Chapter 444: line with translation of title, then ===GLOSSARY=== with list of named entities

Boom—!!!

A terrifying burst of sound exploded in midair!

Like an ultra‑brilliant scorching sun, dazzling in countless ways, terrifying violet flames enveloped an incomparably massive force of tens of millions of tons, and thunderously released!

Hundreds of millions of the Nine‑God All‑Phenomena Mechanism Seals were activated simultaneously, heat raging, and a clanging sound rang on without end!

The void moving above the heavens, like a pulled carpet, jolted violently, and then both the raging airflow and the resilient void collapsed silently.

The space collapsed directly downwards!

One punch—

Piercing the void!

Roaring torrents of airflow wailed and burst, raging intertwined, howling out from the shattered void in a furious surge, accompanied by an extremely violent raging gale.

Gu Yangxuan, a great cultivator of the divine tribulation, was hit with a single glance and was blasted apart by a terrifying, mountain‑toppling force with one punch!

The heavens burst open with an intensely thick blood‑stained flower!

Countless fine void fissures interwove densely, raging incessantly.

Then, an extremely mournful wail erupted, Gu Yangxuan's Heaven‑and‑Earth Dao Soul coalesced, his face twisted in ferocity, and he suffered immense pain.

The flesh body…

Was blasted apart!

He had nurtured his flesh body with human medicine for so many years, yet it was blasted apart with a single glance!

Underworld Horse‑Face…

How could this be possible?!

Gu Yangxuan's Heaven‑and‑Earth Dao Soul coalesced, his eyes filled with a blood‑stained hue, endless pain interweaving over his body.

He roared repeatedly, his anger unending!

Then, his spirit settled upon that rotating All‑Arm Sky‑Equal Armor that activated billions of All‑Phenomena Mechanism Seals!

Those exceedingly slender twin arms, burning with violet flames, possessed a power that made heaven and earth tremble with calamity.

It left Gu Yangxuan, whose only remaining essence was his Heaven‑and‑Earth Dao Soul, in unparalleled terror!

However, what terrified Gu Yangxuan even more was that the mechanical beast before him could actually unleash combat power comparable to a War‑God level!

In this world, there truly exists such a mechanical beast?!

On the other side.

Gu Yinxuan's expression grew extremely gloomy, and he watched the terrifying mechanical giant ape that emerged before him with a mixture of surprise and doubt.

What year is tonight?!

Mechanical arts… have they already advanced to this level?

A mechanical beast comparable to a War‑God… the Tang family's mechanisms have actually reached this height?

When Gu Yinxuan, the Poison Saint, was forced by various divine sects' strongmen into a feigned death, mechanical arts were still a minor path; although the Tang family was developing them, they were far inferior compared to the recognized divine avenues of divine weapons, divine pills, divine talismans, and divine eagles.

And now, mechanical beasts can match War‑Gods?

For a moment, Gu Yinxuan's mind grew even gloomier, a bit irritable, feeling as if he were an old relic abandoned by the times.

Even though he truly is an old relic…

Gu Yangxuan was blocked by the All‑Arm Sky‑Equal Armor, his flesh body blasted apart by a punch; Gu Yinxuan's expression grew even colder, his arms spread, his black robe fluttering, he slammed into the void, choosing to abandon Gu Yangxuan and attempt to escape.

Heaven‑Pill Divine Sect… its great momentum has already passed.

He feigned death for a thousand years; regarding the Heaven‑Pill Divine Sect, he no longer harbors much feeling, even in Gu Yangxuan's eyes the sect is merely a tool.

And now, Gu Yangxuan… seems destined to be left behind.

Gu Yinxuan would also decisively discard Gu Yangxuan, even though they are brothers, brothers of a thousand years…

However, Li Che's target this time is Gu Yinxuan.

This treacherous, poisonous one, at the slightest disagreement, can poison even his own sect's disciples to death, a true Poison Saint…

Such a being, if it roams free, is a time bomb for Xixi.

Li Che's power is now great, and he has the means to protect his daughter.

But Li Che is still not omnipotent.

