Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!-Chapter 558 - 360 Bride’s Dress

Above the nine-layered heavenly vault, the heavenly punishment thunderbolt seemed to transform into a colossal flood dragon, violently surging, with terrifying aura spreading vast and wide. Below, the body of the Emperor Extreme Great Saint was shattered, with golden blood flowing from his seven apertures.

Seriously injured!

Even with the current power of the Emperor Extreme Great Saint, facing such heavenly punishment was somewhat unbearable.

Seeing a new heavenly punishment about to descend, a trace of despair and unwillingness appeared in the eyes of the Emperor Extreme Great Saint.

"Must I truly fall here..."

The Emperor Extreme Great Saint was unwilling.

Having exhausted everything, he had finally taken this last step. Once he overcame the heavenly punishment, he could be reborn.

However.

The heavenly punishment was formidable.

It was simply impossible for him to contend against.

Despite his myriad unwillingness, the Emperor Extreme Great Saint seemingly had to resign himself to fate.

Just as the heavenly punishment was about to strike down and completely obliterate the Great Saint, suddenly ripples appeared in the void, and a dharma decree abruptly materialized.

The decree unfolded.

Terrifying dao rhythm flowed.

A word "Slash" appeared naturally, followed by a sky-shattering blade that instantly severed the heavenly punishment, along with most of the tribulation clouds.

This scene.

Changed the expression of the Emperor Extreme Great Saint.

At this moment.

A voice suddenly exploded by his ear.

"If not now, when is the time to act!"

Upon hearing this.

The Emperor Extreme Great Saint hesitated no longer, his body shot up, and his cultivation at the Great Saint Peak exploded completely, with an earth-shattering punch smashing through the vast firmament, causing even the tribulation clouds to scatter overwhelmingly.

As the tribulation clouds dispersed.

The Emperor Extreme Great Saint exhibited a relieved expression.

Heavenly punishment vanished.

This signified he had successfully overcome the heavenly punishment, truly resurrecting.

Afterward.

The Emperor Extreme Great Saint traveled through the air, returning to the Demon Suppression Immortal City to meet Gu Qingfeng.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your intervention!"

His expression was grateful, knowing well that his recent ability to overcome the heavenly punishment was entirely because of Gu Qingfeng.

If it wasn’t for the dharma decree sent at the crucial moment, he would have surely perished in the heavenly punishment.

Though normally, heavenly punishment does not permit other cultivators to openly intervene, indirect intervention posed no issues.

With Gu Qingfeng’s dharma decree able to shatter most of the heavenly punishment, the Great Saint felt immense awe within.

"Congratulations to Emperor Extreme Taoist Friend for overcoming heavenly punishment and living again. Now I have a matter that requires your assistance."

"Please speak, Mr. Gu!"

The Great Saint’s expression was respectful.

Although the two still referred to each other as Taoist friends, the Great Saint had long placed himself in a lower position.

Facing such a formidable person, he certainly dare not show any disrespect.

Gu Qingfeng flicked his finger, four dharma decrees containing terrifying pressure appeared before the Great Saint.

"Now demons invade, evil spirits bring chaos, and the Star Dynasty blood sacrifices a state, poisoning the realm’s beings. I, as a member of the human clan, cannot stand idly by.

But presently, the Demon Suppression Immortal City is crucial, thus I hope you will take these four dharma decrees to Guxing State’s Tianshu Prefecture and slay Star Dynasty’s Emperor Lu Zhen!"

"Yes!"

The Great Saint respectfully accepted the four dharma decrees, without a doubt, the dharma decrees before him were exactly like the previous one.

And that previous dharma decree made him feel a suffocatingly dreadful power, exceeding even the Saint King, reaching a level akin to a Quasi Emperor.

Four Dharma Decrees!

Equivalent to four strikes from a Quasi Emperor.

Frankly speaking.

Such level of decrees, any one placed within some noble family holy lands, would be considered their final trump card.

This is no joke.

A dharma decree equal to a Quasi Emperor’s strike is a great deterrence.

No need to use it.

Simply letting others know of these decrees’ existence is enough to prevent other cultivators from acting rashly.

Even though it’s only one decree, no one wants to become the sacrifice for its consumption.

Equal to a Quasi Emperor’s strike, even the Saint King would bleed.

Therefore.

The Great Saint naturally understood the immense value of these four dharma decrees.

Then.

Gu Qingfeng handed over a demon core directly to the Great Saint.

"This is a Saint Realm demon core and should be enough for you to heal your injuries!"

"Thank you, Mr. Gu!"

The Great Saint did not decline, knowing that to the person before him, a Saint Realm demon core was insignificant.

Afterward.

The Great Saint departed.

Gu Qingfeng’s divine thought covered the entire Demon Suppression Immortal City. Seeing the Great Saint leave, he withdrew his divine thought.

"A Great Saint at the Nine Layers Heaven, along with four dharma decrees, should be enough to settle the Star Dynasty’s issue.

As long as no overwhelming evil spirit emerges, no great turmoil will arise!"

In this regard.

Gu Qingfeng was confident enough.

Then.

He closed his eyes, continuing his closed-door cultivation of the Heavenly Vein True Scripture.

For Gu Qingfeng, the greatest breakthrough now was to condense the fourth Heavenly Vein.

If the fourth Heavenly Vein could be condensed, then even faced with the Great Emperor, Gu Qingfeng would have the confidence to fight.

Do not think that one Heavenly Vein only doubles strength, seemingly having an insignificant change, but in reality, when a cultivator’s power doubles, the effect is often greater than that of two cultivators of the same rank.

Two Quasi Emperor Peak experts cannot be a match for a Great Emperor.

But if a Quasi Emperor Peak expert’s power doubles, that might not be the case.

Sometimes.

One plus one is greater than two.

This is the result of qualitative change.
