"Father, the sudden arrival of reinforcements from the Ziwei Immortal Court is unlikely to be a simple matter!"

In the Imperial Book Hall, Gu Yang's expression was solemn.

The Ziwei Immortal Court, being such a colossal entity, suddenly sending troops to support the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty seems rather unusual.

Gu Qingfeng, however, appeared much more composed: "Regardless of the Ziwei Immortal Court's intentions, since they are willing to send support, there is no reason to refuse it.

Moreover, the Evil God Clan is powerful. If our Xuantian Immortal Dynasty falters, it would not benefit the Ziwei Immortal Court either!"

At this point.

He looked at Gu Yang.

"Next, I will personally go to the front lines. You will be responsible for holding the rear, vigilant against the Evil God Clan's covert actions.

My only requirement is to hold the Immortal Dynasty. All other matters can be put aside!"

"Your Majesty, I will follow your orders!"

"Go!"

Gu Qingfeng waved his hand, signaling Gu Yang to withdraw.

After that.

He introspected himself, and a powerful Dao Rhythm spread, causing the void in the Immortal Palace to bear the weight. The terrifying chasm-like aura had become even more dreadful.

"I wonder to what extent the Seventh Layer Netherworld Path will allow my power to break through!"

Gu Qingfeng muttered to himself.

Indeed!

Not long ago.

His comprehension of the Netherworld Path had elevated to the level of the Seventh Layer.

Peak of the Sixth Layer!

And the Initial Tier of the Seventh Layer!

Though it's just a minor difference, the gap between the Sixth and Seventh Layers is extremely astonishing.

The improvement brought by the Seventh Layer Netherworld Path allowed Gu Qingfeng's strength to soar, but the exact level it had reached was temporarily unknown to him.

Ultimately.

Without a corresponding benchmark.

It was difficult for Gu Qingfeng to ascertain the exact extent of his strength.

But one thing was certain.

Gu Qingfeng knew clearly.

His power had increased, and it had increased significantly.

The reason why the Netherworld Path could break through was the slaying of the Evil Gods.

The Netherworld Path!

The root of the Underworld!

The Underworld, also known as the Netherworld, is the true land of the dead.

By killing the Evil Gods and observing their fall, Gu Qingfeng glimpsed the profoundness of the Netherworld Path, allowing him to successfully break through.

Of course.

This was also inseparable from thirty million years of accumulation.

But regardless.

Gu Qingfeng saw a shortcut to enhance the Netherworld Path.

Slaughter!

As long as there is enough slaughter, comprehending the Dao Rhythm power dispersed at the moment of a creature's demise can advance the Netherworld Path further.

This is also why Gu Qingfeng decided to directly shred relations with the Evil God Clan.

Originally, according to his plan.

He intended to gradually accumulate strength.

Until the Underworld progressed step by step, reaching a power truly comparable to the Immortal, before revealing its fangs.

However——

Plans can't keep up with changes.

Thirty million years in seclusion brought Gu Qingfeng's cultivation to a bottleneck.

Purely secluded cultivation made progress on the Netherworld Path extremely slow.

Even though this slowness would be astonishingly fast for other Heavenly Venerates, Gu Qingfeng still found it unsatisfactory.

If he continued to seclude himself, even thirty million years, or even three hundred million years, thirty billion years wouldn't suffice to elevate the Netherworld Path to the Seventh Layer.

Moreover.

This Evil God disturbance is related to the Immortal.

In this way.

Gu Qingfeng was even more determined to quickly enhance his strength.

For these reasons, he directly declared war on the Evil God Clan first, using the blood of Evil Gods to further advance his Netherworld Path.

"In the upcoming battle at the front lines, will the ten trillion Evil God army be able to elevate my Netherworld Path to the Mid-Tier of the Seventh Layer?"

Gu Qingfeng curled his lips into a cold smile, a smile icy to the extreme.

...

Eastern Front!

Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain!

This is the Immortal Domain ruled by the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty, where hundreds of billions of troops are stationed, creating a tense atmosphere throughout the Immortal Domain.

"What is the current situation of the Evil God Clan?"

Luo Tian asked solemnly.

As a First-Grade National Marshal, with the Evil God Clan's army approaching, he naturally had to guard the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain.

In thirty million years, Luo Tian not only successfully broke through to the Second Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm but also reached the peak of the Second Tribulation.

The swiftness of his breakthrough wasn't just due to Luo Tian's excellent talent but also because of the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty offering plenty of resources.

Otherwise.

It would be utterly impossible for Luo Tian to reach this step within thirty million years.

However——

Now, Luo Tian's expression was grave, as the news of the Evil God Clan army approaching instantly weighed on him.

Ten trillion troops!

Three Divine Countries!

Such force is absolutely beyond what the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain can withstand.

However.

The Immortal Dynasty had given orders.

Luo Tian certainly couldn't abandon the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain.

Upon hearing his words, a person below responded respectfully: "The Evil God Clan army is now not far from the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain; they'll arrive in ten days at most!"

"Ten days——"

Luo Tian's face turned somber once more.

Ten days could be considered neither too long nor too short.

When the ten trillion army arrives, the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain might be obliterated in an instant.

"How about the Immortal Dynasty's side?"

"The Immortal Emperor has personally taken charge of the campaign. The army is currently on its way to the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain and will arrive in no more than three days.

Moreover, the Immortal Emperor has relayed that the Ziwei Immortal Court also has reinforcements coming, and they should arrive around the same time!"

"That's good then!"

Luo Tian nodded, his tense heart secretly relaxing a bit.

Since the Immortal Emperor himself has taken command and there is assistance from the Ziwei Immortal Court, the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Domain still has a glimmer of hope.

With this thought.
