As they practiced day after day, their feelings gradually grew stronger. In this virtual space, they became each other's closest people. They shared the joy of practice and spent countless unforgettable moments together.

During the practice, the vision of the Dream Butterfly Atlas gradually emerged. It was a group of colorful butterflies flying in the virtual space. Every time the wings vibrated, they emitted charming light, which gathered into streams of light, decorating the whole world like a poem or a painting.

"It's so beautiful!" Yudie exclaimed, "I have never seen such a magnificent sight."

Gu Sheng's cultivation also experienced a breakthrough during this process. A powerful force surged in his body, like the surging waves of the sea. His aura continued to rise, and he finally broke through the barrier of the fourth level of the seabed realm and entered the fifth level.

"Congratulations, Mr. Gu, for breaking through!" Yudie congratulated sincerely.

At this moment, the entire virtual space was shaken. Thunder rumbled in the sky, as if cheering for Gu Sheng's breakthrough. His figure loomed in the thunder and lightning, as majestic and domineering as a god of war.

Yudie looked at Gu Sheng with admiration and love in her eyes. She knew that she had chosen a true hero. In the process, she also gained endless knowledge and experience, laying a solid foundation for the revival of the Yu Clan.

When the two walked out of the virtual space, more than a month had passed, and their faces were filled with smiles of satisfaction and happiness.

"Mr. Gu, thank you." Yudie looked at Gu Sheng affectionately, "You not only helped me find the heritage of the Yu Clan, but also made me feel happiness and satisfaction that I have never experienced before."

"You are too polite, Princess." Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "It is my honor to be able to practice and grow with you."

The two people's eyes met at this moment, as if they had an indescribable tacit understanding and resonance. They both knew that no matter what happened in the future, this experience would be remembered forever.

The thunder in the sky gradually dissipated, but the shock in Gu Sheng and Yu Die's hearts could not subside for a long time.

The two of them were in seclusion for training.

Deep in the demon territory, in an ancient palace, the demon leader Yan Ruyu sat on a high platform. Her eyes were deep, as if she could see through all appearances and see the essence of things. At this moment, her eyes were fixed on the sky in the distance, where Gu Sheng and Yudie were practicing in seclusion and causing strange phenomena.

"Holy Lord, that strange vision..." An elder of the demon clan couldn't help but speak, but was interrupted by Yan Ruyu raising her hand.

"I already know." Yan Ruyu's voice was calm and majestic. "Someone is practicing the secret method of my demon race, and it seems that they have made considerable progress."

Another elder frowned and said, "Holy Lord, do we need to send someone to check it out? After all, such a strange phenomenon is likely to attract the attention of other forces."

Yan Ruyu smiled slightly and shook her head, "No need. This is their opportunity, we don't need to interfere. Besides, I believe they can succeed."

The elders heard this, although they still had doubts in their hearts, they did not dare to say anything more. Yan Ruyu's decisions were always well thought out.

However, as time went on, the strange phenomenon became more and more intense, and even began to affect the flow of spiritual energy in the entire demon clan territory. This shocked everyone in the demon clan.

"Holy Lord, the strange phenomenon has lasted for a whole month. Will it have any impact on the demon race?" An elder finally couldn't help but ask again.

Yan Ruyu's eyes flickered, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Pass my order and send people to guard the surrounding area to ensure that no one interferes with their practice. This is an opportunity for our demon race, and also their fortune."

All the elders responded in unison and immediately sent people to the place where the vision appeared to protect the Dharma.

At the same time, Gu Sheng and Yu Die, who were in seclusion, had no idea what was happening in the outside world. They were completely immersed in their practice, feeling each other's breath and rhythm. Their minds seemed to have merged into one, feeling the mystery of the Dream Butterfly Atlas together.

As time went by, their cultivation continued to improve, and their understanding of the Dream Butterfly Atlas became deeper and deeper. A strong light and spiritual fluctuations filled their bodies, as if forming a unique domain.

In this realm, they felt an unprecedented sense of power and control. It seemed as if they could control everything and see through everything. This feeling made them intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

Finally one day, when the two woke up from their cultivation, more than a month had passed. They felt each other's breath and changes, and their hearts were filled with joy and satisfaction.

"We succeeded!" Yudie said excitedly, "We really succeeded!"

Gu Sheng also showed a satisfied smile, "Yes, we succeeded. It's all worth it."

