The Calamity of the Blood Dragon War God Clan, a Massacre Without Suspense
The Calamity of the Blood Dragon War God Clan, a Massacre Without Suspense
During this period, the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains could be said to be engulfed in raging flames of war.
Everywhere, armies from the Beyond swept through, and among the Eight Domains, several had already fallen.
In the eyes of many Cultivators and living beings, it would likely take no more than half a year before the entire Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains would completely become territory of the Beyond, occupied by the various Cults of Immortality and Supreme Dao Lineages.
Almost every day, armies of the Beyond could be seen crossing the Boundary Marker Sea, passing over Sky Deer City, and slaughtering their way into the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains.
This plunged countless people into despair. Some ancient clans had long anticipated this and attempted to migrate their entire clans to the Overworld.
But the Beyond had long anticipated their actions and possessed means to track their whereabouts.
So without exception, clans like these all perished miserably on the road of migration.
Rumble!!
At this moment, a terrifying commotion resounded in the depths of this universe. One after another, Ancient Battleships draped in celestial energy and Chaos mist smashed through the firmament, wreathed in heavy, majestic auras as they descended upon this place.
The iron cavalry of the Longevity Gu Family swept across the sky like a torrent. All directions shook violently, the void trembled, and all rules and order collapsed and shattered.
“Judging from Lin Wu’s aura, the Blood Dragon War God Clan is currently in this region. They’ve hidden themselves quite well...”
Aboard the Ancient Battleship, Gu Changge stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his white robes whiter than snow, untouched by a speck of dust, lifting his gaze toward the depths of this universe.
Upon arriving here, the heavenly and earthly rules of the entire Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains had clearly grown much thinner, no longer suppressing everyone.
He knew this was because this place was relatively desolate.
Situated at the edge of the universe, it must have once experienced unimaginably great battles, causing the rules and order here to break.
As a result, this place became so remote and desolate.
That the Blood Dragon War God Clan would migrate and hide here was somewhat unexpected to him, but upon careful thought, it was also within reason.
This Blood Dragon War God Clan was clearly smarter than the other clans. Had they directly migrated to the Overworld, they might have been intercepted by the armies of the Beyond before even arriving.
So they did the opposite, directly choosing to hide in the most desolate region of the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains.
If not for Lin Wu, Gu Changge would have needed to spend some time finding their clan’s hiding place.
“To think the Blood Dragon War God Clan is actually hiding here now. Truly unexpected.”
The Bone Ancestor, dressed in grey robes like an old servant, stood respectfully behind Gu Changge.
Hearing Gu Changge’s almost self-muttering words, he sighed with some emotion.
“This is what’s called circumstances being stronger than people. Now, besides being rats crossing the street scurrying into hiding, what else can they do?”
Gu Changge smiled faintly, his tone dismissive. “The Four Powerful War God Clans—nothing but a joke.”
Ni Shang also stood behind him. Hearing these words, her eyes flickered slightly.
She wore a long black dress, her dark hair dancing lightly, cold and breathtakingly beautiful. Her whole being carried an iceberg-like aloofness—visible but unapproachable.
In terms of cultivation, there were now few in the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains stronger than her.
Otherwise, she could hardly have shouldered the heavy responsibility of assaulting the Family of Protectors back then.
She had not known Gu Changge for long, but she could feel the terrifying control revealed in his every gesture—as if everything in the world was within his expectations.
It was rare to see any trace of surprise on his face.
“Looking at it this way, how could the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains possibly stop him...”
She thought to herself, and somewhat understood why the Sky Deer Goddess had chosen to surrender.
Even the Bone Ancestor did not know that Ni Shang and the Sky Deer Goddess were actually quite familiar with each other and on good terms.
“The Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains no longer have even a sliver of hope for survival.”
Gu Changge said, his gaze gradually deepening.
The great lengths and painstaking effort he had gone to were much the same as those of the other clans and Dao Lineages—naturally, it was all for the so-called Immortal Realm.
After leaving Crimson South City, he had returned to where the Gu Family Army was stationed and issued orders to mobilize personnel, preparing to annihilate these Four Powerful War God Clans.
There was still no news of the other three clans, but as long as he first eliminated this Blood Dragon War God Clan, everything would become simple.
As for Luo Feng and Luo Ying, Gu Changge had imprisoned them in the Ice Prison, ordering them to be strictly guarded.
Before this, the two of them could not die.
