I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 910: Instantly disintegrating the broken curtain, I am a heinous person

In the pitch-black expanse of the universe, a vast star field lay broken and fragmented. Powerful winds swept in every direction, capable of annihilating any living beings and cultivators.

This catastrophe was terrifying and dreadful for ordinary creatures. It turned their world upside down, shattered the universe, and left no trace of life or stars.

Amidst this dilapidated sky, the Floating Realm stood out conspicuously. An invisible light curtain seemed to envelop it, creating a vacuum zone where any falling star debris would bounce away upon contact.

This peculiar scene was unmistakable. Even those ordered to destroy the surrounding star field and the cultivators who had faced nine failures on the path to transcendence recognized the presence of an Immortal King—the devil.

The truth couldn’t be hidden from their discerning eyes. Immediately, a colossal hand descended, and an Immortal King relayed the situation in this place back to the Heavenly Court, informing Gu Changge.

“Greetings, my lord.”

King Luo, Xue Xiao, the Immortal King, and others materialized as divine light, descending with golden radiance beneath their feet. They respectfully bowed before Gu Changge, their reverence evident.

There is indeed an issue here.

Gu Changge stepped forth from the void, creating ripples beneath his feet. On closer inspection, the Dao-building expert of this world was beneath him, trampled underfoot, surpassing all laws. Even the laws of heaven seemed to retreat.

He gazed at the nearly transparent area before him and nodded slightly. To outsiders, it appeared unremarkable, making it impossible to discern any anomalies. Yet, in Gu Changge’s eyes, the scene was crystal clear, revealing a vast world inside.

A majestic sacred mountain stood tall, emitting a lonely and ancient atmosphere, resembling an expansive continent.

This seemed like a concealed small world, but Gu Changge could sense it’s unusual nature. It was not a simple realm.

There is an aura of vastness within it.

Gu Changge landed in the void before him. From his vantage point, he could witness all the scenes unfolding ahead. He felt someone observing him within this small world.

The group of people who escaped from the Moon Palace back then?

Gu Changge smiled faintly, extending his hand to touch the invisible light curtain before him. Although everyone else could not see this light curtain, they all felt an overwhelming force.

At that moment, their legs weakened, the heavens and earth pressed heavily upon them, and their spines seemed on the verge of bending. The entire sky appeared to descend, carrying boundless power that crushed them. Even the Immortal Kings struggled under such pressure, nearly brought to their knees.

They were horrified, realizing that Gu Changge was exerting his force, making it seem as if the entire world was within the palm of his hand.

Crack!

A sound resembling the shattering of glass or the breaking of a sword emanated through the air. Something transparent appeared to split open in the invisible void before their eyes.

The formidable power of the heavens surged like a tide, attempting to compress and rupture it. The sky and earth echoed with thunderous roars, and the vast void collapsed.

The curtain cracked.

All the cultivators and creatures in the Floating Realm were stunned by the unfolding scene and rendered speechless. The world trembled, resembling an earthquake rumbling and shaking, as countless cracks spread.

Volcanoes erupted, lakes dried up, and auras evaporated directly. Even the combined efforts of the Immortal Kings failed to breach the formation that had safeguarded this place for countless years.

As the young man’s palm descended, innumerable cracks spread like a spider web, signaling an imminent rupture.

Cen Shuang and the others wore expressions of utmost seriousness, fixated on that side. At this moment, a collective feeling of fear and helplessness overwhelmed their hearts as if confronting an unstoppable giant.

We can’t stop him.

The old turtle on the high platform shook his head slightly and sighed. His originally hunched figure suddenly straightened up, a glint appearing in his cloudy old eyes. Stepping out of the city of no return, he emerged above the sky, intending to confront Gu Changge directly.

Old Turtle.

Exclamations of no return echoed the city’s residents, carrying a deep sorrow. The remaining elders also bore solemn expressions. After exchanging glances, they chose to step forward, facing the impending crisis alongside Gui Lao.

The aura of Immortal Kings filled the sky, attempting to stabilize the crumbling Floating Realm. However, the number of Immortal Kings in the Floating Realm was limited. They relied on the heritage left from the Immortal Palace era. However, the divine power within those fragments of real bones had long been depleted, rendering them ineffective. Apart from Gui Lao, the other Immortal Kings were already in a state of waning strength.

Since the Forbidden Era, the town had been sealed off to alleviate the depletion of spiritual energy. However, it was still insufficient, and true immortality remained unattainable, particularly at the level of the Immortal King.

This is simply not something I can contend with.

The golden-winged roc, now in human form as a middle-aged man, shook his head and sighed, his eyes filled with fear.

Among the other ancient beasts, some possessed cultivation strength at the level of the Immortal King, but they dared not act rashly. They were well aware of the terror of the large curtain formation outside Fuyan, impervious even to the might of an Immortal King.

Despite several Immortal Kings from the outside world joining forces for days, they couldn’t shatter it. Yet, under Gu Changge’s seemingly effortless pressure, it crumbled completely.

This power was so terrible that it could crush all living beings beyond the reach of mere speculation. As the cultivators and creatures in the Floating Realm felt unease and trembling, the sound of cracking echoed once more from the sky.

The curtain on the brink of shattering disintegrated into a rain of light, unveiling the pitch-black starry sky above the Floating Realm. All the inhabitants could now witness the undisturbed, detached, pure land, where ancient trees stretched across the vast wilderness, and many ancient beasts roamed freely.

In the distance, a city’s silhouette hung high above the sky, seemingly impervious to falling. The shock was palpable among the immortal kings, and they marveled at the strong aura emanating from this hidden transcendent place, comparable to the ancient times.

Is this one of the nine wonderlands of the Immortal Domain?

