Chu Gucheng was astonished. He was surprised to receive Star King Bai Mei’s answer. Clasping his hands behind his back, he paced back and forth the Rising Sky Treasure Palace in disbelief. However, he quickly returned to his senses.

 

Before delivering the jade tablet to this place, Elder Jin of the Rising Dawn Civilisation must have also informed the Primary Hope Holy Church about the horrifying and terrible malice that the Rising Dawn Civilisation had detected. Therefore, it was impossible for the Primary Hope Saintess to be unaware of this matter. So, how could she choose to enter seclusion at this critical juncture?

 

“Why would she deliberately refuse to help?” Chu Gucheng frowned, sinking deep into his confusion and thoughts.

 

The Primary Hope Saintess possessed a Civilisation Supreme Treasure known as the Mirror of Reincarnation. It was a Supreme Treasure that could deduce one’s fate. Its power was mysterious to the point of being unfathomable. Even an Ancestral Dao Realm expert, whose fate was almost impossible to deduce, could analyse and predict part of their future with the Mirror of Reincarnation. Using it, they could then prepare various countermeasures against their fate, which was an absolutely miraculous feat.

 

Chu Gucheng once thought about seizing the Civilisation Supreme Treasure for himself. It was just that the Primary Hope Saintess’s strength was so unfathomable that he could not get an accurate grasp of her prowess, so he was wary of her. In the end, he gradually lost interest in the idea.

 

“Could it be that the Primary Hope Saintess knows something? Is that why she is doing her best to avoid having anything to do with me? It is Human nature to avoid misfortune, after all. But isn’t she being overly cautious?

 

“Primary Hope Saintess, you’re heartless.” His eyebrows knitted together tightly, and his scowl grew increasingly deeper. Then, light flashed in his eyes as though an idea had suddenly occurred to him.

 

…

 

At the same time, on the other side.

 

The situation in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation had gradually stabilised.

 

Over the past few months, the Spirit Ruin Royal Family, which had moved around in the Boundless Expanse, had firmly established themselves in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation.

 

What was originally the Wu Clan’s territory had been allocated to them by Gu Changge. Now, it was their new homeland.

 

During this period, Wan Yanxiu and the Spirit Empress burnt sacrificial scriptures and activated a Grand Array with the intention of welcoming their people from the Spirit Ruin Civilisation to their new home.

 

This method required them determining the coordinates in the Boundless Expanse before they could open a Spacetime passage. It was equivalent to connecting a passage that passed through the Boundless Expanse.

 

The resources consumed in such an endeavour was simply unimaginable. Fortunately, the Spirit Ruin Royal Family had been preparing for very many years. Having specifically accumulated their resources for this purpose. In short, they had enough to cope with the consumption.

 

Gu Changge did not leave Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun idle either. He instructed them to leave the Immortal Spirit Civilisation and head to the Boundless Expanse to develop the surroundings and determine the coordinates of the True Worlds in the surrounding vicinity. He used to perform these tasks himself, but there was no need to do that now.

 

At first, the various Forces in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation were worried that the Primary Hope Civilisation would dispatch an envoy along with a large number of experts to destroy the stable situation once more. However, the Immortal Spirit Civilisation remained peaceful.

 

Even though some time had passed, there was no sign of the experts from the Primary Hope Civilisation. It was almost as though the Primary Hope Civilisation had given up on the Immortal Spirit Civilisation and refused to meddle in the affairs of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation.

 

The possibility shocked the various Forces. Some of them were also filled with disbelief, wondering whether the Primary Hope Civilisation was scared of Gu Changge. Otherwise, why was there no reaction to Gu Changge’s provocations?

 

It had to be said that the envoy’s Dharma Body had been crushed to death by Gu Changge in front of so many Forces. How could the Primary Hope Civilisation endure such shame and humiliation?

 

These speculations shocked the various Forces even more. No wonder Gu Changge was so indifferent and nonchalant towards the Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

Naturally, the Clans in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation did not know the real truth. They assumed that they were under the jurisdiction of the Primary Hope Civilisation, but they actually only belonged to one of the Forces in the Primary Hope Civilisation. These were extremely secret matters that only Forces like the Zhuo Clan and the Hun Clan knew about.

