"This Marquis truly dares not descend into the Star River—so what?" Divine Martial Marquis said indifferently.
"Keh keh keh..." Gu Qingfeng burst into laughter. "This Emperor thought you were something impressive, but turns out you're just a pathetic coward who doesn't even dare step into the Star River."
His expression suddenly twisted into a vicious grin, his demonic eyes locking onto Divine Martial Marquis as he sneered, "Then what the hell are you yapping about?"
Divine Martial Marquis frowned slightly. "This is precisely why I despise your Star Demon race. A wretched species like yours shouldn’t even—what?!"
His face abruptly paled as his body flickered like a phantom to the edge of the Star River, his jade-like hand lashing out in a furious grab.
But Gu Qingfeng had already plunged headfirst into the river, sending a towering wave over ten meters high crashing outward.
The spray scattered uncontrollably, and before Divine Martial Marquis could react, droplets of Star River water splattered onto him.
Horror flashed across his face as vast surges of immortal energy erupted from his body like a raging tsunami.
Yet the droplets struck with the weight of falling stars, colliding against his energy with a sizzling hiss.
In the end, Divine Martial Marquis—a Great Luo Golden Immortal—managed to barely withstand the assault.
From within the Star River, Gu Qingfeng’s voice echoed mockingly.
"Pathetic coward, come down here if you’ve got the guts!"
Divine Martial Marquis—
He never imagined Gu Qingfeng would be such a freak. Even the upper currents of the Star River couldn’t harm him. What kind of monster was this?!
Now, he was filled with regret.
In modern terms: he should’ve just captured the bastard from the start instead of posturing. Now, the prey had slipped away, leaving him humiliated.
"What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue? Weren’t you enjoying your tea earlier? Go on, take another sip!" Gu Qingfeng taunted while swimming leisurely in the river.
The mention of tea made Divine Martial Marquis—despite his endless lifespan—burn with shame and fury.
He’d had the chance to seize Gu Qingfeng earlier, yet he’d wasted time brewing tea instead. What kind of lunacy was that?!
"Who are you? How can you swim unscathed in the Star River?!" Divine Martial Marquis suddenly roared. "Are you the reincarnation of the Star Extreme Immortal King?!"
"I’m your damn father!"
"You insolent wretch! Do you truly believe this Marquis can’t deal with you?!"
Divine Martial Marquis snapped. His eyes blazed like twin suns, radiant to the extreme, casting golden light across the entire Star River.
Whoosh!
A blinding beam of light shot forth, searing like a supernova, illuminating the heavens.
It tore straight toward Gu Qingfeng.
Gu Qingfeng’s expression tightened as he swiftly dove deeper, evading the attack.
Yet the beam pierced through the Star River’s waters, relentless in its pursuit—proof of its terrifying power.
Fortunately, Gu Qingfeng moved through the river like a fish in water. Unlike outsiders who had to struggle against its corrosive force, he thrived in it, continuously absorbing Star Extreme Law energy.
With this power, though it didn’t enhance his other abilities, he could manipulate the river’s currents to a small degree.
He summoned waves of Star River water as shields while propelling himself deeper.
After descending hundreds of feet, the beam finally dissipated.
Though unharmed, Gu Qingfeng was shaken. A Great Luo Golden Immortal was on an entirely different level—like a being from another dimension.
Not only could they ignore spatial distance, but they could also pierce the Star River itself.
That beam had felt like a gamma-ray burst annihilating countless stars before finally fading.
But fear wasn’t in Gu Qingfeng’s nature.
He scoffed, "Useless trash. This Emperor stands right in front of you, and you still can’t land a hit. Why even live? A ‘Great Luo Golden Immortal’? More like a pathetic joke."
Divine Martial Marquis’ face darkened. The skies convulsed with thunder, and the very fabric of the cosmos seemed to wail.
Silently, his eyes began gathering energy again—this time far more intensely. Twin golden suns burned within his gaze, though his complexion grew increasingly pale.
Oh shit!
This guy’s lost it!
Gu Qingfeng realized he couldn’t stay. If the Marquis had some secret technique to multiply his power a hundredfold, he’d be doomed. Time to flee—but not without a proper exit.
He sneered, "Mark this day’s grudge—Holy shit!"
Before he could finish, Divine Martial Marquis unleashed his attack.
This beam was several times thicker and more devastating than before—unstoppable in its might.
The moment it struck the river, the waters boiled violently, shaking the heavens and sending stars tumbling from the sky.
Though the river eroded its power, the beam was simply too massive to be fully diminished.
Gu Qingfeng dove frantically, descending thousands of feet, yet the beam—though halved—gained speed, closing in fast.
He swerved, but the attack curved like a homing missile.
Damn it!
With no choice, he summoned the Star Extreme Demonfire, the Immortal-Binding Chains, and the Nine Heavens Profound Ice Soul-Freezing Pillar.
The chains coiled around the beam like serpents, weakening it slightly. Though they couldn’t stop it, they slowed its advance.
Next, he hurled the Star Extreme Demonfire.
Strangely, the flames didn’t extinguish in the river—instead, they erupted like oil meeting fire, expanding wildly. Likely due to their shared origin, the two forces amplified each other.
The explosion was cataclysmic, filling the river with blinding light and the sound of shattering stars.
Yet from the chaos, a hair-thin strand of golden light shot forth—diminished but unyielding.
Gu Qingfeng calmly raised the Nine Heavens Profound Ice Soul-Freezing Pillar. A glacial aura erupted, further weakening the beam before it struck the pillar with a thunderous—
Boom!
With a sound like a bubble bursting, the light in his eyes scattered and vanished without a trace.
Meanwhile, a faint mark appeared on the Nine Heavens Profound Ice Frozen Soul Snow Spirit Frostlight Pillar.
Truly, a Great Luo Golden Immortal is fearsome beyond measure.
Even after being weakened by the Star River, and despite the layers of protection from the Star Extreme Demonic Flame, the Immortal-Binding Chains, and the Nine Heavens Profound Ice Frozen Soul Snow Spirit Frostlight Pillar, the attack still managed to leave a trace on the pillar.
One could only imagine—if this had struck land, the Nine Heavens Profound Ice Frozen Soul Snow Spirit Frostlight Pillar would likely have been completely destroyed, unable to withstand such a blow.
