Behind North Spring Mountain, Repentance Cliff.

Chen Zhengfeng's smile faded, and he fell silent.

Tong Yuefei walked over. "Seeing your sudden disappearance, you must have been summoned by Young Master Gu... What did they talk about?"

Chen Zhengfeng said calmly, "I've said everything that needed to be said."

Tong Yuefei hesitated, then said, "You..."

Chen Zhengfeng sneered, "What can't be said? Since the Soul Seal has been planted, your Life and Death are no longer in your own hands, so you can only accept your fate. Besides, only Celestial Person can master the Spatial Power. With Young Master Gu's cultivation level, what difference does it make whether I speak or not?"

"Celestial Person being? How could Heavenly Human in this Floating World? With his cultivation level, how could he only be at the Heavenly Ladder Twenty-Second Step?" Tong Yuefei shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Chen Zhengfeng said, "Things have come to this point, there's no use thinking too much. Those Who Know the Times Are Heroes; survival is the most important thing."

Then both of them fell silent. With their cultivation at the ninth level of the Divine Platform Ninth Layer, they were important figures in the Slanting Moon World. Would they really be willing to have their Soul Seal planted and become servants? All of this was just to survive.

Gu Yuanqing raised his hand to summon teacups and tea, and poured tea for the four people in the pavilion.

He, Chen Shian, Li Haotian, and Li Chengguo sat in the pavilion and discussed the matter for an entire afternoon.

By evening, a plan was finally devised.

Li Haotian stood up and said, "Yuanqing, I'll have to trouble you to escort me back to the palace. I wonder what's going on inside since you suddenly disappeared."

Gu Yuanqing turned his head and glanced at him, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty need not worry. Cheng Yi guessed that it was I who invited you here. Everything is fine in Fengtian City."

Li Haotian was immediately relieved and laughed heartily, "I am quite satisfied with this child and have already prepared to choose a day to make him my heir. I'm informing you of this today as well."

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "He's not a child anymore; he can decide this himself."

Li Haotian, "Then that's fine. I've already spoken with Cheng Yi, and he has no objections."

Gu Yuanqing said with a half-smile, "Your Majesty, I've heard that there are quite a few dissenting voices within the Imperial Family."

Li Haotian snorted coldly, "Who dares to object to my decisions?"

Gu Yuanqing smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and said, "Then I will escort His Majesty back to the palace. I will send these few Divine Platform Cultivator from the Outer Realm down the mountain in a few days. I will not interfere in the specific matters thereafter; it is up to the three seniors."

Li Shi'an hesitated for a moment, "However, they are all experts at the ninth level of the Divine Platform Ninth Layer Realm. Our cultivation is low, and they may not listen to what we say."

Gu Yuanqing snorted and said, "That's not up to them. Senior Li doesn't need to worry about these things. If they aren't properly instructed, then they have no reason to live."

Li Shi'an finally smiled, "Since you've said that, we can proceed with our plan without worry."

Li Haotian rose and cupped his hands in greeting. "Yuanqing, Grand Uncle, Imperial Uncle, then I shall take my leave."

"Your Majesty, please proceed." Li Shi'an nodded.

Prince Qing also bowed in greeting.

With a wave of his hand, Gu Yuanqing escorted Li Haotian back to the Imperial Palace. He then took his leave and returned to the mountaintop.

Standing in his courtyard, he focused his gaze, using his Void Piercing Heavenly Eye to observe the world. He also activated the Mountain Observation Empowerment observe the Heaven and Earth outside North Spring Mountain, only to find that Wang Yuchi from the Wang Family was still nowhere to be seen.

Then, he summoned Chen Zhengfeng and Tong Yuefei, asked them some questions, and then sent them back to the back mountain.

Just then, Aunt Feng brought over some food. Gu Yuanqing hadn't eaten in a long time, and enjoying the wine under the Sun and Moon was quite a treat.

The next morning.

Gu Yuanqing released Bai Xianghui from the Sky Burning Tower.

