Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Dongwei Island.

After many battles, Dongwei Island has long been reduced to ruins.

The ruins are covered with weeds and vines, and occasionally you can see some fragments of modern industrial waste.

The vast Dongwei Island was deserted.

The humans of Dongwei Island were destroyed, and even the secret realm was destroyed. However, the communication channel between Dongwei Island and the other world was not destroyed; it was simply blocked by the Great Wall of Time and Space, which prevented direct communication between the two sides.

For safety, Dongwei Island is monitored by satellites 24 hours a day.

At Base No. 7, opposite Dongwei Island, there is always a Level 7 Martial King on duty.

It's not just to guard the time-space passage to Dongwei Island, but also to guard the eastern sea gate of the Alliance.

Even with the Time Wall, the Alliance's eastern gate must be well guarded.

The Federation is not a reliable place, and everyone is uncertain about the effectiveness of the Time-Space Great Wall. Sufficient redundancy has been arranged for security measures in all aspects to prevent any changes.

During this period, Tian Wuji was on duty, and Chu Shenxiu also followed Tian Wuji in cultivation.

Spurred on by Gao Wu, Chu Shenxiu has made rapid progress in the past two years and is now a level six martial arts master, just one step away from level seven.

Chu Shenxiu was not satisfied with this; he was only at level seven, far behind his junior brother Gao Wu.

He knew that no matter how talented he was, he was still just a mortal. Gao Wu, however, was no longer within the realm of humanity.

Even the strongest Martial Emperor, Qin Liuhe, is probably far inferior to Gao Wu. But he still didn't give up and wanted to try to catch up.

A distant and ambitious goal made him walk an exceptionally solid path in martial arts.

Gao Wu's sudden arrival prompted Tian Wuji to accompany him, and Chu Shenxiu also wanted to go along. The three of them thus arrived at Dongwei Island together.

Tian Wuji asked cautiously, "Mr. Gao, is there a problem?"

Duke Qin publicly designated Gao Wu to succeed him as the highest council member. When Gao Wu got engaged, a formal meeting was also held to establish the legality and legitimacy of Gao Wu as the highest council member from the perspective of legal rules.

Not to mention that Gao Wu now controls the Time-Space Great Wall and possesses unparalleled martial prowess; even Tian Wuji has to be extremely cautious in front of Gao Wu.

Gao Wu said, "There's no problem. The Time-Space Great Wall keeps the other world out. If beings from the other world want to come in, they can only destroy the Time-Space Great Wall first."

Although the Great Wall of Time and Space is powerful, it is not indestructible. However, since the Great Wall is an integrated whole, it will collapse as a whole, not segment by segment.

Tian Wuji then asked, "Since there are no problems, Mr. Gao, what brings you here?"

He was quite familiar with Gao Wu and knew that although Gao Wu was decisive and tough, he disliked intrigue and trickery.

Unable to guess the other party's intentions, he simply asked directly.

"I'll go to another world to find the Scorpion King, kill this scorpion, and then the eastern sea area of ​​the Alliance will be at peace," Gao Wu said calmly.

"Huh?" Tian Wuji was shocked. Going to another world to slay a god? That's too dangerous!
He paused for a moment and then advised, "This matter is of great importance, Mr. Gao, please be cautious."

A nuclear weapon was activated deep within the ice field some time ago, and the Aurora Legion has already informed all parties of this.

The report stated directly that the nuclear bomb was extremely effective, annihilating all the invading werewolves. However, it made no mention of Wu's role in slaying the god. This was at Gao Wu's request to keep the matter of slaying the god secret.

Gao Wu felt that with so many people talking, the news of the God-Slaying would spread and be very detrimental to his future plans.

Although Tian Wuji held a very high position as the highest leader of Dongzhou, he was unaware of Gao Wu's massacre of the gods.

Gao Wu smiled and said, "The two of you are here to keep things under control. I'll be right back."

With that, Gao Wu stepped into the void, his figure vanishing without a trace in an instant.

Even Tian Wuji, a dignified seventh-level Martial King, had no idea where Gao Wu had gone. He looked at his disciple Chu Shenxiu and sighed, "Master Gao's martial arts are divine and unparalleled. He must already be a martial god among mortals!"

In public, Gao Wu has never said what level his martial arts cultivation has reached.

