Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 182 Advancement to Dou Sheng! The Ancient Clan's Coming-of-Age Ceremony is Imminent!

Beside the Yellow Springs, the energy of heaven and earth roars!

Although Zi Yan felt bored, Gu Fei was cultivating, so she didn't leave his side for a moment.

During this time, Queen Medusa also came up from the lake twice. After seeing that Gu Fei was still cultivating, she continued to delve deeper into the Yellow Springs.

And so, another year passed.

For a year, Gu Fei remained sitting in the same spot, without making any move.

It was as if everything in the outside world was irrelevant to him.

Around it, terrifying and pure energy swirled like clouds and mist; if you grabbed it, it would be as viscous as water…

One day, the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) began to violently surge, affecting an area of ​​hundreds of miles. Even many powerful members of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan sensed the anomaly.

At this moment, it seemed as if all the energy in the world was being drawn together.

A massive, overwhelming surge came in.

Finally, it gathered into a huge energy storm above Gu Fei's head.

The end of the storm landed right on the top of Gu Fei's head.

Gu Fei suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, and then he opened his mouth and took a deep breath!

"boom!"

With that inhale, a massive energy storm, hundreds of feet in size, surged down, flowing down his throat and into Gu Fei's body.

"Finally, we succeeded..."

Upon noticing the commotion, Zi Yan quickly stood up and looked toward Gu Fei's location.

After two years of sitting still, Gu Fei's body finally began to move for the first time.

He stretched!

Click!

Click!

A sound of bones loosening was heard.

"I never imagined that this seclusion would last for two years!"

Gu Fei sighed to himself.

Calculating the time, it took him more than five years to go from the peak of Dou Zun to becoming a Saint after nine revolutions, then a Half-Saint, and now to become a true One-Star Dou Sheng.

Although this timeframe may sound long, it is something that would make countless people envious.

Many powerful individuals spend their entire lives unable to reach the level of a half-saint, remaining stuck at the peak of the Dou Zun realm without making any further progress. There are also many who cultivate to the level of a half-saint but remain stagnant for decades, unable to break through to the next level even on the day of their death.

"Brother Gufei, you're finally better! I've been so bored these past few days!"

Zi Yan happily rushed over.

Perhaps because it was just the two of them, Zi Yan became bolder and directly opened her arms to hug Gu Fei.

As the warm, soft body embraced him, Gu Fei's heart involuntarily began to race.

This girl has matured a lot since she grew up, and she definitely has a certain allure.

"puff!"

Just then, a splash of water rose from the Netherworld, and Cai'er flew out from it.

Seeing this, Zi Yan, who had been hoping to make eye contact with Gu Fei, quickly got off Gu Fei.

Her little face was rosy.

"My lord, congratulations on your breakthrough to the Dou Sheng realm!"

Cai'er walked over with a smile to congratulate her. She had actually seen Zi Yan fall on top of Gu Fei, but seeing Zi Yan's embarrassed expression, she didn't point it out.

Zi Yan was always aware of Gu Fei's feelings for her, and even hoped that the two of them could take that step.

"Cai'er, you've made great progress too, you've already reached the Eight-Star Dou Zun!"

Gu Fei smiled and said, then reached out and embraced Cai'er.

Seeing this, Ziyan didn't complain about their public displays of affection like she did last time. Instead, she was glad that Cai'er hadn't seen what she had just done.

"Little Fairy Doctor and the children must have missed you terribly during this time!"

After a moment of tenderness, Cai'er's soft voice reached Gu Fei's ears.

"This seclusion has been a bit too long!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Fei nodded.

He's been in seclusion for so long; his two children must have grown quite a bit taller by now.

"Judging by the time, my ancient clan's coming-of-age ceremony is about to begin..."

After saying this, Gu Fei looked at Zi Yan, who was standing to the side with her head down: "Zi Yan, are you sure you want to go back to Dragon Island now and not accompany me to the clan's coming-of-age ceremony?"

"Wow, her coming-of-age ceremony is coming up so soon!"

Upon hearing Gu Fei's words, Zi Yan was taken aback.

Having stayed in the ancient clan for so long, she knew quite a bit about it, including the coming-of-age ceremony held every twenty years, which was a major event for the clan.

Those qualified to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony are all outstanding young people within the ancient clan.

Originally, Zi Yan calculated that there were still nearly three years until the ancient clan's coming-of-age ceremony, and she would be able to make it back smoothly after returning to Ancient Dragon Island.

But now, because Gu Fei went into seclusion once and he had been guarding him for two years, if he were to return to Gu Long Island now, he definitely wouldn't be able to witness Gu Fei's coming-of-age ceremony.

"Alright then, I'll go back to Gulong Island a little later to witness your coming-of-age ceremony!" Zi Yan nodded. Between the two things, she chose Gu Fei almost without hesitation.

"Haha, it turns out I didn't spoil you for nothing!"

Upon hearing Zi Yan's answer, Gu Fei burst into laughter.

In fact, the reason he kept delaying Zi Yan's return to Dragon Island to reorganize the Dragon Clan was because he was worried about Zi Yan's safety. Even with her late-stage four-star Dou Sheng cultivation, it would be difficult for her to properly handle the rebellion within the Dragon Clan. Moreover, the clan would suffer heavy losses due to the great war.

If one day, after Zi Yan returns to Dragon Island, she can absolutely crush the three Dragon Kings and prevent the dragons of the three Dragon Islands from killing each other, that would be the best outcome.

Next, Gu Fei took Zi Yan and Cai'er back to the Ancient Realm.

Before leaving, Cai'er glanced at the Nine Netherworlds. From the moment she entered the Nine Netherworlds, she had vaguely felt a summons.

After this period of cultivation, she was finally able to confirm that the summons came from the end of the Yellow Springs.

That end is not the place where the demon is sealed, but in a deeper place.

However, she wasn't in a hurry. After attending Gu Fei's coming-of-age ceremony, she could come back here to investigate further.

And having not been back for so long, she also missed that little guy, Wushuang.

……

Saint Dan City, Dan Tower.

Several years later, Venerable Feng, Yao Chen's soul, Xiao Yan and the others returned to this place once again.

In ancient times, when people came of age, they would send invitations to certain forces on the mainland to attend the ceremony.

However, not all forces can receive an invitation. At least, the Starfall Pavilion is not qualified. That's why Elder Yao came to the Pill Tower for help. He will then enter the Ancient Realm with the people from the Pill Tower.

"Old man, are you really sure?" Xuan Kongzi took out a jade tablet and asked Yao Chen very seriously.

"Yes, this time, the ancient clan is holding a coming-of-age ceremony, and outsiders finally have the opportunity to enter the ancient realm!" Yao Lao nodded. "Now, only the people of that ancient clan can revive me. If I miss this opportunity, I might have to be a wandering ghost for the rest of my life..."

"Alright, this time you'll stay in Xiao Yan's storage ring. I'll take Feng Xian and Xiao Yan with me into the Ancient Realm!"

Xuan Kongzi nodded heavily.
