512: The turmoil should end.

From extreme movement to extreme stillness.

From a world-destroying eruption to a silent annihilation.

This massive contrast caused the minds of Xuan Yangzi and the Five Ancestors to go blank, leaving them frozen in their combat stances.

“Pfft...”

As his power suddenly lost its target, Xuan Yangzi's blood and qi surged. He let out a muffled groan, his body swaying before he managed to steady himself.

The light screen formed by the Five Ancestors' Emperor Weapons also flickered wildly due to the loss of opposition, nearly causing a backlash against them.

But they all seemed completely oblivious to it.

Xuan Yangzi's mouth hung open, his pupils shrinking violently as he stared fixedly at the empty Void Realm ahead.

He then looked at the figure still standing quietly, as if he had only done something trivial.

His throat bobbed as he tried to say something, only to find it too dry to make any sound.

Only one thought echoed frantically in his mind:

Pressed out of existence?

Thirteen Supremes who had undergone Ultimate Sublimation joined forces for a single strike, and it was just casually pressed out of existence by Changge?!

“Changge...”

The voice of the eldest Old Ancestor trembled beyond recognition, his aged face filled with unbelievable horror and bewilderment.

They knew Gu Changge was strong.

From the moment he casually produced the Myriad Tribulations Battlefield and the Emperor Realm Puppets, they were certain that Changge had likely already stepped into the Great Emperor Realm.

But they never expected... that being 'strong' and this kind of completely irrational, cognition-shattering strength were two entirely different things!

Thirteen terrifying attacks from those who had reached Ultimate Sublimation and burned everything they had—extinguished with a wave of your hand.

This had completely exceeded their understanding of the words 'Great Emperor'!

The several Old Ancestors looked at each other, seeing the same stormy waves of shock in each other's eyes.

At the same instant Gu Changge's palm pressed down and the auras of the thirteen Supremes were completely annihilated—

In the Xuanhuang Great World, the world-ending pressure that every living being perceived as about to swallow everything came to a screeching halt!

Like a towering tsunami erased by an invisible giant hand before it could hit the shore, the world returned to a deathly silence.

The inhabitants of the Xuanhuang Great World instantly fell into a dazed, unbelievable silence.

What happened?

Where was the attack that could punch through the Universe and cause the Ten Thousand Daos to collapse?

Where were the auras of those dozen or so Great Emperors that had suddenly erupted?

How were they all gone?

Gu Changge's gaze turned toward Xuan Yangzi and the Five Ancestors, who were still in a state of extreme shock.

Seeing that they still maintained that dumbfounded expression, as if their Divine Souls had left their bodies.

He didn't say much, merely giving his sleeve a casual, gentle flick.

A gentle and mellow warm current, containing endless vitality like spring rain, quietly surged into the bodies of Xuan Yangzi and the Five Ancestors.

The minor depletion they suffered from forcibly activating the Emperor Weapons and burning their essence blood, as well as their minds agitated by extreme shock—

Under the nourishment of this warm current, they were instantly restored to their original state.

Gu Changge met their gazes, which were almost frozen on him, and gave a slight nod.

With a faint hint of reassurance, he spoke slowly:

“I have startled the Old Ancestors. Merely a dozen or so self-severed Supremes undergoing Ultimate Sublimation is nothing to worry about.”

Xuan Yangzi subconsciously withdrew his gaze, which had been almost glued to Gu Changge. The corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and his heart was in turmoil:

Nothing to worry about?!

From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the thirteen Forbidden Zone Supremes slumped on the ground, their breaths faint like dying dogs.

He then thought back to those thirteen destructive attacks that could punch through the Universe and make the Ten Thousand Daos wail... was that... nothing to worry about?

Gu Changge stopped paying attention to Xuan Yangzi and spoke softly:

“The turmoil should end!”

Before his voice finished fading, his gaze seemed to inadvertently sweep across the endless Void Realm, looking toward several hidden corners of the Universe that even a Great Emperor's Divine Thought could hardly reach.

The deepest part of the Sea of Reincarnation, and inside the Starry Sky Undying Mountain forbidden zone.

“Those of you hiding your heads and showing your tails, come over as well.”

He sounded as if he were giving a casual order, yet also like he was announcing a final judgment.

Then, he gave a casual wave of his hand toward the endless Void Realm beyond.

There was no grand spectacle, no brilliant divine light; it was as if he were merely brushing away non-existent dust from his sleeve.

However—

“Buzz!”

In the Chaos not far in front of Gu Changge, space rippled violently like water!

In the next instant, three figures emitting decayed, ancient, and utterly astonished and bewildered auras appeared.

They were like being forcibly plucked from their respective nests by an invisible giant hand, stumbling as they manifested in the Void Realm!

One was another ancient Supreme from the Sea of Reincarnation who had been lurking in its deepest depths, thinking he had already stayed out of the matter!

One had a body that seemed cast from divine gold, radiating an undying Dao Rhyme; he came from the Undying Mountain!

The last one had a sky-piercing Evil Qi, as if he had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood; he was also a God of Slaughter sleeping in the Undying Mountain forbidden zone!

These three were the oldest and most cunning Supremes who had not directly participated in the turmoil, believing they were hidden perfectly and even intending to benefit from the aftermath!

At this moment, the eternal indifference and majesty on their faces had completely vanished, replaced by extreme bewilderment, shock, and incomprehensible horror!

“What is going on?!”

“This Emperor was just inside the Undying Mountain!”

“This place is the sky outside the Southern Region?! Who is it? Who could forcibly teleport us here?!”

Just a moment ago, they were in the cores of their respective forbidden zones, either calculating heavenly secrets or coldly observing the great battle outside, planning how to profit.

But in that instant, a great power they completely could not understand or resist struck.

It ignored the age-old arrangements of the forbidden zones, ignored the absolute distance of space, and even ignored their Imperial Dao Laws.

It just directly grabbed them from their nests and threw them into the center of this battlefield surrounded by mortal enemies!

This kind of method had completely exceeded their cognition of power!

And when they saw the scene before them, their brief bewilderment was instantly replaced by boundless fear!

The thirteen ancient Supremes slumped on the ground, their breaths faint... the Golden Crow Ancient Emperor and Ancient Emperor Lei Peng being held in hand like dead dogs... and that young man standing quietly in the Void Realm, his clothes fluttering, watching them with a calm gaze.

Add to that the surrounding tiger-like glares of the Jimie Great Emperor, Golden-Winged Peng Emperor, Xing Tianao, Xuan Yangzi, and those eight Puppets radiating cold Emperor Might...
