Chapter 159: Chapter 159 Gu Yun''s True Purpose


    Gu Yun''s words.


    caused a change in Gu Yang''s expression.


    Even Gu Qingfeng couldn''t help but show a slight change in his face.


    "Based on what Sect Master Gu suggests, the Martial Ancestor of the Divine Martial Sect is a powerhouse above a Great Grandmaster?"


    Now.


    Gu Qingfeng was somewhat more polite towards Gu Yun than he had been initially, no longer as cold.


    After all, from what he could see at the moment, Gu Yun truly bore no ill will.


    Moreover.


    Gu Qingfeng was also quite curious about the affairs of the Divine Martial Sect.


    Gu Yun said, "Indeed, the Martial Ancestor''s cultivation was unmatched in the past and present, and he was the founder of Martial Arts. Know that a Martial Arts Grandmaster has a lifespan of eight hundred years, but the Martial Ancestor lived for two thousand years before finally passing away."


    "In an era without the existence of Magicians, a lifespan of two thousand years speaks volumes."


    "If the Martial Ancestor had not broken the limits of a Great Grandmaster, how could he have lived so long!"


    At this point,


    Gu Yun also looked somewhat envious.


    Two thousand years!


    This is a lifespan that all Martial Artists would find difficult to match.


    A Great Grandmaster lives eight hundred years.


    That is the limit for Martial Artists under heaven.


    The prevalence of Magicians is not solely because Magicians at the same level are more powerful than Martial Artists, but also because Magicians generally have longer lifespans.


    Longevity!


    For the vast majority of people, it''s an irresistible temptation.


    With ordinary humans living one hundred and eighty years, many people would ruin themselves financially just to extend their life by three to five years, or even one or two years, not to mention the disparity of hundreds or thousands, even thousands of years.


    "The decline of Martial Arts back in the day was largely due to the shorter lifespans of Martial Artists compared to those of Magicians!"


    Two thousand years—


    Upon hearing this lifespan, Gu Qingfeng''s heart didn''t fluctuate much.


    After all, ever since he perfected his Body Refining, his lifespan had already broken two thousand years, and after stepping into the ranks of the Extreme Dao Master, it had soared to three thousand years.


    Such a level of lifespan.


    Was enough to rival those in the Transformation Realm.


    It was upon hearing that Gu Qingfeng was a Great Grandmaster that Gu Yun rushed to Guangyang Prefecture without delay.


    And after entering Guangyang Prefecture and learning about the actions of Gu Yang, the Guangyang Prince, his conviction strengthened.


    Since Gu Yang took over Guangyang Prefecture, he has been intentionally and unintentionally suppressing the sect families of Magicians, and later directly exterminating the Zhuo Family and other family sects, all of which affirms his stance.


    In fact.


    Another reason for the decline in the influence of Martial Arts is that many martial artists, upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, throw themselves into the embrace of Magicians.


    Individuals like Gu Yang, who openly defy the sect families of Magicians, are exceedingly rare.


    Simultaneously.


    Gu Yun also confirmed.


    The actions of Gu Yang are surely influenced by Gu Qingfeng, the Great Grandmaster.


    Gifted!


    Powerful!


    Despising evil!


    Such a person is naturally suited to be a member of the Divine Martial Sect.


    Of course.


    Originally, Gu Yun wanted to observe more, but upon witnessing Gu Qingfeng killing Jiang Shidao through the air, he could no longer sit still.


    After a brief silence.


    Gu Qingfeng said, "Sect Master Gu''s thoughts, I have clearly understood. Once the matter of the Tianyang Sword Sect is settled, I will find a time to visit the Divine Martial Sect."


    "The Tianyang Sword Sect has a deep foundation, and Gu Yutian has long reached the pinnacle of the Transformation Realm, hoping to break through to achieve the Divinity Realm!"


    "Although Mr. Gu''s strength is formidable, facing Gu Yutian might not necessarily guarantee a win.


    Moreover, even if Mr. Gu wins this battle, the eyes of the powerful from the Nine States will all be on Guangyang Prefecture, a Great Grandmaster who can defeat a top Transformation Realm opponent; they absolutely will not let him live.


    Thus, it might be better for Mr. Gu to give up his current foundation and come back to the Divine Martial Sect with me.


    As long as Mr. Gu can obtain the Martial Ancestor''s inheritance, breaking free from the shackles of a Grandmaster to reach a higher level, reclaiming what was lost would be an easy task."


    Gu Yun earnestly advised.


    After all, the current predicament, whether Gu Qingfeng wins or loses, in his view, there''s no benefit either way.


    If he loses, no need to elaborate.


    He would likely perish in that battle.


    If he wins, it will surely provoke the fury of Magicians worldwide, and when an endless stream of powerful foes arrives, Gu Qingfeng will have only the path of defeat.


    Therefore.


    Avoiding the limelight is indeed the best strategy.
