Influence
Amidst the flames and intense light, Gu Jinlai emerged, bringing forth a treasure.
The furnace for all living beings.
Immortal artifact.
This is the only spoils of war.
The power of the supernova explosion was too great. Mo Ziya not only left behind no remains or storage rings, but even the Heavenly Dao was scattered by the destructive power contained within it.
It's already quite remarkable that this celestial furnace was preserved.
Gu Jinlai, people have carried this magical artifact, gazing down at the Mo family's land where lava continuously surges forth.
"Star Destroyer".
He muttered to himself, "If I were to unleash a supernova explosion using the full power of my own Great Sun Core... that would be enough to destroy a star!"
Destroying a planet tens of thousands of miles in diameter is an exaggeration.
But it's just a planet a few thousand miles away...
Absolutely no problem.
Given the right location, unleashing the power of a supernova explosion deep within such a planet to shatter it completely and reduce it to cosmic dust would be no difficult task.
With his current strength, he can travel to Blue Star...
Let alone unleashing a supernova explosion.
He only needs to reveal his true immortal form and release his high temperature and gravity without restraint to act as a huge heat and gravity source, destroying everything in his path.
Because of the force field carried by the core of the Great Sun, wherever he goes, the technological equipment there will become chaotic.
Furthermore, due to the high temperatures released when the core of the sun is in operation, it can ignite the earth wherever it goes.
Even...
Even steel would melt into molten iron if it were within a mile or two of him.
Although steel has a boiling point of over 2,000 degrees, the temperature released from his body surface was already over 5,000 degrees.
The high temperature emanating from him was comparable to the more than two thousand degrees that melt steel into molten iron.
In addition, he maintained his immortal form...
Even considering the load on the core of the Great Sun, maintaining a height of only 2,400 meters, the high temperature and gravity it carries would still cause fatal damage to the Blue Star.
Especially...
No weapon on Blue Star could defeat him.
Given the strength of his current celestial body, which is composed of nuclear force and gravitational structure, even a high-yield hydrogen bomb hitting him head-on would not cause much damage.
At most, it's equivalent to an ordinary person getting a minor scrape.
Shedding a little blood is already a favor.
Moreover, the high temperature on his body and the surrounding gravity made it impossible for a hydrogen bomb to hit his body.
If the explosion had occurred more than ten miles away, the damage would probably have been less than a scratch.
"Call."
Gu Jinlai let out a long breath. "When I reveal my true immortal form, I'm simply not human..."
He paused as he spoke.
He is not a true immortal. After revealing his "immortal body," it seems that he should not be called a true immortal, nor should he be called a mysterious immortal.
It should be...
"A sacred state".
Gu Jinlai this, and they have only glanced at the Mo family, whose land was barren and desolate.
Some of my attention has been diverted to the mental world.
"Really."
He said something.
Pitch black as flame.
This is a Karma that is no less powerful than that of Wu Tianya, the Dean of the Martial Saint Academy in Fengyu City.
He sensed it briefly and realized that it would require forty-nine streams of light to cleanse it.
The number is not large.
In the blink of an eye, the rays of clear light extinguished the flames like water, and soon this astonishing Karma subsided.
"Those who create Karma will inevitably face calamity, but this calamity will not come immediately. Instead, it will accumulate for a certain period of time before it erupts. Moreover, the stronger one is, the greater the chance of overcoming the calamity. Theoretically, with my current strength, I don't need to cleanse this Karma. Within the Xuanxian Realm, there should be no one who can rival me anymore."
The Way of the Heart, from Gu Jinlai.
The main reason he was still quickly cleansing his body of Karma was because he was worried that too much Karma would attract the attention of that terrifying evil god deep in the true spirit world.
God knows if he allows his Karma to keep increasing, or if it will cause that evil god to awaken prematurely.
Therefore, these forty-nine rays of clear light still need to be spent.
Moreover...
Attention from Gu Jinlai has once again focused on those clear lights.
He didn't know how many members of the Mo family he had wiped out with his supernova explosion, but the number of Qingguang had climbed from almost nothing to an astonishing 1,600.
"With great power comes great responsibility, and even the cost of making a mistake is negligible compared to the ultimate gain."
Gu Jinlai.
An idea even popped into his head.
