I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 1139

Chapter 1139: Relying on such a shortcut to become an immortal, there is not even a single Dao-building expert

Empress Huang Yu had not truly revived; was this just a remnant spiritual or mental fluctuation she left behind?

The members of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, who had rushed to the scene, were all dumbfounded. They couldn’t believe this reality, finding it difficult to accept. The Empress, who had become the first female Emperor during the Great Extinction, had long since departed from this world.

Furthermore, her body had already undergone spiritual dissolution, leaving only a skull, with all traces dissipated, except for a lingering sense of pursuit.

Empress Huang Yu, a peerless beauty of her generation, was there anyone in the world worthy of her pursuit?

Such a faint spiritual fluctuation sent shivers through the hearts of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty members, making it hard for them to accept and believe.

From the era of the Great Extinction to the present seemed like an impossibly long time, and how could Empress Huang Yu have lived for so long?

This was the more acceptable truth: that era was too distant, and even immortal figures in the era couldn’t live for such an extended period.

Moreover, considering the scarcity of life-extending materials in this world, the lifespan of a Dao-building expert was typically just tens of thousands of years.

Despite Empress Huang Yu having defied the sky, it was impossible to alter the rules of the world. Since the distant era, she had survived until then.

This is the heavens wanting to end our Yuhua Immortal Dynasty…

Empress Yuhua couldn’t accept the reality. His vision darkened, and without the support of the ministers by his side, he might have collapsed to the ground.

It was a mix of great joy and great sorrow; they had thought they found hope, but what they saw was true despair.

Empress Huang Yu was no longer here; this was not her true form.

That is not the true form of Empress Huang Yu; it is just a residual spiritual body left behind, possessing a spiritual fluctuation comparable to her original. Now, it’s already starting to dissipate…

I told you, how could there be someone in this world who could live for so long? Empress Huang Yu achieved the level of a Dao-building expert shortly after the Great Extinction, and the time since then is truly too distant.

Even if she became a Dao-building expert, she couldn’t have survived for so long.

The surging waves of spiritual thoughts above the Big Dipper Star Field confirmed the news.

Some quasi-emperor figures who had been alarmed and rushed over held imperial artifacts, ready to resist. However, they quickly sensed that the dominating Empress Huang Yu from earlier was now fading away, losing the overwhelming pressure it had before.

It was like the last brilliance of a burning star, dazzling for a moment, and then returning to silence.

They could even feel a residual spiritual fluctuation – a sense of regret, pursuit, and nostalgia.

What is going on? Even Empress Huang Yu, even at the moment of her spiritual dissolution, is still pursuing something. Is she chasing after someone?

“Why did the spiritual fluctuation of Empress Huang Yu revive at this moment? Could it be that she sensed something…”

They were incredibly surprised, finding it all inconceivable.

In the records, Empress Huang Yu was described as a dazzling figure, admired and revered by countless people, reigning over an era and even intimidating cultivators in later generations.

This extraordinary woman had ultimately ended her life with regrets, sitting in the depths of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty.

In a trance, everyone saw a figure in phoenix attire, looking towards a certain direction with a face full of regret.

She had left this universe, seeking the traces of someone, lingering for a long time outside the Divine Ruins. However, in the end, her efforts were in vain.

Approaching the end of her lifespan, the once-beautiful figure turned into a skull, meeting her demise in the depths of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty.

A sigh of regret, cold and clear, echoed in everyone’s ears, as if hearing a whisper.

So, you are not of this era…

The faces of powerhouses in the Big Dipper Star field, and even the surrounding starfields, had their expressions changed as if they had seen a ghost. Could the remaining spiritual fluctuation be so powerful?

In a moment of confusion, they even had a certain illusion: Empress Huang Yu still existed in the world, just in a different form.

Moreover, what did that sentence mean? Was it something she said to the person she was pursuing?

In ancient legends, as Empress Huang Yu is young, she once enters the Divine Ruins and receives guidance from the master of the Divine Ruins. Later, she searches various places for the location of the Divine Ruins. Could the person she pursued be the mysterious master of the Divine Ruins…

Now, a tremendous change has occurred in the Divine Ruins, and the remaining spiritual fluctuation left by Empress Huang Yu after her demise suddenly woke up. Could it be because she senses the presence of the master of the Divine Ruins?

This is impossible. Even though the Divine Ruins are incredibly mysterious and ancient, what person could live for so long?