If Xixi were poisoned by something as lethal as the Nine‑Turn Ascending Dragon Stake, could he save her?

Li Che can bind spirits to revive people, but his knowledge of poisons is limited; rescuing someone afflicted by a deadly toxin is simply impossible.

Therefore, Li Che's wariness of the Poison Saint Gu Yinxuan exceeds even that of Gu Yangxuan.

Such a talent must be sent to the Underworld!

No discussion.

Boom—!!!

The twin fists, burning with the Primordial Dragon‑Elephant Flame of the Divine Machine Demon Ape, let out a long howl, with Li Che standing within the demon ape's mind, wearing a Horse‑Face mask, and surrounded by hundreds of All‑Phenomena Mechanism Seals.

Each Mechanism Seal established a connection with his spirit.

With a mere shift of thought, the Divine Machine Demon Ape could be controlled to display a myriad of movements.

It could even project its own divinity, Dao essence, martial arts, and so on through the All‑Phenomena Mechanism Seals.

One could say that the difficulty of controlling such a mechanical beast is extremely high.

However, for Li Che, whose Immortal Craft Dao Fruit has reached lv7, this level of control is utterly effortless.

It must be said…

The emergence of this Tang family divine machine indeed has the potential to change the situation.

Although manipulating such a divine‑realm mechanical beast is not easy, it at least requires Heaven‑Human resonance and perception power of the Heaven‑and‑Earth Soul level.

But such perceptual power can be attained by a War‑Saint and a Divine Embryo.

In other words, a divine embryo that has opened a War Saint and a Divine Transformation, through training, can master and manipulate such divine machines!

Unleash combat power comparable to a War God!

And the most important point...

That is the power Li Che just displayed when he wielded the Divine Machine Demon Ape to blast Gu Yang Xuan's mortal body...

It is not locked by the power of Heaven and Earth's calamities!

In other words, it is not limited by the tiered power of the Three Calamities Nine Tribulations!

In the mortal world where the current Divine Tribulation cannot act at full strength, that is essentially a being standing at the pinnacle!

Whether a Divine Tribulation or a War God, if they provoke the Calamity Wheel to fight, they will be locked by Heaven and Earth's will through the Three Calamities Nine Tribulations, and then face a great disaster.

If they do not trigger the Calamity Wheel... just like Gu Yang Xuan's current fate, his mortal body was brutally smashed.

Gu Yang Xuan is not a War God, merely a Divine Tribulation; his mortal body, though not weak at the topmost pinnacle, still falls far short of a War God.

Boom—!!!

The Divine Machine Demon Ape struck toward Gu Yang Xuan again.

On the other side.

Gu Yin Xuan tried to flee; Li Che's spirit shifted, and the Flipping Sea Nine Infant exploded, turning into countless ink traces, instantly breaking free from the suppression of the Nine‑Turn Ascending Dragon Pillar.

In the next instant, it reconstituted into the Flipping Sea Nine Infant and attacked Gu Yin Xuan!

Rumble—

The Lightning Tribulation fell rapidly, smashing hard onto the Flipping Sea Nine Infant, causing its power to drop considerably.

Yet this Flipping Sea Nine Infant, indifferent to the tribulation lightning bombardment, is far too troublesome for Gu Yin Xuan.

Poisonous yet unkillable, attacks yet ineffective!

This thing is literally heaven‑itself counters him!

Gu Yin Xuan's skin flapped restlessly, and he also sensed something amiss.

This Underworld...

... doesn't even want to let him go!

Is it planning to keep him here?!

"Sir, I, Gu Yin Xuan, have been in seclusion for a thousand years, feigning death for a thousand years; we seem to have no grudges, right?"

Gu Yin Xuan again offered the Heavenly Poison Pill, delaying the raging Flipping Sea Nine Infant, but he himself was hit by a wave of impact, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

The Dao essence within him surged continuously, anger climbing step by step, yet he dared not vent or release it.

The third tribulation of the First Disaster Realm awaits him, and he is uncertain he can survive that calamity.

So, he must endure.

The main point is...