If he were to completely annihilate the entire Mohist school and raze the surrounding 30,000 li to the ground...
Perhaps the Karma will accumulate to the point where it takes hundreds of streams of cleansing light to wash it away, but the amount of cleansing light obtained will definitely reach thousands.
The thought sent chills down his spine, even for someone as shrewd as him.
I'm obsessed.
If he really did that, how would he be any different from those so-called evil spirits?
Although his current actions are truly demonic compared to those of the Mohists, he dares not say that what he is doing is absolutely right.
But at least he still adhered to his own principles and could ask for a clear conscience.
"My power has expanded too rapidly recently, which has caused problems with my State of Mind."
He murmured to himself Gu Jinlai.
"After the matters in the Xuanxian Realm are resolved, I need to calm my mind."
He pondered this in his heart.
Immediately afterwards, he lowered his head and his gaze fell on the two caves that were still discernible eight hundred miles away.
These two grotto-heavens are the two most crucial and important grotto-heavens of the Mohist school.
Its sturdiness far surpasses that of other grottoes.
Considering that he wanted to obtain some classic texts from the Mohist school, preferably enough methods for tempering the mind and spirit to enhance his mental strength, he deliberately avoided these two grotto-heavens when releasing the supernova burst.
Even so, the terrifying aftershocks of the supernova explosion still destroyed most of the two grotto-heavens.
"I just hope that the valuable items have some extra protection to preserve them."
Gu Jinlai saying a word to Zhang Yukun, telling them to hurry over, Gu Jinlai took a step and descended towards the extremely dilapidated cave.
Looking at the grotto that was once a blessed land of immortals, now engulfed in raging flames, Gu Jinlai have sighed with regret.
"The power of the supernova explosion was indeed great. It wiped out the entire Mo family in one fell swoop at the cost of only falling a small realm. But it was also very powerful. It was reckless in its destruction. With indiscriminate destruction, don't expect anything good to be left behind."
Just like back then, he unleashed his ultimate attack using the Eternal Furnace at the Perfect Level.
The essence of both remains unchanged.
It's simply that he was simulating nuclear fusion at the time.
Now he is simulating a supernova explosion.
Gu Jinlai searching through this grotto for a while, they soon arrived at a palace that was protected by an array even within the grotto.
Of course, with the destruction of the cave, the palace's formations also collapsed one by one, Gu Jinlai easily arrived inside the palace.
The palace was divided into several side halls, which stored some of the Lineage's supplies.
Perhaps because Mo Ziya carries the most valuable supplies with him in his storage ring, the supplies here are not top-tier.
At best, it's only one level higher than the Creation Sect, and it doesn't quite live up to the Mo family's status as the overlord of the Northern Region.
Gu Jinlai ignored it and soon arrived at a palace that housed many Jade Slips.
He flipped through the Jade Slip, and after a short while, he looked regretful. "There are quite a few Divine Ability and Cultivation Method recorded, but the most core Great Limitless Annihilation Sword Qi has not been left behind."
The Great Limitless Annihilation Sword Qi is a celestial technique.
It is a technique mastered by the Golden Immortals of the Great Dao.
Gu Jinlai, there have only been those who approach the level of celestial immortals...
Oh, now I've fallen to the level of a Seventh Heavenly Immortal.
He possessed the cultivation level of a Seventh Heavenly Immortal, but lacked sufficiently powerful Divine Abilities, which meant that in terms of combat, he was completely at the level of being challenged by others who were above him.
He had a premonition that if it were a prince or princess from a top power like the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty, relying on immortal techniques and artifacts, they could defeat him, a seven-day Xuan Immortal, with the cultivation of a five-day Xuan Immortal. They could probably even entangle with him for a while before calmly retreating.
Even if he raises his mental cultivation to the eighth or even ninth level of perfection, he still won't have much of an advantage against princes and princesses of the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty who are at the Sixth Heaven Xuan Immortal level.
This is the drawback of a lack of change and too few means.
This also highlights the weakness of innate deities against cultivators of the same level.
Gu Jinlai have been flipping through the palace's books and collecting these spoils of war, feeling a sense of something that is neither enjoyable to eat nor worth discarding.
At this moment, the communication jade talisman on his body vibrated slightly.
