Chapter 247 - 237: Frenzied Breakthrough

Immortal Residence of Eternal Youth.

Within the Returning Ruins Illusion Realm.

Gu Chenfeng appeared with the Ice Phoenix and Candle Dragon in a flash.

"Returning Ruins Illusion Realm, Master hasn’t brought me in here for many years, Master, let’s switch to another world quickly." Candle Dragon exclaimed with extreme excitement.

With a wave of Gu Chenfeng’s hand, the original icy mountains and snowy grounds instantly transformed into a Sea of Fire World.

The terrifying waves of fire raged crazily, with the Fire Attribute Energy being exceptionally violent and immense.

"Thank you, Master!" Candle Dragon was overjoyed beyond measure and immediately transformed its true form, shooting out.

Looking at the familiar Returning Ruins Illusion Realm, the Ice Phoenix respectfully said, "Master, I finally understand why you stayed with the Ancient Divine Sect."

"Oh?" Gu Chenfeng was slightly surprised and smiled faintly, "Tell me."

The Ice Phoenix chuckled lightly, "Back then, Master only wanted to improve cultivation, constantly cultivating, and because your cultivation was invincible in the Cultivation Realm, you felt lonely and isolated, never experiencing the warmth of kinship and emotional bonds."

"Are these things very important?" Candle Dragon interjected.

With a frosty glance from Ice Phoenix, Candle Dragon was scared to retreat several dozen feet away instantly.

"Not entirely." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "To be honest, I’m not too clear myself, perhaps it has something to do with the Lingyun Sect’s insincerity."

"Disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect are kindhearted and treat me sincerely, willing to give up their lives to protect me. Uncle Master Qiushui, though overbearing and unreasonable, once nearly died saving me."

"Even if it has something to do with the Immortal Residence of Eternal Youth, these are things I never felt in the Lingyun Sect. I can feel their sincerity."

The Ice Phoenix smiled gently, "Master is a person who values emotions and righteousness."

"Perhaps." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "So much time has passed; I don’t know what’s happened to the Lingyun Sect. I destroyed the Martial King’s Mansion, killed disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect, probably both the Celestial Fire Kingdom and Heavenly Dao Sect are pursuing me."

The Ice Phoenix laughed softly, "If the Heavenly Dao Sect knew Master’s identity, even with ten thousand times the courage, they wouldn’t dare do anything."

Gu Chenfeng said lightly, "I’ll find time to go back and take a look; I’m worried the Xiang Family might get implicated."

When Gu Chenfeng acted for the Xiang Family, quite a few people saw it. In the entire Celestial Fire Kingdom, there’s only one Ice Attribute Cultivator. If the Celestial Fire Kingdom and Heavenly Dao Sect investigate, they will surely trace it to the Xiang Family.

The Ice Phoenix chuckled lightly, "If Master wants to eliminate the Heavenly Dao Sect, just give me a word."

"If the Heavenly Dao Sect wants to die, I don’t mind annihilating them." Gu Chenfeng grinned and then looked at Candle Dragon, "Candle Dragon, release their bodies."

Candle Dragon immediately opened its mouth, spitting out the bodies of the powerful beings, including Celestial Emperor Baili.

"Devouring Power!" Gu Chenfeng activated Celestial Emperor’s Blood, his palm concentrating a domineering devouring power.

In no time at all.

The terrifying Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around gathered madly, increasing several dozen times instantly.

"Devour!" Gu Chenfeng growled coldly, starting to madly devour the Spiritual Power of Celestial Emperor Baili and others.

Gu Chenfeng hovered in mid-air, seated cross-legged, and began operating the Heavenly Dao Godslaying Technique, converting the terrifying Spiritual Power he devoured directly into Ice Attribute Spiritual Power that surged into Gu Chenfeng’s Sea of Qi.

"Master, do you want to devour all their Spiritual Power?" Candle Dragon asked in horror, even it didn’t dare be so reckless.

"Shut up!" Ice Phoenix scolded coldly, "Don’t disturb Master’s cultivation."

