<h4>Chapter 747: Everything is already predetermined, what a poor guy</h4>


    “I think I’ll continue to keep in the dark and be used by you if you don’t expose your true face.”


    “But! Do you really think that I wouldn’t dare to kill you?”


    Upon hearing Gu Changge’s words, the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s face turned incredibly cold. Within the depths of his eyes, terrifying images appeared, causing the surrounding starry field to copse and crumble.


    He was extremely furious and decided to eliminate Gu Changge in this universe without any mercy.


    <strong>Rumble!!!</strong>


    The entire universe trembled, on the brink of being torn apart. The immense pressure felt like the wrath of the heavens, capable of destroying everything.


    Under this force, the entire universe cracked andrge spider web-like fissures appeared.


    Countless cyclones and chaotic Qi swept from distant ces, forming storms that seemed to herald the end of the world.


    Now that Gu Changge and the Reincarnated Heaven Lord had torn off all pretenses, he no longer concealed his intentions. His killing intent manifested as tangible real divine weapons that rang out, piercing through this universe.


    “Why, Master, must we resort to violence against each other?” Gu Changge smiled faintly and gestured, causing the void in front of him to split open, revealing a terrifying ck hole that devoured all the light and Dao order in the world.


    At this moment, he naturally wanted to kill the Reincarnated Heaven Lord and take all of what he owned. Moreover, he thought this ce as the perfect location to bury the Reincarnated Heaven Lord.


    “I’m curious to see what you’re capable of, to be so audacious and daring to plot against me,” the Reincarnated Heaven Lord said with a calm face. His robe radiated light, and one by one, divine runes of the Dao flew out, summoning various Heavenly soldiers—Dark Sky Sword, Golden Ancient Bell, Bronze Emperor’s bell—these were all divine weapons that had manifested in mythological times.


    They were not mere illusions but solid manifestations, possessing vast and terrifying power. Each Heavenly soldier radiated boundless light, like zing suns, continuously releasing their power as they charged towards Gu Changge.


    In addition to this, behind the Reincarnated Heaven Lord, a terrifying ck-and-white millstone emerged. Intense vitality and death energy intertwined and pervaded the surroundings. Fragments of shattered time floated in the air, crashing down with thunderous force, causing the entire universe to continuously rupture. As it was unable to withstand this aura.


    This millstone the Wheel of Life and Death, possessing the power of reincarnation. Even a single wisp of its aura contained the potential for world-ending destruction.


    It had to be said that as a character from the mythological era, even in the current era, the Reincarnated Heaven Lord possessed incredibly terrifying abilities. No Dao-building expert or cultivator could possibly withstand his current powers; they would be pierced through, body and soul annihted.


    <i>“Even a real Remnant-Immortal wouldn’t stand a chance against him.”</i>


    “You cut off your cultivation level from the true immortal realm, that is why your strength surpasses that of remnant-Immortals by a considerable margin,” Gu Changge observed the Reincarnated Heaven Lord, his eyes also flickering with ck and white hues.


    He could clearly see the strands of Immortal Dao rules manifesting around the Reincarnated Heaven Lord. Though they were notplete, they were undeniably real. These Immortal Dao rules solidified into shing des and heavenly swords, converging from all directions with incredible force.


    Under the Immortal Realm, all were insignificant, even Dao-building experts and cultivators were merely slightlyrger ants.


    “What does it matter even if you’ve figured it out? It’s merely the Immortal realm. For me, it’s merely nothing. You can neverprehend my aspirations,” the Reincarnated Heaven Lord sneered, his attacks bing even more ruthless as the Wheel of Reincarnation continued to descend.


    Simultaneously, he unfurled a tattered banner, instantly expanding it to cover the entire universe, obscuring the sun and sky, emitting a profound and ancient iron-blooded aura.


    The banner was tattered, with holes in some ces, stained with colorful blood that had never dried up, even in the present day. It revealed the rotation of countless stars and created its own world, endless and horrifying.


    The colorful blood was terrifying, reflecting the multitude of heavenly universes. Just the aura it emanated caused the universe to burst open, and chaotic Qi surged to the edges of the world.


    “The Iron-Blooded Battle g once bore the blood of an Immortal King. Consider it an honor that I’ll use it to obliterate you,” the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s gaze was icy, as he had already regarded Gu Changge as a dead man.


    He possessed numerous treasures on his body, though he couldn’t unleash their true power. But in his eyes, killing Gu Changge was more than achievable. No matter how powerful Gu Changge was, he was still a junior, and it’s impossible that his umted foundation could match his own. Moreover, he believed that his skills far surpassed Gu Changge’s.


