I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 1192

Chapter 1192: Sacrificing the Immortal King to refine him as Great Medicine seems to be branded in his bone

This strike shook the heavens, and myriad star domains trembled, casting the city into immortal darkness and silence.

All living beings fell into despair as the Falling True Beast swallowed them with a single gulp, extinguishing life rapidly. The radiance of the sun, moon, and stars dissipated, leaving the world in perpetual night. It wasn’t a mere illusion but a tangible occurrence, resembling the world’s end.

Even the Half-Step Immortal Kings were helpless against such divine powers.

Jin Yuan roared, emitting a spray of immortal light with intertwined Dao runes to break free. However, his efforts failed, and he could only witness his vitality rapidly diminishing before being devoured by the Falling True Beast.

From a distance, Immortal Kings Kunxuan and Qingming were also profoundly shaken. They hadn’t expected the Falling True Beast Immortal King to possess such a terrifying technique.

Faced with such a move, they needed to avoid its sharp edge carefully and couldn’t quickly confront it. If swallowed by the Falling True Beast, it would be challenging for them to break out from within its body.

The Falling True Beast Immortal King had indeed lived up to its title as the current ruler of the foreign land. Its physical body had become so formidable that it could effortlessly rupture the fabric of the universe. Even the sturdiest Immortal Gold would likely crumble before it.

Falling True Beast Immortal King once came into contact with a peculiar substance from the Original World, resulting in an immortal body immune to any pain and an endless vitality.

Immortal King Kunxuan sighed, showing envy towards the Falling True Beast’s incredible fortune. Its physical body surpassed theirs, making the Falling True Beast Immortal King stronger than the three combined.

“No wonder Falling True Beast Immortal King is so confident, daring to attack alone and seize the opportunity before us.”

Immortal King Qingming spoke with a touch of indifference. In his cold eyes, there flashed a sense of awe. Although he was a beast transformed from a foreign land, boasting extraordinary speed and the ability to transcend time, it was just a rumor.

After all, with time’s erosion, his body couldn’t compare to the sheer power of the Falling True Beast Immortal King.

Before the Heavenly Passage City, the star domain was completely swallowed, becoming absolute nothingness—a terrifying sight.

Although the conversation seemed lengthy, it occurred in an instant. Immortal King’s Kunxuan and Qingming descended rapidly, maintaining vigilance and not letting their guard down.

Reaching this stage, they were all wise and careful.

However, just as the three Immortal Kings were about to descend…

Boom!

A dense black light burst forth, resembling a dark sun blooming, its radiance illuminating the heavens. The Falling True Beast Immortal King emitted a muffled groan, followed by a low roar, as its massive body quivered as if on the verge of shattering.

Not good…

The three Immortal Kings’ expressions changed abruptly as they were about to intervene to aid the Falling True Beast Immortal King. However, an arm swept across the sky as if descending from the ancient past. It cleaved down from the edge of the Falling True Beast’s mouth, and an immeasurable radiance erupted and spewed forth.

Vast, like an endless king’s sun, a vast energy threatened to engulf the area thoroughly. The Falling True Beast Immortal King’s divine body exploded and shattered into pieces. Its mouth was torn open, blood streaming, and the injuries were horrifying, almost splitting its head into two.

Standing there, Gu Changge’s demeanor remained unchanged. His gaze remained tranquil and aloof throughout, silent and icy.

For some reason, at this moment, the three Immortal Kings were reminded of the immortal and ancient will of the Heavenly Dao, overlooking all beings like insignificant ants. A chill ran down their spines, a feeling of disbelief and unacceptance.

As Immortal Kings, what in this world could make them fearful and uneasy and even evoke terror within themselves? This was something they found hard to accept.

The Falling True Beast Immortal King’s divine body has been shattered, and it may have affected its Origin…

Too overconfident; this consequence will only make things more difficult to resolve.

Immortal King Kunxuan noticed the Falling True Beast, whose head had already been grasped by Gu Changge, and his expression changed rapidly. He conjured a seven-layered golden pagoda that descended from the high sky, attempting to rescue the Falling True Beast.

Immortal King Qingming and another Immortal King also took action. Myriad divine laws transformed into chains, converging into an ocean, surging relentlessly toward Gu Changge.

However, beside Gu Changge, ripples were spreading out, subtle and indistinct, like mist rising around a blue lotus or the radiance around a star.

All attacks dissipated silently in front of the ripples, unable to touch him.