Candle Dragon instantly shut its mouth and moved away from Ice Phoenix at the quickest possible moment, terror filling its heart: "Master is currently at the Late Stage of Golden Core, can his body withstand the Spiritual Power of these strong beings?"

The crazy devouring made Gu Chenfeng’s body expand at a visible speed, his face contorting, showing an expression of pain.

"Such immense Spiritual Power! Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage is definitely not a problem." Gu Chenfeng said with excitement, feeling highly expectant, then crazily absorbing the pure Spiritual Power flooding into his body.

Gu Chenfeng continued both madly devouring and absorbing, coupled with the tens of times over Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Illusion Realm, his cultivation skyrocketed at an extremely terrifying speed.

"Master’s cultivation is soaring!" Ice Phoenix was utterly astonished, "Master’s devouring power is too terrifying! All the Spiritual Power devoured is converted into Ice Attribute and can directly enhance cultivation!"

"Master’s cultivation is improving so fast! This is not cultivation! It’s direct enhancement of cultivation! The reincarnated Master has become even more terrifying." Candle Dragon’s dragon eyes widened in utter shock.

The terrifying speed of enhancement was beyond the imagination of Ice Phoenix and Candle Dragon.

Two hours later.

Under Gu Chenfeng’s frantic devouring, his cultivation had already soared to the peak of the Late Stage of Golden Core.

Such a terrifying speed of advancement left Ice Phoenix and Candle Dragon dumbfounded.

Anyone witnessing this would definitely have their jaws drop.

Gu Chenfeng said excitedly, "Such an astonishing speed of enhancement, much faster than I expected, next is breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage."

In the blink of an eye, another hour passed.

"Boom!"

After stabilizing the peak realm of Late Stage Golden Core, Gu Chenfeng suddenly exploded with a loud bang, unleashing an extremely domineering Ice Attribute Spiritual Power that froze the fiery space within a hundred zhang in an instant.

The meditating Ice Phoenix snapped its eyes open in extreme shock, "Early Stage of Nascent Soul! Master broke through! Such domineering Ice Attribute actually suppressed my Ice Attribute."

"Three... three hours to break through to Early Stage of Nascent Soul... how is this possible..." Candle Dragon’s giant eyes bulged, unable to express its shock in words.

That’s right!

In just three hours, Gu Chenfeng smoothly broke through to the Early Stage of Nascent Soul.

This whole process was as natural as water flowing, without the slightest obstruction.

"Breaking through to Nascent Soul Stage was much quicker than I anticipated." Gu Chenfeng thought excitedly, "Ice Attribute Power has become much stronger, devouring power enhancing cultivation, the speed indeed is the fastest."

With cultivation breaking through to Nascent Soul Stage, both the Ice Attribute Spiritual Power and Celestial Emperor’s Blood became several dozen times more powerful than before.

After glancing at the bodies of Celestial Emperor Baili and others, Gu Chenfeng smiled, "Although the residual Spiritual Power in them is not much, it’s entirely sufficient for me."

"With the breakthrough to Early Stage of Nascent Soul, the devouring power has become stronger, and now that I have time, I will devour all the remaining Spiritual Power in them at once!"

With the devouring power becoming stronger, it meant the devouring capacity was enhanced, leading to greater devoured power, providing a further boost to Gu Chenfeng’s cultivation speed.

In the blink of an eye, another three hours passed.

A thunderous roar erupted in the Sea of Fire World as an even more terrifying Ice Attribute Spiritual Power exploded from Gu Chenfeng’s body.

Middle Stage of Nascent Soul!

In another instant, three more hours passed.

Under Gu Chenfeng’s ferocious devouring, after completely devouring all the residual Spiritual Power in the bodies, another earth-shattering roar erupted in the Sea of Fire World.

A terrifying Ice Attribute Spiritual Power burst forth from Gu Chenfeng’s body.

Late Stage of Nascent Soul!

Ice Phoenix and Candle Dragon were completely dumbfounded, like petrified statues, remaining utterly motionless.

In just nine hours, Gu Chenfeng broke through from the Late Stage of Golden Core to the Late Stage of Nascent Soul, advancing by an entire major realm.

This kind of frenzied breakthrough exceeded their imagination and understanding.
