Chapter 410 -284: Natural Disaster-level Evil Spirit
Gu Family Manor.
Main Hall.
Gu Qingfeng had already emerged from seclusion, and before him stood Gu Yang, who had long resided within the temple halls.
“Son greets Father!”
Gu Yang’s expression was as respectful as ever.
Even though he had now reached the Fifth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm, with the entire Qi Fortune of the Divine Martial Dynasty and the power of the Divine Phoenix Tower at his disposal, enabling him to contend with a true Saint.
But when Gu Qingfeng appeared before him, Gu Yang still felt an unfathomable presence.
“Fifth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm, it seems you have completely refined the inner core of that Saint Realm fierce beast!”
Gu Qingfeng did not need to check the information panel; with a single glance, he could clearly see what realm Gu Yang was in now.
Fifth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm!
In the entire Ancient Desolate World, that was considered a mighty figure.
Moreover, with Gu Yang’s talent, before the arrival of the Great Struggle Prosperity Era, reaching the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm or even the Semi-Saint Realm would not be an issue.
Then.
He continued.
“Today, instead of handling governmental affairs in the palace, how come you have time to return to the manor?”
“There is an anomaly in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range that requires Father’s judgment!”
At the mention of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, Gu Yang’s face grew significantly more solemn.
Upon hearing that.
Gu Qingfeng raised an eyebrow slightly, but his expression did not change significantly.
“Explain in detail.”
In the information panel, he was aware of some developments in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, but the exact cause remained unclear for now.
However.
The fact that the situation in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range made Gu Yang come in person was enough to indicate its unusual nature.
Gu Yang did not hesitate and immediately said: “A month ago, a mysterious black fog appeared in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, devouring an entire army of a thousand men. Many fierce beasts of the Dao Palace Realm disappeared into the fog without a trace.”
“As the black fog expanded, I dispatched a Dao Palace Realm cultivator of the Ninth Layer from the court, carrying the Ten Thousand Soul Banner to investigate the matter.”
“They found the fog filled with corpses and discovered the resurrection of an eerie presence. If the cultivator had not exited in time, he would likely have perished there…”
“Later, I personally brought the Divine Phoenix Tower inside, but unfortunately, I was still unable to uncover the true origin of the black fog, though I did provoke an attack from the eerie presence deep within the fog.
At a critical moment, thankfully, the Divine Phoenix Tower protected me, otherwise, I might not have been able to escape.”
At this point.
Gu Yang suddenly tore open his clothing, exposing his chest, revealing a black handprint. Chilling and sinister energy lingered persistently, as if constantly corroding his body’s vitality.
“The power of an Evil Spirit!”
Seeing the black handprint, Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly.
“Indeed!”
“It is the power of an Evil Spirit!”
Gu Yang’s face showed a bitter smile.
“There must be an Evil Spirit of Saint-level hidden in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, perhaps even stronger. If it were an ordinary Evil Spirit, even if I couldn’t suppress it, I could still retreat unscathed.”
“But—”
“I have never heard of an Evil Spirit existing at this level!”
Toward the end.
Gu Yang’s expression became even more grim.
Before the creation of the Divine Martial Dynasty, the most powerful Evil Spirits in the Nine States were those at the Disaster Level.
Those Evil Spirits.
Their power was comparable to the Divine Transformation Realm.
After the founding of the Divine Martial Dynasty, such weaker Evil Spirits had completely vanished, replaced by even more powerful ones.
These Evil Spirits.
Were also named Disaster-class Evil Spirits by the Divine Martial Dynasty.
Additionally.
To more precisely categorize the power of Disaster-class Evil Spirits, the Divine Martial Dynasty divided them into three grades: Upper, Middle, and Lower.
Among them.
Lower-grade Disaster-class Evil Spirits corresponded to the Dao Palace Realm.
As for Middle-grade Disaster-class Evil Spirits, they corresponded to the Saint Realm.
The Drought demon that appeared in Shenhe County was labeled as a Middle-grade Disaster-class Evil Spirit.
Similarly.
It was also the most powerful Evil Spirit the Divine Martial Dynasty had encountered so far.
Gu Yang had thought that the Drought demon subdued by Gu Qingfeng was the strongest existence among all Evil Spirits.
But the appearance of the Evil Spirit in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range suddenly woke Gu Yang up.
“Based on my judgment, the strength of that Evil Spirit, even within the Middle-grade Disaster-class, is likely at the top tier, though probably not yet in the Upper-grade Disaster-class.
If it were, even with the Divine Phoenix Tower protecting me, I might not have made it out alive!”
The Divine Phoenix Tower, despite its power, could not contend against an Upper-grade Disaster-class Evil Spirit, which corresponds to the Great Saint Realm, especially not when wielded by someone of the Dao Palace Realm. novelbuddy.cσ๓
In the end.
The Dao Palace Realm was not enough to perfectly wield the power of a Great Saint Weapon.
“What I am most worried about now is, if such an Evil Spirit is allowed to grow, will it one day evolve to the point of becoming an Upper-grade Disaster-class?
If it reaches that stage, the problem will become even more severe!”
This was another issue Gu Yang worried about.
The more lives an Evil Spirit slaughtered, the stronger it became.
In the past, any Disaster-level Evil Spirit had the capability to annihilate an entire province, with some powerful ones turning an entire state into a dead zone.
Although the Divine Martial Dynasty was far stronger now than before, facing an Upper-grade Disaster-class Evil Spirit, there was no certainty of resistance.
Only with Gu Qingfeng standing guard did Gu Yang not panic.
Otherwise.
He would have already been preparing to lead the people of the Nine States to relocate elsewhere.
If there was no corresponding power to match it, once that Evil Spirit set its sights on the Nine States, with its terrifying strength, turning the Nine States into a wasteland would be a simple matter.
