108: Lu Yuan's arrival is a death wish?
"Sect Master Gu's divine abilities are matchless... This old man is convinced."
He lowered his head and spoke no more.
"Who else?"
Gu Changge stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering, his gaze full of disdain.
"This seat is not convinced!"
Another cold voice rang out.
From the direction of Wanhun Hall, a figure completely shrouded in black robes slowly floated out.
Wanhun Hall Grand Elder, Hun Xuwu!
The space around him displayed a strange distortion, as if he did not exist within this time and space.
"Gu Changge, your talent is indeed astonishing."
"But if you think you can make my Wanhun Hall submit with just this, it is not enough."
"This seat has mastered the Sixth Transformation of the Soul Law and the Fifth Transformation Spatial Law. Although your yellow springs water is strong, it may not be able to harm this seat in the slightest."
Hun Xuwu's tone was arrogant.
He was confident that with the strangeness of the Law of Space, dealing with a single Gu Changge would be more than enough.
"Is that so?"
Gu Changge did not make a move, nor did he even look at him. He simply took half a step back and bowed slightly toward the old man behind him.
"Grandfather, please take action and teach him the rules."
Gu Daoxuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them.
In that instant.
The sky over the entire Heavenly Demon Mountain Range turned completely dark.
A terrifying Aura ten times, even a hundred times stronger than Gu Changge's, erupted like a landslide or a tsunami.
"Underworld Emperor True Immortal Aspect, appear."
Gu Daoxuan's voice was hoarse, yet it sounded like a great bell, vibrating deep within everyone's Divine Soul.
Buzz!
Behind him, a ten-thousand-foot-tall grey phantom slowly rose.
The phantom was clad in imperial robes and wore a ceremonial crown. Though its face was blurred, its eyes revealed a cold indifference that viewed all things as mere straw dogs.
In its hand, it held an ancient Ledger of Life and Death, and its feet rested upon a throne piled high with countless white bones.
The Underworld Emperor!
The supreme True Immortal who governed death and the netherworld!
Although this was only a dharma aspect, the sliver of True Immortal will it contained caused all the Void Refining Cultivators present to feel a shudder originating from the depths of their Souls.
It was the instinctive fear of an inferior before a superior.
"Kneel."
The Underworld Emperor Aspect slowly extended a finger and pointed toward Hun Xuwu from a distance.
There were no energy fluctuations, nor any world-shaking sounds.
But in Hun Xuwu's perception, this finger felt as if the entire netherworld was pressing down on him.
The Law of Space he took pride in froze instantly before this finger.
His unpredictable Soul Law trembled even more under this finger, unable to be mobilized in the slightest.
"This is... a True Immortal Aspect?!"
"Half-step Body Integration?! How is this possible!"
Hun Xuwu let out a scream of despair.
Thud!
His knees buckled, and under that irresistible pressure of death, he knelt directly in the void. His entire skeleton emitted overburdened cracking sounds as he bled from his seven orifices, unable to move.
Defeated.
Before he could even make a move, just from the pressure of the Aura, he was utterly defeated.
"I... am convinced..."
Hun Xuwu squeezed out these few words with difficulty, his eyes filled with fear and awe.
The entire field was dead silent.
If Gu Changge's earlier display was shocking, then Gu Daoxuan's display now was despair-inducing.
Half-step Body Integration! Underworld Emperor True Immortal Aspect!
With such strength, looking across the entire Eastern Wilderness, who could match him besides those legendary Body Integration old monsters?
"Congratulations, Alliance Leader Gu!"
"We are willing to respect the Heavenly Demon Sect as our leader!"
Blood Sea Demon Lord of the Blood God Sect, Bai Haichan of the Shiyin Sect, and others reacted extremely quickly, immediately bowing and shouting their congratulations.
Following that, a tsunami of congratulations resounded through the clouds.
Gu Changge stood atop the high platform, enjoying the worship of the masses, a boastful and wild laugh appearing on his face.
Finally!
