Gu Yuanqing's move undoubtedly severed a branch of the Great Dao River of the Profound Cosmos Great World, which originated from the Origin Dao Sea and had the Fa Yuan Realm as its main trunk.

After more than ten thousand years of careful management, the area previously covered by the North Spring Realm was quite large. Now, taking over it all at once is tantamount to cutting off a large piece of meat from this original world.

Although everything that had happened before seemed to take a long time to describe, it was actually only a few breaths.

Gu Yuanqing's initial compromise with Great Simplicity and his millennia-long period of dormancy were all for this unexpected moment.

A naturally functioning world and a world controlled by humans are two completely different things, and that's why it was possible to take control of it in such a short time.

However, for Gu Yuanqing, the real test was yet to come, because he knew that when he took over these Small World and spread his power into one of the North Spring Realm, Great Simplicity and the Old God would inevitably notice.

One can borrow the power of the Heaven and Earth Stele; the other is the Old-Era God Lord, whose own being is in harmony with the origin of Heaven and Heaven and Earth, so he can easily sense this change.

Undeniably, the power of the Profound Cosmos Great World is still stronger than that of the North Spring Realm at this time, after all, this world is so vast and its power is so immense.

Although the North Spring Realm is of a comparable level, it is, after all, a newly born world with too little time to grow.

However, the difference between the two is that Gu Yuanqing can completely control the North Spring Realm and condense its power into one force, while the control of the Profound Cosmos Great World's Great Simplicity and the Old God over the Profound Universe Realm is far inferior to that of Gu Yuanqing.

This is precisely where Gu Yuanqing's confidence comes from!

Having lay dormant for millennia, hiding within the realm, today is the time to reveal its brilliance.

And what happened next was exactly as Gu Yuanqing had predicted.

As the power of the Great Dao of the North Spring Realm emerged from the Tianfang Domain and rapidly spread outwards, a ripple appeared in the Void, and the phantom of a majestic monument materialized.

When it appeared, the power of the Great Dao of the entire Heaven and Earth gathered, and the boundless power temporarily suppressed the spreading power of the Great Dao of the North Spring Realm.

This is the power of the Heaven and Earth Stele!

Great Simplicity stepped out, his expression grave as he looked down and said, "Gu Yuanqing, show yourself. I know it's you. What is your intention in doing this?"

The main peak of the North Spring Realm also appeared from the Void, and the Cloudmist dispersed.

Gu Yuanqing stood with his hands behind his back on the mountaintop, looking at Great Simplicity, and said with a smile, "With such a fierce battle taking place in the Origin Dao Sea, why is Daoist Friend Great Simplicity not watching from within, but instead diverting his attention to come here? Aren't you afraid of causing problems?"

Great Simplicity said solemnly, "Why do you ask a question you already know the answer to? Your actions are threatening to shake the very foundation of this world. Do you understand the consequences of your actions?"

Gu Yuanqing was not flustered. The power of the Heaven and Earth Stele could suppress the expansion of the North Spring Realm within the Fa Yuan Realm, but it could not suppress its expansion in other places. Gu Yuanqing never thought that he could completely devour the Fa Yuan Realm in such a short time.

This is completely unrealistic. The Fa Yuan Realm is too vast, it can be described as boundless, and can be called a great world. Even if there were no one to stop it, it would take countless years just for it to become powerful.

Therefore, Great Simplicity's arrival here will not actually affect Gu Yuanqing's strategy too much; all that is needed is to stop him.

He smiled faintly and said, "Daoist Friend Great Simplicity, you reside within the Heaven and Earth Stele, so you must know that this world is approaching its Final End. You said that you are the embodiment of the spirits of all things and wish to save all spirits in the world from the Epochal Calamity. Therefore, you wish for Divine Path Cultivator to become the God Lord, to sort out all the paths, and to quell the Final End."

But you know better than I do that even if the God Lord were alive, the Calamity of Final End could only be delayed, not completely eradicated.

Becoming God Lord would only delay this calamity; one day, this world will return to the Reincarnation and head towards decay and emptiness.

If that's the case, why not help me take control of this world!

Great Simplicity Dao's gaze fell upon the Great Mountain in front of him. In the past, he couldn't see through this place and didn't know its origin, but now he could clearly see that this was clearly a world of its own!

Moreover, he could sense from the movement of the Great Dao River that many worlds, including the Exquisite Realm Domain, had completely broken away from the Great Dao River of the Fa Yuan Realm and could even threaten the existence of the Fa Yuan Realm itself. The level of this world must be extremely high, and fundamentally, it must not be below the Dharma Source Realm!

When Gu Yuanqing said this, Great Simplicity was slightly shaken, but after a moment, he shook his head and said, "I don't Daoist Friend why this world has grown to this point, but things are not that simple. If you do this, you will shake the foundation of the Great Dao. Without the suppression of the Great Dao of this world, Xuangen will be completely awakened from his slumber."

You can't stop him now!

Xuangen?

At this moment, Gu Yuanqing finally learned the name of this Old God, who, having survived countless Reincarnation of Heaven and Earth and earth, was worthy of this title.