He felt an extremely intense threat.

Above that ink‑colored city, a towering figure stood there, back to all beings, with violet flames burning atop its head.

Just standing there, a terrifying tribulation force seemed ready to overturn heaven and earth itself.

Gu Yin Xuan's complexion turned extremely grim...

The Underworld, and also masters!

What kind of Underworld force has emerged here?

A terrifying mad beast comparable to the power of the First Disaster Second Tribulation Realm, and a mechanical beast comparable to a War God, now...

On the city wall still stood a presence whose mere aura of pressure made him feel horror...

The violet fire burned quietly, evidently a dreadful tribulation flame.

Amid the blaze, space warped, as if a terrifying beast roared within.

Gu Yin Xuan's face turned exceedingly grim; his shout was also directed at the being standing on the city wall.

"Underworld Ghost Emperor!"

In the distance, Gu Yang Xuan exclaimed in horror.

Underworld Ghost Emperor?

Gu Yin Xuan mulled over the name in his mind; a thousand years ago, such a person did not exist.

"Sir, what exactly do you mean?"

"Really want to kill the fish and break the net?"

Gu Yin Xuan said in a deep voice.

Yet the Underworld Ghost Emperor still faced away from him, turned his back on all beings.

"Kill you."

A faint voice, lingering through heaven and earth.

Gu Yin Xuan's expression instantly sank to the extreme; is this… nothing left to discuss?

Roar—!!!

The Flipping Sea Nine Infant roared, its nine heads flailing wildly, tribulation lightning crashed down, yet the Nine Infant pressed on, continuing its charge.

Creek—creek—...

The gates of Fengdu in the Underworld thundered open.

Pitch‑black, profound, boundless cold, like a gate leading to death.

"The Gate of Fengdu has opened; you want to live?"

"Within Fengdu lies a small pocket heaven, unbound by tribulation forces; if you wish to live, step in and fight your way out."

The faint voice came from the silhouette of the Underworld Ghost Emperor, whose back faced all beings.

Gu Yin Xuan's eyes narrowed; he looked toward that unfathomably deep portal…

Entered this city…

Can I still live?

Gu Yin Xuan was icily cold to the extreme; the poison specialist, he seemed to have met a colossal nemesis—this mad beast… it was too restraining for him.

Even a Demon Emperor, as long as it's a living being, can be poisoned…

But this mad beast, like a dumbass, swallowed a Nine-turn Ascending Dragon Pillar whole, and suffered nothing.

Yet I must admit, entangled by this mad beast, he might truly not be able to escape…

The mortal world is not a labyrinth; he cannot free his limbs.

And this mad, stupid beast, bearing thunder to kill him, he only has the role of taking the blows.

"Ah!"

Gu Yang Xuan, however, let out a roar.

He also discerned the current situation…

The Underworld and the court had joined forces; Xie Yunshen had sabotaged their Heavenly Dan Divine Sect, the purpose obvious—to seize the sect's fortune.

The two of them could no longer protect the Heavenly Dan Divine Sect's fortune.

Therefore, Gu Yang Xuan does not want to die.

He wants to live!

His flesh may be shattered, but he still has his Heaven-and-Earth Dao soul; with his alchemy, as long as he finds enough human medicine, reconstituting a body is no problem.

He just doesn't want to die!

Kill!

Gu Yang Xuan's eyes turned crimson; in the mortal world he was too stifled, unable to fully unleash his power, forced to the point where his flesh was hammered to pieces…

Kill!

Boom—!!!

Gu Yang Xuan first transformed into a flash of light, charging toward the Underworld's open Fengdu gate.

Gu Yin Xuan glanced at Gu Yang Xuan and muttered under his breath, "Foolish."

Went in and still want to get out?

Even if you reach that small pocket realm and can fully release your cultivation, thereby triggering the Calamity Wheel, so what?

But feeling the Divine Machine Demon Ape's sweep, the mad beast's long howl, and the Underworld Ghost Emperor standing atop the city, turned his back on him…

In the distance, the court's side had Divine Calamity Gu Qianchi.

