Silvery traces of the Power of Faith, which did not contain the slightest trace of impurity, emerged from across the world and gathered in these temples. A hazy silvery light enveloped those temples as a result, giving them a sacred yet impressive appearance.

 

“Is this what the Alliance Leader was aiming for? But why does the Power of Faith seem so different from what I have seen before?”

 

Zhuo Fengxie was secretly surprised.

 

He had already changed the way he addressed Gu Changge.

 

Countless cultivators, including Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun, had taken to addressing Gu Changge as ‘Alliance Leader’ after the establishment of the Heavenslayers Alliance. As for Gu Changge’s true name, even Zhuo Fengxie and the others did not know. They had previously just addressed him as Young Master Gu.

 

In Zhuo Fengxie’s eyes, the Power of Faith in front of him was completely different from the Power of Faith that he had encountered in the past. It seemed to contain an especially pure form of power that could even affect him. The realisation that the Power of Faith was extremely beneficial to his cultivation astonished him greatly.

 

“Could the emergence of the Heavenslayers Alliance have adhered to the people’s belief? Is that why such pure and unadulterated Power of Faith was condensed?”

 

The possibility piqued his interest, and the idea of researching the Power of Faith formed in his mind. Furthermore, he discovered that he himself was not an exception to the situation either. He had also become one of the contributors to the Power of Faith. The discovery made him wonder whether that was the biggest reason why Gu Changge established the Heavenslayers Alliance.

 

Due to these reasons, he became increasingly diligent about spreading the purpose of the Heavenslayers Alliance.

 

Everything that happened in the Cloud River True World during the recent period was also happening in similar Nascent True Worlds throughout the Boundless Expanse.

 

It was originally very difficult to determine the locations of these True Worlds in the Boundless Expanse, but the Immortal Spirit Civilisation boasted an incredibly long history of existence. Therefore, most of the Forces had some accumulation of heritage to their name. Part of their accumulated heritage was none other than the coordinates of these Nascent True Worlds.

 

Sometimes, the Forces would choose not to take any action when they discover the coordinates of a Nascent True World. They would simply leave a mark at the coordinates, allowing the Nascent True World to continue growing and developing so that they could harvest the True World when needed.

 

These actions were in line with the principle of having several plans to fall back on during desperate times. For example, if an unknown disaster were to strike one day, the entire Clan could migrate to any of the True Worlds with already known coordinates and settle down until they were ready to make a comeback.

 

In fact, the Wu Clan of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation initially came to the Immortal Spirit Civilisation for the same reason and eventually established their roots in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation.

 

Thanks to these reasons, Gu Changge could save immensely on time and energy. After all, he did not need to send men to explore deeper into the Boundless Expanse.

 

Many of the Dao Realm experts from the Zhuo Clan, the Hun Clan, and the Spirit Ruin Royal Family would spread the purpose of the Heavenslayers Alliance whenever they discover a new Nascent True World in the Boundless Expanse. As a result, the existence of the Heavenslayers Alliance began to spread across the Boundless Expanse and numerous cultivators who worshipped the Heavenslayers Alliance subsequently started appearing among these universes.

 

The Cloud River True World was just the trigger. Afterwards, more and more True Worlds that knew about the existence of the Heavenslayers Alliance began to pop up everywhere like mushrooms after a burst of rain.

 

…

 

The seemingly eternal and undefeated Suffering King City, located in the Land of Celestial Suffering of the Primary Hope Civilisation, was absolutely magnificent and imposing. Moreover, the entire city seemed to radiate with dazzling divine light.

 

The Eight-Headed True God and his companions, who initially planned to travel to the Immortal Spirit Civilisation to resolve the turmoil, were summoned by Chu Gucheng as soon as they returned to the Primary Hope Civilisation. Hence, they hastily rushed over from their respective territories.

 

Several Star Kings in the Land of Celestial Suffering had also received the summons and returned from their respective locations. At this moment, they were gathered inside the Suffering King City and waiting to be summoned by Chu Gucheng.

 

The inside of the Rising Sky Treasure Palace resembled a vast and boundless Ancient Universe.

 

Chu Gucheng was dressed in a simple long-sleeved robe as usual. His appearance was ordinary, and his figure was moderate. He stood with his hands behind his back, accompanied by the white-haired and white-bearded Star King Bai Mei.

 

Having cultivated for more than a hundred epochs at this point, his strength was unfathomable. In fact, he was on the verge of crossing the threshold of the Eight Decay.

 

Needless to say, he had a Wife and children. The descendants of the Chu Family were generally outstanding individuals, who stood out even amongst the younger generations.

 

Leading the way in their respective generations, they had created incredible legends and records for themselves. Their achievements did not lose to his prestige.

 

Aside from the Eight-Headed True God and other subordinates in the Rising Sky Treasure Palace, a few of Chu Gucheng’s descendants were also standing respectfully by the side.