As he scanned the area with his divine sense, Zhang Yukun's divine sense fluctuations quickly came through. "Supreme Elder, we have arrived at the outer perimeter of the Mo family."
"We've arrived? No problem, just come in."
Gu Jinlai calmly said, "With your current strength and lineup, no one in the Mo family can stop you from dominating the world."
"Yes."
Zhang Yukun respectfully agreed.
Gu Jinlai took some time to search the nearby cave again, but still couldn't find any supplies or Cultivation Method that satisfied him.
"I kept over 1,600 strands of pure light unused, intending to see what Cultivation Method were worth learning to compensate for my lack of methods. But now it seems..."
Gu Jinlai shook his head. "Those most precious resources and Cultivation Method should have disappeared into the spatial turbulence along with Mo Ziya's death and the destruction of his storage ring."
The Mohists were painstakingly defeated...
The only thing worth something is the land itself.
Fortunately, there were still 1,600 beams of clear light and the immortal artifact, the Furnace of All Beings, to offer some comfort.
Although he, as a naturally born saint, might not necessarily be able to use the celestial artifact, the Furnace for All Beings.
As he pondered, he seemed to sense something and leaped into the air.
At the same time, hundreds of figures carrying streaks of light flew toward this direction at an extremely fast speed from the horizon.
The mecha army of the Creation Gate has arrived.
Although the core area of the Mo family had been transformed into a pitch-black inferno, the army of more than two hundred mechs remained vigilant and maintained their formation without any relaxation.
With these formations, they can maintain their strongest output at all times. With such a lineup, let alone ordinary True Immortals or Celestial Immortals, even if an Immortal Lord were to invade, they would be easily defeated.
"Supreme Elder."
Upon seeing Gu Jinlai, Zhang Yukun immediately came to greet him.
Although she was somewhat prepared after seeing the destruction of even the most core grotto-heaven of the Mo family, she still couldn't help but lose her composure when she saw her own Supreme Elder, exclaiming, "Supreme Elder, Mo Ziya and the others from the Mo family..."
"Dead."
Knowing what she wanted to ask, Gu Jinlai calmly said, "Just as you see, Mo Ziya, along with all the immortal lords and Dao lords of the Mo family, including most of the celestial immortals, true immortals, and illusory immortals, have been killed by me."
"Slay them all..."
Upon hearing what was said from Gu Jinlai the present, Zhang Yukun felt his whole body tremble slightly.
Mohism!
This is a hegemonic force in the Northern Region that governs countless people, has two Xuanxian (mysterious immortals) in charge, and dozens of Immortal Lords, Dao Lords, and Heavenly Immortals in charge!
The Myriad Stars Sword Sect, which had previously made the Immortal Kingdom and even the entire Longevity Realm feel threatened, was no match for the Mo Family, a powerful overlord.
But now...
Such a powerful behemoth was actually destroyed by the Supreme Elder alone.
All senior executives...
Slaughter them all!
The Supreme Elder's strength...
"There may be a few Dao Lords and Celestial Immortals who have escaped the net, but with your lineup, wiping them out shouldn't be a problem. I'll hand these people over to you as training material."
The voice from Gu Jinlai rang out again. "Next, take over and manage the Mohist school properly. Also, search the Mohist school thoroughly to see if they have hidden any valuable treasures or books in some secret places."
"Yes."
Zhang Yukun responded in a trembling voice.
Gu Jinlai took to the air, intending to organize the Cultivation Method he had just acquired.
Although those classic texts did not contain the core inheritance of the Mohist school, or rather, the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect, organizing them would still greatly help him optimize the Eighteen Heavens Mind Tempering Method.
"The Mohist School!"
Zhang Yukun called upon the disciples of Shenwu Peak and quickly assigned tasks.
Just as she finished assigning tasks, a warship sped across the horizon at an extremely high speed, led by Ye Yan, Yun Fenglei, Zhong Shu, and several others from the Creation Sect.
Standing on the deck of the warship, looking down at the Mo family's territory which had been almost completely leveled, the group felt dizzy.
Even when they actually stepped into the ruins of the Mo family's cave, they still felt a sense of disbelief.
It's like being in a dream.
"We... we really defeated the Mohists? The Mohists, the overlords of the Northern Region, who have ruled the Northern Region for tens of thousands of years?"
