Name: Gu Qingfeng


    Age: 47/3000


    Realm: Mid-Level Extreme Dao Grandmaster


    Martial Arts: Heavenly Thunder Sword Skills (Beginner), Prajnaparamita Sutra (Thirteenth Layer Perfection, Prajnaparamita True Body Level Twelve), Heavenly Vein True Scripture (Second Layer), Longevity Skills (Perfection, Longevity Level Five), Pure Yang True Body (Perfection, Pure Yang Body Level Four), Heavenly Blade (Perfection, Heavenly Blade Domain Level One), Blood Refining Scripture (Fourth Layer, Divine Blood Level Four), Divine Transformation (Perfection, Divine Speed Level Four)


    Upgrade Points: 128


    "128 upgrade points!"


    "It seems I can enhance the Blood Refining Scripture once again!"


    Gu Qingfeng thought to himself.


    At the same time,


    he also tried to push the Heavenly Blade technique to its limit after breaking through the Great Grandmaster’s threshold to see how many upgrade points it would require.


    However, upon seeing the upgrade points required for the limit-breaking, Gu Qingfeng temporarily abandoned the idea of enhancing the Heavenly Blade technique.


    Very simple.


    Breakthrough for the Heavenly Blade.


    Two thousand upgrade points.


    That’s double the upgrade points required for breaking through Great Grandmaster-level martial arts.


    If the Heavenly Vein True Scripture were included, then the enhancement needed for the Heavenly Blade technique would rank second in terms of cost.


    As for the Heavenly Vein True Scripture, it sat solidly in first place.


    After all,


    the third layer of the Heavenly Vein True Scripture already required ten thousand upgrade points.


    Gu Qingfeng could hardly imagine how many upgrade points would be necessary to condense the Nine Great Heavenly Veins.


    It was bound to be an astronomical number.


    To this day,


    Gu Qingfeng was unclear about the exact level of the martial art Heavenly Vein True Scripture.


    Then,


    with a thought, he used one hundred upgrade points and advanced his Blood Refining Scripture from the fourth layer directly to the fifth layer.


    "Boom!"


    Billowing qi and blood boiled like a flood, and a terrifying aura emanated from Gu Qingfeng’s body, the powerful blood and vigor spreading to cover the vast Grinding Blade Hall.


    After a long while,


    having been known as prodigies within the Gu Family Manor from a young age, it would be embarrassing for them to be surpassed by Gu Shengnan.


    Therefore,


    they became much more diligent in their cultivation.


    Because of this,


    in just half a year, both of them had successively broken through Blood Refining Perfection and stepped into the Bone Refining Realm.


    ...


    "Your descendant ’Gu Xuan’ has broken through to the Initial Stage of the Bone Refining Realm!"


    "Reward upgrade points*30!"


    "Your descendant ’Gu Xiu’ has broken through to the Initial Stage of the Bone Refining Realm!"


    "Reward upgrade points*30!"


    ...


    "They’ve already broken through?"


    Gu Qingfeng looked at the information panel, his expression slightly startled, then he shook his head with a chuckle.


    "It seems I’ve been too relaxed in the past. With Shengnan about to break through to the Bone Refining Realm, it’s put some pressure on them, but this is good. Pressure creates motivation.


    Otherwise, possessing such resources would be a complete waste!"


    Honestly,


    Gu Qingfeng hadn’t expected that


    Gu Shengnan’s shown talent would pressure Gu Xuan and Gu Xiu, but it was for the best, as the two of them feeling some pressure meant they wouldn’t be as lazy as before.


    The next day,


    in the main hall of the Gu Family Manor,


    Gu Xuan and Gu Xiu came forward.


    "Greetings, Father!"


    "Speak, what is it?"


    Gu Qingfeng glanced at the two, who were now of an age to pursue learning and were significantly more robust than their peers.


    The two of them had a resemblance to Gu Qingfeng in their features, with three parts looking like him and seven parts resembling Xu Yulan, and they certainly weren’t lacking in appearance.


    The difference was, Gu Xuan had an air of a fine young man in flowing white robes, while Gu Xiu had a burly strength about him, his youth not concealing a certain rare fierceness.


    "Father, both of us have recently broken through to the Bone Refining Realm, so we specifically came to ask for Father’s guidance in learning some new martial arts!"


    The two traded glances, and ultimately Gu Xuan spoke.
