As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1666: The Ghost Emperor Who Turns His Back on All Living Beings Slays the Poison Saint, Submit to Me and Witness the Eternal Divine Tide...
Previously on As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality...
Should the Divine Tribulation or Martial God dare to stir the Disaster Wheel into combat, they would find themselves ensnared by the Heaven and Earth Will’s Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, facing an immense ordeal soon after.
Yet if they avoid rousing the Disaster Wheel... much like Gu Yangxuan right now, his body keeps getting blasted apart in repeated eruptions.
Gu Yangxuan isn't a Martial God, just a Divine Tribulation. While his physique holds up against the highest peaks, it falls far short when matched against a Martial God.
Boom——!!!
The Divine Machine Demon Ape lunged forward again at Gu Yangxuan.
At the same time, elsewhere.
Gu Yinxuan prepared to depart when Li Che’s mind shifted, causing the Sea Flipping Nine Infants to burst into myriad ink blotches, shattering the hold of the Nine Revolutions Rising Dragon Pill.
The instant after, it reassembled as the Sea Flipping Nine Infants, surging straight at Gu Yinxuan!
Rumble——
Heavenly Tribulation descended swiftly, slamming down fiercely onto the Sea Flipping Nine Infants and weakening its might substantially.Still, this beast’s utter contempt for the strikes of Tribulation Thunder turned it into a massive headache for Gu Yinxuan.
It refused to die from poison, and beating it proved impossible!
This monster was nothing less than his perfect counter!
Gu Yinxuan’s features spasmed against his will, sensing that something was deeply wrong.
This Underworld...
Held no plans to let him slip away!
Intending to trap him right here?!
"Sir, I, Gu Yinxuan, spent a thousand years in seclusion and another thousand faking my death—surely no grudges linger between us, right?"
Gu Yinxuan called forth the Heavenly Poison Pill again to hold back the frenzied Sea Flipping Nine Infants, though he himself took heavy hits, fresh blood trickling unchecked from his lip’s edge.
His inner Dao Yun churned without pause, fury mounting sharply, but he couldn’t afford to unleash or express it.
Ahead lay the Third Tribulation of the First Disaster Realm—that looming Calamity he held no assurance of surviving.
So, he had to hold back.
The vital issue was...
A profound sense of danger gripped him.
Over the ink-shrouded city, a colossal form loomed, facing away from everyone, crowned by raging purple flames.
Merely by existing there, it exuded a calamitous force that threatened to upend the skies and lands.
Gu Yinxuan’s look grew utterly somber...
The Underworld concealed yet another powerhouse!
Which faction from the Underworld had emerged this time?
A savage, insane brute rivaling the might of One Disaster and Two Tribulations, and now...
A Divine Machine Beast on par with a Martial God, and further...
Yet another entity atop the city walls, radiating an aura that filled him with dread...
The purple flames flickered silently, clearly a dreadfully potent Tribulation Fire.
As they danced, they warped the surrounding space, as though ferocious creatures bellowed in rage from inside.
Gu Yinxuan’s face twisted in utmost severity as he bellowed at the figure on the city walls.
"Earthly Ghost Emperor!"
From a distance, Gu Yangxuan cried out in shock.
Earthly Ghost Emperor?
Gu Yinxuan mulled the title in his mind; this figure hadn’t appeared a thousand years back.
"Sir, what’s your intent?"
"Do you truly seek mutual ruin?"
Gu Yinxuan demanded in a grave voice.
Yet the Earthly Ghost Emperor kept his back to him, turned away from the world.
"Kill you."
A soft voice echoed across the heavens and earth.
Gu Yinxuan’s expression darkened profoundly—was bargaining off the table now?
Roar——!!!
The Sea Flipping Nine Infants bellowed, its nine heads flailing madly, Tribulation Thunder pounding down, but the Nine Infants paid it no heed and pressed its assault.
Crunch crunch...
The gates of Underworld Fengdu swung open with a mighty thud.
Enveloped in pitch-black depths and endless frost, it resembled the portal to oblivion.
"The Gate of Fengdu stands ajar—crave survival?"
"Inside Fengdu hides a Small Cave Heaven, free from calamity’s constraints; if life calls, enter and battle your way free."
A calm voice drifted from the Earthly Ghost Emperor’s silhouette, still facing away from all.
Gu Yinxuan’s gaze sharpened as he stared at the enigmatic gateway...
Should he step into this city...
Could he possibly endure?
A bone-chilling frost seized Gu Yinxuan entirely, his poison expertise clashing against an insurmountable foe—this deranged brute... it crippled him utterly.
Even a Demon Emperor, being a living thing, could fall to toxins...
But this mindless savage just swallowed the Nine Revolutions Rising Dragon Pill whole and emerged unscathed.
Even so, with this brute tying him down, escape seemed doubtful...
The human realm wasn’t Strange Que; he couldn’t unleash his full might.
And this reckless, thunder-enduring fiend came solely to slay him; he was left purely defensive.
"Ah!"
Gu Yangxuan let out a furious howl.
He too grasped the dire circumstances...
The Underworld had joined forces with the Imperial Court; Xie Yushen had orchestrated their trap, the aim crystal clear—to seize the Qi Fortune of Divine Sect.
He and his kin could no longer shield the Qi Fortune of Heavenly Pill Divine Sect.
Hence, Gu Yangxuan refused to perish.
He yearned to survive!
Though his body lay in ruins, his Heaven and Earth Soul remained, and with his pill-refining prowess, given ample Human Medicine, he could rebuild a form.
He absolutely refused to die!
Kill!
Gu Yangxuan’s eyes blazed crimson; in the human realm, he felt too restrained, unable to pour out his power, driven until his form detonated...
Kill!
Boom——!!!
Gu Yangxuan morphed first into a streak of light, hurtling toward the yawning gates of Underworld Fengdu.
Gu Yinxuan shot a look at Gu Yangxuan, inwardly damning him as a fool.
Charge in and hope to emerge?
Even inside the Small Cave Heaven, unleashing full cultivation and stirring the Disaster Wheel—what then?
But sensing the Divine Machine Demon Ape’s watchful gaze, its echoing roar, and that back-turned shadow on the city walls...
Plus, far off, the Imperial Court’s Divine Tribulation Gu Qianchi as well.
He appeared... out of options now.
Fighting offered a slim shot.
Lingering in the human world meant encirclement and certain doom!
"Damn it! I won’t accept that I can’t poison you!"
Gu Yinxuan’s rage finally ignited.
In the following instant, with no alternatives, he too bolted into Underworld Fengdu.
