"Sixth Elder!"
"Brother Yangshuo!"
Countless members of the Chongming Clan cried out in anguish, their eyes bloodshot and tears on the verge of falling.
Yet, not a single soul dared to take a step forward. Gu Qingfeng's display of power just now was plain for all to see. With such an invincible stance and strength that crushed everything before it, there was likely no one in this world capable of opposing him, save for an Immortal King.
Immortal Empress Xihe's expression was grave to the extreme. She stared fixedly at Gu Qingfeng upon the throne, a glint of absolute resolve emerging in her gaze.
She knew all too well that conventional methods could never suppress or kill this demon; now, her only choice was to employ that technique.
"Elders, hear my command: Sacrifice the Star Abyss!" Immortal Empress Xihe ordered.
Upon hearing this, the remaining seven elders turned pale with shock.
"Empress, the Star Abyss is the very foundation of the Chongming Immortal Clan! Once activated, our entire clan could be destroyed in an instant!"
"Indeed, Empress, please reconsider! Although this demon is incomparably savage, if we resort to hit-and-run tactics, we could likely stall him for some time."
"My mind is made up!" Immortal Empress Xihe declared resolutely. "The Star Abyss is not the foundation upon which the Chongming Immortal Clan stands—you, my clansmen, are! As long as our people live, the Chongming Immortal Clan will exist. If our people are slaughtered in countless numbers, then what use is preserving the Star Abyss? Everyone, hear my command: Sacrifice the Star Abyss!"
Hearing Immortal Empress Xihe's words, a look of deep emotion flashed through the elders' eyes. They nodded with grim determination and roared in unison, "Sacrifice the Star Abyss!"
At that moment, the members of the Chongming Clan, led by Immortal Empress Xihe, gathered together. They chanted the same profound and obscure incantations, their hands forming identical hand seals. Their expressions were resolute and solemn, resembling ancient people offering sacrifices to the heavens.
Gu Qingfeng rested his chin on one hand, watching the united crowd with keen interest, anticipating what kind of surprise they might deliver.
Suddenly, the sound of their ritual grew grander, resonating like the celestial voice of the Great Dao.
Boom—!
A terrifying rumble erupted between heaven and earth. For a moment, the ground quaked and the mountains shook; even the sky and the void trembled.
"Oh?" A flicker of surprise passed through Gu Qingfeng's eyes. "This is..."
The entire territory of the Chongming Immortal Clan began to collapse. The earth cracked open. The stronghold, cultivated by the Chongming Immortal Clan for hundreds of millions of years, was completely disintegrating, with all buildings reduced to rubble.
In the next instant, a miraculous scene unfolded.
From beneath the Chongming Immortal Clan's territory, a pitch-black mountain range stretching for hundreds of millions of miles rose slowly, like a rising sun.
This mountain range stretched beyond the range of sight. Words like majestic or towering were insufficient to describe even a ten-thousandth of its grandeur.
Gu Qingfeng now understood why they had claimed the Star Abyss was the foundation of the Chongming Immortal Clan; it turned out their entire territory was built atop it.
This Star Abyss was incredibly eerie and miraculous, seemingly filled with twisted force fields—fields so intense they distorted the very void itself.
"Gravity?" Gu Qingfeng remarked with interest. He could clearly see that this massive Star Abyss was saturated with an unimaginable gravitational field. It appeared to bear some method left behind by the Chongming Immortal King to contain this gravity; otherwise, this entire starry sky would have been crushed by the Star Abyss.
It was his first time seeing such a marvel. How could it be described?
The Star Abyss seemed to be composed of countless solidified black holes. It is common knowledge that black holes are formed by the collapse of high-mass stars; due to their small volume but immense mass, they collapse space-time, forming a hole capable of devouring all things.
Thus, a black hole possesses extremely high mass and immense gravity.
This Star Abyss, however, seemed to be made of billions of black holes. Its gravity had reached an inconceivable level. Even without any Great Dao laws attached to it, relying solely on this terrifyingly extreme gravity, even a Quasi-Immortal King would be forcibly crushed to death upon approach.
This was power pushed to the absolute extreme!
Even an Immortal King could not withstand such a blow head-on and would have to avoid its brunt.
As for anyone other than an Immortal King, they wouldn't even be able to dodge. The immense gravity of the Star Abyss could lock a person in place; even light could not escape its range.
"Gu Qingfeng, do you not claim to be undying and imperishable? Today, this Empress shall suppress you beneath the Star Abyss for all eternity, ensuring you never find release! When that happens, the immortality you rely on will become a joke. Being undying and imperishable will bring you nothing but never-ending torture and loneliness! This is the price you must pay for offending the Chongming Immortal Clan!" Immortal Empress Xihe said in a chilling voice.
The killing intent in her heart had reached its peak, for the price paid was too great.
The cost of suppressing Gu Qingfeng was something even the Chongming Immortal Clan could barely withstand. After this battle, the clan's development would be set back by at least a hundred million years.
This was not only because countless clansmen had died, but because the Chongming Immortal Clan was built upon the Star Abyss, utilizing its miraculous properties for rapid development.
But now that the Star Abyss had been sacrificed, it meant that hundreds of millions of years of effort were destroyed in a single moment. All the secret realms, grotto-heavens, spiritual springs, medicine fields—everything was ruined.
How could Immortal Empress Xihe not be filled with hatred?
Clap, clap, clap...
Gu Qingfeng applauded approvingly and smiled with a wicked charm. "This Emperor has always been a man who values fairness. You wish to suppress This Emperor for all eternity, so it wouldn't be excessive if This Emperor suppressed you for all eternity as well, would it?"
"Death is at your door, yet you still dare to wag your tongue! Elders, hear my command: Suppress the demon!"
Following Immortal Empress Xihe's sharp shout...
Boom—!
A deafening roar rang out, and everyone felt their hearing vanish instantly.
The boundless Star Abyss, under the manipulation of the crowd, crashed down toward Gu Qingfeng like the sky collapsing.
It was truly a scene of apocalypse. As the Star Abyss descended, everything in its path—whether air or void—was crushed into a vacuum by the terrifying gravity.
This strike carried the hope of the entire Chongming Immortal Clan.
Facing this terrifying strike—a blow that even an Immortal King would not dare to withstand—Gu Qingfeng let out a soft, disdainful chuckle.
He slowly extended his fair, slender right hand, reaching up to catch the Star Abyss.
Compared to the Star Abyss, his hand was like an ant's feeler against the sun; they were simply not on the same level of existence.
A gleam of joy appeared in the eyes of Immortal Empress Xihe and the others.
They never imagined this demon, Gu Qingfeng, would be so arrogant. To try and catch with a single hand the Star Abyss that even an Immortal King wouldn't dare meet head-on—what was this if not seeking death?
Their greatest fear had been that Gu Qingfeng would use some strange secret technique to dodge the Star Abyss's attack; they had never considered that anyone in this world could actually block it.
Now, everything was perfect. This demon's arrogance and conceit would dig his own grave.
Just as everyone believed victory was within their grasp, a bizarre scene unfolded.
When Gu Qingfeng's palm lightly touched the Star Abyss, the colossal mass, which had been falling with unstoppable momentum, eerily came to a halt!
That's right, it stopped!
No one dared to believe their own eyes. Their minds went blank, akin to someone in the modern world witnessing a person lifting the Earth with a single hand.
It was inconceivable! Unbelievable!

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
