Simultaneous travel: I am rampant in the domestic area

Under the witness of the extraordinary Gu Clan, the primeval forest of Jiyuan, stretching for more than twenty miles, rose high.

As the arch rose to a certain height, the ground split and slid down to both sides, revealing a deep red, fleshy spine. This spine was deep red, like skinned flesh, revealing protruding tendons and bulging muscles. On both sides of the spine were rows of vents, from which dark green smoke was being expelled.

It is like an insect larva, which, after growing to a certain extent, will eventually crawl out of the soil and transform into a butterfly.

As He climbed out of the abyss, the soil was pushed up, and tens of millions of tons of rocks and clods of earth were turned up.

He was like a mountain made of flesh and blood, enormous and terrifying, with a row of vents on his spine spewing out dark green smoke that swirled in the sky, forming dark green clouds, and thick shadows flowing at the base of the fleshy mountain.

“It’s really ugly,” Russell exclaimed.

This appearance alone is enough to make one's worldview crumble at a glance.

"Distortion, plunder, fusion—these coincide with your path." Contrary to its terrifying appearance, the Gu God's eyes were full of wisdom, as if they could see through the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers, and through the fleeting years of time. Naturally, it also understood the path that Russell had already begun to follow.

“That makes sense.” Russell took a deep breath, and a chaotic starry universe appeared behind him: “One game to decide the winner, the winner takes all.”

“Good.” The Gu God readily agreed.

Whether it's the supreme Gu God or Russell with multiple dimensions, their means of survival far exceed what others can imagine.

It can be said that in this era where no martial god appears, as long as they don't want to die, they will never die.

The mountain of flesh writhed, and the Gu God's body split open a mouth full of fangs. On its massive body, tendons taut and muscles bulged. Then, it charged headlong at Russell.

He had no intention of controlling the Seven Deadly Gu within Russell's body, because he simply couldn't do it. Ever since Russell advanced to the first rank, he had completely lost his perception of the Seven Deadly Gu.

Russell bowed and clenched his fist. Behind him, the vast universe, with its billions of stars like the sands of the Ganges, moved and expanded in a magnificent pattern as his aura rose.

In a fleeting moment, a meteor streaked across the sky, shattering the silence of the universe. Like the golden light of a supernova explosion, a storm swept across the cosmos, igniting the entire universe.

He threw a punch at the Gu God.

Like two planets colliding, the violent shockwave spread like ripples for dozens of miles, the clouds parted, the ground caved in, and the shockwave spread and peeled off a layer of the ground, pushing it far to the edge.

Wherever it passed, life was annihilated and the earth was blown away, as if it were a world-ending storm.

This level of battlefield is destined to be a no-go zone for life.

From the perspective of the Gu God, all the stars in the sky are rushing towards him.

His massive body lasted only three seconds before exploding into countless fragments.

Each fragment was as big as a millstone, smashing onto the ground like mud, resembling a massive "rain of blood and flesh".

They fell to the ground, soaking Russell's body, and then quickly combined, endless flesh and blood climbing and clinging to Russell's body, trying to wrap him up and devour him.

Russell grinned maliciously, and his body suddenly exploded. The spiritual essence of the Seven Deadly Gu suddenly transformed into strands of light beams, wrapping around the flesh and blood of the Gu God.

In an instant, the entire Abyss was covered by colorful, complex, and indistinguishable lines. These lines intertwined with each other, seemingly a tangled mess, yet maintaining a delicate balance, giving people a chilling feeling that destruction could happen at any moment.

Because there was nowhere to release it, this energy accumulated more and more, compressed and condensed into a black sphere that shone with light, and then completely dissipated.

"How is this going?"

At the border of Yuzhou, Granny Tiangu frowned deeply.

She was the only second-rank Gu among the Gu clan, and a second-rank Heavenly Gu, so her perception of the surrounding environment far surpassed that of everyone else present.

Under her perception, Russell's aura, along with the power of the Gu God, vanished.

This is... a mutual destruction?

“They’ve entered another dimension.” Li Miaozhen didn’t seem flustered at all.

Before facing the God of Gu, Russell had already informed everyone of all the possible events that could happen in the battle for the highest grade and the struggle for the Dao.

"Dimension? What does that mean?" Granny Tiangu asked curiously.

“It refers to another space.” Li Miaozhen explained to the leaders of the Gu clan, then turned around and walked towards the city gate of Yuzhou City: “It’s no use for you to stay here any longer, and we don’t know how long we’ll have to wait. Why don’t we go back to the city and discuss how the Gu clan should survive in Dafeng?”