Moreover, during this process, he had also interrogated Luo Feng and extracted quite a few secrets about the split between the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains and the Beyond back then.
The withering and death of the Tree of Epoch was, admittedly, within his expectations.
But Gu Changge truly had not expected that Luo Feng had actually chosen to steal the Fortuity of the Beyond back then, allowing the Tree of Epoch to regain its vitality.
That made him quite a ruthless man with no small ambition. Unfortunately, his ability fell short. In the end, during the battle to seize the Heavenly Dao Authority, he suffered backlash and perished, reincarnating thereafter.
Of course, this was also thanks to the shattered heavenly and earthly rules back then. Had the rules been intact, Luo Feng could never have accomplished any of it.
What was planted within the Land of Rebirth deep inside Sky Deer City should be the Tree of Epoch.
However, before the Beyond breached Sky Deer City, it had already been moved away by someone through great means.
Although Gu Changge was not yet certain which clan was responsible, he guessed it was likely inseparable from the Four Powerful War God Clans.
As long as he annihilated these four great clans, the Tree of Epoch would absolutely fall into his hands.
Rumble!!
And just as this terrifying army crushed forward, tens of millions of miles away, in an extremely desolate star region...
Only a few stars appeared somewhat verdant, bearing traces of life.
The rest of the stars were quite barren, with few signs of living beings.
But now, beams of light gates emerged, dazzling and brilliant, from which massive cargo ships rushed out one after another, along with large numbers of riders carrying many goods, hurrying toward the various stars. It looked like they were transporting these things—bustling and busy beyond measure.
On the largest star in the very center, vast stretches of palaces and pavilions had already risen from the ground, Godly Islands floated in the air, silver waterfalls cascaded down, and celestial mist swirled.
For Cultivators, constructing buildings was extremely fast; the troublesome part was inscribing the various Array Patterns.
But in just these few short days, it had already begun to take shape—row upon row of mansions and cave abodes stretching in clusters, clearly on its way to becoming a new dwelling place.
This place was none other than the Blood Dragon Clan, which had relocated from its ancestral grounds and rushed here.
Now it presented a scene of thriving prosperity. In the surrounding starry sky,
there were also quite a few powerful formation masters, their faces grave, sweat covering their foreheads, extremely busy as they inscribed all kinds of mysterious and profound runes, branding them into every stretch of void.
“At the latest, in half a month, our clan’s new ancestral grounds will be completed. Once the Array Patterns are finished, sheltering us from discovery for a million years will be absolutely no problem.”
“Just hold on for another half month, and this calamity will be over.”
Several clan elders of the Blood Dragon War God Clan appeared in the sky, closely watching the surrounding situation, faint smiles on their faces, both relieved and sighing with emotion.
Although the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains were now ravaged by war, they had escaped early. Upon sensing something was wrong, they had moved their entire clan away from their ancestral grounds and found this place.
This made them quite fortunate. Had they been any later, they would likely have been utterly annihilated by the armies of the Beyond like the other forces.
The rules here were very broken, extremely desolate, and close to the edge of the universe, with almost no living stars.
So the Beyond was unlikely to find them here; instead, they would assume their clan had fled to some Overworld.
In this way, their clan gained another few million years of recuperation.
As for the fact that the heavenly and earthly rules here were unsuitable for cultivation, that was not a problem.
Because some days ago, their clan’s Ancestor had revived and returned, bringing back a Supreme Treasure that could hardly be described in words or value.
With that Supreme Treasure, why would they worry about cultivation problems here?
However, only the upper echelons of the Blood Dragon War God Clan knew of this matter, as it involved their Ancestor.
One must know that their Ancestor was an existence of incredibly ancient vintage, traceable even back to the very birth of the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains.
“Although the Ancestor has returned, he still cannot possibly be a match for the Beyond.”
“Unless the Ancestor can touch that realm—in that case, how could our clan not have a chance to counterattack the Beyond and dominate it?”
Thinking of this, the several clan elders grew excited for a moment, imagining the distant future where they dominated the Beyond...
How could such ambition have no chance?
“Lin Wu, brother, do you think we can only stay here from now on, unable to leave even half a step?”
Meanwhile, deep within the Blood Dragon War God Clan’s new ancestral grounds.
On a mountain peak, several young men and women had gathered together, their faces carrying gloom, drinking wine here in low spirits.
The speaker was a beautiful young woman, and the man across from her was none other than Lin Wu.
But Lin Wu’s expression was now equally melancholy as he drank sullenly by himself.
