"Smart!"
Gu Changsheng gave her a thumbs up; he liked decisive people like her.
"Snap!"
Gu Changsheng lightly snapped his fingers, and before Houtu could react, she felt a change in her body.
Body?
As soon as this thought arose, Houtu was stunned. For countless years, she had been accustomed to being without a body and had even forgotten what it felt like to have one. But now, Gu Changsheng had only lightly snapped his fingers, and she once again had that long-lost feeling.
"Well... although not as beautiful as my wife, it's not without its merits."
Gu Changsheng sighed.
"Huh?"
Houtu came back to her senses and realized that Gu Changsheng was looking at her, specifically at her chest.
"You..."
Houtu was about to get angry, but seeing Gu Changsheng's eyes were so clear, without even a hint of appreciation, as if the scenery he was seeing was the most ordinary thing, she deflated. At the same time, she felt that Gu Changsheng was really strange, seeming interested in everything, but acting like a lazy bum.
Houtu really didn't know how to express her anger towards this kind of person, or perhaps her anger was just like a child throwing a tantrum in his eyes?
This feeling was very strange. Clearly, the other party's age wasn't even a fraction of hers, but in front of him, she really felt like a little girl, suppressed by him in terms of words, strength, and even attitude.
"Alright, familiarize yourself with your body. Don't use your power recklessly after you go out; the mortal realm can't withstand your torment. I'll go deal with the tumor first."
After speaking, Gu Changsheng disappeared, along with the coffin in the sky.
Houtu stared blankly at the original location of the coffin, feeling the power coming from her body, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Originally, she thought that even if she was reborn, she would only retain the power of her consciousness, but now, her rebirth retained the strength of her peak period.
The Breaking Dao Realm... no wonder he told her not to use her power recklessly. This world really couldn't withstand her torment.
"I wonder how strong his disciples are, that he needs to find a Breaking Dao Realm expert to be a protector. If he's traveling through the myriad realms, he must at least be a True Immortal. He's so strong; his disciple must be strong too, at least a Celestial King, right?"
Houtu was currently imagining Honghong's strength, but she didn't know that Honghong was only just breaking through the Nirvana Realm Second Stage, still a long way from the Transcendent Realm, let alone a True Immortal or Celestial King.
It could only be said that Gu Changsheng really found the right person; the people he found all had a common hobby: they liked to fantasize!
At this time, outside the ancient land of inheritance of the Ancient God Clan, one after another, technologically advanced battleships appeared. Each battleship was equivalent to a Saint Weapon, and the most terrifying thing about these battleships was that they only needed enough Source Crystals to unleash their maximum power. In other words, these battleships were equivalent to a Saint holding a Saint Weapon, and destroying a star system was an easy task.
"Finally, I'm back here again!"
On the main ship, the Qian Saint Ancestor, who had transformed his body into a machine, sighed.
"Ancestor, there's someone ahead!" At this moment, someone reported to him.
"Kill him!"
The Qian Saint Ancestor said indifferently. Every day, he needed to absorb the souls of newborn infants to replenish the origin of his divine soul. Killing people was already commonplace.
"Ancestor, we can't kill him!"
Before long, the man returned to report.
"Can't kill him? Can't you use the Star Destroyer Cannon?"
The Qian Saint Ancestor's voice was displeased. The Star Destroyer Cannon was the battleship's highest-level weapon. One shot could shatter a star, comparable to a Saint's strike.
"We used it, but the other party... is unscathed!"
The man was almost crying. He had watched as the Star Destroyer Cannon hit the other party. Not only was he unharmed, but even his clothes weren't dirtied.
"What?"
The Qian Saint Ancestor raised his voice. With his mechanical body, his voice was already unpleasant. Raising his voice made him sound like a duck, sharp and grating.
"Ancestor, you... should go see for yourself."
"Waste!"
The Qian Saint Ancestor snorted coldly, and with a flash, he disappeared.
When the Qian Saint Ancestor arrived in front of the fleet, he saw a young man in a green robe blocking the fleet's advance.
The Qian Saint Ancestor said coldly, "Who are you? How dare you block my Ziwei Holy Land's path?"
Gu Changsheng shifted his gaze from the battleships to the Qian Saint Ancestor, and his face immediately turned cold.
Who was Gu Changsheng? He could see through the Qian Saint Ancestor's background at a glance. If the Qian Saint Ancestor had only transformed his body into a machine, he wouldn't have cared, but the Qian Saint Ancestor was filled with the resentment of human infants, which made him very angry.
