Slaughter Until the Seas Run Rampant for Billions of Miles, as a Warning to All — The Heavens Are About to Change
Slaughter Until the Seas Run Rampant for Billions of Miles, as a Warning to All — The Heavens Are About to Change
“Shixiong, hurry and go!”
“Don’t worry about me!”
At this moment, Heavenly Monarch Ziyang also realized Gu Changge’s intentions, and a sense of dread couldn’t help but rise in his heart.
He didn’t want to drag Qin Wuya down with him.
Moreover, if Qin Wuya continued to stay here and his tracks were noticed, he would never be able to clear himself of suspicion again.
“Ziyang-shidi!”
Qin Wuya gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with fury and hatred as he stared at Gu Changge, incomparably conflicted and struggling.
He also knew that at this point, he could no longer remain here.
“It’s here! Heavenly Monarch Ziyang was actually hiding in this place!”
“It’s him! The one who went to assassinate Saintess Ziyan that night!”
“He really is in league with Heavenly Monarch Ziyang! Not good, he’s trying to flee — stop him quickly... pu...”
Soon enough, among the cultivators rushing over, someone recognized Qin Wuya at a glance amid their shock.
He was precisely the masked man from that night, and they immediately became incomparably shocked and furious.
Seeing Qin Wuya turn to flee, they all roared in anger and charged forward, bringing out various magical artifacts to intercept him.
However, Qin Wuya merely waved his hand casually, his sleeves billowing, and from within that lustrous white scale, a terrifying radiance emerged, blasting them all away.
Yet before these blasted-away cultivators could even react, they were struck by some inexplicable force, exploding in midair, their flesh and blood collapsing, body and soul utterly annihilated.
This scene immediately left the cultivators arriving behind them shocked and chilled to the bone, and then provoked even greater fury — killing intent surged, righteous indignation filling their chests.
“Damn it! Even at a time like this, he still wants to commit murder — he simply doesn’t know life from death!”
Everyone was enraged, all unleashing their divine abilities. Some even brought out Transcendent grade weapons to intercept the fleeing Qin Wuya.
“Gu Changge!”
“What a vicious and poisonous mind you have!”
At this moment, Qin Wuya was also incomparably furious, his eyes full of hatred. He had only blasted those cultivators away — he had never intended to kill them.
That scene just now had been entirely Gu Changge’s doing in secret, its purpose being to frame him!
Even at a time like this, he still hadn’t forgotten to put him to death, leaving him no chance to turn things around.
However, Gu Changge acted as if he hadn’t heard a word, continuing his assault on Heavenly Monarch Ziyang.
Qin Wuya glared at him hatefully, not daring to linger. His figure blurred, a passage appeared before his eyes, and he swiftly departed.
At this moment, he could only hope that Purple Mansion’s experts would arrive as quickly as possible — otherwise, Heavenly Monarch Ziyang was certain to meet a grim fate today.
“Looks like we arrived a step too late — that man has already fled.”
“Heavenly Monarch Ziyang is still here, but given his current condition, it seems he won’t last much longer.”
“Purple Mansion will not allow Heavenly Monarch Ziyang to die here...”
Above the firmament, several figures appeared. The King of Six Crowns, the Phoenix Lady, Ying Yu, and the others arrived, just in time to witness Qin Wuya letting out a furious roar before swiftly fleeing.
Those words of lament came from Ying Yu’s mouth.
Her gaze was incomparably complicated as she looked into the distance.
There, Heavenly Monarch Ziyang was covered in blood, suppressed to the ground by Gu Changge, unable to move — without the slightest trace of the high-spirited vigor they usually saw in him.
“What a pity. At a time like this, even your shixiong won’t care about you anymore.”
Gu Changge smiled faintly, looking down at Heavenly Monarch Ziyang beneath his foot. Though he was smiling, there was not the slightest ripple in his eyes — cold and indifferent.
“Gu Changge, one day the heavens will come to collect you...”
Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s face was resolute as he coughed up another mouthful of blood.
Knowing full well that at this point, any words of begging for mercy would be utterly useless, he instead appeared incomparably unyielding.
