared not move for a moment, but Gu Nianmo took a step forward on his own initiative. At this moment, Gu Nianmo was no longer tangled in other matters; he was actually curious, curious about just how much distance still remained between him and his father.
As Gu Nianmo spoke in a loud voice, a terrifying aura also bloomed from his body.
By the time the last word of Gu Nianmo echoed between Heaven and Earth, his body had already appeared before Gu Jiangming.
Without any weapons, what Gu Nianmo relied on was his own body, as sturdy as a god or demon!
Whether it was the Dragon Race or the Qilin Clan, the strength of their physical bodies was unquestionable, and even at the Supreme Realm, they actually each had their own biases.
Casting Dao Body, Developing Dao Spirit, Ascending Dharma Power.
These three barriers are necessary to achieve the Supreme Realm, and the realm after achieving the Supreme Realm is to merge the three into one.
Some people merge their Dao Spirit and Dharma Power entirely into their Dao Body; in terms of the Dao Body alone, they have already reached the physical realm of regenerating from a drop of blood.
Gu Nianmo possesses the Qilin Divine Blood, so he naturally follows the path of merging his Dao Spirit and Dharma Power into his Dao Body to forge an incredible physical body.
He does not need any weapons; for Gu Nianmo, his body is the weapon he trusts the most.
In just a short three to five breaths, the father and son pair, Gu Jiangming and Gu Nianmo, had exchanged blows millions of times atop this Wanglin Mountain!
Those Heaven and Earth Enlightenment existences who were slightly weaker could not see the exchange between the father and son, Gu Jiangming and Gu Nianmo, at all.
In a trance, they only saw, saw that all over this Wanglin Mountain, there seemed to be figures of Gu Jiangming and Gu Nianmo everywhere. Their exchange was so simple and unadorned, so simple and unadorned that only their physical bodies were constantly colliding.
Whether it was Gu Jiangming or Gu Nianmo, their physical bodies had truly been tempered to an incredible state.
Every time their bodies collided, Wanglin Mountain would shrink by an inch. Although it was only a matter of three to five breaths, that entire Wanglin Mountain had now turned from a mountain of tens of thousands of feet into a small hill of only about three hundred feet.
This was, this was Wanglin Mountain being compressed directly to a terrifying state under the clash of two incredible existences.
At this moment, even the most ordinary pebble on Wanglin Mountain, if taken to the outside world, would likely cause Nascent Soul existences to fight to the death for it.
"Dao Body Great Success!"
"Nearly perfect!"
"Gu the Heavenly Human's eldest son has actually cultivated to such an incredible realm?"
"Clearly it has only been a short three thousand years of time; this cultivation is likely superior to ten thousand or tens of thousands of years of our own grinding..."
On the other side of the firmament, Long Ao and the many other Supremes all had grave expressions; the Supreme Realm actually does not have any overly specific divisions.
Like Casting Dao Body, merging Dharma Power into the Dao Body so that every particle of one's own body possesses infinite Dao Principles and Dharma Power—this is Dao Body Small Success.
The so-called Dao Body Great Success is when one has already merged their own Dao Spirit with the Dao Body.
When the Dao God and Dao Body are refined together, this realm is true rebirth from a drop of blood, the true realm of being Immortal and Indestructible! To annihilate a Supreme with a Great Success Dao Body, unless one relies on the passage of vast time to forcibly and completely extinguish the principles of such an existence, otherwise, for someone with a Great Success Dao Body, aside from facing the crisis of Dao Transformation, it is fundamentally impossible for them to perish!
"Natural phenomena appearing at birth—is this what it means to be favored by Heaven and Earth?"
Not only Long Ao, but even those Quasi-Supremes, upon truly seeing Gu Nianmo's strength at this moment, felt a mix of emotions in their hearts to the extreme.
They had felt they had already overestimated Gu Nianmo as much as possible, and perhaps even harbored some dark thoughts, feeling that Gu Nianmo was merely born well, which allowed him to step into the Supreme Realm.
But upon seeing Gu Nianmo's Qi and blood surging like a rushing river and his physical body as formidable as a god or demon alive in the world, these fellows who originally harbored dark thoughts forcibly suppressed their own ridiculous ideas!
"On the path of the Dao Body, I have nothing left to teach."
"If Zhou Kai still retains even a trace of a lingering thought, I fear only Zhou Kai could guide you on the path of Dao Body cultivation."
