278: Gu Changge made a move
Just as the destructive torrent of energy, powerful enough to erase all heavens and make the myriad Dao wail, was about to completely engulf Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai...
The Five Supremes already wore ferocious and greedy smiles, believing victory was firmly in their grasp.
"Noisy."
A voice, so plain it was almost indifferent, abruptly sounded at the core of the entire battlefield.
The voice was not loud, yet it seemed to contain the Supreme Law, instantly overriding all the roaring energy and clashing Law, clearly entering the ears of every Supreme and Xiao Hei.
It was Gu Changge.
He had been standing still in the distance, seemingly unconnected to this earth-shattering Emperor War, but at this moment, he finally moved.
He made no earth-shattering movements; he merely raised his right hand casually and gently pressed down toward the five individuals from afar.
It was as if swatting a buzzing fly.
It was such a simple, casual movement.
The next moment—
An indescribable, incomprehensible, and irresistible power descended out of thin air!
This power had no dazzling divine light, no grand momentum, and did not even trigger any fluctuation of the Great Dao Law.
It appeared silently, yet it felt like the weight of the entire Universe, the will of all heavens and myriad worlds itself—an existence that transcended the very concept of "power"!
"What?!"
Great Emperor Tianhuang, who was about to unleash a killing blow, had the madness and majesty on his face instantly freeze, replaced by boundless shock and disbelief!
The Peak Emperor Power surging around him, enough to tear apart star rivers, instantly melted before this force like snow under the sun!
The myriad Dao Law he invoked shattered inch by inch like a fragile spiderweb!
The terrifying aura brought by his ultimate sublimation, which seemed capable of bursting this Great World, rapidly withered and fell, like a punctured balloon!
"No!! This is impossible!!!"
Great Emperor Tianhuang let out a distorted, terrified roar; his Soul was trembling.
He felt that the invincible Emperor Heart he had forged over hundreds of millions of years was as fragile as thin paper before this power! He couldn't even muster the slightest thought of "resistance."
"Pfft—!"
Like an illusion being popped, the Peak Emperor Body of Great Emperor Tianhuang, which had just returned, was knocked directly out of his state of ultimate sublimation by this invisible force, like a kite with a broken string!
The ferocious smiles on the faces of the other Supremes froze, their eyes filled with extreme shock and disbelief!
Immediately afterward, their own terrifying power, enough to tear apart the sea of stars, crumbled before this invisible force!
Their connection with their Emperor Weapons was also forcibly severed; the Emperor Weapons wailed, their divine light dimming, hovering motionlessly in the air like common iron!
The accumulation of ages and the Supreme Dao Law they once prided themselves on seemed so laughable and vulnerable before this power!
Like dumplings dropping into a pot, The Five Supremes, peerless beings who once dominated the Universe and looked down upon the rise and fall of epochs, along with their infinitely powerful Supreme Emperor Weapon...
...now fell from the sky without dignity or power to resist, smashing heavily onto the cold, hard ground!
The world-destroying torrent of energy, capable of burying an era, silently vanished like a candle in the wind the moment the invisible force swept past, as if it had never existed.
The entire sealed space fell into dead silence; even time seemed to freeze.
Only Gu Changge remained, his white robes whiter than snow, spotless, standing still as if he had just performed a trivial task.
The Five Supremes lay limp like dead dogs in their respective deep pits, their Emperor bones broken, Emperor blood gushing out.
An invisible, ineffable field of terrifying power firmly suppressed them.
Their eyes were filled with extreme horror, along with the blankness and confusion resulting from their worldview and understanding of power being completely shattered.
That casual press just now had violently ripped open the ceiling of their hundreds of thousands of years of knowledge, revealing the unimaginable, heart-stopping, profound sky beyond.
Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai also retracted their aura and retreated behind Gu Changge. Their gazes toward The Five Supremes held cold killing intent, but even more, a deep reverence for their master's unfathomable, abyss-like strength.
In the dead silence, Great Emperor Tianhuang, the most heavily injured and most weakened in aura, struggled to raise his head. His Chaos Qi had long dissipated, revealing a face twisted by extreme terror and the collapse of his Dao foundation.
He stared fixedly at Gu Changge, his voice hoarse and broken, like an old bellows:
"You... who exactly are you?! In the ancient history of the Xuanhuang Great World... no, in the history of this Universe, an existence like you is absolutely impossible?!
Do you come from the outside world? Or from an unspeakable, unknown epoch?!"
This question voiced the shared thoughts of the other four Supremes.
They had existed for countless ages and believed they knew most of the secrets in the Universe, yet they had no impression whatsoever of this white-robed young man before them!
His methods, moreover, completely subverted their understanding of "power"!
Hearing this, Gu Changge's gaze calmly swept over Great Emperor Tianhuang. That look was like a soaring Dragon from the Nine Heavens looking down upon an ant struggling in the mud—indifferent, distant, and utterly placid.
"Who I am is not important."
He spoke slowly, his voice calm, yet carrying an absolute, unquestionable majesty that seemed to originate from the Origin of the Universe.
"What is important is for you to understand your current situation."
He paused slightly, his gaze sweeping over The Five Supremes one by one, as if he could pierce through their Divine Souls.
"Now, I ask, and you answer."
Gu Changge's gaze calmly swept the entire area, and he spoke lightly. His voice was not loud, but it carried intense authority, piercing directly into the Soul:
"This Lord is very curious."
He slowly stepped forward, his pace composed, as if strolling through his own courtyard.
"You all severed yourselves with a single strike and lurked in the restricted areas, you should be withered in Qi and blood, barely clinging to life."
His gaze was like a physical presence, sweeping over Blood Prison Supreme and the others one by one, finally settling on Blood Prison Supreme.
"Why is your Qi and blood far more vigorous than ordinary self-severed ones? And why is the loss of your Lifespan unreasonably slow?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like thunder exploding in the hearts of the Supremes!
He saw it! He really saw it!
The expressions of Great Emperor Tianhuang and the others changed drastically, their eyes flickering as they subconsciously tried to avoid that gaze which seemed to see through everything—this was one of their greatest secrets!
"Dream on!"
Blood Prison Supreme struggled and roared, "Kill me if you must! Trying to interrogate this Lord is wishful thinking!"
Gu Changge said nothing more. He directly extended his right index finger and gently pointed at Blood Prison Supreme from afar.
"Agh—!!!"
Blood Prison Supreme immediately let out a mournful shriek!
He felt his life Origin being forcibly extracted, his Qi and blood rapidly decaying. The agony of watching himself head toward destruction was far more terrifying than immediate death!
"I'll talk! I'll talk! Stop quickly!"
Blood Prison Supreme's psychological defenses collapsed, and he shrieked, "It's... it's people from the outside world!"
