Those from the Forces were startled upon hearing what those from the Heavenslayers Alliance had said.

 

Many felt their faces burning with embarrassment as they were guilty. Previously, they had been afraid of the Heavenslayers Alliance, worried that they would walk down the same path as the Land of Celestial Suffering. Now, it seemed that things were different from what they had imagined.

 

The Heavenslayers Alliance Leader, Gu Changge, had never considered harming them. Instead, he had considered the interests of all living beings. They had been overly worried for invalid reasons the entire time.

 

Moreover, these beings of the Heavenslayers Alliance were indeed pious and fervent. Unlike what they had imagined, these people were not brainwashed into becoming followers of Gu Changge.

 

Those Forces had willingly become part of the Heavenslayers Alliance. They were not forced.

 

“It seems that we’ve gotten the Heavenslayers Alliance Leader wrong. We have some prejudice against the Heavenslayers Alliance.”

 

“Although the Heavenslayers Alliance has expanded rapidly and they have occupied many territories in the past thousand years, they’ve never caused any turmoil.”

 

Some patriarchs and Elders of smaller Forces whispered among themselves while feeling conflicted.

 

“There’s a reason that the people of Heavenslayers Alliance revere their leader so much,” said an ancient being after a sigh.

 

Anyone who saw this and heard what they had said would be respectful of Gu Changge even if they had never seen him.

 

“This is ridiculous. Stop trying to fool everyone. It’s a fact that the Heavenslayers Alliance Leader is evil. Don’t you get it? You think that you’ll be safe by joining the Heavenslayers Alliance?

 

“Before the next Great Purge comes, the Heavenslayers Alliance will be destroyed by the various True Worlds and Kingdoms. All of you are merely asking for death.”

 

The leader of the Solar Heavenly Clan donned a gloomy expression. He did not expect those from the Heavenslayers Alliance could easily change everyone’s opinions about them. Many smaller Forces were swayed.

 

In his opinion, Gu Changge was an evil leader, and those from the Heavenslayers Alliance were reckless to say that they intended to destroy Heaven. They would receive their retribution one day for going against Heaven.

 

Many leaders donned icy expressions as they confronted the people of the Heavenslayers Alliance outside the hall. They did not care about what the other party said.

 

The Primary Hope Civilisation belonged to them and those from the Heavenslayers Alliance were invaders. Their existence threatened the safety and status of the Immortal Forces in the Primary Hope Civilisation. Naturally, they were eager to get the Heavenslayers Alliance destroyed.

 

What was more, the existence of the Heavenslayers Alliance would bring about an unimaginable calamity to the Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

Although they were surprised that Gu Changge had fallen for scheme the Founder of the Imperial Celestial Palace had cooked up, the outcome was a good one.

 

“Older Sister.” Ling Yuxian’s fair face turned pale when she heard what the people of Heavenslayers Alliance said.

 

She looked incredulously at Ling Yuling, finding her unfamiliar. She could not imagine that her Older Sister who had kept her company for countless years had turned into such a ruthless and scheming person. Ling Yuling even tried to harm the person who had saved her before.

 

Ling Yuxian felt heartbroken when she heard the people of Heavenslayers Alliance say that Gu Changge had only agreed to sign the Primary Hope Covenant for the sake of Ling Yuling and the Imperial Celestial Palace. He did not want to slaughter people for no reason.

 

Gu Changge’s trust in Ling Yuling and the Imperial Celestial Palace had turned into a weapon that they used against him.

 

The Elders and Ancestors of the Imperial Celestial Palace sighed, feeling helpless and bitter.

 

Gu Changge was a benefactor of the Imperial Celestial Palace. Many were aware that he had helped save Ling Yuling.

 

If it was not necessary, they never wanted to go against Gu Changge. It was not a matter of righteousness. It was just that they were of different stances. However, everything changed when Ling Yuling schemed against Gu Changge. All of them from the Imperial Celestial Palace became terrible people who had harmed their benefactor.

 

They could not blame Ling Yuling, for she had only done so for the sake of all living beings.

 

“How did things end up this way? The Founder…” Elder Jiu Lin sighed. He turned to look at Elder Xian Yun, whose face had been pale the entire time. It seemed that she was anxious.

 

She had lost her composure. Elder Jiu Lin felt that she was merely worried about the future. After all, Gu Changge had stayed in Xian Yun Practice Grounds for some time. He placated her by saying, “Don’t feel overly burdened, Elder Xian Yun. We should just let nature take its course.”

 

Upon hearing that, Elder Xian Yun came to her senses. She looked away from the area that had vanished with difficulty. Then, she grunted and fell silent.

 

Elder Jiu Lin shook his head and fell silent as well. Needless to say, there would be a tough battle between the two parties. It was apparent that those from the Heavenslayers Alliance would not let them off.

