After an earth-shattering, awe-inspiring explosion.

The entire Zixiao Palace, including the surrounding mountains and magnificent buildings, looked as if it had been slapped flat by a giant hand.

It was instantly reduced to ruins.

The once magnificent palaces, pavilions, terraces, and waterside buildings have all vanished without a trace, leaving only an empty void.

In this void.

There are also bottomless black holes scattered around, emitting wisps of black mist.

These bottomless black holes look as if they have been carved out of the void, creating a series of pits and craters, which is quite eerie.

The black currents emanating from these bottomless black holes appear calm, yet they contain an aura of endless annihilation!

This aura instilled a deep sense of fear in people!

These black holes are created by spatial annihilation; their existence is like that of black holes in the universe, possessing a powerful devouring force.

Anything that gets close to them will be devoured in an instant.

Once swallowed.

It was like falling into a bottomless abyss, forever trapped in endless darkness.

This situation is worse than death.

It can be said that within a hundred miles of the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace, no cultivator dares to approach this place.

Even the disciples of Hongmeng Heavenly Palace were immediately evacuated to other safe places by the elders within Hongmeng Heavenly Palace.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Palace was extremely large!

The area occupied by Zixiao Palace alone is more than three times that of the Heavenly Court of the Primordial Immortal Realm, and may even be more expansive.

Therefore, although the battle between Gu Xuan and Hongjun Laozu was extremely fierce, their fighting range was still limited to the interior of Zixiao Palace.

But at this moment, in the earth-shattering clash between Gu Xuan and Hongjun Ancestor, these two supreme beings.

Zixiao Palace, which was once the Primordial Divine Realm.

It is a sacred cultivation ground that cultivators throughout the three thousand worlds of the Xuanhuang Universe dream of.

Countless powerful beings at the Heavenly Realm and Dao Realm levels in the Xuanhuang Universe all listened to Ancestor Hongjun preach from here.

Thus, one can achieve enlightenment in a single day and attain the supreme path to immortality.

Now, it has instantly turned into nothingness!

This could even lead to a situation within this range.

Everything was destroyed, not a blade of grass grew, and all living things died!

Such terrifying power.

This is something that no ordinary cultivator could withstand!

In order to protect the legacy of the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace, the elders acted decisively and took emergency measures.

They quickly evacuated all the disciples from the Heavenly Palace to avoid greater casualties and losses.

After all, the tens of thousands of servants, over ten thousand elite disciples, and numerous elders within Zixiao Palace serve as a cautionary tale.

They have become casualties of this battle.

........

In nothingness.

There was only chaos, without a trace of light.

In this endless darkness, Gu Xuan and Hongjun Laozu faced each other from afar, their figures appearing and disappearing in the darkness.

Despite being far apart, the aura emanating from the two was like an invisible torrent.

It surged and churned in this void.

That terrifying pressure seemed capable of tearing the entire universe apart.

With a smile on his face, Hongjun Laozu appeared "approachable" and called out to Gu Xuan opposite him: "Fellow Daoist, you and I have both reached such a realm that we are already the number one under the rules in this Xuanhuang Universe."

"Our strengths are evenly matched, and neither of us can defeat the other. Why don't we each take a step back and turn hostility into friendship?"

Upon hearing this...

Gu Xuan sneered, his voice icy and full of contempt: "Turning hostility into friendship? You old fool, aren't you overthinking it!"

"As for your claim that I can't hurt you? I doubt it!"

At this point, Gu Xuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, and he continued, "Have you forgotten the lesson you learned last time, you old senile fool?"

"........"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun Laozu's expression changed slightly, as if he had recalled some unpleasant memories.

The next second.

His eyes, like those of a hawk, suddenly fixed intently on Gu Xuan, his gaze like two bolts of lightning piercing straight through Gu Xuan's body.

"That day, it was you..."

Hongjun Laozu's voice was slightly low, seemingly containing endless anger and shock!

But before Hongjun could finish speaking...

Gu Xuan suddenly burst into wild laughter, the sound deafening and echoing throughout the land.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"That's right, it's me!"

"Surprised?! Unexpected?!"

Gu Xuan's laughter was filled with disdain and mockery.

After laughing, his words were like a sharp sword, piercing straight to the heart of Hongjun Ancestor: "Today, you, Hongjun, will surely die!"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Xuan stopped arguing.

He knew that time was of the essence, and the system's invincible state had entered a 41-second countdown.

If Hongjun Laozu cannot be killed within this limited time, it will inevitably bring endless trouble to himself in the future.

As the saying goes, "If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back in the spring breeze!"

Gu Xuan would absolutely not give Hongjun Ancestor any chance to breathe, otherwise he himself would be the one to die.

Without hesitation, Gu Xuan activated his Pangu Chaos Body!

A layer of chaotic energy emanated from his body, an aura that seemed to come from ancient times, filled with boundless power and pressure.

Gu Xuan decided to use the purest rules of power to completely annihilate Hongjun Ancestor in one fell swoop!

In an instant.

A powerful, suffocating aura of chaos.

Like a volcanic eruption, it instantly surged from Gu Xuan's body—

This aura is like the primordial chaos at the beginning of the universe.

With boundless pressure and an aura of destruction, it instantly swept across the entire space!

At the same time, Gu Xuan's physical body seemed to be ignited by this chaotic aura, and suddenly began to expand violently.

His muscles, bones, and meridians were expanding at an astonishing rate...

Its body, originally of normal size, grew to be as huge as a mountain in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, this expansion showed no signs of stopping; Gu Xuan's body continued to grow, hundreds of feet, thousands of feet, tens of thousands of feet...

His body grew larger and larger, as if there was no end in sight.

Finally, when his body reached a height of ten thousand feet, the growth trend slowly stopped.

At this moment, Gu Xuan was like a giant standing tall and firm.

His body was so enormous that it resembled a deathly peak that no one dared to cross.

So much so that all the cultivators in the entire Hongmeng Divine Realm could clearly see Gu Xuan's enormous and despair-inducing figure.

His existence was like that of an incomparably powerful ancient god from the primordial chaos.

It gives people an endless sense of oppression and awe!
