Gu Changqing's words "Come and get it yourself" were like an edict that spanned eternity, triggering a supreme response in the core of the dead and silent land of the end.
Buzz——
The nothingness before him began to distort.
It is not tearing, but a "folding" of a higher dimension.
The violent law of catastrophe was as docile as a lamb in front of this force.
A figure slowly walked out from the folded nothingness.
He was more solid than any previous incarnation of the law, as if he was a flesh and blood body walking in the world, with an ancient aura flowing around him that could not be erased by time.
The Immortal Emperor ancestor of the Gu family.
He has arrived.
The old ancestor's gaze fell on Gu Changqing. For the first time, his eyes, which had witnessed the birth and death of eras, revealed a hint of true approval and a hint of... eternal relief.
"You can use your own power to see the existence of that 'Tao Fruit'..."
His voice was very soft, but it seemed like the source of all things was roaring.
"Changqing, you've grown faster than I thought."
Gu Changqing looked indifferent and nodded slightly, without any sign of being flattered.
He simply calmly recounted the glimpse of the future he had glimpsed from his "quasi-immortal perception": "The essence of the catastrophe is not destruction, but a 'reset' that sweeps across the heavens."
"And the Gu family..."
A hint of cold understanding flashed across Gu Changqing's eyes.
"We are not the so-called restricted area, but... the jailers guarding this 'reset'."
The ancestor smiled when he heard this.
That smile carried a hint of eternal fatigue and self-mockery.
"jailer?"
"That's quite fitting."
"Guardian, Sealer... they're just trying to flatter themselves."
He raised his head and looked into the darkness deeper than the end of the world, as if he was staring at a forbidden existence.
"Long ago, an 'Immortal' attempted to end this endless cycle. He failed."
"As a price, part of his essence was used to suppress the source of the catastrophe, and the Gu family made a vow with him to guard this seal for generations."
"Our bloodline is both part of the seal and the ultimate weapon against that catastrophe."
These words completely confirmed all of Gu Changqing's speculations.
He, and the entire Gu family, have been at the core of this ultimate chess game since their inception!
"That 'Tao Fruit' is called the 'Immortal Altar'."
The old ancestor's gaze returned to Gu Changqing and became extremely solemn.
"It is the core of the seal forged by our ancestors using their own blood and bones and the essence of that immortal."
"Now, the seal has loosened, catastrophe has begun again, and a new ruler is needed."
"And you, Gu Changqing, are the ruler of this generation."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old ancestor put his fingers together as a sword and pointed it at Gu Changqing's eyebrows from a distance!
There is no earth-shattering power.
There is no vision of law breaking.
But Gu Changqing felt that his blood was completely ignited at this moment!
boom!!!
An ancient and unimaginable terrifying power that had been dormant in the deepest part of his blood suddenly awakened!
That is not an external force.
That belongs to him, to the Gu family bloodline, the ultimate innate foundation!
Golden ancient runes, like the first ray of light when the world was created, emerged from his blood, bone marrow, and soul, and were imprinted on every part of his body.
Immortal mark!
"In the second phase of the catastrophe, the true 'quasi-immortal' will will descend."
"Its power is far beyond the reach of the Daoist incarnation you killed before."
"Until you truly enter the Dao Zun realm and completely integrate this 'Immortal Seal', do not provoke it."
"Remember, the 'Immortal Altar' is your only chance of survival."
The ancestor's voice was more serious than ever before.
Gu Changqing could feel that the terrifying power that was awakening in his body had a resonance that transcended time and space with the "Immortal Altar" in the deepest part of the Land of the End.
He has become the new coordinate.
When Gu Changqing raised his eyes again, the figure of the ancestor had quietly disappeared, as if he had never appeared.
He was left alone to face the ultimate crisis, which had escalated to countless levels.
And the immortal altar that was waiting for him to take charge.