It seems your Second Brother has no intention of changing his mind.

Bai Xianghui's expression changed, and he quickly said, "Young Master Gu, give me some time, and I'm sure I can persuade my Second Brother."

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "Alright, I'll give you some more time. However, my patience is limited. Keeping an enemy with no value is pointless. I hope you understand."

"I see!"

"It's good that you know. If this realm weren't short of people, I wouldn't have had so much time to teach you. If you dared to cross over, I would have killed you with a single sword strike long ago. If you can be used by me, what harm is there in letting you live after the World Conflict?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Xianghui's eyes lit up. Wasn't this the very thing he had been so obsequious for? Even if it wasn't entirely true, it at least gave him hope, didn't it?

"Young Master Gu, rest assured, I will do my utmost to complete whatever you arrange. I only hope you will spare my second Second Brother's life; after all, he is my brother from the same mother."

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "You should try to persuade him first."

They then sent it back into the Sky Burning Tower.

He then looked towards the Great Zhou Kingdom. The World Conflict was a matter for the entire Floating World, and he couldn't expect the Great Qian to be the only one to help.

The Great Zhou Imperial Palace is also located within the Mountain Observation area.

Under the gaze of the Void Piercing Heavenly Eye, seeing that he was attending the morning court session, Gu Yuanqing continued to ponder the Cultivation Method.

Nine years have passed, and he has long since reached the Peak the Divine Platform Fourth Level. His Divine Soul, in its natural state, is already nearly seventy feet tall.

Zhang Xuanlin once said that in ancient times, the Divine Platform Realm was originally called the Primordial Spirit Realm. The Divine Soul would also grow during cultivation, and one could break through to the Void Heaven Realm. However, without the help of external objects, the progress of cultivation would be much slower.

The Divine Soul Grand Formation not only has the effect of Divine Soul Tempering, but also protects the Divine Soul. Using its power will multiply one's strength.

In ancient times, Divine Platform Formation, those in the early stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm dared not easily step outside their bodies, as they would be eroded by the Outer Realm forces, and if they were not careful, they would even perish from their Divine Soul. As a result, high-level Cultivator were extremely rare, and those who could Celestial Person were one in a thousand years.

Later, a Mighty Figure predecessor created this realm, which led to the flourishing of cultivation today.

Gu Yuanqing's Divine Soul Grand Formation has undergone some changes compared to the past, as he has also incorporated the Formless Heart Sutra into it.

This kind of Celestial Person Cultivation Method is far superior to the previous Divine Platform Method. Many of its unique features are the result of countless talented Cultivator summarizing and revising it over countless years.

Gu Yuanqing absorbed its essence, which enabled him to overcome the Divine Platform Seventh Level with the Divine Platform Fourth Level.

The Formless Heart Sutra is far more compatible with the path that Gu Yuanqing cultivates than any other Cultivation Method he has practiced before!

Unlike ordinary Cultivator, Gu Yuanqing comprehends the Dao by Mountain Gazing Enlightenment, and the Dao he comprehends is very diverse and numerous. In contrast, most Cultivator, even after exhausting all their efforts, can only comprehend one or two Dao Resonance, and their Cultivation Method are also biased towards this.

The Formless Heart Sutra, which uses Wuxiang to transform into Myriad Forms and uses the mind to govern all paths, coincides perfectly with Gu Yuanqing's Mountain Gazing Enlightenment!

It took him nine years to reach the Divine Platform Fourth Level. The reason for this was that he continuously integrated the Formless Heart Sutra into his own Cultivation Method and made up for the shortcomings that he had not discovered before from the foundation.

The Celestial Person Cultivation Method is profound and extensive. The person who created this technique may not be less talented than Gu Yuanqing, who Empowerment North Spring Mountain. Any changes are extremely difficult, and even today, the technique is still not fully mastered.

As the morning passed, Gu Yuanqing had gained more insights.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the Great Zhou Emperor all alone, which triggered the Heavenly Fishing Method, pulling him into the North Spring Mountain!
