Chapter 1109: Refining the Ancient Heavenly Lord of Reincarnation, trying to interfere with the long river of time

Gu Changge began to sort through the many gifts left by the Reincarnated Heaven Lord for him. Among them, the most precious were the Dao Fruits that the Reincarnated Heaven Lord had acc.u.mulated over countless ages in various ancient cosmos. Besides these, there was also the body that exceeded the level of a Remnant Immortal.

As for the various Immortal scripture relics, incomplete immortal artifacts, and other things hidden in the s.p.a.ce of the soul palace,Gu Changge considered them to be less important compared to these two crucial items.

In the next few days, Gu Changge began to refine puppets in the depths of this depleted universe.

In the following days, Gu Changge started to refine a puppet deep within this desolate universe.

Rumble!!

Terrifying Dao Building experts burned with an incredibly high temperature, emitting billions of scarlet rays, causing the entire universe to collapse. Vast expanses of Dao runes enveloped the body of the Reincarnated Heaven Lord, resembling a blazing and majestic sun.

This place had turned into a horrifying sea of fire. Even if Dao Building experts entered, their form and spirit would be annihilated in an instant, reduced to ashes.

Compared to crafting a puppet from ordinary Dao Building experts, the body of the Reincarnated Heaven Lord was much more challenging to refine. The difficulty level was on a completely different scale.

The physical strength of an average Dao Building expert’s body could be likened to an egg, while the body of the Reincarnated Heaven Lord was more akin to iron and stone. They were incomparable.

Gu Changge could craft a puppet of Dao Building experts in a relatively short time, but he spent a significant amount of time just erasing the runes within the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s body.

If he wanted to refine himself into a perfect puppet, it was necessary to ensure the seamless integration of the original aura with the current one, preventing any conflicts between the two auras that might cause the body to shatter.

Another crucial factor was the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s exceptionally long cultivation history. Even though his divine soul had dissipated, traces of his aura and presence remained within this body.

Gu Changge’s task was to completely erase these traces and imbue the body with his own runes.

Rumble!!

Over the next half month, a terrifying atmosphere permeated the area, and chaotic energy roiled. Black Dao runes floated and interwove, ill.u.s.trating the profound mysteries of life and death and the cycle of reincarnation.

The entire universe trembled, and the surrounding stars were reduced to dust, swept away by the dissipating aura, turning into ashes in an instant.

A Daoist with a feathered robe and a starry crown sat cross-legged at the center of the universe, seemingly breathing in harmony with the sky and earth. Every inch of his flesh, bones, and organs had the aura of reincarnation flowing and intertwining, with the black and white dual energies continuously forming a self-contained party.

“I’ve finally succeeded, I didn’t expect refining this puppet would take so long.”

“But the gains are not small. This Reincarnated Heaven Lord puppet can definitely pa.s.s as the real thing.”

Gu Changge shook his head, waved his sleeves, and stored the Reincarnated Heaven Lord puppet away. Unless someone was very familiar with the Reincarnated Heaven Lord, they wouldn’t be able to distinguish the difference between this puppet and the original.

During the battle with Gu Changge, the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s body hadn’t been torn apart. There was only a terrifying crack at the center of his brows, cleaved open and unhealable by the Eight Desolation Demonic Halberd.

However, while refining this puppet, Gu Changge had already removed the destructive aura that remained within the wound, allowing the crack to heal completely.

“Next is to find the Dao Fruits acc.u.mulated by the Reincarnated Heaven Lord and look for a suitable world,” Gu Changge continued his actions without pause, tearing open a cosmic tunnel, and disappearing from this universe.

Having absorbed and devoured the Reincarnated Heaven Lord’s soul, Gu Changge could precisely sense the locations where the Reincarnated Heaven Lord had left behind his contingencies in various ancient universes.

Although the Reincarnated Heaven Lord had perished, this Dharmic body of his still existed in the world and hadn’t disappeared. These Dharmic bodies varied in strength, with the strongest being comparable to Half-Immortals, while the weaker ones were on the level of Dao Building experts.