 

In the past, Chu Gucheng would not have summoned his descendants easily unless he had important matters to discuss. To the Chu Family of the Land of Celestial Suffering, he was the forefather and the pillar of the Clan. If anything were to happen to him, then the huge Land of Celestial Suffering would probably face a crisis and be at risk of collapsing.

 

The Land of Celestial Suffering was simply too young compared with the other Major Forces in the Primary Hope Civilisation, having only existed for a very short time. Not to mention, Chu Gucheng was a newly risen star. Just in terms of heritage alone, it was impossible for the Land of Celestial Suffering to compete with the other Major Forces. Therefore, the fact that Chu Gucheng had suddenly summoned so many subordinates and experts with such urgency caused the entire Chu Family to be concerned.

 

They paid great importance to the matter at hand but could not help feeling worried at the same time.

 

“The last time the Wu Clan of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation contacted me was on the eve of their demise. I did not know what would happen at that time and simply assumed that a Lunatic was causing trouble. That is why I rushed over to settle the matter without informing you, Your Majesty. The Eight-Headed True God stood respectfully in front of Chu Gucheng and reported the incident in detail.

 

Even now, his companions were filled with lingering fears. If Chu Gucheng had not sent a message across the boundless distance and stopped them from heading towards the Immortal Spirit Civilisation, they would probably have shared the same fate as the Wu Clan by now. In fact, they would have been destroyed together with the Wu Clan.

 

At the time, they had simply assumed the incident was a simple rebellion that would allow them to stretch their limbs. Who could have imagined that Chu Gucheng would treat the incident so seriously? He even summoned so many experts because of the incident.

 

“It’s not your fault. The Immortal Spirit Civilisation was destined to face this disaster. Even if I went there in person, it would have been difficult for me to do anything. Moreover, things could have been very dangerous for me.”

 

Chu Gucheng listened to the Eight-Headed True God’s report and nodded slightly in acknowledgement. At the same time, he gained a rough understanding of the incident that took place in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation recently. His mood turned dark and heavy.

 

Just a few days ago, he sent Star King Bai Mei to the Primary Hope Holy Church with a handwritten letter to request a meeting with the Primary Hope Saintess. However, he was turned away at the door. Not only did he fail to meet the Primary Hope Saintess, but the letter was not delivered either.

 

Despite the setbacks, he did not give up immediately. He later went there in person, thinking that the Primary Hope Saintess was being overly cautious and heartless. To his chagrin, the end result turned out to be the same. He did not meet the Primary Hope Saintess. In fact, he could not even step foot into the Primary Hope Holy Church.

 

The results depressed him. For him to reach his current status in life, he had experienced countless hardships and setbacks. What kind of troubles and difficulties had he not seen before? Nevertheless, it was his first time encountering something so unpredictable.

 

The actions of the Primary Hope Saintess seemed to be drawing a clear boundary between them so that she could sever all ties with him. It was as though she did not wish to be involved in his fate.

 

Combined with the jade tablet that he previously received from the Rising Dawn Civilisation, he could not help feeling extremely gloomy. Moreover, there was a sense of unease and indescribable helplessness hanging over him.

 

Unfortunately, the Eight-Headed True God and the others in the Rising Sky Treasure Palace were unaware of Chu Gucheng’s current mood. They were shocked and horrified by his previous statement.

 

“Even you are helpless towards the affairs of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation, Great Ancestor?”

 

The members of the Chu Family were equally shocked and incredulous to think that the Great Ancestor, who was practically omnipotent and invincible in their eyes, was speaking with such uncertainty. After all, it had to be said that the Immortal Spirit Civilisation was just a Civilisation subordinated to the Land of Celestial Suffering. There was not a single Ancestral Dao Realm expert there, so why was the Great Ancestor so scared?

 

Chu Gucheng sighed softly and swept his gaze over the crowd without explaining anything.

 

“I summoned you here just to inform you of the situation so that you can make adequate preparations. I foresee that the Land of Celestial Suffering will soon face an unimaginably horrific disaster, which might even sweep across the entire Primary Hope Civilisation. No Force will remain unscathed.

 

“After this, you should restrict the Clan members from leaving. In particular, you must strictly prohibit anybody from interfering in the affairs of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. It is best to simply feign ignorance about the situation. Don’t interfere even if the other Forces in the Primary Hope Civilisation mention anything regarding them.”

 

Waving his hand dismissively, he continued in a deep voice, “I will be in seclusion for some time. If anything urgent arises, you may inform Bai Mei. He will pass your message to me.”

 

If not for the unusual situation, he would not have taken such drastic action. It was just that he could only take one step at a time now.

 

There seemed to be a black mist surrounding the Immortal Spirit Civilisation and obscuring the fate of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation, so it was impossible to gain any insight into the situation in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. At present, it was probably best not to provoke the Immortal Spirit Civilisation as much as possible.

 

The crowd in the Rising Sky Treasure Palace seemed stunned by Chu Gucheng’s warning. Nevertheless, they did not dare to disobey his instructions despite their confusion and hurriedly responded respectfully.
