Chapter 939: What can be changed by giving a hundred epochs? One of the strongest


    <em>He decided to change the world using his own body to protect the ordinary people.</em>


    All the ancestors in the ancestral hall of the Gu family were astonished by this revtion. It seemed that, ording to the words of the ck-robed old man, he became entangled in that catastrophic event.


    Who was the distant ancestor of the Gu family?


    A person who, relying solely on their strength, saved both themon people and all spirits?


    The world plunged into darkness, the universe copsing, the entire world extinguished in endless darkness, with war, fire, blood, and chaos prevailing. Yet, there was this individual standing under the sky, resisting all adversaries, and enduring eternally. What kind of courage and determination did this require? Though they had never witnessed it, at this moment, they were all filled with awe and reverence for their distant ancestors. It seemed that the unyielding will and great courage still coursed through their blood.


    “I never expected my Gu family’s origin to be like this,” whispered an old ancestor in admiration.


    “The ancient times, with their endless years, have passed away. The distant ancestor was buried in heaven and earth, and his essence permeated ten thousand realms. This real world of mountains and seas only came into existence because of his original blessing…” The ck-robed old man’s profound and solemn words echoed again, revealing this hidden truth.


    Once again, everyone was left in shock. Even the real world of mountains and seas existed because of the legacy of a distant ancestor. What kind of unpredictable and terrible power was this? It was simply beyond imagination and description. Even Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors were as inconsequential as dust in the face of such a revtion.“Our lineage relocated here solely to safeguard the true spirit left behind by the distant ancestor, enabling his potential resurrection.”


    “Even after the passage of ancient times and countless changes, the distant ancestor can still return.”


    The ck-robed old man’s eyes slowly scanned the crowd, his voice t and low, yet conveying unwavering determination. He sought to exin this secret to the present Gu family ancestors, urging them toprehend the significance of their lineage.


    The Gu family in the world of mountains and seas was considered the lineage of the vast heavens. With an impending catastrophe, the old man feltpelled to share this knowledge in advance, fearing the Gu family might descend into chaos without prior information. The family members were unfamiliar with managing themselves in this world, adding to the urgency of informing them.


    “The barriers outside the Immortal Domain can no longer withstand the pressure, and there’s a risk of gaps forming,” the old man exined.


    “Though I’m not afraid of the hunters across the vast expanse, I don’t want the Gu family to suffer in this disaster. Sharing this information is to guide you away from the real world of mountains and seas, directing you towards the Nine Heavens.”


    He emphasized that the Nine Heavens served as the true main line of the Gu family and the authentic resting ce of distant ancestors. As the “Ninth Patriarch” who established the Gu family in the real world of mountains and seas, he alone possessed this knowledge.


    The rest of the Gu family, including the other ancestors, had been unaware of these details until now. The Gu family’s ancient origin was not only burdened with age but also held the significant responsibility of resurrecting their distant ancestors.


    “Nine Heavens, the root of the legendary immortal? The source of all immortals…” an astonished old ancestor mused. The revtion that the true main line of the Gu family resided in the legendary Nine Heavens caught them off guard.


    Before this, they had heard rumors about the Nine Heavens,prehending it as a transcendent ce. Cultivators before Immortal Ancient spent their lives seeking its location, with various spections and imaginative tales leaving a legacy for future generations.


    Even the Immortal Pce, once the dominant force in the real world of mountains and seas, had sought the location of the Nine Heavens, with some individuals reaching its hallowed grounds. Despite the world viewing the Nine Heavens as a symbol of sanctity, it held a different, less revered meaning for cultivators.


    “The Nine Heavens isn’t as sacred as you might believe. It’s essentially a burial ground for many things,” the ck-robed old man expressed with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. He shook his head and, finally returning to a calm tone, allowed the information to settle among the people in the ancestral hall.


    Having learned so much news and secrets at once, the ancestors, despite their formidable cultivation, needed time to digest the information.


    “Are we going to begin migrating now? Are we to abandon everything in the real world of mountains and seas?” Some ancestors contemted, expressing reluctance to evacuate after having lived there for numerous years. It wasn’t easy to sever emotional ties to a ce.


    “If you can evacuate swiftly, then do so. The current immortal domain isn’t a ce for a long-term stay,” the ck-robed old man advised. Though unafraid of the hunters beyond the boundless, he preferred not to expend too much energy on these matters until the distant ancestors were truly resurrected.


    In his heart, nothing held greater importance than the resurrection of the ancestors. However, he refrained from divulging the details of the resurrection process, and the Gu family’s ancestors did not press him for more information.


    “Doesn’t this mean the immortal domain will bepletely destroyed in the near future, ording to what the ancestor mentioned? Even if numerous ancient beings are revived, won’t it make a difference?” Some individuals were unwilling to abandon the homnd that had sheltered the Gu family for generations.


    The ck-robed old man, in response, continued to shake his head. Though there were more words to be spoken, he chose to remain reticent.


    Historically, his existence was traced back to the inception of the mountains and sea’s true world, predating the era of innate mythology. This granted him a vision that surpassed all others, enabling him to easily gauge the magnitude of the impending catastrophe facing the Immortal Domain.


    In terms of cultivation, he surpassed even the Immortal Emperor, rooted in the Void Dao Realm, and persevered through two declines. Within the current real world of mountains and seas, few could rival his power, except for Gu Changge, reincarnated as the demon lord.


    Confident in his judgment, he believed that remaining in the real world of mountains and seas would only result in unnecessary loss. The ancestors in the ancestral hall remained silent, recognizing that any decision they made held no sway in the presence of the old man who founded the Gu family.


