Chapter 315: Extinction Envoy? Selfish and Self-Serving

In the Primordial Celestial Realm, the back mountain of the Gu Family's divine island.

A gentle breeze warmed the purple bamboo forest.

Gu Cangsheng leaned on a vine chair, holding a handful of roasted spirit sunflower seeds in his hand.

He cracked one open, rolled the seed kernel with his tongue, and casually spat the husk onto the muddy ground beside his foot.

Just a heartbeat earlier, he sensed his grandson Gu Yuan drawing power through the bloodline karmic link.

Such things the grandfather and grandson had done more than once; Gu Cangsheng had always kept the supply open.

But as he traced back along that gray‑purple chaotic karmic thread, he smelled a nauseating sour rot.

It was the stench unique to the Extinction Envoy.

Gu Cangsheng clapped his hands, stood up, and brushed the remnants off the front of his robe.

He did not summon the Chaotic Immortal Bell, nor don any battle armor; wearing only a pair of straw sandals, he grasped the invisible karmic thread with one hand and yanked it backward forcefully.

Under his pull, the spatial dimension collapsed into an irregular fissure.

Gu Cangsheng lifted his foot and stepped inside.

……

……

Beyond the endless spacetime.

Zang Tian Ge 48th Sub-pavilion Headquarters.

Heavenly Revelation Immortal King sat upon a throne piled with the skulls of countless beings, finished hurling harsh words at Gu Yuan through a lingering soul conduit, and was about to sever the link while plotting the descent of his true form.

Suddenly.

The dome above the head inexplicably sank down.

There was no formation warning, no spatial fluctuation. The defensive barrier, personally set up by the Jue Dian Immortal King and claimed to withstand a giant's strike, was like a cheap window paper, pierced from the outside with a single footstep.

A crudely woven straw sandal sole was firmly stamped in the exact center of the Heavenly Revelation Immortal King's view.

Heavenly Revelation Immortal King crossed his arms, and the primal power of the Jue Dian Immortal King within him rose upward without reservation.

The gray‑purple chaotic law collided with the dark‑crimson Extinction power, and the supporting columns of the great hall turned to dust under the shockwave, while the skulls around the throne shattered into fragments.

Gu Cangsheng used the reaction force to flip in midair, landing steadily in the ruined center of the hall.

He scratched his ear and glanced at the Heavenly Revelation Immortal King, whose arms were cracked from the stomp and who kept retreating.

"Was that just you thinking about my grandson's tree just now?"

Heavenly Revelation Immortal King steadied himself, his internal qi and blood roiled, and the excruciating pain in his arms made him realize the visitor was no friend.

Gu Cangsheng sneered, pushed off his foot, and transformed into a gray‑purple streak of light that surged forward.

He needed no weapon; his fists were the finest treasure.

The Chaotic Undying Golden Body operated at its limit; each punch carried the crushing weight of ages.

Heavenly Revelation Immortal King was forced to fight; the two engaged in close‑quarters combat among the hall's ruins, exchanging thousands of blows in a few breaths. The king's protective aura was pocked and dented, and black blood constantly seeped from his mouth.

Just as Gu Cangsheng prepared to pierce the Heavenly Revelation Immortal King's chest with a single punch, three overwhelming auras descended from the outer hall.

Three Immortal Kings.

"Heavenly Revelation, how did your domain attract such a bane star?" Butcher Immortal King crossed his arms, his tone tinged with schadenfreude.

"Enough chatter! This person follows the Chaotic Dao and harbors a great hidden secret! Let's strike together to suppress him!" Heavenly Revelation Immortal King gasped, hurriedly throwing a lure.

The four Immortal Kings simultaneously released their pressure, causing the laws of the entire star domain to stall under this force.

Any ordinary Jue Dian Immortal King would have already plotted an escape in the face of such a display.

Gu Cangsheng, however, halted his movement and surveyed the surroundings.

He did not rush to act, but rather examined the four's positions with keen interest.

Blood Butcher and Withered Bone verbally agreed enthusiastically, yet silently stepped back half a pace, each taking a stance that allowed both attack and retreat.