Before the era of the Great Extinction, it is said that the Divine Ruins already existed. The master of the Divine Ruins is undoubtedly powerful, but even if he were an immortal, he couldn’t have lived for so long.

The surge of spiritual thoughts was tumultuous. Above the Big Dipper Star Field, terrifying figures stood with runes swirling around them, shrouded in chaotic mist.

Some had bodies resembling towering peaks, while others had the faces of human tribes, all staring intently at the anomalies in the Big DipperStar Field, filled with suspicion.

Within the Divine Ruins, divine radiance still soared to the heavens, countless Dao runes floated, emitting a heavy and majestic aura that seemed to crush the heavens and the ages.

A sacred tree covered the sky, its branches and leaves so dense that they formed a world of their own. The horrifying sound it emitted suppressed their minds, almost causing them to collapse.

These quasi-emperor existences, despite their great power, had no courage to step forward and enter the Divine Ruins at this moment.

If Empress Huang Yu’ spiritual fluctuation truly revived because she sensed the aura of the master of the Divine Ruins, it would be an absolutely sensational event for them.

How long has that master of the Divine Ruins lived?

Just thinking about the number is enough to make their souls tremble and their scalps numb.

And now, deep within the Divine Ruins:

Boom!

Rustling sounds! Branches collided, and the Epoch Tree swayed. Each leaf had intricate world patterns, emitting a sound that was both majestic and profound.

Beneath the Epoch Tree, a blurry figure in white sat cross-legged, surrounded by immortal radiance, shrouded in chaotic aura, ethereal and detached.

The person seemed to be seated in the depths of reincarnation, with an elusive and ephemeral aura. Even those familiar with him would find it challenging to determine his identity.

Strange Dao runes floated around, exuding a profound and supreme power that seemed capable of crushing all Dao rules.

Suddenly, the seated figure in white moved slightly, and then began to blur, as if disappearing from nothingness and reappearing in nothingness in an instant. In a moment, the transition from void to reality was complete.

It seems that the arrival is just in time.  

Gu Changge opened his eyes, and deep within those eyes, scenes of terrifying apocalyptic events, the collapse of heaven and earth, and the destruction of the universe appeared and disappeared, returning to a serene and undisturbed state.

He left a Dao avatar in this place, not just to guard the Dao fruit of Epoch Tree but also to act as a spatial coordinate, facilitating the arrival of his true self and saving a lot of time.

Now it seemed that he had come just in time. The main force of the upper realms had not yet descended; only the vanguard, who were essentially cannon fodder, had arrived.

You’ve worked hard during this time.

Gu Changge looked at the stunning figure standing beside the Epoch Tree.

Tao Yao nodded but didn’t say much. Her gaze towards him revealed a hint of complexity.

Although she had promised to help Gu Changge with a favor, she hadn’t expected the scale of the plot he set up, using the Epoch Tree as bait to attract the upper realms.

He seemed to intend to sacrifice this universe, burying those forces of the upper realms, to pave the way for his own path.

In terms of accumulation, Gu Changge was indeed not on par with those background figures, so he could only rely on such shortcuts to achieve immortality.

Regardless, we can’t explore the secrets hidden in the Divine Ruins in the Big Dipper Star Field. According to the news from other starfields, beings from other universes have already arrived, led by four accomplished Dao-building experts…

At this moment, a quasi-emperor figure suddenly spoke above the Big Dipper Star Field, his expression changing drastically upon hearing news from distant starfields.

The vast expanse of the Kun Ji Universe unfolded before them, yet for the Dao-building expert, the distance was merely a fleeting moment. They swiftly arrived at the Big Dipper Star Field.

The most urgent task now is to leave the Big Dipper Star Field as soon as possible and evacuate this universe.

The target of those beings is undoubtedly the divine tree in the Divine Ruins. If the Lord of the Divine Ruins is still present, a being with power capable of destroying heaven and earth, once they take action, even a wisp of energy is enough to make it impossible for us to escape.

This place will soon become extremely dangerous, and staying here for an extended period is of no benefit to us.

These Dao-building experts showed great decisiveness. Their figures departed from above the Big Dipper Star Field, intending to return to their respective homelands and ancient planets, leading their people away from here.

However, at the next moment, a terrible rumbling sound echoed from the end of the universe, sweeping across the entire sky.

Not good… it’s too late; they’ve already arrived.

Why are they so fast…

The figures standing above the Big Dipper Star Field had faces filled with abrupt change. They found it unbelievable that from the moment they received the news to their arrival in the Big Dipper Star Field, only a few moments had passed, and this terrible army was already descending.

