Chapter 208: Is it Gu Nianmo who is ascending to Immortality?

The changes in the Northern Border were not yet known to the Human Race; at the very least, the entire Human Race territory at this moment had only perceived that the number of Demon Race individuals arriving within their borders over the recent period had increased almost geometrically in a short span of time.

They certainly wanted to investigate what exactly was happening within the Northern Border, but at the former front lines of the Northern Border, the Demon Race had as many as a hundred Heavenly Human Enlightenment experts guarding it.

What made people feel the most palpitations was that the aura on those Heavenly Human Enlightenment experts was clearly several times more powerful than that of ordinary Heavenly Human Enlightenment deities.

It took two or three ordinary Human Race deities to contend with a single Heavenly Human Enlightenment expert of the Demon Race.

This resulted in the Human Race's powerhouses clearly knowing that a massive catastrophe must have occurred in the Northern Border, yet because they were blocked by over a hundred Demon Race powerhouses, they were unable to uncover any information at all.

Even when questioning the ten billion Demon Race individuals who had already fled into Human Race territory, the final answer obtained was merely that the ancestor-level powerhouses of their respective clans had directly used great divine abilities to drive them away.

This was also something those Heavenly Human Enlightenment experts of the Northern Border had done intentionally.

They practiced the Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Devouring technique, constantly consuming and refining the vitality within Heaven and Earth, yet they did not want any more competitors.

Across the entire Northern Border, with thousands upon thousands of clans combined, the number of Heavenly Human Enlightenment experts was less than three hundred, while within the entire Human Race, there were over four hundred Heavenly Human Enlightenment deities on the surface alone; how could those Heavenly Human Enlightenment experts of the Northern Border be willing to share a piece of the pie?

Especially after practicing the Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Devouring technique, they knew that the more they swallowed, the stronger their own cultivation would become.

If the Human Race were to obtain the method for Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Devouring, they would at most only be able to follow behind and eat the leftovers of this gluttonous feast! Blocking the news was almost their unanimous course of action.

They first drove away the lower-level members of their own clans, and then used the Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Devouring technique to turn patches of vibrant, vital land within the Northern Border into dead, silent deserts.

Every piece of land represented every bit of their strength.

Even though the many powerhouses of the Northern Border did not yet have a stable channel of communication, their intention was to digest the Northern Border and then launch a sudden invasion of Human Race territory, turning everything within the Human Race's borders into resources for their own cultivation.

As for the members of their own clans who were driven away, letting them go into Human Race territory would not only distract the Human Race powerhouses but also allow them to be turned into cultivation resources in another way.

The End of Dharma era...

The End of Dharma era had not yet truly arrived, but the many powerhouses of the Northern Border were already completely insane.

For these powerhouses at the Heavenly Human Enlightenment realm, what did clans matter? As long as they existed, their clans would still exist.

Furthermore, they already knew that the goal of the Great Wilderness was to completely assimilate everything within Heaven and Earth.

Rather than dying in the lifeless Great Wilderness in the end, it was better to forge a ladder to the heavens for their cultivation during this gluttonous feast!

"Senior Brother, do you think those Heavenly Human Enlightenment experts are stupid?"

"Can't they see that if they continue to encroach upon Heaven and Earth like this, what they will face in the end is the reckoning after the overturning of Heaven and Earth?"

On Wanglin Lake, the woman in yellow stood beside the guest in white; these two had an ethereal aura, and just one look at them would make one wonder if they were a pair of immortal lovers.

But if anyone knew that everything within the Northern Border was the handiwork of these two, that sense of them being immortal lovers would likely turn into chilling horror in an instant!

"They are not stupid, but have been driven to a dead end by the End of Dharma!"

"What else can they do?"

"Although some among them might know that the End of Dharma is Heaven and Earth's way of gestating an Immortal Dao Principle, and that once the Immortal Dao Principle is born, it will be the time for Heaven and Earth to ascend to a higher level."

"But those people don't even know if they can live until that time! After Heaven and Earth ascends, the Supreme Realm will be within reach, and the Heavenly Human Realm will also be attainable."

"But before the ascension of Heaven and Earth, for all practitioners within Heaven and Earth, it is a truly desperate era of the End of Dharma!"

"Perhaps some of them have already guessed that their madness will be met with a Heavenly Rebound, but so what?"

"Before the Heavenly Rebound, they only need to flee into the Great Wilderness; they only need to be taken away by us!"

"Moreover, even if the Heavenly Rebound is intense, it won't necessarily take their lives; after all, this Immortal Dao Principle about to be born was already reserved by someone long ago!"

The guest in white looked at the completely undamaged Wanglin Lake and let out a few sighs in his speech.

Wanglin Lake, once formed from Wanglin Mountain, could be considered one of the few places in the Northern Border that had not been destroyed; after all, while others didn't know, the guest in white knew that once the timing was right, the Great Wilderness could also make use of the void portal at this Wanglin Lake.

"Speaking of which, is it really that person who is going to ascend to Immortality?"

"The order of this world was established by his father; if his father were to be resurrected, his actions..."

The words spoken by the woman in yellow could not help but make one's imagination run wild, but the next moment, the words of the guest in white were enough to make one tremble with fear!

"It is indeed him who is going to ascend to Immortality!"

"And, call him Senior Brother!"

"I don't know what that person was thinking; back when the Red Lotus Demon Venerable was still alive, he was interested in the Great Wilderness for no reason."

"The Heavenly Venerable of Tianyuan once opened the mouth of Tianyuan, intending to invite that Senior Brother into Tianyuan Jie."

"It's just a pity that at that time, that Senior Brother had attachments in his heart, and the entrance to Tianyuan Jie looked truly terrifying."

"That Senior Brother felt he had reached the end of the sea and eventually returned to Heaven and Earth, not knowing that he had missed a great opportunity for nothing!"

The guest in white shook his head incessantly, but if the words he spoke were to fall into the ears of Gu Jiangming's family, it would likely cause them great alarm.

According to the words of this guest in white, Gu Nianmo did not reach the end of the sea back then, but instead reached the entrance to the so-called Tianyuan Jie?

But what was even more shocking were the other words of the guest in white.

The one who was going to ascend to Immortality, and even the one eyeing the Immortal Dao Principle within this world, was actually Gu Nianmo?

It was a pity that Gu Jiangming did not have the ability to be all-knowing and all-powerful; at this moment, Gu Jiangming was completely unaware that his own great son had secretly prepared such a huge surprise for him.

Gu Jiangming's trip to the sea was destined to return empty-handed, even though Gu Jiangming already knew about the changes in Heaven and Earth, and that perhaps even the catastrophe in the Northern Border was related to the Great Wilderness.

But unfortunately, Gu Jiangming's current strength was merely at the Nascent Soul stage; not to mention that even if he could briefly exert the strength of the Red Lotus Demon Venerable he once held, which was near-Immortal, he would absolutely be unable to change the outcome of Heaven and Earth being assimilated by the Great Wilderness.

At this time, Gu Jiangming, Jiu Jiu, Long Xi, and Liu Moxuan returned to Leping County in low spirits.

However, before Gu Jiangming could return to his own courtyard, he saw—he saw that on a mountain dozens of miles outside of Leping County, a sword light was sweeping across with disdain, and there was a huge Great Demon roaring incessantly!
