All matters.

Gu Yang handled them all properly.

Gu Qingfeng went into seclusion.

The entire affairs of the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty were entrusted to me.

Since Gu Qingfeng entered deep seclusion to break through to a higher realm, the day-to-day affairs of the entire Xuantian Immortal Dynasty were almost entirely handed over to the Regent Crown Prince, Gu Yang.

Only the most significant strategic decisions and issues concerning the very foundations of the Immortal Dynasty were retained, awaiting Gu Qingfeng's personal judgment upon his return.

This unconditional trust gave Gu Yang a vast space to exert his capabilities.

Thus, in dealing with national affairs, Gu Yang could act freely, implementing policies based on his own judgments and philosophies without any concerns.

He neither needed to consult on every matter nor fear overshadowing the ruler, allowing him to utilize his skills in governance to the fullest.

Moreover, the current external environment turned unexpectedly favorable.

The Evil God Clan has shown exceptional restraint around the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty, even proactively avoiding the dynasty's domain, directing the fires of war elsewhere.

This drastically reduced the external pressure on the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty, fortifying the borders considerably, and allowing internal development to proceed without wartime interruptions, resulting in a far more stable and secure situation.

As a result,

The pressure on Gu Yang, the Regent Crown Prince, was substantially reduced.

He no longer needed to remain vigilant at all times against powerful enemies at the gates, thus devoting more energy to developing domestic affairs and enhancing the dynasty's positive cycle.

The most direct manifestation was the increasingly majestic Qi Fortune that gathered above the Immortal Dynasty!

It resembled an ever-expanding golden flood, steadily rising under Gu Yang's diligent governance and the overall thriving development of the Immortal Dynasty!

As the Regent Crown Prince and future Crown Prince of the dynasty, Gu Yang's bond with the dynastic Qi Fortune was second only to Gu Qingfeng, the creator and supreme ruler of the Immortal Dynasty!

Every increment and flourishing of the Qi Fortune was clearly reflected on him, providing subtle yet tangible enhancements to his Qi Fortune and cultivation.

In such circumstances, Gu Yang, who had reached the peak of the Three Tribulations Heavenly Venerate Realm for many years without a breakthrough opportunity, finally encountered a turning point.

He faintly touched the threshold leading to the Fourth Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm.

Nine Tribulations of the Heavenly Venerate.

The power gap between each tribulation is evident.

However, the Nine Tribulations of the Heavenly Venerate are roughly divided into small cycles of three tribulations each.

The leap from the Third Tribulation to the Fourth Tribulation is more challenging and transformative than even the leap from the Fourth to the Fifth Tribulation!

Gu Yang had been at the peak of the Three Tribulations for an extended period, with substantial accumulation.

Yet, that crucial step seemed forever elusive, like gazing at a flower in the mist, unable to find the entrance for a true breakthrough.

Now, thanks to the continuous nourishment from the increasingly strong Qi Fortune of the dynasty, a sliver of light seemed to pierce through the vague fog in his sea of consciousness, providing him a hint of direction forward and a glimpse of the door's outline.

However, seeing the direction and actually pushing open that door to step onto that path are two different matters.

To truly break through and step into the Fourth Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm,

Gu Yang knew well that he still had a considerable distance to cover, requiring further accumulation and possibly a suitable opportunity.

...

On this day,

The long-calm sky over the Mystic Sky Immortal Realm suddenly saw the unexpected gathering of dense tribulation clouds.

An awe-inspiring aura, as if a test of the Heaven and Earth Laws, diffused from the depths of the void, covering a part of the Immortal Realm.

Longevity Divine Tribulation!

This was the sign of a cultivator about to break through a tribulation barrier in the Heavenly Venerate Realm, attracting a Great Tao calamity!

Gu Yang, who was in deep seclusion and cultivating within the depths of the Crown Prince Mansion, was suddenly startled by the familiar wave of tribulation energy and slowly opened his eyes, his Divine Thought piercing through multiple prohibitions to gaze at the center of the rapidly forming tribulation clouds outside.

Then,

His expression paused slightly, a flicker of realization and relief in his eyes.

"Second Brother!"

The one about to undergo the tribulation was none other than Gu Xuan, who was enfeoffed with the title of Divine King.

Now, with the descent of the Longevity Divine Tribulation, the intensity and Dao Rhythm fluctuation clearly indicated that Gu Xuan was poised to break through to the Second Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm.

In response to this,

After the initial surprise, Gu Yang quickly felt at ease.

Gu Xuan's cultivation aptitude and character comprehension were indeed remarkable.

As Gu Qingfeng's progeny, he possessed top-tier Heavenly Venerable Bloodline, with innate roots surpassing countless cultivators.

Additionally, as a prince of the Immortal Dynasty, he had long been enfeoffed with the title of Divine King, benefiting from the dynasty's Qi Fortune and top resources.

Furthermore, he had multiple times accompanied the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty's army in campaigns, honing himself in the blood and fire of battlefields, accumulating abundant real combat experience and understanding of life and death.

With such substantial accumulation and favorable conditions, it was naturally not surprising that Gu Xuan could easily bring about the Second Level of the Longevity Divine Tribulation today and breakthrough to the Second Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm.

Furthermore,

In Gu Yang's view, given Gu Xuan's profound foundation and formidable strength, this mere Second Level Longevity Divine Tribulation likely posed no threat to him, making a successful tribulation almost a certainty.

Indeed,

Gu Yang's judgment was entirely correct.

Despite the Second Level Longevity Divine Tribulation's magnificent lightning might and daunting Dao power, capable of overwhelming ordinary newly-entered Second Tribulation Heavenly Venerables, leaving them flustered and in peril,

In front of Gu Xuan, it seemed to encounter its nemesis.