King Luo and the other immortal kings expressed their astonishment.

Gu Changge recognized this place instantly. A long time ago, there was a pure land known as Pure Immortal Mountain in the Immortal Domain. Among its features was an unparalleled wondrous root, referred to as the Nine Mysterious Roots by some or the Ninth World Mystical Root by others.

Legend had it that this root belonged to a powerhouse with an unpredictable cultivation path. He took a different route in each of his lives, surpassing the previous peak and leaving behind his Dao fruit. The Nine Mysterious Roots represented the Dao roots left after his ninth life, as this extraordinary powerhouse aimed to undergo one rebirth for nine generations. Using an alternative method, he planned to survive the nine declines of heaven and man, ultimately leaping into transcendence.

However, the unworldly powerhouse failed during the attempt to return for the ninth time. The rootless fire ignited from the depths of his soul, reducing all of his Daoism to ashes. While nine declines represented the pinnacle of extremity in this world, attempting to break through this restriction would draw the attention of the dark forces.

Gu Changge knew about this because he witnessed the burning of this extraordinary individual in the original world. However, the “he” in question was not the current Gu Changge but the one in the actual world. No creature in this world could withstand the gaze of the original ancestor before transcending, even the supreme beings approaching the ninth decline.

After the unworldly powerhouse was incinerated, a seed was left in the black ashes – the Nine Mysterious Roots. Later, it was acquired by the owner of Pure Immortal Mountain and planted there. However, when the Nine Mysterious Roots matured, they were divided into nine pieces during a destructive lightning calamity.

Each piece transformed into a wonderland, holding various mysteries and potentially harboring the good fortune of the once-unworldly powerhouse. Rumors also suggested that the nine wonderlands were formed from the body of the once-unworldly powerhouse and that he would return someday. However, Gu Changge wasn’t interested in these rumors, and whether the powerhouse was born or not made no difference to him.

Entering the Floating Realm, Gu Changge observed several Immortal Kings approaching him. King Luo, Immortal King Xue Xiao, and others were ready to strike at the individuals before them.

“Bold,” King Luo and the others expressed their anger as they prepared for battle.

“No need,” Gu Changge waved his hand, signaling them to stop.

He spoke calmly, “I don’t want to cause unnecessary bloodshed. If you intend to destroy this place, then I don’t mind.”

The City of No Return elders, including Gui Lao, were puzzled by Gu Changge’s words.

They didn’t fully understand the implications, but they didn’t want to engage in a battle with several Immortal Kings. The aftermath of such a confrontation would undoubtedly devastate the vulnerable Floating Realm, now without the protection of the shattered curtain.

After all, this place was akin to a small world, and the spatial stability here was far less robust than that of the Immortal Domain. Even the Immortal Domain itself couldn’t withstand the clash of Immortal King-level battles and needed to relocate to the depths of the boundless universe. Their expressions shifted, and they were reluctant to fight with Gu Changge if it could be avoided. Such a confrontation would lead to inevitable destruction.

“I don’t know, Demon Lord, what is the purpose behind this action?”

Gui Lao hesitated but eventually asked, realizing that they could face death, but there were still many cultivators and beings in the Floating Realm. Gu Changge’s decision to destroy this place could be carried out with just a word, and he wouldn’t need to do it himself.

Gu Changge responded faintly, “I don’t have any ulterior motives. I’m here to find someone.”

He continued, “If I intended to ruin this place, I wouldn’t need to be present. I believe you understand this.”

The City of No Return elders had to acknowledge the truth in Gu Changge’s words. If he wanted to destroy this place, he could do so from a distance. The location of this place was irrelevant; Gu Changge could obliterate it with a single gesture, even across multiple universes.

Gui Lao, maintaining respect in his tone, asked, “Demon Lord, who are you looking for?”

Gu Changge didn’t elaborate much, maintaining his light smile. “Take me to meet the person who is communicating with you, or the most senior individual.”

“The oldest person?” Gui Lao and the others’ expressions changed, harboring suspicions and unease.

A vast wilderness unfolded on the border between the Floating Realm and the Immortal Realm, featuring towering ancient trees, majestic mountains, and places shrouded in purple clouds. This environment would seem ancient to those from the Immortal Domain. Many elements showcased the style of the ancient period, including the simple clothing worn by Gui Lao and his companions, which starkly contrasted with the current era’s fashion.

As they approached the city of no return, King Luo and the other Immortal Kings, witnessing it for the first time, couldn’t help but be surprised. Despite the absence of visible formations around the city, it operated seamlessly, synchronizing with the celestial arrangement of stars in the sky, seeming to float in a vast sea.

This sea is quite peculiar.

And why does this place exude such a profound aura?

King Luo and the others’ expressions subtly changed as they sensed that there might be numerous hidden secrets in this seemingly straightforward location.

As the city of No Return floated quietly, it became apparent that there was more to this place than met the eye. With its enigmatic operation, the town was essential for the entire area.

Why have the elders brought this demon here?

What exactly happened?

The residents of No Return were perplexed and disturbed by the unfolding scene. They were unsure why Gui Lao and the other elders had brought Gu Changge, the primary culprit behind the destruction of the curtain.

Many children sought refuge behind their parents, eyes filled with fear and apprehension. Since childhood, they had been taught that the devil, Gu Changge, destroyed their former homeland.

Now, this terrifying figure had reappeared in the world and emerged in the city of No Return. Even their parents and elders were afraid, leaving the children silent and paralyzed with fear.

A profound silence enveloped the entire City of No Return, with no one daring to utter a word. Adults covered their children’s mouths, anxious about any noise they might make.

“It seems that in your eyes, I am truly a wicked person,” Gu Changge remarked with an indifferent chuckle, observing the fearful reaction of the inhabitants.
