Chapter 40 Gu Changsheng's Blood! The Elixir of Immortality! Suppressing All Enemies!
"Puff!"
Qian Renxue spat out a mouthful of blood and was pressed to the ground, her bones cracking and creaking, unable to move even a finger.
This was still because the golden blood wasn't targeting her; it was merely a phenomenon that was passively triggered.
Everyone in Douluo Continent felt as if their hearts were being squeezed tightly.
Even through the sky, they could feel the despair that threatened to destroy the world.
"What is that?!"
"A drop of blood? Just a single drop of dried blood?!"
"My God, what kind of monster's blood is this? It's ten thousand times more terrifying than the blood of a god?!"
Just as Qian Renxue was about to be crushed by this oppressive force.
A cold, clear sword light slashed through the void.
Ye Xian'er appeared in front of Qian Renxue in an instant.
With one hand forming a hand seal, a soft yet resilient celestial light enveloped Qian Renxue, isolating her from the overwhelming pressure.
Didn't I tell you not to move around?
Ye Xian'er frowned slightly as she looked at the nine roaring golden dragons. Instead of fear, her eyes revealed a deep fervor.
Qian Renxue was panting heavily, her body covered in cold sweat, and her eyes were filled with terror.
"Sister Ye... Sister Ye, that's..."
Ye Xian'er reached out and gently stroked the halberd from a distance, her tone becoming exceptionally soft.
"This is a damaged imperial weapon called the Sky-Splitting Halberd."
"As for that golden blood..."
Ye Xian'er turned around, her gaze fixed on the highest point of the Heavenly Court, her voice filled with boundless reverence.
"That is Master's holy blood."
What?!
Qian Renxue's eyes widened.
Viewers of Douluo Continent were so shocked their jaws almost dropped.
Was that Gu Changsheng's blood?
A drop of blood transforms into nine dragons, suppressing the gods?
Is this even human?
Ye Xian'er seemed lost in memories, and slowly said:
"Back then, Master's sacred body was not yet fully formed."
"In the ancient times, all races revived. There was a saint king from another race who, wielding this revived imperial weapon, wanted to annihilate the geniuses of the human race."
"That battle was so fierce that the heavens and the earth trembled."
"Master fought against the imperial weapon with his bare hands, shattering the Sky-Splitting Halberd, and even punched that alien Saint King into a bloody mist."
"This golden holy blood is a remnant from that battle."
"It is not only blood, but also the manifestation of Master's invincible will, suppressing the remaining killing intent of this vicious weapon."
Upon hearing this...
Qian Renxue was completely stunned.
Is the Holy Body not yet fully formed?
In other words, that wasn't the peak of Emperor Gu's reign.
To shatter a weapon of this caliber with bare hands?
What a terrifying physical body and what domineering power that must be!
On the Douluo Continent side, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Yu Xiaogang dropped the pen from his hand, his lips trembling.
"Holy Body… this is indeed the name of a physical constitution."
"He's already this terrifying even before he's fully mastered; what will he be like now, as the Heavenly Emperor, if he were to fully master it..."
"No wonder... no wonder the Holy Lord of Yaochi said that as long as she becomes an emperor, she can help him share the burden."
"In a battle of this level, even gods wouldn't be considered cannon fodder in front of him."
Qian Renxue lay on the ground, looking at the halberd. The fear in her eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by an unprecedented fascination.
That man...
Just how strong is he?
She suddenly felt a strong urge to see the legendary Emperor Gu in person.
"Sister Ye..."
Qian Renxue struggled to get up and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
"What kind of woman does Master like?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xian'er glanced at her, a slight smile playing on her lips.
There are plenty of people who want to mess with Master.
"Apart from the one from Yaochi that you just met."
"And the Palace Master of the Dao Palace, the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion, and even the princess of the Demon Clan, all still think of Master."
"You've seen the one from Yaochi too; she's truly peerless in beauty and grace."
"That one from the Dao Palace is even more exceptionally talented."
How do you feel about yourself compared to them?
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's eyes dimmed slightly.
Yes.
After meeting the Holy Lord of Yaochi, where did she find any confidence left?
The audience of Douluo Continent listened with great interest.
"Holy crap, Emperor Gu is really lucky with women!"
"Are they all goddesses of this caliber?"
"The Palace Master of the Dao Palace? The Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion? Just the names sound so prestigious!"
"Our goddess Qian Renxue doesn't seem to rank highly over there..."
Ye Xian'er didn't say much, and turned to walk deeper into the armory.
Stop daydreaming and get to work.
"Wipe those sacred weapons clean. If Master sees any dust, you will be held responsible."
Qian Renxue quickly followed, but this time, her gaze kept drifting towards the depths of the Heavenly Court, and a seed was planted in her heart.
...
Deep within the Heavenly Court.
In a fairyland shrouded in mist and clouds.
A young man dressed in a black and gold robe stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sea of clouds in the distance.
He had a handsome face, and his eyes seemed to hold the image of the sun and stars falling.
Even when he was just standing quietly, the laws of the Great Dao around him were all bowing down to him.
This is Gu Changsheng.
The number one person in the current world of Shrouding the Heavens, the current Heavenly Emperor.
Behind him, a large black dog, as strong as a calf, stood on its hind legs, pacing back and forth with its paws behind its back.
Things haven't been peaceful lately.
These are the descendants of the Black Emperor. Although their bloodline is not pure, they have inherited some of the Black Emperor's spirit.
It said with some concern:
"Recently, there have been unusual signs of activity in the Undying Mountain and the Divine Ruins."
"Those old codgers who cut themselves in half are probably just getting restless because they see you have too much energy and blood."
"Especially this birthday banquet, what if they suddenly make trouble..."
Gu Changsheng remained calm, not even lifting his eyelids.
"Just a clown."
"I am the Great Accomplished Holy Body, and I shall suppress all enemies in the world."
"If they dare to come, we can use their blood to dye the Heavenly Court's flag red."
These simple words exude an unparalleled confidence.
That invincible aura instantly pierced through the sky, making everyone in the Douluo Continent feel an urge to kneel down and worship.
That's insane!
But they have the right to be arrogant!
The black dog sighed and shook its enormous head.
"I know you're amazing."
"Those who have achieved the highest level of physical prowess throughout history can all challenge the Great Emperor."
"And you, you have broken through the shackles of the Holy Body, making you even stronger than a typical perfect Holy Body."
"But..."
The black dog glanced at Gu Changsheng, a hint of worry flashing in its eyes.
"Although the Holy Body is unparalleled in combat power, its lifespan has always been a major weakness."
"Although your life force is at its peak in this life, it cannot withstand the repeated depletion caused by those several forbidden zones."
"If we don't find a way to live a second life, I'm afraid..."
Gu Changsheng turned around, patted the black dog's head, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"It's alright."
"Your lifespan is limited, go and take it."
"Those forbidden zones and perilous places are not without the elixir of immortality."
"Someone has been hiding this for so long, it's time to bring it out and give it to me to nourish my body."