This was the fifth day since he had followed Gu Changge’s instructions and returned to his clan’s grounds.
Much as Gu Changge had guessed, he had returned to the original clan grounds without incident, where clansmen waiting there had informed him through secret methods, guiding him to this place.
But now their clan’s upper echelons had unanimously decided to seal the mountain, hiding here and no longer meddling in the affairs of the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains.
Had Lin Wu returned any later, he likely would never have been able to return to the clan grounds in this lifetime and would have been cast out.
The Lin Clan had even shown no concern for his life or death.
This left Lin Wu’s heart heavy. He found that ever since the Beyond invaded, the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains had changed drastically.
Many clansmen were now vastly different from the image he had known before, becoming selfish and self-serving.
This disappointed him immensely. Sure enough, in the face of life and death, any disguise could be torn off.
“Actually, not being able to leave is fine too. At least we’re safe, and we don’t have to be annihilated by the armies of the Beyond like the other clans.” Then, Lin Wu glanced at the few people before him and said with a smile, his expression carrying much see-through-it-all calm, and even a world-weariness unbefitting his age.
He had other words he did not say, but there was no need to say them.
Lin Wu knew that perhaps before long, the Lin Clan’s new ancestral grounds would be found by Gu Changge. The current peace was, in truth, only temporary.
At that time, when Gu Changge led his army to slaughter their way here, could the Lin Clan resist? Even Sky Deer City could not stop Gu Changge—wouldn’t the Lin Clan be crushed like dry weeds, utterly powerless to fight back?
“He promised me that as long as this matter is completed, he’ll spare me and Lu Luo, and my mission will be finished...”
Lin Wu could not help but clench his fist. All along, this had been the conviction he used to persuade himself to persevere.
This already rotten Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains, this Lin Clan rotten to the core—how were they worth protecting with his life?
And just as the Lin Clan members were inscribing various powerful formations...
In the distant starry sky, a rumbling commotion suddenly came, as if thousands of troops and horses were galloping forth.
Terrifying killing intent rushed forth like a vast mountain torrent, threatening to split heaven and earth and burst through the cosmos.
The entire world trembled, and the already withered stars shuddered in unison, about to fall to the ground.
This sudden scene stunned the Lin Clan members for a moment; then they reacted and could not help but tremble.
Everyone’s face turned somewhat pale. Divine rainbows shot into the sky one after another. The sounds of horns and great bells abruptly rang out, sweeping across this starry sky, causing all Lin Clan members to put down what was in their hands and rush out in haste.
“Enemy attack!”
“Enemy attack!!”
The many clan elders of the Blood Dragon War God Clan changed expression drastically and could not help but shout loudly, simultaneously bringing out their respective artifacts, wary and vigilant to the extreme.
At this time, aside from the armies of the Beyond, absolutely no one else would come slaughtering their way here.
They simply could not figure out who had exposed the Lin Clan’s new ancestral grounds, inviting this calamity.
“It’s him!”
“It’s definitely Gu Changge who’s come to kill us!”
Lin Wu naturally noticed this disturbance as well. His body shook, and his whole person trembled slightly—seemingly inexplicably excited, yet also seemingly terrified.
It was an emotion he found incredibly complicated.
The other young men and women beside him also changed countenance drastically, somewhat unable to suppress their fear.
“What’s going on?”
“Who exposed our clan’s current location?”
In the deepest part of the Lin Clan, towering palaces stood one after another, shrouded in vast Chaos mist, when surging auras suddenly emerged.
Boom!!
At this moment, several figures walked out from within, all incomparably ancient, their faces weathered, their auras terrifying.
Without a doubt, they were all Ancestors of the Lin Clan, and every one of them was a True Daoist in cultivation.
This sudden army made them furrow their brows, feeling that something was amiss.
They had only fled to this place not long ago—how exactly had the Beyond found them?
Could it be that the Lin Clan had a traitor secretly defecting to the Beyond?
But now was not the time to consider this matter.
“If it’s just an ordinary army of the Beyond, that’s manageable. We’ll deal with them first, then purge the clan members.”
“This old man would like to see just who dares betray our clan.”
Their faces were incomparably ugly. Then, with a step, they walked out of this place, arriving above the starry sky and gazing distantly at the terrifying army.
Meanwhile, at an ancient altar in the deepest part of the Lin Clan, this place had inexplicable rules permeating it, like an independent inner world.
