Chapter 75: Nine-Star Dou Emperor Peak!

    Chapter 75: Nine-Star Dou Emperor Peak!

    On the mist-covered mountain peak, at the edge of a cliff, the space undulated incessantly. Threads of somewhat mottled natural energy surged rapidly, then swept overwhelmingly into the body of the middle-aged man seated at the edge of the mountain.

    Facing this endless infusion, his body was like a bottomless pit, allowing the energy to pour in without any sign of overflowing.

    Since taking the Emperor Supreme Pill, Gu He had maintained this state for nearly three days.

    During these three days, his sturdy figure remained motionless like a rock. On the mountain peak, only the energy vortex continuously rotating above his head emitted a low humming sound.

    Inside Gu He''s body, the immense medicinal power of the Emperor Supreme Pill, after being refined by his Divine Fire Technique, transformed into surging Dou Qi, flowing through his meridians like tidal waves.

    Moreover, there was a continuous influx of natural energy, which was ultimately refined by his Divine Fire Technique into pure Dou Qi, integrating into this massive force.

    Although the quantity of this natural energy was large, after multiple refinements, the remaining pure Dou Qi available for Gu He to absorb was not substantial.

    However, it was better than nothing. Accumulating over time, it reached a terrifying level.

    For most cultivators, their internal Dou Qi also accumulated in this way. Relying on medicinal pills to enhance strength was just a shortcut and couldn''t be abused, as it might lead to fluctuations in the internal Dou Qi.

    However, Gu He had no such concerns.

    The Divine Fire Technique recorded in the Divine Fire Scripture could refine the body while also tempering the internal Dou Qi.

    After the tempering by his Divine Fire Technique, even the originally unstable Dou Qi became extremely pure.

    This round of cultivation by Gu He lasted quite a long time. The medicinal power of the Emperor Supreme Pill had been completely refined a day ago, but he didn''t stop immediately; instead, he chose to continue practicing.

    Because he faintly felt that relying solely on the medicinal power of the Emperor Supreme Pill might not bring him much improvement in cultivation.

    His actions always pursued perfection. This was an opportunity, and he naturally wanted to seize it to maximize his strength.

    "Break for me!"

    Double fists clenched, the giant stone beneath Gu He''s feet exploded with a loud roar. Shattered stones flew in all directions, accompanied by a stern shout from Gu He.

    "Crack!"

    As if an invisible membrane in the dark had ruptured, the momentum that had ceased to rise in Gu He surged again, breaking through the late stage of the nine-star level and finally stopping at the peak of the nine stars!

    The momentum abruptly halted upon reaching the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Emperor. Gu He, as if in exhaustion, slumped down, palms on the ground, his face turning red as he continued to pant heavily.

    Despite his limbs feeling weak, there was an undisguised joy in Gu He''s eyes.

    He knew that, under the influence of the Emperor Supreme Pill and his own determination, he had successfully broken through to the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Emperor!

    In other words, Gu He was now a Nine-Star Dou Emperor, just one step away from the level of Dou Zong!

    Feeling the immensely powerful force within his body, a hint of excitement flashed in Gu He''s eyes.

    The strength of the Nine-Star Dou Emperor''s peak was enough to make him stride proudly through the Gamma Empire.

    At this moment, Gu He finally felt a trace of self-preserving power.

    Subsequently, he thought of something and sat down slowly.

    With a thought, his Divine Fire Technique began to envelop Gu He''s entire body.

    Gu He operated the Divine Fire Body Refining Technique, refining his physical body while simultaneously tempering the somewhat unstable Dou Qi caused by ingesting the Emperor Supreme Pill.