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "How would you know if you haven't tried?"

Great Simplicity shook his head again and said, "Daoist Friend, stop."

Gu Yuanqing asked, "Why?"

Great Simplicity said, "If you fail, you will be doomed. I cannot entrust the Countless Living Beings to the will of one person. With your cultivation and your world, if you fail, you can still retreat, but this Heaven and Earth will never have another chance."

"Is there a difference? Do you really think that with their current Creation, even the Demon Lord and the like can defeat him? They're merely prolonging their lives. Besides—"

Gu Yuanqing stared at Great Simplicity, paused, and then slowly said, "He has already World Origin Integration. Even if his power is suppressed by the Supreme Divine Artifact, is it truly possible for someone to become God Lord?"

Great Simplicity silence; some things are simply not open to debate.

To surpass Xuangen, one must become God Lord; and to become God Lord, one must Dao Integration of Heaven and Earth and control the World Origin.

However, the origin of this world has long been in harmony with Xuangen. Even though he is not a person of this Reincarnation Heaven and Earth, and is not favored by fortune, he cannot fully match the current great Dao of Heaven and Earth Great Dao, so he cannot fully control the world.

However, it cannot be denied that this Heaven and Earth Great Dao still bears its own imprint.

This means that if anyone wants to become the God Lord, they still have to snatch this control over Heaven and Earth from Xuangen.

This in itself is a paradox!

Gu Yuanqing waited quietly; he wasn't in a hurry anyway.

Moreover, the reason he said all this was, to some extent, because he actually hoped that this being, who could use the power of the Heaven and Earth Stele, could help him seize control of the Fa Yuan Realm.

With proper coordination, things will naturally become much easier.

After a long silence, Great Simplicity spoke up, "But there is still a sliver of hope."

"Is that so?" Gu Yuanqing smiled as he looked at Great Simplicity. "Or is it that Daoist Friend Great Simplicity is merely harboring selfish motives?"

Great Simplicity narrowed his eyes slightly and said indifferently, "How Daoist Friend Gu interprets me is his own Daoist Friend, but this matter is not up for discussion! However, I can give Daoist Friend a chance!"

Whether it's the Creation or the Demon Lord, their chances of becoming God Lord are extremely slim, because they were born from Xuangen's power and are difficult to escape his control. But it's different for Daoist Friend, Daoist Friend cultivation, if you wish to unite with the origin of Heaven and Earth, you may have a sliver of hope!

The Supreme Divine Artifact was born from the fundamental Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and Earth, and operates in accordance with the Rules, without bias or prejudice. However, since I was born within the Heaven and Heaven and Earth Stele, I can borrow a portion of its power. If Daoist Friend, fellow Daoist, are willing to walk this path and share the fate of Heaven and Heaven and Earth, I can lend Daoist Friend a helping hand!

Gu Yuanqing was somewhat disappointed, but it was actually within his expectations.

As one's cultivation level increases, one's understanding of the Fa Yuan Realm and even this great world deepens, and one begins to vaguely perceive certain Xuanji.

Even after countless World Reincarnation, Supreme Divine Artifact remain Indestructibility, existing independently beyond the boundaries of Heaven and Earth.

However, they are also closely related to this world itself. If the North Spring Realm were to devour the Fa Yuan Realm, would these Supreme Divine Artifact still be able to survive?

Gu Yuanqing didn't know, and perhaps Great Simplicity also didn't know, or dared to gamble.

"Alright, since Daoist Friend Great Simplicity has said so, then let's each rely on our own methods!" Gu Yuanqing sighed softly.

Upon hearing this, Great Simplicity's expression gradually sharpened, and he said calmly, "I was willing to give Daoist Friend Daoist Friend this opportunity because he is a being born of this Heaven and Earth, not an enemy. Daoist Friend does not cherish it, only caring about himself and disregarding the Countless Living Beings in this Heaven and Earth. How are you any different from Xuangen?"

If that's the case, Daoist Friend are a thief of Heaven and Earth, an enemy of all spirits. Since I am gathered by all spirits, I will not allow you to shake the foundation of this world. Today, I have no choice but to Enforcer on behalf of heaven!

As soon as the words were spoken, the Heaven and Earth Stele trembled violently.

Countless Innate Runes flew out from the stele, and countless Rule Divine Artifact of the Nine Heavens shone brightly, Divine Artifact power showering down and Empowerment the Heaven and Earth Stele.

The Great Dao River hummed, and its waters crashed down, landing on the illusory image of the Heaven and Earth Stele.

The illusory image of the Heaven and Earth Stele quickly solidified, growing larger and more majestic!

The power of the North Spring Realm, which had originally been expanding Outer Realm, had merely stagnated, but at this moment it was being suppressed and rapidly retracted.

Boom!

The Heaven and Earth Stele pressed down on the exposed peaks of North Spring Mountain, as if the entire Heaven and Earth was pressing down on the North Spring Realm!

"This is the Heaven and Earth Stele!"

