Time passes slowly and day by day. Since Gu Chen returned home, no matter whether it is the Gu family, the Liu family, or the Wan family, everything has been very peaceful. It feels like a prelude to the coming storm.
Gu Chen takes Xiaobai to Lingfu Mountain to practice every day. There is no change in his daily life. The only thing that changes is that Gu Chen's cultivation is still growing rapidly every day.
The temporary situation has not changed from the previous life. I believe that there will be no major changes before the clan chief competition meeting at the end of the year. The key is after the clan chief competition meeting.
Even if Gu Chen had experience in his previous life, he couldn't guess how his father would react when he became the head of the Gu family, the first elder, or the second elder. Is it a sign of obedience? Or a firm resistance?
Obedience? Gu Cangyue has an arrogant temperament and has always regarded Gu Cangqiong as a waste. If Gu Cangqiong becomes the clan leader, Gu Cangyue will not really be able to obey.
Resistance? Gu Cangyue is not reckless. He knows how much harm the family's civil strife will do to the family. He is a member of the Gu family and has responsibilities towards the Gu family. If the Gu family is in civil strife, only the Yun and Liu families will benefit.
It's okay for the Yun family. The key is that the Liu family is powerful. If the Gu family's strength is damaged and becomes like the Yun family, then it will be difficult for the two families to join forces to stop the growth of the Liu family's power.
Gu Chen couldn't accurately judge how Gu Cangyue would react, but what Gu Chen was sure of was that if Gu Cangyue did something that would endanger the family regardless of the family's future, then Gu Chen would be ruthless and destabilize everything.
All factors are eliminated.
Gu Chen's cultivation was improving rapidly every day. Four months later, Gu Chen finally felt the barrier on the fifth level of the Xiantian Realm. This time, he did not experience a fierce battle. It took Gu Chen half a month.
After a while, he finally broke through the fifth level barrier and entered the sixth level of Xiantian Realm.
The sixth level of the Xiantian Realm is already the peak of the middle Xiantian Realm. One step further will lead to the late Xiantian Realm. The difficulty of cultivation is much higher than before.
It took four and a half months to reach the fifth level to the sixth level of the Xiantian realm. The time required from the sixth level to the seventh level will be even longer. Even if there is a spiritual pill and the continuous consumption of spiritual stones, it will take at least five or six months.
It's been months.
Now that the end of the year is only a month and a half away, it is impossible to make any further breakthroughs in cultivation. Gu Chen has focused his cultivation on the Tiangang Body Tempering Technique. At the sixth level of the Xiantian Realm, he can practice the fourth level of Tiangang Body Tempering.
After being refined into the fourth level of the Tiangang Tempered Body, Gu Chen's physical body was strengthened and was almost as fast as a ninth-level monk in the Xiantian realm. Coupled with the speed increase of the Feather Cloak, his speed was catching up with the monks in the Divine Sea realm and even faster than a ninth-level monk in the Xiantian realm.
Much more.
With Gu Chen's current strength, most monks at the seventh level of the Xiantian Realm are no match for him. With their bodies strengthened and their speed accelerated, monks at the eighth level of the Xiantian Realm have to temporarily avoid the edge.
With such strength, no one in the entire Leshui City can threaten him anymore. Unless the ninth-level Xiantian realm monk takes action, there is no way he can take advantage of Gu Chen.
There are still more than a month before the New Year's Eve. With my familiarity and experience with the Tiangang Body Tempering Technique, I should be able to reach the fourth level by the New Year's Eve. I don't have the slightest worry about Gu Cang Yue and Gu Chen.
If he can rest assured of his duties and his hard-won achievements, it would be better for him to contribute to the Gu family. If he comes up with any crooked ideas, Gu Chen won't mind killing him...
As his strength grows, Gu Chen is no longer the silly boy he was last year. The feeling of a great monk in his previous life has gradually returned to Gu Chen.
In his previous life, Gu Chen had deep hatred and hatred, but he didn't have a good temper. Anyone who offended him would be in danger. It was too easy for Gu Chen to kill a monk. With his identity as a master of elixirs, he even
You don't have to take action yourself, you just need to say a word, and if you want to see someone die, you can see their head the next day.
Of course, these are just some young people. The real big opponents were still unable to be dealt with by Gu Chen in his previous life, such as Zang Tianji. Even if Gu Chen wanted Zang Tianji to die, no one would dare to provoke Zang Tianji or encounter Zang Tianji.
Monk, let alone provoking the hidden secrets, if you keep your mouth shut and you can live in peace, then everything will be fine.
