Boom!

When Gu Qingyan rushed forward and saw Gu Chen in such a state, her delicate figure trembled as if struck by supre thunder.

“Impossible, impossible! Brother, you were unmatched through the ages, standing atop the pinnacle—why would you fall? I don’t believe it!”

Gu Qingyan bit her silver teeth tightly. She stretched out her jade-like hand, following the trajectory of the unseen Dao, her hands ceaselessly moving in an attempt to reshape the past.

Boom!

The Great Chaos World trembled, collapsing even faster now. Fragnts of ti and laws danced wildly as endless blood-red lightning erged and struck Gu Qingyan, causing her delicate figure to shudder and a streak of fresh blood to drip from the corner of her mouth.

“Empress!”

Before long, Bi Yu and the others arrived at the scene. Seeing this mont, they were instantly aghast.

“The ruler of the Imperial Court has really fallen.” Pei Yi frowned. He could see that although Gu Chen’s physical body remained, his soul and vitality had completely extinguished—even his origin had vanished.

Even soone unmatched throughout eternity, the strongest across recorded eras, could not survive such an end.

“Where has the World Origin gone?” Pei Yi imdiately began searching and, while everyone was distracted, seized a broken strand of Gu Chen’s aura and secretly stowed it away.

“The ruler of the Imperial Court has fallen.” At this mont, Bi Yu and the others also ca to this realization, their expressions extrely grim.

Emperor Xia was equally shaken. He couldn’t fathom how Gu Chen—soone who had overco countless tribulations in his youth—could fall now.

“Empress!”

Seeing Gu Qingyan adamantly attempting to reshape, even when struck repeatedly by blood-red lightning, Bi Yu grew anxious and rushed forward to stop her.

Wu Tian, observing this, chose to assist Bi Yu.

“Empress, stop! If you continue like this, you’ll die!” Bi Yu shouted.

But Gu Qingyan paid no heed, fresh blood cascading from her crystalline lips. Even as soone at the supre realm, she couldn’t deduce even a trace related to Gu Chen.

The blood-red lightning was overwhelmingly powerful, akin to divine punishnt. Even at her supre realm, she couldn’t endure much longer.

“Empress, you cannot die! The heavens, myriad worlds, and the Imperial Court still need you!” In re monts, both Bi Yu and Wu Tian were also struck by the lightning, leaving them drenched in blood.

Seeing that Gu Qingyan remained unresponsive, Bi Yu shouted desperately.

Emperor Xia sighed deeply from the sidelines, stepping in to help shield her.

Beyond him, even the newly ascended supre of Taoxu Road joined in.

Only Pei Yi and the reclusive supre of an ancient Dao lineage, Qi Ling, remained silently watching from a distance.

Both were searching for the whereabouts of the World Origin.

Eventually, under Bi Yu’s agonized shouts, Gu Qingyan regained clarity. She looked at Gu Chen, lifeless before her, and a bleak smile graced her lips.

Her elder brother was dead—what aning was left in all of this?

Bi Yu had never seen Gu Qingyan like this before. All along, the Empress had exuded strength and aloofness, never showing such vulnerability.

“Empress…” he murmured instinctively.

At that mont, a figure appeared, reaching out to touch Gu Chen’s body.

“What are you doing?” Seeing this, Bi Yu’s expression turned frosty, and he raised his hand to block.

The one making the move was Pei Yi. Seeing Bi Yu obstruct him, Pei Yi frowned slightly and struck—a dazzling blow brimming with celestial light, supre patterns flowing, and even an immortal figure manifesting behind him.

Human Immortal Seal!

This was the unparalleled technique of the immortal Dao lineage, the Man Immortal Palace—an imasurably powerful divine art!

Boom!

Bi Yu countered, supre Dao laws clashing. Due to injuries from the earlier blood-red lightning, he struggled to compete and began to falter.

“Pei Yi, are you rebelling?!”

At this mont, Wu Tian, his golden hair shimring, let out a cold shout, joining the fray and releasing endless radiance as though he were a blazing sun.

“You’re going too far!”

Even Emperor Xia frowned and made his move—ancestral dragon roars echoing, imperial dragon energy surging, all directed at Bi Yu.

Seeing this, Bi Yu knew he couldn’t match the combined strength of these supre beings, even in their injured state. He could only retreat.

Though Gu Chen had fallen, his remains—once unmatched across eternity—held unparalleled significance. To Bi Yu, they were still invaluable.

Thus, he declared, “Since the ruler of the Imperial Court has fallen and the Epoch Calamity is imminent, shouldn’t we seize this opportunity to pave the way for the next unparalleled sovereign to arise and face the calamity?”

Bi Yu sneered coldly. “Oh? So that’s your real motive!”

“Pei Yi, you truly harbor a ravenous ambition!” Wu Tian sharply rebuked.

Emperor Xia frowned—it hadn’t even been long since Gu Chen’s death, yet chaos already threatened the Imperial Court?

Pei Yi wore a cold expression. “Do you think this is solely for myself? This is for the myriad worlds!”

“Utter nonsense!” Bi Yu and Wu Tian outright dismissed the claim.

Pei Yi snorted disdainfully. “Short-sighted fools. With the ruler of the Imperial Court gone, if an equivalent supre cannot arise, then twelve thousand years from now, when the progenitor of the Shadow World attacks, how will the myriad worlds stand in resistance?”

Upon hearing this, Bi Yu, Wu Tian, and the others furrowed their brows.

Qi Ling stepped forward now, standing by Pei Yi’s side, saying, “I believe Pei Yi’s argunt is reasonable. At a ti like this, we must use extraordinary asures—leveraging the ruler’s remains could allow us to ascend further.”

“The deceased should be respected, especially when it’s the ruler of the Imperial Court!” Bi Yu and Wu Tian knew exactly what Pei Yi and Qi Ling wanted to do and resolutely stood against it.
