“Elder Gu, let me first take you to find a lodging place, then afterwards I shall report to the Deputy Headmaster and the others.”

 

“Having an Immortal King Realm Elder join us, the Deputy Headmaster and others will surely be delighted.”

 

Zhou Yuanyi spoke whilst leading Gu Changge through the mountain gates, taking him deeper into the Imperial Celestial Academy.

 

Along the way, many Disciples curiously looked over, with more attention focused on Gu Changge.

 

They naturally knew Zhou Yuanyi’s position, which made them even more curious—could Gu Changge be a new Disciple brought back by Executive Zhou?

 

After all, from this unfamiliar young face, he hardly seemed to be a Disciple of the Imperial Celestial Academy.

 

Many disciples were speculating about Gu Changge’s identity, given that he was being led in this manner by Executive Zhou.

 

This at least indicated his talent was recognised by Executive Zhou, allowing him to bypass the academy entrance examination and be accepted as an exception.

 

During the journey, some Disciples familiar with Zhou Yuanyi boldly approached to enquire. Zhou Yuanyi made no effort to conceal, cheerfully explaining Gu Changge’s identity.

 

Upon hearing the explanation, the gathered Disciples were stunned, never having imagined that this particularly young-looking white-robed gentleman would actually be a new Elder of the Imperial Celestial Academy.

 

From appearance alone, Gu Changge seemed even younger than them.

 

“During this recent journey, Elder Gu’s assistance was crucial. Without his intervention, I would not have returned alive. So, while Elder Gu may appear young, he is actually a peerless Immortal King with unfathomable cultivation. Should you encounter Elder Gu in future and receive his guidance, it would be your great fortune.” Zhou Yuanyi spoke with a smile on his face.

 

These words astonished the Disciples even more, particularly the female Disciples, whose eyes sparkled with unusual brilliance.

 

A handsome young Elder, as if stepping out of a painting. His future achievements would surely be limitless. Establishing early connections with him would naturally offer infinite benefits.

 

However, Gu Changge clearly had no intention of acknowledging them. Wearing a faint, gentle smile, he spoke little, following behind Zhou Yuanyi to find a mountain peak called Azure Falling Peak as his current residence.

 

Subsequently, news of a new Elder Gu joining the Imperial Celestial Academy quickly spread throughout the vicinity.

 

This caused quite a stir amongst the Disciples.

 

Many Disciples who had personally witnessed Gu Changge that day found it remarkable, feeling this Elder appeared extraordinarily young, with absolutely terrifying talent.

 

Zhou Yuanyi handled matters quite properly, that very day arranging for the Deputy Headmaster  and other Elders to confirm Gu Changge’s position.

 

Naturally, no complications arose during this process.

 

While the Imperial Celestial Academy’s Deputy Headmaster  was a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, his abilities were insufficient to discern Gu Changge’s true background.

 

He merely sensed that Gu Changge’s strength probably exceeded what Zhou Yuanyi had described, and that he was considerably younger than the typical Immortal King.

 

Consequently, he took the matter seriously, believing Gu Changge’s cultivation might advance further in future, possibly achieving the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm.

 

Naturally, with the Imperial Celestial Academy backed by the Imperial Celestial Palace, he had no concerns about admitting individuals with ulterior motives.

 

Thus, Gu Changge naturally became the Master of Azure Falling Peak.

 

Simultaneously, he became an Elder of the Tai Yuan Ancient Territory’s Imperial Celestial Academy, with status equivalent to other Elders, enjoying the same benefits.

 

Daily obligations and requirements were minimal—he could freely select Disciples or focus on cultivation without worldly concerns.

 

However, during crises of the Imperial Celestial Academy, he was obligated to assist in defending the academy.

 

The constraints were remarkably lenient.

 

Naturally, Azure Falling Peak had several thousand servant Disciples responsible for daily administration, more than sufficient for various duties.

 

Whether to teach or accept Disciples remained entirely at each Elder’s discretion.

 

Training powerful disciples naturally resulted in greater cultivation resources—this point required no explanation.

 

Having temporarily settled at the Imperial Celestial Academy, Gu Changge had no intention of accepting Disciples.

 

His purpose was locating individuals within the Imperial Celestial Palace connected to the original sealing of the Heavenly Abyss (Six Directions Heavenly Abyss Armour).

