276: Chapter 274: Sowing discord

When the Dao of a world is invaded, the heroes born between heaven and earth will be marked by Gu Shengge, which will provide great convenience for his subsequent rule.

Of course, this assumes their World Lord doesn't seek death by absorbing the power of the entire world to deal with him; in that case, those heroes, living beings, and even the entire Realm would be destroyed.

While Gu Shengge was sensing with his eyes closed, his expression shifted slightly. At this moment, someone had actually crossed the World Barrier to enter the Yuntian Realm, which was somewhat strange.

Moreover, their Realms were not weak; they were all experts of the Hedao Realm.

Gu Shengge thought for a moment and understood. These people were likely the World Lords of the other Three Realms, gathering here now presumably to deal with him.

"Have they finally united? Interesting..."

He had not yet entered the Yuntian Realm. Since they had arrived so early, it wouldn't hurt to let them wait for a few more days.

Within the Yuntian Realm, the three World Lords landed in the Immortal Palace. Once they reached the ground, Hong Xuzi immediately stepped forward to greet them.

Of the three World Lords, one was an old man with completely white hair and beard; one was a Cultivator of an unknown race with a purple body and a pair of antlers on his head; and the last one had blond hair, blue eyes, and a high nose bridge, looking vastly different from other members of the Human Race.

After landing, their gazes fell upon Mo Jie in unison, all with scrutinizing looks.

Mo Jie did not shy away and scrutinized them in return.

The white-haired old man said coldly, "Mo Jie, I am Zhou Xiao. Among those who sent you to be made into a Law Corpse back then was my ancestor."

Mo Jie merely smiled indifferently. "Past grudges need not be mentioned! What we need to do now is unite our strengths and deal with Gu Shengge together!"

The old man, Zhou Xiao, nodded slightly. "It seems you really can control your temper now, being able to endure hearing such words."

The two World Lords beside him swept a cold glance over him before withdrawing their gazes; their resentment towards Mo Jie could not be erased so quickly.

The next day, Duan Wuya also emerged from seclusion. He had completely recovered his Divine Soul and Physical Body, appearing as if he had returned to his Peak.

He bowed gratefully to Hong Xuzi with cupped hands. "Fellow Daoist Hong Xuzi, your kindness to me is like giving me a new life! Thank you!"

Hong Xuzi waved his hand. "I wasn't saving you, but saving myself, so there's no need for such formalities."

Hong Xuzi led everyone to a meeting room. There were six people in total, all at the Hedao Realm.

When they sat there, their terrifying pressure was released invisibly, boundless and horrific.

Zhou Xiao asked in confusion, "Fellow Daoist Hong Xuzi, why haven't I seen a single Disciple of your Yuntian Dao Palace?"

Hearing this, Mo Jie also looked at him in confusion.

He had been at the Yuntian Dao Palace for a long time, yet he had never seen a Disciple of the palace; it was indeed very strange.

Pain and struggle filled Hong Xuzi's eyes. "Ten years ago, they wanted to change the Yuntian Dao Palace's expansion plan. In my fury, I heavily injured the Palace Master at the time. Then the entire Yuntian Dao Palace rebelled. After a bloody battle, I personally slaughtered the Dao Palace, which is how it became what it is today."

Everyone's expression changed upon hearing this. They hadn't expected the Yuntian Dao Palace to have such a past.

The key point was that this Hong Xuzi appeared so kind on the surface, yet his actions were truly ruthless. Judging by the current state of the Yuntian Dao Palace, he had likely killed every single Cultivator in the entire palace back then.

Otherwise, the Yuntian Dao Palace wouldn't still be without a single soul.

Zhou Xiao asked in confusion, "Then doesn't Fellow Daoist Hong Xuzi think about rebuilding the Yuntian Dao Palace? After all, those who betrayed you are already dead. If you rebuild it, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Hong Xuzi's face was full of bitterness. "No. If I rebuild it, can I guarantee they won't betray me in the future? I can be alone; it's fine!"

After talking, the group finally grew a bit closer.

They already had a general plan to deal with Gu Shengge and were just waiting for him to arrive in the Yuntian Realm.

Mo Jie was the one looking forward to it the most. Although he had recovered his strength, the Divine Soul Imprint on him had never been removed, which was a problem.

Now that everyone was united, he was seventy percent sure they could kill Gu Shengge. When that happened, the Divine Soul Imprint on him would turn to smoke and vanish completely along with Gu Shengge's death!

However, they waited for several months but still saw no sign of Gu Shengge.

This made everyone somewhat irritable, and their anticipation and Battle Intent gradually weakened.

Duan Wuya said with a cold face, "That fellow Gu Shengge chased us extremely closely before. He would follow almost as soon as we reached a Realm. Except for that time he made a Breakthrough, he has always arrived very promptly. This current situation is truly strange."

Zhou Xiao asked in confusion, "Could it be that he has already entered the Yuntian Realm and we just haven't noticed?"

Mo Jie, who was nearby, shook his head. "Impossible. If he entered the Yuntian Realm, I would definitely sense it. But there is no movement from him now; he definitely hasn't come in!"

Everyone could only continue waiting. Mo Jie began his Formation Plate creation. As long as his connection with Gu Shengge wasn't broken and the Divine Soul Imprint in his body was still flickering, he would surely be able to find Gu Shengge through the Formation Plate.

After being busy for a month, he finally built a massive Formation Plate. This time, it was modified based on the previous one to prevent it from exploding directly like the one with Tian Yusong.

He activated the Formation Plate, and the runes on it flickered. After he dripped blood onto it, the divine light on the Formation Plate intensified. Terrifying energy light shone, absorbing surrounding energy and merging it into itself.

More than an hour later, a dazzling divine light erupted from the Formation Plate, forming a Light Screen. It showed the vast and boundless Chaos space, outside the World Barrier.

There, a figure sat cross-legged, with Great Dao Runes flickering on his body.

The moment the Light Screen expanded, that figure also opened his eyes; it was Gu Shengge.

Seeing Mo Jie, a smile immediately appeared on his face. "How is it, Mo Jie? Have you already infiltrated the enemy's ranks? Do they have any plans?"

Mo Jie, who had been staring at Gu Shengge with a cold expression, suddenly changed face. He hurriedly looked at his companions and said to them, "I... I didn't!"

Duan Wuya and Hong Xuzi trusted him quite a bit and remained calm.

However, the other three World Lords didn't think so. They stared at him with dark expressions, being very wary of him.

Hong Xuzi quickly stepped in to mediate. "Fellow Daoist Mo Jie hates Gu Shengge the most; he would never become Gu Shengge's lackey. Everyone, please rest assured. I will guarantee it with my life!"

Only then did the expressions of the three World Lords soften, and their hostility towards Mo Jie gradually receded.
