Chapter 1133
Chapter 1133: Everyone in the great world of immortals is in danger, background figures fall.
The Upper Realms were in chaos, with bloodshed and turmoil erupting everywhere in recent days. Even within the territories of immortal forces, large-scale wars had broken out.
There is no semblance of peace in this tumultuous time as conflicts arose everywhere, driven by personal interests.
In many ancient immortal traditions, background figures emerged, carrying the entire heritage of their family, attempting to locate the Epoch Tree and make their final stand in this era.
However, this approach has a direct consequence: it rapidly depletes one ancient immortal tradition after another. The vital energy of the entire family was drained, causing them to decline from their peak of prosperity.
With the loss of background support, these forces rapidly deteriorate, allowing other forces to seize resources and techniques.
Yet, for ordinary cultivators, achieving immortality seems distant and unrelated. Their primary goal is to capitalize on the chaos to acquire resources and find what suits them best. Most of the large-scale battles in various regions were driven by this motive.
Countless cultivators and beings lose their lives in these wars, facing complete annihilation of body and soul.
Previously, due to unspoken agreements among various forces and the presence of supreme beings, quasi-emperors, and those who have attained immortality, they refrained from efficiently intervening.
However, the current upheaval has shattered these agreements, rendering them obsolete.
In ancient forbidden areas, divine light pierces the skies, and the pressure of blood blankets the entire universe. Beings that have lurked in seclusion for countless ages break free from their seals and reappear.
Even more potent than background figures, these ent.i.ties conceal their auras and temper their blood. Yet, their terrifying presence still causes disturbances in half the universe, showcasing unparalleled strength.
As the opportunity for immortality approaches, the heavenly environment undergoes drastic changes. Even the sky is adorned with radiant light, and immortal rain manifests in the heavens. Each star field was bathed in divine radiance, reminiscent of ancient times when such phenomena occurred during significant events.
The world is in chaos, and even we cannot escape unscathed.
Changge has just married the Peerless Immortal Dynasty, such a major event was bound to happen. Sure enough, the upper realm will not be peaceful for long. In fact, all of this is already doomed…
The path to immortality is never meant to be peaceful, as our ancestors foretold.
Within the Gu Family, many Dao-building experts who had attained immortality sigh with concern, their gazes filled with worry. Unlike other powerful forces from different immortal traditions, they do not directly search for traces of the Epoch Tree.
Gu Changge had long instructed them not to get involved, warning them of life-threatening consequences. As a result, the strong members of the Gu Family, including heritage figures that have emerged, remain quiet. They choose to stay within their ancestral territory.
Interestingly, the territory where the Gu Family resided was currently peaceful and quiet, resembling a paradise. There had never been a war or dispute. Aside from the previous turmoil caused by the matter of the immortal corpse, it was almost indistinguishable from regular peaceful days.
Despite being a junior member, Gu Changge is no ordinary cultivator. In his past life, he was a supreme existence of the forbidden era, with unimaginable cultivation. Therefore, no one dares to disregard his words.
“Let the struggle continue. The real spectacle has yet to unfold,”
Gu Changge stood calmly in the palace, dressed in pristine white, his demeanor transcendent and untainted. He gazes into the distant sky with calm and profound eyes.
His words do not surprise anyone. The aura of the Epoch Tree has only manifested for less than half a month, yet the situation in the Upper Realms has already undergone a tremendous upheaval.
Many immortal traditions were on the verge of collapse because the allure of becoming immortal was too great for these background figures.
The temptation was so significant for them that they were willing to forsake everything for the slightest chance of immortality. For ages, they’ve hidden in the shadows, eagerly awaiting a world transformed by the dawn of immortality. They antic.i.p.ate when all their loved ones fade into the river of time, becoming unseen bones.
In their eyes, there was nothing they could not abandon. Carrying all the heritage of their immortal traditions, they set out to find and compete for that elusive opportunity, essentially forsaking the powers behind them, risking everything.
Calculating the time, the Dark Heaven should be descending at this moment…
Gu Changge crushed a jade slip in his hand and conveyed various instructions.
This chaotic Upper Realm was the perfect breeding ground for the Dark Heaven to harvest and grow. The immortal forces that have lost their background figures, targets that Gu Changge had long set his sights on, are now ripe for the picking.
Half a month later, the Upper Realm trembled once again. As background figures fervently search for traces of the Epoch Tree, a mysterious and formidable force emerges in the shadows.
Like a terrifying torrent traversing the universe, it begins to ruthlessly engulf and harvest those immortal forces that had lost their background figures.
In less than half a month, numerous forces within various star fields had crumbled and been directly a.s.similated by that mysterious power.
Within this enigmatic force, numerous Dao-building experts were shrouded in black robes and engulfed in dense mist, hiding their true ident.i.ties. Seizing the opportunity when background figures are preoccupied, these Dao-building experts harvest one-star field after another, akin to grim reapers. They are virtually unstoppable.
Many cultivators feel a chilling horror as this mysterious force, which seems to be the same organization glimpsed during the lightning-fast events in the Grand Yu Immortal Dynasty, takes center stage.
If their memory serves them right, this organization even dared to attempt the a.s.sa.s.sination of Gu Changge, causing the demise of many Dao-building experts who rushed to the Grand Yu Immortal Dynasty, with only a few surviving.
From the current situation, this mysterious organization has infiltrated many forces, and cultivators are left uncertain whether their fellow elders or disciples might be members of this organization. Suspicion arises even among those closest to each other.
In this chaotic Upper Realm, where many Dao-building experts and background figures were already frantically searching for traces of the Epoch Tree due to the drastic changes in the immortal environment, the situation becomes even more fierce due to this revelation. Almost all Dao-building experts live in a state of panic and uncertainty, unaware of when the crisis will strike.
The horrifying scenes of marriage observed in the Lake of Reincarnation have not occurred. Still, the situation in the Upper Realm remains unchanged, as revealed by the Well of Reincarnation.
The Upper Realm is in chaos, everyone is on edge, and all Dao-building experts live in fear of Gu Changge’s shadow. The mastermind behind that mysterious organization is none other than Gu Changge.
Gu Xian’er, dressed in a green gown, stands beneath a withered ancient tree. The gentle breeze causes her skirt to sway lightly. She gazes at the turbulent sky, murmuring softly, her expression a mixture of complexity and confusion.
Half a month later, another event shook the Upper Realm. A background figure had fallen!
They met a tragic end while searching for the Epoch Tree, attacked by another background figure. Their bodies exploded, and remnants fell from a distant place.
This occurrence sends shockwaves worldwide, a dreadful aura spreading far and wide, causing the entire cosmos to tremble and resonate with terror.
Background Figures were undoubtedly the closest ent.i.ties to immortality in this era, especially with all their heritage intact. Yet, even they meet a gruesome death on their quest.
