#93 - Merciless Demon Ancestor
Gu Changsheng left the Misty Swamp.
He went to the nearest city, intending to exchange for some medicinal herbs.
To be on the safe side, he made his injuries appear very severe, just in case he was discovered.
In the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he could definitely recover.
But now, he had left in haste.
He had few healing methods on him.
Being only at fifty percent recovery was definitely not enough.
“Tianfeng City.”
Gu Changsheng put on the hood of his black robe and then walked into the city.
“Exactly, who would have thought that this Gu Changsheng would be such a sinister villain.”
“This matter of his has had a very bad influence; to think he could get the strong cultivators from the sects around the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to voluntarily offer help without asking for anything in return or caring about the cost. Even if Gu Changsheng has run away, he will be a rat crossing the street that everyone wants to beat.”
“Now, every city in the entire Nine Provinces has a portrait of this degenerate. The portrait was even personally made by the Painting Saint, who used painting to attain Dao. There is no place for him in the entire Nine Provinces. As soon as his whereabouts are discovered, a large number of people will rush over.”
“What a degenerate! I used to like reading his poems. Looking back now, it’s simply an insult. He deserves to die.”
“……”
Gu Changsheng lowered his head, gritting his teeth.
It's over!
It's only been a few days.
This news has already spread to this place tens of thousands of miles away.
There really is no place for him, Gu Changsheng, in this entire Nine Provinces.
“Xu Fengqiu, you harmed me! You ruined my life! I, Gu Changsheng, such a radiant, top-tier genius of the Nine Provinces, surrounded by stars, because of you! I am now so down and out, hated by everyone! Who am I, Gu Changsheng! It's all you!”
At this moment, a figure rode a horse in the city and shouted:
“Everyone, pay attention! According to a reliable source, Gu Changsheng was suspected of going to the Misty Swamp. This place is only eighty miles away from the Misty Swamp. Everyone, be vigilant.”
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng's expression changed, and he quickly lowered his head and hurried away.
“Is it necessary? Is it necessary for these people? This young master just killed someone, that’s all, right? Haven’t you guys ever done things like killing people for treasure? Do you have to force this young master to death before you’re willing to stop?”
“When you force this young master to death, each of you will be the culprit, no different from this young master!”
Crack, crack, crack—
Gu Changsheng clenched his fists.
Whoosh—
He even saw two Immortal Emperors speeding past above the void.
He didn’t know which force they were from.
But what did it have to do with them?
They, as dignified Immortal Emperors, were going to search for him, Gu Changsheng?
Soon, Gu Changsheng also learned the reason.
The Ten Thousand Swords Sect had taken out their sacred treasure, the Purple Cloud Bell, which was very famous throughout the Nine Provinces, as a reward to hunt down Gu Changsheng throughout the continent.
The Purple Cloud Bell, when held by any Immortal Emperor, was equivalent to having an additional powerful weapon!
It was a top-tier sacred artifact that could give them a chance to win even when fighting opponents of a higher level.
Therefore, many Immortal Emperors were willing to come out and try for this Purple Cloud Bell.
Knowing this, Gu Changsheng also understood how difficult his situation was now.
Even the strong cultivators from the major forces were actively searching for him.
What could he do?
What could he do?
“What did I do wrong! I just killed someone, have you guys never killed anyone?”
“It’s just killing for treasure, haven’t you done it before?”
“Could you remain indifferent if the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning was in front of you?”
“Why do you have to keep chasing after me! Why? What did I do wrong!”
Gu Changsheng’s eyes were bloodshot, and his body trembled slightly.
“You forced me, you all forced me!”
Gu Changsheng then sped towards a certain place.
He had obtained the inheritance of the Emotionless Demon Ancestor.
He had never dared to obtain this inheritance for so long.
Because he had always been very wary.
He was worried that although this power could make him stronger, it might be dangerous.
But Xu Fengqiu had crushed him.
He had no choice!
He chose to inherit this power, thereby advancing to the second level of the Immortal Emperor realm.
Now, Xu Fengqiu had crushed him once again.
There was a place he had never been to.
That was the ruins left behind by the Emotionless Demon Ancestor himself.
