In the hall, all of them donned solemn expressions. They had initially intended to find out if Gu Changge was still in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation through this revolt.

 

Much to their surprise, he had never left. Instead, he had been hiding in the dark, waiting for those revolting Forces to show themselves.

 

This caused the moles that Chu Gucheng had planted in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation to be destroyed.

 

Gu Changge had most likely dissipated the dark fog for Chu Gucheng to notice. This was how he fooled them, creating the illusion that he had left the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. This showed that Gu Changge had noticed them and was not afraid of the Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

“He’s probably still in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation, waiting for us to go over.” Chu Gucheng appeared serious. The premonition in his heart intensified. He thought about the sense of anxiety he felt when he was in seclusion and the information sent from the Rising Dawn Civilisation. [Is it inevitable for me to go through this disaster?]

 

He had initially intended to steer clear of the affairs in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. However, regardless of how he placated himself, he could not resolve the anxiety in his heart. It had been bugging him from beginning to end.

 

If he could not resolve this problem, he would be left with a Heart Demon. That was why he even contacted the Forces in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation and made a move, despite knowing he should not get involved.

 

“Your Majesty, things in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation are indeed thorny. Since your birthday party is around the corner, why don’t we take this chance to inform the other Forces of the Primary Hope Civilisation about this matter?”

 

“The man they address as ‘Young Master Gu’ is arrogant. He ignores the rules of this world and has deliberately established the Heavenslayers Alliance. He knows that it is a taboo in the Boundless Expanse.”

 

Eight-Headed True God and the others spoke and came up with suggestions.

 

At this point, no one would dare to head to the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. Even Chu Gucheng was wary.

 

Anyway, the Primary Hope Civilisation was one of the Supreme Civilisations. Their power was beyond imagination. If they could join forces with the other powerful Forces and send an army over, the Immortal Spirit Civilisation would be destroyed regardless of how dangerous it was. They simply did not believe ‘Young Master Gu’ could single-handedly go against the entire Primary Hope Civilisation!

 

When Chu Gucheng heard his subordinates’ words, he furrowed his brows and said meditatively, “It seems that we indeed need to inform the other Forces about this matter. The Land of Celestial Suffering alone might not be able to solve this problem. And, if we fall into danger by then, the other Forces won’t be able to escape either. From what I’ve gathered, I suspect that the so-called Heavenslayers Alliance is founded by the remnants of the Black Disaster that had not been completely eliminated. Their goal is to destroy Heaven and annihilate the Heavenly Dao. A ridiculous pipe dream. Such goals are only made to fool others into working for them.”

 

“This is the same basis the Black Disaster is built on top of. This is something I, the Primary Hope Saintess, and the others had supposedly destroyed. They abducted and brainwashed incalculable number of people, kept them in isolated worlds to chant their scriptures every day to provide with an infinite amount of Power of Faith.”

 

The expressions of Eight-Headed True God and the others changed when they heard that.

 

The words ‘remnants of the Black Disaster’ seemed to carry a horrifying chill that made them fearful.

 

“Your Majesty, why don’t you go to the Primary Hope Holy Church again? Perhaps things have taken a turn for the better.”

 

The white-haired Star King Bai Mei, who had been furrowing his brows, tried to persuade Chu Gucheng.

 

The Primary Hope Holy Church hold a special meaning and status in the Primary Hope Civilisation. Moreover, there was a Civilisation Supreme Treasure named the Mirror of Reincarnation there.

 

Previously, he went over with Chu Gucheng’s letter but was turned down. He naturally did not get to see Primary Hope Saintess. Later, Chu Gucheng headed over, but the result was the same. He did not have a chance to see her as well.

 

Upon hearing the old man’s words, Chu Gucheng considered the matter as a myriad of expressions came over him.

 

A moment later, he nodded slowly and solemnly said, “The Primary Hope Saintess is refusing to see us. She is unwilling to deal with the karma. But, if this matter has something to do with the remnants of the Black Disaster, she’ll have no choice but to have a hand in this. I’ve contacted Elder Jin and the others from the Rising Dawn Civilisation. Since this is an important matter, we indeed need to use the Mirror of Reincarnation.”

 

Upon hearing that, all of them turned solemn. They knew what Chu Gucheng meant.

 

His words suggested that if Primary Hope Saintess still refused to see them, those from the Land of Celestial Suffering would have no choice but to force their will upon her. After all, this matter had something to do with the future of the Land of Celestial Suffering and Chu Gucheng’s fate. Caution was required.

 

“Just do it according to my orders. Inform the other Forces about the Heavenslayers Alliance. Tell them the remnants of the Black Disaster have made a comeback. Also, Bai Mei and the other Star Kings, please head over and invite the powerful experts from other Forces to attend my 130^th-epoch birthday party.”

 

“Make sure that those from Purple Sky Mountain, Imperial Celestial Palace, Towering Divine Cave, Bright Light Temple, Endless Demon Territory, and Tathagata Buddha Realm to come.” Said Chu Gucheng.

 

With his hands behind his back, he looked out the hall with a dark gaze. His expression was frightening. He did  not have any evidence to prove that the Heavenslayers Alliance had something to do with the remnants of the Black Disaster. However, if he did not say so, the other Forces would steer clear of the matter, thinking that it had nothing to do with them.

 

Since the trouble was caused by those from Land of Celestial Suffering, they should resolve it on their own. The other Forces would happily see them suffer.