 

“This is not the outcome I wanted. Regardless of whether you believe me, it doesn’t matter. I’m also fine with you misunderstanding and criticising me.” Ling Yuling hovered in midair as her dress swayed with the wind. Grand Runes surrounded her and a horrifying aura exuded from her hands. Different Principles turned into the four seasons, Yin and Yang, reincarnation, thunder, and storm. It seemed that she was ready to sweep a wave of immense energy across her opponents.

 

Her flawless face showed that she was calm and collected. She knew that any explanation was useless now.

 

Those from the Heavenslayers Alliance would not believe her statement. Even her Younger Sister was disappointed in her and found her unfamiliar. There would not be a peaceful end to this conflict.

 

“Since you have nothing to say, then it’s war. All of you have to pay the price,” said an Ancestral Dao Realm expert from the Heavenslayers Alliance with a dispassionate gaze. He took a step forward and showed up in front of Ling Yuling in an instant.

 

He extended his palm which seemed able to tear apart the present and the past. His immense power could suppress everything. The evolution of Chaos was enacted on his palm. All sorts of Great Dao orders formed an ocean.

 

The other Ancestral Dao Realm experts of the Heavenslayers Alliance also made their move. They directly exchanged blows with people of the same level outside the hall. They used all sorts of Principles in the Dao Realm, which turned into powerful bells, cauldrons, seals, and furnaces.

 

Lights of different colours shot forward as though they were determined to destroy everything.

 

Booming sounds were heard as countless universes exploded. Such fluctuations could destroy everything, which was horrifying.

 

The battle between Dao Realm experts broke out again. The other cultivators would instantly turn into dust if they encountered these repercussions.

 

The entire Mountain of Wonders quivered. Many places were damaged as large chasms appeared. Then, they would break into small pieces. The stars around them were destroyed as these massive hands traversed across the universe.

 

Dao Artifacts hovered between Heaven and Earth. A single Divine Light could penetrate the universe. It was a sight that shocked all beings in the Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

The battle between Dao Realm experts soon impacted the outside world. Their Dharma Bodies were enormous as they were able to prop up the sky. Every move they used was ferocious.

 

Some Small Universes which had been impacted turned into nothingness. Horrifying repercussions spread across Spacetimes of different periods. Many of them collapsed. At this moment, even people outside the Primary Hope Civilisation could sense the battle.

 

It was the first time so many Dao Realm experts had gotten into a fight at the same time. This was a calamity that was unimaginable to all living beings.

 

A Dao Realm expert could destroy a Great Universe with a flick of his fingers. They could easily turn the Principles of the Great Dao into attacks with their hands.

 

Destroying a world was as easy as popping a bubble for them.

 

The battle between the Ancestral Dao Realm experts was even more terrifying. They were like the true Dao Ancestors as they were seated in different Spacetimes and exchanging blows. The fluctuations oscillated between different Spacetimes. Every Spacetime evolved and came apart before their eyes. The lights reflected everything in the world.

 

Ling Yuling showcased her incredible power. She was one of the oldest Great Sages in the Primary Hope Civilisation. Although she had not returned to the peak of her power, an average Ancestral Dao Realm expert would not be a match for her.

 

As she extended her thin finger, all the Dao abilities and stars in front of her exploded.

 

Golden vines made from the Great Dao penetrated every part of Spacetime. They swung across the universe like heavenly swords. Several Ancestral Dao Realm experts of Heavenslayers Alliance were injured and sent flying away as they spat blood in midair.

 

Although Ling Yuling had held back, she was significantly more powerful than those Dao Realm experts, after all. No one around her could go against her. She leapt into the air and extended her hand. A light ripple spread from her finger and expanded, turning into a golden light hole which contained a power that could suppress the entire world. The Dao Realm experts around her were sent flying away.

 

“This war is meaningless. Although all of you are powerful, there’s no way you’re a match for the people here. Dissolve the Heavenslayers Alliance now and I won’t make things difficult for you.” Ling Yuling said calmly.

 

“Do you think you’ve won? The Alliance Leader is indestructible and undying. You don’t stand a chance of defeating him.”

 

What Ling Yuling had said yielded no results. Jing Tianyuan charged forward as a mist surrounded him. A hint of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. His elegant face became ferocious and hideous. As he extended his fist, a dazzling light crashed into the golden light hole, causing it to explode.

 

Ling Yuling looked at this old man who used to be her servant. Although she knew he was no longer the real Jing Tianyuan, she still could not help but sigh. The real Jing Tianyuan would never make a move against her, nor did he have such incredible power.

 

His power increased tremendously after he started following Gu Changge. It had surpassed its previous peak.

 

In the Heavenslayers Alliance, only Jing Tianyuan had a right to exchange blows with her.

 

Old Man Sai Ya and the Old Daoist Priest had not made a move. They only watched the battle with dispassion. It was as though they were trying to protect the weaker cultivators of the Heavenslayers Alliance.

