The Demon Emperor Turning His Back on All Living Beings

Even if Lan Caidie was overly confident, she knew she couldn't let Gu Qingfeng continue devouring. After all, she only held a portion of the world's authority, not all of it.

She was merely a concubine; the Immortal Venerable naturally wouldn't hand over the entire authority of the world to her.

At this moment, the power of all the immortals was converging upon Gu Qingfeng. The aura radiating from him grew increasingly oppressive. Just standing there, he seemed capable of crushing the entire world.

"Die!"

Lan Caidie shouted sharply. With a wave of her jade-like hand, the billions of immortal sword phantoms suspended high in the nine heavens instantly erupted with waves of dazzling golden light.

They turned entirely golden, as if cast from immortal gold. Accompanied by roaring thunder, countless dense and terrifying lightning patterns surfaced on the billions of sword phantoms.

The next moment, the billions of immortal sword phantoms vibrated, soared across the sky, and intertwined, forming an exceptionally profound sword array diagram. Boundless golden lightning flashed upon it, and golden arcs of electricity danced like a wildly spreading spider web, forming a massive heaven and earth prison that enveloped the entire realm.

"Heaven and Earth Prison!"

Lan Caidie shouted again. The golden divine lightning on the immortal swords spread madly, bursting with waves of blindingly brilliant lightning. A terrifying, world-destroying aura poured out, surging in all directions.

This move had a massive area of effect, covering a radius of a million miles around the Myriad Demon Hall. It could be said that if this attack landed solidly, all the immortals present would die.

Except for the Immortal Monarchs. Immortal Monarch experts could use the power of their own inner worlds to resist head-on, so they wouldn't be instantly killed, but they would still suffer severe injuries.

This terrifying magical ability made the immortals' expressions change drastically. Even though everyone present was a formidable expert, they couldn't help but feel despair at this moment.

It truly was a situation of having a wolf in front and a tiger behind.

The World-Destroying Demon Emperor was devouring everyone's power on one side, and Lan Caidie was about to unleash indiscriminate destruction on the other.

At this moment, the crowd actually faintly hoped in their hearts that the World-Destroying Demon Emperor would win. For no other reason than choosing the lesser of two evils.

After all, according to the World-Destroying Demon Emperor's style, if he won, they would at most lose their cultivation bases but wouldn't lose their lives. Otherwise, it wouldn't align with the Demon Emperor's philosophy of recyclable usage.

But if Lan Caidie won, they would probably all die.

The two sides had different stances. Lan Caidie stood in opposition to the immortals. As the Immortal Venerable's concubine, she naturally had to uphold the Immortal Venerable's rule.

Now that the eras in the Meteor Abyss were in chaos and countless experts were reviving, if this force were to gather, it would very likely cause trouble, especially while the Immortal Venerable was slumbering.

Therefore, Lan Caidie's descent to the lower realm this time was to purge these experts who shouldn't still be alive in the world.

After all, Lan Caidie's role was similar to that of the Little Corpse Charm in Gu Qingfeng's demon domain.

As Gu Qingfeng's number one favored concubine, if anyone caused trouble in the Eternal Demon Domain, the Little Corpse Charm would naturally suppress them as well.

She also controlled a portion of the authority within the Eternal Demon Domain. It could be said that the Little Corpse Charm was invincible within the Eternal Demon Domain.

Unless a cheat-like existence similar to Gu Qingfeng appeared in the Eternal Demon Domain, it was almost impossible for her to be defeated.

Boom!

The terrifying Heaven and Earth Prison ruthlessly suppressed toward Gu Qingfeng. Accompanied by a terrifying and taboo supreme sword might, it erupted with billions of golden divine radiances. Terrifying laws of heaven and earth intertwined within it, dyeing the entire world a swath of gold.

The void in all directions trembled wildly, looking as if the world was being destroyed!

This terrifying attack plunged the immortals straight into despair. In their current state, it could be said that they would undoubtedly die.

First there was Lan Caidie's suppression, then Gu Qingfeng's devouring. As a result, the immortals were weakened to the extreme. They couldn't move at all and could only watch helplessly as the Heaven and Earth Prison descended.

But right at this moment, a stalwart figure with demonic might as deep as the abyss stood in front of the crowd, leaving everyone with only a view of his back.

It was none other than Gu Qingfeng!

In this moment of crisis, he chose to step forward, directly facing the collapsing heavens while turning his back to the masses!

