I Am the Fated Villain

It was unrealistic for Gu Changge to deduce the origin of the Immortal Emperor. He sensed that this Immortal Emperor did not seem to come from the time and space where the Mortal World of Mountains and Seas was situated.

In the vast expanse of time and space, the long river of time extended everywhere. The long river of time that Gu Changge and others were currently in only spanned across the Mortal World of Mountains and Seas.

It was essential to acknowledge that besides the World of Mountains and Seas, there were other mortal worlds, some of which were older and more substantial than the World of Mountains and Seas.

Gu Changge needed to find out if this Immortal Emperor originated from the timeline of other time and space. Consequently, Gu Changge couldn’t see through the long river of time before him, comprehending everything at its conclusion.

Since he comes from the future, it implies that in that future, this person has encountered insurmountable troubles.

As I mentioned earlier, does he aim to come to this world to confront me while I am still weak? To pacify everything?

Gu Changge’s expression grew more intriguing. From a particular perspective, the arrival of this Immortal Emperor indicated that, in a specific time and space in the future, he had become the ominous figure referred to as the big black hand.

However, I believe it’s more akin to a Son of Luck rising from the future, the protagonist of a particular world. We will meet again.

Gu Changge shook his head slightly. His gaze swept across the fractured universe, where the lingering aura, comparable to that of an immortal emperor, had been riddled with holes.

The chaotic energy surged towards the universe, annihilating everything in its path. Except for beings of this level, any other cultivators stepping into this realm would meet a fate of physical and spiritual demise.

Rumble!

With a sweeping motion of his sleeve, the fractured universe began to mend. The collapsed starry sky reorganized, and the shattered stars condensed once more.

Overturned mountains, rivers, and cities were in the process of restoration. The fragmented Dao was condensed, radiating a dazzling brilliance. The scene resembled a staggering reversal of time and space, reproducing the landscape before the battle.

The lingering aura of the remaining Immortal Emperor swiftly dissipated, scattering throughout heaven and earth. In the distant foreign realm, the immortal kings observed this confusedly, unsure how to react. Old Immortal King Gu Xuan, Immortal King Ao Di, and others from the Immortal Domain also watched from a distance, hesitant to tread into this universe casually. The spectacle they witnessed was so astonishing that even they found it hard to believe.

The arrival of the four emperors, including a genuine immortal emperor from the future, left a profound impact. Such an individual could transcend ages, even causing the ancestral figures of imperial clans to bow before him.

The heavens and earth took on a scarlet hue, casting the entire universe crimson, misty and eerie. It was the lament of the Great Dao-building expert, steeped in desolation and sorrow.

This realm had once belonged to Emperor Yi, but with his demise, the imprints of life vanished. Gu Changge, through his reorganization, restored the collapsed world, bringing back the previous scene. Sorrow touched many creatures from the foreign land, influencing them with the compassion of heaven and earth.

Tears streamed down their faces as they experienced great compassion. Even true immortals found their hearts stained with sadness, moved by the fate of the fallen quasi-immortal emperor. His tragic death involved being looted and refined by Gu Changge into a peerless medicine.

This poignant scene resonated with the Dao-building expert of the foreign land, and the blood-colored light reflected the world. King Ming and other immortal kings dared not move at this moment.

The ancestors of other imperial clans sought refuge, hiding from view and avoiding exposure. The profound impact of these events left all witnesses in awe, unwilling to confront the aftermath directly.

In the presence of Gu Changge, these immortal kings seemed as insignificant as dust. King Ming and the others remained skeptical, unwilling to believe the unfolding events. The few ancestors of the imperial clan likely feigned ignorance, choosing to stay in a deep slumber to avoid being entangled in the upheaval.

Amid the cosmic galaxy, winds whispered through, an unusual occurrence in a starry sky devoid of any breeze. The fall of Emperor Yi triggered numerous abnormal phenomena.

Boom!

