The Saint Realm, with its ancient and enduring breath, a multitude of intense energies, was so powerful it made the heart tremble.

Gu Mu, towering mountains, spiritual springs, cascading waterfalls…

all sorts of landscapes were present and more robust and splendid than those in the outside world, also known as the Upper Realm.

This was an immensely ancient place; even the strands of energy in the void seemed to carry the scent of time’s sediment.

Occasionally, even the energy of chaos flickered in and out of existence…

In a certain location within the Saint Realm at the moment, a flash of light appeared, and Gu Chen materialized in this new world filled with the fragrance of sanctity.

“Is this the true Saint Realm?” Gu Chen murmured, looking around.

After transporting him here, the qualification token he had obtained earlier burned up into cinders and dissipated into a wisp of ash.

Using his Heavenly Eye, Gu Chen noticed that the rules of heaven and earth within the Saint Realm were exceedingly clear and stable, making it an extremely suitable place for cultivation.

The essence of Dao permeated the air, seamlessly woven throughout, and even without any special fortune, merely meditating here over time would lead to a natural breakthrough in cultivation.

“The Yu Ding has indeed been suppressed, as have the Qiong Cang Gauntlets,” Gu Chen’s eyes moved, sensing the changes in the Yu Ding within his inner heaven and earth.

This was the result of the influence of the Saint Realm’s rules.

Here, or during the period when the battle of the Ten Thousand Tribes commenced, the power of weapons was suppressed, especially so for treasures of great value.

Otherwise, there would be no need for any trials.

If those Great Undying Dao Clans and the top ten forces simply brought Dao weapons or holy artifacts, they would be able to completely overwhelm other cultivators.

Thus, to avoid this, such a rule was established in the Saint Realm.

So it was only natural that both the Yu Ding and the Qiong Cang Gauntlets were suppressed.

Yu Ding, being a quasi-Dao weapon, was extraordinary, to say the least, incomparable to other weapons, even if Gu Chen was unable to fully revive it with his current level of cultivation.

As for the latter, the Qiong Cang Gauntlets, they were once the strongest weapon of the Azure Cloud Sky’s Heavenly Master, equally extraordinary and immensely powerful.

Now, after entering the Saint Realm, both weapons were suppressed, and here, weapons could only reach the level of innate spiritual treasures at most.

“Every being that enters here is the same, and I am no worse off.”

Subsequently, Gu Chen looked around.

This opening of the Saint Realm was unlike any other; even the previously unopened secret places, along with the most central locations, were now open for cultivators to explore.

The Saint Realm was inconceivably ancient and vast, said to be composed of numerous merged worlds.

“As time goes by, those mysterious places that were never opened in previous sessions will be accessible.

But for now, there’s no need to hurry,” pondered Gu Chen.

This battle of the Ten Thousand Tribes was extraordinary.

Although in the end, only three million six hundred thousand beings entered, not a single one among them was a pushover!

Not to mention, among them were many geniuses who had sequestered themselves since the last great epoch, and even Gu Chen could not afford the slightest carelessness.

Perhaps some seemingly ordinary individual possessed incomparable strength, thus it was crucial to be cautious when meeting others.

“Perhaps, those top Covering Generation Demons are all thinking about breaking through to the Heaven Realm first?” Gu Chen mused.

Since everyone was aware of the extraordinary nature of this battle of the Ten Thousand Tribes, those Covering Generation Demons, the geniuses from the Great Undying Dao Clan, and the strongest prodigies from the top ten races all received the utmost support.

Without exception, their strengths would have reached the great perfection of the Unity Realm before entering the Saint Realm.

After all, surpassing the Earth Realm would result in losing this opportunity, so naturally, those Covering Generation Demons would not be so foolish.

Therefore, after entering the Saint Realm, breaking through to the Heaven Realm became their primary goal.

The chasm between the Earth Realm and the Heaven Realm was incredibly vast.