 

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

 

Soon enough, the rest respectfully left the Rising Sky Treasure Palace following his order.

 

After they were gone, Chu Gucheng finally stopped furrowing his eyebrows.

 

He looked out the window and muttered, “I rose to prominence in the Burning Sun Realm. When I was weak, I was betrayed and almost killed. If not for my Master’s help, I wouldn’t have survived. After going through so many hardships, I finally attained enlightenment and brought my Clansmen and lovers here, where I built the Land of Celestial Suffering.”

 

“Then, after cultivating for several epochs, I finally reached the Dao Realm. In the following 100 epochs, my cultivation improved massively. Even though many Forces in the Primary Hope Civilisation had tried to repeatedly kill me, I could always get out of the woods. I’m can consider myself a very fortunate person. I’ve been a cultivator for a long time, but this crisis is the most troublesome I’ve ever come across. There doesn’t seem to be any hope of survival. Just who in the world is that man called ‘Young Monster Gu’?”

 

Chu Gucheng was making guesses about Gu Changge’s background.

 

Then, a slender figure came into his sight from a distance. She was gentle and beautiful. She was Chu Gucheng’s Wife, called Wang Xuexin. The two of them met in the Burning Sun Realm and has been deeply in love till now.

 

“Dear, since you’re worried about this matter, why don’t you look for Senior Dharma Sage and ask him to make a deduction?” Wang Xuexin softly said.

 

She was the Queen of the Land of Celestial Suffering who was concerned about her country, so she was naturally aware of the crisis they were facing. The Dharma Sage she had mentioned was Chu Gucheng’s Master, who was an old monster whose cultivation was too profound to scrutinise.

 

When they were in the Burning Sun Realm, Chu Gucheng accidentally obtained an ancient jade which carried a wisp of Dharma Sage’s Soul. The Dharma Sage was in danger, so he had no choice but to let a wisp of his Soul wander around. It eventually landed in the Burning Sun Realm.

 

It was then that Chu Gucheng became Dharma Sage’s disciple. Thanks to his guidance and teachings, Chu Gucheng was able to get through many crises.

 

Then, Chu Gucheng transformed from an ordinary young man into the king of the Land of Celestial Suffering, who had control over billions of lives and countless universes in the Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

It could be said that he would not have become who he was today without the Dharma Sage.

 

“Do you want me to look for my Master, Xuexin? But, I don’t even know where he is. Although he’s strong, he’s still trying to go through his Eighth Decay Tribulation. The last time we met, he said he had to head to the depths of dimensional Spacetime to look for a chance to achieve a breakthrough. It has been several dozen epochs since then. I can’t even contact him. Moreover, I might not be any weaker than my Master now. Since I don’t even have a solution, I don’t think he can help me solve the problem either.”

 

Upon registering his Wife’s presence, Chu Gucheng sighed and shook his head.  It was not that he did not want to look for his Master. It was just that he could not do so.

 

“I see.” Wang Xuexin was startled upon hearing that. She was far weaker than Chu Gucheng. Even with the help of many treasures and Artifacts, she still had a long way to go before she could make it to the Dao Realm.

 

She initially thought it was merely some ordinary trouble. She did not expect her Husband to be so anxious.

 

Chu Gucheng shook his head and smiled before asking, “Forget it. Let’s put the matter aside. Did you come to look for me for some other matter, Xuexin?”

 

Although he and Wang Xuexin were deeply in love, she was not his only woman. Along the way, Chu Gucheng had come across many brilliant women. He had many lovers and Wives.

 

Wang Xuexin appeared helpless as she said, “I’ve come here to talk to you about Xiao’er. He didn’t listen to me and has left the Land of Celestial Suffering when I wasn’t paying attention. Although I’ve asked Uncle Fu to follow him, I’m still worried he might fall into danger…”

 

Upon hearing that, Chu Gucheng was startled for a moment before appearing furious. “That unfilial Son… We’ve spoiled him. How dare he leave the Land of Celestial Suffering after all my warnings!? Tell Uncle Fu to get him back quickly. Make sure he doesn’t cause any trouble outside.”

 

He was helpless while feeling mad at his rebellious Son. Chu Xiao was the youngest Son of the two of them. Considering his current cultivation, it was difficult for him to have any children. The birth of Chu Xiao came as a surprise.

 

When he found out that Wang Xuexin was pregnant back then, he was surprised. Then, he used many ways to make sure that Chu Xiao would be successfully born. Although there were challenges along the way, things went smoothly in the end.

 

He was Ancestor-level figure, and since he had a Son at such an age, he would naturally dote on him. In fact, everyone in the Land of Celestial Suffering treated Chu Xiao like their greatest treasure. Everyone in the Chu Family took great care of him. They would give him whatever he wanted. Regardless of what demands he came up with, they would do their best to satisfy his desires.

 

Naturally, Chu Gucheng and Wang Xuexin loved their youngest Son very much.

 

Unfortunately, Chu Xiao didn’t inherit his Father’s Talent. His Talent for cultivation was ordinary. He only managed to attain his current cultivation with the help of many rare treasures.

 

Usually, he was surrounded by people who buttered him up. As a result, he became haughty and self-indulgent. He would always oppress men and women from nearby places.

 

Naturally, those in the Primary Hope Civilisation called him a good-for-nothing in secret.