 

The war continued and its impact soon extended beyond the Mountain of Wonders. Those from various Forces started retreating. Cultivators below the Dao Realm, especially. They hurriedly ran for their lives while terrified.

 

They would not even be considered cannon fodder even if they had the guts to join a battle of this level.

 

“Kill them!” Outside the Mountain of Wonders, an army seemed to be coming over. Clouds covered the sky as their murderous intent surged.

 

The knights were carrying sabres and halberds as they were coming over from outside the world. The ancient beasts they were riding growled loudly, stopping anyone from trying to leave the Mountain of Wonders.

 

The flag of Heavenslayers Alliance swayed with the wind while exuding an ancient aura. It had turned into a weapon. It was as though an ancient spirit had awakened as it intimidated the enemies around it.

 

Meanwhile, people like Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun were exchanging blows with enemies in the same Realm. Both parties were injured.

 

The Dao Realm experts of Heavenslayers Alliance behind them started making a move. They were battling against the Elders and leader of the various Forces from the Primary Hope Civilisation. They were soon covered in blood.

 

All the Forces like Bright Light Temple, Tathagata Buddha Realm, Towering Divine Cave, and Primary Hope Holy Church had been dragged into this war.

 

The only ones who had not made a move were the Primary Hope Saintess, Dao Monarch Chang Ming, Shang Chongming, and other ancient beings who were watching everything from a distance.

 

In their opinion, the outcome of the war would not be surprising, so they did not need to join the war.

 

Now, they had to be cautious against Gu Changge who might not be dead. Although the fatal attack could certainly kill an Ancestral Dao Realm expert, it was a wonder if it could kill Gu Changge.

 

Just then, some dull *thuds* were heard coming from the area destroyed by the Golden Book of Covenant. It sounded like heartbeats.

 

Divine Lights of different colours spread in all directions while carrying the Chaos Energy. All the energy particles were cast away. Then, a streak of light as scarlet as blood beamed from that area, dying the entire Mountain of Wonders red.

 

No sounds or movements were felt coming from that area previously. But now, the immense Life Force surged from it like a flood. The people in the chaotic war were shocked. When they came to their senses, they looked in that direction.

 

Dao Monarch Chang Ming, Shang Chongming, Xi Yin, and the other ancient beings immediately looked at that area where sword cries were heard. They looked cautious.

 

“I knew it couldn’t kill him…” Ling Yuling sighed almost imperceptibly before shifting her attention to the Primary Hope Saintess.

 

The Primary Hope Saintess was startled for a moment before understanding what Ling Yuling meant. After a moment of silence, she nodded in response.

 

Suddenly, a sigh was heard coming from the area, which was supposed to have evaporated.

 

Following that, a glow radiated from that area. The person who had stepped out of it tossed away a golden ancient scroll. A dazzling light beamed from it before it turned into a massive covenant between Heaven and Earth.

 

Before the content of the covenant appeared, a slender hand broke it into pieces. The light dimmed as the broken pieces fell from the sky.

 

“Alliance Leader.”

 

Gu Changge was totally unharmed and not even a part of his clothes was damaged as he stepped out of the area with a calm expression. The people from the Heavenslayers Alliance were elated and excited. Although they had some blind and fervent confidence in Gu Changge’s power, the fatal attack earlier indeed made them feel anxious.

 

People like Mu Yan and Mo Tong were relieved.

 

Ling Yuxian, who was protected by the Elders of the Imperial Celestial Palace, breathed a sigh of relief. Although she knew the fatal attack probably could not kill the powerful Gu Changge, she was still worried.

 

The leaders of various Forces were wary as their archnemesis suddenly showed up. Many were in a state of disbelief. It was inconceivable that the destructive force could not even harm Gu Changge one bit.

 

It seemed that he was totally fine. He had only been watching the developments of the incident in silence.

 

Because of Gu Changge’s appearance, the chaotic situation calmed. All of them knew that it was merely the calm before the storm. A bigger crisis was looming over them.

 

If they had signed the covenant as they had planned without using any tricks, all this would not have happened.

 

Gu Changge was more powerful than they had imagined. Not only was he fine, but he could also easily destroy the Golden Book of Covenant.

 

It was impossible to kill him using the Golden Book of Covenant. Anyway, there was no use crying over spilt milk.

 

Many were bitter as they knew what was going to happen.

 

“I’m so disappointed in you.” Gu Changge looked calmly at Ling Yuling. There was not any emotion in his voice. He did not seem furious because Ling Yuling and the others had schemed against him.

 

It was as though the sigh earlier had shown the fluctuation of his emotions.

 

Ling Yuling did not dare to look him in the eye. Regardless, she had betrayed his trust She just shook her head and sighed. “I’m sorry, but this is not the outcome I wanted.”