    “The g once stained with the blood of an Immortal King, but s, time has rotted it away,” Gu Changge sighed, his expression unchanged.


    ck Dao runes floated around him, resembling a surging sea of darkness, suddenly converging into a dark Immortal Furnace. From it erupted scorching dark divine mes, countering the pressure from the Iron-Blooded Battle g.


    While his cultivation might indeed be inferior to the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s, in terms of power, Gu Changge didn’t believe that there was anyone in the upper realm who could challenge him.


    “Even though it’s decayed, it’s enough to kill you.”


    “If you’re sensible, hand over the Origin Runes you obtained from the Absolute Heavenly Extinction, and I may spare your life with your body intact,” the Reincarnated Heaven Lord dered as his feet moved rapidly, the Iron-Blooded Battle g billowing behind him, and the Wheel of Reincarnation hovering above his head, rushing towards Gu Changge.


    Gu Changge responded with a faint smile, raising his palm for greeting effortlessly. Countless Dao rules and orders swirled around him like an ocean, directly resisting the Iron-Blooded Battle g, creating a terrifying spectacle that shook the river of time.


    <strong>Boom!!</strong>


    The sh between the two sent shockwaves that had long surpassed the confines of this universe, sweeping across the surrounding worlds, causing space to rupture and the universe to copse.


    All the cultivators and beings who had previously united to confront the monstrous beings of the Immortal Gate couldn’t help but tremble with fear. They felt as if their souls were freezing. This level of power far exceeded their imagination, even surpassing the monstrous beings within the Immortal gate.


    At this moment, they even felt like true Immortals had descended upon them.


    “What’s happening? Why do I suddenly feel that an ultimate being is battling there?”


    “Even the legendary River of Time has manifested…”


    They trembled and fell to their knees, their souls quaking with extreme fear.


    Unfortunately, Gu Changge and the Reincarnated Heaven Lord had already moved beyond the confines of the universe, their figures bing blurry, as if they were battling within the river of time itself.


    Surrounding them was nothingness and a chaotic sea, with boiling rules and fragments of the Great Dao floating around, creating a horrifying spectacle.


    “I’m actually quite curious about what other secrets you have besides raising these Dao-building experts and cultivators to be devoured by you,” Gu Changge said with a faint smile. “Where have you hidden the Dao Fruits you’ve umted all along?”


    He then threw a punch, and a surge of golden light filled the space, colliding with the Reincarnated Heaven Lord. Vast waves of power radiated outwards, like exploding suns.


    Around him, an endless primal divine light emanated, as if three thousand ancient worlds were rising and falling, vague yet supremely lofty. The radiant silver light resonated, unleashing a vast and magnificent force that obliterated everything before him.


    <strong>Rumble!!</strong>


    It was as if the power of the entire universe descended, reaching a terrifying peak, even causing the chaotic Qi to rupture.


    <strong>“Puff……”</strong>


    The Reincarnated Heaven Lord spurted out blood, flying backward. There were traces of spasms in the arm that shed with Gu Changge, apanied by the sound of bones cracking. Blood sprayed, staining his robe crimson.


    His expression gradually darkened. He hadn’t expected that even the Iron-Blooded Battle g, tainted with the blood of an Immortal King, couldn’t harm Gu Changge. Although the g’s power was severely restricted due to the environment of the world, it was still not something that a Dao-building expert or cultivator could resist.


    Around Gu Changge, it was as if an invisible field existed, capable of absorbing and nullifying all attacks directed at him, as if nothing could touch him, as if he were immune to all of the Dao technologies in the world.


    “Who are you really? Are you just testing me?” At this moment, the Reincarnated Heaven Lord finally sensed that something was amiss and spoke with a low growl.


    Unless he unleashed his true Immortal power, he wouldn’t be able to deal with Gu Changge. Their strengths in this battle had already reached the pinnacle that the world could bear. Furthermore, he felt that Gu Changge was probing his abilities and hadn’t yet revealed his true strength.


    A sense of unease began to creep over him, consuming his mind. The Reincarnated Heaven Lord couldn’t believe it. He had survived from the mythological era to the present day, with numerous schemes and astonishing abilities, yet he couldn’t handle someone like Gu Changge. It was as if Gu Changge were an abyss of terror, the more he knew, the more fearful and anxious he became.


    “It’s quite dull that you only realize this now, since you didn’t say anything, I have to investigate it myself.” Gu Changge said, shaking his head as the faint smile on his face faded.


