Chapter 1124: The dread of the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’, unyielding flow of time
Gu Changge showcased the power of a Remnant Immortal, swiftly resolving the three Dao-building experts and numerous Scared Realm a.s.sa.s.sins who had set an ambush in this location. This left everyone who witnessed the scene utterly stunned and unable to recover for quite some time. Their hearts were filled with awe.
Previously, many had doubted about Gu Changge’s strength, wondering just how far he had progressed. However, now that they knew, they were left speechless, their eyes filled with fear and trepidation. Their minds were buzzing with disbelief.
Gu Changge was unquestionably using his own power to make a profound impact on the Upper Realm. The various events that transpired here were quickly relayed by the spies of different factions. It was believed that it wouldn’t be long before the entire Upper Realm heard about it.
On their way back to the Gu family estate to celebrate the marriage, three Dao-building experts had set up a forbidden array, but Gu Changge effortlessly dispelled it with a wave of his hand in less than three breaths of time. Such a feat would likely be beyond the capabilities of most other individuals.
In the vast expanse of the star field, Gu Changge stood tall and indistinct. His figure was slender and ethereal, his black robe fluttered in the wind, and his ink-black hair gleamed, some strands even radiating a chaotic aura, blending with the cosmos. He appeared as a young immortal king, his eyes cold and profound.
He slowly surveyed his surroundings, his gaze flashing with a radiance that resembled the terrifying chaos thunderbolt streaking across the universe, shattering the order of Dao rules, sending shivers down the spine of those people who beheld it.
“Continue to move forward.”
He instructed calmly, allowing the Gu family’s welcoming army to press onward on their way back to the Gu family estate.
Normally, Gu Changge presented a humble and gentle image to the public, treating others with kindness and gentleness. He rarely displayed such cold indifference, with his eyes exuding an aura of impending catastrophe.
In the surrounding universe, there was silence. Even the many hidden powerhouses couldn’t help but shudder, their very souls trembling.
But they could understand. After all, this happened on the path where Gu Changge and Yu Mingkong were about to be married, even during the wedding procession. The various immortal forces had sent Dao-building experts to cause disruptions, intending to spoil the joyous occasion for Gu Changge and the Gu family.
If they were in their shoes, they wouldn’t be able to endure such a situation.
Three Dao-building experts made their move. It seems Gu Changge’s suspicions were on point.”
“In this way, at least three factions have taken action… There are definitely more of them in the dark.”
“So, that means at least three major immortal forces have acted… and there are definitely more behind the scenes.”
Among the welcoming procession, Yu Mingkong sat in the exquisite immortal jade carriage, her expression equally cold. She did not draw back the curtains to observe the outside scenery. To her, there was no reason to be concerned about Gu Changge’s strength. In the current Upper Realm, there would be no danger unless background figures wielding immortal treasures attempted to besiege him.
Nevertheless, this situation acted as an indication that their grand wedding with Gu Changge would not proceed smoothly.
Buzz!!
Golden inscriptions flashed through the void, imprinting on a decree and then transmitting it, disappearing from sight. For years, Yu Mingkong had been secretly training the Shura Guards according to Gu Changge’s instructions.
It was an extremely terrifying force, with each Shura Guard’s strength rivaling that of the Sacred Realm. Due to their unique cultivation of secret techniques, they felt no fear, pain, or hesitation. They even mastered hundreds of combined attack methods. The leader of the Shura Guards was at the Supreme Realm, quasi-Emperor Realm, and they even had a Dao-building expert among them.
This terrifying force had remained hidden within various small realms, never truly revealing itself in the Upper Realm. Yu Mingkong planned to wait for the right moment to unleash this power, catching their attacker off guard.
Soon, the grand wedding procession continued its journey, shaking the universe, causing the stars to quiver. Several Dao-building experts from the Gu family flew ahead to clear the way, their gazes cold and filled with murderous intent as they scanned the surrounding star field, vigilant against a repeat of the previous incident.
News about this place quickly spread throughout the Upper Realm.
Prominent figures such as the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’, the Golden Sun G.o.ddess, and the Chana Ancient Buddha, who had profound backgrounds, fell silent. Before, they could marvel at the young and formidable generation, but now they no longer had the privilege.