When they came out of the retreat, they found that everyone in the demon tribe was looking at them with strange eyes. They didn't know what happened, but they could feel the shock and awe of everyone.

"Master Gu, Princess Yudie, you are finally out of seclusion!" An elder of the demon tribe came forward, "Do you know how much of a commotion you caused during your seclusion?"

Gu Sheng and Yu Die exchanged glances and smiled at each other, knowing that the results of this retreat had exceeded their expectations. Not only did they comprehend the secrets of the Dream Butterfly Atlas, but they also triggered such a huge vision and sensation. This made them feel extremely proud and satisfied.

"Thank you for your concern and support, elders." Gu Sheng said with a bow, "We have indeed gained something from this retreat, but it is also inseparable from the support and protection of the demon tribe."

Yudie also nodded and agreed: "Yes, thank the demon tribe for giving us this opportunity and platform."

Upon hearing this, the elders nodded in agreement and satisfaction.

Yan Ruyu, who was watching all this silently from a high platform in the distance, also showed a satisfied smile, "It seems that they really succeeded." She thought to herself, "Maybe this is God's will."

As Gu Sheng and Yu Die came out of retreat, the shock and awe of the monster tribe gradually subsided, and the entire monster tribe’s territory returned to its former tranquility and harmony.

A few days after Gu Sheng returned to the Holy Land of Yao Chi, he welcomed two special visitors - the Ji siblings, Ji Xuri and Ji Yewei.

"Gu Sheng, you're back!" Ji Yewei took the lead and jumped into the Yaochi Secret Realm with an excited smile on her face. "I heard that you gained a lot from your retreat this time. Tell me about it!"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a cold voice.

"Gu Sheng, I have heard of your great name for a long time, and today I have come here to learn from you." Ji Xuri walked slowly towards them, with a fighting spirit flashing in his eyes.

Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows, sensing the hostility of the other party, but he did not back down. Instead, he responded calmly: "Since Brother Ji is interested in this, I will naturally accompany you."

"Okay!" Ji Xuri shouted coldly, and his figure disappeared instantly. When he appeared again, he was in front of Gu Sheng and punched out with great momentum.

Gu Sheng dodged the punch skillfully with a flash of his body. At the same time, he activated his martial arts. A vision of golden waves appeared behind him. The golden light of the ancient holy body flowed, and his momentum instantly reached its peak.

"Come on!" Gu Sheng shouted, and slapped out a golden palm, which collided with Ji Xuri's fist, making a deafening roar. Ji Xuri's body shook, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect Gu Sheng's body to be so strong that he could fight him head-on without losing.

"Interesting." Ji Xuri sneered, and his figure disappeared again, turning into a residual shadow that revolved around Gu Sheng. Every time he appeared, he was accompanied by a fierce attack.

Gu Sheng relied on the strong body of the Ancient Saint Body and the flexible body movements of the Nine Swords of Gale to dissolve Ji Xuri's attacks one by one. The battle between the two entered a white-hot stage, and the energy fluctuations in the secret realm became more and more intense.

"Tomorrow rises from the sea!" Ji Xuri suddenly shouted, and a huge tomorrow appeared behind him, crushing towards Gu Sheng. This was his strongest attack, with amazing power.

Gu Sheng's face was solemn, he knew he couldn't withstand this attack. So he activated the Shadow Hiding Skill, his figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and appeared behind Ji Xuri.

"Nine Swift Wind Swords!" Gu Sheng shouted in a low voice, and the colorful Jade Maiden Sword in his hand burst into dazzling light. Nine sword energies were instantly slashed out, pointing directly at Ji Xuri's vital points.

Ji Xuri felt the sword energy coming from behind and dodged quickly, but was still scratched by several of the sword energy. He turned around with anger flashing in his eyes: "How dare you hurt me!"

"In a battle, everyone relies on their own abilities." Gu Sheng said calmly, "If Brother Ji is not convinced, just come again."

Ji Xuri took a deep breath. He knew that Gu Sheng was not an easy opponent. But he did not give up. Instead, he launched another fierce attack. The fight between the two became more and more intense. Every collision caused a huge roar.

However, in this fierce battle, Gu Sheng remained calm and rational. With his flexible body and strong physique, he continued to consume Ji Xuri's strength. Gradually, Ji Xuri's breath began to become rapid.