“I hope that day truly comes. Though I wonder — when the time comes, will the heavens collect me, or will I collect them?”
Gu Changge laughed breezily, and his foot stomped down once more, causing Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s bones to cave in, every last one shattering.
Boom!!
But at this moment, at the center of Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s brow, that perpetually closed purple marking suddenly shone with a strange radiance.
Within it was his life-preserving treasure.
Ordinarily it could not be activated at all — only when his life was in mortal danger would it reveal itself.
Purple light glimmered; it looked more like a seed, floating and sinking in the void, entwined with purple divine mist.
“A Chaos Purple Qi Seed?”
Gu Changge raised an eyebrow slightly, recognizing the object at first glance.
A renowned divine artifact of Purple Mansion. It was said that when Purple Mansion was founded, that founding ancestor had found it in a mysterious land, and it was inextricably tied to Purple Mansion’s very origins.
Profound beyond measure, its wondrous uses indescribable.
For this thing to actually be in Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s hands — no wonder Purple Mansion valued and cherished him so greatly.
However, facing this suddenly appearing Chaos Purple Qi Seed, Gu Changge’s methods remained as simple as ever. His great hand swept across the sky, numerous rules circulating within it, as if transforming into a Palm World capable of sealing and suppressing all eight directions.
The void froze. The Chaos Purple Qi Seed carried terrifying might, emitting a sound as vast and heavy as a world itself, rumbling as it crushed forward.
This power was incomparably grand — even a Perfect Prodigy would pale and tremble before it.
Yet under this single palm of Gu Changge’s, the void around the Chaos Purple Qi Seed instantly collapsed. The Great Dao rumbled, rules collided, producing sounds like worlds crashing into one another.
Deafening, it caused the many cultivators who had rushed over nearby to blanch in terror, unable to withstand it, hastily retreating into the distance.
“Purple Mansion’s Chaos Purple Qi Seed is actually on Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s person. It seems this is inseparably linked to that Foreseeing Eye divine ability of his...”
The King of Six Crowns’ expression shifted slightly as he noted the terror of this power. Before this, he hadn’t paid Heavenly Monarch Ziyang much mind.
But if he were to fight him, he would inevitably suffer a great loss from this.
And in the next moment, before the shocked eyes of all the cultivators, Gu Changge’s great hand closed, as if chaos and the myriad Daos emerged within his palm, billions of rays of radiance issuing sounds like heavenly drums striking one another.
The Chaos Purple Qi Seed was forcibly trapped within, and in the end, he forcibly took it away.
Witnessing this scene, Heavenly Monarch Ziyang once again spat out a mouthful of blood, incomparably furious and unwilling.
“Even the Chaos Purple Qi Seed can’t contend against Young Master Changge...”
“Isn’t this too strong? Even those experts of the older generation probably aren’t a match for Young Master Changge anymore!”
The many young prodigies were incomparably shaken, sensing that matchless, unsurpassable strength.
“After waiting this long, they should be arriving...”
“This is the standard script, after all.”
At this moment, Gu Changge seemed to sense something. A strange glint flickered in his eyes as he looked toward the horizon, the corners of his mouth carrying a faint, indistinct smile.
He had indeed waited a long time for this moment.
“Stop!”
The next instant, accompanied by a furious shout, a mighty and vast pressure suddenly descended from the firmament above. Purple qi surged forth, stretching endlessly.
It was as if some supremely powerful existence was about to descend upon this place.
Everyone looked over in shock, only to see a Space Tunnel being torn open by supreme magical power.
Within it, figure after figure appeared, each carrying powerful pressure, emerging into the void.
An old man wearing a Grand Luo Daoist Robe, his countenance cold and stern, stepped out from within.
His expression was icy as he stared fixedly at Gu Changge, demanding he stop.
At the same time, numerous Purple Mansion experts appeared behind him, walking out of the Space Tunnel, their faces grim as they arrived at this place.
These people were all the mainstays of Purple Mansion — the weakest among them was at the Sacred Lord Realm, and the leader among them carried the pressure of the Sacred Emperor Realm.