He seemed… also without a choice.

A gamble still leaves a sliver of chance.

Staying in the mortal world would only invite siege and eventual extinction!

"Damn it! I won't believe that poison can't kill you!"

Gu Yin Xuan was also forced into anger.

The next moment, with no other option, a headlong charge plunged into that Underworld Fengdu.

At the same time.

With a bang, the Flipping Sea Nine Infant exploded and vanished.

The Divine Machine Demon Ape roared and also surged into Fengdu.

Atop the city wall.

Purple fire burned.

The Ghost Emperor slowly turned; on his golden skull, a faint snicker seemed to appear.

"Welcome, to the Underworld."

…

…

Whirr—

Ink-colored rain kept pouring, continuously falling.

The ink-colored city, everything was ink-colored, as if in this world black was the sole main theme.

Gu Yang Xuan and Gu Yin Xuan appeared here, feeling this small pocket realm; Gu Yin Xuan's complexion instantly darkened.

Tenacious, majestic, stable…

This small pocket realm… too stable!

"At least it's a small pocket realm of a Divine Calamity cultivator of the One-Disaster Three-Calamities realm!"

Whether the small pocket realm is stable or not can reveal the owner's cultivation and strength.

Gu Yin Xuan's heart sank slightly.

The next moment, a roar sounded; countless ink-colored raindrops grew even more massive, as if the heavens gathered into a huge ink-colored torrent, and the Flipping Sea Nine Infant reappeared!

"Damn you, wretched beast!"

Gu Yin Xuan spread his arms, clenched his five fingers, and a seven-colored long sword steeped in seven-hued lethal poison materialized in his hand.

Behind him, the Calamity Wheel instantly manifested—one disaster, two calamities!

Boom—

"Kill!"

Gu Yin Xuan said little; he knew that being inside this city, the only thing to do now was to kill, to carve a bloody path.

As long as he can win, survive, and walk out of this city…

Now we can escape!

Bang—!!!

Gu Yin Xuan and Fan Hai Jiu Ying's relentless duel merged, their hands spewing multicolored poisonous mist continuously; the rainbow sword light shone dreamily brilliant, yet it was filled with chilling deadly toxin.

But the Fan Hai Jiu Ying who emerged from the Ten Evils Diagram truly feared not his deadly toxin.

However, Gu Yin Xuan didn't care; in the life‑or‑death struggle, he was not the slightest careless.

Boom—!!!

A terrifying eruption, booming and exploding!

The two beings at the One Calamity, Two Tribulation realm unleashed their full power without reservation, a dreadful resonant force that shattered the ground of Ink City into pieces, countless fissures crisscrossing.

Fan Hai Jiu Ying let out a long howl; two ferocious ink‑colored dragon heads roared, flesh wings flapped, fierce wind raged, a swipe of dragon claw shattered the very space!

Without the restriction of Heaven and Earth calamities, Fan Hai Jiu Ying grew even more insane!

On the other side…

Gu Yang Xuan entered this small pocket heaven and immediately triggered the Calamity Wheel.

"Underworld Horse‑Faced!"

"Die!"

Boom—!!!

The Calamity Wheel hovered behind Gu Yang Xuan; its One Calamity, One Tribulation power, fully unleashed, gave him supreme confidence. Then…

There was no after…

A sharp, spear‑like dust‑sweeping blade pierced the chest of his remaining Heaven and Earth Dao Soul.

Terrifying Dao Essence and Calamity power burst forth!

"Zhao Beidou?!"

Gu Yang Xuan's Heaven and Earth Dao Soul was gravely wounded; Dao Essence and divinity kept draining…

He stared in disbelief as Zhao Beidou silently appeared behind him, launching a surprise attack…

Most importantly, he hadn't even noticed the Divine Calamity Zhao Beidou appearing behind him!

The Divine Machine Demon Ape roared, and under its control delivered another crushing punch.

Zhao Beidou smiled faintly, snapped his five fingers, the dust‑sweeper curled into a sharp spear and thrust out again.

Gu Yang Xuan's entire body saw Dao Essence dissipating…

Reading the original text!

