In the depths of the universe.
A World Gate stood tall, here it seemed as if there were no hours, the years could not taint this grand, towering gate.
At this moment, a bright light shone from within the World Gate, a figure slowly stepped out from the strong light, clad in black armor, a mysterious presence, a helmet underneath which was as black as a black hole, making it impossible for anyone to see his true face.
It was the Silent Destruction God Emperor!
In his right hand, palm facing up, hovered a golden Token, long as a knife, intricately carved on its surface, emanating a brilliant golden radiance, dazzling beyond compare.
As he walked out of the World Gate, he stopped, turned his head to look at the figure of the Celestial Spirit God.
Another seven figures stepped out one after another from the World Gate, men and women alike, each with a celestial demeanor and magnificent bearing, their gazes also turning toward the Celestial Spirit God. Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire
“Whatever you all intend to do, you must not destroy this Great Thousand World, otherwise even your Celestial Orders won’t be able to save you.”
The voice of the Celestial Spirit God rang out, indifferent in tone, with an unyielding firmness that allowed no rebuttal.
Before the Silent Destruction God Emperor could speak, a man in a white robe behind him raised his hand in greeting and smiled, “Celestial God, rest assured, we have only come to capture one person and will not disrupt the rules of the Great Thousand World.”
The Celestial Spirit God did not respond, and the Silent Destruction God Emperor proceeded to step toward the depths of the universe, followed closely by the man in the white robe and others.
Soon, this expanse of void fell into silence once more, the bright light inside the World Gate dissipated, and the surroundings of the World Gate dimmed, with only the light emanating from the Celestial Spirit God persisting.
…
Although the arrival of the Silent Destruction God Emperor drew Gu An’s attention, he did not initiate an attack because he felt that the Silent Destruction God Emperor also possessed an Innate Golden Immortal’s Cultivation Level.
Battling an opponent of the same realm wasn’t wise!
Gu An, lying on a tree branch, sat up.
Forget it, let’s have a Life Span Simulation!
[Requires 5,000,000,000 years of Life Span, continue?]
Hmm?
Five billion years of Life Span?
That’s way too expensive!
Gu An directly chose no, there was no need to waste Life Span, especially since the aura of the Silent Destruction God Emperor didn’t intimidate him.
The Silent Destruction God Emperor wouldn’t be able to discover the Daoist Field of the Beginningless unless he intended to destroy the Celestial Spirit Great World.
Although many have seen Gu An in this world, Gu An has already tampered with their cause and effect, no one would be able to trace back to the Daoist Field of the Beginningless.
Gu An lay back down, continuing to read his book.
He would cross that bridge when he came to it!
It must be said, in these years the Profound Celestial Intent’s penmanship had improved greatly, the depiction of emotion in the text was especially delicate, tugging at one’s heartstrings.
Gu An read intently, through the words he could visualize the scenes of the past, the characters’ emotions as fervent as fire.
The sun set and the moon rose, a full five days passed, An Xin and others finally woke up one after another, which was because Gu An had withdrawn his Dao Intent.
Seeing Gu An sleeping on the tree, they all stood up and paid their respects before leaving in small groups, whispering their insights to each other.
After they all left, only then did Gu An open his eyes.
His gaze turned toward the Celestial Vault.
The Silent Destruction God Emperor had arrived at the Celestial Spirit Great World with his seven subordinates, they did not go to the Supreme Sect but joined the Holy Court instead.
Could it be that their target was not to eliminate Long Qing?
Long Qing’s identity had already been exposed, even that Candle Star knew clearly, the Silent Destruction God Emperor must also be aware.
Perhaps the Silent Destruction God Emperor wanted to Possess Long Qing’s body.
After watching for a while and confirming that the Silent Destruction God Emperor had no immediate intention to act, Gu An flipped off the tree, ready to gather Medicinal Herbs.
No matter what sinister plots and schemes the Silent Destruction God Emperor had, his progression in strength could not stop.
Once he reached a lifespan of a hundred billion years, Gu An could peer into higher realms.
Getting stronger was always the right move.
At the same time,
In the Sacred Domain, within the grand council hall of the Holy Court, the Saint Minister sat at the head, looking down upon the Silent Destruction God Emperor and his seven subordinates.
