Chapter 237 Collective Ascension to Godhood
"The old ancestor has a strange temper and is difficult to serve." After saying this, Dugu Xun couldn't help but complain, saying how Dugu Meng praised Gu Yan and how she scolded them.
Gu Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this: "Senior Meng just wants you to improve yourselves. My master has a very strange temper. I've been by his side for over two thousand years, and he beat me up every day, almost to death."
After hearing this, Dugu Xun looked at Gu Yan in shock: "Your master hit you?"
Unbelievable! Someone actually went so far as to attack his Zi Rong, and even beat him half to death?
"He complained that I used too many magical artifacts and thought I was being lazy, so he punished me severely. I was coughing up blood every day, and those days were truly unbearable." Gu Yan told Dugu Xun how Qing Xuanzi had instructed him.
Hearing Gu Yan recount in detail how she was beaten, Dugu Xun felt both heartache and admiration. He realized that Zi Rong's rapid improvement in strength was due to his own hard work, not just his natural talent.
Thinking about it this way, I realized even more that I was being far too lax in my current state.
Perhaps the old man was right; they were truly utterly worthless.
"After hearing your words, Zirong, I feel deeply ashamed. I will now go back to my secluded cultivation and make sure you don't leave me far behind." After saying this, Dugu Xun turned into a streak of red light and disappeared into the night sky.
Gu Yan: "..."
Huh?
So you just left like that.
They seem quite motivated.
Not only Dugu Xun, but since Gu Yan's return, the entire royal family of the Tianyang Empire has been full of energy. They've all gone into seclusion to cultivate, afraid of being left far behind. Although they're already far behind enough, if they don't work harder, they'll be left even further behind.
With the elixir given to him by his grandson Gu Yan, Jiang Qian finally broke through his bottleneck and became a god.
He roared to the sky, his voice like the clang of metal, and behind him appeared the faint phantom of a giant sun crow with wings that blotted out the sky. The scorching heat wave instantly burned the furnishings in the room to ashes.
Rumbling--
The secret chamber collapsed, unleashing a blinding golden light that drew countless gazes. Everyone felt an incredibly terrifying pressure, surpassing even the late-stage Spirit Emperor realm. This pressure was rapidly escalating, poised to break through its bottleneck.
"It's His Majesty the Emperor Emeritus!"
"Is Your Majesty about to take that step?"
Gu Yan stood in front of the railing, her divine sense already directed towards her maternal grandfather.
Suddenly, two long rainbows landed on Gu Yan and transformed into a couple.
"Yan'er..." Jiang Shunhua called out.
Gu Yan knew that his mother was worried about his maternal grandfather. He looked at his mother and said, "Don't worry, Mom, Grandpa will definitely be able to become a god safely."
"No, I'm worried..." Jiang Shunhua frowned, "Didn't you say that if the descendants of the Great Sun Golden Crow become gods, it will attract the attention of the Great Sun Golden Crow of the divine race? What if it attracts that God-King..."
"Don't worry about that. I'll use magic to cover up the commotion caused by my grandfather's ascension to godhood. They won't be able to sense it. Besides, even if that God-King of the Great Sun Golden Crow Clan came, I wouldn't be afraid of him. Moreover, Senior Dugu Meng is also in this Cloud Realm. I don't believe he would dare to do anything here. Don't worry! Don't worry!" Gu Yan said.
Dugu Meng doesn't take sides, but he's currently in the Yunlan Realm. If the gods come here and act recklessly, Gu Yan believes he will definitely be unhappy.
However, surely no idiot would dare to provoke the God Emperor?
That god-king of the Great Sun Golden Crow clan shouldn't be an idiot.
boom!!
A blinding golden light, like a sword drawn from its sheath, pierced straight into the sky. It tore through the obstruction of the roof, ignored the daytime sunlight, and soared into the heavens with the power to burn the entire world.
A wondrous sight then appeared.
This golden ray of light from the mortal realm precisely struck the blazing sun hanging in the sky thousands of feet above. The two seemed to originate from the same source, showing no repulsion whatsoever, but instead merging perfectly at the moment of contact.
The already scorching sun now burst forth with a visible pale golden halo, its light so intense that even the air seemed to pulsate with a burning rhythm.
Jiang Qian's figure slowly rose amidst the extreme light and heat, his clothes fluttering in the gale, his skin gleaming with a faint golden, glassy sheen, and his eyes, opening and closing, seemed to hold two miniature suns. He felt the divine power surging within him, a wildly arrogant smile playing on his lips. At this moment, he truly became a sun.
He became a god; he finally became a god.
The sun, its warm divine power, was sent across the entire continent through sunlight. Wherever the sun shone, a peculiar temperature was felt—not scorching, but incredibly comfortable.
"Hahahahaha..."
Jiang Qian laughed loudly.
Gu Yan flew towards Jiang Qian first, followed by beams of light flying towards him.
"Congratulations, Grandpa!" Gu Yan said with a smile.
"Thanks to your elixir," Jiang Qian said with a smile, looking at his grandson.
"Grandpa was already capable of becoming a god; the purpose of this elixir is simply to ensure stability," Gu Yan said.
"Congratulations, Grandfather!"
"Congratulations to my Grandfather on becoming a god!"
Jiang Shuo, Jiang Miao, and the others were all very happy and excited.
Jiang Xi looked at her husband with a smile on her face.
Jiang Shunhua looked at her father with a face full of excitement.
Jiang Qian was the first member of the Tianyang Empire's royal family to become a god. The second to become a god was Jiang Huan, who was also a demigod. Then came Jiang Shuo, followed by Jiang Xi, Jiang Shunhua, and Li Yuan.
Gu Yan shielded them from the commotion caused by their moment of becoming gods.
The others, like Jiang Miao and the others, still have shallow cultivation levels and need a long time before they can become gods. Although Gu Yan has pills, they don't need them right now. Gu Yan also feels that relying solely on pills to become a god won't get them very far, so she doesn't let them use a lot of pills, but only helps them when they hit a bottleneck.
The Tianyang Empire suddenly gained several more gods, while in the Tianyin Empire, with Dugu Meng's guidance, Dugu Yeli, Dugu Xun, and Dugu Yun quickly became gods as well.
Even after they became gods, Dugu Meng's expression remained sour.
Because compared to Gu Yan, she is still far inferior.
He disliked all his descendants, and if he didn't like them, he would beat them up.
Dugu Xun was the most talented, so he received special attention and was beaten until he vomited blood every day.
For some reason, Gu Yan felt quite good after hearing the news. She finally felt at peace; seeing someone suffer the same pain she had endured made her feel much better.
Even so, I feel a little sorry for Dugu Xun.
But Gu Yan only felt a little sorry in her heart.
