588: Blood Sacrifice to the Three Thousand Universes

Boom!

After devouring seventy-six Immortal Emperors, the Gui Xu Sword's power became indescribably terrifying, with a single wisp of its sword might destroying countless Universes.

"Disciple, wake up! Quickly refine the Gui Xu Sword to prevent it from losing control."

Star Mother's gentle voice resonated in Gu Qing's mind.

The Gui Xu Sword was too Heaven-Defying; each advancement was a sublimation and a transformation to the extreme.

It needed to be re-refined, otherwise there was a risk of losing control.

Moreover, the refining process carried a significant risk of backlash.

"Okay!" The first thing Gu Qing did upon waking was glance at the Gui Xu Sword, and his heart was startled.

He had only Cultivated for a bit, so how had the Gui Xu Sword's power increased dozens of times?

Even he, its master, felt a tremor in his heart and a stinging in his Divine Soul upon seeing it.

What exactly had Star Mother done to the Gui Xu Sword?

A thought flashed through his mind, and Gu Qing dared not delay, hastily unleashing his protective Divine Ability, arriving before the Gui Xu Sword, and performing a secret art, refining it with his essence blood and his own Great Dao.

Essence blood and immeasurable Great Dao Laws poured into the Gui Xu Sword like an inverted sea.

Fortunately, Gu Qing's physique was formidable, and his immeasurable Great Dao's creation was limitless.

Gu Qing only needed to circulate his Cultivation Technique to refine the Chaos primal liquid, and his lost essence blood and Dao fruit could be immediately replenished.

If it were anyone else, they would likely be drained into a husk in an instant.

A year's time quietly flowed by.

The Gui Xu Sword was finally refined, advancing to become a truly complete Heaven-Devouring Weapon.

The Gui Xu Sword merged with the Universe's rules, silently devouring the Universe and turning it into nothingness.

"Hoo!"

Gu Qing let out a long breath, his face pale: "It's finally refined. This truly isn't something a person should do."

Refining the Gui Xu Sword was simply too life-threatening.

Originally, Gu Qing had planned to refine the Chaos Undying Halberd after finishing the Gui Xu Sword.

But now, it seemed he should reconsider.

Refining a single Innate Spirit Treasure for the first time had consumed ten thousand years of his time.

He didn't know how much essence blood, Divine Soul, Dao fruit Laws, and his own Origin had been used.

The subsequent refinements would be equally perilous.

If he were to refine a true Chaos Spirit Treasure, the consequences were unimaginable.

He would likely be drained in an instant.

"Go try out the power of the Gui Xu Sword!" Star Mother looked at Gu Qing's pale face, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes, and said softly.

"Okay!" Gu Qing replied without hesitation.

His original intention in crafting the Heaven-Devouring Weapon was not to have a great killing weapon, but to have the Heaven-Devouring Weapon devour the heavens and all Daos, and then feed back to him.

Whoosh!

Gu Qing cast the Heaven-Devouring Weapon into another Universe plane.

The Gui Xu Sword did not disappoint; the moment it appeared, it merged with the Universe's rules, devouring the Universe's Laws.

The Universe's space and time collapsed in swathes, turning into nothingness, annihilating all living beings.

Soon, the Gui Xu Sword had completely devoured this Universe.

"Gui Xu is not yet saturated, its Origin is not at Perfection; continue to refine Universes."

"Ah, this..."

Gu Qing intended to stop, after all, he had already sacrificed two Great Thousand Universes, and the number of fallen living beings was more than billions of billions.

But seeing Star Mother's nonchalant expression, Gu Qing knew that he was still too young.

Star Mother's indifference gave him a renewed understanding of her.

Or rather, a clearer understanding of powerful beings.

Heaven and earth were treated like straw dogs, let alone all living beings.

Gu Qing took a deep breath and cast the Gui Xu Sword into other Great Thousand Universe planes.

It successively devoured three thousand Great Universes, countless Middle Thousand Universes, and Small Thousand Universes.

He didn't even know how many Immortal Emperors it had devoured.

The Gui Xu Sword finally reached saturation, its Origin achieving Perfection, and it ascended to become a top-tier Innate Spirit Treasure.

It no longer needed to devour Universes and all living beings.