 

His Imperial Celestial Academy Elder status would facilitate his subsequent plans.

 

Another reason existed as well.

 

Gu Changge was manipulating the entire Primary Hope Civilisation from the shadows.

 

The various Forces of Primary Hope Civilisation would soon descend into a period of turmoil and chaos.

 

Positioning himself at the Imperial Celestial Palace allowed better control over the situation, enabling strategic manoeuvres.

 

Currently, outside Primary Hope Civilisation, events were unfolding exactly as Gu Changge anticipated—the Beast Ancestor’s Son’s demise had caused significant upheaval. Numerous Forces from the Bright Light Temple, Tathagata Buddha Realm, and others were speculating about the perpetrator.

 

Daily discussions amongst Disciples centred on concerns that warfare might reach Tai Yuan Ancient Territory.

 

Outside Azure Falling Peak, many young female Disciples appeared during this period, seeking to be Gu Changge’s personal Disciple.

 

However, Gu Changge paid them no attention, maintaining an appearance of cultivation retreat whilst ignoring external matters.

 

This left many Disciples disappointed.

 

From Executive Zhou Yuanyi, numerous Imperial Celestial Academy Disciples knew of Gu Changge’s formidable strength and the likelihood of his advancing to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm or even Immortal Emperor Realm in the future.

 

Yet such a handsome, promising young Elder accepted no personal Disciple…

 

This left many Imperial Celestial Academy Disciples increasingly restless.

 

Whilst residing at Azure Falling Peak, Gu Changge remained attentive to external developments.

 

Both the appearance of the Sun Shooting Bow and the demise of the Beast Court’s Golden Crow Ninth Crown Prince fell within his expectations and schemes.

 

Both the Land of Celestial Suffering and Beast Court intended to withdraw from worldly affairs to avoid the upcoming calamity. However, Gu Changge would certainly prevent their desires from materialising. The more chaotic Primary Hope Civilisation became, the more advantageous for him.

 

The Beast Court and the Land of Celestial Suffering would inevitably engage in a major war, subsequently dragging other Forces into the conflict.

 

Thus, the waters would become sufficiently murky.

 

…

 

“Which Forces benefits most from Primary Hope Civilisation’s chaotic state?” Within Purple Sky Mountain. The current Master of Purple Sky Mountain pondered, inevitably considering the Land of Celestial Suffering.

 

Particularly during recent times, the Land of Celestial Suffering had announced that remnants of the Black Disaster were resurfacing, requesting assistance from various Forces. Yet the Land of Celestial Suffering itself remained passive, taking no responsive actions.

 

If Primary Hope Civilisation descended into chaos, various Forces might direct their attention towards each other, neglecting the Land of Celestial Suffering.

 

Similar scenarios were unfolding across other regions and universes within Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

The Beast Ancestor’s fury could not be easily appeased.

 

Should the Beast Ancestor strike in anger, he could potentially exterminate countless Star Territories, destroying any Forces’ territory.

 

Following the Beast Ancestor’s orders, countless Beasts were mobilised, continuously investigating Di Wen’s whereabouts. They quickly determined his place of death was outside Endless Beasts Territory’s borders, within the relatively nearby Land of Celestial Suffering.

 

This news immediately shocked countless. The Demon Sovereigns and Demon Generals investigating Di Wen’s tracks emanated overwhelming killing intent.

 

“The Land of Celestial Suffering dares cause my Brother’s death! Today, either you or I shall perish!” The Beast Court’s Seventh Prince, Di Kun, could barely concealed his murderous intent. He was furious beyond measure.

 

Previously, he had maintained the closest relationship with his Ninth Brother. Now investigating the cause of death, he remained the most active.

 

Immediately, in his fury, he led millions of soldiers and generals, vast and overwhelming, blotting out the sky. Endless Beastial Energy penetrated multiple universes, advancing towards the Land of Celestial Suffering.

 

Beastial Energy pierced Heaven, accompanied by flowing scales and feathers, surging mist. Many colossal, ancient Beasts were revealed—eyes alone resembled blood lakes, intimidating all hearts.

 

Such terrifying manifestations could frighten ordinary cultivators into losing their Souls.
