166: Chapter 166 The Immortal Path Revives! Why didn't you take us with you when you were sneaking a bite?!

[Detection of the Immortal Road slowly reviving! The Host needs to lay a solid foundation in advance to cope with future changes!]

[Quest issued: Recruit 188 vassal forces and one million Disciples to ensure the Family develops steadily after the Immortal Road opens!]

[Quest completion reward: One Great Emperor Summoning Card (upgradable), one Immortal Realm Construction Card (can manifest facilities and various resource configuration standards comparable to an Immortal Emperor force!)]

Gu Xuan was also somewhat surprised after hearing this!

Especially that the Immortal Road was slowly reviving!

It seems this world truly has a path to Immortal Ascension!

These 188 vassal forces and one million Disciples were a much larger task volume than the last time!

This difficulty was still too simple for him; last time, there were two or three billion Cultivators who came!

However, screening them through the heart-questioning mirror would indeed take some time!

But he really needed to tidy up the home first; if he were to Ascension to the Immortal Realm, the Family in the Lower Realm still needed to develop!

Otherwise, if they were bullied in the Lower Realm, how could they be called the strongest!

Moreover, the rewards for this quest were also very generous!

Although one Great Emperor Summoning Card didn't look like much, after all, the Gu Family now already had 16 Great Emperors at the Perfection realm!

However, he already had 9 cards before; if he added this one, perhaps he could really synthesize an Immortal!

And that Immortal Realm Construction Card was also very good!

After manifesting, it could actually match the resource configuration of an Immortal Emperor!

In this way, once used after choosing a day to Ascension, even ordinary Immortals would find their cultivation base soaring rapidly!

The only thing he worried about was the change in strength after Ascension!

But Gu Xuan was not too worried; he would take one step at a time. Besides, if he couldn't beat them, he would just use the nine-dragon hongmeng agarwood imperial chariot to crush them!

Now was not the time to talk about this; he could only take it one step at a time!

Gu Xuan did not rush to publicize the recruitment of 188 vassal forces and one million Disciples, letting the news of the Canglan Dao Realm being destroyed spread first!

The news of the Canglan Dao Realm being destroyed, like a wind without a source yet omnipresent, quickly swept through all the surrounding worlds!

The first to be unable to sit still were those forces that had previously been related to the Canglan Dao Realm!

They knew the weight of the Canglan Dao Realm better than anyone: a Realm Master at the Nine Heavens of Great Emperor sitting in command, nine Great Emperors suppressing the formation, and vassal forces spread across the Star Domain!

Such an existence was gone overnight!

The first to move were those few super forces that walked closest with the Canglan Dao Realm!

Although they were not in a vassal relationship, being close was the biggest problem!

In this situation, if they didn't clarify things, then they might be in danger!

They all came forward to state their positions!

On the night the news arrived, their teleportation arrays lit up!

Early the next morning, the first batch of envoys had already arrived outside the Gu Family Mountain Gate!

The names on the gift lists were longer than the last, and the leaders of the teams were older than the last!

If they weren't old, it wouldn't show sincerity; those half-dead Old Ancestors who had a say were all summoned!

"The Sect Master of Xuanguang Realm brings the supreme treasure of the realm to seek an audience with the Gu Family Ancestor!"

"The Grand Elder of Tianheng Realm has come in person, bringing a meager gift; please accept it, Gu Family!"

"Daluo Realm, Fengming Realm, and Zixiao Realm have come together to offer three volumes of realm atlases and seven top-grade Spiritual Veins, wishing to form an eternal alliance with the Gu Family!"

Those envoys came more urgently than the next, and the gift lists were thicker than the next!

They were terrified that the Gu Family would think they were accomplices of the Canglan Dao Realm and take them out as well!

That would be the end of them!

Some people had already sent people to deliver letters at top speed while still on the road!

Other forces that were originally waiting and watching saw these actions and could no longer sit still!

Those small and medium-sized forces without backing moved even faster, counting their inventory overnight and digging out their hidden treasures, fearing that if they went too late, they wouldn't even be able to enter the gate!

After the news spread, those Cultivators who usually didn't pay much attention to external conflicts also began their own discussions!

"I just said that the Gu Family would definitely win! I saw it back when those three worlds were destroyed; the Gu Family is definitely not an ordinary force!"

"Not an ordinary force? Have you ever seen an ordinary force that could destroy a super world with nine Great Emperors sitting in command within half a month?"

"Damn! I used to think the Gu Family was just a small Family; I didn't expect them to be so fierce! The Canglan Dao Realm was gone just like that!"

"Canglan Dao Realm? Just a dog on the side of the road! So what if the Realm Master is at the Nine Heavens of Great Emperor? When they meet a real big shot, don't they still have to lie down!"

"Exactly, exactly! If it's a Dragon, it must coil up for the Gu Family! If it's a Tiger, it must crouch for the Gu Family!"

"What is the background of this Gu Family Ancestor? Has anyone seen him? How come I heard that he didn't even show his face and leveled the Canglan Dao Realm just by relying on his subordinates?"

"Do you think those forces that used to be close to the Canglan Dao Realm are now writing letters of allegiance overnight?"

"More than just writing letters of allegiance! I heard that the Realm Master of Xuanguang Realm is personally leading the team on the road, not even sleeping!"

"Then can a Loose Cultivator like me go to the Gu Family to try my luck? I heard before that the Gu Family is still recruiting!"

The discussions spread like ripples from one marketplace to another, and from one Small World to another!

Many people's topics shifted from "How did the Canglan Dao Realm disappear?" to "Is the Gu Family still recruiting?"

The light of the teleportation arrays shone more frequently than usual, and the flow of people on the path to the Desolate Ancient Continent was endless!

And they all blocked the entrance outside the Gu Family Mountain Gate, but the Gu Family had not made any statement yet!

They could only wait silently and dared not leave!

If you dared to leave, you wouldn't know if your home would become a hornet's nest in the next second!

Especially those who were previously related to the Canglan Dao Realm!

They didn't dare to leave for even a moment!

Naturally, they didn't dare to gamble!

Silently waiting for the Gu Family's response!

Inside the Gu Family Mountain Gate, the atmosphere was completely different!

The supplies moved back from the Canglan Dao Realm piled up the square; some hadn't been classified yet, with Spiritual Ores, Medicinal Pills, Magical Artifacts, and spiritual materials mixed together, piled higher than a mountain!

The Disciples were classifying and counting them; having moved them for several days, they didn't feel tired at all, but instead felt more energetic the more they moved!

They were too energetic!

And the one with the biggest harvest was naturally Clan Leader Gu Tianhua!

He stood in front of a pile of supplies that had just been transported back, picked up a glowing bracelet from inside, looked at it against the light, and said, "This bracelet is of good quality; I'll save it for my daughter-in-law to wear!"

As he spoke, he picked up a smaller jade bracelet next to it, weighed it in his hand, and said, "I'll keep this one too; for the children to wear in the future!"

He put the bracelets away, lowered his head to rummage through more, pulled a scroll out of a pile of spiritual materials, opened it to take a look, and then closed it, saying, "This Cultivation Technique is also decent; I'll keep it for my grandchildren to learn in the future!"

The other few Elders watching from the side were speechless!

This guy was snacking on the side!

If he weren't the Clan Chief, they would have served him the strictest Family rules directly!

And he actually didn't call them when snacking on the side!

Eating alone, keeping it all to himself!

"Clan Chief! How could you do this!"

"How did I do what? Am I not just finding some good things for my grandchildren? I already told the Gu Family Ancestor!"

"I mean, why didn't you bring us along!!"
