326: Today, everyone will die
“How lively.”
Stepping out of Wangyue Peak, ten Profound Gods stood in the sky, surrounded by laws, their might pressureing heaven and earth, like peerless deities.
Countless geniuses looked down at Gu Qing from above.
Even the servant disciples had come.
Almost everyone who could come had come, just to witness with their own eyes the demeanor of Gu Qing, who had astonished the Immortal Realm for countless ages.
After all, Gu Qing was a legendary genius, a true Immortal Emperor Dao Seed, already recorded in history.
Not seeing Gu Qing would be a lifelong regret.
Hundreds of thousands of people gathered, their momentum vast, their killing intent immense, converging into a towering force of slaughter.
Facing such a grand array, Gu Qing showed no fear, letting out a light chuckle.
“Junior Brother, this…” Xingyue’s face paled, and she instinctively grabbed Gu Qing’s hand, wanting to take him back to Wangyue Peak.
With her master there, Gu Qing would be safe.
Because her master was not a Profound God at all.
“Young Master Gu.”
Hong Lan and the other four stood in front of Gu Qing, releasing their power.
This was the young master who could suppress their eldest miss; he absolutely could not be harmed.
“Just a bunch of chickens and dogs.”
Gu Qing pushed the four aside and stood at the front!
It was good that these people had come; he could take them all out at once, saving him the trouble of killing them one by one.
“So strong, as expected of one of the only two geniuses to reach the top of the Starlight Avenue.”
Seeing Gu Qing step forward, his aura swallowing mountains and rivers like a tiger, he seemed like a deity dominating the universe.
Everyone’s eyes were filled with jealousy.
They had cultivated for countless years, endured countless hardships, yet they were not even a fraction of Gu Qing.
Just the aura emanating from him made their hearts fill with great terror, showing how powerful Gu Qing’s strength was.
How good would it be if they also had Gu Qing’s talent?
Then they wouldn't have to humbly respect their teachers, risk their lives in secret realms for a bit of resources, or even do sect missions.
Furthermore… the goddesses they longed for, power, and status would all be within reach, and they would become long-lived Freeloader overlooking the ages.
“Xingyue, your master is insane, are you following her into madness too?”
“Go back quickly. I will pretend none of this happened, and you will still be the Saintess.”
Kong Jiansheng directly ignored Gu Qing’s arrogant words; a dead man was not worth his consideration.
He roared in anger, his gaze at Xingyue filled with the disappointment of seeing potential wasted.
If it were the old Xingyue, choosing to follow Gu Qing, he would not have said a single word of nonsense.
He would have directly killed her.
A mere Saintess, their Star Dao Sect never lacked talented and monstrous heavenly daughters.
But ever since Xingyue injured Jun Lintian with an axe, astonishing everyone.
Xingyue must have obtained an astonishing inheritance; this was a genius with the potential of an Immortal King.
He was unwilling to let such a promising talent perish just like that.
“I like Junior Brother, and I will live and die with Junior Brother.”
Xingyue’s tone was firm, standing beside Gu Qing, her immortal dress fluttering, her beautiful hair flying.
Her face glowed with radiant beauty, exquisite beyond compare, her heroic bearing like a goddess of war.
“You’re absolutely insane.”
Kong Jiansheng was furious, roaring: “It was the sect that gave you everything you have now. For a man, are you going to betray the Star Lineage and be ungrateful?”
Gu Qing heard this and looked at Xingyue curiously, wanting to know how Xingyue would answer.
Xingyue’s eyes were unmoving, clear and bright, and she said lightly: “It was Master who gave me everything. It was Master who brought me back to the sect, raised me, taught me to read and write, and passed on the Dao and divine powers to me.”
“As for the sect, it’s just the survival of the fittest, where the strong prevail.”
“We are all disciples and grand-disciples of the Starry Sacred Mother. We all inherit the legacy of the Starry Sacred Mother. How can there be any talk of betraying the Star Lineage?”
From beginning to end, she did not think there was anything wrong with Gu Qing contending for the Star Lineage.
And from beginning to end, she did not consider herself and the disciples of the other branches of the sect as companions.
Heaven and earth are vast, and time is merciless.
Everything is just for becoming stronger, for power and status, for transcendence, for eternal freedom.
For this, one can strive by any means necessary.
She was, the sect disciples were, and the elders were too.
Just like how the Immortal Realm Star Lineage wanted to exterminate the Lower Realm Star Lineage.