Immunity to divine powers…

Or the Peerless Art of Unyielding against all methods?

Immortal King Kunxuan was once again shocked. This was a divine art that aroused envy and jealousy. He had heard about a progenitor of a foreign imperial clan possessing such a talent. The descendants could exhibit this power, but it only worked in immortality. To manifest such a talent in Immortal Kings was beyond imagination.

Gu Changge’s profound abilities left the Immortal Kings in disbelief. They couldn’t fathom how, in the presence of this mysterious figure, all attacks and methods were rendered powerless.

Could this person be related to that ancestor of the imperial clan?

Even the Qingming Immortal King was shocked, having never imagined that the faint glow around Gu Changge would grant him immunity against all attacks directed at him. These were divine arts at the Immortal King level, capable of destroying universes and tearing apart the heavens, but before Gu Changge, they dissipated like waves against a solid rock.

“How did you achieve this…”

The Falling True Beast spoke, its gaze filled with doubt. Its proper form was captured by Gu Changge, who could not move. At this moment, a trace of fear, even for itself, emerged in its eyes.

After becoming an Immortal King, countless years had passed, and I couldn’t remember exactly how many. Yet today, I felt fear once again.

Gu Changge looked calmly at it, not explaining. He chuckled lightly and said, “You came to me alone. I don’t even know how to thank you.”

“What did you mean?”

The Falling True Beast continued to bleed profusely from its mouth as it roared. The blood it shed was divine, with myriad colors in each drop, seemingly holding the essence of countless worlds. If a single drop fell elsewhere, it might have obliterated an entire ancient realm.

The Immortal and foreign beings were revived, but their souls were terrified, and despair lingered. They hadn’t recovered from the shock, still overwhelmed by the horrifying scene of the Falling True Beast, unimaginably powerful, being captured by Gu Changge.

Gu Changge gazed at the Falling True Beast without explaining, and then he lightly laughed, saying, “You brought yourself to my presence. I don’t even know how to express my gratitude to you.”

What do you mean?

The Falling True Beast kept bleeding, its mouth continuously emitting roars. Its blood was dazzling and radiant, with a drop seemingly containing the essence of countless worlds. A drop landing elsewhere might have obliterated an entire ancient realm.

The Falling True Beast, trapped in Gu Changge’s grasp, struggled desperately but could not escape. Its massive body cracked like porcelain, countless fissures spreading rapidly across its form.

Witnessing this gruesome sight, the onlookers were horrified and trembling with fear. They had initially believed that the Falling True Beast would devour this mysterious young man.

Yet, unexpectedly, he effortlessly shattered all their expectations and restrained the Falling True Beast’s proper form.

Such methods surpassed their imagination, and their reverence toward him was beyond words.

“Great… so powerful…”

Jin Yun’s voice trembled. After reaching the level of Half-Immortal King, he considered himself one of the most prominent figures in the Southern Immortal Realm. However, at this moment, he felt like a mere ant, once again experiencing the insignificance and humility he felt when he first embarked on the path of cultivation.

You wanted to devour me, yet you can’t even bite through my arm.

Is this the confidence you had just now?

Gu Changge paid no attention to the shocked reactions of the onlookers. He merely looked at the captured Falling True Beast with a hint of intriguing curiosity in his eyes.

The Falling True Beast roared, and mysterious forces flowed between its proper form, attempting to break free. However, with a single palm from Gu Changge, its skull exploded, blood of various colors sprayed out, and it’s divine soul flickered, almost shattering.

“Save me…”

The Falling True Beast couldn’t hide the evident fear in its heart, far from the confidence it had displayed earlier. It shouted for help from the Immortal Kings, attempting to get them to intervene and rescue it. It felt that today, it might genuinely meet its end here, being forcefully suppressed by Gu Changge.

Boom!

A vast power surged, and once again, radiant light erupted. Kunxuan Immortal King, Qingming Immortal King, and others joined forces, unleashing terrifying Dao techniques.

Even though they knew that Gu Changge could immunize himself against these attacks, they still acted forcefully, believing that immunity couldn’t last forever and had its limits. Once they broke through that limit, they could injure Gu Changge.

However, Gu Changge didn’t even cast a glance in their direction. Dense black energy flowed between his palms and fingertips, forming a Dao artifact – a swirling Dao bottle.

The mouth of the bottle cascaded with boundless black light, resembling a waterfall.

