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

On the ancient star Xuanheng, Gu Changjin was sitting in the ancestral hall of the Yun family, preparing to continue deducing the matter of the forbidden zone of life, when he suddenly raised his head.

Beyond the ancient star, powerful auras were rapidly approaching.

Quasi-Emperor Level 7, Quasi-Emperor Level 8, and even two Quasi-Emperors Level 9.

Looking across the entire universe, such a force is enough to sweep away the vast majority of inhabited star systems.

Moreover, these auras also concealed a few faint traces of imperial might.

Clearly, someone was carrying an imperial weapon, or some legacy left behind by the Great Emperor, just like the Great Emperor's decree from the Tai Xuan Divine Sect before.

"Just finished killing one batch, and another one is coming?"

A hint of amusement flashed in Gu Changjin's eyes.

If these people are planning to join forces to attack him, they shouldn't just send a few quasi-emperors.

It's even less likely that they would reveal their presence completely, so they're probably here to deliver something.

Gu Changjin did not get up, but sat quietly in the ancestral hall, waiting for these people to continue their performance.

Before long, more than a dozen figures stopped outside Xuanheng Ancient Star.

They did not directly step onto the ancient star, nor did they probe the darkness that enveloped the heavens and earth with their divine senses.

The leading patriarch of the Starry Sacred Land straightened his robes and then bowed deeply to the Xuanheng Ancient Star.

"The Sacred Land of Stars, accompanied by envoys from various human lineages."

"Congratulations to the Great Emperor on attaining enlightenment."

The sound reached Gu Xing, but there was no response.

Everyone's hearts tightened.

The Supreme Ancestor of the Starry Sky Sacred Land dared not stop and continued:

"The emergence of these three supreme beings from the forbidden zones has allowed them to devour ancient life-bearing stars along their path, with the aim of unleashing a dark upheaval."

"Fortunately, the Great Emperor intervened, killing three Supreme Beings and intimidating all the forbidden zones."

"From this day forward, our human race will have a great emperor to govern the world, and billions of living beings will no longer need to worry about the darkness and turmoil."

"This is a blessing for humanity."

"This is also a blessing for all living beings in the universe!"

He spoke with great righteousness, and the envoys from the imperial clans, holy lands, and supreme lineages behind him all bowed.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"May the Great Emperor suppress all paths and be immortal for eternity!"

Congratulations echoed through the ancient star Xuanheng.

Gu Changjin almost laughed when he heard this.

A blessing for humanity?

A blessing for all living beings in the universe?

He just swallowed up the ancient star Xuanheng, leaving not a single living person behind.

These guys, however, can act as if nothing happened.

They even repeatedly praised the fact that they had killed three supreme beings.

No wonder he was able to sit at the highest point of a powerful force.

This ability to lie through one's teeth.

It's definitely not bad.

"Are you done talking?"

Gu Changjin's voice came from the depths of the ancient star.

Everyone's expressions tightened slightly.

The Supreme Ancestor of the Starry Sky Holy Land hurriedly said:

"We have come here not only to congratulate the Emperor on his attainment of enlightenment, but also to offer our congratulatory gifts on behalf of various forces of the human race."

He raised his hand, and a white jade altar flew out from his sleeve.

On the altar, there were two things.

The first item is a half-finished ancient scripture.

The scriptures are like gold but not gold, like jade but not jade.

There were no words on the surface, only wisps of aura far exceeding ordinary imperial laws flowing slowly.

The second item was a silver light spot enveloped by countless restrictions.

There was no spiritual power or Dao aura inside the light spot.

Yet it is subtly connected to a place that does not belong to this vast universe.

The Supreme Ancestor of Xingyan Holy Land lowered his head.

"The Great Emperor".

"This half of the ancient scripture is suspected to have come from the legendary immortal realm."

"The cultivation methods recorded within it surpass those of ordinary imperial scriptures."

"As for the coordinates next to it."

"This points to an ancient rift related to the path to immortality."

"These two items are our gifts to the Emperor."

Inside the ancestral hall, Gu Changjin finally showed some interest.

Ancient scriptures of the Immortal Realm, coordinates of the path to immortality.

This group of people really went to great lengths to persuade him to leave Xuanheng Ancient Star.

As Gu Changjin's thoughts changed.

The darkness that shrouded the ancient star suddenly spread outwards.

The respect on the face of the Supreme Ancestor of Xingyan Holy Land froze instantly.

They clearly saw that the darkness had only just begun to spread.

But in the next instant, the darkness stopped right in front of everyone.

It was less than half an inch from the tip of the nose.

It was cold, deathly still, and filled with an indescribable hunger.

Everyone tensed up at the same time.

Some people subconsciously wanted to activate the imperial weapon.

But before he could make a move...

In the depths of darkness, pairs of eyes slowly opened.

There were quasi-emperors, Yun family experts who had been devoured, and three figures far more terrifying than anyone else present.

The three supreme beings of the Immortal Mountain!

They had lost their minds, their bodies completely solidified from darkness.

But the oppressive aura of the former emperor did not dissipate.

At this moment, the three supreme Dao figures stood in the depths of darkness, silently watching everyone.

It seemed that if Gu Changjin gave the slightest thought, they would rush out and tear all the messengers to shreds.