Even for the Covering Generation Demons, crossing it was naturally difficult, and whoever broke through first would undoubtedly gain a significant advantage.

Even the geniuses from the last great epoch who had been preserved until now thought the same; they all wanted to break through to the Heaven Realm as soon as they entered the Saint Realm.

This was within the permissible range of the rules.

“For me, what’s most important right now is to achieve the unity of my dual bodies and break through to the Unity Realm!” Gu Chen’s expression became stern.

The gap between the Earth Realm and the Heaven Realm was large, and even for those Covering Generation Demons, breaking through wasn’t easy.

Gu Chen still had some time to catch up.

“Besides the unity of my dual bodies, I need to find the location of the third piece of the relic and… break through to the Heaven Realm,” Gu Chen said resolutely.

The third relic piece, as the head of Qingyun Academy once said, could very likely be within the Saint Realm.

Breaking through to the Heaven Realm was also essential.

Only then, after unifying his dual bodies, would Gu Chen, using his true body, be able to walk the world fearlessly, unfazed by any foe!

Otherwise, if the matter of being Emperor Yu’s descendant was exposed, and Gu Chen ventured out in the Earth Realm and encountered a siege, it would be difficult to extricate himself and escape.

The situation would be different in the Heaven Realm.

At that time, the recovery level of the Yu Ding would also see a great increase.

“The longest time the Saint Realm has ever opened is ten years.

I won’t take that long to reach the Heaven Realm,” Gu Chen said to himself.

The Saint Realm opened only once every ten thousand years at least, and after each opening, the longest battle of the Ten Thousand Tribes had lasted for an entire ten years before closing.

This time, there were strong chances it might be the last.

No one knew how long the Saint Realm would remain open.

“I must also keep an eye out for Qinyan, Xidie, and Miss Chu,” Gu Chen thought to himself.

Among them, Gu Qingyan was Gu Chen’s main focus.

Both Princess Xidie and Chu Yue Ling had significant backgrounds and were not weak in strength, so he wasn’t too worried about them.

It was only Gu Qingyan, who, although possessing the Mystic Yin body, might have limited support from the declined Frost Soul Sect.

Moreover, having not seen each other for such a long time, Gu Chen wasn’t sure what level Gu Qingyan had now reached.

But as an elder brother, concern was inevitable, and besides, it had been over two years since they last saw each other.

“For now, let’s find out where my true form is,” he said.

With Gu Chen’s true form’s strength, though the selection battle had some minor turbulence, he passed through it without any hindrance.

With the Divine Realm open, three million six hundred thousand geniuses and monsters had gathered, and now was the best moment for Gu Chen’s two selves to unite.

“Huh?”

After a closed-eyed search, Gu Chen’s expression brightened with joy, for he discovered, quite coincidentally, that his true form had been transported close to his avatar—not too far away.

Then Gu Chen set out, his true form and avatar moving towards each other, and along the way, he avoided some places to prevent unnecessary conflicts.

Thankfully, with the Eye of Heaven, he saw through many dangerous terrains; some places seemed peaceful, but fierce beasts slumbered deep within.

In fact, not long ago, Gu Chen passed a great mountain that turned out to be the shell of a mysterious turtle!

Within the Divine Realm, aside from the three million six hundred thousand young cultivators who intruded, there were also many of the realm’s native inhabitants.

Even among these natives, there were many whose powers reached the limit of the Heavenly Great Powers!

As for taking one more step forward, to reach the level of the titans, that was impossible—another rule restraint within the Divine Realm.

The purpose was to prevent these natives from becoming too powerful and rebelling, leading to the eradication of all beings who entered from the outside.

Finally, two days later, Gu Chen’s true form and avatar met, which could be said to be an extremely exciting moment!

Since separating out this External Body Secret Skill, the two had not seen each other, and now, it had been nearly three years!

“From now on, my two selves will unite, and I, in my true form, will witness the splendor of the upper worlds,” Gu Chen’s true form murmured with a smile.

