"The National Defense Array, Celestial Gathering Star Array has been activated!?"
A Peak Saint looked at the ascending brilliance from the central spire with slightly trembling lips, "What on earth happened!? Are the Devils... about to launch a full-scale invasion?"
"During this ti, first we had the Ancient True Immortal slaying eleven Demon Emperors, slaying the Xuan Yang Demon God, followed by a full mobilization from top to bottom of the Holy Dynasty! It seems they’re preparing for a massive counterattack against the Devils, and now... is the war finally about to begin?"
A certain City Lord looked up at the sky do with worry on his face.
"The Celestial Gathering Star Array has started, so our Human Clan’s counterattack is finally about to comnce? Hahaha, I’ve been waiting for this day for a full sixteen years!"
A white-haired but youthful Martial Saint laughed loudly, "Bring my war blade, dress in my armor, I can still battle the Devils for three hundred rounds!"
...
The entire Holy Dynasty was shaken incessantly by the activation of the National Defense Array, Celestial Gathering Star Array.
The Devils’ side also received this news at the first opportunity.
After all, traitors like Wu Tianya, though few, were not uncommon in the Human Clan.
Especially in recent tis, when Gu Jinlai purged the cities, severely infringing upon their interests, so officials who were originally powerful were chased from their thrones of authority, so they decided to go all out, gather their resources, and defect to the Devil’s side.
One has to be ruthless to reach high positions.
With morality eroded and lower limits crossed, the higher they climb, such people have no loyalty, benevolence, or righteousness, and even scoff at those who adhere to integrity and discipline, considering them as fools.
So, their betrayal of the Human Clan was also without hesitation.
In such a situation, lots of information quickly gathered in the hands of Star Trace Demon God and Demon God Long Xiao.
...
"The Human Clan’s True Immortal called Gu Jinlai is being hunted by a mysterious entity!? Suspected to be one of our Spirit Venerables?"
Star Trace Demon God said with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Though he was keen to ask Demon Lord Cangming for guidance, believing that they could deal the cultivators a fatal blow in the form of Demon Spirits, his request was rejected by the Demon Lord.
So, from where did this Spirit Venerable co?
And...
Its shadow is enormous, stretching across a kiloter!? Surely, not even a Spirit Venerable could be this powerful?
This is a being comparable to a Demon Lord!
And not just any Demon Lord, but one of the most pri among them!
"Has one of the Demon Lords descended? But... that’s impossible! The largest rift from our world to this world is the Blood Moat Demon Abyss, and even through there, no Demon Lord can descend!" said Demon God Long Xiao.
"Regardless, that Human Clan’s True Immortal is truly in trouble, otherwise, they wouldn’t activate the Celestial Gathering Star Array to go to his aid, expending the essence they’ve accumulated over years!"
Star Trace Demon God said, "As long as the consumption lasts longer, by the ti of the final battle, they won’t be able to ignite the full potential of their Spirit chanism to stimulate that terrifying creature. In this domain, there will be no more forces for us to fear."
A glint of light passed through the eyes of the Demon God, "So, we must bring our elite to follow and wait for an opportunity, once the conditions allow it, whether it is to assist that powerful entity from who-knows-where to kill that Human Clan True Immortal, or to restrain the power of the Celestial Gathering Star Array to deplete the Human Clan’s essence, we must not hesitate to strike."
Demon God Long Xiao nodded his head.
After a mont, as if he thought of sothing, he suddenly said, "Then, shall we awaken the Netherworld God?"
"Netherworld God..."
Nether implies Cangming.
That was a Divine Thought projection left outside the Holy Dynasty by Demon Lord Cangming.
Although it was just a projection, but...
Back then, a single arm of the Demon Lord could transform into the "Great Dao" and crush the Holy Land’s final resistance, and although this is only a projection, once activated, it is still enough to slay a True Immortal.
"It’s not yet ti for the final battle, delaying even one day is good," said Star Trace Demon God, "Ti is on our side."
Demon God Long Xiao nodded again.
Imdiately, the two Demon Gods selected so powerful Demon Emperors, wrapped in Demon Fla, and headed straight to the battlefield of the Demon Realm Rift ntioned in the Humans’ ssage.
...
Holy Dynasty’s Void Immortals and Devils, because of the shadow that swept across the sky, mobilized simultaneously, creating a great stir.
And at Mountain Sword Sect, when Bai Yuxin and Bai Muling, who had set up the summoning Array, saw the fleeting shadow at the edge of the sky, the terrifying presence that made people shudder, and the greatness beyond imagination, they couldn’t help but cheer.
"He has co! He has arrived!"
Bai Yuxin’s eyes were filled with respect, fear, and fanaticism as she suddenly raised her hands high, looking at the rapidly passing shadow in the sky, as if worshipping the most sacred deity in her heart, "Great Aries Star Lord His Majesty!"
Not far from her, Yang Kaishan also felt his soul tremble as the terrifying being passed by.
However, more than anything, he was pleased that there was finally a powerful being that could control Gu Jinlai.
When he heard Bai Yuxin’s uncontrollable cheering, he was slightly startled.
"The Creator!?"
The creature that ruled the world a thousand years ago, turning the entire Demon Realm into its hunting ground—the Creator!?
These people...
They actually summoned such a monster!?
His mind was flooded with mories of the Creator’s persecution of cultivators a thousand years ago, and the impact it had on the whole world...
But his concerns lasted only for a mont before he cast them into the clouds.
What does it matter if the Creator has descended!?
After all, it’s Gu Jinlai that he’s after.
All he knew was that Gu Jinlai’s existence had violated him and the interests of the people behind him, the Liu Family, so he should die.
