8: Chapter 8: Another cup of Enlightenment Tea, enlightenment is within reach today!
Gu Xuan raised his hand and gently lifted him up.
A gentle force supported Gu Chen: "Cultivate well!" Gu Xuan said with a calm smile: "If there is anything you do not understand, you can ask this Old Ancestor; I can guide you."
"Thank you, Old Ancestor!"
Hearing that the Old Ancestor would personally guide his cultivation, he was overjoyed.
What could be more important than being by the Old Ancestor's side?
Gu Chen bowed respectfully and then walked out of the main hall.
Every step felt like stepping on clouds; he felt ethereal.
At this moment, it was more comfortable than anything!
As soon as he stepped out of the hall door,
Clan Leader Gu Tianhua and the Elders, who had been waiting anxiously outside, immediately stepped forward.
The dragon roar just now was no small matter, and it came from the main hall, so something had clearly happened.
They had to ask clearly, especially about the Old Ancestor's strength!
"Chen'er! How was it? What did the Old Ancestor say to you? What was that dragon roar just now?"
"Young Lord, is the Old Ancestor going to pass on supreme techniques to you? How strong is the Old Ancestor?!"
"Does the Old Ancestor have any arrangements for the Gu Family?"
...
Several people swarmed over, each saying something, and Gu Chen couldn't get a word in.
Gu Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart: "That dragon roar just now was the sound of me Awakening the Hidden Dragon Sword Body. Look, my cultivation has even broken through to the sixth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm!"
Everyone looked over in unison.
Only then did they realize with astonishment that Gu Chen's cultivation had truly reached the sixth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm!
It was simply incredible!
Having just broken through to the Profound Origin Realm not long ago, Gu Chen was now the number one person in the Gu Family besides Gu Xuan!
Before everyone could recover from their shock, Gu Chen continued: "The Old Ancestor is unfathomable. It is not for us to easily speculate; it is impossible to judge the Old Ancestor's strength!"
Just as everyone wanted to ask further, Gu Xuan's faint voice suddenly came from inside the main hall: "Come in, all of you."
Subsequently, Clan Leader Gu Tianhua and the Elders stepped into the hall in an orderly manner.
Gu Chen exhaled, finally relieving the pressure from these Elders.
Besides Clan Leader Gu Tianhua being the Clan Chief, there were five Elders in the entire Gu Family, but every Elder was a handful to deal with.
Thanks to the Old Ancestor being here, otherwise, it would have taken a lot of effort to explain.
In front of the main seat of the hall, Gu Xuan waved his hand.
Several cups of clear tea appeared on the table nearby.
The tea soup was clear, and the fragrance of the tea permeated the air.
Gu Xuan smiled slightly: "Elders, you have worked hard. Drink some tea."
"Thank you, Old Ancestor."
The Elders sat down cautiously. Then they reached out to pick up the tea.
"This is... enlightenment tea?! And three leaves!"
Below the platform, Elder Gu Kong was considered knowledgeable.
He exclaimed, his whole body trembling.
Seeing that the tea in his hand was actually enlightenment tea, his hands began to shake!
What? enlightenment tea?
Everyone looked at their cups one after another, and it really was enlightenment tea!
How rare was enlightenment tea? Just by taking a sniff, one felt refreshed, and their Meridians seemed to be massaged.
Not to mention ordinary families, even top Holy Lands might not have even one or two tea leaves.
The Old Ancestor was actually serving them, these Elders, tea so casually!
Each cup had 3 leaves!
This was simply too wasteful!
Elder Gu Kong drank it in one gulp without a word!
After drinking, he didn't forget to eat the leaves, and even licked the cup clean!
He was afraid of wasting a single drop!
After drinking, he felt like a different person.
Elder Gu Kong was extremely excited; he didn't expect that enlightenment tea would really have such miraculous effects on one's own comprehension, just as the legends said.
It was as if he had experienced a profound realization!
