My son is about to break through.

Sever the causal link!
That wisp of ethereal light flew out from Gu Qingfeng's palm, silent and still, yet containing the immense power to sever all connections in the world.

A ghostly light swept across the void, severing cause and effect and collapsing destiny wherever it passed, as if even the river of time paused briefly in that instant.

next moment.

The eerie light fell upon the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars.

In that instant—

"boom!!!"

The entire Chaos Sea, as if a primordial chaotic stone from the beginning of creation had been thrown into it, suddenly boiled over!
Throughout countless ages, the Chaos Sea has been plagued by disordered rules and constant storms, but it has never experienced such violent turmoil.

Those chaotic currents of rules were now being stirred up by an invisible giant hand, surging, colliding, and annihilating wildly!
The chaotic energy that had been dormant for countless billions of years roared like an ancient beast that had been awakened!

The entire chaotic sea trembled!

And above the Chaos Sea—

The heavens suddenly changed!

The originally gray and chaotic void was suddenly covered with dark clouds!

Those dark clouds were no ordinary clouds or mist, but rather a manifestation of the will of Heaven and the condensation of the rules of Heaven and Earth!

Thick, dark clouds, reaching tens of thousands of feet high, enveloped the entire chaotic sea!

Thunder flashed within the dark clouds!
That thunder was no ordinary thunder.

That was the lightning of heavenly tribulation!

It is a calamity sent down by Heaven!

It is a thunderbolt containing the supreme power to destroy all dissidents!

Thunder roared and churned in the clouds, like countless thunder dragons howling! Each thunder dragon was tens of thousands of feet long, its body wreathed in purple-gold lightning, radiating a terrifying pressure that would make any Celestial Venerable tremble in fear!
The number of Thunder Dragons is in the tens of thousands!

They converged and formed a sea of ​​lightning, surging and roaring above the chaotic sea, as if it would pour down at any moment and completely wipe out the entire chaotic sea along with everything in it!
"Heavenly Tribulation!"

The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars looked up at the overwhelming tribulation clouds, the tens of thousands of thunder dragons, and the terrifying scene that seemed to be about to destroy everything.

There was no fear in his chaotic eyes; instead, they shone with an intense light!
That's the will to fight!

That's anger!
That was the rage that could finally be vented after being imprisoned for endless years!

"You have suppressed me for countless years!"

The Lord of Myriad Stars spoke, his voice like thunder rolling across the sky, shaking the entire Chaos Sea!

"Now that I've escaped my cage, I won't let you control me!"

As soon as the words fell—

The Heavenly Dao seemed to be completely enraged!
"boom--!!!"

A bolt of lightning as thick as a mountain range crashed down from the clouds of calamity!
The lightning was purplish-gold in color, containing the majesty and destructive power of the Heavenly Dao. Wherever it passed, the void collapsed, the Great Dao was annihilated, and even the chaotic energy was completely dissipated under this strike!
The power of this lightning bolt is enough to kill any half-step immortal on the spot!
however--

The Lord of All Stars burst into laughter!

There was no fear in that laughter, only the exhilaration of finally releasing the pent-up repression of countless years!

"Good timing!"

He took a step forward!
That supreme body, comparable to a galaxy, stirred up the entire Chaos Sea with this one step. Countless chaotic currents of rules were shattered by his foot, and countless chaotic energies were annihilated by his shock!
He raised his right hand and clenched his fist!

That punch contained no fancy supernatural powers, no complex laws, only—

Pure, ultimate power!

"boom--!!!"

A punch was thrown!
A raging torrent of world-destroying power poured forth from the fist. This torrent was neither a law nor a supernatural power, but the ultimate manifestation of pure strength!
The power of this punch transformed into a raging torrent, colliding fiercely with the descending lightning bolt!
"Boom—!!!"

The moment the two forces collided, the world lost its color!

The aftershocks of the collision transformed into a destructive shockwave that swept outwards in all directions.

Wherever it passed, the void was torn apart like paper, and the chaotic energy was annihilated like dust. Those stars that were already on the verge of collapse were completely reduced to nothingness at this moment.

