For example, the reason that gave rise to the Forbidden Epoch or the events that took place in the intervening years after the First Great War Against Heaven.

 

In the eyes of the Black-Robed Elder, it was like the truth had been shrouded in a layer of dense fog. Although it seemed as though he could clearly see the truth, it was not until he tried to take a closer look that he discovered the fog kept becoming thicker and thicker. The scenes he distinctly witnessed earlier turned blurry and confusing once more.

 

From his perspective, the current Gu Changge seemed to be standing in the middle of dense fog. Every action and every word from Gu Changge flooded him with a sense of incredulity and mystery.

 

All of a sudden, the realisation seemed to strike him. He turned to stare at Gu Changge with an expression of disbelief.

 

“Could it be that you, like the Early Ancestor, encountered the indomitable force from the Land of Truth?”

 

Apart from that possibility, he could not think of any other possibilities that could cause Gu Changge to undergo reincarnation. After all, even the supreme powerhouses of the other Ancient True Worlds could not harm Gu Changge at his peak state.

 

However, the very thought frightened him tremendously. That would mean even the horrifying power from the Land of Truth could not permanently kill Gu Changge. It could only force him into reincarnation.

 

Many years had passed since then, but Gu Changge had returned to the world once again. He did not die. Would that not mean he was much stronger than the Early Ancestor of the Gu Family?

 

After all, even the Early Ancestor had feared that mysterious force. He once claimed that the force was something no living creature in the world could oppose. Just a wisp of the aura was enough to eradicate all living creatures and cause any cultivator to vanish into thin air.

 

“No wonder you have such courage and audacity to speak such words. You are the same as the Early Ancestor. In fact, you might even go further than the Early Ancestor himself…”

 

At this moment, the Black-Robed Elder finally seemed to grasp the situation. The hint of a bitter smile curled the corners of his mouth.

 

Gu Changge did not say much in regard to that statement and simply maintained his faint smile. Since the Black-Robed Elder was independently making various connections in that direction, he had no reason to expose the actual truth.

 

The members of the Gu Family inside the ancestral hall only partially understood the puzzling conversation. Nevertheless, that did not affect their ability to understand the meaning behind Black-Robed Elder’s words.

 

[Gu Changge was an existence on the same level as the Gu Family’s Early Ancestor!? He might have even progressed further than the Early Ancestor?]

 

“To go further than the Early Ancestor… That would definitely make him the strongest person throughout all ages…”

 

Their hearts were filled with amazement. Learning about the many secrets of the Gu Family had already shocked them in the first place, so much so that it had taken them some time just to digest these facts. They did not expect Gu Changge’s origins to be even more powerful and ancient than the Early Ancestor.

 

Not to mention, these words had come directly from the mouth of the Founding Ancestor himself. The shock and disbelief they felt at that moment was even greater than the shock they felt when hearing about the deeds of their Early Ancestor.

 

“Having you protect the Mountains and Oceans True World is certainly more effective than any other defensive measures.”

 

The Black-Robed Elder’s complexion had returned to normal, but his heart remained agitated. He had slowly come to understand the situation.

 

Gu Changge had mentioned earlier that the Mountains and Oceans True World was not that simple. In that case, he was bound to have his own considerations and plans regarding the matter. However, the Black-Robed Elder did not intend to question him any further.

 

Thanks to Gu Changge’s presence, there was nothing to worry about regarding the so-called Great Purge caused by the Hunters. In fact, it would be hard to say who would be the hunter and who would be the prey when the time came.

 

“I did not remain in the Mountains and Oceans True World just to protect this place.” Gu Changge smiled faintly, the light in his eyes gradually becoming dark. He continued, “Heaven is unkind. Therefore, I wish to establish the Heavenslayers Alliance and utilise the power throughout the ages to overthrow it and purge the world of evil. I came here today because I wanted to ask you for a favour, Ancestor.”

 

The Black-Robed Elder’s eyebrows twitched once more when he heard those words. Even so, the request did not seem strange when he considered Gu Changge’s origins. The only thing he could do was restrain himself so that he remained calm and did not make a fuss over these matters.

 

At Gu Changge’s cultivation Realm, the pursuit of Dao and Principles had already reached its limit. The Dao might be infinite, but the path that cultivators traversed had an end. For cultivators like Gu Changge and the Early Ancestor of the Gu Family, they were already standing at the end of the road. It was for that reason they were no longer considering how to survive the Great Purges or how to overcome the Decay Tribulations. On the contrary, they wondered about how to rebel against Heaven and how to break through the barrier at the end of the road to head toward infinity.