"This water! It can actually increase longevity!"
The Elders were already old, coupled with their aged appearance.
After drinking this cup of tea, they instantly regained a lot of vitality, and their white hair turned black!
It was incredibly magical!
Gu Xuan looked at their unrefined behavior and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
This Myriad Longevity Spirit Liquid did indeed have a specific effect when brewed with enlightenment tea.
However, Gu Xuan felt it burned his throat!
He felt it wasn't as good as the tea the Old Ancestor usually drank.
The most exaggerated one was Clan Leader Gu Tianhua, who didn't forget to beg Gu Xuan for another cup after finishing.
Having had no insights in his whole life, his enlightenment would happen today!
Seeing this, Gu Xuan waved his hand and poured him another cup.
Clan Leader Gu Tianhua hurriedly cupped his hands to thank him, then drank it in one gulp.
This shameless method made First Elder Gu Yushan feel inferior.
He actually spoke to the Old Ancestor like this; his skin was so thick!
"Old Ancestor, I want one too."
"Old Ancestor, I want one too."
What shame? Enlightenment was the most important thing!
Gu Xuan was not stingy and poured for everyone.
When they had finished drinking, Gu Xuan calmly said: "The Gu Family has been silent for too long. From today onwards, all clansmen scattered outside shall return."
"I want to see the Gu Family flourish again and shake the region."
Subsequently, Gu Xuan arranged some other matters, and everyone nodded one after another.
Now, they would do whatever Gu Xuan told them to do.
After all, the Tianming Sect had been wiped out by Gu Xuan, and his strength was unfathomable; their own Old Ancestor was truly amazing!
The Old Ancestor's arrangements naturally had his reasons!
After Gu Xuan finished giving instructions, everyone bowed in unison, their voices excited and respectful: "We will strictly follow the Old Ancestor's orders!"
After leaving the main hall, they immediately began to discuss.
"My goodness... our Gu Family is going to rise completely!"
"The Old Ancestor not only casually produced enlightenment tea but also easily crushed a behemoth like the Tianming Sect. With this kind of strength, I'm afraid you couldn't find many like him in the entire Qingyun Province!"
"Now that Gu Chen has awakened the Hidden Dragon Sword Body and jumped to the sixth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, this is the Opportunity that comes from following the Old Ancestor!"
Speaking of Gu Chen, Clan Leader Gu Tianhua's face was beaming. He didn't expect his own son to be so promising.
His heart was naturally full of satisfaction.
It really gave him face.
This was the effect he wanted; he wanted to make the other Elders fiercely envious and jealous!
He wanted them to have that feeling of wanting something they couldn't get!
Those Elders were naturally envious, jealous, and even more hateful.
Why could his son gain the Old Ancestor's favor?
They thought that their own descendants must be able to do it too.
First Elder Gu Yushan slapped his thigh heavily and spoke first: "I will bring my two granddaughters back immediately!"
"I must also hurry to bring my son back!" Elder Gu Kong hurriedly echoed.
"As long as we can be looked at by the Old Ancestor a few more times and receive a few words of guidance, that would be a fortune that allows one to reach the sky in one step!"
"In addition, the Old Ancestor said that the resources left behind by the Tianming Sect should also be counted and transported back as soon as possible to enrich the clan treasury and greatly increase cultivation resources!"
"The Old Ancestor also said that from now on, the Gu Family will shake this land with a brand new posture!"
Several people walked away quickly, but they only had one thought in their minds.
That was to hurry and get their descendants familiar to the Old Ancestor.
Perhaps they would obtain some great Opportunity!
The struggle for the Old Ancestor has always been like this!
At the same time, they also dispatched clansmen to the Tianming Sect to move the resources back.
A Sect at the Sovereign Realm had countless resources within it.
For a small Family like the Gu Family, it was simply a big cake!
This was the empire that the Old Ancestor had worked hard to conquer for them, so naturally, there was no reason to let it go to others!