Upon receiving the distress message Heavenly Monarch Ziyang had sent back, they had rushed over without stopping, even paying a great price to open a Space Tunnel, descending upon this place across an immeasurably vast distance.
The instant Purple Mansion’s host of experts appeared, every prodigy present was forced into a drastic change of expression, deeply unsettled.
There was a dread that came from the depths of their souls; their spirits trembled, and they couldn’t help but want to prostrate themselves on the ground.
A Sacred Emperor of Purple Mansion had appeared!
“Shishu, save me!”
Seeing this person, Heavenly Monarch Ziyang also revealed joy and hope.
Though his body was incomparably weak, he still shouted loudly. Having held on for so long, he had finally seen reinforcements arrive.
“A Sacred Emperor of Purple Mansion...”
Gu Xianer, who had been watching Gu Changge’s battle with Heavenly Monarch Ziyang and Qin Wuya all along, also shifted in expression, glancing at Gu Changge with worry.
At this point, with a Purple Mansion Sacred Emperor descending, it meant the situation had undergone a tremendous shift, developing toward an unimaginable direction.
Before this, it had been a struggle among peers, and the older generation dared not easily interfere.
But today, Purple Mansion’s experts had rushed to this place before the eyes of all cultivators and prodigies, to order Gu Changge to stop.
This undoubtedly shattered the previously maintained balance.
She knew very well that, given Gu Changge’s character, either he had long anticipated all of this, or he would be enraged by Purple Mansion’s experts and directly mobilize the backing behind him.
But no matter which it was, today’s matter would not end peacefully — and even this Purple Mansion Sacred Emperor before them would meet no good end.
When that time came, it would not be something a simple skirmish could resolve.
An Immortal War between Cults of Immortality — a war of the undying — was simply beyond words to describe!
They would not rest until they had slaughtered until the seas ran rampant for billions of miles, until all of the Nine Heavens and Ten Realms trembled in fear!
“It seems your sect does care about you quite a bit — they even dispatched a Sacred Emperor. But a pity — can this really save you?”
“I said it long ago: if Purple Mansion dares to stand in my way, then I will destroy it along with everything else.”
At this moment, however, Gu Changge still glanced at Heavenly Monarch Ziyang, a smile on his face.
Yet the words he spoke couldn’t help but chill Heavenly Monarch Ziyang to the bone, giving rise to a terrifying coldness.
He knew that Gu Changge would absolutely not let him off easily.
But to destroy Purple Mansion!
What outrageous boasting!
Meanwhile, the old man above the firmament, noticing Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s miserable state and hearing Gu Changge’s words that disregarded him, found his expression growing even uglier.
Were it not for his wariness of Gu Changge’s status, he would have already struck, directly teaching Gu Changge a lesson.
He couldn’t help but roar in fury, his face ashen:
“Damn you, Gu Changge. For the so-called number one of the younger generation, your methods are truly vicious — showing no regard for your shared status as disciples of the True Immortal Academy, striking Ziyang with such a ruthless hand.”
“What difference is there now between what you’ve done and the Successor of Demonic Arts?”
As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused an uproar, making the expressions of many prodigies shift slightly, incomparably shocked. They felt that with Purple Mansion acting this way, they were determined to shelter Heavenly Monarch Ziyang today no matter what.
Anyone with eyes could see that Heavenly Monarch Ziyang had colluded with the Successor of Demonic Arts — not only had he harmed disciples of the True Immortal Academy, he had now even planned to send his so-called shixiong to secretly murder Purple Mansion’s Saintess, Liu Ziyan.
Despite such conduct, Purple Mansion still pretended not to see, insisting on opposing all the orthodoxies and powers.
Wasn’t this courting death?
Could it be that Purple Mansion truly had such audacity and boldness, to make an enemy of everyone?
“What I’ve done is no different from the Successor of Demonic Arts?”
“Then may I ask, qianbei — what is Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s conduct no different from? And what is Purple Mansion’s conduct no different from?”
“This junior acted to enforce justice on heaven’s behalf — could that somehow be wrong?”
