Chapter 186: Dao-Proving Immortal King!

The moment the chaos spirit stone fragment fell into Gu Cangsheng's hand, the originally extremely violent immortal king aura around him strangely fell silent.

Li Hentian's eyes, icy to the bone, stirred up a towering wave for the first time the instant he saw the stone clearly.

This sword king, who had lived through countless eons and was accustomed to all heavenly treasures, felt his heart skip a beat at this moment.

That is… primordial chaos power?

Li Hentian's words carried a dry hoarseness; he could sense that the seemingly ordinary stone contained a logic surpassing the three thousand great Dao.

It is the 'One' before heaven and earth were split, the origin of all things' evolution.

The Faceless Immortal King could not bear it either; the dark vortex on his face shrank violently, the river of countless bones behind him began to collapse, and countless souls, upon sensing that pure creation aura, had their resentment washed away instantly, turning to nothing.

"A creation cornerstone! How could such a thing possibly appear in the hands of a lowly ant from the lower realm!"

The Faceless Immortal King's voice was hoarse as if rubbed on sandpaper, revealing a mad greed.

He no longer cared about any grudge with the Netherworld Sovereign, nor about the dignity of an immortal king.

At this moment, he only wanted to snatch that stone away.

With this, he would instantly become the supreme ruler among immortal kings.

"Hand it over to this seat!"

The Faceless Immortal King roared, the bone spear condensed from the river of bones surged, its tip bursting with black light capable of corroding the origin of the great universe, aiming straight for Gu Cangsheng's palm.

Li Hentian was not lagging behind either.

His arrogance shattered before that stone; a drop of origin sword dew instantly turned into a ten-thousand-zhang sword blade, no longer a probe but an all-out strike expending everything this incarnation had.

The two immortal kings went completely mad at this moment.

Gu Cangsheng beheld the two attacks capable of destroying this star field, yet his eyes showed no fear; he reversed his hand and pressed the chaos spirit stone fragment into his own chest.

"Yuan'er, watch closely."

Gu Cangsheng's voice echoed through the starry sky, carrying a sense of desolation and grandeur: "The final layer of the Primordial Immortality Classic is called 'Form Transforms into Chaos'!"

Hum—

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a vibration originating from the source of life.

The moment the chaos spirit stone fragment entered Gu Cangsheng's body, his originally brilliant golden spinal column began to melt.

The golden liquid flowed along the meridians to his limbs, perfectly intertwining with the gray mist emanating from the chaos spirit stone; the origin that Gu Cangsheng had been burning was as if infused with endless fuel—no, it was directly replaced by a higher-dimensional energy.

His flesh began to swell, then rapidly collapsed.

Every inch of skin and every strand of hair underwent countless cycles of fragmentation and recombination.

The sword qi capable of slaying true immortals, when striking the gray mist surrounding Gu Cangsheng, vanished like a mud ox entering the sea—without a sound, leaving no trace.

The Faceless Immortal King's bone spear pierced Gu Cangsheng's chest, yet emitted a piercing metallic screech; under the erosion of the gray mist, the spear tip visibly rotted and weathered, finally turning into a pile of white powder that fell away.

"Impossible!" the Faceless Immortal King shouted in terror.

His withering power was actually being reversed "withered" before his opponent?

Li Hentian's face also turned deathly pale.

His sword, capable of severing karma, now found its connection to himself severed.

Or rather, the dimension Gu Cangsheng now inhabits has no karma at all.

"Immortal King realm… achieved?"

Gu Lin Tian watched from the side, dazzled and bewildered; he could feel his father's aura undergoing a qualitative leap.

This was no ordinary breakthrough.

It was a transcendence from man to heaven.

Above Gu Cangsheng's head, a huge phantom slowly emerged.

The phantom bore the heavens on its back, stepped upon the netherworld, and was surrounded by runes of the three thousand great Dao, yet faintly transcended them.

That is the Immortal King's Dharma Aspect!

Moreover, the condensation level of this Dharma Aspect far surpasses the avatars of Li Hentian and the Faceless Immortal King, and is even more substantial than their true bodies.

"Grandpa, this round… is secure."

Gu Yuan stood aside, rubbing his slightly sore shoulders.

After refining that shattered immortal domain, his body's chaos singularity had initially taken shape, and this fragment fed back to Gu Cangsheng essentially helped Grandpa make up the final shortcoming.

The Primordial Immortality Classic stresses an indestructible flesh, but without a sufficient cornerstone as support, even the strongest flesh is merely rootless wood.

The chaos spirit stone is that most steadfast 'pile'.

"Crack!"

A clear sound rang out from the void.

That was the will of heaven of the Gu Tian Star Realm shattering.

It could not bear the birth of a true immortal king, especially one who takes chaos as foundation and forges a fleshly body to become a Paramount Immortal King.

Gu Cangsheng slowly opened his eyes.

His pupils were no longer murky; instead, a deep gray filled them, within which the birth of stars and the destruction of the universe could be faintly seen.

He merely lifted his hand slightly.

The eternal night canopy that had shrouded the star realm instantly tore like cheap silk, shattering into countless fragments.

Li Hentian's ten-thousand-zhang sword blade, in the moment Gu Cangsheng raised his hand, snapped back, hurling Li Hentian himself tens of thousands of miles away and shattering more than a dozen dead planets.

"Li Hentian, just now you said, who should commit suicide?"

Gu Cangsheng's voice was not loud, yet it seemed to explode directly in the souls' depths of the two immortal kings.

He took a step forward.

This step crossed the bounds of space.

One second ago he was still tens of thousands of li away; the next second, Gu Cangsheng stood before the Faceless Immortal King.

He didn't use any flashy divine abilities; he simply stretched out one hand and grabbed the neck of that demon god phantom.

That corrosive qi, capable of killing a true immortal, erupted in white smoke from Gu Cangsheng's palm, yet it couldn't even burn through a layer of his skin.

"You neither-human-nor-ghost thing, you were having quite a fight just now?"

Gu Cangsheng grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth; that smile, in the Faceless Immortal King's eyes, was more terrifying than a hellish demon.

"Break for this old man...... shatter!"

Gu Cangsheng clenched his five fingers with sudden force.

Boom!

That huge demon god phantom, together with the Faceless Immortal King's avatar, was in that instant pinched into a sky-full of black qi.

Moreover, Gu Cangsheng, following that vague connection, threw a backhand punch into the depths of that black qi rift.

"Ah——!"

From within the distant Fallen Immortal Land came a wail so shrill it reached the extreme of misery.

That was the Faceless Immortal King's true body.

He never expected that the opponent would not only destroy his avatar, but could also, via the interworld passage, directly wound his origin!

One punch, heavily injuring the true body of an ordinary immortal king!

This is at least a Jue Dian Immortal King equal to his own true body!

From a half-step immortal king he leapt to become a Jue Dian Immortal King!

This is too astonishing!

Even one as stunning as him.

Back then he was merely at the peak of an ordinary immortal king, spending millions of years, gradually cultivating to the level of a Jue Dian Immortal King!

"Gu Cangsheng...... what exactly are you, a monster?"

Li Hentian asked through gritted teeth.

Gu Cangsheng turned his head, brushed off the black dust on his hand, and said calmly: "I told you, I am your grandfather."

"Now it's your turn."
