Chapter 1789
1789 It’s A Pity To Destroy It, Reverse Time, He’s Back
Gu Linglong gathered her Immortal’s Core energy and manifested it into a giant golden palm to crush Tai Yunzi.
Tai Yunzi narrowed his eyes at the impactful attack, and his gaze turned solemn before he countered with his own punch. When the punch and palm clashed, the clouds rumbled.
It was a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal versus a Third-grade Gilded Immortal.
However, the blast from the collision put the Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal at a disadvantage, and he was sent flying away. At that, his face paled.
!!
“You’re strong! There’s no way you can achieve such strength with that cultivation level. It’s the weapon you wield!” Tai Yunzi said grimly.
He realized Gu Linglong’s golden robes had Immortal Sparks surrounding it like a powerful Immortal Weapon.
“That’s not all of it.”
Gu Linglong raised her arm.
Light burst from the palace, and a golden seal flew into the sky.
It was the human race’s Supreme Treasure, the Human King Seal!
“The Human King Seal?!”
Tai Yunzi’s eyes widened in fear.
Following the expansion of the empire, the human race’s Supreme Treasure, the Human King Seal, gained extraordinary power since it was closely related to the fate of Firmament Star’s people.
Now, the Human King Seal possessed the power to rival an Arch Gilded Weapon.
“Suppress!”
Gu Linglong shouted and channeled the Human King Seal’s power, which she unleashed at Tai Yunzi, attempting to crush him.
Bang!
Tai Yunzi was blasted away by the seal, and blood gushed from his mouth.
“As expected of the Human King Seal, but I heard it can only be fully utilized in Chu Kuangren’s possession. With you wielding it, how much power can you draw?”
“At least it’s enough to kill you.”
Gu Linglong channeled the power from the Human King Seal again. As she raised her hands, the seal flipped into the sky. Her aura of the Human Queen expanded and pressured the entire airspace with unrivaled power.
Elder Ruyan saw the battle in the sky and somehow saw Chu Kuangren’s shadow in Gu Linglong.
“Is this what they meant by loving a person so much that she becomes him?” Elder Ruyan thought.
Then, she unsheathed a sword to fight her enemy. She blasted a powerful sword qi forward, and its sharpness frightened her enemy.
It was another Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon.
The enemy was frightened, to say the least. How could every single one of them possess an Arch Gilded Weapon?
Should it not be a rare weapon? How could it be mass-produced to the point that everyone was given one?
How ridiculous!
“How many treasures did Chu Kuangren leave behind?”
“Even when he’s dead, he’s here haunting us.”
“Hmph! The more treasures, the better. Kill them, and we can get all of them for ourselves!”
Back in the sky, Gu Linglong used the power of the Human King Seal to overwhelm Tai Yunzi, forcing him to a disadvantage.
Then, Tai Yunzi shouted and released a powerful energy aura. It was the power of the Heavenly Dao!
The Heavenly Dao’s energy expanded outward, and its domineering aura pressured the entire airspace.
“The power of the Heavenly Dao Sect!”
Gu Linglong raised a brow. “It’s not easy mastering this level of Heavenly Dao energy. It seems like you’ve sided with them for a long time.”
“From the moment Chu Kuangren offended the Heavenly Dao Sect and killed their Divine Daoists, the Firmament Empire has been their target since. The Heavenly Dao Sect has planned for this to happen within, and your fate is sealed,” Tai Yunzi said as he cackled coldly.
“It is your fate that’s sealed!” Gu Linglong said. Then, she channeled her Immortal’s Core energy to the limit.
The Human King Seal was aimed at Tai Yunzi.
This time, Tai Yunzi did not avoid or dodge it. Instead, the Heavenly Dao energy in him overflowed and manifested into a massive palm.
“Splendid Heaven-shattering Palm!”
With a bang, the Human King Seal was blasted away.
Tai Yunzi’s energy presence surged, and he pulled out a whisk from his sleeve. It was also a powerful Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon.
“This is the Heavenly Dao Whisk given to me by the Heavenly Dao Sect Master. With this and my cultivation, I have absorbed more than ten planets worth of lives and finally mastered the Heavenly Dao energy. Gu Linglong, you shall die today!” Tai Yunzi flung his whisk forward.
As the whisk was flung forward, Immortal Sparks shone, and Heavenly Dao energy erupted.
The power blasted Gu Linglong away.
“It’s premature to speak of the outcome with such certainty.”
Gu Linglong refused to back down even if she was in a difficult situation. As the ruler of an empire, she had to live up to her identity and pride, so she maintained her commanding presence.
As she raised the Human King Seal into the sky, it grew in size before it crashed down at Tai Yunzi.
Tai Yunzi flung his whisk forward, and tens of thousands of Immortal Sparks were blasted at the Human King Seal.
The collision between the two energies shook the entire capital.
Countless cultivators saw the battle and prayed for their Queen. Once Gu Linglong was defeated, they would become slaves again, not to the Gods but to the Heavenly Dao Sect.
“King, please watch over us!”
A cultivator knelt before the towering statue of the Human King in the capital and prayed with deep reverence.
Bang!
Gu Linglong was sent flying away by the powerful energy.
By then, Tai Yunzi had also noticed the people praying before the statue in the capital. He looked at Chu Kuangren’s statue and grunted coldly. “There’s no use praying to a dead person. The statue is an eyesore. When I take control of the empire, I will erase the name from history!”
He wielded his whisk and flung it at the statue.
The massive power destroyed the statue, causing it to collapse. The chunks and debris were falling down on the people.
“No!” Gu Linglong’s eyes widened anxiously.
When she wanted to save her people from the collapsing statue, Tai Yunzi locked onto her weakness and channeled his Immortal’s Core energy to the limit.
He flung the whisk forward, blasting powerful Heavenly Dao energy at her.
“Your Majesty!”
Elder Ruyan, War Admiral Chaos, and the others were horrified by the scene.
Just then, the entire Firmament Star trembled as if it sensed something coming from space.
Following that, an indescribable force expanded from the sky and shrouded the entire capital
The Clouds and wind stopped for a moment.
The falling chunks of statue and debris froze in space as well. Even the rumbling Immortal’s Core energy fluctuation and the energy that swept across the realm everything froze.
As if the world was paused, everything stayed still.
The only thing that remained active was the people’s thoughts and senses, but they were moving and reacting at a much slower rate.
It felt like their thoughts would freeze if they stopped thinking.
What was happening?
Tai Yunzi’s eyes were overflowing with fear.
The power that paused the world, what was it?
He tried using the Heavenly Dao energy in him, but it was not reacting.
His Heavenly Dao energy was inferior before that massive power.
“The statue is quite nice. It’s a pity that it’s destroyed,” a voice said indifferently.
Then, a figure in white appeared among the people.
The statue was magically pieced back together, one by one.
It was like time was turned back.
“This voice”
Gu Linglong could not hold her joy back when she heard the voice.
Everyone was granted freedom to move around again, but all kinds of Immortal’s Core energy were erased following the disappearance of the mysterious energy.
Tai Yunzi, Yue Wufang, and the others were horrified as they looked at the figure in white standing on top of the statue.
“It’s him! He’s back!”
