Celestial Emperor of Devouring

Chapter 992 - 982: Breaking Through to Immortal Emperor

"He... he’s actually cultivating!"Xu Wu’s face turned deathly pale, full of terror and disbelief, his body trembling violently beyond his control.

He had never imagined that Gu Chenfeng could come out unscathed from the self-detonation of so many Immortal Venerables, and even seize the chance to raise his Cultivation.

This was simply a monster!

"How is this possible... How could he be completely unhurt? That’s the power of ninety-five Immortal Venerables self-detonating." Xu Wu muttered in horror, eyes filled with despair.

Even seeing it with his own eyes, Xu Wu still didn’t dare believe it, much less accept it.

At this moment.

Xu Wu knew he was completely defeated.

Xu Wu had cast the Soul Control Spell and had almost drained his Immortal Power; he no longer had the strength to fight, let alone kill Gu Chenfeng.

Not to mention that he was already heavily injured now, completely no match for Gu Chenfeng.

"Gu Chenfeng’s Divine Power is no longer something I can shake. Unless a Demigod Realm expert makes a move, I must immediately head to the Divine Realm!" Xu Wu said inwardly, growing more fearful the more he thought.

Xu Wu didn’t hesitate in the slightest; he turned around and tried to flee.

While Gu Chenfeng was still cultivating, Xu Wu had to escape as fast as possible. Once Gu Chenfeng woke from Cultivation, he wouldn’t be able to run even if he wanted to.

Seeing Xu Wu trying to escape, Kuang Yunshan hurriedly shouted in warning, "Young Master Feng! Xu Wu is running!"

However.

Gu Chenfeng had no intention of stopping Xu Wu.

At this moment Gu Chenfeng’s body was still slightly swollen; clearly, the power he had devoured hadn’t yet fully transformed into Pure Power.

Gu Chenfeng still sat cross-legged in the void, madly absorbing the Pure Power to raise his Cultivation.

Right now the most important thing was to raise his own Cultivation; the stronger his Cultivation, the stronger his Ancient Divine Power would naturally become.

As for Xu Wu, he was no longer worth fearing.

Gu Chenfeng was in no hurry to chase and kill him.

Besides, Xu Wu still had Gu Chenfeng’s Soul Power inside him. No matter where Xu Wu fled, Gu Chenfeng could sense his approximate location.

Unless Xu Wu hid inside a forbidden zone.

Meanwhile.

Xu Wu fled for his life while cursing viciously, "Gu Chenfeng, just you wait for me. If I don’t kill you, I swear I’m no man!"

As he fled, Xu Wu kept sensing Gu Chenfeng’s aura; only after confirming that Gu Chenfeng wasn’t pursuing did he completely relax.

Xu Wu secretly regretted giving Gu Chenfeng a chance to grow stronger. If he had struck earlier, Gu Chenfeng’s Divine Power wouldn’t have become so terrifying.

Unfortunately, it was far too late for regret.

"Gu Chenfeng! Just you wait! I will never give you any more chances!" The more Xu Wu thought about it, the angrier he got, wishing he could flay Gu Chenfeng alive and grind his bones to dust.

Sadly, he didn’t have that ability.

He could only flee to the Divine Realm as soon as possible, find a safe place to recover from his injuries, and ask for help along the way.

Three hours later.

Gu Chenfeng was still sitting cross-legged in the void cultivating, but his body had already returned to normal.

After three hours of frantic absorption, Gu Chenfeng’s Cultivation had smoothly reached the Peak Level of Late Stage Immortal Monarch, and he was only Half-step away from breaking through to Immortal Emperor.

Not far away, Guardian Kuang Yunshan kept his eyes on Gu Chenfeng, thinking to himself, "Young Master Feng’s cultivation speed is too terrifying. In just three hours, his Cultivation is about to break through."

When the last wisp of Pure Power in Gu Chenfeng’s body was absorbed.

In the midst of Cultivation, Gu Chenfeng’s body suddenly erupted with an incomparably terrifying force, and his overbearing aura swept out like a storm.

This overbearing aura kept spreading, making the surrounding space tremble in response.