This sent shivers down their spines, filling them with horror.

A massive black shadow, like a surging flood, advanced densely. Knights riding on savage beasts and standing on ancient warships held heavenly swords and spears, their vital energy surging.

The leading Dao-building expert’s eyes were cold and indifferent, and a mocking expression swept across the surrounding star regions, causing numerous planets to tremble, as if they were about to fall.

The ancient warships, majestic and colossal, traversed the cosmic passages with incredible speed, carrying an overwhelming momentum. Cultivators and creatures in their path were terrified, their faces pale with desperation and horror. The entire star field was engulfed in a murderous intent, reminiscent of the life-withering chill of winter’s end.

These are the ripples of Dao-building experts we sensed earlier…

Haha, it’s just the lingering spiritual fluctuation from a skull. This universe can’t even produce a single Dao-building expert.

Why did the Epoch Tree choose to take root in this universe? It’s truly puzzling.

Watching the Big Dipper Star Field draw near, the main force from the Upper Realm stopped in mid-air. The ancient warships floated in the air, forming a dense mass, exuding a chilling and terrifying momentum.

Among the four leading Dao-building experts, one with a bloodless and pale complexion, snake-like pupils, spoke up.

He sneered as he looked down below, his voice filled with undisguised mockery.

Just a while ago, they sensed the overwhelming aura of a Dao-building expert covering the Big Dipper Star Field, even reaching their location.

So, they hurriedly rushed over, but they never expected to encounter a mere lingering spiritual fluctuation from the skull of a Dao-building expert.

This completely caught them off guard, prompting them to burst into mocking laughter, openly displaying their contempt for the Kun Ji Universe and the Big Dipper Star Field.

Even the surrounding powerhouses, who were at the level of quasi-emperor, seemed insignificant to them. The gap between them and the Dao-building experts was like an insurmountable chasm.

With just a single finger, they could easily crush these quasi-emperors, as if squashing ants, without the slightest effort.

Upon hearing this unreservedly indifferent voice, the inhabitants of the Big Dipper Star Field couldn’t help but feel extreme despair, kneeling in fear, and trembling.

Many of them were abandoned or left behind by their respective forces, unable to cross the starfields and escape from the Big Dipper Star Region.

They knew that the Divine Ruins  was undergoing a drastic change, and the entire universe would be destined for bloodshed, becoming a land of turmoil where no one could escape unscathed.

Little did they expect that these immensely powerful beings would arrive so swiftly, leaving them with no chance of survival.

From the period of the Great Annihilation to the present in the Kunji Universe, how many Dao-building experts had emerged?

Yet now, four statues stood tall in the sky above the Big Dipper Star Field, emitting an indifferent and terrifying aura that crushed the souls of all who felt it.

“It’s over, it’s over, no one can save us, the Big Dipper Starfield will be destroyed soon.”

It’s over, it’s over. No one can save us; the Big Dipper Star Field will be destroyed soon.

In the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, Emperor Yuhua’s complexion had face pallid, and collapsed outside the ancestral land in utter despair.

Four statues representing invincibility had appeared. Even if the Empress Huang Yu had not perished, she would not have been able to contend with them. It was a hopeless situation.

The fluctuations from the Epoch Tree are peculiar. There seems to be a heartbeat that makes my heart palpitate.

The other three Dao-building experts scanned the Big Dipper Starfield below. Finally, his eyes settled on the Divine Ruins.

The brilliance emitted from that location was exceptionally intense, almost piercing through the heavens. The waves of aura surged like mighty waves, accompanied by the resonance of the world, vast and majestic. Even they, under this pressure, felt immense stress.

Within the Divine Ruins, the colossal divine tree covered the sky, its branches and leaves unfolding, creating a thunderous sound. Each leaf seemed to be shrouded in chaotic energy, capable of connecting to the heavens. Undoubtedly, this was the Epoch Tree they had been seeking.

It seems that the Epoch Tree didn’t accidentally fall here but was brought and eventually planted here by someone.

The first Dao-building expert spoke. With a heated look in his eyes, he decisively took action, intending to probe the mysterious place to see if he could break in and take the Epoch Tree away.

Boom!

The sky trembled as a silver giant hand, interwoven with moonlight, surrounded by grand Dao runes, violently extended. It seemed capable of shattering everything, descending directly toward the Divine Ruins in the Big Dipper Star Field.