Hearing this, Gu Changge instead raised his head to look at the old man in the void, the corners of his mouth carrying a breezy calm.
As soon as these words came out, they immediately triggered a sensation. The many young prodigies all turned to look at that Purple Mansion Sacred Emperor in unison, carrying derision and mockery.
What Gu Changge said was almost exactly what they were thinking!
“A glib tongue spouting nonsense.”
“How could Ziyang possibly have anything to do with the Successor of Demonic Arts? All of this is the Successor of Demonic Arts framing him. You, on the other hand, you little whelp — without a shred of evidence, you invert right and wrong and make fools of everyone.”
“Do you truly think that with the Longevity Gu Family behind you, no one dares to discipline you?”
The old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe hadn’t expected Gu Changge to say such a thing. His expression grew ever darker, ashen with rage, and he couldn’t help but retort with a shout.
“Oh? In that case, there’s nothing more to say. It seems Purple Mansion is bent on making an enemy of me.” Gu Changge said no more, still smiling faintly, making it difficult for anyone to guess his thoughts.
“Make an enemy of you? Little whelp, you overestimate yourself...”
The old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe sneered, seemingly laughing at Gu Changge’s self-importance and overestimation of his own abilities. However, in the next moment, his words were cut off by Gu Changge.
They saw Gu Changge’s expression calm and rippleless as he directly stomped down with one foot.
Heavenly Monarch Ziyang immediately let out a muffled groan as his body burst apart, blood splattering.
Then, Gu Changge reached out his hand, and before Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s terrified, despairing gaze, moved to dig out that Chaos Dao Bone — the one gushing with purple mist, incomparably profound.
Overwhelmingly domineering!
“Stop!”
The old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe was enraged, his eyes nearly splitting with fury.
He hadn’t expected Gu Changge to be so ruthless and decisive — before everyone’s eyes, actually moving to dig out Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s Chaos Dao Bone.
He struck directly. His sleeves billowed, great winds howled, as if transforming into heaven and earth itself, capable of containing all things.
The methods of a Sacred Emperor — divine might vast and unfathomable — seeking to swallow Gu Changge into it.
Boom!
The next moment, the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers revived, bursting forth with Sacred Emperor Realm pressure, seeking to overturn mountains and rivers across billions of miles.
But in the end, it was no match for a true Sacred Emperor. The old man slapped down with one palm, and it was instantly sent flying, smashing into the ground.
With a dong!
The land within nearly ten thousand miles all around was covered in terrifying cracks, a scene of utter devastation, incomparably horrifying.
Everyone watched this scene in shock. Even the King of Six Crowns and the others furrowed their brows tightly, not daring to approach, fearing they would be caught in the aftermath.
A Sacred Emperor’s wrath!
Moreover, this Purple Mansion Sacred Emperor’s cultivation was no ordinary Sacred Emperor’s.
He was at least an existence of the third or fourth heaven of the Sacred Emperor Realm, far surpassing the others of this realm!
However, what left everyone shocked and horrified was that, facing such a strike, Gu Changge’s expression still didn’t change much — as if he had long anticipated it.
He was still making his move against Heavenly Monarch Ziyang, determined to dig out that Chaos Dao Bone of his.
“Little whelp, I told you to stop!”
The old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe’s eyes nearly split with rage. He hadn’t expected Gu Changge to simply not take his words to heart at all.
Such a contemptuous attitude made him nearly mad with hatred. In all his years as a Sacred Emperor, no one had ever dared to show him such disrespect.
Especially not some junior!
The rest of Purple Mansion’s experts also had extremely ugly expressions. Their clan’s Sacred Emperor being ignored like this — who could bear it?
At once, a middle-aged man stepped forward, tall and martial in bearing, purple qi contained within his gaze. His cultivation was at the peak of the Sacred Lord Realm, only a single step away from the Sacred King Realm.
His face was hostile as he stared fixedly at Gu Changge, saying, “Laozu, let me teach this little whelp a lesson on behalf of the Longevity Gu Family. Let him understand the hierarchy of senior and junior, teach him some manners. So what if a young prodigy’s ambition soars higher than the heavens? Whether he can even reach the Sacred Emperor Realm remains to be seen.”
