The Chasm Between Dou Sheng and Dou Zun
Guan Lei, the Old Ancestor of the Guan Family, was a powerful figure who had reached the peak of the Nine- Dou Zun.
In terms of strength, he is considered a top-tier existence among all Dou Zun beings in the Central Plains.
However, Guan Lei, the Old Ancestor of the Guan Family, did not continue his cultivation after reaching the peak of the Nine- Dou Zun.
The Dou Zun Nine Revolutions is not something he can handle.
It's not true that one necessarily needs to go through nine revolutions to break through from Dou Zun to Dou Sheng.
It's just that Dou Zun has undergone nine transformations will be stronger when they break through to Dou Sheng.
But this does not mean that one cannot break through to the Dou Zun without undergoing nine revolutions.
With enough energy, even a nine- Dou Zun can break through to Dou Sheng.
However, those who have undergone nine cycles of Dou Zun usually break through to Dou Sheng smoothly, while those who break through directly are stuck in the awkward position of Half-Saint.
However, even if one is only Half-Saint, their strength will be much greater than that of Dou Zun.
Therefore, apart from the Eight Ancient Clans, very few people would take the path of the Nine Revolutions.
They cannot afford the enormous support required for the Nine Revolutions.
Guan Lei is one of the many people who choose to take shortcuts.
Since breaking through to the peak of the Nine- Dou Zun, he has been preparing to break through to the Half-Saint.
Breaking through to the Half-Saint requires a great deal of high-level resources, and he has basically gathered them all by now.
The only thing needed is a Ninth-grade Pills as a catalyst.
However, even Dou Sheng) level expert would covet Ninth-grade Pills.
He's just a peak Dou Zun, how could he possibly have access to Ninth-grade Pills?
The strongest alchemist he could access was only an eighth-rank alchemist.
Even so, that Eighth Rank Alchemist was arrogant and didn't take him seriously.
Not to mention the even more noble Ninth Rank Alchemist.
I'm afraid we won't even have a chance to meet.
Therefore, in order to obtain a Ninth-grade Pills, Guan Lei established the Guan clan in Zhichi City and opened a market in Zhichi City by using a spatial wormhole.
They have collected almost all the treasures from the border states.
Although the border states are extremely poor, their sparse population means that even if they possess treasures, no one will recognize them.
Thanks to the Guan family's scavenging, the bitter tea seeds immediately swelled up.
Inside, Guan Lei found what he considered to be the most valuable treasure.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint was an existence that came Infinity close to becoming Dou Di tens of thousands of years ago. Legend has it that the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint was invincible across the continent with the help of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.
Unfortunately, he was too invincible and could not find an opponent, which caused him to have some mental problems and Soul Dissolution.
However, it left behind a place to hide the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.
When he first obtained this Partial Map, he had considered finding the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame to escape from the Dou Sheng.
Unfortunately, there are no records of when this Partial Map was collected, so we don't know which continent it came from.
This has resulted in the Partial Map remaining Partial Map.
According to the original story Guan Lei should have taken the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map to the Space Transaction Meeting to auction it off because he had no other choice, and successfully exchanged it for a Ninth-grade Pills.
However, due to Zhu Zhuqing's actions, the situation on the mainland will change drastically in the near future, so the Space Transaction Meeting will not be able to start at all.
So if she really went to the Space Transaction Meeting to wait, she would have truly lost her "fate" with this Partial Map.
It was precisely because of the need to forcibly reconnect this severed bond that Zhu Zhuqing's Power of Destiny was almost completely depleted.
After all, Zhu Zhuqing originally did not know the origin of this Partial Map, and the future situation on the mainland was no longer something Zhu Zhuqing understood.
Furthermore, this Partial Map is also related to a peak Dou Sheng and a Six-star Dou Sheng's Heavenly Flames.
Therefore, the cost of continuing the relationship will be higher.
Although Guan Lei didn't care much about the Guan Family, and the most basic reason for the Guan Family's existence was actually to find Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for him.
But at least he has a son and a grandson.
He received a spiritual connection the moment Guan Yu died.
Almost instantly, he spread his Spiritual Power outwards, and once he looked, he immediately understood the whole story.
"Please, Your Majesty, spare my life!"
A flash of Heavenly Foundation Blood Lightning, and a middle-aged man with white hair dressed in red knelt directly in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
He had only heard of such power—the ability to alter the rules of heaven and earth with a mere gesture—in legends.
Moreover, the Dou Zun Ring behind him is gone, isn't that a sign that he has absorbed all the power into himself?
Aside from the Dou Sheng, he couldn't think of anyone else with such power to change the predetermined course of events.
"Dou Sheng"—what a beautiful term! The realm he had pursued his entire life had actually appeared before him today.
Let alone just being a son or grandson, even if he were made to be a grandson, he wouldn't be able to do it.
He didn't want to experience the terror of Dou Sheng firsthand.
"Isn't that the Guan Family Old Ancestor? Why is he kneeling? Brother, why are you kneeling too?"
"Nonsense, the Guan Family Old Ancestor is a peak Dou Zun, and didn't you hear him Dou Zun a Saint? You can tell he's a Dou Sheng just by listening to that!"
"Do you expect to stand if you don't kneel?"
"What?! Dou Sheng?!"
In the eyes of ordinary people, Dou Huang is already a strong person, Dou Zong is even rarer, and Dou Zun is an extremely rare existence.
The Dou Sheng was someone I'd only ever heard of in legends.
But now they actually have the good fortune to meet a Dou Sheng.
And he also has the protection of a Dou Sheng?
This is the greatest honor for ordinary people like them; they might even be able to reopen a page in their family genealogy when they get back.
Guan Lei's kneeling was so thorough that it shocked both Xiao Yixian and Cai Lin.
According to the content of the storybook, shouldn't this person be extremely angry and rush up to fight the Young Mistress (Sister Zhuqing) for three days and three nights before being killed?
How can you kneel so smoothly?
"The gap between Dou Zun and Dou Sheng is like an insurmountable chasm. Dou Sheng can kill a Dou Zun with a single slap, and this gap only widens as the game progresses."
Don't let his current status as a peak Nine- Dou Zun fool you; against a powerhouse like his sister, who has reached the ninth level and broken through to Dou Sheng, he couldn't even withstand a single finger strike.
Gu Xun'er has been reading ancient books of the Ancient Clan for many years and has a clear understanding of the difference in strength in the later stages.
In the early stages of cultivating battle qi, one can fight beyond one's level or rank, but in the later stages, it becomes impossible to fight beyond one's level.
Even if you fight in the early game, you might not be able to beat them in the mid-game.
After hearing what Gu Xun'er said Guan Lei became even more convinced of Zhu Zhuqing's identity Dou Sheng, and he lowered his head even further.
Seeing Guan Lei trembling in Guan Lei Zhu Zhuqing had no interest in killing him.
He... is quite sensible.
Moreover, he had no intention of avenging his son and grandson.
Guan Lei felt a chill run through his body, as if he couldn't see through anything inside or out, which made him even more terrified.
"Hand over the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map, and I'll spare your life!"
Zhu Zhuqing spoke slowly.
Guan Lei's pupils contracted sharply, but without any hesitation, he took out a box with both hands and handed it up without even raising his head.
A gentle breeze swept by, Guan Lei felt a lightness in his hand, and then the world instantly fell silent.