    He had been testing the Reincarnated Heaven Lord all along to thoroughly understand his abilities, not topletely eliminate him. After all, the Reincarnation Heaven Lord was an excellent puppet in Gu Changge’s eyes.


    “What do you mean?” The Reincarnated Heaven Lord stared intently at Gu Changge, and the ck-and-white aura from the Wheel of Reincarnation above his head formed a cycle, eternal and unending, enveloping and protecting himpletely.


    That sense of unease and anxiety washed over him again. It was as if there was an invisible closing in on him.


    In the next moment, a terrifying ck light cleaved through from the front, as if it shattered eternity, ruptured the heavens, and shed across the cosmos and the river of time. All traces were extinguished in the wake of this strike, turning into dust.


    <strong>Puff!!</strong>


    The Reincarnated Heaven Lord couldn’t believe it. He stared wide-eyed, unable to react in time. He felt a sudden chill in his forehead, as if something cold had pierced through his head.


    <i>“What… what is this….??”</i>


    His voice came in fits and starts, his consciousness already enveloped and devoured by endless silence and fear.


    At this moment, he suddenly recalled the moment from the Forbidden Era when a simr strike had crossed the heavens and worlds, as grand and terrifying as this one, annihting everything, breaking all.


    The Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s heart was filled with shock, disbelief, and extreme dread. How could this be? How could Gu Changge possibly be that person?


    Unfortunately, at this moment, his life force was dissipating, and there was no one to answer his questions. Even though his soul was incredibly resilient and had been tempered over countless ages, it now bore numerous cracks and was beginning to disintegrate like fragile porcin.


    Gu Changge held the Eight Deste Demon Halberd, pointing it southward, walking slowly. In an instant, he traversed the entire cosmos. His expression remained unchanged, but he looked at the Reincarnated Heaven Lord with a hint of pity.


    <i>“Speaking of which, you are quite fortunate to die beneath the Eight Deste Demon Halberd. After all these years, this is the first time I’ve truly wielded it…”</i>


    During his time in the central region of the Upper Realm, Gu Changge had never truly unleashed the power of the Eight Deste Demon Halberd or demonstrated its overwhelming demonic might. It was, after all, a weapon capable of destroying worlds.


    Even now, Gu Changge couldn’t fully unleash its true power. Thanks to the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s n, he had brought Gu Changge to this remote area where the shockwaves of their battle wouldn’t reach the center of the upper realm, alerting the cultivators there.


    Everything had been predestined from the beginning, but the Reincarnated Heaven Lord remainedpletely unaware, mistakenly believing that victory was in his grasp.


    <i>“You are a pitiful fellow. In that case, I shall ept everything you have.”</i>


    For Gu Changge, these divine souls were not only nourishment but also repositories of the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s many secrets. Additionally, within the soul pce of these divine soulsy the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s umtions and reserves from all these countless years: Dao immortal scriptures, immortal weapons, Immortal Medicine Seeds, fragmented immortal treasures, immortal elixirs, and sacred roots of immortality, among many other good things.


    What wasmonly referred to as a “Dao Field ” was essentially here. After his death, all of these treasures would naturally be Gu Changge’s. As for the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s physical body, Gu Changge casually collected it, intending to refine it at ater time. Currently, what he cared most about was the Dao Fruits that Reincarnated Heaven Lord collected countless years.


    In the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s n, these Dao Fruits were crucial to his breakthrough to the Immortal King’s realm. When the Reincarnated Heaven Lord originally cultivated the Path of Reincarnation and delved into the river of time, he reached a point where further progress seemed impossible. Achieving the position of an Immortal King appeared to be an insurmountable challenge.


    Therefore, the Reincarnated Heaven Lord resorted to the drastic measure of self-severing from the Immortal Realm and reducing his cultivation base to pursue an alternative path toward the Dao Fruit of an Immortal King.


    “All the Dao Fruits he has umted are contained within each of his Dao avatars, and these Dao avatars are scattered throughout the vast ancient cosmos, in great numbers.”


    <i>“In this case, there are quite a few Dao Fruits, and for me, they represent a shortcut to rapidly advance my cultivation level after breaking through to the Immortal Realm, saving me from many difficulties.”</i>


    Gu Changge’s thoughts turned, and he looked towards the ancient cosmos they had passed through with the Reincarnated Heaven Lord. When he thought about it, the Reincarnated Heaven Lord had indeed bestowed upon him a great gift.


    Gu Changge’s gaze then shifted, and a Dao Treasure Vessel appeared in his hand. A boundless ck radiance enveloped it, swallowing up the dissipating divine soul of the Reincarnated Heaven Lord.
