Seizing the World's Will, Refining the Universe into a Dao Body
Seizing the World’s Will, Refining the Universe into a Dao Body
After planting the Restriction within the Epoch Dao Fruit, Changge also began to refine this universe.
With his current cultivation, completely taking control of an ancient universe was actually quite difficult.
Fortunately, he possessed the Palm Divine Kingdom, which he could use to carry out the refinement, fusing the Palm Divine Kingdom and this universe into one.
The drawback of this method was that Gu Changge would have to find a way to erase this universe’s World’s Will.
In doing so, this universe would thereafter become a dead, desolate land, collapsing from then on, never to...
Without a World’s Will to maintain the universe’s operation, its march toward extinction and destruction was naturally unavoidable.
Changge, however, felt no reluctance whatsoever about this.
The universes and worlds that had perished because of him were already beyond counting, so he naturally did not mind adding one more universe to the tally.
Only by seizing the World’s Will could he completely refine the Palm Divine Kingdom.
Over the next few days, Changge left the Divine Ruins, tore open the World Barrier passage of this universe, and appeared beyond the vast, boundless starfield.
He directly manifested his incomparably enormous Dharma Body, its resplendent golden radiance stretching far beyond tens of millions of zhang, illuminating this starry sky—he was simply like the giant from ancient myths who split open heaven and earth, able to hold up the firmament with a lift of his hand.
Boundless Chaos Energy erupted. Around this universe, Grand Runes emerged one after another, containing immeasurable light, as if branded and burning in every direction. The vast, boundless fluctuations were like wave after wave of a great ocean crashing forth.
Even though this universe was incomparably ancient, it still could not withstand such fluctuations, and terrifying cracks began to appear.
Of course, the many living beings and Cultivators of this universe could not perceive these fluctuations.
Changge sat cross-legged in the boundless void, his eyes deep and indifferent. While refining the Palm Divine Kingdom, he was simultaneously using the Grand Runes to melt away this universe’s World’s Will.
Strands of Grand Dao Chains emerged around him, coiling toward his body like shackles.
This was the counterattack of the World’s Will, attempting to resist his power—it would not simply allow Gu Changge to grind it into oblivion.
“Defier of Heaven.”
“Kill without mercy.”
The next moment, a blurry thought transmitted into Gu Changge’s ears.
His expression remained indifferent, without the slightest ripple. The many Grand Dao Chains on his body began emitting teeth-grinding cracking sounds, about to shatter.
In the unseen depths of heaven and earth, an enormous, indifferent eye slowly turned and condensed, gazing toward Gu Changge.
This was the manifestation of the World’s Will—it had sensed the crisis of being erased by another.
Changge’s expression remained unruffled as he continued refining the Palm Divine Kingdom.
Strands of crimson light flowed out like an Astral River, enveloping this entire universe.
“Defier of Heaven, kill without mercy.”
This time, the cold killing intent of that enormous eye grew even more pronounced, already materializing into substance.
“Is this a calamity? What on earth has happened?”
Some of the Quasi-Nirvana Realm experts living in this universe felt fear rise in their hearts.
A heavenly-might-like aura enveloped this world, as if a catastrophe could descend at any moment and destroy this universe.
They did not know what was happening—they only suddenly felt dread, trembling beneath this aura.
The higher one’s cultivation, the clearer one’s perception of such fluctuations.
Conversely, those ordinary Cultivators and living beings felt nothing at all.
First, the Divine Ruins, silent for countless ages, suddenly appeared in the world, within which a boundlessly vast ancient tree spread its branches and leaves, letting down endless Chaos Energy.
A terrifying existence beyond description stood guard within, shattering a Dao Artifact with a single palm strike.
And now... in the depths of the Outer Territory, a horrifying great battle that left people aghast and chilled to the bone was unfolding. Just what was happening to this world?
In the depths of heaven and earth, that enormous eye finally moved.
A terrifying attack came killing forth—it was the wrath of heaven, like the Astral River pouring down, mingled with all manner of ultimate assaults from countless ages past.
