Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree
Chapter 462 - 433: Who Told You This Emperor Lacks the Strength to Subdue the Taiyuan Realm?
"It is said that the Celestial Secret Pavilion’s art of deduction has reached mastery. In that case, you should be aware of how many Reincarnated Mahayana exist in the Taiyuan Realm!"
Gu Qingyang asked calmly.
Even though his Essence was currently breaking through, with the power of his Dharma Body, he considered Daoist Tianji in front of him insignificant.
The reason was simple.
The opponent was currently suppressed by the Heavenly Dao Domain, and his strength had fallen to the ninth stage.
As long as Gu Qingyang was willing, he could crush him with one hand.
The reason for sparing him.
Was entirely due to Master Celestial Secret’s abilities.
After all.
Gu Qingyang now regarded the Taiyuan Realm as a future member of the Cyan Yang Divine Court; ordinary cultivators he could disregard, but such ninth-stage powerhouses were extremely rare.
To cultivate any ninth-stager requires a long time and a tremendous price.
If all the ninth-stage powerhouses in Taiyuan Realm could be subdued, it would undoubtedly be the best outcome.
"Who exactly are you!"
Faced with Gu Qingyang’s inquiry, Master Celestial Secret’s gloomy face still had traces of shock.
As Gu Qingyang had said, the Celestial Secret Pavilion excelled at deduction. Even in front of a Mahayana stage cultivator, it could discern some clues and even calculate certain things from the opponent’s karma.
But.
When Tianji first looked at Gu Qingyang standing there, it was like staring directly into an abyss. The vast and profound power instilled a fear in him that came from his core.
Such an existence.
Gave Master Celestial Secret his first feeling of what was truly unfathomable.
Gu Qingyang said, "I am naturally the Master of this Cyan Yang Divine Court. Now, it’s only a matter of time before your Taiyuan Realm falls. If you are willing to submit to the Cyan Yang Divine Court, then your Celestial Secret Pavilion can preserve its legacy.
Otherwise, when the Taiyuan Realm is defeated and my Cyan Yang Divine Court rules the world, your Celestial Secret Pavilion will surely be destroyed!"
Submit! 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Master Celestial Secret’s eyes turned cold, and he sneered, "Why bother with such words? In the battle between two realms, the Heavenly Dao invades and plunders. Once our Taiyuan Realm’s Heavenly Dao is destroyed by your Immortal Extinction Realm’s Heavenly Dao, how can we Taiyuan beings survive?
Though such matters are secrets, they are no secret to me.
Unless you have the power to allow me to transcend the Taiyuan Realm, but if you had such power, you would have acted to suppress everything long ago. Why let the situation develop to such an extent?"
Regarding Gu Qingyang’s words, Master Celestial Secret did not believe a single word.
The so-called submission for survival was nothing but a joke.
He might just want to deceive him, making him betray Taiyuan Realm at a critical moment to aid the Cyan Yang Realm in hastening the assimilation of the Taiyuan Realm.
When the Taiyuan Realm’s Heavenly Dao truly falls, he, Master Celestial Secret, would also become a discarded pawn, ultimately perishing in the demise of Heaven and Earth.
Dead end either way.
How could Master Celestial Secret act as the opponent wished?
"Who said that in a war between two realms, one world must be destroyed?"
Gu Qingyang glanced at him with a hint of derision, as if mocking his ignorance.
Seeing this.
Master Celestial Secret’s face flushed instantly.
Since when.
Had he, the dignified Pavilion Master of the Celestial Secret Pavilion, been treated with such expression?
Just as Master Celestial Secret was about to speak, Gu Qingyang’s voice came first.
"The war between the Two Realms involves not only destruction but also fusion. Even if the Cyan Yang Realm defeats the Taiyuan Realm’s Heavenly Dao, it will not destroy the Taiyuan Realm. On the contrary, it will merge with the Taiyuan Realm, making both realms officially one.
Then, not only will the cultivators of the Cyan Yang Realm benefit, so too will the cultivators of your Taiyuan Realm!"
Gu Qingyang’s voice was indifferent.
Otherworldly wars naturally prioritize plunder.
After all, the instinct of the Heavenly Dao is to plunder.
Plunder the Heaven and Earth Origin of other realms to elevate itself.
Such an approach.
Is indeed the most efficient, yet also damages others while benefiting oneself.
Conversely.
The fusion of two worlds poses no problem for the beings of both realms, but this process is cumbersome and is naturally rejected by the Heavenly Dao.
Hearing this.
Master Celestial Secret shook his head, "When did the interference of the Heavenly Dao become a matter for cultivators to decide..."
"Just because you can’t interfere doesn’t mean I can’t!"
At this point, a glorious heavenly might erupted from Gu Qingyang, and the Dao Rules of Heaven and Earth manifested above the Kunlun Divine Realm.
Endless Rule Power descended, highlighting Gu Qingyang as an unparalleled Divine, and the oppression stemming from the hierarchy of life made Master Celestial Secret’s expression change once more.
"To you, the Heavenly Dao is lofty and untouchable. To me, I am the Heavenly Dao!"
Gu Qingyang’s calm voice came through, containing the oppressive might of the profound principles of Heaven and Earth, instilling in Master Celestial Secret an impulse to submit.
At this moment.
The Pavilion Master of the Celestial Secret Pavilion could no longer maintain his composure.
His gaze upon Gu Qingyang was filled with awe, as well as subtle reverence.
"Body and Dao Integration... Someone can truly integrate with the Dao, no wonder... No wonder during the war between the Two Realms, the Heavenly Dao still had the power to suppress me.
So it is... So it is..."
Master Celestial Secret murmured, repeatedly uttering the words "So it is."
Body and Dao Integration!
This was something the Celestial Secret Pavilion had seen in some ancient texts, but never had there been anyone who could truly achieve Body and Dao Integration.
All along.
Master Celestial Secret thought the ancient text’s records were merely the imagination of some cultivator, and that Body and Dao Integration did not exist.
After all—
The Heavenly Dao is supreme.
Who could integrate with the Dao?
But now, the appearance of Gu Qingyang directly broke all of Master Celestial Secret’s perceptions.
So.
Body and Dao Integration truly exist.
There are indeed such terrifying powerhouses capable of merging with the Heavenly Dao, replacing the original Heavenly Dao to become the new Heavenly Dao of a world.
The notion that the Heavenly Dao cannot suppress external cultivators during the Two Realms’ war was overturned, and everything became logical now.
After all.
The means of a Harmonizer are mysterious and unpredictable; it’s possible they can indeed achieve such extent.
Ultimately.
The Gu Qingyang before him was the first Harmonizer Master Celestial Secret had ever seen.
So what exactly are the means of a Harmonizer? Master Celestial Secret also did not understand.
For a moment.
Gu Qingyang became increasingly unfathomable in Master Celestial Secret’s eyes, and the oppressive power of heavenly might and Rule Power caused subtle changes within his heart.
If what the other said was true, then the war in the Taiyuan Realm might not be a death sentence.
Just as Master Celestial Secret was mulling over this, Gu Qingyang’s voice came through again.
"Moreover!"
"Who told you that I have no means to suppress the Taiyuan Realm!"
As the words fell, a terrifying power burst from the Divine Tree of the Heavenly Dao and filled the entire Kunlun Divine Realm with overwhelming pressure.
Before this terrifying oppressive force, Master Celestial Secret’s expression turned to one of utter shock, as his skin could not withstand the power and began to crack inch by inch.
