Beyond the borders of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty.
A massive city floated amid the clouds.
The walls surrounding the entire city stretched for more than three thousand li and stood over a thousand zhang tall, like a towering Heavenly Palace standing firm.
Dazzling runes gleamed like hundreds of millions of stars scattered across the city walls.
At this moment.
Within the city, atop a pavilion spanning a thousand mu, a white-haired, white-bearded elder opened his eyes.
He gently raised a hand.
A special sheet of paper slowly appeared and burned silently.
As it burned, a line of writing emerged:
—A Deity had manifested within the territory of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty.
"A Deity?"
The elder frowned.
He abruptly rose to his feet, his tall and imposing body radiating a terrifying aura.
"Deities cannot live."
"Any Deity must die."
"As descendants of the God Slayers, we will never permit any Deity to appear."
Whoosh—
He extended his hand.
A green broadsword flew over from the distance and landed in his grasp.
He then carried the green broadsword and left the pavilion that covered a thousand mu.
He did not even linger in Heavenly Origin City, leaving the city directly.
He headed north all the way.
Ten days later, he had already arrived beyond the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty.
And upon arriving here—
He saw four powerful Demon Race experts.
"Gu Ming?"
"What are you doing here?"
"The territory of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty has already been allotted to our Demon Race. This is not a place for your six lineages."
A Bear Demon as tall as a mountain and dazzlingly golden all over looked down at the elder Gu Ming, its voice deep.
The aura around it was exceedingly terrifying, far surpassing that of a Ninth-Order Demon King.