 

“Tell me, what do you want from me?” The Black-Robed Elder asked gloomily, knowing that he had no room to reject the request. Even though he was Gu Changge’s Ancestor in this life, that fact did not change anything. It was unlikely that Gu Changge would give him the right to choose regarding such matters.

 

“I want you to join me in establishing the Heavenslayers Alliance.”

 

Gu Changge spoke the words ‘Heavenslayers Alliance’ without the slightest hint of fear or hesitation. Just as the Black-Robed Elder’s expression was about to change drastically, he continued speaking. “The Heavenslayers Alliance will not consist of just my strength alone. Only by gathering all the powers in the world will there be a chance for us to defeat Heaven and right the wrongs. As you can see, I have yet to return to my prime. I also lack ancient cultivators who are capable of taking the lead by my side. The birth of the Heavenslayers Alliance is not something that can be completed overnight. In this process, my role will only be the necessary pushing force at most. If we wish to break the cage and make contact with the Power of Truth to set things right, then we need to gather the various powers from throughout the ages…”

 

The members of the Gu Family did not understand the meaning behind these words. However, they could deduce that the information contained within those words was absolutely terrifying just by looking at the Black-Robed Elder’s increasingly solemn expression.

 

Defeat Heaven and right the wrongs? They did not even dare to imagine such things.

 

Meanwhile, the Black-Robed Elder’s expression darkened completely. He fell into silent contemplation. That was because Gu Changge’s words had created huge waves in his heart. It was impossible for him to calm down.

 

[Defeat Heaven and right the wrongs? That was something even the Early Ancestor had not dared to say… Who under the ever vast Heaven and billions of universes would dare to speak such words?]

 

Even the Heavenslayer Sect that was established in the Nine Heavens only dared to take that name due to the special nature of the Nine Heavens. If they took a single step out of the Nine Heavens, they would probably suffer a terrifying backlash that would reduce them to ashes in an instant.

 

“Of course, I will give you some time to consider. You don’t have to decide whether you agree or not right now. This is just a suggestion from me.”

 

The profound expression on Gu Changge’s face faded, and the faint smile returned. The Heavenslayers Alliance was merely the first step in his plans. Besides, his subsequent plans were more important to him.

 

A large part of the reason he spoke to the Black-Robed Elder in such a manner was that there was indeed a shortage of suitable ancient cultivators in the Mountains and Oceans True World nowadays. Even the ancient beings, who survived the previous Great Purge, had not reached the Immortal Emperor Realm, let alone touched upon the Path of Transcendence.

 

“I understand.”

 

The Black-Robed Elder nodded but did not give Gu Changge a clear answer. Such matters should not be spoken or agreed to so easily. They should be regarded with extreme caution.

 

After all, that mysterious gaze was not a joke to be taken lightly.

 

Just like when Gu Changge talked about rebelling against Heaven, thunder had erupted in the void without warning and the horrifying power had nearly descended upon them. The higher one’s cultivation, the more one had to pay attention to such matters. If an ordinary person had spoken those words, there would not have been any impact on the world.

 

At this moment, the Black-Robed Elder was considering whether he should look for a method to contact the Master Family in the Nine Heavens to discuss these matters. Although they had always aimed to resurrect the Early Ancestor, that did not mean they were willing to become the prey of others and be harvested at will. Furthermore, the reason the Early Ancestor perished back then was that he encountered the great horror of the Land of Truth, which then forced him to transform himself into worlds of todays.

 

Gu Changge left the Gu Family without any further conversation with the other Ancestors or Family members. His status was different now. Even if he put aside everything and spoke to them calmly, they would be scared and uneasy.

 

As for his parents in this life, he simply glanced toward the distance for a moment before he turned around to leave.

 

Gu Lintian had stepped down from his position as the Head of the Gu Family. Both Gu Changge’s parents had long since focused their concentration on their cultivation, so they were currently cultivating in seclusion.

 

Gu Changge secretly channelled a wisp of Innate Creation Qi to them. Although he could not help them overturn their innate nature, it was easy for him to help them shed their mortal body and become stronger.

 

Nowadays, everybody was simply struggling to survive in the world. If they remained stagnant in place, they would quickly be drowned and buried by the tides of the era. Therefore, many cultivators stubbornly refused to give up and strove to fight for a chance of survival even though the world was in chaos and the Great Purge was about to strike.

 

Gu Changge’s feelings toward the matter were not particularly deep. He had seen too many similar scenes. As a result, he had gotten so familiar with such situations that it was difficult for him to feel anything toward these situations again.

