175: Chapter 175 Meeting Gu Xuan, Customizing an Ultimate Imperial Weapon?
However, where there is joy, there is sorrow!
Some of those who failed to be selected watched helplessly as others entered the Gu Family with great joy to pick up brooms; they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh in frustration!
"Sigh! I prepared for so long, only to fail at the very first level!"
"I practiced my Mind-Cultivation Technique all day! I prepared for a month and clearly did it very well, so why couldn't I pass?"
"I refuse to accept this! I want to try again!"
Everyone sighed, never expecting that they, as beings in the Saint Realm, couldn't even manage to become a chore Disciple.
If this got out, they would surely be laughed at until their teeth fell out!
On the other hand, those who passed were all overjoyed. They were queuing up, waiting to receive their identification badges and the Gu Family Handbook, their faces beaming with smiles!
When they truly stepped inside the Gu Family Mountain Gate and saw the scene, they still couldn't help but be shocked!
Looking from the outside, the spiritual mist, the waterfalls of spiritual liquid, and the enlightenment tea trees were already shocking enough, but only after truly walking inside did they realize!
The shock from the outside was merely an appetizer!
It turned out their perspective was just too limited!
Inside the Mountain Gate were ginseng fruit trees, million-year-old Spirit Medicine, and even the Undying Divine Medicine!
"You... is that Undying Divine Medicine actually planted on the roadside of the Gu Family?!"
"I just took one whiff and felt my Lifespan increase by more than a decade!"
Countless Great Emperors would break their heads trying to obtain just one stalk, yet the Gu Family just planted them like flowers on the side!
This allowed the experts from these factions to intuitively feel the gap between themselves and the Gu Family.
When they were still fighting tooth and nail over precious items, the Gu Family might only glance at them once!
After that one glance, they would say, "We have plenty of those by the roadside!"
How could this not make people feel astonished!
"I originally thought the enlightenment tea and ginseng fruit trees outside were absurd enough, but I didn't expect there to be even more absurd things inside!"
Just as they were too shocked to say anything, someone suddenly seemed to see something and shouted!
"Look over there, what is that?!"
Everyone's gaze turned in unison!
Everyone turned towards the plaza at the same time!
They saw that on the Gu Family plaza, the transported supplies were piled higher than mountains. Spiritual ores, bottles of Medicinal Pills, boxes of Magical Artifacts, and Materials were like a mountain range slowly growing!
Of course, these supplies hadn't just been piled into a single mountain!
Because a mountain was no longer high enough; the height of that batch of Materials had already reached above the clouds!
After a month of transportation, the supplies from those worlds had almost all been brought back!
This made the Disciples so tired from counting the supplies that their hands were cramping!
Two percent of these supplies would be enough to let them soar to the sky!
The newly arrived Disciples obviously didn't know the specific situation inside; if they knew, their hearts would surely ache!
If they had come earlier, they would have at least been able to get their fill!
"Those things are just placed on the plaza? Without any Formation? Without any Seal? Just left out in the open like that?"
"The fortune I've saved up my entire life isn't even a fraction of that pile! I've truly lived in vain!"
"Look at that box on the very top, the spiritual light is almost bursting out! That's at least Imperial Rank material or higher!"
"In our faction's warehouse, we have a total of only a few Imperial Rank Materials, locked behind three layers of Formations with people guarding them! Here, they're piled up like firewood!!"
"I finally understand now why even factions with Great Emperors are fighting to become vassals. With this many resources, who wouldn't come?!"
The newcomers were still standing on the plaza, looking around. Every time they looked at a new place, they were shocked again. They needed some time to digest everything before them!
Among the newly joined vassal factions, there was an old man with white hair standing at the front of the crowd.
He was the Old Ancestor of a certain super faction, having lived for hundreds of thousands of years, with a cultivation level reaching the Third Heaven of the Great Emperor realm. Usually, he was an existence whose word was law within his own faction!
At this moment, standing on the Gu Family plaza, he was startled by every single thing he saw!
The kind where he was scaring himself!
After all, he had never seen many of the things here, relying entirely on his imagination!
He just felt that his hundreds of thousands of years had been lived in vain!
He previously thought that the Third Heaven of the Great Emperor realm was already standing at a very high peak!
Now, standing on this plaza, he realized he hadn't even touched the threshold of the Gu Family!
The Gu Family was truly terrifying to this extent!
His expression was identical to the one Xiao Yao had at the time!
After seeing the entire Gu Family, everyone's heart rate shot directly to 180!
They had to take a few deep breaths to catch their breath!
Especially those Great Emperors; one more glance would shake their meager self-esteem.
However, when they learned that Great Emperors could meet the Gu Family Ancestor, that meager self-esteem was covered up by another emotion!
"I heard that we, the Great Emperors of the vassal factions, can meet the Gu Family Ancestor later?"
"The news is correct! It's one of the perks of being a vassal faction. I envy you for being able to see the Gu Family Ancestor!"
"If we can meet that Old Ancestor in person, even if it's just to say a few words, it might bring us some guidance and Opportunities!!"
"I've been stuck at the First Heaven of the Great Emperor realm for nearly thirty thousand years. If I can obtain some Opportunity in the Gu Family, I might be able to take another step forward!"
The expressions of those Great Emperors all carried a similar expectation. If they could snag an official position in the Gu Family or receive a word or two of guidance, they might just soar to the sky!
Of course, they didn't dare to think about that; after all, just being in this Gu Family already made them feel it was too worth it!
They wanted to trample those who had looked down on them before firmly under their feet!
Let them know what a big shot is, and what the "true fragrance" law is!
Those experts who had lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years were now like a group of newly entered Disciples, whispering and exchanging their news and outlooks on the future!
On this land of the Gu Family, a brand-new possibility was slowly unfolding before them!
Everyone just quietly adjusted their clothes, preparing for the formal occasion later!
Subsequently, they were led to the back mountain!
The back mountain was much quieter than the front mountain.
Gu Xuan sat by the lake, a cup of tea by his side. Seeing those people walk over, his gaze didn't linger much.
Those Great Emperor Old Ancestors stood a few steps away, spontaneously stopped, and then knelt on one knee!
"Greetings, Old Ancestor!"
They waited one after another for Gu Xuan's orders or arrangements!
Gu Xuan didn't bother with formalities; his tone was very casual. "Since you have joined the Gu Family, you are now people of the Gu Family. The Enforcer Hall is still short on people, so you can just fill the vacancies."
"Also, I will give each of you an ultimate emperor weapon. The ultimate emperor weapon will be matched to you. At the same time, Cultivation resources will be distributed quarterly. If you encounter a Bottleneck in your Cultivation, you can also consult these people in the back mountain at any time."
What?!
They were actually giving them ultimate emperor weapons!
And more?
What does it mean that the ultimate emperor weapon will be matched to you?!
Although they also had ultimate emperor weapons, they hadn't changed them for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years; they were practically ancient relics!
Moreover, some ultimate emperor weapons were not handy for them, but without better ones, they had to use the unhandy ones!
For example, if someone used a spear, and suddenly obtained a sword-type ultimate emperor weapon, it would certainly not be handy for him!
After all, they had poured a lot of effort into using a spear; switching to learn the sword, such a sudden change was hard to adapt to!
Now telling them that the ultimate emperor weapon would be matched to them made them feel very surprised!
Can it really be played like this?