A resounding boom echoed through the void as blood-colored lotuses emerged, taking root in the universe. Each blossom unfurled, showering the surroundings with a cascade of blood rain, creating a striking yet macabre spectacle. Subsequently, black lightning flashed, crimson clouds spread, and peculiar scenes manifested throughout the diverse territories of the foreign land.

Gu Changge gracefully descended from the universe to the cave where Emperor Yi had once resided. A vast chaotic atmosphere lingered, and quasi-immortal emperor-level restrictions safeguarded various treasures, ancient artifacts, and a collection of old books. Beyond these, rare treasures and even a self-contained universe formed a small world within.

Gu Changge gathered all the accumulations Emperor Yi had amassed over countless years with a sweep of his sleeves. Despite not requiring these resources for himself, figures like Yue Mingkong, Jiang Chuchu, and others behind him did.

Moreover, despite the recent establishment of the Heavenly Court, limited resources were available, and several immortal kings were still in the early stages of building their legacies. Directly searching for many immortal kings in the immortal domain could destabilize the situation, again throwing it into disarray.

Gu Changge contemplated these considerations as he shook his head lightly.

With Emperor Yi’s demise, Gu Changge naturally claimed all the amassed resources for himself. As Gu Changge mused aloud, seemingly addressing himself, King Ming and the other immortal kings in the distance trembled.

Some bravely voiced their willingness to surrender the treasures they had accumulated over many eras and wanted to join the Heavenly Court. No one wanted to risk their lives in these uncertain times. Reflecting on the situation, they saw parallels with the Immortal Domain’s cooperation with Gu Changge, which had ultimately proven beneficial.

The initiative taken by the foreign land’s immortal kings prompted a cascade of others expressing their willingness to submit to the Heavenly Court and serve Gu Changge. Unfazed by their sentiments, Gu Changge demanded they hand over a strand of their life soul from their soul palace, granting him control over their life and death. Despite their reluctance, the immortal kings dared not voice their objections, fearing Gu Changge might change his mind. One by one, they surrendered a fragment of their souls.

In contrast, King Ming breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relaxed. Living in constant fear, he had worried that Gu Changge might arrive in the foreign land through his coordinates. Now, after relinquishing his soul, although he lost his freedom, he also shed the anxiety that plagued him.

Leaving Emperor Yi’s cave, Gu Changge unleashed a vast divine sense, sweeping across the foreign realm. The heavens and earth rumbled, and even the Dao retreated in Gu Changge’s imposing presence. He sought the ancestors of the remaining imperial clans in the foreign land, believing they wouldn’t dare to linger in their caves after the recent events. Gu Changge suspected they might temporarily try to leave the foreign land to escape the upheaval.

“Judging from the current situation, I still need a few quasi-immortal emperors,” Gu Changge remarked, his words eliciting terror from King Ming and the others trailing behind him.

In the foreign land, only one Emperor Yi had fallen, and now, Gu Changge seemed to be orchestrating another round of schemes against the ancestors of the other imperial clans.

The Immortal Kings, currently rejoicing, recognized their limitations—they were mere Immortal Kings, far from attaining the status of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. They believed they were not yet eligible to be targeted by Gu Changge.

Even Emperor Hong managed to escape.

Even in his state of relative relief, King Ming widened his eyes in astonishment. The patriarch of the imperial clan he had sought refuge in was none other than Emperor Hong.

They had planned to exchange the imitation of the Eight Desolation Demon Halberd, but now it seemed Emperor Hong had long disappeared from the frontier. Only a dao avatar remained in the empty cave, collapsing and dissipating with the arrival of Gu Changge.

In retrospect, Emperor Hong’s calm demeanor and suggestion to let nature take its course seemed ironic. King Ming couldn’t help but feel wry amusement. Several other well-known ancestors of the foreign imperial clans had similarly vanished without a trace, leaving the immortal kings bewildered.

The revelation stunned all the immortal kings of the foreign realm, realizing that the ancestors of the imperial clan had anticipated these events and sought a way out from the beginning.

