Chapter 114: with translation of chapter title

Gu Lin Tian gestured, and that mass of energy flew into his hand, which he casually sealed into a jade bottle.

"Although most of it was blasted away by the ancestor's power, the remainder should still be no weaker than a peak half-immortal, just a bit dirty—perfect for feeding the mountain guardian spirit beast."

He said offhandedly, as if what he had just killed wasn't a true immortal but a giant fly.

The entire venue fell dead silent.

In the distance, the four ancient gods—Lava, Pestilence, Darkness, and Thousand-Eyes.

At this moment they were utterly terrified.

They still tightly gripped the half-immortal artifacts given by the black-robed emissary, but now these weapons in their hands were scorching hot, like red-hot branding irons.

Run!

This was the only thought in their minds.

"Even the emissary sir was beaten to death in two blows; we locals with only Heavenly Emperor realm strength—are we just here to be toothpick fodder?"

The four ancient gods acted in unison, splitting into four directions, burning their divinity as they fled madly.

"Can they get away?"

Gu Yuan stood below, watching those four streams of light, and curled his lip.

Hearing that, Gu Xuan Ce smiled elegantly:

"As the young master said, since they've come, let them all stay—perfect, the Refining God Pool still lacks a few main array eyes."

Having said that, he flicked his finger lightly.

"Activate the formation."

Hum—

Beneath the land spanning a million li, countless intricate array patterns suddenly lit up.

Even earlier, while everyone was watching the battle.

This Heavenly Emperor of array dao had already silently laid down a trapping-and-killing great array.

Four massive light curtains shot up into the sky, directly sealing off the four ancient gods' escape routes.

"No! I am an immortal god! You cannot kill me!"

The Lava Ancient God slammed headfirst into the light curtain, his head bursting and bleeding, howling desperately.

"God?"

Gu Lin Jiang stepped forward, instantly appearing behind the Lava Ancient God, his immortal artifact gauntlets back in his hand, and he grabbed the god's neck in one motion.

"Before the Gu Family, there are no gods."

Crack!

A crisp sound.

The Lava Ancient God's neck was snapped outright, and the divinity within his body was forcibly extracted by a domineering force.

On the other side.

Jiang Rou walked through the void, each step she took causing a pure white lotus to bloom.

Those lotuses looked fragile, yet they easily pierced the shadowy bodies of the Dark Walkers, pinning them dead in the void.

As for the Pestilence Lord and the Thousand-Eyed Divine Sovereign.

They were tightly trapped by Gu Xuan Ce's great array, as myriad sword qi slashed down, instantly turning into a rain of blood across the sky.

In less than the time it takes to finish half a cup of tea.

The four ancient gods who once ruled this world all fell.

Plus the three previously slain instantly by the ancestor's talisman.

The seven great ancient gods of the Twilight Divine Realm are now completely wiped out.

Between heaven and earth, the gloomy yellow twilight aura that had suppressed everything for hundreds of millions of years began to rapidly dissipate.

In its place arose a fresh, newborn clear qi.

"It's over."

Gu Yuan stretched lazily, looking at the spoils littering the ground, his mood excellent.

This battle.

Not only did we take down a peak true immortal boss, dropping a heap of equipment and origin essence.

And we also cleared out the world's malignant tumor as a side note.

Most importantly…

He looked toward the distant black divine mountain.

There, the divinity of the supreme god of slaughter hovered silently, emitting an alluring luster.

That is the greatest gain of this trip!

"Dad, that thing belongs to you."

Gu Yuan pointed at the divinity, chuckling, "Take it back to give to Grandfather; maybe if he's pleased he'll reward you with something nice."

Gu Lin Tian dispelled his triple-body technique.

The three Gu Lin Tians looked at their son, their eyes full of indulgence.

"You little brat, you really aren't afraid of Grandfather beating me, are you?"

Although he said that with his mouth, he still reached out, drawing the supreme divinity into his hand and carefully sealing it away.

This is crucial for Father's breakthrough to Immortal King.

Allowing no margin for error.

"What's the big deal? Anyway, Dad, you have three of them—just take turns getting beaten."

The three Gu Lin Tians exchanged a glance: "……"

It seems somewhat reasonable.

He hadn't thought of it before.

He endured all those beatings for nothing.

Past self and future self exchanged a glance, wordlessly regarding each other.

Actually, they had thought of it long ago; they just deliberately didn't tell the present self, i. e., the main body.

It can't be that all the good things fall on the present self while the bad things get them beaten together.

"Alright, after the fight we're done."