Kuang Yunshan’s eyes widened as he exclaimed, "His aura is skyrocketing! What a dominant aura! Young Master Feng is about to break through!"

Exactly!

In just three short hours, Gu Chenfeng had already met the conditions to break through to Immortal Emperor.

"I’m about to break through! Those Immortal Venerables’ self-detonations really did me a huge favor." Gu Chenfeng’s heart was filled with joy.

Gu Chenfeng could clearly feel his Cultivation continually rising, his power constantly growing, and he had already fulfilled the conditions for a breakthrough.

As time passed, Gu Chenfeng’s Cultivation gradually came to its finale.

"Boom!"

"Buzz buzz!"

An overbearing and fierce Immortal Power suddenly burst out from within Gu Chenfeng, dazzling golden light shooting into the sky. The terrifying power swept madly outwards, and the space within several thousand zhang shook and roiled violently.

"I did it! Early Stage Immortal Emperor!" Gu Chenfeng’s eyes snapped open, a sharp gleam flashing within.

"Young Master Feng has broken through!" Kuang Yunshan was wild with joy.

Gu Chenfeng slowly stood up, feeling the incomparably ferocious Immortal Power and Ancient Divine Power within his body.

Gu Chenfeng said excitedly, "My Cultivation has broken through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, and my Ancient Divine Power has grown more than tenfold. Under the suppression of this Divine Power, even a Peak Late Stage of Demigod holds no fear for me."

Strictly speaking, as Gu Chenfeng’s Cultivation rose, the Ancient Divine Power he could bring forth became more and more terrifying.

The Ancient Divine Power was the strongest power of the Divine Realm, and Gu Chenfeng, now merely at Immortal Emperor Realm, could only unleash a very limited portion of that Divine Power.

With Gu Chenfeng’s current strength, even without using Ancient Divine Power, he could definitely contend with Late Stage Immortal Emperor experts and even stand in an undefeated position.

Kuang Yunshan flashed over, staring at Gu Chenfeng in excitement, both envious and respectful as he said, "Young Master Feng, you’re incredible. So many Immortal Venerables self-detonated, and not only were you completely unharmed, you even smoothly broke through to Immortal Emperor Realm."

"I have Xu Wu to thank for that." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly. "But the combined self-detonation of so many Immortal Venerable experts is indeed terrifying. Even Demigod experts would find it hard to withstand."

"If not for my Ancient Divine Power and Devouring Power, facing so many Immortal Venerables self-detonating, even I would’ve had a hard time resisting. The self-detonation of Immortal Venerable experts is a force that can’t be underestimated."

"Young Master Feng is right." Kuang Yunshan nodded and said with an excited smile, "Young Master Feng’s Devouring Power is too overbearing. If others found out that you devoured the power of their self-detonation, they’d be scared to death on the spot."

Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly. "Aren’t you standing here just fine?"

"That’s because I know Young Master Feng can devour power to raise your Cultivation." Kuang Yunshan gave an awkward laugh, then asked respectfully, "Right, Young Master Feng, Xu Wu has already run. What should we do now?"

"Xu Wu can’t escape. I know where he is; he can forget about slipping from my grasp." Gu Chenfeng sneered slightly. "If it weren’t for the sake of breaking through to Immortal Emperor Realm, do you think he’d have had the chance to run?"

Though Xu Wu had fled, what he didn’t know was that Gu Chenfeng could find him at any time.

When that time came, Gu Chenfeng would no longer give him any chance.

Looking toward the direction of the Divine Realm, Gu Chenfeng sneered, "The Divine Realm, huh? Does Xu Wu really think that by relying on some major power in the Divine Realm, they can keep him alive?"

"The Divine Realm?" Kuang Yunshan was stunned at first, then overjoyed. "Young Master Feng, Xu Wu running to the Divine Realm is basically walking into a trap."

"No matter how strong the major powers of the Divine Realm are, in front of the Star Ancient Sect they don’t even dare fart! This time he’s dead for sure! Hahaha!"

Gu Chenfeng sneered. "Let’s go. We’re heading to the Divine Realm."
