If the other party was really capable, there wouldn't have been any movement for tens of thousands of years.

The Lord of Starry Sky City speculated that the other party was just an unpredictable person, relying on stealing other people's lifespans to survive.

Even he could not escape the opponent's method.

The real purpose of the Starry Sky City Lord accumulating strength is actually to escape from the Ancient Starry Sky Road.

Although he didn't care about the mastermind behind the incident, how could he be willing to have a year of his life taken away every year?

Returning to the spiritual world is what he wants in his heart, but the cultivation level of a Daluo Jinxian is not enough to break the barrier between the two worlds. Only by transcending Daluo can he have a chance of survival.

But He Changsheng was not interested in this way of increasing his lifespan, as he was somewhat of a germaphobe.

Moreover, he is only in his early teens now, and this is just the beginning of his path to immortality. Compared with the hundreds of thousands of years of life he has left, what he has used now is not even a fraction of it.

He Changsheng didn't think any further and prepared to adjust his thinking before starting the simulation!

[This simulation consumes some spiritual power... Current remaining spiritual power:.]

[...You claimed to Jiuying that you had found a way to rescue the other ten demon gods, but it's extremely difficult to do, and if anything goes wrong, you'll be doomed.]

Jiuying was overjoyed when he heard this, and told him to just tell you what he wanted. He would fight to the death, no matter how difficult it was.

[Seeing the time was ripe, you immediately revealed that the Emperor of Heaven's incarnation was still alive and was attempting to use Ao Bing to plot against the demon gods. At this moment, Ao Bing was already within the Ancient Starry Sky Road, brewing a greater conspiracy.]

[The following is a critical moment for your survival. If you cannot find Ao Bing's exact location, not only will you be unable to rescue the other demon gods, but you will also be in danger of losing your own lives.]

Jiuying was immediately horrified. You continued to offer a solution. For the sake of the remaining demon gods' survival, Jiuying decided to accept the proposal to use the Conferred God List to rescue another demon god with the Golden Immortal cultivation level.

Seeing this, He Changsheng's expression relaxed.

As long as the other party agrees, everything that follows will be relatively easy.

He was afraid that Jiuying was a pedantic person who was hesitant and cautious.

In fact, after hearing what he said, the other party really had no choice. Their main concern was that they were restricted by the List of Gods, but it was only one or two demon gods, which was not unacceptable to them.

It's better than being completely wiped out.

He Changsheng was actually taking a gamble this time. If the other party could free Bai Ze by combining the power of the four demon gods, then all his careful calculations would be in vain.

You and Jiuying abducted a Return to Void Stage cultivator and then arrived at the Divine Emperor's Tomb. You informed him that seven sealed stone tablets were trapped within an eight-layer formation, which you could not remove. You could only find Ao Bing and use soul-searching to discover how to break the formation.

[The remaining three sealing stone tablets are located deep within the God Emperor's Tomb and are not trapped by the Eightfold Killing Formation.]

[You signaled the abducted Return to Void stage cultivator to leave his body and enter the Soul Jade. He dared not disobey you and immediately complied.]

You threw the Soul Jade accurately near the sealing stone tablets. The other party immediately listened to your words and mobilized all his spiritual power. After much difficulty, he finally threw all three sealing stone tablets out of the Divine Emperor's Tomb.

Before leaving, you, upholding the spirit of a kind person, gave advice to those near the Divine Emperor's Tomb. You told them to stay put, or they would perish in an instant. Don't blame me for not warning them beforehand; one day, they would have a chance to escape.

[Jiuying easily dispelled the reinforcement restrictions you had placed on the three sealing stone tablets. You learned that the most powerful of the three demon gods was Bai Ze.]

After Jiuying explained the reason to him, Bai Ze decisively agreed. With your conferring of the title, Bai Ze quickly escaped from his predicament.

[...You all arrived at the Ancient Starry Sky Road together, and you placed the River God in the lower realm to secretly protect Bai Miaoyin and He Hansu, while also collecting the power of incense for cultivation.]

[You successfully neutralized the Heavenly Emperor's back-up plan by using the method of consumption.]

[The Star City Lord had been waiting behind the entrance for a long time. Bai Ze had known about this matter in advance, and the moment he saw the other party, he immediately launched an offensive.]

Bai Ze and the Star City Lord were evenly matched in their duel. Seeing this, Jiuying quickly joined in. Although he only slightly disrupted the Star City Lord, he played a crucial role.

[The Lord of Starry Sky City dies. 】

[You have overwhelmed everything with your absolute strength and become the actual controller of the Ancient Starry Sky Road.]

[You instruct Jiuying to gather everyone in the Ancient Starry Sky Road and begin digging deep underground to search for Ao Bing's whereabouts.]

[But the results were disappointing. You explored every corner of the Ancient Starry Sky Road, but still couldn't find Ao Bing's whereabouts.]

He Changsheng frowned. Although this result was within his expectations, Ao Bing would not be killed so easily by him.

But when this actually happened, he was still angrier than ever.

A feeling that all efforts have been in vain.

He Changsheng couldn't help but sigh, "That being the case, there are only two possible outcomes. Either Ao Bing's Chaos Bell has regained some of its divine light, or it's related to the Heavenly Emperor's incarnation."

He actually hoped it was the former. At least the Chaos Bell's divine light was running out, and Ao Bing wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.

But if it is the incarnation of the Emperor of Heaven that is causing trouble, it will be difficult to deal with.

In order to deal with Ao Bing, he had put in countless experiences, and the twists and turns in the process were so bizarre that he felt very sad at the moment.

[Inform Bai Ze and Jiu Ying of your speculation, and instruct them to keep a close eye on any developments on the Ancient Starry Sky Road.]

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. You haven't received any information from Ao Bing, and you are also unable to leave the Ancient Starry Sky Road.

[In addition, even Bai Ze was not immune to the methods used by the mastermind to extract his lifespan.]

[You had no choice but to devote all your energy to cultivating the nameless magical power and using it to absorb the abundant immortal energy from the ancient starry sky road.]

[Over the years, your cultivation has improved, but as time goes by, Bai Ze and Jiu Ying become more and more anxious.]

Bai Ze and Jiu Ying secretly discussed it, deciding they couldn't just sit there and wait for death. So, they carried you on their backs and headed for the Ascension Passage to the Spirit World. However, as soon as they made their move, they were suppressed by the immense power within the Passage, leaving them no chance to resist.

【Bai Ze, died.】

【Jiuying died.】

After you lost the protection of Bai Ze and Jiu Ying, your status in the Ancient Starry Sky Road plummeted. There are even people who dislike you and wish to kill you immediately.

[You knew your situation was not optimistic, so you quietly left the City Lord's Mansion.]
