Inexhaustible

The fourth Supreme Elder of the Purgatory Sect?

His expression Gu Jinlai.

The Purgatory Sect actually showed such great sincerity, directly allowing him to enter the highest level of the sect?

This approach demonstrates genuine sincerity.

However, he always felt it was very strange.

Your Purgatory Sect...

It's the Demonic Sect.

The Demonic Sect operates on the principle that if you offend me, it's a fight to the death.

The elder died, the senior elder took over, the senior elder died, the grand elder took over, the grand elder died...

Cough cough.

The entire family was wiped out.

Move on to the next one.

That's what makes it fit the definition of a fight to the death.

In short...

He felt that ever since that Supreme Elder named Liu Jingtao appeared, the way the Purgatory Sect operated had started to go wrong.

No!

It wasn't just Liu Jingtao.

Thinking Gu Jinlai to the information he received from a meteorite guard last night...

He suddenly felt as if the heavens and earth were conspiring with him.

Everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction.

Neither Dragon Sparrow Manor nor Purgatory Sect had any intention of fighting him to the death.

The Cold Moon Sect and the Yellow Spring Sect also remained calm, adopting an attitude of not wanting to be his enemy.

He thought that Qi Fenglei and Xue Yue of the State Lord's Mansion should form an alliance and discuss with Longque Manor to have Longque Manor send another Supreme Elder to avenge the deaths of Wang Yinfeng and Ye Wuxia.

Meanwhile, they quickly contacted the Cold Moon Sect.

Isn't the Cold Moon Sect worried about not being able to defend Blue Province?

Welcome south of Star Province!

I'll give you a home in more than a dozen cities.

To this end, he specifically mobilized the channels of the Xuzhen Tower and used his privilege as the Silver Sword Envoy to keep a close eye on the Cold Moon Sect's every move.

As a result, the Cold Moon Sect, Dragon Sparrow Manor, Yellow Spring Sect...

Nothing happened.

"Lord Gu, what are your thoughts?"

At this moment, Lu Zhanfeng asked again, looking at him intently.

"To become the fourth Supreme Elder of the Purgatory Sect..."

Gu Jinlai a moment's thought, Gu Jinlai smiled and said, "I have lived in the Purgatory Sect for more than fifty years. I grew up listening to the legendary stories of the Purgatory Sect's elders. If I can walk alongside these legends now, it would be my greatest honor."

"Hahaha, with the addition of Gu Tianjun, our Purgatory Sect will surely be even stronger and reach new heights."

Lu Zhanfeng laughed and gestured, "Please take a look, Grand Elder Gu. These people are all subordinates arranged by the sect for the Grand Elders to serve and be at your disposal. Although you can take Star Province without them with the power you have, their help will save you some effort."

Lu Zhanfeng glanced behind him Gu Jinlai.

He brought more than three hundred people with him.

Of these three hundred or so people, nine were True Person of Spirit Refining.

The remaining ones are those at the Core Forming, Gang Condensing, and Qi Refining stages, as well as stewards and supervisors.

Its size was even larger than the ranks of those who had joined the Star Alliance and were under his command.

If you add Lu Zhanfeng, Shi Chen, and Sha Wujin, three Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators, the Star Heaven Alliance simply can't compare.

This scene immediately gave Zhan Hongying a sense of urgency.

They thought that Lingxiao City had few experts at the Core Forming and Spirit Refining stages, and that with the Star Heaven Alliance's allegiance, they could quickly fill the gap, establish merit, and rise to prominence. Little did they expect...

The Purgatory Sect actually sent people over.

Compared to the number and quality of the experts from the Purgatory Sect, the Starry Sky Alliance's 130-odd people were completely outmatched.

"No, we need Alliance Leader Nie... Sect Leader Nie needs to send more people, and they must perform well in the upcoming battle so that Lord Gu can see the value of our Star Heaven Alliance."

Zhan Hongying secretly made up his mind.