If one day her lineage fell into decline, the first to persecute them would definitely not be outsiders, but fellow disciples.
No one didn’t want their family’s Dao fruit, heavenly treasures, magic weapons, cultivation techniques, secret arts… “Good, good, good! You and your master are both lunatics.” Kong Jiansheng laughed in extreme anger.
“Old man, you’re the one who’s insane.”
Gu Qing was very satisfied with Xingyue’s answer; she was ruthless and decisive, just the type he liked.
He immediately retorted: “Elder Wang Yue and Senior Sister are deeply righteous. As fellow Star Lineage members, you have split into Upper and Lower Realm Star Lineages, harming Lower Realm cultivators. You are all sinners of the Star Lineage. Today, I will clean up the sect on behalf of the Ancestor.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire place fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked at each other.
Then a cold sneer appeared on their faces.
A mere Heavenly God Realm cultivator also wanted to clean up the sect; they dismissed it as nonsense.
As for Gu Qing’s mention of harming Lower Realm cultivators.
The strong are respected, and it’s just the survival of the fittest.
The Star Dao Sect’s foundation was unfathomable; today, Gu Qing and the Lower Realm Star Lineage would surely perish.
“Gu Qing is too sharp; he doesn’t know how to hide his strength. This calamity is deserved.”
“Indeed, a mere Heavenly God Realm cultivator dares to meddle in such a grand situation. It’s truly unwise.”
“As the saying goes, a wise man submits to circumstances. If I had such good talent, I would definitely join the Immortal Realm Star Lineage.”
Thinking of Gu Qing’s impending demise, everyone’s expressions were filled with schadenfreude.
After Gu Qing’s death, he would only be a figure in history, while they would still be geniuses stirring up the current era.
Kong Jiansheng stroked his beard and smiled, beckoning with a hand, and several disciples appeared before him: “Tell him where you came from, who you are now disciples of, and who the traitors are.”
“We came from the Lower Realm, and now we are disciples of the Great Elder.”
“Gu Qing, your Archaic Starfield lineage is utterly wicked, attempting to split our sect, inviting external enemies to seize sect property, killing sect disciples…”
Several people spoke indignantly, their eyes cold and resentful as they looked at Gu Qing.
Each recounted the numerous crimes committed by the Archaic lineage in recent years.
Gu Qing looked at the few people with a strange expression, then at the other Lower Realm cultivators.
These people had unstable auras, damaged foundations, and sinister, resentful faces.
Without asking, it was clear that these were the cultivators who had been captured and made into mine slaves.
According to the usual plot, these people should have been rescued by the protagonist, becoming his most loyal supporters, righteous and noble.
At the protagonist’s word, they would not hesitate to go through hell and high water.
But looking at their current state, where was there any moral bottom line left?
They were clearly a group of psychologically twisted individuals who had abandoned everything just to survive.
Gu Qing felt somewhat fortunate.
When Jiang Yu sent him a message asking how to deal with the Lower Realm cultivators who were currently mine slaves.
Gu Qing felt that after being enslaved for countless years, digging in mines where the sun never shone, they would have some psychological problems.
Moreover, their foundations must have been ruined, and trying to help them recover would consume too many rare treasures.
Also, although they were all from the Lower Realm Star Lineage, they were separated by countless planes and universes, and had never even met. To put it bluntly, there was no relationship between them.
Considering various reasons, Gu Qing chose not to interfere, releasing them and freeing them from their lives as mine slaves, which he considered to be the utmost benevolence.
Unexpectedly, these people showed no gratitude, instead biting back, even wishing to kill him.
“Enough!”
Kong Jiansheng stopped their nonsense, looking at Gu Qing with a benevolent expression, and smiled: “Your talent is unparalleled throughout the ages. As long as you hand over your inheritance and become my disciple, I can guarantee you wealth and honor, and a smooth path in cultivation.”
He paused and then added: “Don’t expect You Kui to save you; he can barely protect himself now.”
“Divine King Opening Heaven!”
Gu Qing was too lazy to continue talking nonsense. Today, everyone was going to die.
Infinite visions appeared in his eyes, directly looking into Kong Jiansheng’s soul. The two’s souls seemed to be in the same space.
A towering figure, exuding an ancient and vast aura.
Slowly raised a giant axe.
Kong Jiansheng’s eyes were hollow and dull, his face alternating between smiles and excitement.
Clearly, Kong Jiansheng was trapped in an illusion and couldn’t extricate himself.
As the giant axe fell, Kong Jiansheng let out a shrill scream: “Ah, you shameless brat, you actually ambushed me.”
