Right at the moment when the sphere of light that purified everything exploded deep within the Godfall Ruin, its brilliance dissipating to leave only the mournful wail of the dying Dao—
Throughout the entire Xuanhuang Great World, any expert whose cultivation had reached the Saint level and could faintly sense that distant battle in the Forbidden Zone felt their soul tremble violently. It was as if they had heard the deafening crash of a massive pillar supporting the world suddenly snapping!
That was no ordinary death, but the complete dissipation of a Supreme mark branded into the very origin of the myriad Daos!
A Forbidden Zone Supreme Being, who had once looked down upon the changing of epochs and treated all living beings as mere straw dogs, had truly been wiped out in both body and soul!
At the same time, beneath the firmament, another region was deathly silent.
The Liuli Holy Land, with its legacy of ten thousand years, had been reduced to a massive, bottomless abyss. Only a few melted glazed crystals at the edges remained to prove that it had ever existed.
The air was thick with the chaotic origin energy from the shattered spirit veins and the faint scent of dust, devoid of any trace of its former immortal majesty.
All the cultivators who witnessed this, whether they were the divine senses of hidden giants or cultivators from various factions watching from afar, stood as still as clay statues, unable to recover their wits for a long time.
The shock of this double subversion of their understanding was like two divine mountains collapsing simultaneously, completely overwhelming everyone's minds!
Fallen... a true Forbidden Zone Supreme Being... has actually fallen?
The voice of a great sect's patriarch was dry, as if he were sleepwalking. And the Liuli Holy Land... is gone too?!
That was a Forbidden Zone Supreme Being!
An ancient fiend who had launched more than one Dark Turmoil, using billions of living beings as blood food, harvesting the origin of life to prolong their own existence!
A terrifying existence that had forced many Great Emperors to crusade against the Forbidden Zones, only to either merely suppress them or return without success!
The ultimate threat that pressed down upon the heads of all living things like the Sword of Damocles, keeping the human race and all myriad spirits perpetually shrouded in the dark clouds of extinction!
Their very existence was a living, bloody history of disaster!
How many heroes had spilled their blood in the desolate borders? How many Great Emperors had died with regrets? But now...
And such an existence had not fallen to the crusade of a Great Emperor, but had perished together with an Imperial Weapon in a sudden, almost martyr-like confrontation.
As for the Liuli Holy Land, it was hailed as immortal through the ages, coexisting with the world. It had weathered countless storms, even surviving the Dark Turmoils!
For so many years, it had been an existence looked up to by countless cultivators, yet today, it was truly destroyed! It was not just their gates being breached or their legacy being interrupted, but their earth vein foundations, their ten thousand years of accumulation, and every last trace of them had been turned to ash!
A Supreme Being is just gone like that? A Holy Land has vanished into thin air just like that?
The patriarch of another ancient family muttered to himself, his old eyes filled with a dazed disbelief that soon turned into a deeply complex sigh of lament.
Ancient texts record that the Godfall Ruin once launched a turmoil, turning billions of miles into scorched earth. At that time, not even one in ten of my clansmen survived. And now... heh heh...
If Great Emperor Liuli has a spirit in heaven, I wonder if they would feel gratified or sigh in sorrow...
Someone whispered, voicing the thoughts of many.
The Imperial Weapon destroyed itself. To atone for its sins, it dragged a Forbidden Zone Supreme Being down with it. What absolute resolve! The Liuli Holy Land was indeed corrupt, but the merits of Great Emperor Liuli... sigh!
An elder of the Taixuan Holy Land murmured, his emotions incredibly complicated.
His words seemed to flip a switch. The dead silence was broken, and various complex sighs and low murmurs of discussion began to rise.
Alas, the Great Emperor's merits cannot be erased, yet their descendants fell so far, implicating the Imperial Weapon into shameful self-destruction. How tragic, how lamentable...
For a time, across the Five Domains, countless old antiques and living fossil-like existences fell into a long silence and indescribable, complex emotions.
But immediately after, a highly complex emotion surged in their hearts. It was the fear of witnessing a legend shatter, but it was also mixed with an indescribable thrill of witnessing history!
It was worth it! This life is truly worth it!
An old man who looked like a rogue cultivator suddenly muttered to himself. His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an almost maddened excitement. His eyes shone brightly as he stared fixedly at the abyss, as if to carve this scene into his very bones.
A Holy Land annihilated! An Imperial Weapon self-destructing! A Forbidden Zone Supreme Being dragged down to the grave! Such a spectacle has never been seen in all of eternity! For me to see it with my own eyes, even if I were to die right now, this life would not be in vain!
These words seemed to express what many were thinking.
Meanwhile, deep within the Godfall Ruin, where the demonic clouds had been briefly dispersed, several even older and more terrifying auras were violently restless.
They let out furious roars tinged with an indescribable disbelief, roars that even pierced through layers of spatial barriers, causing the minds of the Saint-level experts spying from afar to sway!
How many tens of thousands of years has it been?! Since the end of the ancient era, after the Age of Fallen Emperors, we have slumbered here, looking down upon the changing of epochs, viewing all living beings as ants and straw dogs! When has a Supreme Being ever been obliterated by external forces?!!
Who is it?! Just who is it?! That final power of the Liuli Lamp surpassed the Extreme Dao! It touched upon... Impossible! This world has long ceased to tolerate the existence of such power!
The fall of a Supreme Being was not as simple as losing an ally; it was a monumental event that shook the very foundation of the Forbidden Zones' eternal immortality and transcendence beyond the mundane!
Investigate! We must find out the truth at all costs! This grudge must be avenged! But... we must be cautious!
The Forbidden Zone trembled with monstrous killing intent, but hidden beneath this monstrous killing intent was a remarkably rare trace of forcefully suppressed terror!
Among the observing cultivators, the giants of the top-tier factions were dreadfully silent.
They understood what this meant far better than the rogue cultivators.
The might of an Imperial Weapon's self-destruction is indeed earth-shattering, but to so decisively drag a Forbidden Zone Supreme Being at their peak down to the grave... it is absolutely impossible with just a remnant spirit.
A living fossil-like existence spoke slowly, his voice extremely solemn.
That mysterious fluctuation at the end, which gave the Imperial Weapon a final burst of life and allowed it to unleash power surpassing the Extreme Dao, is the key. Just what kind of power was that? To be able to bestow blessings across space, defy the heavens and change fate, and accomplish such a feat of slaughtering a Supreme Being? Could it be that the Path of the Emperor is not yet severed?!
The most terrifying thing is the existence behind those young people...
Another Holy Land elder chimed in, his voice hoarse with fear. That mysterious great demon actually possesses strength close to the Emperor Realm, forcing an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon to destroy itself to prove its resolve! It is too terrifying!
Everyone's gazes involuntarily turned toward the few young figures at the edge of the abyss, filled with indescribable awe and fear.
Many who had previously harbored designs on the Seven-Star Secret Order now felt their backs drenched in cold sweat, washed over by a wave of lingering fear.
Not a single person dared to harbor even a shred of greed toward the Seven-Star Secret Order or the clues to the Undying Divine Medicine ever again!
The annihilation of the Liuli Holy Land was the bloodiest, most terrifying example!
This had already surpassed ordinary sect grievances; this was a complete shattering of established order and understanding!
This chapter is written very poorly, so everyone please just make do with it for now. When I have time, I will revise it again.
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."

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... 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.”