    “The old man is doing this solely to protect the Gu family,” his voice carried the weight of time, offering minimal exnation.


    A sudden voice from outside the ancestral hall interrupted the somber atmosphere. Gu Changge appeared, walking over with a natural expression. The ancestors were shocked by his unexpected presence, though, in terms of seniority, they were Gu Changge’s ancestors. His true identity, however, as the World Destroyer Demon Lord, overshadowed their significance.


    “Since it is to protect the Gu family, why do you want to abandon the nnd?” Gu Changge questioned, his eyes fixed on the old man in the ck robe with evident interest.


    The ancestral hall fell into a hushed anticipation. While they were Gu Changge’s ancestors by seniority, his true identity as the World Destroyer Demon Lord ced them as juniors before him. The ck-robed old man, slightly startled, observed Gu Changge, aware of his existence from the time he was in the Immortal Domain.


    However, he chose not to reveal himself then. Now, face to face with Gu Changge, the origin of this world-destroying demon, reincarnated into the Gu family, left him in awe. Gu Changge yed a significant role in the first battle against heaven and saved the true spirit incarnation of the real world of mountains and seas as a former heaven yer.


    The old man in ck had witnessed andprehended many events, including the first battle against heaven and the Forbidden Era, yet he maintained a detached stance from the Gu family and refrained from participating in those conflicts. As a bystander, he observed everything, even the founding of the Immortal Pce before the Forbidden Era.


    However, the motives behind Gu Changge’s actions, such as destroying the Immortal Pce and turning against its master, remained a mystery to the old man. He was unsure of Gu Changge’s current realm and found him enigmatic, shrouded in ayer of mist that obscured his figure throughout the ages.


    In the past, the old man would not have been surprised by thisck of rity, given Gu Changge’s superior cultivation. However, even now, when Gu Changge had not fully returned to his peak state, the old man struggled to perceive him. This baffled him, as even an Immortal Emperor could navigate the annals of time and deduce the secrets of heaven.


    Gu Changge, with a faint smile, acknowledged the confusion surrounding his identity. He offered a simple response, “It doesn’t matter what you call me. You can refer to me as Demon Lord or simply Changge, like the other ancestors.”


    Gu Changge had been tracking a significant figure, one revived in other eras, considering them insignificant inparison. He noted the absence of a true emperor among them. The appearance of the Gu family’s founder held great significance for Gu Changge, despite involving another chess piece in his intricate ns. At this moment, such details seemed inconsequential.


    The ck-robed old man remained silent for a moment, surprised by Gu Changge’s straightforward response. “I’ll still call you the Demon Lord,” he finally stated.


    Gu Changge smiled and replied, “Old Ancestor, call me whatever you like. I’m not here just to be called.”


    The ck-robed old man, whose strength surpassed even that of the Immortal Emperor, reaching the Void Dao Realm and navigating through the second decline of heaven, was undeniably one of the most powerful figures throughout the ages in the real world of mountains and seas. Even at her peak, Qing Yi could only be considered a worthypetitor.


    “I can surmise your purpose, but the real world of mountains and seas is in despair,” the old man in the ck robe said. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t easily decide to abandon the nnd.”


    Gu Changge sighed, “Why say that, Ancestor? Isn’t there still a hundred years left? That should be more than enough for the real world of mountains and seas.”


    Hearing this, the ck-robed old man’s eyes narrowed, his expression turning serious. He understood that Gu Changge wouldn’t make such statements lightly. Did this imply that Gu Changge had other ns? However, what could be changed within a hundred years? Even with an extended timeframe of ten thousand years, one million years, or even a hundred epochs, the fundamental situation might remain unchanged.


    “If it were not impossible, who would willingly leave their hometown? This is the foundation I constructed, the family I built with my own hands. Your parents and rtives in this world are all my descendants. How can I bear to watch them sacrificed along with this world?” Gu Changge expressed a sense of responsibility.


    “I don’t know your ns, but I’ll tell you directly,” the ck-robed old man continued. “The group of hunters crossing over from the boundless sea is formidable, backed by an ancient real world. Additionally, I sense a frenzied and chaotic atmosphere. It’s possible a lunatic has infiltrated.”


    At this point, the old man in the ck robe ceased hiding the critical situation. He didn’t expect the members of the Gu family to fullyprehend the dire circumstances, but he was certain Gu Changge understood the gravity of the situation. A hunter supported by an ancient real world would undoubtedly pose a threat equivalent to his strength.


    Those termed “lunatics” were ruthless individuals who had once buried the world with their own hands, devoid of emotions and concerns. In the current Realm of Mountains and Seas, besides the ck-robed old man and Gu Changge, who else possessed the qualifications to confront these formidable hunters?


    Understanding the gravity of the situation, the ck-robed old man decided to relocate all members of the Gu family to Nine Heavens. He refused to stay and faced annihtion alongside the Mountain and Sea Realm. Maintaining sobriety and rationality, heprehended the enormity of the impending catastrophe for the real world of mountains and seas.


    While others remained fearless due to ignorance,cking the understanding of the situation, Gu Changge should be aware of the impending danger.


    “The Realm of Mountains and Seas is not as fragile as you may think, Patriarch. Those destined to return will return. Is this catastropheparable to the cmity?” Gu Changge’s light smile did not betray the gravity of the situation.


    “Did I underestimate the Realm of Mountains and Seas?” Gu Changge pondered. “Or, is there a n that the old man is unaware of?”


    Hearing this, the old man in ck furrowed his brow and began deducing, his fingers moving beneath the loose robe.