His soul was split apart. Even if it reformed, the terrifying Axe Dao Divine Power seemed to be embedded in his soul, becoming one with it, and was eroding his soul.
If he hadn’t been a Xuan Shen Peak expert, having lived for countless years with a profound foundation, this axe would have completely killed him.
However, even if Kong Jiansheng’s life was saved, he was crippled. His cultivation was dissipating, and his soul was dissipating.
His entire being was like a deflated ball, his realm plummeting.
“Hiss~”
“Profound God.”
“A Great Dao Divine Power of soul attack.”
The Profound Gods in the sky’s pupils constricted, a chill rising in their hearts, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
They instinctively wanted to escape.
After all, they had endured countless hardships to become Profound Gods, holding a transcendent status and enjoying long life. They did not want to end up like Kong Jiansheng.
“Don’t panic, he’s only one person, we have nine. The advantage is ours.”
Liang Yan steadied his mind and shouted.
Although he said that, his gaze at Gu Qing was like looking at a great terror, his heart filled with uncontrollable fear.
He had originally thought Gu Qing was just an ant that could be crushed at will.
However, they never expected Gu Qing to actually be a Profound God.
Even more terrifying was the Great Dao Divine Power Gu Qing unleashed.
Several people felt their heads were about to explode.
They couldn’t understand what kind of monster Gu Qing was.
“What????”
“He’s a Profound God?”
The numerous geniuses and servant disciples reacted belatedly, becoming even more bewildered.
They even wondered if they had heard wrong.
After all, what could be done in a mere few hundred years?
It wasn’t even enough time to travel a long distance.
Nor was it enough for a Heavenly God Realm cultivator to breakthrough a small realm in seclusion.
Upon reaching the Profound God Realm, taking even a small step forward was even harder than ascending to heaven.
It required comprehending the true essence of laws. If one comprehended, one comprehended. If not, even if one cultivated in seclusion for hundreds of millions of years, the realm would not change in the slightest.
At most, the accumulation of magic power would be profound, and the physique and soul would become stronger.
“Indeed, he is a Profound God.” The Yaoguang Saint Son, hidden in the dark, showed an expression of “as expected.”
Xingyue’s momentum paused, and she stared blankly at Gu Qing.
When did her long-cherished Junior Brother become a Profound God?
“Did this little fellow take my words as just wind in his ears?”
Wang Yue murmured, her delicate body frail, her exquisite face showing a worried expression, like a sickly, melancholic young lady from a noble family, kept in deep chambers.
“Fight, fight, kill all the geniuses of the Star Dao Sect, and see how you get slapped to death by the False Immortal King.” Xi Ling clenched her small hands, thinking secretly.
“All of you, die for me.”
Gu Qing punched out.
Heaven and Earth Killing Fist, killing heaven, killing earth, killing all living beings.
With such immense killing intent here, unleashing the Heaven and Earth Killing Fist would double its power.
The fist print rolled up boundless slaughter, its momentum vast, like surging waves, sweeping across heaven and earth, obliterating all life.
“Rumble!”
The nine Profound Gods made their move.
They blocked the overwhelming punch of slaughter, yet the aftermath of the explosion was still enough to kill cultivators below the Profound God Realm.
In their haste, they only managed to take half of them away.
Blood mist filled the sky, and a tragic killing intent permeated the air.
“You all die for me too.”
Gu Qing spread his hand, and the Chaotic Undying Halberd appeared in his grasp.
Chaos Qi permeated, emanating an unparalleled halberd intent, its sharpness boundless, seemingly capable of severing heaven and earth.
With a casual slash, it stole all colors from heaven and earth.
Everyone lost their senses, their minds blank, their bodies chilling, a great terror of death enveloping their hearts.
“Damn it…”
The nine cursed under their breath, conjuring defensive magic treasures to protect the disciples.
At the same time, they conjured offensive magic treasures, striking towards the boundless halberd blade.
After blocking Gu Qing’s move, everyone looked closely and were greatly alarmed.
Gu Qing had taken the opportunity to impale Kong Jiansheng with his halberd, lifting him up.
“Brat, a wise man submits to circumstances. Don’t make another mistake. You will never know how deep the foundation of my sect truly is.”
Kong Jiansheng gripped the long halberd with both hands, his face contorted in agony, seemingly enduring immense pain, as he spoke with difficulty.
The few Lower Realm cultivators by Kong Jiansheng’s side were terrified and trembling.