 

In any case, the fact that the Primary Hope Civilisation did not send any experts over was good news for the various Forces. After all, nobody wanted the situation, which had finally stabilised, to be broken again.

 

Several months passed in the same manner. Finally, the date of the Heavenslayers Conference that was decided by Gu Changge arrived!

 

The whole Immortal Spirit Civilisation moved for the conference. Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun had also received the message, so they rushed back from the Boundless Expanse. Similarly, the Ancestors of the various Forces hurriedly departed from their respective locations so that they could attend the conference.

 

The Heavenslayers Conference that was held in Breeze Ancient City caught the attention of all throughout the entire Immortal Spirit Civilisation. This was the first time anyone had known the reason for the conference. It was not until this moment that the words ‘slay Heaven’ were spread to the public, causing a huge sensation.

 

Be that as it may, there were many cultivators who still did not understand the meaning behind the Heavenslayers Conference. Only some of the Dao Realm experts seemed to realise something. Their expressions changed drastically, revealing their fright and horror. Hun Yuanjun and Zhuo Fengxie were no exception.

 

Inside Breeze Ancient City, a layer of mist steamed above the ground and lingered in the air. It was an extremely large and spacious area with a platform at the centre. Purple mist surged vigorously, and Chaos Qi flowed like a babbling brook. There were pavilions and palaces, surrounded by majestic Mystic Mountains and magnificent Ancient Mountains. In addition, there were numerous developed Small Universes suspended in the void, enough to accommodate innumerable people.

 

The experts from various Forces in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation had already arrived with their members. Hence, there were crowds of people and shadows in the vicinity. It was just that they were unexpectedly silent. Nobody said anything, choosing to stare at the platform quietly instead.

 

Meanwhile, Zhuo Fengxie, Hun Yuanjun, Wan Yanxiu, and many other Dao Realm experts stood in the surrounding pavilions.

 

Mu Yan, Mo Tong, and the Spirit Empress were present too. They were equally curious about the meaning behind the Heavenslayers Conference that Gu Changge had deliberately ordered for the various Forces of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation to attend.

 

Judging by the scenery, it seemed as though a lecture was about to take place. However, Gu Changge had no such intentions. He swept his gaze over the people gathered here, then he revealed the speech that he had prepared in advance without wasting any time.

 

He talked about the cruel nature of Heaven, which treated all living creatures like mere toys. Just like how every epoch had an ending and every universe would eventually wither away, how Heaven also had a limited lifespan. In the vast Boundless Expanse where countless living creatures thrived, nothing could escape its Great Purge.

 

For that reason, he wanted to establish the Heavenslayers Alliance. He wanted to erase the Heavenly Dao and restore peace to the world so that the living creatures in the world could escape the vicious cycle.

 

As soon as the words left his mouth, a huge commotion immediately broke out everywhere. The information was like a large meteorite that dropped into the deep sea, creating boundless and towering waves that swept out in all directions.

 

Even Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun, who were mentally prepared in advance, were extremely frightened. In fact, they nearly suspected that they had heard wrongly.

 

The higher one stood on the hierarchy, the more one could naturally understand. That was especially true in regard to the meaning behind the so-called Great Purge.

 

Why did the Immortal Spirit Civilisation willingly submit to the Primary Hope Civilisation when they had to offer a large number of resources and Fortuity Crystals every epoch as a tribute? It was simply because they wanted to obtain the protection of the Primary Hope Civilisation so that they could remain safe against Great Purges.

 

Otherwise, even Dao Realm experts would be nothing more than ‘weeds’ to be cleared away during a Great Purge. They would not be able to escape the fate of being harvested.

 

The Spirit Empress, the White Bone Ancestor King, and Wan Yanxiu were equally as shocked and filled with disbelief.

 

When they first heard Gu Changge saying that he wanted to hold a Heavenslayers Conference, they had some vague guesses. It was just that they did not dare to believe those words. After all, the very idea was absolutely astounding. Even a Supreme Civilisation dare not utter those words.