Here, black rivers converged, like the Yellow Springs, forming a deathly silent ocean.
Incomparably calm, and black in a way that chilled the heart.
One could even see quite a few nether spirits wandering by the black rivers, descending from distant dimensions, finally turning into motes of light and walking into the ocean.
The ocean was vast, its end beyond sight, exuding an incomparably mysterious and profound aura.
As far as the eye could see, an ancient tree could be seen rooted within the ocean, its branches and leaves withered, entwined with wisps of light.
A man who looked quite young but whose aura was incomparably ancient was speaking to the figure sitting cross-legged with closed eyes upon the altar. “Father, the army of the Beyond has come to kill us. Will it affect your plan?”
This young-looking man was none other than Lin Qinglong.
The one who had appeared deep within Sky Deer City back then and ordered the evacuation and abandonment of the city was also him.
Hearing these words, the ancient figure sitting cross-legged on the altar opened his eyes slightly, as if a vast and surging aura filled this place.
“The Epoch Dao Fruit still needs a bit more time to ripen. No matter what, you hold them off first,” he said indifferently.
“Yes, Father.”
Lin Qinglong nodded, then with a step, his figure left this place and appeared in the sky outside.
His cultivation was unfathomable. Although he had not yet touched the threshold of the Immortal Realm, he was among the top tier even among True Daoists.
Rumble!!
All of a sudden, in the depths of this universe, in the boundless and vast frontier...
Great stars wreathed in Chaos Energy suddenly shattered, and the giant celestial bodies revolving around them also burst apart with a roar.
“Wuu wuu......”
The sound of an ancient horn drifted and spread far and wide.
Weng!
The void trembled, and celestial mist broke apart.
One after another, Domain-Breaking Ancient Battleships appeared with a roar, tearing through the sky, their majestic auras pressing down.
The starry sky along their path cracked apart entirely, and heaven and earth shook, as if the world was about to end.
Following close behind was an even more terrifying army, like a torrent, shuttling through the universe.
Gu Changge stood upon the Ancient Battleship, transcendent and otherworldly, gazing distantly at that star region ahead. He shook his head lightly, then ordered indifferently, “Kill.”
Boom!!
As his words fell, sky-piercing auras immediately burst forth from between heaven and earth.
“Kill!”
The army of the Longevity Gu Family charged forth to kill, its grand might still surging, shaking boundless territories. The iron cavalry rolled forward, slaughtering into the star region ahead.
For a time, heaven-shaking roars and killing cries erupted here.
Endless killing intent swept in, blotting out the sky and covering the earth.
At the same time, aboard the Ancient Battleships, figures stepped out one after another. Supreme experts appeared and struck, raising their palms as terrifying giant palm imprints swept across the sky.
Boom!!!
Terrifying Force of Law, like billions of strands of divine radiance and celestial brilliance, with Chaos Energy billowing, vented out in all directions.
Near the edge of the universe, small worlds and great worlds caught in the fallout were submerged by the rules, vanishing and collapsing in an instant.
Countless living beings died before they could even react.
In the current era, a single thought of a True Daoist could easily evolve and destroy everything. Even if the universe withered and worlds decayed, they would not perish—powerful to the point of near immortality.
But now, terrifying torrents of light burst forth from this place.
True Daoists roared, their dharma bodies exceeding ten million zhang, their great hands spanning ten million miles, instantly clashing together in battle.
“That’s Gu Changge!”
“He’s come to kill us!”
Many of the Lin Clan trembled, their faces pale, recognizing Gu Changge at the front. To them, he was a terrifying shadow that could absolutely never be erased.
In an instant, everyone was gripped by fear, especially upon seeing that mighty army charging to kill.
Weng!
Heaven and earth shuddered. The Gu Family’s iron cavalry surged out like a tide. Among them, the lowest in cultivation were still Sacred Realm existences who had experienced countless life-and-death battles.
They descended beside the Ancient Battleships, wielding ancient divine weapons, shrouded in celestial radiance, their killing intent billowing, as if returned from an Asura hell, bathed in blood, their baleful aura soaring to the heavens.
Every mount was a pure-blooded creature of formidable strength, raised by the Gu Family from a young age, their armor engraved with powerful runes, divine light faintly gleaming, powerful beyond measure.
Such an army had crossed the Boundary Marker Sea, breached Sky Deer City, and slaughtered all along the way. The living beings who had died at their hands were beyond count.
This was a crushing massacre without the slightest suspense!