Gu Lin Tian waved his hand, issuing an order to the Gu Family army behind him that could no longer be restrained.

"Everyone, hear the order!"

"Form teams of a hundred, spread out, clean up the remaining evil gods, and collect divine spark resources."

"Remember, wherever we pass, I want this world to change its surname to Gu!"

"Let those humans raised like livestock know who their true savior is!"

"Yes!!!"

Over a hundred Supremes and Sages roared in unison, shaking the Nine Heavens.

They turned into streaks of flowing light, pouncing like wolves and tigers onto this world that had just lost its master.

Meanwhile, Gu Lin Tian's other two strands—past self and future self—first escorted the Supreme God's divine spark back to the Primeval Immortal Realm.

The future self needs to oversee the Gu Family, while the past self, after this single battle, must formally enter the 20th-level True Immortal Realm.

However, because the main body has already broken through, the two incarnations don't need to undergo tribulation when they break through.

As for the remaining evil gods of the Twilight God Realm,

the true apocalypse has only just begun.

……

……

At Gu Lin Tian's command, the entire Gu Family expedition force, like a precise war machine, instantly began operating at high speed.

Led by three Heavenly Emperors, with fifteen Supremes as the core and over a hundred Supreme Sage strongers as the vanguard, they scattered into more than ten teams.

Turning into streaks of flowing light, they set out from the Twilight Forbidden Land, sweeping toward all corners of the God Realm.

Their goal is only one——purification!

Because Gu Yuan, via formation sound transmission, points out to each squad where to sweep.

Wherever they pass, whether it's an evil god occupying a region and throwing its weight around,

or those ancient god remnants that proclaim themselves lofty, treating all beings as straw dogs, or those lackeys in human skin corrupted by the Gui Xu God Sect,

or evil gods lurking in the void, chaos, or depths of ten thousand, a hundred thousand meters—before the Gu Family's crushing force, they are all as fragile as clay pots and tiles, unable to withstand a single blow.

In the southern God Realm lies a deadly expanse covered by a toxic swamp.

This is the former divine kingdom of the Plague Lord; even though the ancient gods have fallen, tens of thousands of plague apostles and various toxic monsters still hold sway here.

Yet today, this place has received a group of uninvited guests.

"Hahaha! Satisfying! Satisfying!"

Gu Zhan wields a mountain-splitting giant axe, his whole body bathed in golden qi and blood, like an invincible war god.

Each of his axe swings brings forth a terrifying blade of light tens of thousands of feet long, evaporating vast swaths of swamp and the monsters within.

Behind him, more than ten Gu Family Supreme Sage Elders form a battle array, like a sharp spear thrusting deep into the heart of the monster army.

"These little things offer no challenge to kill."

Gu Zhan's axe splits a deadly toxic nine-headed snake comparable to a 16th-level being in half; he smacks his lips, somewhat unsatisfied.

"No more talk, hurry up and work!"

Not far away, Gu Xue Dao holds a blood-colored war spear.

Each thrust precisely pierces the skull of a powerful monster, devouring its soul and flesh essence entirely.

His killing efficiency is several times greater than Gu Zhan's.

"I know, I know, no fun at all."

Gu Zhan mutters a remark, yet his hand movements don't slow in the slightest.

Meanwhile, in another mountain range shrouded in eternal night, the two Heavenly Emperors Gu Lin Jiang and Gu Xuan Ce appear more relaxed and carefree.

"Formation rise, Star Fall!"

Gu Xuan Ce flicks his finger, and a star formation great array covering the entire mountain range roars into operation.

The next moment, above the Heavenly Dome, countless brilliant stars condensed from the formation, like a meteor shower, drag long tails of flame and crash down violently.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each falling star equals the full-force strike of an 18th-level Supreme.

Under this heaven‑shattering, earth‑destroying assault, the remnants of the Dark Walkers lurking in the mountain range don't even have time to let out a wail before they are pulverized into flying ash.

"Xuan Ce, your commotion is too big."

Gu Lin Jiang stands to the side, somewhat helplessly saying,

"The family head ordered us to clean up, not to demolish."

"Cough cough, just a slip of the hand, just a slip of the hand."

Gu Xuan Ce gives an embarrassed smile and quickly withdraws the formation.

At the same time, similar scenes are playing out in every corner of the God Realm.

The Gu Family's powerhouses, in an almost crushing manner, efficiently and ruthlessly carry out the cleansing mission.

And as these dark forces entrenched throughout the God Realm are eradicated one by one,

Those human survivors who had been enslaved by them for countless ages also finally welcomed the long-awaited liberation.