For Gu Changge, collecting these Dao Fruits wasn’t a troublesome task. It just required a bit of time. Fortunately, his speed was quite fast. After exploring several universe regions, he quickly found the locations of these Dharmic bodies and chose to devour them.

After swallowing these Dao Fruits, Gu Changge didn’t choose to refine them immediately. Like the Reincarnated Heaven Lord, he planned to refine them after breaking through to the Immortal realm. Dao Fruits were different from Origin Energy. While Origin Energy could enhance one’s cultivation, Dao Fruits could a.s.sist in realm comprehension and various insights, making them more versatile.

Gu Changge was currently at the late-stage of a Dao Building expert’s strength and was only one step away from the threshold of Immortal Realm. To continue increasing his cultivation, he simply needed to devour a Remnant Immortal’s Origin Energy, so there was no need to refine the Dao Fruits immediately. Their true value would be revealed later.

During the process of collecting these Dao Fruits, Gu Changge also discovered a very suitable ancient universe for his future plans.

That universe region was incredibly vast and ancient, with a history that, in Gu Changge’s eyes, could rival the Upper Realm. It was home to many life domains, with numerous stars and large planets teeming with life. Several powerful and ancient races occupied vast territories and referred to themselves as royalty, with ancestors who had achieved the Dao Buildings expertise. Even in the present day, they possessed Dao Building experts weapons that could suppress their heritage, and their longevity exceeded that of the surrounding universes. This was largely due to the presence of many Dao Building experts who had been born here.

Some enormous and ancient forces had established themselves as sects or aristocratic families. They, too, had ancestors who had achieved the Dao Building expertise, and their family heritage ran deep, with Dao experts weapons that could be revived at any time.

While the rules in this universe were highly fragmented, it did not hinder its ancient and long-standing heritage. Many Dao Building experts had been born here. Even today, some of the ancient royal families and sects still had quasi-emperors, sealed within the divine origin, awaiting a great world to achieve the Dao expertise.

“The laws of heaven and earth in this universe are incomplete, but not suppressive,” Gu Changge observed as he surveyed the situation with his spiritual sense. “However, life materials are extremely scarce. They can only support a Dao Building expert’s life for a hundred thousand years. To extend their lives, they either use imperial medicine to live another life. Some even choose to commit self-slaughter, forsaking their fate, and hide in certain areas with special rule conditions to establish their own prohibited zones.”

Gu Changge tore through the barrier of this universe, stood in the air, and looked down on the situation with his divine sense. From his perspective, this situation perfectly matched the characteristics of the Dharma-ending period.

The Immortal road was collapsing, the destiny was severed, and the lifespan of Dao Building experts had sharply decreased, only allowing them to live for a hundred thousand years. In contrast, Dao Building experts in the Upper Realm could easily live for tens of millions of years, provided they didn’t suffer any major injuries. The various Immortal forces, Longevity Families, Longevity medicines, and Immortal Trees further extended their lifespans. If all else failed, they could retreat to the depths of their clans, avoiding the Declines of Heaven and Man, and survive by enduring.

“Given the circ.u.mstances, I’ll choose this universe.”

Gu Changge decided. His figure slowly emerged from the depths of the universe, and he blended seamlessly with the void.

Even if Dao Building experts were before him, they wouldn’t be able to detect his presence. The heaven and earth in this universe ‘s will tried to resist his arrival, but as the Dao runes manifested around him, they turned into terrifying black holes that devoured all rules and matter. The will of this universe region withdrew, no longer approaching him.

“If I want to establish a layout in this universe, I’ll need to start from the other end of the river of time and spread a big lie or alter the past.”

Gu Changge mused, exploring this universe for a long time.

Gu Changge’s gaze s.h.i.+fted as he explored the river of time in this universe. The river of time in different universes varied. Although they eventually converged, along the way, they branched into countless smaller streams of time. With Gu Changge’s current level of cultivation, he couldn’t interfere with the ma.s.sive,  main river of time that was running through heavens. However, the river of time in some shattered universes was different.

These smaller streams of time were influenced by the fragmented laws of those universes. Even if someone traveled through them or attempted to alter the past, as long as their cultivation and strength were terrible, they could withstand the backlash and the consequences of karma.
