BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM-Chapter 555 Cai Lin!

Chapter 555 Cai Lin!

“Elders, just now my master gave me a medicinal pill. After I took it, my cultivation immediately broke through quite a bit!” Zi Yan casually explained.

She then continued, “My master intends to enter secluded cultivation in this ancient hall for a period of time. So, before he emerges from seclusion, I hope no one disturbs his venerable self!”

Hearing Zi Yan’s words, all the East Dragon Island elders present spoke in unison: “We shall respectfully obey the Dragon Emperor’s command!”

For an expert like Gu He to be able to stay temporarily on East Dragon Island was something these East Dragon Island elders could only dream of. Unexpectedly, it had now come true, so they naturally had to serve him respectfully.

As for Zi Yan, the cultivation speed she displayed had already allowed many members of the Ancient Dragon Tribe to see hope.

According to her current cultivation level, she could already match some of the weaker elders. Following this trend, perhaps in a few more years, Zi Yan would be able to reach the strength of those veteran elders.

After Zi Yan issued the order, the great hall where Gu He had set up a seal was designated as a forbidden area of East Dragon Island, and no one was allowed to enter.

Zi Yan understood that to truly unify the Ancient Dragon Tribe, her cultivation as the Dragon Emperor possessing the royal bloodline was the most crucial factor.

When her cultivation reached the Dou Saint realm, countless members of the three islands' tribes would likely come to pledge allegiance. Right now, she was still too weak.

…

In Nine-Colored Valley, Gu He had just returned and recounted some of the events that had occurred on East Dragon Island to Yun Yun.

Hearing that Gu He had actually repelled three three-star Dou Saint experts with the cultivation of a one-star Dou Saint, the expression on Yun Yun’s face changed dramatically.

She had been constantly worried whether Gu He would be injured. It wasn't until the end, when she heard that Gu He was completely unharmed, that she slowly let out a sigh of relief.

“Husband, these three Dragon Kings of the Ancient Void Dragon tribe, will they still have other trump cards?” Yun Yun asked with some concern.

Hearing Yun Yun’s words, Gu He also began to ponder seriously.

In another timeline, it seemed the North Dragon King ultimately used some kind of Dragon Transformation Demonic Formation. He devoured the flesh and blood of many experts from the three dragon islands, and directly stepped into the terrifying level of a six-star Dou Saint.

However, in that timeline, it was because the South Dragon King and West Dragon King had their limbs severed by Zi Yan using the Dragon Slaying Sword, and their strength was greatly damaged.

This allowed the less severely injured North Dragon King to find an opportunity to devour the flesh and blood of these West and South Dragon Kings in one fell swoop.

Obviously, the current North Dragon King did not meet that condition. During the self-detonation of Gu He’s projection just now, the North Dragon King’s injuries were the most severe among the three Dragon Kings.

However, for a deranged person like the North Dragon King, although he no longer had the strength to act against the other two Dragon Islands, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t directly target the North Dragon Island, the members of his own governed Dragon Island.

Moreover, Gu He also needed to be wary of whether, after suffering such a great loss this time, these three Dragon Kings would seek external help. He considered if they might call upon the Heavenly Demon Phoenix tribe or the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python tribe for assistance.

The strength of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix tribe and the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python tribe could not be underestimated. Especially the current Heavenly Demon Phoenix tribe; its patriarch, Huang Tian, might have already reached the cultivation level of a five-star Dou Saint. This level of strength was much stronger than Hun Miesheng, the Hall Master of the Central Plains' hegemon, the Hall of Souls.

If the three Dragon Kings managed to persuade Huang Tian to act, Gu He had no confidence in being able to deal with him.

Thinking of this, Gu He couldn’t help but frown.

Seeing Gu He’s expression, Yun Yun became even more worried, because this was the first time in all these years she had seen Gu He frown like this.

“Husband, is it that those three Dragon Kings still have some trump cards?” Yun Yun asked further.

“Mm, if those three Dragon Kings really do as I just thought, they could very likely bring out combat power equivalent to a five-star Dou Saint!” Gu He nodded and said.

“A five-star Dou Saint!”

Hearing Gu He’s words, Yun Yun was also startled. She knew Gu He’s strength clearly. At most, he could only contend with an ordinary four-star Dou Saint.

Against a slightly stronger four-star Dou Saint, he could at best ensure he wouldn’t suffer a humiliating defeat and would have a chance to escape. However, against an expert at the five-star Dou Saint stage, Gu He had no confidence at all.

“Yun’er, don’t worry. Although I can’t defeat that five-star Dou Saint right now, give me some more time, and I will definitely be able to do it!” Gu He said softly, holding Yun Yun’s hand.

“Husband, go into seclusion with peace of mind. I will handle things with Yu Chen here!” Yun Yun said considerately.

“Mm!”

“Yun’er, your husband’s seclusion this time won’t be too long!” Gu He promised, kissing Yun Yun’s fair cheek.

After this, Gu He directly used the Void Great Teleportation Technique and teleported to a desolate mountain more than twenty thousand li away.

Arriving at this desolate mountain, Gu He immediately set up a simple seal and then sat down cross-legged.

“System, advance those forty-four years of cultivation!”

As Gu He’s low shout fell in his mind, a purple beam of light immediately shot from the System space into Gu He’s body, transforming into a vast surge of energy.

Feeling this immense energy appear within his body, Gu He quickly circulated his cultivation technique, rapidly refining these energies.

Soon, a full nine days had passed since Gu He began this seclusion. During these nine days, Gu He had completely absorbed and refined all forty-four years of cultivation returned from Zi Yan.

However, even after refining these forty-four years of cultivation, Gu He still hadn’t broken through to a two-star Dou Saint.

“Still a little bit short. If I had another ten-plus years of cultivation, I should be able to break through!” Gu He opened his eyes and murmured softly.

At this moment, Gu He couldn’t help but think of Cai Lin. Back then, the first time he transferred cultivation to Cai Lin, it had allowed her to break through to the peak strength of a nine-star Dou Ancestor.

Now, a year and a half had already passed. Perhaps Cai Lin was already able to receive more energy and break through to the Dou Zun realm in one go.

Thinking of this, Gu He immediately sensed the location of the Void Jade Talisman. He discovered that there was no Void Jade Talisman in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, but the one in the desert indicated its presence.

Furthermore, just as Gu He was sensing the Void Jade Talisman’s location, he found that the position of the talisman appearing in the desert was changing rapidly. From the looks of it, it was moving closer to the Medusa Temple.

Gu He already knew about the Snake-People Tribe migrating to the Demonic Beast Mountain Range. Seeing the Void Jade Talisman’s location changing so quickly now, Gu He couldn’t help but guess that perhaps Cai Lin was traveling back and forth to the temple to retrieve something.