"After so many years, you're the first one to make me angry... tumor."
Gu Changsheng's tone was calm, but beneath the calmness was a flame of anger. The last time he was angry was during a dark turmoil hundreds of thousands of years ago, and the result of his anger was that eight Supreme beings who launched the dark turmoil were slapped to death by him.
"It seems that the Ziwei Holy Land needs to be cleaned up properly."
Gu Changsheng's eyes revealed a strange light. At this moment, he suddenly had the idea of making a comeback.
"Bold! How dare you insult my Ziwei Holy Land? You're courting death!"
The Qian Saint Ancestor clearly didn't know the importance of the situation. Hearing Gu Changsheng say he was going to settle accounts with the Ziwei Holy Land, he was enraged. With a wave of his hand, the power of a Saint erupted, and he went all out.
This small world was very solid and could withstand a high upper limit of power, so the Qian Saint Ancestor wasn't afraid of damaging it. On the contrary, he had heard earlier that the Star Destroyer Cannon couldn't harm the other party at all, so he used all his strength from the start.
"Rumble!"
The power of a Great Saint at its peak was fully displayed. The terrifying pressure distorted the space, and the battleships behind the Qian Saint Ancestor retreated far away, building a shield to prevent being caught in the crossfire.
"Die!"
The Qian Saint Ancestor roared, and a huge spirit energy palm appeared in the sky, carrying a destructive aura as it slapped towards Gu Changsheng.
But before the huge spirit energy palm could get close to Gu Changsheng, it disappeared without a trace.
"How is that possible?"
The Qian Saint Ancestor's face was horrified. Even if the other party was a strong expert, this shouldn't be happening. But he didn't know that this was Gu Changsheng's Myriad Laws Immunity. The difference in the life level between the two sides was too great. How could a low-dimensional being harm a high-dimensional being?
The Qian Saint Ancestor didn't give up and continuously slapped out several palms at Gu Changsheng. The terrifying palm force tore through the space and attacked Gu Changsheng, but the result didn't change. After reaching a certain distance, it disappeared without a trace.
"How can this be?"
The Qian Saint Ancestor was dumbfounded, and the people in the fleet behind him were also dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
"How can someone who only thinks about unorthodox methods understand my existence?" Gu Changsheng's voice was icy cold.
"Who are you?" The Qian Saint Ancestor asked again.
"Who am I? Hahahaha..."
"Millions of years ago, the human race called me the Holy Emperor, and the myriad races of the universe respectfully called me the Eternal Life Great Emperor!"
"Human Race Holy Emperor, Eternal Life Great Emperor?"
The Qian Saint Ancestor was stunned, then he shook his head frantically, "Impossible, how can someone live from millions of years ago to now? Don't even think about deceiving me."
"Deceive you? You're not worthy."
Gu Changsheng snorted coldly, then with a wave of his hand, all the battleships behind the Qian Saint Ancestor that were comparable to Saint Weapons were destroyed. The Qian Saint Ancestor's face changed drastically. Even if he was crazy, he now understood that he was no match for the other party.
"Run!"
The Qian Saint Ancestor was very decisive and instantly ran towards the exit of the secret realm.
But Gu Changsheng just waved his hand and imprisoned the Qian Saint Ancestor back.
"You... Holy Emperor, spare my life!"
The Qian Saint Ancestor once again knelt down decisively with a plop, begging Gu Changsheng to let him go. Now he didn't care whether what Gu Changsheng said was true or false. Anyway, as long as he could save his life, he could do anything.
"Oh, what if I let you go back to deal with the Ziwei Holy Land?"
Gu Changsheng asked.
"As long as the Holy Emperor spares me, not to mention the Ziwei Holy Land, even if you ask me to deal with the Gu family, I won't hesitate," the Qian Saint Ancestor immediately said.
"Hehe!"
Gu Changsheng smiled. This person not only transformed his body into a machine, but even his will had changed. The meaning of the existence of immortal forces was to protect the human race from being bullied by other races, but this person from the Ziwei Holy Land not only didn't shoulder the responsibility of protecting the human race, but constantly harmed his own race. Gu Changsheng could feel countless infants' painful wails on him.
"It's my lack of discipline that the human race has produced such a beast like you."
After speaking, Gu Changsheng waved his hand, and the Qian Saint Ancestor's body completely dissipated.
"Wuwuwu..."
