Chapter 338: Two Years!
As time flew by like a fleeting horse, two years passed in the blink of an eye.
The once bustling scene at the allied army's camp was now a distant memory. The previously crowded tents had become sparse, with weeds growing all over the vacant spaces. The massive banner of the allied forces still flew in the center of the camp, but it appeared dull and faded.
The camp, which had been filled with people, was now eerily quiet, with only a few figures moving about. In stark contrast to the lively atmosphere of two years ago, many had grown impatient and left the camp, reducing the number of permanent residents to less than half of what it had once been.
Most of those who remained were focused on their cultivation. After all, no one knew how much longer they would need to wait, and Gu Yuan had yet to make any move. Rather than waiting idly, they chose to enhance their own strength.
Even Gu Fei wasn't stationed at the camp regularly anymore.
During these two years, he spent most of his time in the Gu Realm with his family, only occasionally visiting the allied army's camp in the Central Plains to check on the situation.
In the Gu Realm, atop a majestic mountain peak, Gu Fei sat cross-legged, with golden light emanating from his body, and countless mysterious runes swirling around him.
In front of him was a massive cauldron, radiating an intense heat that would make anyone uneasy.
Boom!
With a sudden rumble, a surge of immense energy burst forth from the cauldron.
Moments later, the rich fragrance of medicinal herbs filled the air, spreading across the mountaintop.
Gu Fei slowly opened his eyes, a trace of joy flashing across them.
With a gentle wave of his hand, a translucent pill flew out of the cauldron, hovering above his palm.
The pill was a faint gold color and emitted a mesmerizing aroma. Golden runes danced across its surface as though they were alive.
"Another ninth-grade mysterious pill."
"This is incredible! With our Young Lord, the Gu Clan is bound for greatness in the future!"
Admiring voices echoed one after another, and the entire Gu Realm was buzzing with excitement.
Gu Fei stood up slowly and stored the pill in his storage ring. He took a deep breath, preparing to enter seclusion once again.
Just then, two elegant figures appeared on the mountaintop.
"Husband, did you just refine another ninth-grade mysterious pill?" asked a stunning woman in white, none other than his wife, Xiao Yi Xian.
Beside her was another beautiful woman with a striking figure- Cai Lin.
Both had grown significantly stronger compared to two years ago, their cultivation levels evidently having advanced greatly.
"With this pill, my cultivation should progress even further," Gu Fei replied with a faint smile and a nod.
Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin's faces lit up with joy.
"That's wonderful! With your help, our cultivation has skyrocketed over the past two years," Xiao Yi Xian said, her beautiful eyes filled with gratitude.
"Indeed! I've already reached the six-star Dou Saint level, much stronger than I was two years ago!" Cai Lin added, her eyes full of admiration.
Looking at his two wives, Gu Fei felt deeply content. Thanks to the pills he refined, their cultivation had advanced rapidly.
Xiao Yi Xian had reached the three-star Dou Saint, and Cai Lin had surged to the six-star Dou Saint level. Their progress had far surpassed the norm.
"By the way, what about Zi Yan? Her improvement should be even greater, right?" Gu Fei suddenly thought of Zi Yan and asked.
"Oh, Zi Yan? She's something else now," Xiao Yi Xian said with a laugh. "After consuming the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, her potential was fully unleashed. With the fortuitous encounters she gained from the old Dragon Emperor, she's now in the late stage of the seven-star Dou Saint."
"With her ancient Dragon Phoenix physique, she could probably even challenge a regular eight-star Dou Saint!" Cai Lin added with a tone of amazement.
Gu Fei's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
Zi Yan's progress had indeed exceeded his expectations, her talent nothing short of extraordinary.
As they were talking, two young figures suddenly flew over from the distance.
"Father!"
A boy and a girl enthusiastically leaped into Gu Fei's arms. They were his children, Xian Yue and Wu Shuang.
Gu Fei opened his arms and embraced them, his face full of loving affection.
"Father, I'm already a Dou Venerate! In a few years, I'll definitely become a Dou Saint!" Wu Shuang said proudly, puffing out his chest.
Hearing this, Gu Fei's eyes flashed with surprise.
His boy's talent was indeed exceptional, surpassing even his sister's since childhood. Thanks to his fusion with the Rainbow Swallowing Python's power, he was born as a Dou Ancestor. Now, within just a few short years, he had already reached the high-level Dou Venerate stage, a truly terrifying rate of progress.
"Excellent!" Gu Fei nodded in satisfaction, pride evident in his eyes.
"Daddy, when can I be as strong as Wu Shuang?" Xian Yue asked, a hint of jealousy in her voice as she pouted.
"There's no need to rush. You and your brother both have immense talent," Gu Fei gently reassured her, stroking her hair.
Hearing this, Xian Yue's eyes brightened, and a smile of anticipation appeared on her face.
"Alright, it's time for me to enter seclusion," Gu Fei said as he released the two children and addressed everyone.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.
"Then, take care, Husband. We won't disturb you," Xiao Yi Xian said gently.
Gu Fei nodded and turned towards a stone chamber atop the mountain.
Inside, he sat cross-legged and retrieved the pill. Taking a deep breath, he swallowed it.
Boom!
A tremendous surge of energy instantly erupted within him.
Even though it was his third time consuming a ninth-grade mysterious pill, the energy was still overwhelming for him.
However, he wasn't concerned.
Every bit of energy would be refined by Xiao Ying before it was absorbed into his body. This method allowed him to fully absorb the pill's potency without the drawbacks of unstable cultivation.
Hummm!
A faint hum echoed as Xiao Ying's small figure emerged from Gu Fei's body, glowing with a rainbow-colored light.
Xiao Ying opened its tiny mouth and began to devour the violent energy. Under its refinement, the energy became gentle and slowly merged into Gu Fei's body.
As time passed, his aura steadily grew stronger.
A month later, he slowly opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing in them.
"Late-stage eight-star Dou Saint!"
A smile of delight appeared on his face. This breakthrough had significantly enhanced his strength, and now he was ninety percent confident that he could defeat Nihility Devouring Flame.
As he prepared to stand, the door to the stone chamber suddenly opened.
"Congratulations, on your breakthrough!" Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin entered.
"Father, soon I'll be a Dou Saint too!" Wu Shuang exclaimed as he rushed in, gazing at Gu Fei with admiration.
"Hmm, perhaps it won't be long before you both reach my current level of strength," Gu Fei said with a smile as he patted his children's heads.
If he could break through to Dou God, his direct descendants' cultivation would surely skyrocket due to the power of his godly bloodline.
At that point, it wouldn't be impossible for them to directly reach eight-star or even nine-star Dou Saint!
Thinking of this, Gu Fei's heart filled with anticipation- the day was not far away!
