Just as the old patriarch forced me to my death, I achieved the unity of Dao and fruition.

In a remote canyon, 100,000 miles away from the Luoxia Mountains.

Gu Qingxiao and Gu Xiaolou froze on the spot, their smiles instantly freezing.

I was just thinking how great my comeback was.

First, he threw out the Star Talisman, a strike of the Nascent Soul stage, and then used the Luo Tian Migration Talisman to flee 100,000 miles away.

This plan and its combo moves are simply perfect.

But now, the old man in black robes, whom they described as "insatiable," "laughing like a pervert," and "deserving to die," was standing just three steps behind them.

Not only was he not dead, but he also had no injuries whatsoever. His black clothes were still neat, except that his hair was slightly messed up from the explosion.

Gu Qingxiao's throat bobbed.

Ten thousand miles!

They ran a full 100,000 li (approximately 50,000 kilometers)!

The old man caught up with them in less than sixty breaths.

This is clearly not something a Nascent Soul cultivator could do.

Therefore, there is only one answer.

Transformation of God and Taoism.

Gu Xiaolou also realized what was happening, and her face turned pale instantly.

Oh no, they just used a talisman and blew up a Nascent Soul Dao Lord.

Gu Qingxiao raised his head shakily and looked at Gu Changjin's face.

The more I looked at it, the more familiar it seemed. It wasn't just familiar; it felt like I'd seen it in a family genealogy portrait before.

Wait, I've seen this in the family tree portrait? Could it be...?

Gu Qingxiao's voice was somewhat unsteady, and he asked with uncertainty.

"You...you are...?"

Gu Changjin smiled.

But that laugh sent chills down their spines.

"What's wrong?"

"They can't even recognize their own ancestor?"

This statement came out.

Gu Qingxiao and Gu Xiaolou's eyes widened at the same time.

Ancestor?

But didn't our ancestor just advance to the Nascent Soul stage not long ago?

How did you become a Nascent Soul cultivator in the blink of an eye?

Did they receive the wrong information?

Not the Nascent Soul Ceremony? But the Deity Transformation Ceremony?

Gu Xiaolou's head buzzed.

The next moment, the two knelt down with a thud, their movements so synchronized as if they had practiced.

"Ancestor!"

"We were wrong!"

"We really didn't know it was you outside!"

Gu Qingxiao's voice was dry.

"We thought it was Pei Xuandu outside, or some other Nascent Soul cultivator trying to seize the inheritance..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Changjin immediately continued.

"Or is it some greedy, ruthless Nascent Soul cultivator disguised as an ordinary old man, laughing like a freak, trying to gain your trust?"

The two of them looked up at the same time, revealing a smile that was more like a grimace.

Gu Changjin then said slowly, "Still the nail that sticks out gets hammered down?"

When he said those words, his voice inevitably rose a little.

"You guys are pretty good at summarizing."

"I came to pick you up in person, and you immediately used a Nascent Soul talisman on the Ancestor."

"What's wrong?"

"Are you worried that the old ancestor might get sleepy on the journey? Are you trying to keep him awake?"

Gu Qingxiao lowered his head and dared not speak, while Gu Xiaolou was as obedient as a quail.

Looking at the two little ones, Gu Changjin wasn't really that angry.

After all, the situation changed too quickly. When they entered the secret realm, he was still the newly promoted Nascent Soul Supreme being as rumored in the outside world.

When they came out, he had already become a Nascent Soul Dao Lord.

No one could react in time.

Moreover, these two little guys are ruthless, ruthless, and decisive enough; they truly deserve to be the bloodline of this ancestor.

Upon exiting the secret realm, without the slightest hesitation, he first used a Nascent Soul Talisman to cleanse the ground, then teleported away immediately.

If the one blocking the door was indeed Pei Xuandu, or some other Nascent Soul cultivator, they would probably have been reduced to ashes.

This filial piety is just a little excessive.

Gu Changjin sighed.

"My family lineage is so strong, how come we only have such filial sons and grandsons?"

"This really leaves me, your old ancestor, feeling utterly helpless."

When he said this, Gu Changjin's face was still ashen, but Gu Qingxiao and Gu Xiaolou were both quick-witted.

Upon hearing this, one could tell that the patriarch didn't really intend to punish them.

Gu Xiaolou reacted the fastest. She immediately got up, ran behind Gu Changjin, and reached out her little hands to massage his shoulders.

"Don't be angry, Ancestor."

"Xiao Lou knows he was wrong."

"I really know I was wrong."

"It's because you look too powerful right now, Ancestor. There's not a single trace of spiritual energy on you, so how could we recognize you?"

Gu Changjin snorted coldly.

"So it's my fault then?"

Gu Xiaolou immediately shook his head.

"No, no, we're blind."

"Grandpa, you are so magnanimous, please don't hold it against us two juniors."

Gu Qingxiao also quickly stood up and bowed his head, saying, "Ancestor, there is indeed some important news in the secret realm. We are preparing to find a reliable major sect to spread it out in the future."

"Now that the Ancestor is here, it is naturally the safest thing to leave it to him."

Gu Changjin glanced at him.

"explain."

Gu Qingxiao immediately recounted the images left behind by the Meteor Daoist.

"That Meteor Dao Lord, whose real name is Xinhe, comes from the Xuanmiao Luotian Star Sect of the Central Continent's Great Luotian Domain."

He said he was sent by his sect to the Western Wilderness cultivation world to investigate the unusual activities of the demon race.

"But his footage is severely incomplete, cutting off at crucial points."