There, he would obtain even more terrifying power!
He would never have dared to go there before.
Because he was afraid, afraid of being possessed by the Emotionless Demon Ancestor.
But now, he was forced into a desperate situation.
He had no choice!
He could only go.
……
On the other side.
Xu Fengqiu came to the Northern Azure Abyss.
An abyss of unknown depth.
Standing at the edge of the cliff and looking down, there was thick white fog.
It was eerily gloomy.
Sunlight could hardly reach this place.
“You who have no way to go, even if you are wary of being possessed by the Emotionless Demon Ancestor, this is currently the only way for you to change your fate against the heavens. This Northern Azure Abyss, will you come or not?”
Xu Fengqiu stood there with his hands behind his back.
Xu Fengqiu, who knew Gu Changsheng's life story.
What Gu Changsheng knew, Xu Fengqiu knew.
Xu Fengqiu naturally knew of the existence of the Emotionless Demon Ancestor's power.
He also naturally knew that this was Gu Changsheng's last place to turn the tables.
He had already acquired the power of the Emotionless Demon Ancestor.
However, he was struck head-on by Xu Fengqiu.
Now, all he could do was come here to gamble!
Gamble that he could change his fate against the heavens!
Gamble that the Emotionless Demon Ancestor's purpose was not to possess him.
Or rather, even if he wanted to possess him, he, Gu Changsheng, could turn around and devour him.
Because for such a person who cared so much about his halo, he had lost his halo and become a rat crossing the street.
His mentality would be extremely distorted and desperate.
He could only take this path.
Xu Fengqiu didn't know if Gu Changsheng had come.
It was possible that he was already below.
It was possible that he had not yet arrived.
Whoosh—
He jumped in and entered the Northern Azure Abyss.
……
Below the Northern Azure Abyss.
Inside a secret realm.
Gu Changsheng walked in the gloomy passage.
Ahead, an eerie space appeared.
“You've finally come.”
A gloomy voice came.
Then, a figure in a black robe, not revealing any skin, appeared in front of Gu Changsheng.
Clearly, this was the remnant soul of the Emotionless Demon Ancestor.
Gu Changsheng took a breath.
He was too clear about what a sinister character this Emotionless Demon Ancestor was.
He also knew that the Emotionless Demon Ancestor definitely had no good intentions.
But he came here with the idea of gambling his life.
No matter what, it was just a remnant soul.
He, Gu Changsheng, although young, was now at the second level of the Immortal Emperor realm! A peak existence on the continent.
He was not an Heir of Destiny like Ye Feng who was still developing.
He was not afraid!
He could gamble.
“Junior Gu Changsheng, greets Senior Emotionless Demon Ancestor.”
Gu Changsheng clasped his fist.
The Emotionless Demon Ancestor nodded: “Well, you have a connection with this seat. I didn’t expect that after tens of thousands of years, someone would actually obtain this seat's inheritance. I am also very grateful to you for being willing to come here, so that all of this seat's legacy and power can continue to be passed down.”
“I will definitely not disgrace Senior’s wish.” Gu Changsheng said.
“First, accept the final inheritance. This seat still has a Mysterious Heaven Sacred Artifact to leave to you. Come.”
Gu Changsheng clenched his fist.
He knew that accepting this inheritance was likely to be very dangerous.
It was likely that he would be possessed.
But he had no choice!
He was gambling his life!
“Yes!”
Gu Changsheng clasped his fist.
“The Emotionless Path is to cut off all emotions, turning your emotions into nourishment for your cultivation. Your parents, your immortal spouse, your siblings, are all nourishment for your cultivation. Although they will die, they will achieve you, which is equivalent to you bringing them to the peak together.”
“Very good, you have done it, you are very suitable for the Emotionless Path, this seat is very satisfied.”
Then, the Emotionless Demon Ancestor turned into a streak of black and red light and poured into Gu Changsheng's brow.
At the moment of pouring in.
That terrifying black and red light illuminated the entire space.
Gu Changsheng's eyes instantly turned red, and his expression was ferocious and painful.
“Ah—”
He gritted his teeth and roared.
