Gu Xun'er Enters the Heavenly Tomb
Gu Clan, Ancient Realm.
Qing Shan, with wisps of smoke rising from chimneys.
Although the previous great battle caused heavy losses to the elite of the Gu Clan, everything remained peaceful and tranquil for the lowest-ranking descendants in the Ancient Realm.
Above a precipitous mountain range, two figures suddenly appeared—it was Gu Yuan and his daughter Gu Xun'er, who had already returned to the Ancient Realm ...
"Xun'er, are you sure you want to enter this canopy?" Gu Yuan asked seriously.
The Sky Curtain is a special space passed down from ancient times, containing the tombs of many powerful figures, the strongest of whom was the former supreme expert, Xiao Xuan.
In the original novel, Xiao Yan was able to improve his strength so quickly in the later stages, and the Heavenly Curtain and Xiao Xuan within it played a huge role in this.
This Heavenly Tomb space is extremely mysterious, containing the energy imprints of many ancient powerful beings. Moreover, these imprints have transformed into their former appearances over the years. As long as you defeat them, you can obtain the energy imprints, absorb them, and thus enhance your strength.
This is incredibly powerful; it's almost as good as the cheat code on Mo Tang...
These powerful energy imprints are equivalent to countless high-level pills, and they can be continuously consumed without losing much of their effectiveness!
After his death, in order to avoid being harmed by the Soul Clan, Xiao Xuan voluntarily handed over the Sky Canopy to the Gu Clan for protection, which was also to leave a last glimmer of hope for the Xiao Clan.
Unfortunately, after Xiao Yan's death, the Xiao Clan in this world was destined to have no hope of rising again.
Gu Xun'er nodded firmly and said, "Yes, Father. After this battle, I feel that I have found an opportunity to break through. I must seize this opportunity to improve my strength!"
Having experienced the previous battles, and especially after witnessing Mo Tang's power, Gu Xun'er's desire for strength had never been stronger.
Although the Gu Clan open the sky curtain once every so often, allowing the talented disciples of various ancient races to enter and seek opportunities, it is still very dangerous for Xiao Xun'er to be alone.
Gu Xun'er is currently Five-star Dou Sheng, but there are still beings in that Heavenly Tomb that could pose a danger to her, in fact, there are quite a few...
This made Gu Yuan somewhat worried about Gu Xun'er's decision.
Seeing his daughter's unwavering resolve, Gu Yuan ultimately did not object...
Moreover, the Gu Clan of today truly need a young clan leader who has grown up to be capable of shouldering the responsibilities of the entire race...
Dou Di!
This realm held no less allure for Gu Yuan than the Hun Tiandi.
Hun Tiandi completely gave up everything in order to break through, and to some extent, Gu Yuan even admired him.
Unfortunately, he's not the kind of crazy person who can go to that extent.
But if the opportunity really came, he would definitely not mind fighting for it...
The Heavenly Tomb opens once every twenty years, and if you calculate the time, there are still more than ten years until the next opening.
Of course, this does not mean that you cannot enter at other times.
With Gu Yuan's strength, opening the Heavenly Tomb space would be a piece of cake, but...
"I will forcibly tear open the crack in the Heavenly Tomb in a moment and let you enter. But remember, do not stay in the Heavenly Tomb for more than a year, otherwise it will cause the Heavenly Tomb to reject you!" Gu Yuan said in a deep voice.
Gu Xun'er nodded seriously in response to her father's reminder.
The wonder of the Heavenly Tomb lies not only in its Energy Body, but more importantly, in the fact that the flow of time within it differs from that outside...
Five days in the Heavenly Tomb are equivalent to one day in the outside world. In other words, a year in the Heavenly Tomb is only a little over two months in the outside world.
Although people all over the continent are searching for the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion, it is very difficult to find it in such a short time.
If Gu Xun'er can emerge from seclusion before the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion appears, then Gu Yuan can entrust the Gu Clan to her with greater peace of mind, and fight for this last hope without any worries!
Seeing that Gu Xun'er was prepared, Gu Yuan said no more. With a wave of his hand, the energy between heaven and earth surged forth...
Faintly, the sound of rushing waves could be heard, and then the void space suddenly began to fluctuate violently.
A pitch-black crack was slowly and forcibly torn open, and from within that crack, an unusually ancient and primal aura emanated.
"Careful!"
After giving a final word of advice, Gu Yuan saw his daughter transform into a streak of light, plunge straight into the crack, and disappear.
"Everything will be alright..."
The faint sounds coming from his mouth seemed more like attempts to comfort himself.
The Heavenly Tomb is shrouded in a misty fog; solitude and silence seem to be the only dominant themes in this world.
The hazy space suddenly distorted, and a figure appeared, stepping into the air...
Gu Xun'er glanced around at her surroundings, her cold, pretty face remaining unchanged.
This wasn't the first time she'd seen this scene. She'd already entered when the Heavenly Tomb opened last time, and the reason she was able to improve her cultivation level so quickly was because she'd gained tremendous benefits from Heavenly Tomb last time.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Xun'er unleashed a violent gust of wind around her and swiftly rushed towards the deepest part of the Heavenly Tomb...
As for the Heavenly Tomb Gale that posed a great threat to her last time, it no longer poses any threat to Gu Xun'er now.
The Heavenly Tomb is divided into three layers. The Energy Body in the first layer are mostly Dou Zun below Three Stars, who are in a state of mindless wandering. They are not too difficult to deal with, but they are not very useful to Gu Xun'er in the current state.
As for the Energy Body in the second layer, although it already possessed the strength of Dou Zun at Three Stars or above but below eight stars, it still did not meet Gu Xun'er's requirements.
Time was limited, so Gu Xun'er had to capture as many Energy Body as possible at the Dou Saint level, because only energy imprints of this level could help her improve her cultivation.
Therefore, Gu Xun'er's goal this time was very clear: she was heading straight for the Third Layer of the Heavenly Tomb!
However, this journey was destined to be anything but peaceful...
Deep within the Heavenly Tomb, in a rocky area, a figure clad in blood-red armor sat cross-legged atop a towering stone pillar. Beside him, a Blood Saber exuded a strong, pungent smell of blood.
There were also many Energy Body in the surrounding rocky forest, but when they looked at the blood-red figure, they were filled with fear and dared not make a sound to disturb him.
Just then...
"Laugh!"
A piercing sound of wind breaking echoed in the sky.
There were many figures in the chaotic rock forest, but there were no particularly loud sounds. Therefore, when the rapid whooshing sound rang out in the sky, many Energy Body in this area who had reached the Peak Dou Zun the Nine Revolutions Dou Zun suddenly stood up, their eyes flashing with cold light as they stared in the direction from which the whooshing sound came.