"All I heard him say was that something was wrong in the Western Wilderness cultivation world, that the demon race might... and that among the various pioneering sects, there seemed to be someone..."

Gu Qingxiao paused for a moment.

"I couldn't hear anything after that."

Gu Changjin's eyes flickered slightly.

Demon race? The demon race in the Western Wilderness has always had a very low profile.

At most, they are mountain monsters, used for disciples' training or as materials for alchemy and weapon crafting.

There are quite a few Golden Core demon beasts, but Nascent Soul demon beasts are extremely rare.

As for the Nascent Soul level demon race, Gu Changjin had never heard of them in the past five hundred years.

Now, however, there is a deity from the Central Plains who lived three thousand years ago. He was ordered to come to the Western Wilderness to investigate the demon race, and eventually died in the Luoxia Mountains.

Furthermore, it was mentioned that some members of the various sects involved in the pioneering work had problems.

interesting.

Gu Changjin was not surprised that there were ghosts among the various sects that pioneered the wilderness.

With more people, you'll find all sorts of birds.

What truly concerned him was the demon race.

This matter is probably not simple.

However, he didn't show it on his face, and just nodded slightly.

"I am aware of this matter."

"Where are the things?"

The brother and sister exchanged a glance, knowing they couldn't hide it any longer, and they didn't intend to.

Gu Qingxiao first took out a token that shimmered with starlight.

The token resembled glass but was not glass; its interior seemed to contain a tiny galaxy.

The front is engraved with the three ancient seal characters "Star Order", while the back has a line of fine star runes.

Gu Changjin took it and looked at it.

"A token of the Mysterious Luo Tian Star Sect."

"good."

He casually tossed it back.

"When your cultivation is sufficient, or when I take you to the Great Luo Heaven Domain of the Central Continent in the future, you can use this to join this sect."

"It might just be a broad road to heaven."

Gu Xiaolou's eyes lit up.

The ancestor didn't snatch it, hehe, I knew it. The ancestor is a Nascent Soul Dao Lord, how could he possibly care about these things?

Then Gu Qingxiao took out the first volume of the "Luo Tian Xing Chen Jing".

Gu Changjin rolled his eyes a few times and chuckled.

"You two are quite the little rascals."

"The technique is real, and the direction is correct."

"However, there is only the first volume, and one can only cultivate to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm."

"After that, we will have to enter the Mysterious Luo Tian Star Sect to continue our studies."

Gu Qingxiao and Gu Xiaolou laughed like two little hamsters who had successfully stolen grain.

Gu Changjin suddenly changed the subject.

"Of course, if you wish to cultivate with me, I do have a technique here that can lead to the Void Returning stage."

Their eyes widened instantly.

Returning to emptiness?

Gu Xiaolou immediately came over and massaged his shoulders even more vigorously.

"Ancestor."

"Look, now there are only the three of us left in the Gu family."

"If you don't care about us, who else will you care about?"

Gu Changjin looked helpless.

"Here you go, here you go."

He casually took out an ancient book and tossed it to Gu Qingxiao.

This is a simplified cultivation method he derived from the "Xuanming Devouring Heaven Scripture" and combined with the Xuanming Returning to the Void Cave.

Normal cultivation is naturally fine.

It is even more suitable for the Western Wilderness than the "Luo Tian Xing Chen Jing".

As for one of the little tricks up one's sleeve.

Then there's no need to say more; that's a symbol of this ancestor's love and care for the younger generation!

Gu Qingxiao took the ancient book, his heart pounding faster.

Gu Xiaolou also went over to look, her eyes shining brightly.

The two looked at the ancient book, exchanged a glance, and both saw in each other's eyes that they had struck gold.

Gu Changjin glanced at the pills, spirit stones, and ordinary magic treasures in front of him and lost interest.

Until the brother and sister took out the refining materials.

Divine Valley Star Sand, Taixu Star Iron, Falling Star Xuan Crystal.

There are also a few fragments containing the Daoist principles of stars.

Gu Changjin's eyes lit up. His natal spirit sword had been fused with the Star Sword Embryo, and now he was in need of high-grade star materials to continue refining it.

Isn't this just delivered right to our doorstep?

Gu Changjin coughed twice.

His face didn't turn red at all.

"Originally, our ancestor disdained to accept anything from you juniors."

A sense of foreboding suddenly rose in Gu Qingxiao's heart, and Gu Xiaolou's hand, which was pounding his shoulder, also paused for a moment.

Gu Changjin continued, "But that Star Talisman you just used made the Ancestor a little dizzy."

"Consider these refining materials as compensation for the ancestor's emotional distress."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves.

The Divine Valley Star Sand, the Great Void... even those few fragments of star Daoist essence were swept away completely.

The brother and sister looked at each other in bewilderment.

Oh no! Who would have thought that the ancestor wouldn't even glance at those seemingly precious pills and spirit stones?

They just happened to have their eyes on these refining materials.

Gu Xiaolou whispered, "Ancestor, that Fallen Star Crystal..."

Gu Changjin glanced at her.

"What's wrong? Your dizziness isn't going away anymore?"

Gu Xiaolou immediately put on a well-behaved smile.

"Grandpa, please take more; it's our way of showing our respect to you."

Gu Changjin nodded in satisfaction.

"This child is teachable."

After saying that, he picked one up in each hand.

Gu Qingxiao and Gu Xiaolou felt a sudden tightening on their shoulders as they were lifted up.

"Ancestor, where are we going?"

Gu Xiaolou asked quickly.

Gu Changjin stepped into the vortex of Guixu.

"Return to Xuan Yang Sect."