"this……"

A cold sweat beaded on the forehead of an imperial ancestor.

How much more is hidden in the darkness?

After the three supreme beings died, they actually became puppets in the hands of this great emperor.

Gu Changjin did not offer an explanation.

The darkness rolls forward.

The half of the immortal scripture and the silver coordinates on the white jade altar disappeared at the same time.

Followed by.

The darkness receded back into the ancient star of Xuanheng.

From beginning to end.

No messengers were harmed.

However, no one felt any sense of relief.

Just a moment ago.

Their lives were now in Gu Changjin's hands.

"The stuff is good."

Gu Changjin's voice rang out again.

"Get lost."

The word "get lost".

The expressions of the powerful figures at the very top of the universe changed slightly, but none of them dared to show any dissatisfaction.

The Supreme Ancestor of Xingyan Holy Land bowed once more.

"We will take our leave."

After saying that, the dozen or so people slowly retreated.

Only after completely leaving the star field where Xuanheng Ancient Star was located did everyone speed up.

In just a moment, it disappeared completely.

Inside the Yun family ancestral hall, half of the immortal scripture floated in front of Gu Changjin.

The Dao Fruit trembled slightly, and the restrictions on the surface of the ancient scripture quickly disintegrated.

An incomplete but clearly superior cultivation insight slowly flowed into Gu Changjin's sea of ​​consciousness.

The scriptures are indeed true, and their source does not belong to this universe.

According to scattered records in the scriptures, above the Great Emperor, there is a path that truly transcends the limitations of lifespan.

Immortal! A true immortal, not a half-finished immortal in the mortal world.

Unfortunately, only half of the ancient scripture was available; the most crucial breakthrough part was cut off.

Gu Changjin looked at the silver light spot again.

A light tap with your fingertip.

The layers of restrictions that were wrapped around it began to loosen.

A blurry coordinate appeared in my perception.

It is located at the edge of the universe, and has even exceeded the scope that the normal rules of heaven and earth can cover.

At the location of the coordinates, there is an ancient rift that was forcibly blasted open.

Behind the rift, an extremely rich aura of immortality lingered.

"Half of the Immortal Scripture, plus a rift on the path to immortality."

Gu Changjin smiled.

"It's truly a congratulatory gift that's hard to refuse."

But the more this is the case, the more it indicates that there is a problem with these coordinates.

The path above the Great Emperor.

Scriptures that may originate from the celestial realm.

Why don't the major imperial clans and supreme lineages explore such things themselves?

Instead, they handed it to him willingly?

The answer isn't hard to guess.

That rift is extremely dangerous. Once you enter, you may not be able to return to this vast universe in a short time, and you may even die inside.

Knowing they couldn't confront him directly, these people simply put their opportunities out in the open.

Going there might mean death.

If you don't go, you can only watch helplessly as a path that seems to lead to a fairyland slips through your fingers.

This is an open conspiracy.

Moreover, it accurately grasped the most difficult desire for an invincible emperor to suppress.

Become stronger, live longer, become an immortal!

In the eyes of those people.

Gu Changjin is so powerful that he doesn't even put the three supreme beings of the forbidden zone in his eyes.

Even if you know the coordinates are wrong.

Most of them, out of their own strength and pride, would personally go in and take a look.

As long as Gu Changjin enters the rift.

Whether trapped, severely injured, or perished.

They have all achieved their goals.

"That's a good calculation."

Gu Changjin's smile grew even wider.

Unfortunately, these people only realized that he wanted to become stronger, but they didn't know his true purpose.

Gu Changjin never forgot why he entered this world of other people and me.

May my cultivation in this life far surpass that of my original self.

Upon returning, it will propel the original body to a higher realm.

At the same time, they will try their best to change the fate of the world and plunder more of the Dao Yuan and Dao Principles.

That's the most important thing.

As for the Heavenly Emperor Seal, Gu Changjin had already planned to discard it.

If one can use this opportunity to completely shed the identity of the Great Emperor, transforming from a contemporary emperor who protects all living beings into the lord of a forbidden zone.

This in itself is a tremendous change to the fate of the world.

At that time, the source that the Dao Fruit can plunder will only be more.

Moreover, Gu Changjin recalled the part of the future he had seen before he descended into this world.

Centuries later, a mortal immortal in extremely poor condition returned.

Where exactly did they return from?

Could it be hidden behind the crack in this path to immortality?

Gu Changjin looked at the silver coordinates in his hand, his eyes gradually becoming deep and unfathomable.

Going in now might indeed be dangerous.

But what if it wasn't a great emperor who went in?

Or is he a mortal immortal in his prime?

At that time, those immortals in poor condition in the rift will surely look much better.

"I will accept this gift."

"I will also take this path."

Gu Changjin put away half of the immortal scripture and the silver coordinates.

Then he slowly raised his head.

His gaze seemed to pierce through the ancient star Xuanheng and sweep across the entire universe.

Imperial clans, sacred lands, forbidden zones of life, and those ancient beings slumbering within the divine source, yet to be born.

He is still a long way from becoming a mortal immortal.

But it's okay.

There is still plenty of resources in this vast universe.

Gu Changjin's eyes gradually turned cold, and the darkness behind him became even deeper at this moment.

"But before that... we need to eat our fill first."