“To think he could suppress three Dao-building experts like that. This young one is truly well-hidden. This old Daoist initially believed he had barely entered the ranks of the Dao-building experts and relied on some precious treasure or technique to eradicate h.e.l.l…”
Deep within the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ wore an extremely grim expression. He directly slapped the mountain peak before him into ashes. One of the three Dao-building experts was his appointed follower, who had been sealed for many years and was already nearing the end of their life, without the opportunity to advance further. That’s why the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ sent them to both upset the Gu family and ascertain which powerful individuals were concealed in the wedding procession.
However, it was unexpected that with just a wave of Gu Changge’s hand, he obliterated these individuals. This left the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ state of mind in turmoil and instability. He felt that it wouldn’t be long before he would truly face Gu Changge, and maybe… he wouldn’t be a match for him.
Having reached the level of a Remnant Immortal, the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ was no slouch. He had lost an eye due to his pursuit of divine knowledge. At this moment, the premonition he experienced was unprecedentedly strong.
Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ forehead throbbed in pain, even starting to split open, and fresh blood flowed, a horrifying sight. “I must eliminate Gu Changge, or I will truly die at his hands,” he muttered, his face turning grim. His figure blurred, and the empty s.p.a.ce in front of him ripped open, allowing him to step inside.
He emerged in a vast and grandiose palace that seemed as if it didn’t exist in the world, and it

“If the three of you don’t appear soon, the Heavenly Emperor Mountain’s legacy might come to an end in this world.”
“The opportunity to become Immortals is right before you. I hope the three of you awaken quickly.”
After the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ arrived, he let out a sigh of relief. Then, he addressed the three Dao-building experts sitting before him.
The Heavenly Emperor Mountain had a long history, once ruling over the ancient clans, and the leaders of their lineage came from different races with differing bloodlines. The three figures in front of him were the other three profound beings still present in the Heavenly Emperor Mountain’s legacy. Their cultivation was no weaker than him.
Sensing the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ aura, the three figures on the cushions slowly opened their eyes.
Seeing this, the Daoist ‘One-Eyed’ couldn’t help but show a glimmer of hope. With the four profound beings of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain and their many ancient artifacts, could Gu Changge still pose a threat?
…
Several days pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, and the wedding procession responsible for welcoming the bride had finally traversed the lengthy cosmic tunnels, returning to the star field where the Gu family resided. Along the way, there were no more surprises.
All the stars were adorned in celebratory decorations, with the radiance of dawn intermingling, and auspicious scenes gracing the skies, illuminating the entire universe with a festive atmosphere.
In the vast and boundless expanse, countless star fields and ancient life-bearing stars were decked out for the Gu family’s celebration. Almost every life-bearing star sparkled with lights, immortal cranes soaring across the sky.
In the star field near the central region, the ancient divine mountains stood tall and vast, stretching endlessly. They had been tamed by the most powerful members of the Gu family beforehand, becoming the residence for the guests.
This was because the wedding ceremony was truly monumental, with nearly all of the Upper Realm’s oldest and most ancient immortal forces converging. Lesser forces didn’t have the opportunity to enter the central area and had to temporarily stay in the outermost area. Even so, these peripheral regions were fully occupied and buzzing with activity, filled with the figures of cultivators and attentive beings.
Rumble!!
The universe resonated as the bridal army returned, marching along a silver-red galaxy interwoven with dawn’s light, heading toward the main island of the Gu family.
“His big wedding…”
Within the divine island of the sacred mountains, many esteemed guests watched as the immortal carriage descended towards the heart of the Gu family. The Empress Xi Yao of the Demon world, adorned in phoenix-like attire, with her graceful and icy beauty, gazed at Gu Changge, who was riding off on a dragon horse.
For a moment, she stood still, and a bitter smile crept onto her lips. Although it had been only a few years since Gu Changge left the Demon world, it felt long to her. She knew that such days would only become longer, perhaps even eternal. After all, in the end, it’s just like falling petals, while time flows on, indifferent, leaving no trace.
“Young Master Gu…”
In another direction of the island, several figures watched the scene from afar, their hearts filled with both bitterness and envy. Yan Ji, Lin Qiuhan, and others had once shared deep connections with Gu Changge. However, as Gu Changge’s strength and status became more terrible, they gradually couldn’t keep up and could no longer see his figure.
Occasionally, they would catch glimpses of him only through images on some scattered stone tablets circulating throughout the Upper Realm.