"With the help of all the sect elders, protectors, and deacons, the great undertaking can be accomplished."

Gu Jinlai, looking at Gu Chaoyang: "The next operation will definitely be much easier. Perhaps our manpower will only need to be responsible for occupying the city. Without further ado, let's set off now."

"Yes."

Gu Chaoyang bowed in agreement and quickly returned to the army.

Gu Jinlai glanced at the Starry Sky Alliance and then at the Purgatory Sect members, pondered for a moment, and said, "Since we have the numbers and strength, we might as well split into two groups and drive out the forces of Dragon Sparrow Manor and the State Lord's Mansion as quickly as possible."

"I will obey the orders of the Ancient Heavenly Lord."

Zhan Hongying readily agreed.

Lu Dengxian and the others also spoke up, saying, "We are willing to obey the orders of the Supreme Elder."

"Good."

Gu Jinlai, strategic arrangements have been made quickly.

In fact, when Longque Manor learned of the deaths of Wang Yinfeng, Ye True Lord, and four Primordial Spirit Transformation cultivators, it had already gathered its forces and withdrawn from Star Province.

They knew very well that, having suffered heavy losses in Star Province, they had lost the right to compete with Gu Jinlai.

They even had to tighten their defenses to prevent Gu Jinlai invading Dragon Sparrow Manor in retaliation.

He is a human being, not Demonic Beasts.

The Demonic Beasts were so large that they could not hide themselves.

But a human cultivator...

He is a powerful cultivator capable of killing two Primordial Spirit True Lord. If he were to infiltrate Dragon Sparrow Manor and Dragon Sparrow Manor did not have enough power to restrain him, the destructive force he would bring would be devastating.

Almost all the Nascent Spirit Transformation and Spirit Refining cultivators from Longque Manor withdrew, leaving behind a few Core Forming and Gang Condensing cultivators who were clinging to hope and trying to maintain the situation.

It would take them very little effort to reclaim the four cities they controlled.

On the contrary, the state lord's mansion still has the patriarchs of the Three Great Families and Xue Yue's four Nascent Spirit Transformation, so we need to be more careful.

At that moment, Gu Jinlai arranged for Shi Chen, Sha Wujin, and Nie Shisan, who arrived later and also wanted to contribute, to join forces with High Antiquity Chifeng, Gu Luochen, Gu Yunxin, and other demon god warriors to head straight for the area occupied by Longque Mountain Manor.

He, along with Lu Zhanfeng, Gu Chaoyang, Gu Qingmei, Gu Xiliu, and others, headed straight for the state lord's headquarters—Starlight City.

After occupying Starlight City, they spread their influence far and wide, further controlling the surrounding four cities of Star Rain, Star Snow, Star Wind, and Star Frost.

After the arrangements were made, the people and horses separated.

The 10,000 elite troops were divided into 5,000 each, and marched in different directions.

Each team has hundreds of Gang Condensing and Core Forming Formation cultivators, as well as several Spirit Refining. In addition, there are the Demon God Guards led by High Antiquity Chifeng, Gu Qingmei, and others. The duty of these 10,000 elite troops is probably to clean up the mess after they occupy the city walls, guard the prisoners, and maintain order.

The procession moves forward.

Sitting atop MetalGreymon Gu Jinlai finally had a moment to catch his breath.

Considering that Starlight City is the main base of the state lord's mansion and has a complex web of power, and given that it's unknown whether there are any hidden Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord inside, he should strengthen himself first, since he doesn't have the Heavenly Sword Missiles available.

For a moment, he spared a thought and focused on his mental world.

In the spiritual world, Green Lotus blooms, surrounded by orbs of light representing the Cultivation Method.

Like the blue of Formless Sword Qi, the purple of ten thousand swords returning to their origin, and the gold of the eternal furnace, there are enough for more than a dozen.

After all, in order to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Transcendent Realm, he had to go through a process of exchanging quantity for quality.