As quasi-immortal emperors, they knew the situation could not be changed, yet they still fought for their lives. The immortal kings naively believed that the actual imperial clan ancestors would be revived to lead them against Gu Changge. Emperor Yi had also been a pawn in the hands of the other imperial clans.

It’s possible that when Emperor Yi faced this adversary, the ancestors of the imperial clans were already on alert, plotting their escape from the foreign realm.

Immortal kings exchanged glances, wry smiles reflecting in each other’s eyes.

Crossing the boundless sea was much easier for the quasi-immortal emperors than for the Immortal Kings. Despite its dangers, it proved a far better alternative to remaining in the foreign land as a source of nourishment.

The beings of the immortal domain had anticipated a catastrophic battle with the foreign land, expecting a sweeping conflict that would affect countless creatures. However, everything concluded abruptly. The foreign realm surrendered, and all the immortal kings submitted to Gu Changge. The fall of an ancestor from a foreign imperial clan marked the unexpected and swift end to what was once thought to be an impending cataclysm.

The ancestors of the remaining imperial clans had successfully evacuated with their clan members, leaving the foreign realm ownerless. The news of this battle reverberated through the mouths of several immortal kings in the Immortal Domain, causing shockwaves and stirring discussions.

Gu Changge’s absolute strength left everyone in awe, with the impact reaching the quasi-immortal emperor level, spanning the heavens and myriad domains, and even alerting a future immortal emperor.

The fall of a quasi-immortal emperor had profound implications, and mentioning Gu Changge as the “black hand of immortality” sparked further speculation about the future after ten thousand ages.

In the aftermath, blood-colored lightning and rain of blood marked the landscape, casting a sense of trepidation upon the Immortal Domain.

Gu Changge spent the subsequent years contemplating reuniting the Immortal Domain and the Foreign land for the sake of the world of mountains and seas. However, the long separation between the two realms and their incompatible laws presented significant challenges, surpassing even the exclusion of the upper realm from the Eight Desolations and Ten Regions.

During this period, Gu Changge became aware of a mysterious occurrence reported by other immortal kings, including King Luo.

Numerous subordinates had inexplicably gone missing, and efforts to deduce their whereabouts proved futile. Gu Changge suspected that these subordinates might have entered a particular place.

Upon investigation, King Luo confirmed the disappearances and explained, “A few years ago, such incidents began to occur. Initially, I didn’t pay much attention, but the situation has escalated recently. After joint efforts with other immortal kings, we noticed a clue. The last aura of those who vanished still lingers within the Immortal Domain. However, some formation or restriction conceals the secret and aura, making it undecipherable even for Immortal Kings. We speculate that there are small worlds hidden in certain places within the current Immortal Domain, possibly not limited to the rumored Nine Heavens.”

Gu Changge raised an eyebrow at the mention of Nine Heavens, prompting further discussion on the mysterious disappearances within the Immortal Domain.

Gu Changge’s eyes took on a mysterious glint as he recalled a fortuitous encounter with a specific individual named Qin Wuya.

This senior brother, hailing from the forbidden era, had unintentionally ended up in Nine Heavens due to unforeseen circumstances. Spending hundreds of years within, his essence eventually became encased in origin, forming an origin stone later unearthed at the True Immortal Academy.

Upon delving into Qin Wuya’s memories, Gu Changge discovered that Nine Heavens was where his stay had been limited to the periphery.

Qin Wuya remained unaware of the comprehensive panorama of Nine Heavens. As fragments of his memory returned, Gu Changge discerned the location of this enigmatic realm.

People worldwide had long yearned for Nine Heavens, but it harbored traps and graveyards and served as the abode of the deceased.

The name “Nine Heavens” derived from the Nine Heavens, resembling a stacked pyramid where each heaven was adjacent to the next, totaling nine. Each of these heavens was a genuine “Heaven,” harkening back to the “Heaven” that had been crusaded against in the celestial battle.