As for whether what he was doing was just, that was not sothing he needed to consider.
Children talk about right and wrong; Yang Kaishan rose to beco the Sect Leader of the Mountain Sword Sect precisely because he was unscrupulous.
"Oh mighty creator who ruled the world a thousand years ago! Now let’s see if Gu Jinlai dares to make enemies with us all. This ti, he is surely dood!"
...
"Boom!"
Thunder Breaking the Sky!
Gu Jinlai was not holding back at all. He exerted his full power to deploy the Thunder Light Dragon Transformation, each dash covering dozens of miles.
In the short ti it took to sense the attention of the Aries Star Lord and for the Aries Star Lord to seemingly finally cross the barrier between the real world and the True Spirit Realm—less than ten breaths—Gu had already traveled over a thousand miles.
"This ti, you won’t escape."
The voice of the Aries Star Lord, or rather, Spiritual Power, clearly echoed in Gu Jinlai’s mind.
This was a form of communication conducted through the perception of Spiritual Power.
Any creature, as long as it possessed Spiritual Power, could communicate and exchange thoughts in this way.
This was one of the little tricks that Gu Jinlai saw in the Aries Star Lord’s mory.
"Escape?"
Gu Jinlai’s expression didn’t change much.
But his True Spirit was swiftly activating, forming layer upon layer of barriers, as if putting on a sturdy armor for the most core part of him—his Soul.
Simultaneously, he was also unleashing his full power, closing the distance between himself and the Demon Realm Rift.
The creator was almost impossible to kill.
However, he could exploit the characteristic distance between the Demon Realm and the True Spirit Realm to inflict heavy damage on the Aries Star Lord and even shatter the portion of the Aries Star Lord’s mory that belonged to "Him."
Without the Aries Star Lord’s mory, "He" was like a beast deprived of wisdom—capturing "Him" would no longer be difficult.
Furthermore, being in the Demon Realm, a Grand Sky Lord like himself would attract far less hatred than a creator. If things went smoothly, without him lifting a finger, a whole wave of relentless Spirit Venerables could deplete a substantial amount of power from the Aries Star Lord.
"rely preparing a large amount of Qingguang for recovery and choosing the Demon Realm as the battlefield is not enough! To be safe..."
Gu Jinlai focused a sliver of Divine Sense on the five orbs in his Spirit World.
The Book of Nature, the Balance Holy Scripture, the Star Cloud Strategy, the Crimson Sword, the War Horn...
These were five full sets of the creator’s inheritance.
Two of them were from Qiantian; the other three ca from the Aries Star Lord and his mories.
Of course, thanks to the Aries Star Lord’s mories, the creator’s inheritances he mastered were actually more than these five. However, he only had a deeper understanding of these five, reaching an entry-level and forming orbs in his Spirit World.
"Although they are not of much use to a great being like myself..."
He glanced at the number of Qingguang, which was as much as sixteen hundred, and without hesitation, he injected so of it into the Star Cloud Strategy.
If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
Compared to other inheritances of the creator spread throughout the world, this Star Cloud Strategy was the Aries Star Lord’s greatest foundation.
"Humming!"
With the infusion of Qingguang, a path of the Heavenly Master clearly unfolded before Gu Jinlai’s eyes.
Starting with the Heavenly Master’s Divine Sense condensation, to the Great Heavenly Master Rank’s accumulation of Spiritual Power, to the Heavenly Monarch’s forging of the True Spirit, then step by step True Spirit Crystalization, touching the True Spirit Realm, and reaching the Great Sky Lord’s Primordial Chaos...
Then to...
A sudden enlightennt, transforming into a Spirit Realm Life, ascending to creator.
As for how exactly one attained that sudden enlightennt, Gu Jinlai could not find the slightest clue in the Aries Star Lord’s mory.
Or rather, even the Aries Star Lord himself couldn’t explain this phenonon.
In any case, he had directly skipped to the realm of the creator, embodying Spirit Realm Life.
As the Qingguang continued to wash over him, Gu Jinlai could feel his understanding of the Heavenly Master Path becoming more profound, and his comprehension of Spiritual Power soaring to its peak.
The status of the Star Cloud Strategy also advanced from entry-level straight to the Perfect Level.
Besides, a new trait had erged.
Spirit Transformation.
A predictable and sowhat useless trait.
In the end, Gu Jinlai found that elevating this creator’s inheritance to Perfection didn’t provide the significant assistance he had imagined.
The reason...
The Grand Sun Nine Refinent Visualization thod and the Chen Guangjiu Refinent thod had already perfected the path of the creator nearly to Perfection. The strategies of the Starlight from a thousand years ago might not describe the path of the creator more exquisitely than the Grand Sun Nine Refinent Visualization thod.
And the minor parts about transforming into a Spirit Realm Life, he would not risk it.
In other words, they were of no use to him.
In such a scenario, achieving Cultivation Perfection of the Star Cloud Strategy would at best help him understand and utilize Spirituality, True Spirit, and Spiritual Sense more deeply, but it would not have any imdiate impact on his strength.
"A Great Sky Lord is indeed a realm where advancent is impossible; apart from Spirit Transformation, there are no other options."
Gu Jinlai sighed.
"Humming!"
The next mont, a sense of crushing destruction from above, emanating from the terrifying entity that was fast approaching, weighed down on him.
He could "see" a figure as if a deity from the Nine Heavens, conjuring up a Spiritual Tsunami, crossing the Void, and bursting into his True Spirit.
"Aries Star Lord!"
Gu Jinlai’s eyes seed to burn with Spirit Light: "Let’s battle!"
