It was said that the five rivers appeared when the world was still in its most primitive state, even before the distinct boundaries between Heaven and Earth were formed. They represented everything that would occur in the future, as well as the starting and ending points of both the tangible and intangible.

 

Flowing through the entire process from start to finish, the Five Rivers of Heavens were incomparably mysterious and ethereal. The most well-known river was the River of Destiny, which controlled the evolution and destiny of every single living creature and substance in the world. It represented the infinite changes and developments in the world, so it was extremely unpredictable.

 

On the other hand, the River of Destruction, also known as the River of Fatality, represented the death and the destruction of all substances in the world.

 

The life of every single living creature was reflected in the River of Destruction. Everywhere the River of Destruction flowed, death and destruction followed. At the same time, it was also an indication that the object in question had reached the end of its lifespan.

 

These reasons made it impossible for any living creature to have seen the River of Destruction, much less look at the River of Destruction directly. After all, any substance or existence would be destroyed when reflected and touched by the traces of the River of Destruction. What more a living creature?

 

[How could the Entanglement Immortal Might that I created be related to the River of Destruction? Or, is Chan Hongyi related to the River of Destruction? Is she actually behind the Entanglement Immortal Might cultivated by the Zi Family?] Gu Changge shook his head, thinking that the possibility was very unlikely.

 

Chan Hongyi was not a Variable after all.

 

The anomaly of the falling Demonic Stars and the bloodstained sky that appeared when she was born was actually something he arranged with Gu Qingyi after some discussion.

 

If she had any other tricks up her sleeve, they would not have escaped his attention. The only possibility was that the River of Destruction penetrated the entire concept of Spacetime. There was no concept of time. Everything was the same, whether it was the past or the future.

 

[For me, it is impossible for the River of Destruction to reflect my image. In that case, could the River of Destruction have reflected Chan Hongyi’s image of the future? Perhaps, her future self had affected the past?] He speculated.

 

If that was the case, then he had seriously underestimated the impact of his existence on the Prosperous Dao True World and the people around him. For example, Chan Hongyi and the others gained the aura of a Variable after they became connected to him.

 

At this rate, many things would probably exceed his expectations and control. It was not just Chan Hongyi. The fate and variability of Gu Xianer, Yue Mingkong, and Su Qingge were also bound to experience unpredictable changes in the future.

 

Although these changes would be beneficial for them, he did not wish for such a situation to occur. That was because the situation would be beyond his control. It was a feeling he did not like.

 

[Radiating from the future to the past, the scope of influence even extended to the River of Time of the Primary Hope Civilisation. With Chan Hongyi’s original qualifications, it would not have been hard for her to reach the Dao Realm. But it would have been difficult for her to reach further. To think she managed to obtain such an opportunity without my knowledge…]

 

[If this keeps up, there is a high likelihood that my plans would be flawed or exposed early. It might even fail…”]

 

His gaze suddenly became dark.

 

The Heavenly Dao controlled all forms of Spacetime, existences, power, karma, Principles, fate, the inconceivable, and the concepts. Even the birth of Variables could only temporarily escape the control of the Heavenly Dao. If the Heavenly Dao truly wanted to investigate and regain control over everything, Variables would not be able to escape the Heavenly Dao’s grasp.

 

To the sentient beings across billions of universes and endless Spacetime, the three Source True Ancestors were existences who transcended the Heavenly Dao. In other words, it could be said that each Source True Ancestor stood above the Heavenly Dao. They could perfectly sever the authority of the Heavenly Dao without any effort. Moreover, there was nothing they did not know or anybody in the world who could compare with them.

 

In their presence, the Great Dao would evaporate into nothing at their will. Even the so-called karma, Heavenly Dao, and destiny were nothing but bubbles that would pop at the slightest touch. After all, they were the culmination of all concepts and substances in the world. It was theoretically impossible for any other existence to stand above them.

 

Be that as it may, Gu Changge knew that the so-called ‘end’ was actually just much further than their current level of existence. In short, they would need to break the limitations and shackles of the box known as the ‘Source True Ancestors’.

 

For the Source True Ancestors, Variables had the power to truly threaten them. That was the most important reason why Gu Changge could successfully implement his plan.

 

Otherwise, the Source True Ancestors would have easily broken the tables as soon as they sensed the slightest threat to themselves.

 

That was right. They would rather break the tables instead of reshuffling the cards. If they no longer wished to play, they would simply destroy the table and start over at any given moment.

 

At present, Gu Changge’s presence even affected the people surrounding him. Contaminated by the aura of a Variable, their futures became unpredictable and unforeseeable. That was enough to explain the problem surrounding him.

 

[It seems that I will have to speed up my plans. If the peace is broken before a chance for an absolute kill comes, then everything will have been for nought.] Gu Changge gathered his thoughts and decided to speed up his plans.

 

The matter regarding Chan Hongyi was just a small piece of the overall puzzle. What worried him the most was that these incidents would continue to expand and multiply. These quantitative changes would eventually lead to qualitative changes. In the end, they would become uncontrollable.

