Due to the fact that the Taoist Ancestor only established a transmission system within the Galaxy, areas outside the Galaxy were collectively referred to by Cultivators as the Endless Outer Domain.
Many high-level cultivator families, as their power and realms improved, continuously expanded into the deeper cosmos outside the domain to search for more Spirit Mines.
With the discovery and mining of more top-grade and superior Spirit Mines, people from level 7 Cultivation Families began continuously venturing into the outer domain.
As long as the Spirit Mines were exhausted, they would expand further in search of new Spirit Mine planets.
Over the past ten thousand years, these Cultivators had expanded their territory to encompass an area nearly ten tis the size of the Galaxy.
This also expanded Gu Feng’s Divine Sense domain by more than tenfold.
However, these top-tier families did not give up any Galactic territories as transit points for nurturing their clansn.
Concerned about the probability of offspring lacking Spirit Roots, ensuring they were not stillborn, they would all return to Earth to give birth.
Then, as their children’s power increased, they would be sent to live in the family’s branches within the Galaxy.
So family planets above the Ten Layers of Heaven, due to their high-dinsional level, also dispatched their lower cultivation family mbers to the Galaxy to nurture them.
Usually, if a planet’s dinsional level exceeds a cultivator’s by four levels, the living conditions beco quite unfavorable for the cultivators.
So, the question arises, why do so many family ancestors choose to develop high-dinsional space and establish planets?
There are many benefits to this.
Firstly, for the safety of the family!
The higher the dinsional level you develop, the less likely it is for lower-dinsional cultivators to detect your existence, ensuring the safety of your people.
Secondly, high-dinsional space territories provide a good environnt for the enlightennt and cultivation advancent of lower-dinsional cultivators.
For instance, if a Ten-layered Heaven cultivator developed a tenth-level dinsional space, cultivators from Sixth to Ninth Layer Heaven could be inspired by the space laws ford by this Ten-layered Heaven cultivator, greatly accelerating their cultivation progress.
In the universe, the combat power of a family is generally gauged by looking at their most powerful cultivator.
Once he can break through a dinsion, the rest of his family mbers will quickly catch up, benefiting from the newly developed space.
But for low-level family mbers, they are often nurtured within the Galaxy.
For instance, Forging Master Gu He, after creating a tenth-level Cultivation Planet for the Artifact Refining Guild, allowed all upper-level executives above Sixth Layer Heaven to station and cultivate on the headquarters planet.
Others were dispatched to transfer stations outside the domain and branches within the Galaxy.
Gu Feng only needed to know the current president’s na and his realm to precisely locate which planet Gu He was on.
Moreover, he could Instant Teleport, bypassing all distances to land on the Artifact Refining Guild’s headquarters planet.
For over ten thousand years, on this headquarters planet, Gu Feng sensed that there were over a hundred thousand Forging Masters of Sixth Layer Heaven and above.
Looking across the entire Cultivation World’s mbers, the number of Artifact Refiners might even reach the tens of millions.
Gu Feng thought that was too few.
You must understand that the current Cultivation World has nearly 20 billion cultivators above Fourth Layer Heaven.
Yet an once brilliant guild did not even have a mbership covering one hundred million globally.
Ultimately, it’s because the guild’s potential is not high, failing to attract those geniuses to join.
Over ti, this developnt hit a bottleneck.
Gu Feng’s sudden appearance triggered the Mountain Protection Array’s alarm of the Artifact Refining Guild.
In an instant, it also disturbed all the Artifact Refiners who ca rushing from all directions.
"Who dares to trespass into the Artifact Refining Guild?"
Many of the closest Artifact Refiners brandished their weapon Magical Treasures, Instant Teleporting to Gu Feng’s front and encircling him.
Protectors and Elders of Ninth Layer Heaven were scolding, trying to intimidate Gu Feng, this uninvited guest.
The guild does not prohibit outsiders from coming.
But there is an official entrance, manned by guards.
If you co in through the official process, that’s fine.
Gu Feng had entered directly without knowing where the entrance was, disregarding all dinsional barriers.
