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?

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