Yun Fenglei felt his brain was lacking oxygen and his thoughts couldn't process it.
"Perhaps... maybe... it should really be like this..."
Zhong Shu muttered to himself.
"Our Creation Sect defeated the Mo Family... Does that mean that our Creation Sect... will become the new overlord of the Northern Region?"
Ye Yan inquired.
"This..."
Yun Fenglei and Zhong Shu dared not answer.
After all, the truth is terrifying.
The Creation Sect and the Mohist School...
The difference between them is far more than just a tiny bit.
Before the return of the Gu Jinlai, Ye Yan was the only True Immortal left in the entire Creation Sect, and it was almost falling below the threshold of a medium-sized power.
And what about the Mohists?
Dominator of the Northern Region!
A hegemon that surpasses medium-sized forces such as the Dragon Sword Sect and the Wind and Rain Pavilion; large forces such as the Heavenly Fire Sect; and top forces such as the Myriad Star Sword Sect and the Longevity Pavilion!
The difference in size between the two sides is so great that it is almost equivalent to the difference between a county magistrate, or even a town mayor and a president of a country.
"I never imagined that the Creation Sect could develop to this extent one day. It's really... unbelievable..."
Ye Yan's expression showed a hint of anxiety and uncertainty.
"You can completely trust the Supreme Elder."
At that moment, Zhang Yukun's voice came over.
She was still riding in the Cheng Ying mecha, after all, the danger to the Mo family had not been completely eliminated, and the fragile Heavenly Lords would not easily expose themselves to attacks from others.
However, through spiritual communication, her image and tone remained vivid in their minds, without affecting the communication in the slightest.
"Elder..."
Ye Yan, Yun Fenglei, Zhong Shu, and the others couldn't help but look towards the horizon.
Amidst the clouds and mist, he merged with the magnetic field of the stars Gu Jinlai, hovering above the nine heavens. On one hand, the tranquility above facilitated his comprehension of Cultivation Method; on the other hand, from his vantage point, he could immediately condense the Divine Light of Departing Fire to strike if he sensed any resistance from the Mohists.
"Yes, Elder, whatever decision he makes, we only need to choose to believe and follow his instructions."
Zhang Yukun said with a smile.
Looking at the Mo family compound, almost reduced to ruins, after marveling at the power of this force, what she thought about most was the legendary experiences of the Supreme Elder, and...
The supreme glory that the Great Sun Heaven Sect possesses this time.
Although the Great Sun Heavenly Sect no longer exists, and only the Celestial Master's Hall remains, compared to the days when the Great Sun Heavenly Sect had only a handful of members, the current situation for those practicing the Great Sun Heavenly Sect's Cultivation Method is quite different...
Or rather, there are countless celestial masters and disciples who practice the Great Sun Heaven Sect's Cultivation Method optimized by the Supreme Elder.
Not to mention her and Zhang Li's fame, even the founder of the Great Sun Heaven Sect probably couldn't have imagined that one day his successor would be able to develop the Great Sun Heaven Sect to this extent.
And yet, such a great being was born within the Great Sun Heaven Sect.
This property...
It was almost like a local high school, yet it produced a legend who ushered in an era of stars and seas.
"Since you are all here, please help me with some of the work. Let's clean up and eliminate the Mohists as soon as possible."
Zhang Yukun said, "The Mo family has a considerable amount of resources and materials. Once we have these resources, we must continue to forge the Cheng Ying mechs. Only when we have a thousand Cheng Ying mechs can we truly consolidate our rule over the Northern Region."
Her words brought Ye Yan, Yun Fenglei, Zhong Shu, and the others back to reality from the dreamlike scene before them, and they all nodded cautiously as if waking from a dream.
"Yes, yes, yes, get the materials to the Creation Gate as soon as possible to forge enough Shadow Carrier Mechs! Then we'll use the Shadow Carrier Mechs to maintain our rule over the Northern Region!"
"The first thing the Supreme Elder does when he occupies a place is to cleanse the local area and eliminate all evils, which shows his character of hating evil as if it were his enemy! This time, we can't let the Supreme Elder do it personally."
"At its peak, the Mohist school had hundreds of True Immortals and thousands of Virtual Immortals. We need to replace them to ensure control of the Northern Region. It's too late to cultivate those Saints and Virtual Immortals. The more Cheng Ying mechs, the better."