"What happened? Who committed an act that angered both heaven and man, causing the Heaven and Earth Stele to Present World?"

"That's the Tianfang Domain, could it be that Gu Yuanqing?"

At this moment, countless Cultivator from the Fa Yuan Realm turned their gazes toward this place. The great power of the Heaven and Earth Stele was revealed, many Rule Divine Artifact of the Nine Heavens were unleashed, the Great Dao River was in turmoil, and the power of the entire world was pressing down on this place. How could anyone not care?

The situation was quite different within the Tianfang Domain. Even though the power of the Heaven and Earth Stele did not descend upon them, its power was too immense and vast, and its level was too high. The mere aura emanating from the clash between Heaven and Earth and earth was enough to render them immobile and cause them to begin to suffocate.

Even consciousness ceases to function; even True God is no exception.

Only those at the God Level could barely maintain some autonomy, but their faces were already filled with horror!

Heaven Beyond Heaven.

The God King Cangwu, the Jun Tian God King, and the Heavenly Law God King all turned their gazes down.

They were stunned and puzzled, not understanding what had happened. After all, their attention had been focused on the increasingly intense pressure on the Guixu Heavenly Abyss. It was only through the combined efforts of the three of them that the turbulent Heavenly Abyss was suppressed, and the power of the Final End was kept within the Barrier.

Seeing this scene almost caused Heavenly Abyss to lose his composure due to the turmoil in his mind.

"Who exactly is Gu Yuanqing? According to Heaven-Measuring's guess, the last time Gu Yuanqing fought against the Demon Lord and the God King Wuxiang, the Heaven and Earth Stele also revealed..."

"Now, he's made his move again! What exactly did he do?" Jun Tian God King.

The Heavenly Law God King, "Could it be that he is not from this world?"

He had always had some doubts, after all, Gu Yuanqing's appearance was too strange. He used to think that Gu Yuanqing was related to the Creation God King, and that the Way of Creation he cultivated controlled the Creation True Realm, which was why he could have the power of God King. But as time went by, he slowly realized that this was not the case at all.

But how could a God King —no, more like Half-Step God Lord level cultivator—just appear out of thin air like that?

In fact, apart from the True God Calamity, neither the Tribulation of the Heavenly God nor the God King Calamity has ever occurred.

This makes absolutely no sense!

There is also that world, where one can travel freely between multiple realms simultaneously, and even when the Boundary Gate are open.

Even now, no one knows the Xuanji behind it.

Now that the Heaven and Earth Stele has directly attacked Gu Yuanqing twice, this speculation naturally resurfaced in his mind.

The God King Cangwu said solemnly, "Perhaps, but this is not a good thing. With the Heaven and Earth Stele appearing and drawing upon the power of the Great Dao to suppress Gu Yuanqing, the Great Dao's Empowerment power that Heaven-Measuring and the Creation God King can receive will be greatly reduced, making it even more difficult to stop the Old God!"

Myriad God Ruins.

The Daoist Guanxing priest, using the Sky Monitoring Mirror to observe the direction of the Tianfang Domain, murmured, "I knew something was off about this guy surnamed Gu."

"The fact that this traitor caused the Heaven and Earth Stele to tremble must mean he has committed an act that Heaven and Earth cannot tolerate."

With a thought, he turned his gaze toward the direction of the Exquisite Realm Domain, wanting to see Gu Yuanqing's Motion and Stillness from there as well. But he was suddenly stunned, because the place that was supposed to be visible was completely dark.

This is not a concealment of Heavenly Secrets secrets, because Heavenly Secrets is concealed is mist, not darkness.

The current situation demonstrates that the power of the Sky Monitoring Mirror is simply unable to reach that place!

His pupils contracted slightly, somewhat horrified.

Just then, his mind stirred slightly, as if he sensed something, and finally he smiled faintly, knowing that the time had come.

Suddenly, he transformed into a streak of light and ascended to the Nine Heavens.

At the same time, other Dao Body rose from various places, eventually merging into one, transforming into a young figure dressed in divine robes.

An ethereal aura swirled around it, and if someone were to look at its face, they would find that its appearance seemed to Myriad Transformations, without any fixed form.

A Heavenly Book appeared in his hands, and a page was turned.

His body then vanished into Void, and when he reappeared, he was already in the Origin Dao Sea.

He looked at the three still fighting and bowed slightly. "Greetings, Father God!"

He then addressed the Creation God King and the Demon Lord, saying, "Brother Creation, Daoist Friend Yuanchu, how could you attack the Father God?"

Amidst the fierce battle, the Creation God King roared, "Wuxiang, you really do have a problem."

The God King Wuxiang smiled and said, "You are mistaken. It is not that I have a problem. The Father God created us, and his kindness is as heavy as a mountain. You should not be disobedient to the Father God!"

Even amidst this battle, the old man remained motionless within the vortex of the Origin Dao Sea. He said indifferently, "Wuxiang, you stop them. I Lower Realm to observe. This Reincarnation will finally have some interesting events, and won't be too boring."

"Yes, sir!" Wuxiang bowed again.
