Boom!
At that moment, another tremendous explosion rang out, as the Heavenly Earth Essence Qi went berserk. Such fluctuations caused the commanders of the Heavenly Ranks beside them to be utterly terrified. No matter what they did, they could not escape Gu Chen's control.
Gu Chen's expression remained calm as he stood in place, controlling everything merely with his own Qi. This scene filled the commanders of the Heavenly Ranks with awe.
"Is this the true strength of Leader Gu? It's really too powerful!" They exclaimed in their hearts.
Hum!
Then, as the final light converged, a domain shimmering with spiritual light appeared beside Qin Wu, the deputy leader of Jing Tian Department. After successfully breaking through the realm, Qin Wu's surging Qi gradually stabilized.
At this moment, the burly man's face was filled with excitement. Feeling the powerful force coursing through his body, he immediately gave Gu Chen a fist-and-palm salute and said, "Thank you for your help, great leader!"
Hearing this, Gu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "Qin Command, there's no need for such formalities."
"Now that you're the great leader of Jing Tian Department, certain courtesies must not be neglected," Qin Wu replied with a hearty laugh.
Now, he felt as though he was brimming with strength, having undergone a transformation and become incredibly powerful. It even made him a bit eager to find someone to test his skills on.
Those commanders of the Heavenly Ranks knew Qin Wu well. Seeing the look in his eyes, one by one, they found excuses to leave.
After looking around, everyone had left, leaving only Gu Chen in front of Qin Wu, wearing a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
Qin Wu shivered, shook his head, and soared into the sky, heading to a desolate mountain range to test his newfound powers.

Afterward, Gu Chen also left Jing Tian Department and went to the Qintian Monitor.
Atop the Star Gazing platform of the Bagua Building, Gu Chen saw the white-haired and bearded Tower Supervisor, an elder who had guarded Da Xia for over twenty years. Right now, he was sitting there enjoying his drink, overlooking the misty clouds before him with great contentment.
Gu Chen was seeing the Tower Supervisor like this for the first time. It seemed that these past twenty years hadn't been easy for him.
"Tower Supervisor, I've come to lend you a hand," Gu Chen said softly.
After breaching the three sacred lands, the accumulation of many years had indeed yielded numerous heavenly treasures within them. Not only did they help Qin Wu reach his limit, but they also healed the Tower Supervisor's hidden injuries, making it possible for the old man to advance further.
Of course, none of this would have been possible without Gu Chen's aid. Without him, their breakthroughs would have been very difficult to achieve.
"Come here," responded the Tower Supervisor, nodding slightly, still sitting comfortably in his spot.
Whoosh!
At that instant, Gu Chen, dressed in a black robe that moved without any wind, flicked his finger from afar, and a point of light struck the Tower Supervisor.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, the Tower Supervisor's body trembled, and a beam of light rose from the top of his head. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged around him, and a gust of wind emerged.
Gu Chen stood by, his expression calm, without any visible action. With just a stomp of his foot, all the bizarre phenomena instantly dispersed, and calm returned to the area.
And in just that brief moment, the Tower Supervisor had successfully broken through to the Divine Intent Realm!
It was apparent that the Tower Supervisor's accumulation had long been sufficient. It was only due to the limitations of heaven and earth, and his hidden injuries, that he couldn't break through before.
"What are your plans for what comes next?" the Tower Supervisor asked Gu Chen after breaking through the realm.
"Having reached the grand completion of the Divine Intent Realm, slain Dugu Yun, eradicated demons, and destroyed the spatial passage, I bring everlasting peace to the nine provinces," Gu Chen said calmly.
By shattering the spatial passage, they effectively erased the coordinates that connected the demon world to the nine provinces. As a result, with the disappearance of the demons, the world of the nine provinces would gradually recover. When that happened, the rules of heaven and earth would be restored, and the martial path in this world could flourish and prosper once more.
It wouldn't compare to the upper realms, but it would give the martial practitioners of the nine provinces many more possibilities, allowing the martial path to reach its peak.
The Tower Supervisor nodded upon hearing this and said, "With Wei Cang and Luo Xun guarding the spatial passage, there should be no accidents in the short term. The main issue is still Dugu Yun. I can feel that he's becoming more and more powerful."
Gu Chen's expression remained calm as he slowly said, "I will kill him."
The Tower Supervisor nodded, then offered a faint smile, "After resolving all of this, you should ascend to the upper realms. That is where you truly belong. The nine provinces are too small for you, a true dragon, and we all are but shackles upon you."
"There will be such a day," Gu Chen said with a slight smile, then his figure flashed, and he left the place.
"The hopes of countless people, the lives of millions of beings, this responsibility... it truly is quite heavy," the Tower Supervisor said, shaking his head slightly as he watched Gu Chen's figure vanish.
Meanwhile, Gu Chen had already returned home from Tiandu, for he discovered that the three saints from the Taoxu faction had come to Tiandu to find him.
"Brother Zhen Yuan, Brother Bai, and Master Su Nan," Gu Chen greeted the three with a nod.
"Brother Gu, we are preparing to leave," the trio said with smiles.
"Are you returning to the upper realms?" Gu Chen asked with a nod.
"Brother Gu, are you really not coming with us?" Bai Jingyuan from the Cloud Heaven Palace couldn't help but ask. By now, the upper realms were abuzz with tales of Gu Chen's deeds; his name was known to many. These people believed that with Gu Chen's talent, he should not be buried in the nine provinces.
Even the Saint Master of Cloud Heaven Palace had spoken, asking Bai Jingyuan to bring Gu Chen to the upper realms so he could personally take him as a disciple.
Yet in the end, what made the trio sigh was that Gu Chen still refused.
"I still have unresolved matters in the nine provinces."
"Brother Gu, you..."
Bai Jingyuan wanted to say more but was stopped by Zhen Yuan, who shook his head and then looked at Gu Chen with a smile, "In that case, we wish Brother Gu all the best. We'll be waiting for you in the upper realms."
"We have an agreement," Gu Chen said with a smile, nodding.
"Amitabha, Patron Gu, take care in all matters," Master Su Nan of the Sumi Buddhist sect said, bringing his palms together in prayer.
"We shall reunite in the upper realms!"
"We have an agreement!"
Afterward, Zhen Yuan and his companions left. Three days later, a thunderous boom echoed from the direction of Tianzhou, with brilliant lights and thousands of radiant glows bursting forth. Three pillars of light connecting heaven and earth appeared, their infinite radiance illuminating the whole province, with countless commoners kneeling to worship what they took as a divine sign.
Winds rose and storms thundered. Within the three massive pillars of light, many figures stood. Following Zhen Yuan, Bai Jingyuan, and Su Nan, they ascended, guided by the upper realms, disappearing into the skies.
From that point, the entire nine provinces entered a brief period of calm. Da Xia unified the provinces, rapidly expanded its strength after receiving the assets of the three holy lands, and saw a surge in the emergence of powerful practitioners, reaching an unprecedented peak in a short time.
And it was on this day that the holy maiden of Taoxu Road, Chu Yue Ling, appeared before Gu Chen, personally handing him something.
Or rather, a technique, a world-shaking, earth-shattering technique!