This Dao bottle, condensed from Dao runes, flew out and headed toward Kunxuan Immortal King, Qingming Immortal King, and others. It constantly expanded, shrouding the heavens and earth. Within it, an unseen abyss appeared, capable of devouring all things, even causing the collapse of the Dao rules.

What is this…

It seems like something I’ve seen in a forbidden scripture…

Kunxuan Immortal King’s expression changed dramatically as he stared at the bottle but could only see its blurry outline. Some patterns intertwined within, but it was unclear.

His treasure tower trembled, now imprisoned by that overwhelming devouring force. Cracks began to appear, and the Dao imprints inscribed on it rapidly dissipated, turning into powder.

This made Kunxuan Immortal King feel as if his heart were bleeding. His artifact had accompanied him throughout his life; it had never been damaged, even in battles against peers.

He even used various rare divine materials to forge it, making it indestructible. However, today, it’s on the verge of collapsing, unable to touch that blurry bottle.

I vaguely remember; it might indeed be that thing from the forbidden scriptures. Even as a replica, it holds such power.

I can’t imagine…

Qingming Immortal King’s expression turned serious. Those black lights blocked him, and he couldn’t break through, even with his incredible speed. It seemed like a sea of black energy was spewing, submerging the starry realms. This black energy separated them from Gu Changge, making it impossible for them to rescue the Falling True Beast.

They found it even more unacceptable that Gu Changge effortlessly blocked them with a replica of a forbidden item.

“Ah…”

At this moment, the pitiful cries of the Falling True Beast echoed. As an Immortal King, its will was more robust than the most tempered Immortal Gold. What could make an Immortal King scream like this? Even in the face of death, it shouldn’t be so humiliated; it was a disgrace for an Immortal King.

However, when they saw the scene unfolding, even Kunxuan Immortal King and the others felt a chill running down their spines. They were shivering, and even their scalps felt numb.

The fragrance of medicine permeated the air, and the flames of the Great Dao burned relentlessly, consuming the Falling True Beast. It was being refined, treated as an excellent medicine in the mortal world, swallowed, and absorbed by Gu Changge in front of them. Its essence and origin were rapidly diminishing.

The Immortal King Dao Fruit solidified and became a fruit—a miniature version of the True Beast, crystal clear, emitting a fragrance of medicine. Just a trace of its aura allowed ordinary cultivators to ascend or undergo a profound transformation.

But now, it was treated as a great medicine and a common fruit, devoured by Gu Changge.

He remained calm, showing no signs of abnormality. He had performed these actions countless times, deeply imprinted in his bones and soul.

The proper form of the Falling True Beast burned in the flames—a Dao fire that could incinerate the universe and extinguish all things. Yet, it was used as a medicinal fire by Gu Changge to refine the Immortal King Dao Origin, eventually transforming it into a Dao Fruit for his consumption.

“Ah…”

“Save me…”

The Falling True Beast emitted cries of agony. The pain and humiliation were indescribable. It witnessed itself being refined, its cultivation and essence turned into nourishment. In the flames of the Great Dao, it was stripped of impurities and refined into a crystal-clear great medicine.

Then, Gu Changge casually swallowed it down. He appeared calm, his movements graceful, as if these actions had been repeated countless times, imprinted in both his bones and soul.

However, now it sent a shiver down the spines of all beings in the foreign realm, causing them to scream in disbelief. The invincible king in their hearts had fallen into becoming nourishment for great medicine.

This scene horrified Kunxuan Immortal King, Qingming Immortal King, and others to the point where their scalps tingled, overwhelmed by fear. As Immortal Kings, they held an exalted status, the most powerful and outstanding individuals born in the world over countless ages, surpassing numerous peers to reach their current heights.

They were willing to fight to the death and be killed by others, but they couldn’t accept such a humiliating demise. It was the first time they witnessed an Immortal King, a pinnacle of existence, having their body and soul turned into immortal medicine and consumed as the source of remarkable treatment.

“Don’t be anxious. After swallowing it, it will be your turn very soon,” Gu Changge calmly remarked, paying no attention to the horror and anger of Kunxuan Immortal King, Qingming Immortal King, and the others. He leisurely devoured the Falling True Beast’s Immortal King Dao Origin.

It had to be said that the Immortal King Dao Origin was on a different level than the True Immortal Dao Origin. The fragments of Dao laws it contained were virtually boundless and endless.

The taste of this experience, even when he entered the Immortal Dao realm, couldn’t be compared. It was truly intoxicating.
