Undying Life

Chapter 490: Great, Great, Great

The Eye of Heaven opened! An immense pressure descended, its gaze being the strongest in the world. With one glance, the entire Ancient Holy Capital sank nearly ten meters.

Another group of people fell to their knees in fear, and many more retreated again and again.

A dense and intense aura of murderous intent swirled above the Ancient Holy Capital, the Eye of Heaven brimming with hatred.

Gushentong stared coldly, naturally refusing to retreat at this moment.

After locking onto Gushentong, the blood-red pupil of the Eye of Heaven suddenly contracted.

A purple beam of light shot out from the blood-red pupil, like a thick laser, blasting towards Gushentong.

Wherever the purple beam passed, it left a long black streak in the sky, a linear black hole. The purple light pierced through space, tearing it apart as it aimed directly at Gushentong.

Though small in quantity, the purple light was concentrated essence.

Gushentong's eyes were filled with seriousness. Facing this extremely fast purple beam, Gushentong extended his fist again, punching towards the beam. Using force to break all laws, Gushentong confronted the heavens with sheer strength.

"Boom!"

The surroundings trembled, and a massive shockwave erupted from Gushentong's fist, shattering the surrounding space into a giant black hole. After three breaths, Gushentong's figure reappeared.

Gushentong's forehead was bulging with veins, and his fist was also veined. One punch, one punch had finally shattered the purple beam.

Gushentong let out a long breath, but the malevolent aura above grew even heavier.

Seeing one attack fail, the Eye of Heaven sent another beam from its pupil, this time green.

Gushentong followed the same method, swinging his fist again, the golden light on his fist shining brighter, and punched with even greater force.

"Boom!"

Another massive explosion, the black hole even larger this time. When the space restored, everyone saw Gushentong still standing, but his right sleeve had been blasted away. Even Gushentong couldn't protect it.

With his right sleeve gone, Gushentong's golden body was exposed.

Gushentong raised an eyebrow, and then another beam, this time blue, shot from the blood-red pupil.

"Boom!"

After a powerful collision, Gushentong reappeared, his upper body clothing entirely blown away.

"The Extinction Beams are getting stronger. If Gushentong doesn't get serious, he will be in danger," Emperor Xuan Xia sighed lightly.

Zhong Shan also narrowed his eyes, looking at the scene. Purple, green, blue; would the next one be yellow? According to the light spectrum, the Seven-Colored Extinction Beams?

Sure enough, another beam descended, and it was indeed yellow, with even greater power, crashing down towards Gushentong.

As it neared Gushentong, he finally got serious.

"Boom!"

The yellow beam struck Gushentong's position but was suddenly reflected back, shooting upwards towards the Eye of Heaven.

Enraged, the Eye of Heaven sent down a green beam, annihilating the yellow beam and continuing its descent.

Seeing the unstoppable power of the Eye of Heaven, the onlookers' faces were filled with fear and awe. This was a battle of the highest magnitude, one that could reshape the world itself.

It was the weapon that appeared in Gushentong's hand that had just reflected the Eye of Heaven's attack—a colossal axe. The blade was immense and fierce, with the handle covered in intricate, mysterious runes that glowed with power. This axe had deflected the green beam, and now the yellow beam was coming down. Gushentong raised the formidable axe and swung it skyward.

"Boom!"

The terrifying axe cleaved through the sky, annihilating the yellow beam with a single swing.

"The Heaven-Cleaving Axe?" Zhong Shan exclaimed in surprise.

The Heaven-Cleaving Axe wielded such power? The yellow beam was incredibly strong—everyone knew that even a Heavenly Extreme cultivator would struggle to withstand it. Yet, it was effortlessly obliterated by a single swing of the axe?

Gushentong was finally getting serious.

As the dragon robe that had been destroyed by the beams reappeared on Gushentong's body, a result of his magical abilities, he projected an image of supreme authority. An emperor's strength and status were not just about power; they embodied an inviolable image of supremacy.

The blood-red pupil of the Eye of Heaven stared at Gushentong, hesitating for a moment. As Gushentong's clothes reformed, the eye shot out another beam, this time orange. The orange beam tore through the sky, leaving a long black trail as it shot towards Gushentong.

The Heaven-Cleaving Axe swung up once more, sending a beam of axe energy towards the light.

"Slash!"

The axe energy was obliterated, and the orange beam continued its path towards Gushentong.

"Boom!"