Generally speaking, everyone assumes that he has reached the ninth level and is the second Martial Emperor in the human world.

Last time, Duke Qin transformed into a heroic spirit and entered the Great Wall of Time and Space, entrusting all his affairs to Gao Wu.

Although Tian Wuji and the other Martial Kings didn't say it aloud, they all felt in their hearts that Gao Wu should have already surpassed level nine and entered the ineffable level ten True God level.

In Earth's material world, level nine is generally considered the limit.

Throughout history, only Qin Liuhe has reached the ninth level. No matter how talented other martial artists are, they can only ever reach the eighth level.

However, Gao Wu is too special; his path in martial arts completely defies all common sense.

It was as if he had been reincarnated as a martial god. He was advancing bravely and relentlessly without any bottlenecks, and his cultivation speed was even getting faster and faster.

After only a few days, Gao Wu had already reached the pinnacle of martial arts. Tian Wuji could only prostrate himself at the foot of this mountain of martial arts; he couldn't even see Gao Wu's back...

Whenever he thought of these things, Tian Wuji would feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

Looking at his proud disciple Chu Shenxiu, he felt sorry for his disciple.

It should have been an era in which Chu Shenxiu shone like a star, but he encountered Gao Wu, who was like a blazing sun in the sky. Chu Shenxiu didn't even have the qualifications to be a background character.

Fortunately, Chu Shenxiu was resilient and was not defeated by the cruel reality. Instead, he became more courageous after each setback.

However, the gap between Chu Shenxiu and Gao Wu is widening...

Chu Shenxiu noticed the complicated look in his master's eyes and said seriously, "He is indeed a god, and I am just a mortal, but I still want to try to catch up with him."

Tian Wuji nodded with satisfaction: "It's good that you have this fighting spirit."

He then asked with some concern, "Mr. Gao, you went to another world all by yourself. Won't you be in danger?"

Normally, the higher one's position, the less one should take risks. This isn't a matter of being afraid of death, but rather that the heavy responsibility Gao Wu bears is more important than his personal martial prowess. However, in the current situation, they can only rely on Gao Wu's martial strength; his leadership abilities are secondary.

Just as Chu Shenxiu was about to say something, a flash of light appeared before his eyes, and Gao Wu reappeared, holding a huge, ugly head in his hand.

Strictly speaking, the head was six or seven meters tall, and its face was covered with black scales, making it look ugly and ferocious.

As soon as Tian Wuji and Chu Shenxiu glanced at the head, they felt a terrifying and fierce aura pressing down on them like a mountain, making their hearts heavy, causing their powerful martial arts will to naturally retract inward, and making their blood and qi almost freeze.

The sheer power of a single head caused even Tian Wuji to change color. Chu Shenxiu's eyes also flickered, unable to conceal his shock.

Such a massive head, yet Gao Wu lifted it effortlessly in his hands. It was as if he were carrying a pineapple...

Although Tian Wuji knew that this must be the head of the Scorpion King, only a demon god could still have such ferocity after death.

The Scorpion King, who had ravaged the southeast for many years and wiped out more than a billion people from two major races, was killed by Gao Wu!
His mouth was dry and his mind was a bit muddled; he didn't know what to say for a moment.

On the contrary, Chu Shenxiu was naturally calm and collected, and he and Gao Wu studied martial arts under Hai Wuji together, which brought them even closer.

He asked, "Is this the Scorpion King?"

“Exactly, a very ugly fellow.” Gao Wu said, then held up his head to Chu Shenxiu, seeking Chu Shenxiu’s approval.

Chu Shenxiu nodded, forcing himself to endure the oppressive aura emanating from the demon god: "Indeed."

"Hahaha... I brought it back especially for you to see!" Gao Wu was quite happy to receive recognition. He had actually just been on a whim and wanted to share the joy of slaying a god with Chu Shenxiu.

With the ferocity emanating from the demon god's head gone, Chu Shenxiu calmed down completely. He actually understood Gao Wu quite well.

Having accomplished something as momentous as slaying a god, one must naturally want to boast and show off.

Today, Gao Wu has hardly anyone to talk to. Those who can boast and brag to him are actually treating him like one of their own.

Chu Shenxiu asked the question that his teacher was most concerned about on behalf of the teacher: "You went and came back in less than two minutes, that's really fast."

