quiet.
Deathly silence.
As the immortal will hastily retreated, the core area of this [Land of the End] fell into a strange peace.
Gu Changqing stood on the top of the Immortal Altar, holding the newly born Eternal Sword in his hand, his expression calm.
His gaze did not look in the direction where the catastrophe retreated, but fell back on the ancient altar at his feet.
This is the Gu family’s real trump card.
With a thought, he slowly inserted the [Immortal Enlightenment (Complete Version)] he had just obtained from the system into the deepest part of the altar like an invisible key.
Buzz——
It was as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for billions of epochs was awakened, and the entire immortal altar burst into eternal light that was billions of times brighter than before!
In the light, countless ancient and mysterious runes slowly emerged from the stone base of the altar. They did not belong to any known characters, but were more like the embodiment of various "eternal concepts".
If an ordinary Taoist master were to look at this place, his true spirit would collapse and he would be completely assimilated by the supreme laws contained therein.
But Gu Changqing just watched indifferently.
With his control over the [Conceptual Laws], these runes are no longer secrets in his eyes.
They transformed into fragmented pieces of ancient information that spanned eternity of time and space, madly pouring into his sea of consciousness.
"I see……"
Deep in Gu Changqing's eyes, a hint of enlightenment that saw through everything flashed across his face.
These runes are actually... an ancient contract!
An eternal contract based on blood, signed between the ancestor of the Gu family and one or even several "immortals"!
The Gu family has never been a "guardian".
They are the continuation of the bloodline of an ancient "Immortal" and are the backup plan left in the world by those beings in order to deal with a "cyclical imbalance" that even they cannot completely solve!
No wonder.
No wonder the ancestors of the Gu family were able to survive one catastrophe after another and even reverse-engineer such a heaven-defying thing as the "Immortal Altar".
Because they themselves are the "aliens" in the catastrophe! Their blood is born to resonate with "eternity"!
Right at this moment.
Gu Changqing felt that in the deepest part of the altar, there was an "eternal will" that was of the same origin as the Gu family's Immortal Emperor ancestor, but was even older, more vast, and deeper, and was sleeping.
That, perhaps, is the Gu family’s true…source of immortality!
He tried to let a bit of his will follow the resonance of his blood and explore the dormant sea of will.
He didn't expect to wake it up.
But with just this moment of contact, a much larger ancient secret about the [Ultimate Catastrophe] came flooding back like a tide.
The source of the catastrophe is not single!
It is more like the periodic imbalance and major reset that occurs when all the "eternal concepts" in the heavens and worlds reach a certain critical point!
Those immortal beings who are high above are not only the maintainers of the "eternal order", but also the promoters of this "imbalance"!
They are not destroying, but "harvesting" and "correcting"!
"interesting."
The corners of Gu Changqing's cold mouth curled up into a sinister arc.
He no longer hesitated and began a deep fusion of his [Eternal Immortal Body] with the [Immortal Altar] under his feet!
boom!
The altar transformed into endless eternal light, pouring madly into his body.
At this moment, he is the altar, and the altar is him!
He could even feel that the [Ten Thousand Times Return System] in his body, at the moment of merging with the altar, emitted an unprecedented and extremely exciting buzzing sound!
It seems as if there is some kind of innate, secret resonance between the two.
Through this altar, the system will be able to analyze more efficiently and thoroughly, and even... plunder the essence of those "Immortals"!
Gu Changqing slowly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, eternity and chaos were intertwined, as if he could see through the ages and look directly at the ultimate source of the catastrophe.
The Gu family's hidden cards were far more profound than he had imagined.
And he, Gu Changqing.
This is the key to activating all of this and ending this so-called "eternal game" with your own hands!