He had finally taken this crucial step!
"Hehe, what a grand display."
"A bunch of turkeys and dogs huddling together, and you dare to call yourselves an Alliance?"
An extremely mocking voice abruptly exploded in the void, directly drowning out the cheers of the tens of thousands of demonic Cultivators present.
"Who is it?!"
Gu Changge's face instantly darkened, and he snapped his head up toward the sky.
Above the Heavenly Demon Sect's mountain-protecting array, the void suddenly shattered like a mirror.
A stable spatial tunnel was forcibly carved out.
Then.
Several figures stepped slowly out of the tunnel.
At the head was a man in green robes, with black hair cascading like a waterfall. His eyes had a pale golden hue, and a faint, playful smile hung at the corner of his mouth.
It was Lu Yuan!
Beside him stood two stunning women.
On the left was Gu Qingxue, dressed in moon-white palace attire, her temperament as cold and aloof as an immortal.
On the right was Xiao Yuechan, wearing an ice-blue flowing immortal dress, her brow filled with hatred.
Behind the three, Fairy Lengyue led the other four Void Refining Great Powers of Guanghan Palace, lined up in a row. Their Aura was magnificent, not at all weaker than the formation of the Six Demonic Sects.
"Lu Yuan!"
Seeing the newcomer, Gu Changge's pupils shrank violently. His fists clenched instantly, his nails digging into his palms until fresh blood flowed.
After returning to the Heavenly Demon Sect, he had someone investigate and already knew Gu Qingxue's identity, and he also knew the person before him was the Old Ancestor of the Azure Cloud Sect.
He immediately realized that it was this person who had abducted his cousin!
New hatred and old grudges erupted completely at this moment.
Especially when his gaze fell upon Xiao Yuechan beside Lu Yuan, a flash of disbelief and twisted jealousy flickered in his eyes.
At this moment, the gaze Xiao Yuechan used to look at Lu Yuan was filled with tenderness and undisguised admiration.
That kind of gaze once belonged only to him, Gu Changge!
"Slut!"
Gu Changge roared in his heart, feeling as if his head were covered in green, his lungs nearly bursting with rage.
And when he saw Gu Qingxue on the other side, the fire of anger in his eyes grew even stronger.
That woman, clearly only at the Soul Transformation Stage, had heavily injured him with a single finger in the Guanghan Immortal Mansion, causing him, a reincarnated Devil Emperor, to lose all face.
"Lu Yuan! You actually dare to deliver yourself to my doorstep?"
Gu Changge took a deep breath, suppressing the violent rage in his heart as he sneered, "This is the Heavenly Demon Sect, the base of our Six Demonic Sects!"
"There is a path to heaven but you won't take it; there is no gate to Hell yet you barge in."
"Today shall be the day you die!"
Below.
Wanhun Hall Master, Soul Refining Venerable, also recognized Lu Yuan at a glance. He immediately jumped out and pointed at Lu Yuan, cursing loudly:
"You named Lu! Last time in Fallen Demon Valley, you were lucky to run rampant. Today, the six sects are gathered, with experts as numerous as clouds. Let's see how much longer you can be arrogant!"
"Hurry up and get down here to meet your death!"
Facing this sky full of curses and killing intent.
Lu Yuan's expression remained calm as he merely gave Soul Refining Venerable a faint glance.
"Noisy."
He spoke those two words softly.
Boom!
A terrifying pressure belonging to the Late-Stage Void Refinement suddenly erupted from Lu Yuan's body, like the Heavenly River pouring down, accurately pressing toward Soul Refining Venerable.
Poof!
Although Soul Refining Venerable was also at the Peak-Nascent Soul Stage, before Lu Yuan's pressure—which was fused with the Fifth Transformation of the Chaos Law—he was like an ant facing a celestial dragon.
He didn't even have time to scream before he was pressed directly to his knees on the ground. His entire skeleton crackled, and blood sprayed from his seven orifices, looking as if he were about to be crushed to death.
