At the bottom of the abyss, darkness and silence are eternal themes.
However, at this moment, a dense and indissoluble mass of the Immortal Emperor's immortal origin, emitting a vitality that made all things throb, enveloped a figure.
Gu Changqing's consciousness slowly recovered amidst extreme pain and extreme comfort.
The Immortal Emperor's casual attack was truly terrifying.
If it were any other supreme being in the new world, he would have been annihilated long ago.
But he is Gu Changqing.
He possesses the dual heaven-defying physiques of [Chaos Dao Body] and [Taichu Immortal Body], and is protected by a trace of the Immortal Emperor's immortal origin returned by the system.
The seemingly fatal injury was healing at an incredible speed.
Not only that, streams of extremely pure insights into the Immortal Emperor's laws poured into his soul and sea of consciousness like a sudden enlightenment.
[Ding! The host endures a casual attack from the Immortal Emperor, triggering a 10 billion times critical strike return!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: The Immortal Emperor's Immortal Origin (a trace)! ]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Invulnerability to All Laws (Incomplete Rule Fragment)*1! ]
The system prompt sound is pleasant to the ears.
The corners of Gu Changqing's mouth rose slightly uncontrollably.
He slowly opened his eyes, and in his deep pupils, there was no trace of relief at having survived a disaster. Instead, there was a faint light flashing like a hunter staring at his prey.
"Immortal Emperor..."
He murmured softly, a hint of amusement in his tone.
In my mind, the system’s prompt “Return multiple: ??? (Determined based on the host’s behavior and final results, unlimited potential!)” is particularly eye-catching.
Invest in the Immortal Emperor?
Or, directly challenge the Immortal Emperor?
Gu Changqing's mind was running as fast as the most sophisticated instrument.
He was keenly aware that the definition of "investment" goes far beyond a simple gift.
Letting the Immortal Emperor reveal his true intentions, consuming his power, or even... enduring his attacks, as long as it can trigger the system's return mechanism, isn't this a more brilliant "investment"?
In his eyes, this high and mighty Immortal Emperor has transformed from an invincible threat into a... walking "luck ATM" with unlimited potential!
"hehe."
A light laugh seemed particularly abrupt in the abyss of deathly silence.
Gu Changqing's mind moved, and through a slight control over the origin of the new world and the authority to the secret realm he had obtained before, he could clearly "see" the scene outside.
The Immortal Emperor had indeed found the ancient forbidden area set up by the Gu family deep in that new world.
At this moment, they were bombarding the Immortal Emperor-level mountain protection formation.
Every bombardment caused the origin of the new world to shake, but the Gu family's formation was as stable as Mount Tai, and even the backlash was so severe that the Immortal Emperor was a little embarrassed.
"It seems that this Immortal Emperor still underestimated the true strength of my Gu family."
A glimmer of understanding flashed in Gu Changqing's eyes.
He decided not to rush into showing up just yet.
Let this Immortal Emperor "work" for me for a while.
Every time he attacked the Gu family's restricted area, and every time he collided with the energy of the Immortal Emperor's formation, it was an excellent "investment" opportunity for Gu Changqing, allowing him to more clearly understand how the power of the Immortal Emperor level worked.
At the same time, he began to concentrate on refining the extremely precious immortal origin of the Immortal Emperor in his body, as well as the mysterious fragment of the rule of "Invulnerability to All Laws".
As he refined it, he felt that his body and soul were undergoing an indescribable transformation.
His understanding of the Immortal Emperor's laws also gradually became clearer from the previous vague perception.
He even tried to integrate his newly acquired understanding of the Immortal Emperor's laws into the subtle influence on the laws surrounding the new world.
Doing so might reduce the efficiency of the Immortal Emperor's attack on the Gu family's restricted area a little, thus extending the time for this "return on investment".
As for directly challenging the Immortal Emperor...
A hint of deep calculation flashed in Gu Changqing's eyes.
The time is not right.
He needs to accumulate more trump cards to maximize the benefits returned by the system.
Passively enduring attacks is ultimately only a temporary solution.
What he wanted was to take the initiative and completely drain this Immortal Emperor!
He also thought of the [Golden Dragon of Luck] in his body.
Against an Immortal Emperor of this caliber, could [Golden Dragon of Luck] have unexpected effects? For example… directly plundering the Immortal Emperor's luck?
This thought made Gu Changqing's heartbeat speed up slightly.
Outside the abyss, the Immortal Emperor's rage grew more intense, and his attacks became more violent.
The countless remaining creatures in the new world had already been trembling in the aftermath of the battle between the Immortal Emperor and the Gu family's restricted area formation, and had fallen into deeper despair.
They couldn't understand why such a terrifying showdown would occur after the disappearance of Young Master Gu, who was like a demon god.
What was even more incomprehensible was that at the bottom of the abyss, Gu Changqing, who should have been seriously injured and dying, was now calmly analyzing the battle situation as a bystander, and even... was secretly accumulating the power of backlash.
This kind of absolute calmness and composure in the midst of a world-destroying battle would be enough to send chills down the spines of anyone if it were known to the outside world.