He knows.

He's finished.

He will die here, no chance of survival.

Bang—

A terrifying attack poured down, his flesh exploded, and with his Heaven and Earth Dao Soul ambushed, the Calamity Wheel shattered…

Gu Yang Xuan, unwilling,

was brutally blown to pieces!

Bang—!!!

When the terrifying blast erupted, Gu Yin Xuan, fighting Fan Hai Jiu Ying fiercely in the distance, felt a slight tremor in his heart.

He turned his head and saw Gu Yang Xuan, unwilling, being brutally blown apart.

Brothers for millennia, today… finally stepped into death.

"Ten thousand years of divine tide have surged; now the divine tide of this era has finally begun. Under the divine tide… the divine calamity cannot be escaped and will ultimately lead to death."

A hint of sorrow flickered on Gu Yin Xuan's gaunt face.

But at that moment, there was no time for grief; his garments suddenly tore apart, revealing his emaciated flesh.

Yet his body was studded with countless poison pills.

Those poison pills displayed a variety of colors.

"Hundred‑Poison Pill Divine Body!"

Gu Yin Xuan's eyes softly scanned everyone in Fengdu.

Zhao Beidou, who killed Gu Yang Xuan, the Horse‑Faced hidden within the Divine Machine, the insanely raging Fan Hai Jiu Ying, and the Underworld Ghost Emperor standing atop the black building, still turned his back on him.

Gu Yin Xuan naturally knew that entering this small pocket heaven would be dangerous.

But the outside world, the mortal realm, is actually more perilous; at least within this pocket heaven, he can unleash and explode without restraint!

Come on!

With a long howl, a terrifyingly potent Dao Essence surged like a tide at this moment—it was the Way of the Poison Pill!

This Poison Saint is one who has taken the Way of Poison to its pinnacle!

Rolling poisonous mist surged!

The next moment, five phantom poison beasts materialized behind Gu Yin Xuan!

An enormous toad, a centipede with countless legs, a hook‑shaped razor‑sharp poison scorpion, and a deadly poison snake…

Gu Yin Xuan hovered surrounded by the five phantom poison beasts, as if his whole being floated within the poisonous mist.

Even faintly, Li Che sensed the aura of a temple from those five poison beasts.

Gu Yin Xuan had actually turned the five temple deities into poison!

Boom—!!!

These five poison beasts surprisingly each possessed the power of the One Calamity, One Tribulation realm!

Amazingly, with his own strength alone, he withstood the onslaught of the Fan Hai Jiu Ying formed by the Old Dragon God, Zhao Beidou, and the Divine Machine Demon Ape!

I have to admit, this Poison Saint who can leave a legend truly does have some tricks.

Whah whah whah whah whah whah—

Ink rain continuously pours from the high sky, falling down at high speed.

Li Che spreads his five fingers wide, and instantly a series of primal Dragon Elephant Flames flicker, spewing a terrifying aura of calamity.

Boom—!

The blaze above his head flares up, the Golden Skull finally turns, staring directly at Gu Yin Xuan, who is locked in a blood battle with the three great realm forces under Li Che.

Gu Yin Xuan also sees Li Che, his eyes narrowing slightly.

The Golden Skull is utterly cold, and in its hollow eyes seem endless wailing, howling souls.

A dangerous aura suddenly makes Gu Yin Xuan's hair stand on end.

But the Underworld Ghost Emperor slowly lifts his hand, pointing far toward the direction where he stands.

The Five Poison Mist surrounding him begins to tremble violently.

Gu Yin Xuan's expression changes dramatically!

His Hundred Poison Pill Divine Body is his greatest trump card, housing five Temple Gods he has refined, and now those five Temple Gods…

Tremble!

The Underworld Ghost Emperor fixes his skull eyes on him.

Then, he speaks slowly.

Two voices that could freeze Gu Yin Xuan's soul echo softly across heaven and earth.

'Bind the deity.'