A mere wisp of escaping power was enough to cause the annihilation and destruction of countless civilizations.

This is the power of the Lord of All Stars.

This is the power of the being that stands at the very top of this starry sky.

The Lord of All Stars was completely unconcerned about this.

It's not cruelty, not bloodthirstiness, but true indifference.

Just like how higher-dimensional life ignores lower-dimensional life.

Just like humans' indifference towards ants under their feet.

It's not that I deliberately stepped on it, but rather that I simply didn't notice it.

Having lived for countless years, he had witnessed the rise and fall of too many civilizations and the life and death of too many living beings.

Those civilizations, those creatures, were not even a ripple in the long river of his life.

All he cared about was the heavenly tribulation before him.

Only the Heavenly Dao, which imprisoned him for endless years.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

One heavenly tribulation after another struck down!
Each one is enough to bring down a half-step immortal!
Each one contains the inviolable majesty of the Way of Heaven!

however--

The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars unleashed punch after punch!
His body was stained with blood, and his Taoist robe was torn, but his fighting spirit grew stronger and stronger!
His laughter grew louder and louder!
His power is becoming increasingly violent!

Although the heavenly tribulation was powerful, it could not harm him in the slightest!
This is the innate demon god.

This is an existence born at the beginning of chaos, sharing the same origin as heaven and earth.

His power does not come from laws, supernatural powers, or any acquired cultivation.

His power comes from within himself.

It comes from that body that was born with heaven and earth.

It comes from the origin that is the same as creation itself.

One force can overcome all laws!

These four words are perfectly embodied in this innate demon god.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The power of the heavenly tribulation gradually weakened.

One by one, the thunder dragons vanished.

Those clouds of calamity thinned out layer by layer.

The Lord of Myriad Stars let out a long roar and stepped into the tribulation clouds!
His unparalleled body, comparable to a galaxy, was now stained with blood, but his aura was even stronger than before!
He stretched out his hands and grabbed directly at the still churning clouds of calamity!

Those tribulation clouds are the manifestation of the will of Heaven. They are formless and intangible, and ordinary cultivators cannot touch them at all!
But the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars' hand truly grasped it!

His hands, like two ancient divine mountains, firmly locked the two ends of the tribulation clouds!
Then--

Sudden force!

"Rip—!!!"

The tribulation clouds, which seemed to cover the entire chaotic sea and were tens of thousands of feet thick, were torn in two by him!

Fragments of the tribulation clouds scattered and flew everywhere, then transformed into specks of light in the void and vanished without a trace!

The lightning dissipated!

The heavenly might has faded!

Clarity has been restored to the heavens!

"What can Heaven do to me?!"

The Lord of All Stars roared to the heavens!

He stood above the chaotic sea, his body stained with blood and his Taoist robe torn, but his aura was stronger than ever before!
As he stood there, he was declaring to the entire starry sky—

Lord of All Stars, you're free!

……

a long time.

The Lord of Myriad Stars concealed his aura.

His unparalleled body, comparable to a galaxy, began to slowly shrink.

A million feet.

One hundred thousand feet.

lofty.

Thousands of feet.

Hundred feet.

Eventually, it returned to the size of a normal person.

The starry river transformed into a Taoist robe, which draped over his body.

The starry river robe was deep and vast, with countless stars twinkling within it, as if an entire star field was worn on one's body.

Her long black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, moving on its own even without wind.

His face was resolute, with sharp features, as if carved by a knife and axe.

His eyes were like unfathomable abysses, so deep they seemed capable of swallowing all light.

His aura was as heavy as an ancient sacred mountain, inspiring awe in those who looked upon him.

This is the human form of the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars.

As a primordial demon god, he could have maintained his true form, which was comparable to a galaxy, indefinitely.

However, its true form was too enormous, and every move it made would affect the rules of heaven and earth, making it inconvenient to move around in the outside world.

Although the human form has shrunk in size, it concentrates all its power into one body, making it even more refined and restrained.

He took a step.

This step marked the beginning of the chaotic sea.