Besides the dozen or so orbs of light, the most eye-catching feature was the fifty-one streams of clear light.

Yes!

A total of fifty-one.

This number is the highest number of starlight Gu Jinlai recorded in history.

All of this was accumulated through his tireless searching and killing of Red Name in Star Curtain City.

"Next..."

The gaze of the Gu Jinlai has turned to the eternal furnace.

This is his core Cultivation Method.

Naturally, it should be prioritized for improvement.

A moment later, Gu Jinlai realized something.

Something's not right!

There were so many different colored orbs of light surrounding his conscious figure that they obscured the Karma aura emanating from him, causing him to fail to notice it when he turned his attention to it...

"How come my Karma is decreasing so quickly?"

He was quite surprised to see the layer of Karma fire that was yellowish with a hint of white.

Six floors!

His Karma has actually dropped to level six!

His Karma had indeed been decreasing during this period, but according to his estimation, Karma should have been around level eleven. However, it has now dropped to level six...

Gu Jinlai, we have looked around with our eyes.

He was circulating the Qian Tian purple qi Technique, observing the changes in the fortune of the area surrounding Star Province.

In just two days, the fortunes of the entire Star Province and Star Province surrounding areas have undergone significant changes.

The fortunes of the area surrounding the governor's mansion have dimmed to an extreme degree, and it is on the verge of collapse.

However, another aura of fortune rose up, replacing the original fortune of the state lord's mansion. This aura resonated faintly with the fortune of Lingxiao City behind him, seemingly merging into one, and further spreading, with a tendency to cover the entire Star Province.

Furthermore, there's the connection between his own fortune and the fortune of the Western Purgatory Sect...

"Therefore, because I disrupted the political landscape of the states south of the Milky Way and brought about changes in the order, my Karma decreased by five levels in a very short period of time..."

Gu Jinlai, people have gained insights from their hearts.

The changes in Karma are reflected outwards, and the most obvious change is that he can do things much more smoothly.

Just like when he first transmigrated into the body of "Gu Jinlai" in Changjun City, he was constantly pursued and killed.

And now...

If he were to Core Forming Formation stage, the forces that had been holding back, such as Dragon Sparrow Manor, the State Lord's Mansion, and Cold Moon Sect, would definitely make another move. Core Forming, Spirit Refining, and even Spirit Transformation cultivators would all jump out to kill him.

However, because he doesn't have much negative Karma, more people will try to save him.

Like the members of the Gu Clan, like Xin Tianqi, the Meteor Guard.

Even...

Purgatory Sect.

"Karma is just a reference. The only person I can truly rely on is myself."

Gu Jinlai, attention has shifted from the Karma surrounding consciousness to the pure light.

With a thought, beams of clear light poured into the sphere of light represented by the "Eternal Furnace".

As the clear light was poured in, Gu Jinlai closed their eyes and quietly comprehended it.

The Eternal Furnace is a fusion of the Great Sun Ninefold Refinement Visualization Method and the Great Sun Demon God Body Refinement Method, using the power of the Great Sun to temper oneself.

The essence of this Cultivation Method is the recombination and reuse of energy.

It's like changing the arrangement of atoms to turn a rock into a diamond.

The Eternal Furnace then readjusted the insignificant elements—the air he breathed in and the liquids contained in his blood—and released an even more powerful energy.

This energy, in turn, strengthens itself, enabling it to obtain more air and blood.

It goes on and on!

Life goes on and on!

This process...

"Eternal and indestructible!"

This Gu Jinlai.

The operation of the Eternal Furnace has become almost a passive skill, requiring no control from him, and constantly providing him with energy to strengthen himself.

Furthermore, even if he is seriously injured, the Eternal Furnace can help him recover quickly.

He and the Eternal Furnace seemed to have truly become one.

He is the eternal furnace.

He is the eternal furnace.

This is...

The Demonic Beasts lineage has reached the point of perfect demonic body, showing signs of giving rise to a second life form.
