281: Chapter 281 Eliminating the Formation

Gu Changge turned around, his gaze calmly sweeping over the five Supreme Emperor Weapons suspended in the air, their divine light dimmed by their masters' demise: the Heavenly Desolate Halberd, the Asura Blood Sword, the Heaven Devouring Halberd, the Primordial Stone Mirror, and the Nine Nether Soul Summoning Banner.

These Supreme Emperor Weapons, which had once accompanied Supremes in battles through the ages, drunk imperial blood, and stirred the winds and clouds of the Universe, now exuded a desolate sense of being at the end of their road.

Gu Changge's eyes showed no ripple, as if he merely saw a few unsightly miscellaneous items.

He casually raised his hand and gently waved his sleeve at the five emperor weapons.

There was no earth-shattering explosion, nor any strange phenomena of Laws shattering.

Just like erasing chalk marks from a blackboard, those five Supreme Emperor Weapons, which were enough to drive any Quasi-Emperor mad and make Great Emperors treat them with solemnity, silently transformed into the most fundamental particle streams with Gu Changge's casual flick, and then completely annihilated, as if they had never existed in the world.

“Uh...”

Little Hei, standing nearby, let out a suppressed gulp, his eyes wide, staring fixedly at the spot where the emperor weapons had disappeared, his face filled with heartache.

Those were all Supreme Materials!

Even if he didn't use them, melting them down and refining them, or using them to comprehend the Imperial Dao Laws within them, would be priceless treasures! Just like that... gone?

The Little White Dragon's whiskers also trembled slightly, and a hint of regret flashed in its huge Dragon eyes.

Although it preferred weapons it refined itself, the Materials of those emperor weapons were indeed good things.

Gu Changge took in the reactions of the two little fellows, the corner of his mouth curving imperceptibly upwards, and said indifferently, “Look at the lack of ambition in you two.”

Little Hei and Little Bai immediately looked a bit embarrassed.

Gu Changge shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of admonishment, and also a trace of imperceptible care:

“Other people's Dao weapons, after all, contain other people's Dao and Laws. No matter how powerful they are, they are difficult to perfectly align with one's own Great Dao. Relying on external objects is ultimately inferior.”

As he spoke, he flipped his palm, and two divine objects appeared out of thin air in his palm.

One mass presented a deep dark gold, as if countless stars were being born and dying within it, exuding a heavy aura of eternal indestructibility and immunity to all Laws—Eternal Immortal Gold!

The other mass shimmered with flowing light, seeming to contain all the Origin Qi of the time before heaven and earth opened, constantly transforming between reality and illusion, mysteriously unfathomable—Chaos Primordial Stone!

As soon as these two divine objects appeared, the surrounding Void Realm turbulence, which had not yet fully subsided, instantly calmed down!

Their grade far exceeded the Materials of the five emperor weapons just now!

“This... what is this?!”

Little Hei's eyes instantly straightened, and his breathing became rapid.

From that mass of dark golden Immortal Gold, he felt an eternal, indestructible Dao Rhyme that perfectly matched his own Golden-Winged Roc Bloodline!

The Little White Dragon's Dragon pupils also burst with brilliant light, staring intently at the mass of Chaos Primordial Stone.

“Eternal Immortal Gold, Chaos Primordial Stone.”

Gu Changge said calmly, “Take them. Refine your own destined emperor weapons with your own hands, according to your own Dao and Laws.”

He tossed them casually, and the two masses of priceless immortal Materials flew separately towards Little Hei and Little Bai.

In Gu Changge's System space, there were no less than a hundred Supreme Emperor Weapons alone, and countless other top-grade imperial Materials such as Star God Iron, Phoenix Crimson Gold, and various Mother Qi that could carry Laws, all shimmering with heart-stopping divine light.

Their sheer quantity was enough to drive any Great Emperor mad.

“Only emperor weapons forged with your own hands, imbued with your own Great Dao and heart's blood, are most suitable for you. Only they can grow with you and ultimately accompany you to the peak.”

Little Hei and Little Bai hastily and carefully caught the flying immortal Materials, feeling the vast, ocean-like Origin Qi within them that perfectly matched their own, their bodies trembling slightly with excitement.

“Thank you, Master, for the treasure!”

The two spoke in unison, their voices filled with uncontrollable excitement and gratitude.

Looking at the immortal Materials in their hands, there was no longer any trace of regret for the five destroyed emperor weapons in their eyes, only endless fervor and impatience!

With such Supreme immortal Materials, they would certainly be able to refine their own destined emperor weapons that perfectly aligned with the Great Dao, their power absolutely far surpassing the weapons of those ancient Supremes!

Gu Changge slowly looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through layers of space, looking beyond the endless Void Realm, where obscure and massive Formation Veins were slowly operating, drawing the life force from the Xuanhuang Great World.

“Alright, let's go deal with the Formation nodes laid by those parasites first.”

“Yes!”

Little Hei and Little Bai carefully put away the immortal Materials, responding spiritedly.

Gu Changge took a step, already taking the two away from this desolate forbidden zone, and teleporting towards the nearest Formation node in their memories.

Little Hei and Little Bai only felt a blur before their eyes, and they were no longer in the desolate forbidden zone, but had appeared in a decaying, desolate Star Domain.

Before them was an enormous ancient star.

On the star's surface, the outlines of ruined walls and broken tiles were faintly visible; once magnificent architectural complexes had now become ruins, deeply buried by the dust of time.

Several dry riverbeds, like huge scars, snaked across the gray-yellow land, silently narrating the vitality of the past.

The entire star's Spiritual Qi was extremely thin, like an old man in his twilight years, his oil lamp running dry.

Little Hei's Divine Thought swept across, and his heart tightened. The remaining creatures on this star were few and far between, and the highest cultivation among them was not even in the Cave Heaven Realm.

Clearly, this world had long since reached its end, and perhaps before long, it would completely become a dead zone, all traces forever buried by cosmic dust.

“Do you sense it?” Gu Changge looked calmly into the depths of the ancient star.

Little Hei and Little Bai concentrated their senses, and their expressions immediately darkened.

Deep within the ancient star's core earth pulse, they detected a hidden and evil devouring force slowly operating, like a maggot in the bone, continuously drawing the last Origin from this ancient star.

But what shocked them even more was that the Formation's tendrils extended far beyond this—with the ancient star as its core node, it had silently spread throughout the entire Star Domain!

Countless energy Veins, as fine as silk threads, extended like a spiderweb in all directions into the Void Realm, greedily drawing the remaining life force from nearby stars, not even sparing the asteroid belts floating in space!

The reason this Star Domain was so desolate was precisely because the Origin power of all the stars was continuously being drawn away by this hidden Formation!

“What a vicious method!” the Little White Dragon's voice was cold.

“Hiding the Formation deep within the ancient star, devouring the Origin of the entire Star Domain. If we hadn't come here ourselves, it would have been impossible to detect!”

Gu Changge nodded slightly. Many more similar nodes were scattered throughout the entire Xuanhuang Great World.

He pointed his fingers like a sword and made a sweeping gesture at the ancient star.

“Chiii—”

An invisible Sword Qi crossed the Star Domain and accurately struck the core of the Formation.

The devouring Veins spread throughout the entire Star Domain snapped in response, and the forcibly extracted Origin power immediately lost its direction, slowly dispersing in the Star Domain.

With the destruction of the Formation, although this desolate Star Domain could not immediately recover its vitality, the suffocating decline finally stopped.

It was as if a dying patient had finally had the most fatal poison tube removed from his body.