Just after the Qian Saint Ancestor fell, a series of eerie and terrifying wails rang out. Wisps of black aura constantly condensed, surrounding Gu Changsheng. These black auras eventually condensed into one infant's wronged soul after another. The infants' faces should have been the purest faces in the world, but now, their faces were like evil ghosts from the Nine Hells, ferocious and terrifying.
"Wuwuwu..."
Countless miserable wails filled this secret realm, and countless ferocious and terrifying ghosts roamed between heaven and earth. Some of them had died more than ten thousand years ago, while others had died today.
Gu Changsheng's face was livid. These were all the wronged souls of newborns who were swallowed by their souls less than a day after they were born and died painfully. And with their souls being swallowed, it was impossible for them to be reincarnated.
"I can't let you die so comfortably."
Gu Changsheng's thoughts moved, and the Qian Saint Ancestor, who had already turned into nothingness, was immediately resurrected. And when the Qian Saint Ancestor was resurrected, countless infant souls in the sky seemed to have found an outlet, and tens of millions of wronged souls frantically surged towards the Qian Saint Ancestor.
"What is this... ah... my divine sea... no, don't come in... ah..."
As countless wronged souls entered the Qian Saint Ancestor's divine sea, the Qian Saint Ancestor screamed in pain, and those wronged souls were now gnawing at his divine sea, making him suffer terribly.
"Please... kill me, kill me..."
The Qian Saint Ancestor frantically begged Gu Changsheng to kill him. At this time, his divine sea was filled with countless wronged souls, and he couldn't even commit suicide.
But Gu Changsheng just watched him coldly, unmoved.
Soon, the Qian Saint Ancestor's divine sea was gnawed clean, and with his divine sea destroyed, the Qian Saint Ancestor couldn't hold on any longer, leaving only a mechanical body, but all signs of life had disappeared.
"Waa waa waa..."
At this moment, the wails of the infant souls turned into cries like those of newborns. Tens of millions of cries were issued together, shaking the heavens and the earth, and even the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers were dimmed at this moment.
Gu Changsheng looked at the wandering infant souls in the sky and said softly, "Go and reincarnate. In the name of the Holy Emperor, I guarantee that you will never encounter this kind of thing again."
The souls in the sky seemed to have heard some kind of guidance and flew in a certain direction, eventually disappearing together into the sky.
But things were clearly not over yet.
Gu Changsheng stepped out and returned to the Gu family.
At this time, Gu Youxian was comprehending the Great Dao. Feeling Gu Changsheng's familiar aura, he opened his eyes and was about to say hello, but found that his grandfather's face was very ugly.
"Grandpa? What's wrong?" Gu Youxian asked cautiously.
"Gu Youxian!" Gu Changsheng said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Gu Youxian's body shook. This was the first time his grandfather had called his name so formally. Clearly, something big was about to happen.
"In the identity of the Human Race Holy Emperor, I order you to lead the attack to suppress the Ziwei Holy Land. Those who dare to resist will be killed without mercy."
Gu Changsheng's killing intent was extraordinary.
"Yes!"
Gu Youxian responded loudly, while his heart was like a storm. He didn't know what the Ziwei Holy Land had done to provoke his grandfather so much, but he didn't ask more. There must be a reason for his grandfather to do so.
"Remember not to harm innocent infants."
Gu Changsheng instructed.
"Okay, Grandpa!"
"Huh?"
Gu Youxian's face changed slightly, and he immediately changed his words: "Understood, Holy Emperor Your Majesty."
Gu Changsheng nodded, then handed a small cauldron to Gu Youxian.
Gu Youxian took the small cauldron, his eyes surprised. If he took out this small cauldron, then his grandfather's identity would no longer be hidden.
"Since it's by the Holy Emperor's order, then there must be a token. The Eternal Life Cauldron is the best proof."
Gu Changsheng said lightly.
"I understand!"
Gu Youxian nodded. He understood that his grandfather, for some reason, didn't want to stand behind the scenes anymore.
Gu Youxian couldn't have imagined that Gu Changsheng had this idea because of a Great Saint Ancestor of the Ziwei Holy Land.
"Go!"
Gu Changsheng waved his hand.
Gu Youxian nodded and went to the Ziwei Holy Land with the Eternal Life Cauldron.
On this day, with the Ziwei Holy Land in the Eastern Region of the Heavenly Desolate Star as the center, the entire universe was in an uproar.
...