"Not bad, not bad." Gao Wu spoke politely and modestly, but his eyes were full of undisguised smugness. "Demons are just hiding in the divine kingdom, pretending to be gods and ghosts. They're actually quite easy to kill..."

Gao Wu boasted to Chu Shenxiu and Tian Wuji for a while before instructing them not to spread the news.

He still had to deal with the demons, such as the Flying Whale King, the Blood Lion King, and the White Eagle King, and he couldn't alert them.

After exchanging a few more polite words, Gao Wu returned to the Aurora Legion.

Scorpio King may not be very capable, but he has accumulated a great deal of merit, amounting to a total of eleven trillion merits.

It's likely that the Scorpion King enjoyed blood sacrifices, and he transferred two races from Earth to another world, accumulating countless acts of slaughter.

Gao Wu was extremely confident in annihilating the demon gods, but having accumulated enough merit, he decided to first upgrade the Xuanwu Divine Qi Mantra to the Limitless Realm.

With the Taiyi Battle Body reaching the Limitless Realm, coupled with the upgraded Heavenly Fate Sword, victory is assured even against a level twelve demon god.

Calling Xiao Song, Gao Wu began advancing his Xuanwu Divine Qi Incantation.

The familiar process was completely different for Song Mingyue. This was because the Xuanwu Divine Qi Incantation corresponded to her fundamental martial arts method, Xuanming.

When the Xuanwu Divine Qi Incantation advanced, it fully displayed the changes of Xuanwu. For Gao Wu, it was nothing special, but for Song Mingyue, it was an eye-opening experience, allowing her to see the twelve levels of the Xuanming Great Dao.

By the time the resonance ended, Song Mingyue's martial arts cultivation had broken through to level eleven, and her source power cultivation had also advanced by leaps and bounds.

Gao Wu was surprised and delighted to find that Song Mingyue had reached level eleven.

But then he realized that the Xuanwu Divine Qi Incantation of the Wuji Realm was too perfect for Xiao Song.

Moreover, the Limitless Realm Divine Mantra not only represents the twelfth level of power, but also perfectly embodies it. This is extremely important to Xiao Song.

Someone pointed out the way forward, provided detailed instructions, and even drove you the whole way, which saved you countless troubles.

It's only natural that Xiao Song was able to advance to level eleven. If Xiao Song's aptitude were even better, advancing to level twelve would also be normal.

For Gao Wu, the advancement of the Xuanwu Divine Qi Mantra to the Wuji level filled the last gap, making his Taiyi Battle Body into the Taiyi Wuji Battle Body.

The Divine Qi Mantra of the Limitless Realm also condenses into supernatural power: Divine Qi.

Simply put, it means his divine power is boundless and unbreakable. Only then did his body surpass the Limitless Divine Armor in every aspect.

The Taiyi Wuji Battle Body fully utilizes the advantages of its various attributes, increasing its overall strength by at least five times.

Many things that were previously impossible are no longer a challenge for him.

Gao Wu went to the Qilin King's Divine Kingdom, where he used the Earth Fire Furnace to extract energy from the entire plane and convert it into divine fire, then poured all the divine objects he had collected into it.

In just a few days, he refined that ball of Nine-Turn True Gold. This was because his cultivation level had reached a point where he naturally knew the name and origin of the substance, and how to use it.

This is a divine artifact far superior to the Star Guardian level. It was left behind by the Heavenly Court many eras ago, and it just so happens to have fallen into the hands of the Qilin King.

Amidst the raging flames, the Limitless Divine Armor was plunged into the Earth Fire Furnace, merging with the dark golden light...

Gao Wu watched as the Wuji Divine Armor, which had melted and then slowly reformed, did not feel much excitement.

The fact that the Heavenly Court possesses a furnace of earthly fire and produces nine-times-refined gold speaks volumes about its power.

The Heavenly Court was forced to shrink into a ball after being defeated, which shows that there are even more powerful forces in the myriad realms.

He was standing at the peak of level twelve. Demon gods like the White Eagle King were no longer worth his attention, but there were many more and more powerful gods.

Although the myriad realms are vast and boundless, the ultimate goal of life is the same for all. As long as he continues forward, he will inevitably encounter even more powerful gods…

Can he stop moving forward? (End of Chapter)