A deep voice comes from Li Che, whose mask is the Dragon Elephant Flame, sounding like the rolling waters of the Yellow Springs in the Nine Abyss, gurgling with cold white bones and bubbling with a boiling, cracking sound.

Splash splash splash—

The clanging of chains rings incessantly.

A raging wind rises across heaven and earth, howling and ravaging, while one black current after another soars and drifts within this ink-colored city.

Gradually, these black currents intertwine.

The decayed, gray netherworld seems to have gray currents solidify, slowly merging into a twisted figure.

When he sees that figure, Gu Yin Xuan's scalp feels as if it explodes.

His eyes cannot help but flash an intensely dense color of disbelief!

'You—'

Because the gray currents that intertwined have formed the resurrected Gu Yang Xuan!

How is this possible?!

Gu Yin Xuan had earlier been grieving, mourning his brother of a thousand years, who died this morning.

And then Gu Yang Xuan revived!

The revived Gu Yang Xuan says little, his mind receiving the information, instantly understanding the situation.

He also knows who he should now submit to.

Facing life and death, Gu Yang Xuan naturally chooses to submit.

Boom—!!!

Gu Yang Xuan hesitates not a moment, suddenly lunges at Gu Yin Xuan!

Gu Yin Xuan's pressure keeps mounting.

He was already being suppressed fighting three opponents, after all that Fanhai Nine Infant fears not his poison and is extremely hard to deal with.

Now add Gu Yang Xuan, who knows him especially well…

Gu Yin Xuan feels the pressure so great he can barely breathe.

But this…

Seems not over yet.

Gu Yin Xuan suddenly lifts his head, and a chilling sound again rings in his ears.

In the Golden Skull eyes of the Underworld Ghost Emperor, burning with violet fire, endless faint light bursts forth.

'Summon deity…'

Summon deity?!

When that voice erupts in his ears, Gu Yin Xuan's whole body trembles violently.

The next moment…

The five Temple Gods he refined into his body seem to emit an extremely mournful sound.

The Five Poison Mist driven by his Hundred Poison Pill Divine Body begins to fragment, the five poisonous entities explode as if their souls were drawn out, losing their support.

They instantly burst into pieces.

Even the souls of the five Temple Gods he clearly refined and merged into his body are forcibly ripped from him.

Puff—

Gu Yin Xuan loses control of the Five Poison…

Bang—!!!

A colossal ink-colored dragon claw slams down, striking him hard; Gu Yin Xuan feels his flesh as if it will completely explode.

Boom boom boom boom—

Attacks from the Divine Machine Demon Ape, Gu Yang Xuan, Zhao Beidou and other strong ones also rain down!

Gu Yin Xuan, bloodied continuously, lets out a final wretched laugh.

'Let's die together! Poison will overturn you!'

Even at the final moment.

Gu Yin Xuan also never gave up his poison path; he still wanted to try using poison, to see if he could poison these guys.

Yet, he still failed…

These guys are immune to a hundred poisons!

Gu Yin Xuan, seeing the revived Gu Yang Xuan, also seemed to guess something…

Immune to a hundred poisons…

Is it because they are already dead?

The Underworld Ghost Emperor…

The dead are at his disposal?!

Just thinking about it is terrifying.

Gu Yin Xuan once thought his own poison was already extremely vicious.

But now he discovers that the world actually has methods even more vicious than his!

This Underworld Ghost Emperor is more poisonous than he is!

"The Ten Thousand Year Divine Tide is approaching… alas, I missed it again… I missed the previous Divine Tide, and now this one too… born at the wrong time, born at the wrong time!"

Gu Yin Xuan let out a grim laugh.

The next moment.

His whole body exploded, terrifying energy burst forth, and in Mo Cheng it seemed to erupt a multicolored poison‑mushroom cloud!

Fan Hai Jiu Ying let out a long howl; the two ferocious dragon heads suddenly opened their mouths and gulped down.

Instantly, the enormous poison‑mushroom cloud was completely swallowed.

And Fan Hai Jiu Ying, at that moment, seemed to have gained a poison‑mist breath ability.

Gu Yin Xuan died.

Killed by a siege.

