Just as the old patriarch forced me to my death, I achieved the unity of Dao and fruition.

Chapter 245 The Seven Saints Return to Their Positions, Gu Changjin Aims to Unite with the Heavenly

A shocking piece of bad news spread throughout the entire human territory in less than half a day.

The capital of the Great Liang Kingdom... is gone.

That magnificent city, with a permanent population of over ten million and surrounded by eight city-states with populations exceeding one million, and regarded by countless people as the last prosperous place for humanity, was turned into a sea of blood overnight.

The person who personally carried out all of this was not some demon or great saint, but the Grand Preceptor of the Great Liang Dynasty.

That national advisor who suppressed the human race for hundreds of years and was revered by countless martial artists as the number one person in the world!

Millions of lives, eight garrison cities, and the life force and souls of countless warriors in the capital were all drained by a blood array that covered the heavens and the earth.

The blood and energy of tens of millions of people were finally poured into the body of a demon that had been prepared beforehand.

And so... the seventh demon was born, known as the Blood Moon Great Sage!

When the crimson blood moon rose above the ruins of the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom, the whole world heard a roar.

It wasn't just heard by the ears, but sensed by all living beings from the deepest part of their souls.

Boom! Boom!

It was as if a shackle that had lasted for countless years had finally been shattered completely.

The seven destined demon saints have all returned to their positions, and heaven and earth have been elevated!

In that instant, mountains rose higher, rivers widened, and the originally thin energy between heaven and earth began to thicken at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Many demons raised their heads, and even the lesser demons of the first or second tier felt their bodies become much lighter at that moment.

The barrier that I couldn't break through no matter how hard I cultivated before suddenly loosened.

An old demon hiding deep in the mountains, after inhaling and exhaling a few breaths of the energy of heaven and earth, caused its demonic blood, which had been dormant for decades, to boil again.

"A breakthrough?"

The old demon stared blankly at its claws. It had been stuck at the fourth rank for over thirty years, but today, without doing anything, it had broken through to the fifth rank.

Similar things are happening all over the world.

The power of demons has officially surpassed that of the human race!

The protagonists of heaven and earth have changed!

Compared to the demons, the humans felt the opposite.

An old martial artist who was trying to break through to the ninth level had already condensed his blood and qi to the extreme.

next moment.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck the sky without warning.

The old martial artist coughed up blood on the spot.

Decades of hard work almost went up in one fell swoop.

He looked up blankly, his face showing no anger, only deathly paleness and despair.

Because he realized that heaven and earth no longer favored them.

In the past, human warriors only needed to break through their own physical barriers to achieve a breakthrough.

But things will be different in the future. If the ninth rank is like this, then True Martial Arts will only become more difficult.

The Way of Heaven began to place more obstacles on humankind.

But for demons, things will only get better and better.

In a refugee camp.

Several Zhenwu elders looked up at the same time.

Feeling the changes in the rules of heaven and earth.

No one spoke for a long time.

Finally, one of them chuckled softly, a laugh tinged with bitterness.

"Demons shall rise! Humanity shall perish!"

"It turns out it really wasn't just a rumor."

Another person clenched their fist.

"What have we been fighting over all these years?"

Over the years, they have been fighting for territory, sects, and resources.

But now even the entire tribe is almost gone.

Whom can they leave behind all that they've protected?

What was even more unacceptable to everyone was the Grand Preceptor of Liang.

"Why? He's the Imperial Advisor of the Great Liang Dynasty!"

"Yes! The Imperial Advisor who has protected the Great Liang for hundreds of years!"

Why did he have to sacrifice the entire capital?

Some people didn't understand, some were angry, and many more simply remained silent.

But soon, they no longer needed anyone to explain themselves.

Because the world has changed once again.

Above the ruins of the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom, the Blood Moon Great Sage soared into the sky.

Even higher up, a dark, demonic aura had already risen into the sky from the Imperial Preceptor's tower.

The black mist grew larger and larger, and finally it transformed into a real black moon!