Several people chimed in.
When they refer to the Mahayana Realm and the realm of enlightenment, they unconsciously incorporate the terminology of the realm of immortality.
This is because cultivators at these levels have been habitually referred to in that way Gu Jinlai, and subconsciously, they have also changed their way of addressing them.
The Creation Sect quickly got busy eliminating and capturing the remaining forces of the Mohist school, while the Chi family patriarch Chi Xuehe and the Bai family patriarch Bai Shengyang arrived in haste...
They didn't even enter the territory of the Mohists.
Just as the two had left their respective factions and headed towards the Mohist school, they received news of the Mohist school's annihilation.
This news came as a bolt from the blue, leaving even the three Xuanxian ancestors stunned.
Once they understood what had happened, they dared not go to the Mo family again, or even cause any misunderstanding with the Creation Sect. They returned to their respective Lineage as quickly as possible and hastily summoned the core Immortal Lords of their clans for an alliance meeting.
At the moment...
The meeting had been going on for quite a while, but none of the three parties had spoken beforehand.
The three patriarchs were on high alert, their hearts heavy. Naturally, none of the younger generation at the Immortal Lord level dared to speak rashly, and the atmosphere in the meeting was extremely oppressive.
It took Chi Xuehe a while to come to his senses.
Looking at the solemn expressions of the various immortal lords, even in their projected form, the old man, who also possessed top-tier Xuanxian combat power, let out a long sigh, "How could they have been defeated so quickly?"
Upon hearing his voice, Bai Shengyang and Ji Longhua both looked up.
"Let's come up with a plan for what to do next."
Crimson River.
"What to do?"
Bai Shengyang said in a hoarse voice, "The Mo family has already been wiped out, what else can we do?"
His eyes held a hint of sorrow, like the mourning of a rabbit for the death of a fox. "Accept reality, a new overlord has emerged in the Xuanxian Realm."
"Overlord? I'm afraid he's more than just an overlord! The realm of an Eighth Heavenly Immortal! An unparalleled Great Destruction Immortal Technique! One strike... killed a top-tier Immortal who had already activated a forbidden array, unleashed the Sword Qi of All Beings, and was giving birth to the Great Limitless Annihilation Sword Qi, along with dozens of Immortal Lords, Dao Lords, and Celestial Immortals... What kind of power is this!?"
Ji Longhua's gaze swept over everyone. "What qualifications do we have to compare ourselves to such a powerful figure and be considered equals among the overlords?"
His words left Bai Shengyang speechless.
Especially after he said that, he couldn't help but recall the footage of the destruction of the Mohist school recorded by his disciples.
That kind of rainbow light is so dazzling.
That kind of pure and shocking destruction.
That unstoppable mass extinction, that great magic...
It's so powerful it's breathtaking!
"With Jiang Yufeng's Creation Gate, it can no longer be viewed as a regional overlord... but rather... the ruler of the world..."
"Red Blood River said in a deep voice."
"Dominate..."
Bai Shengyang muttered these two words to himself.
Only forces that rule over a region of the world are called dominant forces.
The Creation Sect had only just conquered the Northern Region, yet they couldn't help but give them such high praise. Could it be...?
At this moment, as if he had received some information, Ji Longhua suddenly said, "Everyone, Luo Jiuxiao and Wang Xuanjing, the elders of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect, have sent me a message, inviting us to a meeting."
"Luo Jiuxiao, Wang Xuanjing!?"
Chi Xuehe was startled.
As people who have always been extremely wary of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect, how could they not know that these two are the true rulers of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect!?
Send them a message now...
"So even the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect can't sit still anymore?"
Bai Shengyang said.
The three top-tier Xuanxian exchanged glances and quickly understood each other's meaning.
"Then let's talk."
Crimson River said something, then waved his hand.
All immortal masters have withdrawn.
However, four people remained at the scene; these were the other Xuanxian from the Three Great Families.
However, they are less senior and less experienced than the others.
Soon, two beams of light were projected into the conference room, revealing the figures of a young scholar and an old man with an air of otherworldly wisdom.
It was none other than the Supreme Elders of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect—Luo Jiuxiao and Wang Xuanjing.