"Nine Gale Swords - Breaking the Air!" Gu Sheng suddenly launched a fatal attack. The colorful Jade Maiden Sword burst into a dazzling light. A sharp sword energy instantly cut through the sky and pointed directly at Ji Xuri's heart.

Ji Xuri was horrified, he felt the fatal threat of this attack. He tried his best to dodge, but was still cut in the chest by the sword, bleeding profusely.

"I lost..." Ji Xuri uttered these words with difficulty, and his body slowly fell down. His eyes were full of reluctance and astonishment. He did not expect that he would lose to Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng put away the Seven-Colored Jade Maiden Sword, walked to Ji Xuri's side, stretched out his hand to help him up: "Brother Ji, thank you for letting me."

Ji Xuri didn't say anything, but just nodded silently. He knew that Gu Sheng's strength was far superior to his, and this battle made him deeply aware of his own shortcomings.

Ji Yewei, who was watching the battle on the side, was stunned at the scene. She had never seen her brother in such a mess, nor had she seen such a wonderful battle. She felt a sense of admiration for Gu Sheng: "Brother Gu Sheng, you are so awesome!"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly: "This is just a sparring match, not a life-and-death fight. Brother Ji is also very strong. If we really fight to the death, the outcome is still unknown."

Hearing this, Ji Xuri couldn't help but admire Gu Sheng's broad mind and magnanimity. He stood up and looked at Gu Sheng deeply: "I have gained a lot from today's battle. Brother Gu's strength and broad mind make me admire him very much. I hope we can become true friends in the future."

"I hope so too." Gu Sheng stretched out his hand and shook Ji Xuri's hand tightly. "The road ahead is still long. Let's work hard together."

Ji Xuri was very strong-willed. After losing to Gu Sheng, he turned around and left the Holy Land of Yao Chi.

"Don't pay attention to him, he must be in seclusion!"

Ji Yewei knew her brother very well. From childhood to adulthood, he was the only one who could defeat others and had never been defeated. At least he was invincible among his peers.

This time he actually lost to Gu Sheng, a character he simply despised. This was intolerable.

Get up from where you fell, this is Ji Xuri's motto.

After her brother left, Ji Yewei became disrespectful.

"Humph, my brother is like this, he can't stand losing." Ji Yewei curled her lips and said as she looked at Ji Xuri's departing back. Then, she put on a smile again and looked at Gu Sheng, "But it doesn't matter, now that he's gone, we still have plenty of time to play!"

Gu Sheng smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was already used to Ji Yewei's instantaneous mood changes.

"Well, since your brother is gone, how about we go boating?" Gu Sheng suggested.

"Okay, okay!" Ji Yewei's eyes lit up immediately, and she pulled Gu Sheng and ran towards the lake.

The surface of Yaochi Lake was shimmering, like a huge mirror, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and the surrounding green hills and trees. Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei boarded a spiritual energy-driven boat and slowly sailed towards the center of the lake.

"Gu Sheng, how deep do you think the water in the Yao Chi is?" Ji Yewei asked curiously.

"It is said that it is bottomless and no one can detect its true depth." Gu Sheng replied, while controlling the boat to flexibly travel through the lake.

"Wow, really? Wouldn't that mean there would be a lot of mysterious creatures and treasures?" Ji Yewei's eyes were shining with excitement.

Gu Sheng smiled and did not answer, because he knew that Ji Yewei's imagination was always too rich.

The boat shuttled across the lake, and the two chatted while enjoying the scenery of the lake and mountains.

"Gu Sheng, what do you think of my brother?" Ji Yewei suddenly asked.

"Your brother is very strong and a worthy opponent." Gu Sheng said sincerely.

"Humph, of course, my brother is the best!" Ji Yewei said proudly, but then frowned, "However, he must be very unwilling to lose to you this time."

"Winning and losing in competitions are common. What's important is to be able to learn and grow from them," Gu Sheng comforted.

"You're right, my brother will definitely work harder." Ji Yewei nodded and asked, "What do you think of me?"

"You..." Gu Sheng deliberately kept the secret, "You are also very strong. At least among the people I have met, your talent and strength are top-notch."

"Really?" Ji Yewei smiled happily when she heard Gu Sheng's praise, "Then do you think we have a chance..." (End of this chapter)
