As soon as Gu Changge's figure appeared in the courtyard of Purple Bamboo Peak, Little Black, who had been resting on the branches of the ancient tree with its eyes closed in concentration, suddenly opened its sharp eyes!
The aura of the peak Quasi-Emperor realm around its body fluctuated violently as it looked at Gu Changge's wrist in disbelief!
As a primeval mutant beast with a top-tier bloodline, it was extremely sensitive to the qi of heaven and earth, especially to powerful bloodlines of the same origin.
Although that aura was perfectly concealed, it clearly sensed that within the dark gold bracelet on Gu Changge's wrist, which looked like a mere decoration, lay a flawless Dao rhythm and a life-level pressure that surpassed the Quasi-Emperor realm, making even it feel threatened!
An Emperor! That was the aura of a true Emperor!
Screech—!
A short and sharp cry rang out, filled with shock and bewilderment.
Little Black flapped its wings, its body turning into a black line that the naked eye could hardly catch. In an instant, it landed on Gu Changge's shoulder. Its golden pupils stared fixedly at the dark gold bracelet, filled with scrutiny, vigilance, and a trace of unconcealable urgency!
At the same time, deep within the secret realm of the Azure Profound Sect, in a space of absolute silence where even time seemed to freeze.
A pair of eyes, seemingly containing the birth and death of the universe and eternal desolation, slowly opened.
It was none other than the Lord of Annihilation.
His previously tranquil state of mind rippled slightly at this moment. His divine sense silently swept across Purple Bamboo Peak and landed on the dark gold bracelet on Gu Changge's wrist.
Hmm? Another Emperor's aura. Although it has just entered this realm and its aura still needs to be stabilized, its Emperor status has already been formed. It is not a false Emperor.
The Divine Emperor of Annihilation thought to himself, a trace of imperceptible astonishment flashing in his indifferent eyes.
The Lord's methods are truly unfathomable. First, there was the peak Quasi-Emperor with the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline, and now he has somehow enlightened a Black Dragon Emperor from who knows where.
This seemingly ordinary sect has actually gathered such power silently.
As a veteran Emperor realm expert, he knew very well how difficult it was to cultivate a new Emperor in the current environment where the Great Dao was flawed. It was almost like going against the heavens.
Yet Gu Changge seemed to do it with ease, which made his evaluation of this mysterious Lord rise a few notches.
The eyes of the Lord of Annihilation then slowly closed, returning to silence as if nothing had happened. However, in the bottom of his heart, he had already taken note of this newly appeared Black Dragon Emperor.
At this time, Little White, who was wrapped around Gu Changge's wrist, naturally also sensed the arrival of Little Black and its peak Quasi-Emperor aura.
Little White understood in its heart: So you are Little Black, the Golden-Winged Great Peng on the Lord's shoulder. Hmph, if you hadn't taken this name, why would the Lord have named me Little White?
Of course, this thought only flashed by for a moment; it did not dare to show it in the slightest.
At the same time, Little Black's voice, filled with shock and deep doubt, rang out:
This aura... it's that little black flood dragon hiding in the abyss of the back mountain?! You actually became an Emperor before me?! How is this possible?
The Great Dao of this world is flawed, the Emperor's path is broken, and the Mandate of Heaven does not manifest. It is simply unable to support the birth of a new Emperor! How on earth did you do it?!
Little Black's voice was filled with a sense of urgency and disbelief. It had been stuck at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm for a long time and knew deeply the difficulty of breaking through, which was almost equivalent to defying the heavens. Seeing a latecomer surpass it at this moment, its mood was extremely complicated.
Hearing the unconcealable urgency in Little Black's tone, Little White immediately snorted lightly in its heart, and an indescribable sense of superiority arose spontaneously: Haha, you stole my name, but didn't I achieve the Emperor throne first? It seems that in the Master's heart, I am indeed the most valued!
It completely forgot that Gu Changge helped it break through initially just because he felt that using a True Dragon Emperor to pull his carriage would be more grand, and he could also cut off some Emperor dragon meat from time to time to satisfy his cravings...
This thought made it feel even more lighthearted, but on the surface, it became increasingly respectful, its voice carrying just the right amount of humility:
I was lucky to receive the Lord's pity and be granted an opportunity. I say, Little Black, you don't need to be anxious. With your foundation, if you have the Lord's help, breaking through the realm will not be difficult.
Gu Changge glanced at Little Black on his shoulder, whose feathers were already slightly puffed up, and then lowered his eyes to sweep over Little White on his wrist, who was pretending to be calm but actually exuding a trace of lightness in its aura. He saw through the thoughts of these two little guys as clearly as observing a fire.
He reached out and gently smoothed Little Black's ruffled feathers, speaking in a peaceful tone:
That's right, it is indeed the little flood dragon from the back mountain. It is now the Black Dragon Emperor, named Little White.
He paused, looked at the restless Little Black on his shoulder, and continued: You have indeed been stuck at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm for some time. Your foundation has long been polished to flawless perfection. If it weren't for the restrictions of this world, with your bloodline and accumulation, you should have taken that step long ago.
Hearing this, the urgency in Little Black's eyes grew stronger. It let out a low purr and rubbed its head against Gu Changge's cheek, full of longing.
Gu Changge smiled faintly: Very well, the time has come. Today, I will help you break through this heavenly chasm.
After saying that, he gently flicked his sleeve, and an invisible power instantly enveloped Little Black on his shoulder.
In the next instant, the figures of Gu Changge and Little Black disappeared together from the courtyard of Purple Bamboo Peak, entering that small world that far surpassed the Xuanhuang Great World, where the Great Dao was complete and flawless.
Right at the moment their figures disappeared, in the medicine field, Lao Huang, who was dozing off, groggily raised his head, his huge ox eyes full of confusion.
He seemed to have... heard the Lord speaking just now? What did he say?
Mhm...? Emperor? Back mountain, little black flood dragon? What's going on?
Lao Huang tried hard to prick up his ears, but only caught a few vague words. He scratched his head with his hoof, looking annoyed.
Ah! It's all because I fell asleep just now and didn't hear clearly! I'm dying of anxiety! The Lord and the others are being so mysterious, is there some good thing they are hiding from old Lao Huang?
He stretched his neck and looked towards the center of the courtyard, but where were the figures of Gu Changge and Little Black? There was only a faint trace of spatial fluctuation left in the air.
Lao Huang smacked his lips, his heart itching as if scratched by a cat, but he didn't dare to investigate. He could only resentfully lie back on the ground, muttering:
Forget it, forget it. If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. I, old ox, should just watch over my own little plot of land... However, the word 'Emperor' is not something to be said casually...
He muttered to himself, always feeling that something incredible had happened.
Inside the small world, the vast chaotic qi surged, and the complete laws of the Great Dao clearly manifested.
As soon as Little Black entered this place, it felt a world environment completely different from the outside. That layer of invisible shackles that had always suppressed it and prevented it from breaking through seemed to be nonexistent here!
It excitedly let out a loud and clear cry that resounded through the clouds. The peak Quasi-Emperor aura around its body was no longer suppressed and began to climb madly, triggering the resonance of the Great Dao in the small world!
The Emperor Tribulation belonging to the Golden-Winged Great Peng was about to descend!
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.”
and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
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.