Ethereal Shadow, though having blocked the rear, circulated his magical energy extremely restrained, clearly committing only a fraction of his strength, ready to shift with the wind.

Only Heavenly Revelation Immortal King stood at the front, frantically urging his primal power.

Gu Cangsheng laughed with amusement.

"What do they think I am, a solid iron slab?"

Gu Cangsheng spat,

"A bunch of dogs whose faces and hearts don't match. See meat, they want to eat; see a blade, they want to retreat."

Back in the Great World of Ten Thousand Herbs, when he slew the Dusk Immortal King, the faceless, thousand‑mouth group behaved the same way.

These Extinction Envoys only engage in selfish, harmful schemes, their very bones etched with selfishness. Expecting them to share life and death? Dream on.

Heavenly Revelation Immortal King sensed his comrades' lethargy, fuming as he shouted, "What are you still waiting for! Really waiting for him to break us one by one!"

Butcher Immortal King leisurely summoned a blood‑colored curved blade, symbolically slicing a blade aura, "Brother Heavenly Revelation, don't panic; we'll sweep the formation for you right here."

Gu Cangsheng was too lazy to listen to their bickering.

He saw through their calculations at a glance— they were eager to have Heavenly Revelation beaten half to death so they could, under the guise of righteousness, divide his Dao fruit and territory.

"Since you all love a drama, stay farther away and watch."

Gu Cangsheng clasped his hands together, and the chaotic primal source within him erupted without reservation.

Gray‑purple light radiated from him, expanding outward at breakneck speed, forming a chaotic cage spanning tens of thousands of feet.

The cage precisely enclosed the Heavenly Revelation Immortal King, yet deliberately kept Blood Butcher, Withered Bone, and Ethereal Shadow outside.

It was clearly a one‑on‑one death match.

The three Immortal Kings outside the cage exchanged glances, none intending to break the cage. Withered Bone even sheathed his white bone staff, leisurely observing the interior.

"You bunch of beasts!" Heavenly Revelation Immortal King roared in despair.

Gu Cangsheng pinched his finger joints, producing a crisp crack.

He gazed at the lone, unaided Heaven-Initiating Immortal King, cracked a grin, and flashed his stark white teeth.

I haven't slain an Immortal King in ages!

……

……

On the other side.

Heavenly Pivot Source Realm.

A bronze gate woven from pure Dao laws appeared out of nowhere.

The gate swung open; Gu Zhan lifted the massive axe blended with immortal gold scraps and was the first to step out.

His robust muscles suffused with a pale gold immortal divinity as he glanced at the scrap copper and iron, wrinkling his nose in disdain.

"Young master, the spiritual energy here is too thin—even I, Old Zhan, feel like I'm gritting my teeth just to breathe." Gu Zhan complained gruffly.

Close behind him, Gu Xue Dao stepped out in a red robe, his blood-colored long blade resting on his shoulder.

Gu Linjiang, Gu Zhangfeng, Gu Yunlan, and the other high-ranking Gu Family warriors entered in single file.

The originally spacious air-raid shelter was stuffed full by this group of supreme, true-immortal-level bigwigs; just their natural aura made the sky of the Heavenly Pivot Source Realm seem to collapse several dimensions.

Iron Slayer stood in the corner, head bowed so low he hardly dared to breathe.

He had thought Gu Yuan and Gu Xuan Ce were the pinnacle of power in this world, never imagining they had an entire monster legion behind them.

Gu Yuan sat on the white jade chair, his fingertips tapping the armrest, issuing orders in an orderly fashion.

"Uncle Zhan, Uncle Xue Dao, take your men to purge the forty-nine city conglomerate remnants. Show no mercy to any resistance. Uncle Linjiang, you are to absorb those chosen by the Heavenly Dao shards, re-registering them according to Gu Family rules. Those who comply prosper; those who defy are abolished."

Understood!

Gu Zhan and the others received the order, turning into streams of light that shot out of the air-raid shelter, rushing to their respective battlefields.
