Chapter 417: Breaking Through to the Pinnacle of Nine-Star Dou Venerate!

It had been seven days since Gu He and Yun Yun's wedding, and the festive atmosphere within the Yunlan Sect had somewhat diminished.

In the Nine-Colored Valley, Gu He, for the first time since his grand wedding, had gathered all four of his disciples.

At this moment, Liu Ling, Xiao Yi Xian, Nalan Yanran, and Qing Lin stood in front of Gu He and Yun Yun.

Gu He's gaze lingered on Nalan Yanran as he slowly spoke, "Yanran, starting today, your master will fully hand over the Yunlan Sect to you. Are you ready?"

"Ready. I will definitely fulfill my duties as the Sect Leader!"

Nalan Yanran nodded, her response was crisp and without a hint of hesitation.

Hearing Nalan Yanran's answer, Gu He nodded with satisfaction, "Yanran, it's good that you have such confidence... However, you shouldn't be overly constrained by the position of Sect Leader. Your master believes that after the trials in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, you will be able to handle these responsibilities well."

"I understand, Master!" Nalan Yanran nodded heavily.

"Your master here will leave Yunlan Sect with your mistress in a month. We might go to Central State for a period, but it won't exceed two years."

After explaining the matter of Nalan Yanran succeeding as the Sect Leader of Yunlan Sect, Gu He also talked to a few disciples about his upcoming itinerary.

"Central State, that region is said to be countless times more vast than the Northwest Continent?"

"It's said that only Dou Huang-level experts have the strength to wander there on their own."

Hearing Gu He's words, his disciples also showed some anticipation.

"Your future paths are for you to decide, I won't arrange them for you. If you want to go to Central State someday, just go!" Seeing their reactions, Gu He continued.

"Master, Central State is so big, can we meet you there?" Xiao Yi Xian asked hopefully.

"I'm not sure either. However, if any of you make a name for yourselves in Central State, and I hear about it, I'll come to find you!" Gu He replied.

After giving some final instructions, Gu He resumed his retreat. This time, he intended to completely absorb the five hundred years of cultivation at the Five-Star Dou Venerate level stored in the system space, to have more confidence when venturing into Central State.

During this time, Yun Yun officially announced her abdication to all the elders and disciples of Yunlan Sect, appointing Nalan Yanran as the new Sect Leader.

...

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been twenty-four days since Gu He began his retreat. His cultivation had already reached the Seven-Star Dou Venerate level, much higher than when he previously refined the two hundred years of cultivation. This time, the process of refining the five hundred years of Five-Star Dou Venerate cultivation was significantly faster.

On the twenty-fourth day, the energy of heaven and earth in the Nine-Colored Valley suddenly surged violently. An invisible wave emanated from the meditating Gu He. If it weren't for the many seals Gu He had set up within the Nine-Colored Valley, the intense waves might have already shattered the rocks and sent debris flying everywhere.

As this invisible wave spread, the aura emanating from Gu He also soared at this moment. This surge was almost instantaneous, like a volcanic eruption, swift as lightning, and fierce as thunder!

"Bang!"

His aura surged like lightning, and in an instant, a deep rumbling sound echoed in the depths of Gu He's soul. The Dou Qi within him frantically surged, his long hair danced wildly, and his robe billowed violently. Under this immense aura, even the seals within the Nine-Colored Valley struggled to withstand the pressure. Cracks rapidly spread from where Gu He sat, swiftly covering most of the Nine-Colored Valley.

Sensing the commotion, the others in the Nine-Colored Valley turned their gazes toward Gu He's location.

"Master has become even stronger!"

"This aura makes one's soul tremble with awe!"

Looking in Gu He's direction, everyone in the Nine-Colored Valley, including a few beasts, couldn't help but be filled with admiration.

...

Gu He ended his cultivation at this moment. He glanced around at the damage he had caused and murmured to himself, "The pinnacle of Nine-Star Dou Venerate, just as I anticipated... Next, it's time to refine and compress my Dou Qi to advance towards becoming a Saint."

In the Dou Qi continent, there were many strong individuals who had reached the pinnacle of Nine-Star Dou Venerate, but few had become Saints.

Despite the seemingly small gap between the pinnacle of Dou Venerate and half-Saint, this step was like a chasm, with a difference so vast it was indescribable.

This short distance had caused countless talented individuals to fall short, dying with immense regret.

The reason for this was that hidden within this short distance was a unique form of cultivation that only those nearing this level could sense.

In Central State, some top experts referred to this unique cultivation as the Nine Transformations to Sainthood.

The so-called Nine Transformations served as a term to measure the gap between the pinnacle of Dou Venerate and half-Saint. The difference between these two was so terrifyingly vast that it required a more nuanced yet substantial term for differentiation.

The Nine Transformations themselves were not complicated. Simply put, it involved nine cycles of refining and compressing Dou Qi. When a Dou Venerate at the pinnacle found their Dou Qi completely full with no room for more, the Nine Transformations began.

At this stage, they needed to refine and compress all their Dou Qi, creating space for new Dou Qi to be generated. Once the Dou Qi was full again, the process had to be repeated.

After nine cycles, perfection was achieved!

The Dou Qi within would undergo a qualitative change through this compression, allowing the practitioner to leap across the insurmountable chasm and truly enter the Saint level.

Therefore, those who reached this point referred to this hidden cultivation within the pinnacle of Dou Venerate as the Nine Transformations!

Only after completing the Nine Transformations could one become a Saint.

Though the Nine Transformations sounded simple, in practice, it was immensely challenging. Just consider the vast amount of Dou Qi a pinnacle Dou Venerate could hold. Filling it nine times over was a daunting task worthy of the term "terrifying."

However, the obstacles that normal pinnacle Dou Venerate experts feared would not hinder Gu He. With the cultivation energy he received from his disciples' contributions, Gu He would never lack Dou Qi. All he needed to do was refine and compress his Dou Qi whenever it overflowed.