His mortal body burst, the Dao soul of heaven and earth shattered, utterly dead.

Li Che never acted from beginning to end, not because he pretended to be a master, but because Li Che dared not.

Poison Saint… Li Che still feared him.

Although he had once swallowed a detox pill made from Gu Changqing with sugar, that was only the detox pill of the Nine‑turn Ascending Dragon Pill.

Facing the Poison Saint's poison mist, Li Che also did not know whether it was effective.

Gu Yin Xuan was strong; at least his extremely vicious Five Poison Divine Mist was already terrifying.

Unfortunately, the opponent Li Che arranged for him had not a single living creature.

They were not at all afraid of lethal poison invasion.

Within the entire Mo Cheng Feng Du, the only living person was Li Che.

And Li Che…

By not confronting the toxins directly, he naturally eliminated the risk of poisoning.

Upon seeing Gu Yin Xuan's terrifying and insidious nature, Li Che became increasingly convinced that choosing to kill Gu Yin Xuan was the right decision.

Such a being, if under Gu Yang Xuan's manipulation and set its sights on his daughter…

It would be a nightmare‑like existence.

Using poison in this way, besides surrounding him with Binding Spirit, Ink Splash Ten Fiends and other dead things, Li Che had no guaranteed winning strategy in normal combat.

Therefore, Gu Yin Xuan had to be eliminated, at least turned into an ally.

Only then would Li Che feel at ease.

After perceiving that the Five Poison Divine Mist of Gu Yin Xuan had merged with the souls of five Temple Gods, Li Che's mind conceived the idea of summoning gods.

As long as they are Temple Gods…

All can be summoned!

Sure enough, the Temple God souls were summoned away by Li Che, and Gu Yin Xuan's Five Poison Divine Mist, having lost the support of the Temple Gods, began to collapse completely.

The souls of the five Temple Gods floated within Mo Cheng Feng Du.

Their cries echoed continuously, hovering around Li Che's purple fire, making Li Che appear even more terrifying.

Inside Feng Du, it gradually quieted down.

He placed his toe tip down.

Li Che's body flickered and appeared before the slain body of Gu Yin Xuan.

Although the poison mist had been completely devoured by the Nine‑infant, the air still lingered with a trace of toxicity; Li Che's Dao fire burned and twisted around him, causing all nearby poison mist to sizzle and be incinerated.

Gu Yin Xuan was a very cold‑blooded person.

He killed without blinking, even his own disciples of the Heaven Pill Divine Sect; he would simply poison‑kill them, and even wanted to poison‑overturn the entire Guangling Dao City.

He spread poison without caring about anyone's life or death.

Such a being, bearing a grudge against him, if it set its sights on Xixi, would truly make Li Che lose appetite and be unable to sit still.

Fortunately…

Now, he has been killed.

Moreover, such a poison talent, from now on, will be at his disposal!

This kind of poison talent, if he becomes one of his own, will bring an unprecedented sense of peace.

Zhao Beidou and Gu Yang Xuan stood respectfully beside Li Che.

Fan Hai Jiu Ying and Shen Ji Mo Yuan, two massive beings, also stood beside Li Che, like towering mountains, utterly terrifying.

Black robes fluttered wildly, and the purple fire swayed endlessly in the wind.

Li Che stared at Gu Yin Xuan's shattered corpse…

Beneath the golden skull, the eyes flickered with a dim light.

Qitian Cheng has opened, and the inheritance of Qitian Temple is about to emerge…

Qitian Cheng, where the heroes of the world gather…

It is certainly extremely dangerous.

Li Che has lived as if treading on thin ice, to face the heroes.

Having a few fiercely loyal heroes of his own is also quite normal, right?!

Wha—Wha—Wha—Wha—

Ink‑colored rain fell wildly and angrily, roaring as it exploded upon the ground.

Li Che stood before Gu Yin Xuan's corpse.

"You don't want to miss the Ten‑Thousand‑Year Divine Tide?"

"Then submit to me…"

"I'll take you to see the Ten‑Thousand‑Era Divine Tide."

"Binding God—"
