610: Food chain of the continent of origin

The Time-Space Shuttle passed through the boundless mountain range.

Following Youmeng's coordinates, Gu Qing only took three days to arrive at the Limitless Secret Realm.

Putting away the Time-Space Shuttle, Gu Qing tidied himself up.

He wore a green robe, his long hair casually pinned with a wooden hairpin, and a jade pendant hung from his waist.

He appeared elegant and unrestrained, like a noble young master traveling through the mortal world.

Gu Qing thought for a moment, always feeling like something was missing.

"It's a folding fan."

"How can an unparalleled young master be without a folding fan?" Youmeng prompted.

"Right, right, right."

Gu Qing nodded slightly, immediately activating the "Creation from Nothing" meditation method, imagining an exquisite and profound folding fan.

In an instant, a void space appeared in his mind, and the magical power and divine power within his body surged into the void space like a flood.

In the void space, there was no time or space; everything was static.

Only the magical power and divine soul power flowed, evolved, and nurtured the folding fan Gu Qing desired.

During the meditation process, it felt as if countless years had passed, yet also as if only an instant had gone by, and Gu Qing meditated a first-order Immortal Emperor artifact into existence.

His magical power and divine soul power were depleted by one ten-thousandth.

Don't think this is a small amount; in reality, it was frighteningly vast.

After all, Gu Qing cultivated the Chaotic Immeasurable Great Dao and had been consuming Chaotic Origin Fluid.

Gu Qing's divine soul and magical power were immeasurable, hundreds of thousands of times greater than those of his peers.

Gu Qing circulated the Chaos Immortal Scripture, refining the Chaotic Origin Fluid stored within his body, and within a few breaths, he recovered completely... The Limitless Secret Realm is an open secret realm, facing the entire Origin Continent, and does not belong to any single power.

Moreover, the Limitless Secret Realm has more than one entrance; no one can accurately count how many there are.

However, each time the Limitless Secret Realm opens, it is controlled by the nearby super Dao Lineages.

To enter, one must pay some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, or innate spirit crystals.

This entrance is close to Jadeflower Dao Province, and thus is controlled by the Celestial Venerable Dynasty, Heavenly Wind Sect, and Heavenly Sword Sect.

To enter, one must pay ten thousand innate spirit crystals, or equivalent treasures.

This is an exorbitant price, a huge sum for many Transcendent, difficult to gather.

Hundreds of thousands of people stood at the entrance of the Limitless Secret Realm, queuing, their faces showing pain as they haggled with the guards.

After all, they couldn't produce that many innate spirit crystals and could only use other treasures as substitutes.

"Alas, no matter where I go, there's no shortage of roadblocks," Gu Qing grumbled, puzzled.

He had already arrived at the Origin Continent, yet he still couldn't avoid being blocked and exploited.

"You don't have to pay. Anyway, you've already slaughtered their successors, so killing a few more dozen people won't matter," Youmeng said.

"Hmm, that's exactly what I intended."

After all, many debts don't weigh one down; killing a few dozen God Kings, three First-level God Emperors, and three Sixth-level God Emperors wouldn't affect the impression these three super Dao Lineages had of him in the slightest.

Gu Qing fanned himself, strolling through the void, graceful and handsome like an unparalleled deity.

"Stop!"

The three First-level God Emperors leading the group saw Gu Qing's calm demeanor, completely disregarding them, and one of them shouted sharply.

The three had cold expressions, their eyes glinting with a frosty light.

This was the first time they had seen someone dare to ignore the Celestial Venerable Dynasty, Heavenly Wind Sect, and Heavenly Sword Sect.

Although they knew Gu Qing was a Seventh-level Transcendent, so what?

Their three super Dao Lineages weren't without Seventh-level experts; they even had several Heavenly Dao Realm existences.

These were Heaven-Transforming level beings, whose Dao was the Heavenly Dao, omniscient and omnipotent with a single thought, knowing the past and foreseeing the future.

