Unbeknownst to Gu Changqing, at the same time, a Great Sage-level cultivator saw a swift afterimage flash by at the speed of a spaceship, just like the speed of light, disappearing in an instant. He thought it was a hallucination, so unreal.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Changqing crossed the vast sea and arrived in the Central Plains.
Legend has it that the Central Continent is incredibly prosperous, with countless outstanding talents, far surpassing the Eastern Continent in terms of natural resources and human talent. Compared to this, the Eastern Continent is simply too barren and lacking, like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world.
Given Gu Changqing's strength just now, although arriving in Zhongzhou was fast, it wouldn't have been so fast as to arrive in just a few breaths. It has to be said that the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor is truly formidable.
Upon arriving at this place, Gu Changqing saw a huge iron tower soaring into the clouds, from which came the jarring sound of hammering metal.
He glanced at it and immediately muttered, "This place is most likely where weapons are forged. With my intelligence, I shouldn't be mistaken."
Since that's the case, then let's go here.
Thinking this, Gu Changqing descended from the clouds, stepped onto the ground, and landed here.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Gu Changqing saw a huge stone tablet standing in front of the door, with several professional characters written on it.
"Professional weapon crafting, professional gem inlaying, professional rune inlaying—we do everything. If you're not professional, you can cut me down."
"Just as I expected, I really did find it." Gu Changqing said with a smirk, stroking his chin with one hand.
At the same time, I saw a lot of people here, standing in long queues, holding all kinds of crafting materials, colorful and clearly there to forge weapons.
Gu Changqing was immediately shocked. Damn, how come there are so many people? Who knows when it will be his turn?
Knowing that the invasion of the six major demonic sects is getting closer and closer, how could I waste my time here?
Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said loudly:
"Fellow Daoists, it's truly unfortunate. I have urgent business to attend to. Within three breaths, I do not wish to see anyone still lingering in line here. Otherwise, I will kill them without mercy. I'm sure none of you fellow Daoists wish to perish here, do you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room was astonished, and all the people in line looked on incredulously.
Let them go?
Where did this person come from? How can they be so unreasonable?
Are you looking for trouble?
Someone sneered, "Where did this idiot come from, acting so domineeringly? Damn it."
Someone else sneered, "I am a quasi-Immortal Emperor, just one step away from becoming a true Immortal Emperor. How dare he act so arrogantly towards me?" He then burst into laughter.
Upon hearing this, the others were immediately astonished, not expecting that there was a quasi-Immortal Emperor level expert in this group.
Just then, a handsome and distinguished man in a golden robe stepped out and said coldly, "Shut up, all of you. My strength has increased greatly recently, and I'm itching for a fight. Let me teach this idiot a lesson."
Before anyone could reply, he turned to look at Gu Changqing and said coldly, "Who do you think you are? Try being arrogant again!" With that, he flicked his sleeve and unleashed his full power as an Immortal Emperor.
With a deafening roar, the void collapsed and the earth cracked. The terrifying pressure almost shook the entire universe. One terrifying wave after another, like the shockwaves produced by a nuclear explosion, were extremely frightening and boundless.
Instantly, countless people around stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"Holy crap, he's actually a real Immortal Emperor!"
"Damn, I was actually queuing up with an Immortal Emperor just now? Holy crap, I can't believe it!"
"Immortal Emperor above, please accept my bow!"
The praise was endless, like the Yangtze River, each wave stronger than the last.
Especially the Quasi-Immortal Emperor from before, who never expected that there would actually be a real Immortal Emperor queuing up here, was trembling with fear. He immediately knelt down and uttered flattering words: "Great boss, you're awesome! Great boss, you're mighty!"
My God, I never expected that a real Immortal Emperor would appear here. Holy crap, this is truly shocking! You know, Immortal Emperors have all retired now, and unless something major happens in the Nine Heavens Realm, they will never show their faces. They only exist in legends.
"Oh? So you're an Immortal Emperor. How delightful! Well then, I'll show you what I've got."
Gu Changqing glanced at the Golden-Robed Immortal Emperor, smiled faintly, and then raised his hand and pointed. Instantly, his inner world erupted, and the entire world erupted with a terrifying tsunami. The seabed roared and raged, and volcanoes for 100,000 miles erupted. This finger carried the power of his entire inner world and struck out.
Upon seeing this, the Golden-Robed Immortal Emperor sneered and said with disdain, "Are you looking down on me? You think you can fob me off with a mere finger?"
As he spoke, he casually pointed a finger, launching an attack against the opponent.
In his opinion, his finger strike was something the other party couldn't possibly withstand, after all, he was a dignified Immortal Emperor, a true Immortal Emperor. This idiot had kicked a hornet's nest today.
But just then, for some reason, he suddenly sensed an extremely terrifying aura erupting from the other party. Before he could recover, someone exclaimed, "Holy crap, a ninth-level Immortal Emperor!"
"What? The ninth level of the Immortal Emperor realm?"
"Holy crap, can you please stop being so shocking? Even a powerful figure at the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor realm has appeared?"
"Holy crap, you're awesome! I'm bowing down to you, you're amazing!"
Various sounds rang out incessantly, like a barrage of firecrackers. Rows of people knelt down, as if they had seen ancient gods, extremely shocked and horrified.
The golden-robed Immortal Emperor's expression changed drastically, and he was immediately shocked. "My heavens are actually beings at the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor realm?! This…!"
He wanted to stop, but it was too late; the other person's finger was already upon him.
"Boom!"
In an instant, the two fingers touched each other hard, and his fingers crumbled and exploded into a cloud of blood mist!
Before the other person's fingers could stop, one finger pierced through his arm and went straight through his chest, leaving a large hole!
Countless drops of Immortal Emperor's blood splattered everywhere, and bits of flesh flew in all directions!
"Hiss!" The scene was stunned; countless people felt their scalps tingle and were horrified.
Good heavens, is this how violent a ninth-level Immortal Emperor is? He shattered an Immortal Emperor's chest with just a single finger. It's even sharper than an ancient spear. Hiss, this is terrifying.
"So this is the terror of this level? This is it? That golden-robed Immortal Emperor was so arrogant just now, I wonder what he's thinking now!"
"I reckon he was terrified. My God, to be honest, when those two fingers collided, I almost couldn't believe my eyes. It was a crushing defeat!"
"Yes, a single move decides the outcome!"
Countless people cried out in shock and disbelief.
The Golden-Robed Immortal Emperor was also greatly shocked. Without saying a word, he immediately bowed down and said in a trembling voice, "This junior was unaware of your esteemed presence and has failed to greet you properly. I was very rude just now, and I hope that you will forgive my shortcomings."
"Sorry, I hold grudges very much. You were the one who made me arrogant just now. If I didn't act arrogantly, wouldn't I be letting myself down?" Gu Changqing said with a playful smile, stroking his chin with one hand.
