"You!?"
Primordial looked at Gu Jinlai and chuckled, seemingly about to say, Naughty.
But when he sensed the evolution of the powers of destruction and creation within Gu Jinlai, his pupils narrowed slightly.
"This is..."
It was not only him. Creation, Origin One, Brahma Cultivator, Dark Ruins, Chaos, Nine Nether, including Ancient Desolation, Kindling, Origin Desolation, and all the other evil gods, fixed their gazes on Gu Jinlai. Their emotions surged and fluctuated rapidly.
"The Three Sainthood Realm!?"
"Gu Jinlai has also mastered the Three Sainthood Realm... No, he's already reached the Creation Realm?"
"What's going on? This human race should have perished..."
Amid wave after wave of astonished voices, a phantom universe gradually condensed behind Gu Jinlai.
Compared to Primordial's simulation, which merely displayed the path, the phantom universe around Gu Jinlai was more substantial and far more oppressive.
The instant this universe appeared, the will of Gu Jinlai contained within it began instinctively rejecting and expelling the power of the Three Thousand Great Dao.
It was like erecting a shield that supported the heavens in an ocean surrounded by colossal waves, repelling all the tsunamis and currents, constructing a world of calm seas and clear skies whose laws of operation were determined entirely by his personal will.
Almost at the same moment he raised this universe, the Dao Ancestor who had originally been situated at its core, seemingly a pillar of creation supporting the universe's operation, shifted his gaze over once again.
A great terror and great destruction, so intense that it seemed the heavens and earth were about to collapse, came rolling forth and filled everyone's senses.
"Not good!"
Origin One growled again, "The Dao Ancestor is attacking!"
Emotions surged through Kindling, Eastern Desolation, and the mighty figures present.
Composure. Horror.
"Block the Dao Ancestor's peering first."