Although Russell had his reasons, the Governor of Yuzhou had no objection to accepting the Gu Clan members. However, since they belonged to the Great Feng Dynasty, they could no longer live like they did before, without any rules. But the seven extraordinary members of the Gu Clan could not be forcibly restrained by the law. There were still many things to discuss.

"Alright." Granny Tiangu nodded. Just as Li Miaozhen said, their continued presence wouldn't be of any use in the battle, so it would be better to make some plans for the clansmen.

It's late at night.

The capital city, the Imperial Observatory, the Star-Picking Tower.

The supervisor, who was swirling his wine cup on the Bagua platform, suddenly opened his eyes wide. He hurriedly stood up and went to the railing to look southwest. His mind was filled with thoughts, but in the end, he could only utter two words: "Is he alive?"

In the southwest, the omnipresent starlight exploded and surged, with countless stars flowing along a mysterious trajectory, merging into a tide of starlight that poured down upon a single location.

Gradually, terrifying cracks appeared on the surface of the black sphere under the scouring of the starlight tide, spider webs spread across the surface, and colorful energy flames were released.

Strands of energy spilled out and rampaged through the cloud-like matter. The seemingly dazzling light was violently distorted the void the moment it came into contact with it. The energy went berserk, and scorching force fields were constantly generated and destroyed. The powerful spatial pulling force was like a taut string that snapped after a crisp sound.

At the same time, the expressions of Li Miaozhen in Yuzhou City, Xu Qi'an in Shanhaiguan, Luo Yuheng in Lingbao Temple, and Mu Nanzhi in Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion all changed abruptly.

The Starry Night Butterfly, the Giant Sun Scorpion, the Spring and Autumn Cicada, and the Immortal Bee simultaneously emitted bursts of invisible rhythms.

A surging energy flowed, and spiritual energy rose and fell.

It almost illuminated the area where they were located.

"Is it Russell?" Mu Nanzhi's heart was filled with emotion. A few days ago, Luo Yuheng came to tell her that Russell was coming back, but she didn't believe it. Now it seems that it is true.

"Is this another breakthrough?" Unlike Mu Nanzhi, a novice in cultivation, Luo Yuheng, as the leader of a sect, understood that only when the main Gu undergoes a qualitative change can the accompanying child Gu undergo such a significant transformation.

However, he had just gone through the tribulation of the terrestrial immortal with me not long ago, so how come he has made progress again now? Could it be that he has also entered the first-grade realm in martial arts?
A martial artist and a Taoist priest, both holding the highest rank—what a prestigious position! My judgment in choosing a Taoist partner is indeed excellent.

As she laughed, Luo Yuheng unconsciously touched her slender waist, her face flushing. She was already so fierce before she even reached the first rank; now that she's a first-rank martial artist, who knows what kind of trouble she'll cause her.

However... it doesn't matter, the aura of a first-rank martial artist must be incredibly delicious.

If she cultivates with him a few more times, she might not necessarily lose in the battle against the Heavenly Venerable.

"Lord Wei, this!" In the main tent of the northern army camp, Xu Qi'an looked at the giant sun scorpion that illuminated the entire tent with dazzling light, completely bewildered.

"No need to worry, it must be that Russell has made progress." Wei Yuan's guess was exactly the same as Luo Yuheng's, only his guess was more accurate. He rubbed the Array-Breaking Ant on his fingertip and sighed, "Ning Yan, after tens of thousands of years, the Nine Provinces have finally produced another Super Grade." "Super Grade!" Xu Qi'an swallowed hard, inwardly exclaiming, "He really is a cheater! The other party was only a Fifth Grade Transformation Realm cultivator when we first met!"
But the next moment, the expression on his face suddenly froze.

An even brighter, more dazzling beam of light erupted from his body, and a pure white pillar of energy pierced through the white clouds above, a phenomenon visible for dozens of miles around: "Lord Wei!?"

"Don't worry, the fortune will reward you." This time, the answer came from the divine power within him.

Warriors have no ability to manipulate fate, and even Wei Yuan is no exception, though Shen Shu, who cultivates both Zen and martial arts, is an exception.

The outline of a large Buddha sitting cross-legged with a flower in hand slowly took shape. The clouds in the sky were pale gold, casting a soft light of Buddha's light. The sound of chanting rose from the void, like a paradise on earth.

Under this Buddha's light, the strange phenomena emanating from Xu Qi'an's body were immediately suppressed.

"Reciprocal support? What does that mean?" Xu Qi'an was puzzled. Although he already knew that he bore half of the nation's destiny, what did this reciprocal support mean?
"Do you remember when your soul inexplicably vanished in Yunzhou?" Shen Shu's illusion appeared in the tent, greeted Wei Yuan, and then continued, "I couldn't understand why you, who possessed such great fortune, would suddenly die and disappear. Now I finally have the answer."

