Gu Qingfeng did not give Gu Zangtian much of a chance to react before striking again.
In an instant, demonic light surged, illuminating the earth. Countless dark clouds emerged, and blood-red lightning ascended into the sky with a wave of his hand.
A dazzling light of tribulation suddenly appeared from the void.
It transformed into a twelfth-grade black lotus that soared across the sky. It contained endless power of disaster and tribulation, bringing with it a boundless light of tribulation that blotted out the sky and the sun.
Rumble! Rumble!
Billions of blood-red lightning bolts appeared in the firmament above, drawn by the black lotus, and ruthlessly suppressed Gu Zangtian with the momentum of a thunderbolt.
This was the application of the origin of tribulation, manipulating the power of disaster and tribulation between heaven and earth against the enemy.
As Gu Qingfeng's strength grew, his comprehension of the origin of tribulation deepened. At this moment, his methods were no longer limited to being reborn in tribulation.
He could even trigger the power of tribulation between heaven and earth to kill enemies.
The power of tribulation was one of the most terrifying forces in the world. No matter how sky-reaching your cultivation was, a slight carelessness would still lead to your fall under the disaster.
Therefore, Gu Qingfeng named this move: Inescapable Doom!
Encountering a human powerhouse worth fighting, he also planned to use some divine abilities.
Facing Gu Qingfeng's serious strike, Gu Zangtian's expression changed.
He did not expect Gu Qingfeng to have such a divine ability; he thought the previous strike was his opponent's full strength.
Who would have thought there were still more tricks up his sleeve.
But the problem was that the saber strike just now was his own full strength.
Thus... Swoosh!
Gu Zangtian's figure instantly disappeared, fleeing into his own law world.
Because the light of tribulation was too fast and too dazzling, so fast that he could not even care for his subordinates, he directly abandoned them and turned to dive into his law world.
Boom!
The black lotus landed, and the light of tribulation erupted, submerging everything.
Those several Immortal King powerhouses were like mere grass in the face of this terrifying attack, their bodies annihilating inch by inch.
However, the key figure, Gu Zangtian, had escaped.
Gu Qingfeng stood in place in silence for a long time, and finally decided to rename this move: Surviving a Disaster.
Subsequently, he silently left the Heaven-Burying Forbidden Zone, turned around, and headed straight for the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone.
He refused to believe it. If he went through all six forbidden zones, could he really not catch a single Half-Step Immortal Monarch?
Several days later.
Gu Qingfeng's figure appeared in the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone.
The Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone was a scorched earth, burning with inextinguishable flames, and there were incredibly tall flaming mountains, presenting a spectacular sight.
Just getting close to this place, one could feel waves of terrifying heat invading.
This time, Gu Qingfeng once again learned from the experience of his previous two failures. He did not bring any gifts; he simply sneaked into the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone secretly and searched everywhere.
Sneak into the village quietly, do not fire any guns.
However, as he concealed his figure and searched all the way, apart from encountering some bizarre flame creatures, there was nothing else.
Although those bizarre flame creatures were not weak, it seemed their brains had been burned out. None of them had any sentience, and he could not get any answers out of them.
After searching for several days, Gu Qingfeng's remaining patience was completely worn out.
Jie jie jie...
A laugh of extreme anger resounded in the sky above the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone.
Good! Very good! Have all you bastards colluded to not come out? Then this Emperor will trample the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone flat today!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Gu Qingfeng hovered high in the nine heavens. Demonic energy continuously gathered in his hands, transforming into one terrifying, twisted black sphere after another. Like shockwaves, they frantically smashed toward the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone.
In just a short moment, the Heaven-Burning Forbidden Zone was smashed into a pile of ruins.
After doing all this, he immediately rushed non-stop to the next forbidden zone.
Along the way, he felt a faint unease in his heart.
Abnormal, it was simply too abnormal.
Why had all these aloof masters of the forbidden zones acted like cowards hiding in their shells?
It was as if they all knew this Emperor.
But that should not be the case. This Emperor has always been kind to others, so why would everyone avoid me like a venomous snake or scorpion?
Unable to figure it out, Gu Qingfeng had to continue his journey, visiting the major forbidden zones one by one.
A month later...
Gu Qingfeng looked at the ruins beneath his feet, his whole body surging with boundless rage, completely unable to contain his anger!
Because this was the last forbidden zone!
In just one short month, he had successively trampled the last three forbidden zones flat, yet he had not even seen the shadow of a single forbidden zone master.
Has this Emperor been collectively blacklisted by the six great forbidden zones?
Damn it! How did these people know that this Emperor came to devour them? Who is it! Who leaked the secret!!
Having tossed about in vain for more than a month, Gu Qingfeng's fury soared. In his anger, he summoned Yan Lingxue out and ruthlessly taught her a lesson.