 

In the following months, the Upper Realm, the Immortal Domain, and the Other Domain experienced many shocking phenomena.

 

Several Ancestors of Immortal Emperor Families emerged in the Other Domain during this period. They had previously been slumbering in some remote corner of the land without moving for eons.

 

At the moment of their reawakening, the aura of Quasi-Immortal Emperors soared into the sky and shook the entire universe. The surrounding universes rumbled loudly from the violent collision of the Daos. Countless Principles simultaneously intertwined with each other and rained down from the end of the sky like a great waterfall.

 

Contrary to expectations, these Quasi-Immortal Emperors kept a low profile after their awakening. They did not dare to be arrogant, having learned about everything that took place recently. Even though they were powerful, they were not invincible in the chaotic world of today. That was especially true when they learned about the powerful enemy that would arrive from outside the Boundless Expanse within a hundred years, beings who would bring endless disasters to the world.

 

When that time came, everybody would be reduced to mere sacrificial offerings and sacrificed along with the world. Seeing as even the Immortal Kings were nothing more than cannon fodder, the Quasi-Immortal Emperors would simply be slightly more powerful cannon fodder when being compared.

 

The Quasi-Immortal Emperors were filled with fear and unease. They initially believed that their revival would provide them with the opportunity to further improve their cultivation. Who could have imagined that the reality would be so cruel and tragic? It could even be described as pure despair.

 

Naturally, that was merely the situation in the Other Domain. Many ancient figures continued to be reawaken in certain places in the Immortal Domain and the Upper Realm.

 

King Luo and the others, who were responsible for guarding the Boundless Battlefield, witnessed many figures emerging from that place throughout this period. They even saw a white-haired old man crossing the embankment and walking toward the outside of the Boundless Expanse with a young girl by his side.

 

That particular scene shocked them to the core. The old man was definitely a mighty expert whose cultivation had not only surpassed the Immortal King but also the Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

 

When Queen Lunar previously attempted to cross the embankment, she nearly lost her life in the process yet failed to even approach the embankment. In comparison, the white-haired old man was unfathomable. He even brought a young girl beside him, who seemed to be his disciple.

 

King Luo and the others immediately reported the matter to Gu Changge. However, Gu Changge did not pay much attention to their reports.

 

More and more ancient unparalleled figures were reawakened during this period. There were many among them whose cultivation not only surpassed the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm but also radiated the aura of a True Immortal Emperor. It was just that they did not attract Gu Changge’s attention unless they had surpassed the Immortal Emperor Realm and entered the Path of Nine Decays.

 

Gu Changge focused more of his attention on refining the Demon Lord True Blood and returning to his peak condition when he was the Demon Lord. The drop of Demon Lord True Blood left behind in the Demon-Burying Abyss was actually something he had prepared a long time ago. Although the Demon Lord’s body had been destroyed, the Demon Lord’s blessings and cultivation that he accumulated at the time had long been condensed into this drop of True Blood.

 

When he sealed Chan Honyi inside the Demon-Burying Abyss, the drop of True Blood had also been sealed along with her.

 

The reason she gradually became possessed was not due to her mental state but rather the constant exposure over countless days and nights to the aura that emanated from the drop of True Blood.

 

Needless to say, part of the reason behind Gu Changge’s actions at the time was that he wanted Chan Honyi to concurrently watch over the drop of True Blood. Rather than saying that he had sealed her in that place, it was more accurate to say that he wanted her to guard this drop of True Blood until he could retrieve the drop of True Blood in the future.

 

Many years passed in the blink of an eye, and Gu Changge finally stood up once more in the boundless void. Almost all the inheritance he accumulated in the past had been refined and absorbed.

 

The Path of Transcendence, which was also known as the Dao Realm, consisted of Nine Immortal Decays. Be that as it may, he did not need to comprehend many Dao Techniques like ordinary cultivators. When his cultivation reached the threshold, he would naturally break through to the next Realm.

 

Just like how he had previously added points through the System, he could further evolve his Fatum, which could be converted to Fortuity and back, into power via certain rules. In fact, they were essentially the same. The previous process had simply been disguised as the System and made simple.

 

He observed the current situation in each world. Compared to the initial panic and unrest when the news of the Great Purge was first announced, peace and order had temporarily been restored following the gradual recovery of the long forgotten experts from each Force. Unfortunately, this was merely a superficial situation.

 

In any case, he was not interested in such matters and simply swept his gaze over his acquaintances. The Gu Family’s Ancestor had yet to answer him. It would seem the other party was still mulling over things.