 

Yet, Gu Changge not only spoke those words aloud but also announced that he was going to establish the Heavenslayers Alliance. He even claimed that he would erase the Heavenly Dao and restore peace to the world so that their descendants could escape the vicious cycle.

 

“I guessed that the Young Master must have had some sort of horrifying obsession and madness. So, that’s the reason…” The Spirit Empress’s eyes were filled with admiration and reverence. These words and their consequences… Who would dare to speak of them so lightly, much less bear their weight? Nevertheless, she was plagued with a vague sense of worry.

 

“Slay Heaven…” Flames danced in the eyes of the White Bone Ancestor King. He could not contain his emotions. After all, he suddenly recalled his memories from a distant past that had originally gotten hazy with time.

 

With the emergence of these two words, his memories continuously burst forth like bamboo shoots springing up from the ground. The shattered mountains, the destroyed homeland, the endless blood, and the spreading flames… The beautiful woman he once loved, the disciples he once valued, the prosperous Sect he once reigned…

 

There was a time when he was so brilliant that he often looked down his nose at his peers, and his accomplishments left everybody in his era breathless from amazement. However, all the people he knew perished. His Sect was also destroyed, and his homeland collapsed. Even his original world was torn to pieces.

 

Everything was crushed until nothing was left during the Great Purge.

 

At this moment, the White Bone Ancestor King abruptly raised his head and stared fixedly at Gu Changge. A large part of the reason why he previously surrendered and chose to serve Gu Changge was that he had no other choice if he wanted to live. But, he seemed to have obtained another reason now.

 

“Master…” Mo Tong glanced at the White Bone Ancestor King in confusion. She was unable to understand why there was a familiar light dancing in the eyes of her cruel and ruthless Master, whom she had always feared. That light was… obsession and lunacy.

 

The commotion showed no signs of disappearing. On the contrary, the experts of each Force could not help whispering among themselves despite their shock. After all, those who came here for the conference had the protection of at least one Dao Realm expert. That was why they could understand the meaning behind Gu Changge’s words from earlier.

 

Many of them were deeply frightened. They anxiously stared at the sky, worried that the words ‘slay Heaven’ would bring about boundless disasters.

 

Matters such as the Great Purge were generally beyond ordinary cultivators because they were not at the level to concern themselves with such matters. Be that as it may, they would gain the qualifications to know about everything once they reached a certain point in the Immortal Emperor Realm. That was because they also obtained the qualifications to be ‘harvested’.

 

On that note, Forces such as the Spirit Ruin Royal Family, which did not receive the protection of a Supreme Civilisation, were the most sensitive to such topics.

 

The Spirit Ruin Royal Family often had to use every means necessary to prevent complete annihilation whenever they faced a Great Purge. Unfortunately, their True World’s vitality would always wither after each Great Purge. The people of the Spirit Ruin True World would be pushed to the brink of death, so they would need an extensive period to recover and recuperate from each Great Purge.

 

Even so, such an outcome was considered relatively good since they did not suffer complete annihilation during a Great Purge. It had to be said that countless Civilisations and True Worlds would perish forever during a Great Purge, buried in the dust and reduced to a mere chapter in history.

 

“The Young Master’s strength is unfathomable. Despite saying such words, there are no consequences whatsoever. What’s wrong with following him and establishing the Heavenslayers Alliance? Besides, we wouldn’t need to seek the protection of a Supreme Civilisation anymore.”

 

When Wan Yanxiu and numerous Elders of the Spirit Ruin Royal Family exchanged a glance, they could see excitement and temptation in each other’s eyes.

 

Nevertheless, everything had advantages and disadvantages. Just like the words ‘slay Heaven’, this matter was a huge taboo that should never be mentioned. That was because even a Supreme Civilisation could not bear the consequences.

 

There were rumours and records of a genuine Immortal Supreme Civilisation that attempted to reach the Land of Truth in the past. However, the Immortal Supreme Civilisation was struck by an incredible power and demolished in an instant.

 

A genuine Immortal Supreme Civilisation was a Civilisation that produced Transcenders before, but even they did not dare to mention the words ‘slay Heaven’ so lightly.