The orange beam struck the axe blade, but was consumed by the axe's radiant golden light.

Gushentong had blocked it once again.

Zhong Shan understood that each color change in the beams increased their power exponentially, becoming ten times stronger each time. Now, it was time for the red beam.

Indeed, the Eye of Heaven gathered its energy, and a final red beam shot down. The red beam was surrounded by a murderous aura, making even the spectators' eyes burn with pain.

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, the red beam reached Gushentong. The Heaven-Cleaving Axe rose to meet it.

"Boom!"

This time, it seemed even the Heaven-Cleaving Axe struggled to withstand the impact. As the black hole dissipated, Gushentong's clothes were once again mostly torn away, and his hair was singed at the tips.

Had Gushentong reached his limit?

But just at this critical moment, Gushentong managed to withstand the final strike from the Eye of Heaven, barely holding his ground.

The Eye of Heaven, unwilling to accept a stalemate with this defiant mortal, fixed its bloodshot gaze on Gushentong. Suddenly, countless red beams shot out from the Eye, not targeting Gushentong but surrounding and protecting the Eye itself.

One red beam had left Gushentong in tatters; now, thousands surrounded the Eye of Heaven, making it feel invulnerable. The white of the Eye was now engulfed in a bloody mist, shrouding the Eye completely.

It was clear that the Eye of Heaven was preparing an even more powerful attack. The red beams served as protection, indicating that the Eye was in a state of 'vulnerability' as it gathered its strength.

Below, Gushentong's clothing reformed with energy once more. Seeing the scene in the sky, a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips. This was the moment he had been waiting for—the Eye of Heaven's vulnerable state during its preparation.

Gushentong's eyes widened as he stood tall and firm.

"People of the Great Luo Dynasty, now raise your hands and lend me all your strength," Gushentong commanded.

Though his voice wasn't loud, it reverberated throughout the world. Every single citizen of the Great Luo Dynasty—fifty billion people—heard his call, no matter if they were near the Taigu Sacred Capital or on distant overseas islands.

Zhong Shan's pupils contracted as he recalled the records in Founding the Heavenly Court. The text mentioned the power of an emperor to gather the might of the entire court and the world. This was the first time Zhong Shan truly understood its meaning. The emperor had the power to communicate directly with his subjects' hearts.

The people of the Great Luo Dynasty, heeding their emperor's call, raised their hands immediately. With the decree from the Three Great Empires and the Three Great Sacred Grounds forbidding any attacks during this time, there was no fear of external threats.

Zhong Shan raised his hands.

"Whoooosh!"

Suddenly, Zhong Shan felt all his strength drain from his body, leaving him nearly collapsing to the ground. How could this be? All his energy, gone?

Dragging his weakened body, Zhong Shan quickly examined himself. His essence was almost entirely depleted, his spirit dimmed, and his internal energy drained to the point of near exhaustion. It would take a month of rest to recover.

Quickly, he took out spirit stones to replenish his energy.

What was happening? The energy loss was too strange, disappearing without any clear cause.

It wasn't just Zhong Shan—every citizen of the Great Luo Dynasty experienced the same. All around him, people were raising their hands only to collapse shortly after, their energy drained completely.

Seeing people fall, some hesitated, but when they realized there were no lasting harms beyond needing some rest, they raised their hands as well, one by one, collapsing in turn.

Only the people of the Great Luo Dynasty could contribute their energy this way; outsiders found their efforts futile, as they were not part of the dynasty.

Fifty billion—fifty billion cultivators of the Great Luo Dynasty raised their hands, and the collective energy flowed towards Gushentong. This number alone hinted at an unimaginable, colossal power.

Before Zhong Shan's eyes, far in the distance, Gushentong stood on the peak of Taigu Sacred Mountain, holding the Heaven-Cleaving Axe. Suddenly, he radiated with a dazzling golden light. A powerful aura enveloped him, making his figure appear hazy.

The hazy figure of Gushentong began to undergo an incredible transformation, astonishing everyone watching. His body began to grow, larger and larger.

People's eyes widened in disbelief as Gushentong's figure continued to expand—ten meters, a hundred meters, a thousand meters, ten thousand meters. He kept growing until he seemed to touch the sky, towering over the Taigu Sacred Capital. The mountains where the spectators stood now only reached up to his feet.

Gushentong had transformed into a giant of unimaginable size, his stature dominating the landscape. This spectacle left countless people stunned, their eyes wide with shock and awe.