"My physical body is indeed formidable, but in the end, it used a shortcut."
"You cannot control the Merit Karma Fire, and I do not wish for you to control it."
"The path you need to take next is nothing more than polishing your body, Dharma, and spirit to a state of perfect harmony, and finally, incorporating the Dao into your own body, forcibly seizing your own principles from the hands of Heaven and Earth."
"Once this hurdle is cleared, that is the Heavenly Human Realm!"
"Back then, although Zhou Kai and I did not incorporate the Dao, our comprehension of our own principles had already reached an inconceivable level."
"We had already mastered ninety-nine percent of the principles of Heaven and Earth, which is why we could possess the combat power of a Pseudo-Heavenly Human."
Gu Jiangming was clearly still fighting Gu Nianmo, yet Gu Jiangming still had some spare energy to guide Gu Nianmo's path of cultivation.
When Gu Jiangming so straightforwardly and unreservedly revealed the mysteries of the Heavenly Human Realm, thunder rumbled incessantly across Heaven and Earth, and billions of lightning bolts struck Gu Jiangming's body, as if wanting to blast an existence like Gu Jiangming who leaked heavenly secrets into dust.
Yet Gu Jiangming's figure was hidden amidst the billions of lightning bolts, and his expression did not change in the slightest.
This thunderous roar, which would be considered extremely formidable for ordinary Heaven and Earth Enlightenment, could not damage even a single strand of Gu Jiangming's hair when it landed on him.
As for Gu Nianmo, he just listened quietly as Gu Jiangming spoke of these Heavenly Human mysteries, then sublimated himself time and again, and continued to fight toward Gu Jiangming.
At this moment, Gu Nianmo already had a bad premonition in his heart; he did not know where this premonition came from, perhaps it had been buried in Gu Nianmo's heart all along, or perhaps Gu Jiangming's voice was too calm—so calm that it felt as if he were saying goodbye to him? Under Gu Jiangming's tidal-like offensive, Gu Nianmo's Qi and blood manifested a blood-colored Qilin figure behind him at some unknown point.
That was, that was Gu Nianmo's Qi and blood turning to the extreme at this moment, that was Gu Nianmo's body manifesting his Dao Body phenomenon naturally after enduring inconceivable pressure! "Mingyue, Sheng Xi, come together!"
"Let me see if there has been any slack or laziness in the cultivation paths of you three siblings over these three thousand years!"
Seeing the blood-Qi Qilin manifest behind Gu Nianmo, Gu Jiangming merely wore a hint of a smile between his brows.
Under his own pressure, Gu Nianmo had already begun to further urge and fuse his body, Dharma, and spirit.
If this continued, Gu Nianmo should be able to completely step into the state of a perfect and unobstructed Dao Body before he left this era!
And Gu Shengxi and Gu Mingyue, who were standing on another part of the firmament, looked at each other and walked out from among that group of Supremes.
Amidst the inconceivable gazes of ancient Supremes like Long Ao, they clearly saw that Gu Shengxi and Gu Mingyue had also pushed their own cultivation to the Great Success stage.
"One is Dao God Great Success, the other is Law Dao Great Success..."
Supreme Ziwu looked at the two siblings who stepped onto the battlefield without hesitation, and with just two glances, he saw through the foundations of Gu Mingyue and Gu Shengxi.
Once at the Supreme Realm, Gu Shengxi and the others did not need to show too much to ordinary opponents; those in Heaven and Earth Enlightenment would not understand it even if shown, and it would instead feel like using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.
But facing Gu Jiangming directly, even though they had not yet stepped onto the battlefield, Gu Mingyue and Gu Shengxi had already stimulated everything they possessed.
Especially after Supreme Ziwu spoke, those in Heaven and Earth Enlightenment who were dazzled by the sight slowly began to see some clues.
The one with Law Dao Great Success was Gu Shengxi.
Gu Shengxi's body was merely an ordinary Supreme body, but as Gu Shengxi moved, those in Heaven and Earth Enlightenment vaguely felt as if they saw an endless river of Mana surging restlessly within Gu Shengxi's body.
As for Gu Mingyue, there was no doubt that she was Dao God Great Success.
Although ordinary Supreme Dao Gods could manifest externally, it was absolutely impossible for them to be like Gu Mingyue, whose Dao God body was like a bright moon in the sky, as if the Moon God had descended to the world! (End of chapter)