Even a Saint would have to tread carefully in front of them.

Thinking of a Saint passing beneath them, the three's expressions grew even more arrogant, secretly pleased, as they looked down upon Gu Qing from above.

"Tsk!"

Gu Qing tsked, fanning himself with an unconcerned attitude, and walked straight towards the secret realm passage.

As for the icy gazes of these people, he ignored them.

Why should a true dragon of the Nine Heavens care about the thoughts of ants on the ground?

As Gu Qing's thought arose, he took control of everything belonging to these people, causing them to self-immolate.

The saying "All below a Saint are ants" is absolutely not just talk.

A Saint can control everything below a Saint.

"Ah..."

Seeing Gu Qing unmoved, everyone immediately became furious.

Even the three Sixth-level God Emperors sitting high in the sky were enraged.

However, before they could act, their bodies were restrained by a powerful force, and then a ball of fierce fire erupted from them.

This fierce fire seemed to burn within their flesh, within their magical power, within their divine souls.

It was their own bodies uncontrollably self-immolating.

Pain, such intense pain!

Everyone's faces were contorted, emitting horrific wails.

"Saint..."

"Senior, spare us..."

The three Sixth-level God Emperors, who had been high above everyone, looked terrified, with a hint of confusion.

They were successors of twelve-star powers; how could Gu Qing dare to kill them?

Cultivation was not easy; wasn't Gu Qing afraid of retaliation?

Everyone knew they had hit a steel plate, encountering someone truly unafraid of death, or rather, Gu Qing's background was even more powerful than theirs.

The so-called background refers not only to talent, comprehension, luck, fate, merit, and fortune, but also to origin, backing, and so on.

The Origin Continent has a complete food chain, a hierarchy of disdain.

Chaos Dominator God Dao Lineages can dominate the Origin Continent, the boundless Dao Province.

Heavenly Dao Realm Dao Lineages govern Dao Provinces, their decrees like the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao.

Transcendent Realm: all below a Saint are ants.

Therefore, the Origin Continent places immense importance on background; the strong can dominate everything about the weak.

The strength of one's background almost determines a person's upper limit.

At this thought, the three looked horrified, all turning their heads to look at the figure surrounded by divine light in the void: "Please, fellow Daoist, lend a hand; we will be eternally grateful."

The spell cast upon them by the Saint could only be undone by a Saint.

Otherwise, in less than half an hour, they would be burned to ashes.

"Heh heh." He sneered inwardly, indifferently watching these ants self-immolate.

Mere ants dared to call him a fellow Daoist.

And ask for help?

Simply preposterous.

The Celestial Venerable Dynasty, Heavenly Wind Sect, and Heavenly Sword Sect had become increasingly arrogant over the years.

Even ants dared to despise Saints, finding pleasure in humiliating them.

Like these three.

They fantasized about a Saint passing beneath their feet; did they want to step on a Saint?

If not for his apprehension of Heavenly Dao Realm mighty figures, he would have acted long ago, extracting the divine souls of these ants and burning them for endless years, unable to live or die.

He couldn't act, but there were plenty of Saints who dared to.

The waters of Mount Wuliang run very deep.

Who knows how many Chaos Dominator Gods are in seclusion here, and who knows how many Chaos Dominator God successors are training on Mount Wuliang.

He knew that these ants would inevitably face a calamity, and thus he had been waiting here.

Sure enough, a tough nut to crack appeared.

"No... Senior, save me."

"It was our arrogance and ignorance; please, Senior, save our lives."

"Senior, save us..."

The three finally realized how ridiculously wrong their idea of being above a Saint was.

Their sects were indeed powerful, but the strength of their sects did not mean they were also strong.

Without power, they were ultimately just paper tigers.

"What's going on?"

Luo Li's flying boat quietly arrived, and out stepped a tall, armored young man with a cold expression.

His aura was terrifying, exuding a monstrous murderous presence, his blood-red killing intent solidified, as if a God of Slaughter had walked out of a battlefield.