The Black Heaven Saber, the Nine-Colored Immortal Sword, the Primal Mother Qi Cauldron, the Myriad Things Furnace, the Purple Gold Mountain-River Seal...
These were all powerful weapons once branded into heaven and earth, each containing the vast divine might of True Daoists and even those beyond. Now they were projected forth by it, to slay Gu Changge.
Gu Changge was utterly unafraid. His gaze was cold and sharp, transforming into blazing Chaos beams as he struck out against those assaults.
World-toppling might swept through heaven and earth, surging down across this realm, shaking and splitting the universe itself.
He extended a giant hand, within which billions of divine rays shone, as if intending to mend the heavens themselves.
That giant hand covered the sky, smashing against the various weapons and sending them trembling.
Dao light in the billions, divine radiance in the billions—it could simply tear apart the eternal heavens.
The many crimson thunderbolts and black divine chains instantly turned to dust.
Peerless imperial might swept through the universe and all creation.
Even a World’s Will from a world incapable of birthing Celestial Realm existences far surpassed Remnant Immortals.
Gu Changge’s brow furrowed slightly. He rose once more, pressing a palm toward that pair of terrifying eyes, intending to pierce through them.
All the weapons flipped and tumbled beneath his palm. The most blazing light erupted here, submerging the universe.
Divine might vast and boundless evolved all manner of supreme attacks within it, evolving the cosmos, the primordial beginning, the profound yellow—
It could simply encompass everything between heaven and earth.
The World’s Will was not like a Cultivator. Though emotionless, that did not mean it would allow an outsider to erase and possess it.
Gu Changge’s audacity was truly too great—even the Ancient Reincarnation Supreme Being of old would not have dared do such a thing.
That enormous eye moved once more, its gaze turning with it.
That icy, merciless intent, in particular, seemed about to materialize into substance!
In the depths of heaven and earth, many blurry figures emerged—not belonging to this world, but evolved by the Heavenly Path.
Mist shrouded them, as if they did not exist in this stretch of time and space, impossible to spy upon.
They all struck out in unison. Heaven and earth blurred in an instant; this universe plunged into darkness, as if it had truly reached the end of days.
“With my current strength alone, erasing the World’s Will would still take considerable time.”
“It seems I must finish this quickly, lest it affect the other universes.”
Gu Changge furrowed his brow, sensing that this universe’s World’s Will was far more troublesome than those of the worlds he had encountered before.
Therefore, he no longer wished to waste time, and directly brought out the Eight Wastelands Fiend Halberd.
A halberd light swept across, its resplendent might domineering and peerless, sharp to the extreme, destroying the eternal heavens. All the figures of Principles of Dao exploded beneath this single strike, dissipating into ash.
The icy eye manifested by the World’s Will was pierced through by the halberd light, countless cracks appearing across it like porcelain, as if it would shatter into dust in the very next moment.
The next instant, black light emerged at the spot between Gu Changge’s brows. Thousands upon thousands of strands of black light spread out boundlessly, transforming into a black hole that could swallow the entire universe and all its heavens.
He directly devoured the World’s Will’s final remnant thoughts, refining this universe into his own Universe Dao Body.
The terrifying fluctuations finally subsided, gradually returning to tranquility.
The countless thoughts of all living beings under heaven surfaced in Gu Changge’s mind. His expression was indifferent and calm, without the slightest ripple.
Only those existences whose cultivation had reached the Quasi-Nirvana Realm vaguely sensed something in the unseen, trembling with fear.
They dared not go investigate, and could only carefully turtle up within their own territories.
As Gu Changge’s current killing move, the Eight Wastelands Fiend Halberd could destroy a Remnant Immortal with a single strike—effortlessly.
Moreover, unlike in the Beyond, unleashing the Eight Wastelands Fiend Halberd here carried no worry of being detected or seen through by anyone.
Half a month later, having arranged all of this, Gu Changge began retracing his original route, planning to return to the Beyond.
Time-wise, his wedding date with Yue Mingkong was already drawing near. In addition, he had also sent a voice transmission to Tao Yao, asking her to come guard the Tree of Epoch.
