That night, the father and son stayed up all night.

Chen Binglan poured wine for the two of them, but Gu Yuanqing sent her back to rest in the middle of the night because she was pregnant.

Once Gu Yuanqing regained his composure, the atmosphere on North Spring Mountain immediately became cheerful.

As the North Spring Mountain Master, everything in the Mountain moved according to his will, and even the flowers, plants and trees in the Mountain seemed to become more vibrant.

Gu Yuanying also talked with Gu Yuanqing for a long time.

At this time, she was elegant and graceful, with a large family of children.

The two started talking about the Gu Family.

Gu Yuanxuan's father, Gu Hongyu, lost his position as heir apparent, was imprisoned in a separate courtyard, drank heavily every day, and eventually died in despair.

Prince Gu broke through to the Dao Embryo realm, but retired to live out his remaining years in peace.

The Gu Family was inherited by the third son of the Gu Hongcheng, but he was merely a leisurely Prince who did not concern himself with state affairs.

Only among the fourth generation of the Gu Family, there was a son named Gu Guangning who was quite promising and worked in the War Ministry.

The Gu Family were founding generals who assisted the late Emperor Li Family in establishing his empire, and their title of king, though not of the same surname, was hereditary.

During the reign of Li Haotian's father, Prince Gu once again made great contributions, enjoying immense prestige and wielding immense power.

Subsequently, Prince Gu withdrew from public life and bided his time. After the incident with Gu Yuanxuan, his title was reduced by one rank, and he has not fallen into poverty since.

However, because of Gu Yuanqing's existence, even in their decline, no one dared to provoke them, so they lived a carefree life.

Gu Yuanqing had no particular relationship with the other members of the Gu Family, so after a few words, he stopped talking.

Two days later, Li Chengyi led his group down the mountain and returned to Fengtian City.

The white fox stood on the tree, watching Li Chengyi's departing figure, and silently made a decision.

And North Spring Mountain fell silent once more.

He then focused his attention back on his spiritual practice.

"It's best not to go to the Ancient Realm Red Dust Wine can mitigate the impact of Dao Soul Years, the Dao Soul I've gained in the past six months is comparable to what I've gained in three hundred years of enlightenment. It still needs time to settle and truly become part of my own Dao practice."

"Besides, given the nature of the Sanyang Sect, they might very well have set up an ambush in the area where I left the Ancient Realm. Going in now would only be like walking into a trap. Although I'm not too afraid of ordinary Celestial Person in the Ancient Realm right now, there's no need to fight this pointless battle."

"However, we need to pay attention to the Demon Realm. The Human-Demon War is escalating. According to the Sacred Hall Master, the Human Race seems to be plotting something big."

Gu Yuanqing sat cross-legged atop the mountain, closing his eyes to gaze upon the Void Heaven World.

"I must say, in my previous state, with a pure and focused mind, the speed at which I propelled the Transformation of the Void Heaven World was astonishing, even to myself. It was at least three points faster than it is now."

"Because of a different State of Mind, I can't completely return to that state, but this is my own realization. It won't disappear as my mind recovers, but it can serve as a template for reference."

Gu Yuanqing adjusted his mind, purifying his thoughts and entering a state of emptiness and tranquility.

Following the usual pattern, it didn't take long before I entered this realm.

However, one cannot simply enter a cultivation realm; the real challenge lies in maintaining that realm while practicing the Cultivation Method.

This is what it means to truly restrain the restless mind and tame the wandering will.

Another day passed in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, Gu Yuanqing's mind stirred, and he broke out of his cultivation state, appearing in the Demon Realm at North Spring Mountain.

He stood up, activated his Void Piercing Heavenly Eye, and gazed into the distance.

From the direction of the Human Race, a Azure Light illuminated half the sky.

Before the blue light, a black beam of light shot into the Horizon.

A faint Tiger Roar's roar echoed through the Heaven and Earth.