So the Mountain Protection Array had been triggered.
Gu Feng glanced at the hundreds of Artifact Refiners, "I am looking for Gu He."
"Our president is not here, please leave imdiately, or don’t bla us for being impolite!" The Elders naturally wanted to protect the only Ten-Layered Heaven president of the guild, so they lied.
Could Gu Feng possibly not know whether Gu He was there or not?
When he was about to step forward, several Elders from the Ninth Layer Heaven took action.
But their attacks were ineffective and passed right through Gu Feng’s body.
It ant that this uninvited guest was not on the sa dinsional level as them.
When Gu He arrived and saw these ineffective attacks, he imdiately cupped his fists and said, "I am Gu He. May I know which senior has graced our guild headquarters? Please be rciful and do not harm our guild mbers. If we have offended the senior in any way, please enlighten us."
Gu Feng, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked at Gu He, "Which generation president are you?"
Gu He responded, "I am the 13th generation president."
Actually, the guild was declining much faster than the Gu Family.
At least the Gu Family had Lin Yue to support it for two thousand years, and then Gu Qingxue bolstered it for ten thousand years of brilliance.
Whereas the guild, due to the incomplete secret techniques, never had their peak combat power break through the Ten Layers of Heaven, or rather, only Gu He had achieved Great Perfection in the upper half of the secret thod, reaching the Ten-Layer Heaven Realm.
Generally, presidents in history had only reached the Seventh or Eighth Layer Heaven and fell amidst tumultuous struggles, later clinging to survival, subsisting in a state of looking up to the major families.
And Gu He was the president in history who had cultivated the upper half-roll secret technique to Great Perfection and initiated ten Cultivation Planets.
Thus, many Elders voluntarily guarded this gifted president.
"Less than a thousand years, and you’ve cultivated to the peak of Ten Layers of Heaven. Your talent and comprehension seem quite good." Gu Feng could read all the history of a person with just one look.
Gu Feng clicked his tongue, "At least you’re much better than those useless descendants of mine."
If people like Gu Weimin were here, they would definitely feel embarrassed.
However, his words sounded more like a threat to the other Artifact Refiners.
They mistakenly thought that this person did not allow a gifted president in the guild, suggesting he was going to harm their president.
"Protect the president!"
"Activate the Great Array!"
The protector imdiately dashed in front of Gu He, while the Elders had already activated the attack mode of their Mountain Protection Array.
Seeing them so agitated, Gu Feng was speechless, "Using the formation I gave you against ? How audacious of you."
Though it was said late, actions happened swiftly, the Mountain Protection Array had activated and ford a pattern above Gu Feng’s head. Then, a huge long sword quietly erged from the clouds.
It stabbed directly towards Gu Feng’s head.
Gu Feng casually raised his hand, palm facing upward. The next second, the entire Artifact Refining Guild’s Mountain Protection Array was absorbed into his hand, turning into a miniaturized array pattern.
"This!"
Everyone was shocked, stunned, and amazed.
They had encountered countless powerful beings visiting the headquarters, only seeing them use martial power to forcefully shatter that flying sword, but as long as that pattern remained, it could continuously transform into more weapons to attack the opponent.
But no one had ever easily taken away this Mountain Protection Array passed down from the Taoist Ancestor!
But this person indeed had taken it.
"You... who exactly are you?" Gu He watched as the heritage formation left by the Grandmaster was taken away, directly revealing his life-bound magical treasure, with a tendency to go berserk and mutually annihilate with Gu Feng!
Gu Feng glanced at Gu He, "You are only a step away from the Eleventh Layer Heaven. Listen, the last sentence of your peak secret thod’s half-roll is..."
He transmitted a critical derivation of the mystical aning into Gu He’s mind, his whole person suddenly enlightened, and his pupils dilated, instantly comprehending what had puzzled him for a hundred years.
The next second, a heavenly light surged above his head, piercing through the spatial barriers of the entire Ten-Layered Heaven.
"He broke through!"
"The president has broken through! He has advanced to the Eleventh Layer Heaven!"
Everyone present was first shocked then burst into thrilled joy.