He stepped out of the cage that had imprisoned him for countless years.

With that step, he felt an unprecedented sense of freedom.

There is no suppression from the Heavenly Dao.

There are no rules to bind us.

There was no imprisonment by the Chaos Sea.

He was finally free.

The Lord of All Stars took a deep breath, sensing the aura of the outer starry sky.

That aura was completely different from that of the Chaos Sea.

"Okay..." he murmured to himself, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

"What a magnificent outer space."

He turned around and looked at Gu Qingfeng, who was not far away.

Gu Qingfeng stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm, as if the earth-shattering battle just now was just a trivial matter.

In fact, Gu Qingfeng had already quietly left the area of ​​the Chaos Sea before the Heavenly Tribulation descended.

It wasn't out of fear of heavenly tribulation, but rather a desire to see—

The true power of the Lord of All Stars.

Although the Heavenly Tribulation was powerful, it did not truly reach the level of immortality.

If even the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars cannot handle such a heavenly tribulation, then Gu Qingfeng will naturally have to reassess the value of this innate demon god.

If he doesn't even have the power to break free from his cage, how can he be qualified to be an ally of the human race?
result--

He was quite satisfied with the performance of the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars.

It tore through the heavenly tribulation, confronted the heavenly Dao head-on, and was in no way inferior.

While this level of strength hasn't truly reached the immortal realm, it's already nearly there.

Of all the near-immortal beings, the Lord of Myriad Stars was the most powerful one Gu Qingfeng had ever seen, without exception.

Even the top experts on the Longevity Immortal Stele of the Evil God Clan are far from being a match for this Primordial Demon God.

Such beings are merely suppressed by the rules of the starry sky; otherwise, breaking through to the Immortal Celestial Venerable Realm would be an easy task.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for helping me escape this predicament!"

The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars walked up to Gu Qingfeng and bowed with clasped hands.

He performed this bow willingly.

If Gu Qingfeng hadn't severed his karmic ties with the starry sky, he would probably still be slumbering in the Chaos Sea, waiting for who knows how many more years before such an opportunity arrives.

"Congratulations on your escape, Fellow Daoist Wanxing."

Gu Qingfeng smiled slightly and returned the greeting with a fist and palm salute.

"From this moment on, the hidden dragon emerges from the abyss, and there are no more constraints in the world."

"A dragon emerges from the abyss..."

The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars murmured these four words repeatedly, his smile growing ever wider.

"What a brilliant example of a dragon emerging from the abyss."

"I like this way of putting it."

He looked up, gazing into the depths of the starry sky, his eyes as deep and unfathomable as an abyss.

"I have been trapped in the Chaos Sea for countless years, and now I have finally been freed. I want to take a good look at this starry sky outside."

Gu Qingfeng nodded: "No rush, there's plenty of time."

"I wonder what your plans are next?" the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars asked.

"Wait."

Gu Qingfeng's words were concise and to the point.

"wait?"

"Wait for the opportunity to leave this starry sky."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars nodded slightly and did not ask any further questions.

He was extremely satisfied that he had been able to emerge from the Chaos Sea.

As for waiting a little longer, it doesn't matter to him.

As a primordial demon god, the Lord of Myriad Stars was destined for immortality.

However, the rules of this star system do not allow the existence of immortals, so he hid in the Chaos Sea to avoid being wiped out by the Heavenly Dao.

But it is different now.

Having severed his causal ties with the starry sky, the Lord of All Stars no longer belongs to the beings of this starry sky.

The so-called limitations on longevity will naturally dissipate.

……

Then.

Gu Qingfeng, accompanied by the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars, returned to the Ancient Netherworld Holy Land.

The moment that legendary innate demon god stepped into the Ancient Netherworld Holy Land, the entire holy land trembled.

The Ancient Nether Saint Lord received the news immediately and hurriedly went out to greet him.

Ancient Celestial Venerables such as Feng Xuan and Li Chenzhou also awoke from their seclusion and came to pay their respects.