It would only need to devour Universe rules again when it next advanced to a Chaos Spirit Treasure.

"Whoosh!"

The moment the Gui Xu Sword appeared in the Eternal Great Universe, it merged with the Eternal Great Universe's rules, its sword might illuminating all heavens and myriad worlds, transcending all Daos.

It was as if a Divine Sword hung over the heads of all living beings, Dominating their life and death.

Gu Qing sat cross-legged on the Creation Green Lotus, circulating the Chaos Undying Scripture, his mind connected to the Gui Xu Sword.

The Gui Xu Sword's Dao rhyme fed back into him, causing Gu Qing's Realm to rapidly ascend.

Moreover, because the Gui Xu Sword was a Heaven-Devouring Weapon, it could merge with the rules of heaven and earth.

The Gui Xu Sword could devour Universe Laws and also borrow them, allowing heaven and earth to act as a fetal membrane, nurturing itself. While the Gui Xu Sword advanced, it could also feed back to its master.

Gu Qing sat cross-legged on the Creation Green Lotus, surrounded by immeasurable Chaos Laws, evolving endless profound mysteries. His aura was sacred and inviolable, like an ancient Chaos God.

"This is a truly peerless Magic Treasure..."

Star Mother's eyes burned as she looked at the Gui Xu Sword.

It possessed unparalleled destructive power; anything below the seventh Realm would die upon contact.

It could also assist its master in Cultivating the supreme Great Dao and the supreme killing Dao.

As long as one possessed the Gui Xu Sword, one was destined to become a supreme Chaos Dominator God.

Even if one's Comprehension Ability was lacking, the Gui Xu Sword could carry them to success.

This was the perfect artifact she had always pursued.

However, Star Mother also knew that the Gui Xu Sword's power stemmed mainly from its refining method, secondarily from the Chaos Divine Sword itself, and thirdly from the Great Dao of the refiner.

None of the three could be lacking.

If a different vessel or a different person refined it, although it wouldn't be bad, its power would certainly not be as great as the Gui Xu Sword's.

"It's truly fortunate to have the protection of a supreme existence."

Star Mother's eyes flickered, envy evident in her expression.

She could tell that the residual aura of the Chaos Divine Sword came from the same Origin as Lin Feng's so-called System.

It wasn't hard to guess that Lin Feng was the Chaos Divine Sword's Puppet chosen by the Dominator God, used to upgrade the Chaos Divine Sword.

When the time was ripe, Lin Feng would be used as a sacrifice for the sword.

However, the Chaos Divine Sword had become Gu Qing's Magic Treasure, although she didn't know how Gu Qing had managed to seize it.

But if anyone else dared to snatch the Chaos Divine Sword, the System would destroy them without waiting for the Dominator God to descend.

A thought flashed through her mind, and Star Mother shook her head slightly; these matters were not hers to worry about.

She only needed to guide Gu Qing well... "What kind of Magic Treasure is this...?"

Wu Tianyu's eyes, filled with divine light, pierced through space and time, his expression grave as he looked at the Gui Xu Sword's phantom.

Just a phantom of the Divine Sword made him feel immense terror; its power was countless times greater than an Innate Spirit Treasure.

"Merging with the rules of heaven and earth and all Daos, using heaven and earth as a fetal membrane, with unparalleled destructive power..."

Wu Tianyu silently deduced, his expression shifting from grave to utterly chilling.

Just the tip of the iceberg he deduced showed that the Gui Xu Sword's power and wondrous uses surpassed his understanding.

This showed how Heaven-Defying the Gui Xu Sword was.

It was countless times more powerful than the companion Divine Artifacts he knew of, or perhaps the two were simply not on the same level of Magic Treasure.

"Clinging to a powerful patron is indeed a great wisdom." Wu Tianyu sighed inwardly, a surge of unprecedented envy rising in his heart.

He didn't believe that Gu Qing had deduced this refining method himself; he felt it was either taught by Star Mother or Jiang Yu.

Gu Qing, by clinging to the coattails of these two, had directly ascended to the heavens.

Pity him, who had toiled for countless ages, still struggling bitterly, trembling under Gu Qing's oppressive might, constantly on edge.

He feared that Gu Qing would find his true body and reclaim the Myriad Heavens Universe Tower.