As the New Year approaches, good news comes out from Gu Cang Qiong. After more than half a year of practice, catalyzed by the remaining medicinal power of the Cleansing Pill, and the continuous consumption of high-grade Yuan Ling Dan, Gu Cang Qiong’s cultivation finally reached a new level before the year.
Entered the seventh level of the Xiantian Realm and became a strong man in the late Xiantian Realm.
As he wished, Gu Chen successfully practiced the Tiangang Body Tempering Technique to the fourth level years ago.
The cultivation of Tiangang Body Tempering is a little slower in Gu Cang Qiong than in Gu Chen. Although it has already reached the seventh level of Xiantian Realm, Tiangang Body Tempering has only just reached the third level.
However, it is very possible for a monk at the seventh level of the Xiantian Realm to defeat a monk at the eighth level of the Xiantian Realm after being strengthened by the three levels of Tiangang Tempering Body. For this clan leader competition conference, Gu Cangqiong can be said to have no pressure at all.
When the new year comes, the whole Leshui City becomes lively again, and the Gu family is no exception. Now Gu Chen has already reached 12 years old, but his body is stronger and much taller than that of a boy of 12 or 13 years old. He looks like a fifteen-year-old boy.
, a six-year-old youth.
Without exception, in this year's clan competition, Gu Chen easily won the first place in the clan. The fourth level of Xiantian Realm revealed made Gu Tai, who was still at the second level of Xiantian Realm, very disheartened.
However, the most lively event this year is not the annual clan competition, but the clan chief competition conference.
Gu Xian is already old. He has turned 70 this year. According to his ancestor's decree, he must give up his position as the patriarch.
Originally, the position of patriarch was passed from father to son from generation to generation. After the patriarch reached the age of 70, he could pass the position of patriarch to his son. However, Gu Cangqiong was not Gu Xian's son. Because of this, he was criticized by the first elder and the second elder.
Opposed, so the position of clan leader became an open competition.
All second-generation direct descendants can participate after being recommended by the elders. After the clan competition, there will be a big competition. The winner will be the patriarch of the Gu family in the future.
Gu Cangyue is the first of the second generation disciples, and his cultivation has reached the seventh level of the Xiantian realm. He is determined to be the clan leader through a martial arts competition. He has almost secured the position of city lord.
Today, Gu Cangyue is in a very happy mood, smiling all the time. The Great Elder is a second-generation descendant of the second elder’s lineage. Naturally, no one will compete with him. Gu Xian, a second-generation descendant of the third elder’s lineage.
, the strongest one is only at the fifth level of the Xiantian Realm. Compared with him at the seventh level of the Xiantian Realm, there is a huge difference.
Gu Cangqiong is Gu Cangyue's biggest competitor for the position of clan leader. However, his cultivation level is still only at the fifth level of the Xiantian realm. Gu Cangyue has no pressure on this. He knows that the further you go in cultivation, the harder it will be.
Although Gu Cangqiong has first-class qualifications, he has missed the best time to practice, and it is difficult to catch up with him in this life.
For most monks, the peak of their cultivation is around 4050 years old. After that, it is impossible to improve any more. After the age of 50, the body begins to age. If you persist in practicing every day, you can only maintain your cultivation without retreating. If you stop practicing,
Your cultivation will go backwards.
After the clan competition, no one left. After Gu Qianshan announced the results of the clan competition, Gu Xian came to the ring and said: "My fellow clansmen, I have been the head of the Gu family for more than twenty years. This year
I am over 70 years old. According to the decree of my ancestors, I will step down from the position of clan leader and let the outstanding second-generation descendants of the clan take over the position of clan leader and lead the ancient clan towards a better future..."
After a pause, Gu Xian continued: "The Gu family is one of the three major cultivation families in Leshui City. This is the foundation laid by generations of ancestors for us. Every patriarch regards the interests of the family as his own.
Fortunately, Gu Xian has lived up to his destiny. He has been in charge of the Gu family for more than 20 years. The strength of the Gu family is increasing day by day. In the future, he will return to the west and have the face to face the ancestors of the Gu family. No matter who becomes the next patriarch, he must do the same as his ancestors and make the Gu family better.
We will continue to develop and find a better future for the Gu family..."
"As monks, we are above mortals, have stronger power than mortals, have more resources than mortals, and have a better life than mortals... However, monks also have to bear greater risks than mortals.
The world of cultivation is a world where the weak eat the strong. It is a cruel world. Without strength, you cannot survive. Therefore, as a clan leader, you must not only have a good character, but also have a cultivation level that exceeds that of others."
"The elders have decided that in this clan leader competition meeting, the elders will recommend second-generation children with good character. Then, the recommended second-generation children will compete to see who is first and who will be the next clan leader..."