The Saint Minister remembered the battle fought between the Silent Destruction God Emperor and the Supporting Dao Sword Venerable. Although the god emperor was annihilated by a single move from the sword venerable, the aura he exuded at the time was still vivid in his memory.
“Why have you come?” the Saint Minister asked.
He didn’t know why the Silent Destruction God Emperor was still alive, but with the Supporting Dao Sword Venerable having left the Celestial Spirit Great World, he had to be cautious in facing these outsiders from beyond.
Looking at the Silent Destruction God Emperor and the others, the Saint Minister felt bitter.
He had tirelessly reached the state of a Free Immortal, but the opponents he faced were numerous and even stronger; it seemed as though the heavens were toying with him.
A man in white robes stepped forward from behind the Silent Destruction God Emperor and said with a smile, “Now the Immortal Dynasty has an existence that surpasses the Free Immortal. Once he merges with the Immortal God Destiny Pattern, the end of the Holy Court won’t be far off.”
With those words, the Saint Minister’s expression turned ugly. He had always been troubled by this matter but was powerless to address it. How could he feel good having it pointed out by others?
It was clear; these people wanted to use the Holy Court!
The key issue was that the Holy Court was indeed on the path to doom—there seemed to be no imminent peril, but it was really just a matter of time.
Since he couldn’t refuse these people’s manipulations, the Saint Minister struggled to keep his composure.
The man in white continued to speak with a smile, “Even if the Yang Immortal Emperor merges with the Immortal God Destiny Pattern, he would not be a match for us. We can assist the Holy Court. You needn’t worry about the court becoming our puppet, for we shall leave sooner or later. We are in this world only to cultivate one person.”
The Saint Minister inquired, “May I ask who this person is? Is he within my Holy Court?”
The man in white shook his head, “No, we only need the Holy Court to create obstacles for him, better tempering him and allowing him to grow stronger.”
After hearing this, the Saint Minister fell into silence.
“We will not help you directly annihilate the Yang Immortal Emperor. You probably already realize the existence of the tribulations of heaven and earth and the will of the Heavenly Dao. If the Yang Immortal Emperor acts against the Holy Court, naturally we will intervene. Before that, we will stay in the Holy Court,” the man in white said.
These words did stir the Saint Minister’s heart.
He could sense that this group was very strong, each one giving him the same feeling he got from facing the Supporting Dao Sword Venerable.
The most crucial point was that he had no room to refuse. To do so would only make things uglier, perhaps disastrously so.
As the Saint Minister sighed inwardly, the Silent Destruction God Emperor raised his hand and from his palm flew a wooden rod. It was a red wooden rod, with a curved top like a serpent. Apart from being brightly colored, it looked unremarkable.
The Silent Destruction God Emperor spoke, “This rod is made of Dao Wood and can grant you unparalleled strength, as well as assist you in comprehending the Great Dao. Consider it a gift for our first meeting.”
The Saint Minister started to speak, but the red rod suddenly flew in front of him. The immense pressure changed his complexion; he sensed the profound Dao Intent within the rod, and his eyes widened in shock.
Such a treasure…
The Saint Minister looked at the Silent Destruction God Emperor and asked, “Who… who exactly are you?”
The face of the Silent Destruction God Emperor was shrouded in darkness, as if he were the most mysterious being in the world, and he responded, “The Silent Extinction Domain was my creation, and Silent Extinction is my name.”
The Saint Minister opened his mouth, his face etched with disbelief.
…
In a valley,
The Immortal Seeker sat beside a lake, gazing at the bright day sky, murmuring, “It seems that I still can’t let go. Whose chess piece are you?”
Zhu Xi, who sat meditating in the middle of the lake, opened her eyes and glanced at him, asking, “Whom are you talking about?”
“The one who created the Qi of Annihilation.”
“The Divine Emperor? Someone of his caliber is also a chess piece?”
“Indeed, he’s been tirelessly working for the bloodline of the Long Clan; he’s either being driven by someone behind the scenes or pressured by an even greater force. The waters of this world are becoming muddier, and when the Heaven and Earth Dao Fruit appears, your pressure will only increase.”
With that said, the Immortal Seeker’s face took on a teasing expression.
Zhu Xi hummed, “The Daoist Unique Venerate Skill you passed onto me is so powerful, and with my talent, I’m not afraid.”
