Deep within Gu Changqing's sea of consciousness, the vast starry sky that was opened up due to his promotion to the Immortal Emperor suddenly began to ripple with an imperceptible ripple.
The next moment.
A divine thought, so ancient that it seemed to have existed since the beginning of the universe, and vast enough to encompass thousands of galaxies, descended silently.
This will is familiar and carries with it a supreme pressure that makes the soul tremble.
The Immortal Emperor Ancestor of the Gu Family!
The projection of the ancestor's divine consciousness slowly condensed and took shape in Gu Changqing's sea of consciousness.
It was not a clear human figure, but a ball of chaotic light. It seemed as if billions of stars were born and died, and myriad laws were rising and falling in the light.
But Gu Changqing could clearly feel that the gaze cast from the light and shadow carried a hint of... approval.
"good."
The ancient and calm voice resounded directly in the depths of Gu Changqing's soul. Every byte contained the great truth, as if it was the first sound of Tao when the world was first created.
"Don't let down the bloodline of my Gu family."
These six simple words made Gu Changqing feel a sense of recognition that came from blood, more than any reward.
"You have already stepped into the realm of the Immortal Emperor. This lower world can no longer accommodate you." The old ancestor's voice was without any emotional fluctuations, but it contained unquestionable majesty.
“The upper realm of the immortal realm may seem vast, but in reality it is just a drop in the ocean.”
"Becoming an Immortal Emperor is not the end of cultivation."
The ancestor's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in Gu Changqing's heart, but did not move him at all.
He had expected this.
"Beyond the Immortal Emperor, there is another world. Many immortal sects, ancient dynasties, and eternal forbidden areas all have dormant old monsters within them. Their methods are far beyond your imagination."
"And the real core..."
The old ancestor's mind paused slightly, and the chaotic light and shadow seemed to become deeper.
"It's called [The Land of the End]."
"That is the origin of the fairyland, and it may also be the end of all things."
"It contains an ancient secret that even the Immortal Emperor fears, as well as... the true mission of my Gu family."
Gu Changqing's eyes flickered slightly.
The Gu family is indeed not just an ordinary Immortal Emperor family.
"My Gu family has been passed down from ancient times to this day, not just for the purpose of dominating a region."
"But one of the ancient guardians of the [End Land]."
"Our enemy is the indescribable, unfathomable, [Ultimate Catastrophe], powerful enough to sweep across the heavens and myriad worlds."
The ancestor's words were like a key, opening a door for Gu Changqing to the deepest secrets of the universe.
This time, the ancestor did not take direct action to eliminate the threat like last time, nor did he directly grant Gu Changqing any substantial power.
His mind moved.
Countless tiny fragments of laws flew out from the chaotic light and shadow, interweaving and outlining in Gu Changqing's sea of consciousness.
In a flash, a vast, yet extremely simple star map of the upper realm of the fairyland slowly unfolded.
On the star map, spots of light flickered.
Some of the light spots were as hot as the sun, with the words "Extremely dangerous, even the Immortal Emperor will perish" marked on them.
Some of the light spots are dark and deep, marked with "suspected ancient heritage, opportunities and dangers coexist."
"This is a map of some known areas in the upper realm of the immortal realm. You need to judge the dangers and opportunities within it yourself."
"Those areas marked as [Ancient Taboos], remember, must not be touched lightly." The old ancestor's voice contained a subtle warning.
"but……"
He changed the subject.
"Some of these taboos may be inextricably linked to my Gu family."
This sentence is very meaningful.
Finally, the projection of the ancestor's divine consciousness, that ball of chaotic light, began to become somewhat illusory.
"Changqing, your rise has already broken a certain balance."
"You may be the trigger for the premature arrival of the [ultimate catastrophe]."
"Grow up as quickly as possible, go to the upper realm, and explore the edge of the [Land of the End]."
"Time is running out."
As soon as he finished speaking, that ancient and vast divine thought slowly receded like the tide and disappeared without a trace.
Gu Changqing's sea of consciousness returned to calm.
He quietly digested the vast amount of information brought by the ancestor.
The complex structure of the upper fairyland.
An existence above the Immortal Emperor.
The mysterious [Land of the End].
The Gu family's ancient duty as guardians.
And the coming [ultimate catastrophe].
All this not only did not make him feel the slightest pressure or fear, but instead made his already cold and rational heart burn with an even brighter flame.
It's excitement, anticipation, and the desire as a top villain to conquer more difficult hunting grounds!
The ancestor's guidance is not just a simple protection.
Instead, it pushed him to the center of a more magnificent, more dangerous and unpredictable vortex.
But, isn't this exactly what he wants?
"The Land of the End...The Ultimate Catastrophe..."
The corner of Gu Changqing's mouth curled up in a cold and playful arc.
"It seems that the next few days will not be boring."
His gaze seemed to penetrate the sky of the new world and look towards the upper fairyland full of unknowns and challenges.
A new chess game has been laid out for him.