They had rushed over in great haste and hadn’t yet heard the earlier rumors — they didn’t know that Gu Changge had displayed power surpassing the Sacred Lord Realm.
Now, seeing their own successor bullied into such a state, their hearts were filled with fury.
Especially with Gu Changge’s nonchalant attitude.
Even if his intervention would invite criticism, even if he’d be seen as the strong bullying the weak — at a time like this, who could care about all that?
After all, they had already offended Gu Changge — who still cared about such things?
“Be sure not to kill him, or I won’t be able to answer to the Longevity Gu Family.”
The old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe nodded at these words, though his heart was in truth deeply stifled. After all, Purple Mansion’s successor was now in such a miserable state, even his Chaos Dao Bone being dug out.
As the laozu of the lineage behind Heavenly Monarch Ziyang, how could he not be furious?
However, what struck him as strange was that the gazes of the many surrounding prodigies held, amid their shock, a certain amusement and derision.
“Well, it really does follow that brain-dead script...”
“Even courting death isn’t usually done like this.”
Gu Changge hadn’t expected that at this moment, a Purple Mansion expert would actually step forward to reclaim face for Heavenly Monarch Ziyang — and in such a brain-dead manner, no less.
For a moment, he was even stunned. But quickly, Gu Changge’s expression turned cold, and he directly thrust out a palm — just like before, without any flourish.
With a boom!
Terrifying fluctuations spread out, as if the firmament itself had suddenly exploded.
The middle-aged man’s face filled with horror. Before he could even react in his shock, he was struck by this palm, and half his body instantly collapsed and burst apart.
Had the old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe not reacted swiftly and moved to shield him,
that single palm would have taken his life.
The rest of Purple Mansion’s experts also watched this scene in horror, cold sweat breaking out across their backs — they had nearly been unable to hold back from striking just now.
“Sacred Lord Realm cultivation...”
The old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe was also stunned, staring fixedly at Gu Changge, his gaze growing ever colder. He hadn’t expected his cultivation to be such.
No wonder Heavenly Monarch Ziyang had no power to resist whatsoever in his hands.
But today’s matter left no room for retreat. Even if it meant offending the Longevity Gu Family behind Gu Changge, they had to preserve Heavenly Monarch Ziyang’s life.
This was the command of an ancient existence behind him!
Thinking of this, he hesitated no longer. If he didn’t act, Heavenly Monarch Ziyang truly would die at Gu Changge’s hands today!
A Sacred Emperor struck, his might shaking heaven and earth, instantly blotting out everything here, transforming into a world-destroying millstone that left all cultivators and prodigies aghast, a trembling rising from the depths of their souls, as if facing the might of heaven itself.
This was simply not a power that man could contend against.
“Then I’ll have to trouble Aunt Qing.”
However, facing this strike, Gu Changge’s expression still showed not the slightest change. He was still smiling faintly, all the while examining the Chaos Dao Bone in his hand.
These words of his seemed to be spoken to the void behind him.
Ceng!
The next moment, a stunningly brilliant sword light suddenly poured out of the void like moonlight — gorgeous and beautiful, with a flawlessness like pure ice and immaculate jade.
A blurry, graceful figure in azure robes flitted through the void, then returned to boundless nothingness.
With a pu!
The eyes of the old man in the Grand Luo Daoist Robe who had struck suddenly went wide, filled with terror, despair, and disbelief.
Before everyone’s utterly shaken gazes, a plum blossom of blood bloomed at the center of his brow, piercing clean through from front to back.
His divine soul had already been silently annihilated!
Body and soul, utterly destroyed!
In an instant, the surroundings fell into dead silence!
“Purple Mansion’s Sacred Emperor insisted on making an enemy of me, so I killed him as a warning to others.”
Gu Changge glanced at the Purple Mansion crowd before him, their faces all deathly pale, and sighed softly, speaking as if somewhat helpless.
At this moment, everyone’s faces turned white as they all realized — after today, the Beyond was likely about to change!
