Chapter 579: Chapter 574: Annihilate Completely
The Celestial Spirit Great World’s celestial vault was covered with black holes of varying sizes; every creature within the Celestial Spirit Great World, as long as they looked up at the celestial vault, would see such a phenomenon and become panic-stricken. Since the vast majority of living beings had never witnessed such a phenomenon in their lives, it was inevitable that they would be fearful.
All the Major Sects quickly formed arrays and sent Great Power Cultivators to observe the sky.
The vast oppressive force of the Battle Court enveloped the entire Great World, yet no creature from the Battle Court had appeared.
Long Qing took two steps forward, looking at the myriad of black holes with an extremely calm expression.
He had already prepared himself to die.
Long Teng looked at his father’s silhouette, unable to resist asking, “Father, what exactly are you planning to do?”
…
Long Qing didn’t answer him.
The protective formation of the Supreme Sect rose up, and figures began appearing around the attic; they were either high-ranking individuals of the Supreme Sect or descendants of the Long Family.
After Long Qing issued a precautionary command, he no longer spoke, and no matter who asked him, he did not respond.
Ye Cang looked at his master, feeling extremely distressed.
Just then, brilliant lights arose from the horizon, all of them entering the black holes within the celestial vault. The lights entered the black holes and disappeared without causing any disturbance, as if traveling through time and space.
Far beyond, in the depths of the universe, a dark purple light path stretching millions of miles was rapidly extending. Figures were walking on the light path, with black holes continuously appearing on both sides; some figures stepped into the black holes, while others stepped out from within.
On this dark purple light path, leading at the front was a Nine-headed Flood Dragon covered in black dragon scales. Its nine necks were like mountains, and its nine dragon heads continuously spewed intense heat waves.

This dragon was larger than any meteor it passed by, advancing like a Creation God Mountain, dignified and vast.
Following behind it was an overwhelming march of creatures from the Battle Court—humans, demons, and ghostly evils—all moving in the same direction.
In the midst of this multitude, a Sword Cultivator advanced. He wore a red robe tightened at the waist, the sleeves broad; his features were young and handsome, and his hair was snow-white. He looked ahead with furrowed brows.
His name was Fang Xuan, a renowned prodigy of the Battle Court who possessed the cultivation level of a Profound Yuan Free Immortal.
He was shocked by the sight before him; having lived millions of years, it was his first time seeing the Battle Court amass such military force.
Looking around, the terrifying aura emitted by those figures made him feel alienated; he even doubted if these people were from the Battle Court.
Had he only been in seclusion for several hundred thousand years for the Battle Court to have improved this much?
“Just to invade a Great Thousand World, is it necessary to send so many people?”
“I heard that the Silent Destruction God Emperor fell in that Great Thousand World, which is why there’s such a massive mobilization.”
“What? The Silent Destruction God Emperor fell? How is that possible, being such an ancient being…”
“We’re going to the Celestial Spirit Great World; this Great World has just been reshaped. The world itself poses no threat to us, but there is an extremely terrifying being hiding inside, and it also intends to support the Long Clan, which is provoking the Battle Court.”
“The Long Clan? They haven’t been completely wiped out?”
Listening to the discussions around him, Fang Xuan’s mind conjured up an image of the Silent Destruction God Emperor.
He had only seen the Silent Destruction God Emperor once when he went to listen to the emperor’s doctrine; in his mind, the Silent Destruction God Emperor’s Dao practice was unfathomable, and even the high-level of the Battle Court were very polite toward him.
Such a being had actually fallen…
Fang Xuan felt uneasy; although there were a lot of them, the more forces the Battle Court deployed, the more dangerous he felt this battle would be.
The Dao practices of the high-level members of the Battle Court were beyond his imagination; those beings certainly saw more than he did.
Facing an unknown great battle, how should he ensure his own safety?
Just as Fang Xuan was lost in chaotic thoughts, from some of the black holes ahead flew out cultivators of the Celestial Spirit Great World. When they saw the unending Battle Court Light Path, they were all startled.
Before they could speak, nearby creatures from the Battle Court quickly took action.
The great battle had officially commenced!
Cultivators from worlds below the Zi Zai Immortal Realm had no power to resist; they were directly obliterated. Those with higher cultivation levels hurriedly escaped back into the black holes, through which they returned to the Celestial Spirit Great World.
Daoist Field of the Beginningless.
All disciples had gathered in Gu An’s courtyard, curious about the celestial phenomena above.