After venting his anger, Gu Qingfeng asked, Apart from the six great forbidden zones, where else are there Half-Step Immortal Monarchs?
With her hair disheveled, Yan Lingxue panted and said, The... The First Star Ruin. There might be Half-Step Immortal Monarchs there. The First Star Ruin is the strongest star ruin with extremely deep foundations, and there are quite a few Immortal King powerhouses. Now that a golden age is beginning to show, if there is anywhere a Half-Step Immortal Monarch could be born, it must be the First Star Ruin.
There might even exist some powerhouses from the previous era who have shaken off the curse.
Gu Qingfeng showed a thoughtful expression, planning to head to the First Star Ruin. However, before that, he still had to visit the Immortal Fall Battlefield in the latter half of the river of laws. Immortal Kings gathered there, and after all, even a mosquito's leg is still meat!
But he did not plan to devour them all; he could not do something like draining the pond to catch the fish.
In the future, advancing to Immortal Monarch and leaving the Meteor Abyss would entirely depend on these powerhouses. If he killed the powerhouses who had hope of advancing to Half-Step Immortal Monarch, how would he break through to Immortal Monarch later?
Could it be that he had to rely on his own cultivation?
What a joke! In this day and age, what proper person actually cultivates!
So, if he was going to devour them, he would only devour those Immortal Kings who had no hope in the Immortal Dao, the ones occupying positions without doing any work, clearly lacking potential yet taking up space.
Moreover, he could not easily kill them. It was best to only devour their cultivation base, then let them cultivate again. Once they recovered, he would devour them again, repeating the cycle.
On one hand, their continuous re-cultivation equated to solidifying their foundations; on the other hand, he also gained tangible benefits. It could be called a win-win situation!
Yes, that is exactly what I will do!
After making his future plans, Gu Qingfeng did not heartlessly throw Yan Lingxue into his palm world but kept her by his side.
After all, Yan Lingxue was currently the only Half-Step Immortal Monarch he could reach, so naturally, she could not be wasted. He had to let her cultivate properly and quickly recover her strength.
To help her, Gu Qingfeng even generously took out many immortal pills and miraculous medicines, as well as a large amount of transcendent substances, truly investing heavily.
As for why he did not let Yan Lingxue go to the palm world to cultivate, it was simple. With her realm, the palm world simply could not sustain her.
Just like a whale cannot be raised in a fishpond.
Subsequently, Gu Qingfeng boarded the White Bone Blood Boat and set off.
He sped all the way along the river of laws.
And several days after his departure, the entire Meteor Abyss once again experienced a violent earthquake.
Because some people inadvertently discovered that all six great forbidden zones in the entire river of laws had actually been annihilated.
Furthermore, above each ruined forbidden zone, there was dense, un-dissipated demonic energy. That kind of extreme, destructive aura simply did not seem like something that could exist in this world.
The news spread quickly. These powerhouses were not fools. The news of Gu Qingfeng annihilating the Asura Ghost Domain and the Forest of Rebirth had already spread previously. Moreover, the demonic energy left on the ruins of the other four forbidden zones was exactly the same as the demonic energy of the Asura Ghost Domain and the Forest of Rebirth.
Therefore, it was easy for the masses to guess that the World-Destroying Demon Emperor, Gu Qingfeng, had made his move!
Following the annihilation of two great forbidden grounds, in the short span of just a single month, he had actually destroyed the remaining four forbidden grounds one after another!
Just what kind of terrifying demonic might was this!?
The Six Great Forbidden Grounds had stood tall above the River of Laws for endless ages. Over the eras, countless supreme experts had ventured into these forbidden grounds to explore, only to meet a violent end.
Yet, such horrifying forbidden grounds had actually been completely wiped out by the same person in merely a month's time. Such strength was simply unheard of!
For a time, the title of the World-Destroying Demon Emperor once again resounded throughout the entire Fallen Star Abyss.
Everyone in the Fallen Star Abyss was left in a state of panic, fearing for their lives. A peerless, vicious demon had suddenly emerged, devouring living beings everywhere—how could they not be terrified?
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ... [The Eldest Princess's Diary] [When my soul was extracted, becoming the sole spectator outside my own shell] [At first, there was overwhelming fury, until I saw] [How he used my sword to effortlessly shatter my inescapable doom] [How he wielded my authority to eradicate fatal conspiracies I had never even detected] [Like a deity, he rescued me from the deep mire I was trapped in] [If not for those annoying vixens, he and I would be a match made in heaven] [I think I am ill, gravely ill] [My deity should belong to me alone] ... "Hypnosis? Oh, it succeeded, my dear Master." "Only this time, it's my turn to hypnotize you."
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...

Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