"If the end of the world truly comes, this Emperor shall stand before millions, swing his sword toward the abyss, and protect the common people!!"

A firm and resolute voice issued from that figure's mouth, deafeningly loud and spreading across the entire scene.

At this moment, everyone stared blankly at that stalwart back. Under the sky full of sword rain, that back appeared exceptionally small, but in the hearts of the crowd, it was elevated infinitely!

The crowd felt an inexplicable emotion in their hearts.

They suddenly felt that no matter how much evil the World-Destroying Demon Emperor committed, or how much he opposed everyone, that was still an internal matter among them.

When external enemies appeared, they should unite as one and face the outside threat together.

For a time, many immortals gradually gave up their resistance, allowing Gu Qingfeng to extract the power from their bodies. Some even actively poured their power into his ghost god tentacles.

Gu Qingfeng's power once again surged unstoppably!

He had already decided to swear to the death to protect the crowd—anyway, he couldn't die.

After all, the crowd's power hadn't been fully extracted yet; he couldn't let them die so easily.

Feeling the infinitely expanding power within his body, Gu Qingfeng made his move!

The Heaven's Heart Dao Sword appeared in his hand, and a terrifying, taboo, and supreme sword intent spewed from his body.

Buzz!!

The sword's hum surged like a tide. An obscure and mysterious aura permeated the blade like primordial chaos. As he slashed out with a single strike, a terrifying sword might that overwhelmed the heavens and the earth burst forth.

In an instant, the world shattered into countless pieces like a torn canvas. The void raged like a storm, continuously collapsing, twisting, and being destroyed!

Such sword might made even Lan Caidie, who held a portion of the world's authority, change her expression. It was simply because Gu Qingfeng's power was too tyrannical, full of supreme, taboo, and mysterious qualities.

This sword strike could be considered Gu Qingfeng's peak attack.

The reason he chose to use a sword was that he had devoured the sword Dao foundations of Lin Daoxuan's previous nine lives. As the number one expert of all eternity, Lin Daoxuan's sword Dao foundation was incredibly powerful.

Therefore, the sword Dao leaped to become Gu Qingfeng's strongest method of attack.

However, he didn't just copy Lin Daoxuan's sword Dao. Instead, he used the sword Dao as a vessel and the demonic Dao as the core, fusing the two together to ultimately unleash an immeasurable power.

As for using someone else's sword Dao, Gu Qingfeng didn't care at all. Anyway, once he killed Lin Daoxuan, it would become his own sword Dao.

Hmm, a sword Dao condensed through ten lifetimes of bitter cultivation—it sounded quite inspiring.

"Today, this Emperor will use this single sword to break your myriad swords!"

Rumble!

Gu Qingfeng's dazzling sword strike collided with the Heaven and Earth Prison. The terrifying power instantly crushed all directions, and raging torrents of destruction surged through the world like a hurricane.

Lan Caidie's billions of sword rains were ground away inch by inch, and her expression grew increasingly solemn. Seeing that her Heaven and Earth Prison was about to be broken, she flipped her palm and actually took out another supreme treasure.

It was a fiery red small cauldron, about the size of a palm.

But as Lan Caidie tossed it out, the fiery red small cauldron instantly expanded to the size of a mountain and crashed down.

Bang!

The fiery red cauldron exploded with a loud ring. Divine flames as dazzling as the sun erupted from the cauldron, seeming capable of melting heaven and earth, threatening to completely submerge this entire realm.

A strange look flashed across Gu Qingfeng's eyes.

To think this little wench was quite favored, bringing out supreme treasures one after another.

Presumably, she was good in bed.

Or perhaps she possessed a famous bodily asset.

It was no wonder he had such thoughts. After all, the Immortal Venerable ruled the Meteor Abyss, and throughout the eternal eras, who knew how many beauties he had roped in.

Anyway, if Gu Qingfeng were the one in charge, he would definitely claim the number one beauty of every era for himself.

Therefore, although Lan Caidie possessed outstanding beauty, she might not necessarily rank at the very top if placed among a multitude of peerless beauties.

Yet she had been bestowed with so many treasures. There could only be one explanation: this woman must possess some extraordinary hidden skills.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingfeng looked at Lan Caidie's delicate body. A surge of heat rose in his heart, and the scarlet demonic light in his eyes burned even more fiercely.