Gu An didn’t say much; with a wave of his sleeve, the blue smoke above the Artifact Refining Cauldron condensed rapidly, forming a large mirror that reflected the majestic sight of the Battle Court Light Path.
An Xin, Shen Zhen, Celestial Demon Child, and Blood Prison Great Saint looked up and were all stunned.
On the trans-universal Battle Court Light Path, the crowd surged like a tide, the massive beings as large as mountains appearing even more fearsome.
Along the end of the Battle Court Light Path, a terrifying huge shadow loomed in the deep darkness, revealing only its upper body as if carrying forward this vast light path single-handedly.
The Battle Court Light Path in the hand of this huge shadow resembled a sword thrusting forward, a scene that shocked everyone’s eyes.
Celestial Demon Child couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Gu An and asked, “Master, who are they?”
The others also turned to look at Gu An. The usually loquacious Blood Prison Great Saint and Lv Xian were also stunned; facing such a force, they felt only apprehension in their hearts.
Gu An responded, “This is the Battle Court, a power from beyond the Great Thousand World.”
An Xin pressed further, “Why have they come?”
The others were also puzzled, waiting for Gu An to clarify.
Gu An did not conceal anything and revealed the grievances between the Long Clan and the Battle Court.
“This grudge has lasted for many years. Twenty thousand years ago, there was an entity known as the Silent Destruction God Emperor who also came for the descendants of the Long Clan,” Gu An said calmly.
Chen Chuan couldn’t help but say, “To usurp their nest and to exterminate them, this Lord of the Battle Court is really not anything good, and by the looks of it, they’re likely aiming to take over the Celestial Spirit Great World.”
The others also started cursing at the Battle Court.
An Xin suddenly thought of something. She looked at Gu An and timidly asked, “Master, you granted Long Qing the Long surname, could it be…”
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent—they all knew Long Qing, who was personally taken in as a disciple by Gu An.
An Xin still remembered that Gu An had previously refused to guide Long Qing in cultivation because Long Qing carried a great cause and effect.
Gu An nodded and said, “Yes, Long Qing is indeed a descendant of the Long Clan.”
Everyone looked at each other after hearing this.
Blood Prison Great Saint became excited and asked, “Master, will you take action?”
The others also felt invigorated by this.
They had practiced arduously in the dojo. The higher their realm, the more they revered Gu An’s cultivation level.
They had always been curious about just how strong Gu An was.
Surely such a powerful Battle Court could force Gu An to reveal all his strength?
“It is his destiny, why should I intervene? Being able to adopt him, I already took a great risk,” Gu An shook his head and chuckled.
The others didn’t buy it; in their eyes, Gu An would surely protect Long Qing, just as he protected them.
Jiang Shi lamented, “Who knows how many years of cultivation it will take before I can qualify to participate in such a great battle?”
Scenes of battle appeared in the mirror atop the Artifact Refining Cauldron, endless cultivators from the Celestial Spirit Great World surged out of the black holes, blocking the Battle Court’s advancement.
Today’s Celestial Spirit Great World was far beyond the previous Era’s Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth, with an astonishingly consolidated power.
Lv Xian, Chen Chuan, and others, seeing endless cultivators and demons entering the battle through the black holes, felt their blood boiling.
Gu An didn’t immediately take action; he saw this calamity as a good thing, letting the beings of the Great Thousand World feel a sense of crisis.
Moreover, this cause and effect had to be ended by the Long Family themselves. Gu An did not want to publicly tie himself with the Long Family on the surface, waiting for Long Qing to be overwhelmed before intervening.
On the other side of heaven and earth.
Long Qing leaped up, flying towards the black hole in the sky.
Candle Star transmitted to him, saying, “Come with me, facing such a Battle Court, you have no chance of victory.”
Long Qing did not respond to him, nor did he look back.
Candle Star stood in front of the pavilion, opening his mouth, but he ultimately could not muster the courage to go forward and fight alongside Long Qing.
He knew full well the terror of the Battle Court, and crucially, the strength now displayed by the Battle Court was even more formidable than he had known.
He sensed the determination of the Battle Court, vowing to completely annihilate the Long Clan!
Right in the Celestial Spirit Great World!
Watching Long Qing’s figure disappear into the black hole, Long Ya looked at Long Teng, anxiously asking, “Big brother, what exactly is father trying to do? Shouldn’t we help him?”
Long Teng was about to speak when a sonorous voice echoed through the entire Great Heaven and Earth:
“Descendant of the Long Clan, you have stood up, and indeed, you have not dishonored the bloodline of the Long Clan!”
