Demon Cultivator: Heaven and earth are the cauldron, and all living beings are the medicine

Cangyuan Kingdom, within the Gu Family.

At this moment, a man dressed in a vermilion robe, with a dignified expression and an incredibly terrifying aura, appeared in the Gu Family's sky.

Gu Yuanteng sensed the man's arrival and suddenly appeared in mid-air, respectfully bowing and cupping his hands towards the man.

"Gu Yuanteng greets Lord Suzaku. The Four Prefecture Alliance's presence graces our humble abode, bringing honor to the Gu Family! May I ask, Lord Suzaku, what brings you here?"

Suzaku's gaze was cold, and his tone indifferent.

"Gu Yuanteng, do you wish to comprehend Intent? To become a Nascent Divinity cultivator?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Yuanteng's mind was struck by a thunderbolt, stirring up monstrous waves. His pupils suddenly contracted to the size of needles, and the calm words echoed in his ears, leaving him in disbelief!

After a long while, Gu Yuanteng finally calmed his mind and eagerly asked.

"I do, of course, I do! Could it be that Lord Suzaku has a way for this old man to comprehend Intent?"

"The Rain Dao Field is about to open, and the Alliance has carefully considered you to be the most suitable candidate! Are you willing to abandon the power of Crimson Flames and switch to cultivating water-attribute Qi?"

Suzaku's words were calm, but each word that fell into Gu Yuanteng's ears was as shocking as thunder!

However, Gu Yuanteng had lived for over a hundred years and was cautious in his actions. He was not overjoyed by the great opportunity before him, like Fan Jin passing the imperial exam, but instead carefully considered every layer of the relationship!

"The Four Prefecture Alliance is offering such a great opportunity! They must have their purpose! If I accept this opportunity, although I am very likely to enter the ranks of Nascent Divinity cultivators, at the same time, the Gu Family will no longer be independent and will become an affiliated force of the Four Prefecture Alliance!"

Gu Yuanteng thought to himself, his heart beginning to struggle frantically.

"Gu Yuanteng, this is a rare opportunity, are you still hesitating? Comprehend the Rain Intent, become a Nascent Divinity cultivator! From then on, your Gu Family will be the sky of the entire Moyang City, and even the entire Cangyuan Kingdom. The Cangyuan Kingdom's royal family will only be a puppet of the Gu Family!"

Suzaku slowly spoke, constantly enticing Gu Yuanteng.

Gu Yuanteng pondered for a moment. From an overall perspective, the benefits of this were still greater than the disadvantages!

Therefore, he gritted his teeth, his eyes firm, and decisively spoke.

"Alright! My Gu Family is willing to become an affiliated force of the Four Prefecture Alliance! I implore Lord Suzaku to take me to the Rain Dao Field and grant me this opportunity!"

"Very good! You are a smart man! Now, pack up, explain the various matters, and then come with me to the Rain Dao Field!"

Suzaku nodded with satisfaction, his figure instantly breaking through the air and teleporting tens of kilometers forward, silently waiting in the distance.

Gu Yuanteng then summoned the Gu Family Patriarch, Gu Yan, and solemnly instructed him.

"Gu Yan, I need to go out and train for a while. The time may be short or long, perhaps a few years, or perhaps decades. During my absence, you must lead the Gu Family to develop and grow stronger, and you must not become decadent!"

"Yes! Ancestor, I will certainly live up to your trust!" Gu Yan cupped his hands towards Gu Yuanteng.

Gu Yuanteng heard this, slowly turned around, his figure suddenly disappearing from the spot, leaving only a magnificent sentence echoing between heaven and earth.

"Remember! Protect the Gu Family! When I return, the Gu Family will be the only power in the entire Cangyuan Kingdom!"

A group of Gu Family disciples looked up, all with expressions of shock, and discussed among themselves.

"Who is that adult in the scarlet robe? His aura is so terrifying! I even feel that he is stronger than the ancestor!"