This sentence was what he had said when he first separated out this external body avatar.

At this moment, standing in a valley, the two seemingly different bodies, with distinct souls and even breaths, shared the same origin!

“Two selves uniting, reaching the pinnacle of evolution!” At this instant, Gu Chen’s eyes suddenly shone brilliantly.

Whoosh!

The next moment, with a swish, Gu Chen’s true form and avatar vanished together, entering the world within the true form’s body, the continent formed by the transformation of the Zhou Cauldron.

Here, no one could disturb him, and he could safely undergo transformation.

“The realm of union, break through for me!” Gu Chen’s expression was exhilarating, and with a low roar, he had waited far too long for this day!

And now, this day had finally come; at this moment, the two bodies sat cross-legged facing each other, and at the thought, boundless light burst forth from each body, then drawn together by an inexplicable force, they gradually moved closer and fused.

Hum!

At a certain moment, when the true form and avatar completely merged, the bodies united into one, even their origins thoroughly fused, Gu Chen’s entire being, including his spirit, also began to ascend!

At this moment, the sky was filled with radiant light, completely engulfing Gu Chen; he felt incredibly comfortable, warm all over, and an indescribable feeling of contentment.

With his willpower, he almost couldn’t help but let out a soft cry.

But that would have been too embarrassing, and in the end, Gu Chen resisted.

The surging brightness filled the sky, nearly covering the entire continent transformed by the Zhou Cauldron, with booming Dao sounds, holy radiance, divine glows, and immortal lights engulfing everything above and below.

This scene was fortunately happening within the world inside the body; otherwise, in the Divine Realm, it would undoubtedly have caused immeasurable disturbances, attracting who knows how many people, thinking that some supreme divine treasure had been born.

Within the splendid spectacle, Gu Chen’s entire being, down to every tiny particle that constituted him and the brilliant fragments of laws, radiated and flickered incessantly.

Just as Chu Yue Ling, the Taoxu Road’s Holy Maiden, had previously said, the uniting of the two selves, the replenishment of origins, and the combination of two Dao paths indeed led to an unparalleled, extreme transformation!

Inside Gu Chen’s body, various shackles were continuously broken!

“Is this the beginning of unlocking the second Divine Body Sanctuary?” Gu Chen exclaimed in surprise, as a grand scene emerged before his eyes—a vast number of stars revolving around him, a sight he found intensely familiar.

When he first unlocked the initial Divine Body Sanctuary, which marked the start of his path in body cultivation, he had seen it!

Now, years later, having reached the fifth transition of the physical body, he saw it once more, indicating he could unlock the second Divine Body Sanctuary!

“My origin, spirit, and all are elevating and evolving rapidly,” in this mystical world, Gu Chen could still sense very clearly all the changes occurring throughout his body.

It was a super-evolution, incredibly intense and swift, offering unparalleled, ineffable benefits and advancement!

The External Body Secret Skill of the Taoxu Road was indeed astounding!

Of course, this was also because Gu Chen’s accumulated strength was exceedingly profound, truly reaching the limits of the Huanxu Realm, with advancing further being arduous!

Now that the two bodies, their Dao, spirit, and even their origin were perfectly unified, the improvement that followed was unimaginable.

It could be said that even within the Taoxu Road, looking at those who had previously used this method to unite their two selves, none of their transformations could be as intense and extraordinary as Gu Chen’s.

The profounder the accumulation, the more one gains from the union of the two selves, similar to the geometrically increasing improvement of a cultivator transitioning from the Earth realm to the Heavenly realm—there’s a magic to it!

“The twelve Great Undying Dao Clans, the top ten races of the upper worlds, as well as the unparalleled geniuses who have sealed themselves since the last epoch, I am coming!”

At this moment, Gu Chen radiated with a heroic aura, eyes sparkling, his entire presence exuding an unmatched excellence, his words carrying an air of invincible confidence!