When their gazes fell upon the figure clad in a starry robe, with cascading black hair and an aura as deep as the ocean, they all froze in place.

Lord of all stars.

The ruler of the Chaos Sea.

The primordial demon gods that existed since the beginning of time.

For those ancient celestial beings, the existence of the Lord of Myriad Stars was naturally something they had heard of.

The oppressive aura, the primordial Daoist charm that seemed to originate from the same source as heaven and earth and be rooted in creation, made even these ancient celestial beings who had lived for countless years feel a sense of unease.

"Greetings, Senior Wan Xing."

The Ancient Nether Saint Lord was the first to react and hurriedly bowed in respect.

Feng Xuan, Li Chenzhou, and the others also bowed in greeting.

The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars glanced at them and nodded slightly in response.

He didn't say much.

In his eyes, these Eight Tribulation Celestial Venerables were no different from ants.

If they weren't Gu Qingfeng's followers, he wouldn't even give them a second glance.

Gu Qingfeng didn't care about this.

He instructed the Ancient Nether Saint Lord to arrange accommodations for the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars, and then returned to his own Immortal Palace.

……

For the rest of the time, Gu Qingfeng went into seclusion in the Ancient Netherworld Holy Land.

As for the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars, he remained in the Ancient Netherworld Holy Land.

But the other party had been sleeping in the Chaos Sea for countless years. Now that it has been freed, how could it stay?
Upon learning of the existence of the evil god clan, he couldn't help but take action.

The Lord of Ten Thousand Stars had long heard of the evil god race.

He also wanted to test the strength of these evil gods from the outside world.

result--

Vulnerable.

Faced with such supreme powerhouses below the level of immortality, the evil god race was naturally no match.

Those evil gods and celestial beings are like ants before the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars.

Even a top-tier Nine Tribulation Supreme is powerless against the Lord of Myriad Stars.

The evil god race was already at a disadvantage in the starry sky, and now with the addition of the Lord of Ten Thousand Stars, it will be even more difficult for them to stand out.

……

Ten million years.

In the blink of an eye.

This day.

In the ancient and sacred land, within the celestial palace.

Gu Qingfeng suddenly opened his eyes.

His gaze pierced through the walls of the Immortal Palace, through the nine sacred mountains of the Ancient Netherworld, through layers of void, and looked into the depths of the starry sky.

In the darkness, a force of rules emerged.

That power of rules did not come from him, but from this starry sky.

It was rejecting him.

It was as if the entire starry sky was rejecting him.

Although this rejection wasn't particularly strong, Gu Qingfeng understood a lot.

"It seems the time is about right."

He murmured to himself.

If nothing unexpected happens, when this repulsive force reaches its peak, all non-starry-sky native creatures will be directly thrown out of the starry sky.

That would be the best opportunity to leave this immortal secret realm.

Thinking of this.

Gu Qingfeng got up and left the pass.

……

Upon learning the news, the Ancient Nether Saint Lord immediately came to pay his respects.

"senior!"

He bowed respectfully.

But Gu Qingfeng noticed that there was a hint of excitement in his expression, along with a touch of unease.

"Senior, I feel the repulsion of the Heavenly Dao. Could it be that I must leave the starry sky?"

"The Ancient Nether Saint Lord asked, his voice carrying a hint of undisguised expectation, and a hint of hidden worry."

After all, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Even the Ancient Nether Saint Lord, who had lived for hundreds of billions of years, could not be completely at ease about such an unfamiliar thing.

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly.

You're right.

"When this repulsive force reaches its peak, it will leave the starry sky directly."

"Your connection with this starry sky has been severed by my own hand. Now that you can feel the force of repulsion, it means that the Heavenly Dao of this starry sky has already regarded you as an outsider."

"Now all you need to do is wait patiently, and you will be able to travel to the Endless Immortal Realm."

That's it!

The Ancient Nether Saint Lord was certain in his heart.

Although he had expected it, he still felt at ease after receiving the answer from Gu Qingfeng.

"Thank you for your explanation, senior."

He bowed again, his expression full of gratitude. (End of Chapter)