"Human Race, how dare you!"

A chilling aura wafted from afar.

"The ultimate Heavenly Human Great Demon Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change has erupted. Judging from that voice, it should be the Tiger Lord of the Demon Race. Could that black pillar of light be... the aura of the Underground Cave!"

Gu Yuanqing has been in the Dragon Demon Domain for decades and has a good understanding of the situation there. Only this could enrage the Demon Race so much.

Gu Yuanqing suddenly turned around and saw three streaks of light heading towards the Human Territory from the Depths of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

Behind them, countless Demon Race followed, their Yao Qi filling the sky with dark clouds.

"The Human-Demon War has finally broken out completely. I wonder what the Heavenly Human Sacred Hall is planning. Almost all the Demon Race experts have come out. Can they withstand it?" Gu Yuanqing muttered to himself.

Although there is a feud with the Heavenly Human Sacred Hall, with the Heavenly Human Sacred Hall destroyed, the Human Race of millions of people in this world will no longer exist.

In this Demon Realm, he became the only target of the Demon Race.

However, he was powerless to change the current situation.

Well!

A soft sigh.

In the distance, the aftershocks of the ongoing battle could be heard.

A figure hundreds of feet tall could be vaguely seen standing in the air, exuding the aura of various Spell Art and Divine Ability powers, with colorful lights occasionally blooming and illuminating the sky.

Xiong Mo's figure suddenly appeared beside North Spring Mountain.

"Human Race has finally reached this point. However, the gradual increase in Demonic Qi in this realm foreshadowed today's events, though we didn't expect it to happen so quickly."

Xiong Mo turned his head and glanced at them, then said, "Perhaps the Human Race of today will be the Iron Eater Tribe of tomorrow. Daoist Friend, have you thought about where you will go from here?"

Gu Yuanqing was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly, "If the Demon Race wants to do anything, I will accept it all. Although I am alone, killing me will not be so easy."

Xiong Mo slowly said, "It's not just the Demon Race, but also the Underground Cave Magic Beast Demon Race. The demon race is also a living being, and knows how to seek advantage and avoid harm. If there is no direct conflict, they will not rashly start a war. But the Devil Beast are different. They have no reason, are extremely bloodthirsty, and will attack any living being they see, fearless of death."

Gu Yuanqing stared at the towering black pillar. "Is that the aura of the Underground Cave?"

Xiong Mo nodded and said, "That's right. The Demonic Qi in this Boundary Domain has increased, and the Demonic Qi in the Underground Cave is even more so. The Human Race will never give up guarding the Underground Cave unless absolutely necessary, so as not to give the Demon Race an excuse to attack. All of this shows that they can't hold on any longer!"

As they were speaking, an even stronger aura emanated from the scene.

Xiong Mo's gaze sharpened slightly. "The aura of Half-step Yin-Yang cultivator... Yan Zongsheng is desperately using the Human Race Grand Array formation."

Suddenly, another Dragon Roar was heard. Gu Yuanqing was very familiar with this sound; it was Ao Guang's Ancient Dragon Language.

"It's a pity it's too far away; I can't see it clearly."

Gu Yuanqing felt a little regretful; such a great battle was a rare sight.

In the blink of an eye, an incense stick's worth of time had passed, and the battle over there was still not over.

But Gu Yuanqing suddenly saw black mist scattering from within the black pillar of light that shot into the sky.

Xiong Mo's expression changed, and a Split Soul suddenly disappeared, returning to the Bamboo Mountain.

The next second, the Iron Eater Tribe's Grand Formation suddenly activated, with a shimmering barrier protecting the entire territory. A huge Iron Eater Beast stood up and roared angrily.

The black mist arrived quickly. As it drew nearer, Gu Yuanqing realized it wasn't mist at all, but rather a series of strangely shaped monsters with glowing red eyes and ferocious appearances...

Uh, I'm sorry, it's so late.