"I heard he is called Suzaku! He is the master of one of the four prefectures of our Southern Border Alliance! His cultivation is as high as Nascent Divinity, isn't he more powerful than our ancestor?!"

"The Four Prefecture Alliance? What is that?"

"The Four Prefecture Alliance is a great power in our Southern Border! It does not belong to any cultivation country! It is an independent organization! I heard that the four adults of the four prefectures are all Nascent Divinity early-stage cultivators, and their combat power is extremely terrifying!"

"Not only that! I heard that in the Four Prefecture Alliance, there is a Martial King above the four adults! His cultivation is as high as the Nascent Divinity middle stage, and he is the true master of the entire Four Prefecture Alliance!"

"Wow! This is an eye-opener, so if the ancestor can become a Nascent Divinity cultivator this time, our Cangyuan Kingdom will become a level-two cultivation country!"

"Yes, yes! Just thinking about it is a little exciting!"

In the mortal realm, each country has a clear hierarchy based on its strength!

The Cangyuan Kingdom does not currently have a Nascent Divinity cultivator, but it has Gu Yuanteng and Tao Zhennan, two Nascent Soul peak cultivators, so it belongs to a level-three cultivation country!

Above the level-three cultivation country, there are also level-two cultivation countries! And level-one cultivation countries!

To reach the standard of a level-two cultivation country, this cultivation country needs to have a Nascent Divinity cultivator!

To reach the standard of a level-one cultivation country, it needs to have at least three Nascent Divinity cultivators, and at least one Nascent Divinity cultivator's cultivation must reach the Nascent Divinity middle stage or above!

Only in this way can it be rated as a level-one cultivation country!

At this moment, outside the Demon Abyss Sea, within the towering vortex, in the underwater world.

Ning Lu was taking a rare rest today, staying in his room, sitting quietly on a chair, lost in thought.

Qin Xiyue sat next to Ning Lu, looking straight at him with a blooming smile!

In the past few years of getting along, Qin Xiyue, the Holy Maiden of the Merman race, gradually developed feelings for Ning Lu and boldly expressed her love!

"Young Master Feng, do you think I am good-looking?" Qin Xiyue's beautiful face approached Ning Lu's ear, and she softly spoke.

Ning Lu stood up from the chair and said indifferently.

"You are good-looking."

"Then marry me! How about it?" Qin Xiyue also stood up from the chair, relentlessly pursuing him.

"Miss Xiyue, don't joke! You are the Holy Maiden of the Merman race, and I am a wanted criminal! There is no possibility for us!"

Ning Lu repeatedly sneered, refusing without hesitation.

"But, the current Merman race is no longer as strong as it was ten thousand years ago! Moreover, to break the Ten Thousand Souls Barrier, even if you sit withered in front of the barrier day and night, you haven't absorbed many souls in so many years!

Anyway, our Merman race is already used to living in this underwater world, why don't you just stop breaking the Ten Thousand Souls Barrier! Marry me here! You don't have to worry about being chased and killed outside day and night!"

Qin Xiyue spoke affectionately and earnestly.

"No! You don't understand! I still have unfinished goals and incredibly lofty ideals! No matter how much time it takes, no matter how strong the Ten Thousand Souls Barrier is! One day, I will completely break it! One day, I will see the light of day again from this underwater world!"

Ning Lu's tone was firm, and he denied the girl's idea!

"But, doing this will make you very tired! And once you go out, your life may be in danger at any time!"

Qin Xiyue's face was tearful and worried.

Ning Lu heard this and just smiled faintly. He only heard him say loudly.

"I clearly know that the paths between people are not replicable! I am walking on my own path in life! Even if the wind and rain on the road are great! So great that I struggle to walk! Even if there are thorns everywhere! Stabbing me with scars all over!

I still smile foolishly, I taste the flavor of it!

I believe that the lonely boat will one day see the mountains on both sides gather! Insects and birds sing together!"

After saying a word, he pushed open the door of the room and sped towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Souls Barrier again!

"Alas! You are always like this!" Qin Xiyue looked at Ning Lu's back, her love undiminished, and muttered to herself.