The black moon hung in the sky, making even the newly risen sun seem a bit dimmer.

For the first time, the voice of the Grand Preceptor of Liang was heard throughout the world without any concealment.

"A centuries-long plan! Hahahaha!!"

"We've finally waited for this day!"

His voice was filled with barely suppressed laughter.

At the same time, from seven directions, seven demonic sages roared to the sky in unison.

boom!

Their bodies gradually became ethereal, eventually each coalescing into a massive demon heart.

The seven demonic hearts, like seven dark stars, circled around the black moon.

The eight forces intertwined and headed straight for the highest point in the sky.

There, a great sun and a bright moon appeared simultaneously.

After the sun and moon, countless threads of rules crisscrossed.

That is the most direct form of the Heavenly Dao of this world that can be seen by all living beings.

The sun and moon are heaven, the sun and moon are the Tao.

And now, the Black Moon is approaching them.

Beyond this world, an unimaginably enormous, pitch-black demonic figure slowly opened its eyes.

The Demon Lord's true form moved.

The power of a True Immortal at its limit, separated by the world barrier, has begun to resonate with the black moon within.

They cooperated from within and without.

As long as the dark moon covers the sun and moon.

The external demon lord can then take the opportunity to pour his own essence into this world.

At that time, this world that has just completed its upgrade will completely become his.

It seems that Heaven has finally sensed the danger.

The sun and moon trembled violently, and countless chains of rules appeared from the void, frantically binding the black moon and the seven demon hearts.

But now is precisely the most crucial time for the world to upgrade.

The old rules have been broken, and the new rules have not yet been fully stabilized.

It's like a person who has just broken through a level and is at their weakest moment.

Heaven wanted to resist, but it was too late.

Rumble! Rumble!

The world began to tremble, and blood rained down from the sky, as if heaven and earth were weeping.

At that moment, something terrible happened.

Humans are terrified, and so are demons.

A demon that had just broken through its cultivation level due to the favor of heaven and earth suddenly looked up at the sky.

It knew nothing about the Heavenly Demon Realm or the Demon Lord.

Yet, deep within his soul, an overwhelming sense of sorrow instinctively arose.

"Is...is our world going to disappear?"

The human warriors not far away also looked up.

The two were clearly mortal enemies just a moment ago.

But at that moment, no one made a move.

Because in the face of an even greater disaster.

For the first time, they shared the same identity.

The living beings of this world.

My home is about to be taken away by someone else.

Once the foundation of the world is swallowed up.

What will happen next?

no one knows.

Perhaps the world will dry up, perhaps all living beings will become food for the demons, and perhaps this world will eventually die out completely.

This sorrow, originating from heaven and earth themselves, touches every living being.

"It's over..."

A white-haired man stood amidst the ruins, letting the blood rain down on his face.

"This time, it's really over."

The Black Moon is getting closer and closer to the Sun and Moon, and the seven demon hearts are spinning wildly.

The Demon Lord's true form, located outside the world, has even extended a hand.

Just one last bit more.

a little.

One more thing!

The Grand Preceptor of Liang laughed louder and louder.

"This world! Will ultimately belong to me!"

At that very moment, the eastern sky suddenly brightened.

It is not the great sun that is being eroded by the black moon.

It is another sun.

A golden sun, formed from the vast fortune of the human race, the boundless wishes of all living beings, and the countless merits accumulated over three months of demon-slaying.

It rises slowly from the horizon.

The blood rain stopped for a moment.

All living things in heaven and earth raised their heads at the same time.

In the rising sun, a young figure gradually became clear.

Gu Changjin.

He stepped into the sky, and his majestic voice echoed throughout the four seas and eight wastelands.

"I am Gu Changjin."

"Born into this world."

"Growing up in this world."

"Bearing the hopes of all humankind, and nourished by the mountains and rivers of this realm."

"Now I see that heaven and earth are in peril."

Gu Changjin looked up and stared directly at the black moon that was eroding the sun and moon, then slowly opened his arms.