 

“The Entanglement Immortal Might is divided into the source technique and the derivative technique. Unfortunately, the method passed down in the Zi Family is the derivative technique. The true source technique would not deplete your potential or damage your future blessings.”

 

“I know that you are scheming to obtain Chu Gucheng’s Dao Fruit and blessings because you fear that you will follow in the footsteps of your predecessors and suffer a tragic death one day. But I can tell you right now that even if you seized Chu Gucheng’s blessings and Dao Fruit, they will not replenish the immense pit caused by cultivating the Entanglement Immortal Might. Everything you have cultivated will only become the strength of others one day.” After some time, Gu Changge glanced at Zi Wanhe and calmly stated.

 

Zi Wanhe was not a stupid man, so he immediately caught onto the hidden meaning behind Gu Changge’s words. Although he did not know how Gu Changge knew about the Entanglement Immortal Might, it was obvious to him that Gu Changge had the means to control his life and death.

 

In that case, Gu Changge would surely have the means to help him solve the root of his troubles too.

 

He hurriedly answered, “Please help me, Young Master Gu. If you need anything from me, you can just tell me. I will go through Hell and back without hesitation.”

 

“You’re being too serious, Sect Master Zi. I did not tell you this to scare you. But I do indeed happen to have a solution at hand.” Gu Changge smiled lightly but did not say too much. With a casual wave of his hand, a glowing jade tablet flew out of his sleeve and came to float in front of Zi Wanhe.

 

As the creator of the Entanglement Immortal Might, he naturally could determine Zi Wanhe’s fate at will.

 

Moreover, Zi Wanhe was an Ancestral Dao Realm expert who was in his Eighth Decay. His cultivation was higher than Chu Gucheng and the others. Combined with the fact that he was the Sect Master of Purple Sky Mountain, he wielded terrifying influence and power. Therefore, his worth was much greater than Jing Tianyuan of the Jing Family.

 

“Thank you, Young Master Gu.”

 

Zi Wanhe stared intently at the jade tablet in front of him. He did not believe that Gu Changge would trick or deceive him at this time.

 

Not only did Gu Changge hail from a mysterious background, but the other party also possessed unfathomable abilities and unimaginable strength. Besides, there was honestly no reason to deceive him now that things had come to this point.

 

“The birthday feast for the Land of Celestial Suffering’s King, Chu Gucheng, will occur in a few days’ time. Will you be participating in the celebration, Young Master Gu?”

 

Zi Wanhe carefully kept the jade tablet, and his emotions gradually returned to normal. As a charming socialite, he was naturally a tactful man. He also vaguely guessed that Gu Changge had plans for the Land of Celestial Suffering, so he decided to question the other party directly.

 

“Since it is a birthday feast for such a great figure, it will surely be lively. Why wouldn’t I go and join in the fun?” Gu Changge continued to smile slightly.

 

Zi Wanhe’s eyes flickered at those words. Then, he responded with a smile. “That’s good. I happen to have a huge present that I wish to personally give to Chu Gucheng. If you’re there, you should also have a look at the gift.”

 

He initially had no interest in Chu Gucheng’s birthday celebration, and he had no intention of attending the event either. However, Gu Changge had already spoken. How could he not go?

 

Not only would he go to the event, but he would also prepare a huge surprise for Chu Gucheng.

 

The two of them chatted for a little longer before Gu Changge left the meeting hall.

 

After leaving the meeting hall, the officials of Purple Sky Mountain had not gone very far. They watched from the nearby mountains, wondering what Gu Changge had discussed with Zi Wanhe.

 

Similarly, Zi Yan waited nearby with Ye Suyi. The White Bone Ancestor King and Jing Tianyuan stood together with them.

 

Upon seeing Gu Changge drawing closer, Ye Suyi and the others hurriedly went to greet him.

 

Zi Yunchuan, who was watching from a distance, hesitated for a moment. In the end, he gritted his teeth and walked towards them. He smiled and waved at them before he even came close.

 

When Gu Changge noticed the other party, he simply nodded slightly in acknowledgement. That was enough to be considered a greeting.

 

Now that the matter had been resolved, he planned to leave Purple Sky Mountain immediately.

 

Zi Yunchuan was a perceptive man, so he knew the huge difference between their statuses. After greeting Gu Changge, he did not dare to delay the other party too much.

 

“If you have time in the future, we should share a drink again, Senior Brother Gu. By the way, Zi Susu was taken away by the Law Enforcement earlier on the charge of harming a fellow Family member.” Knowing the grudge between Ye Suyi and Zi Susu, he swept a glance at Ye Suyi standing beside Gu Changge and reported softly during his greeting.

 

The rules of the Purple Sky Mountain were strict. Once such a crime was confirmed, the convicted would undoubtedly suffer a tragic ending. Furthermore, the order to punish Zi Susu was specifically issued by the high-ranking officials of Purple Sky Mountain out of their respect for Gu Changge.

 

In the first place, the grudge between Ye Suyi and Zi Susu could not be hidden from them.