"Does the master mean that Russell borrowed my luck back then?" Xu Qi'an suddenly remembered that Russell had asked him out of the blue whether he could become a first-rank martial artist, and it turned out that he was waiting for him here!

"Good fortune may be a blessing in disguise, and misfortune may be a blessing in disguise. Ning Yan, from this day forward, your cultivation will be on a smooth path. Before you reach the half-step Martial God realm, you will not encounter any obstacles."

……

"The winner takes all, you win."

In the void and ignorance, the voice of the Gu God was loud yet weak.

In the recent battle of dao, the Gu God's accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years, despite the superposition of Russell's several worlds, ultimately fell short.

Russell remained silent, and as his thoughts arose, countless rays of light began to converge in this space, condensing into a flawless body.

With each breath, countless starlight streams formed around him, swirling and transforming into tiny galaxies.

The Central Plains, the Northeast, the Western Regions, the Southern Frontier, and overseas—the entire Great Feng world, regardless of whether it is dawn, dusk, or night.

At this moment, everything was replaced by a star-studded avenue that stretched as long as the Milky Way.

Vast and mighty, like a path of starlight flowing through the Milky Way, stretching across the sky.

The heavens and earth are extraordinary, and billions of living beings look up at this moment, gazing at the seemingly insignificant yet incredibly vast being on the Starry Avenue, openly proclaiming his existence to the heavens and earth.

"Not even close."

All beings bowed their heads, hearing the sigh of this newly promoted supreme being, but did not understand his meaning.

Only in the deep sea, the god-demon named Dahuang changed his expression. A strange sense of unease arose from the bottom of his heart and quickly swept through his entire body.

Fear drove him to flee madly overseas, far from the Great Feng.

Even though his superior abilities weren't enough to affect the entire world, and even though he himself was a god or demon of superior rank, he couldn't gamble, and dared not gamble.

However, things have developed to this point, and he has no control over the situation anymore.

Before Russell, a drop of essence blood manifested, forming the shape of the Great Wilderness.

Above the Great Wilderness, a ray of starlight fell and transformed into Russell's figure.

The Great Wilderness roared, and its remaining four long horns expanded, forming a vortex that devoured everything, evolving into a black hole.

But Russell's phantom merely stretched out his hand.

"No! No! No! You broke your promise!"

The desperate screams turned into agonizing roars.

With a loud "bang," the black hole collapsed, and the desolate wilderness with the body of a sheep and the face of a human was torn to pieces.

Only four unicorns, imbued with spiritual energy, remained.

With a thought, Russell's four horns shot into the sky and fell into the blood essence, which Russell then swallowed.

"Boom!"

The sky, which was shrouded in light red and green clouds, was now filled with thick, dark clouds that stretched to the horizon, seemingly obscuring the entire land of Kyushu.

Thunder roared, and terrifying pressure descended from the sky, a heavenly tribulation brewing.

Russell closed his eyes, ignoring the fact that a single bolt of lightning could have severely injured a first-rank cultivator.

Deep within his heart, a verdant sapling was growing taller and stronger at a visible rate, eventually becoming a towering tree whose height and girth were unknown.

What is his path?

insanity?
No, this is just a tactic.

road?
This is equally undesirable. Taoist arts are nothing more than rootless duckweed to him; to attain enlightenment through them would make it difficult to reach the pinnacle.

武？
The realm of Martial God was even more elusive to him; he could not gain the recognition of heaven and earth, nor was he willing to take on the responsibility of guarding the gate.

His spiritual essence encompasses many great principles, including stars, devouring, mutation, parasitism, immortality, and rebirth.

Some of these spiritual essences came from him, some from the Immortal Tree, some from the Gu God, and some from the Great Wilderness.

Without exception, they are now integrated into his body.

Martial arts as the foundation, poison as the seed, and the Dao as the stepping stone—that is the path he should take.

"I, Russell, hereby establish the Divine Martial Path and proclaim myself the Martial Saint!"

Russell's voice resounded throughout the entire land amidst the roar of the heavenly tribulation.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Russell faced his tribulation.

Amidst the dazzling lightning, Russell stood firm, his spiritual light transforming into invisible forces that merged into the celestial trajectory in the darkness.

The void itself collapsed and shattered at this moment, stretching down for countless miles, as if the starry sky had been overturned and the heavens and earth had been turned upside down!

After a long while, the heavenly calamity subsided, and Russell returned to the mortal realm.

The Divine Martial Arts Technique has been mastered! (End of Chapter)
