Chapter 1268

Gu Yue Laozi was likewise blocked by me, trapped in this butterfly world.

Ji Fuyao frowned and asked, "What is the Gu Yue Laozi of the Gu Clan's primordial heaven?"

Butterfly Moon said, "It is a wisp of residual power that has seeped out from the butterfly world."

Ji Fuyao's eyes widened.

No wonder Gu Yue Laozi is so mysterious.

If that's the case, just how strong could his true form be?

Butterfly Moon said with some feeling, "The Gu Yue Laozi I am facing is actually not at peak strength; when he descended here, he had already suffered heavy injuries."

"Really?" Chen Zhangsheng frowned slightly.

Butterfly Moon explained, "The Gu Clan's might far exceeds our imagination; their ancestor forged a brand-new Dao, using gu creatures to carry Dao Resonance, thereby making cultivation twice as effective with half the effort, far surpassing humanity."

"The left wing you are in is the river of past ages; that is to say, you have stepped into a node of past time, and what you see is my past self."

Ji Fuyao felt a hint of the miraculous, "The past? Can the past be changed?"

Butterfly Moon pondered, "Since you have entered this river of past ages, you are an accident within it. The Great Dao is fifty, with one escaped; perhaps there is still a chance to alter past history."

"Gu Yue Laozi's idea is simply that grasping the past means grasping the present and future. His power has spread widely in the left wing; in fact, in the left wing, the Hehuan Sect's destruction is already settled, this being the work of Gu Yue Laozi and the Strange Clan."

"However, the time node you have arrived at is the eve of war between my Hehuan Sect and the Longevity Sect."

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyao touched her jade forehead, for a moment finding it hard to digest.

Chen Zhangsheng said, "What if Master intervenes? Directly descend to the left wing and change this outcome?"

Butterfly Moon shook her head lightly, "The burdens on Brother Lu Xuan far exceed our imagination; not to mention outside this remnant universe, even within the counterflow river, there are strong ones from the Past Sect watching the butterfly world."

"Past Sect?"

Ji Fuyao faintly felt that this was another terrifying great power.

Butterfly Moon nodded, "The Past Sect anchors the river of past ages, balancing the force of cause and effect; they naturally would not let Brother Lu Xuan act directly. If Brother Lu Xuan were to act directly, it would likely alarm the giants beyond the remnant universe."

"This counterflow river, the World Tree, the butterfly world, and the Giant Palm World are in fact merely a remnant universe. For now it remains in a state of balance, but if the giants beyond the remnant universe intervene, the balance will be broken and the pressure on Brother Lu Xuan will increase."

Ji Fuyao understood, "So the key to all this lies with us?"

Butterfly Moon's beautiful eyes swirled with starlight, "Perhaps your descent brings hope; if you alter the course of this river of history, you may not necessarily attract the attention of those Past Sect powerhouses."

Chen Zhangsheng fell into contemplation.

Ji Fuyao continued to ask, "Then in the right wing of the butterfly world, is it the present river of ages, and has the river of ages been split apart?"

"Exactly so." Butterfly Moon nodded slightly, "Within the body of the butterfly world lies spatial turbulence; here I am battling Gu Yue Laozi, the Strange Clan's strong ones, and the Longevity Clan's strong ones."

Ji Fuyao felt a wordless shock.

Butterfly Moon has to face so many strong enemies alone!

All under heaven are enemies!

This is a protracted, long-lasting war!

Butterfly Moon smiled with some relief, "My past self, Xiao Nannan, has already stayed by Brother Lu Xuan's side; in fact, it is already complete."

Her eyes once again reflected that small town.

Having walked out of that small town, to reach this point today and be able to aid Brother Lu Xuan, she is already satisfied.

Ji Fuyao hesitated a moment and asked, "Then what about you and Master..."

Butterfly Moon's vermilion lips glistened with luster, she smiled without speaking, "I won't tell you."

Ji Fuyao froze for a moment, secretly thinking, "Then I haven't come for nothing, have I?"

Must!

We must have Master take Butterfly Moon as a disciple too!

Butterfly Moon smiled, "In these heavens, without Brother Lu Xuan, everything will become dim and colorless. As for your Master's past, you will learn of it later. I imagine the World Tree has already begun its great battle, and Brother Lu Xuan will soon descend to the butterfly world."

"Fuyao, you can cultivate here; after entering the Dao Void Realm, you may return."

Ji Fuyao said, "Good."

Butterfly Moon then looked at Chen Zhangsheng, "Chen, Zhang, Sheng! You also cultivate the Longevity Dao; with Gu Yue Laozi's attainment, you will surely be discovered sooner or later. Some cause and effect cannot be concealed."

Chen Zhangsheng gave a bitter laugh, "Then by that time, we can only rely on Master!"

At the pinnacle of the Great Dao, how many can it accommodate?

He had already felt that he and Gu Yue Laozi were now irreconcilable enemies of the Great Dao!

"Ah..."

Chen Zhangsheng sighed.

Butterfly Moon pursed her lips in a smile and summoned Xiao Yue over, "You take Fuyao and Chen Zhangsheng to choose a place for secluded cultivation."

Xiao Yue nodded heavily.

Just now, Butterfly Moon Elder Ancestor and their conversation left her feeling tremendously shocked.

"Has the Hehuan Sect already been destroyed?"

"Is this the river of past ages?"

"Do Fuyao and they come from outside this world?"

All of this exceeded her cognition.

Butterfly Moon's phantom returned once more to oversee the ancestral stone; her beautiful eyes fixed on the backs of Ji Fuyao and Chen Zhangsheng, she murmured, "In this lifetime, Brother Lu Xuan has changed somewhat. I eagerly await seeing Brother Lu Xuan again. Brother Lu Xuan has already achieved it; the primordial seed has now manifested in the world."

"Now the World Tree should have already erupted in war; once the dust settles there, Brother Lu Xuan will surely be able to change everything in the butterfly world."

……

World Tree.

Yao Tian Yuan, Teng Snake Star Sea.

"What to do? What to do?"

"How could it be that even the Black Scale Old Ancestor has fallen?"

"What on earth happened in the Celestial Fox Star Sea?"

Inside the Hall of Ancestral Star Fate Tablets of the Soaring Serpent Clan, the stationed old ancestor paced back and forth with a shocked expression.

Just a short while ago, the fate tablets of the old ancestors and elders began to shatter one after another.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

Upon hearing the voice transmission, arriving here, and witnessing that sight, their hearts nearly stopped.

The Soaring Serpent Clan's foundation, built over endless ages, was destroyed in an instant—within the span of a burning incense stick!

Seeing this, they could no longer remain seated.

You must know that for this expedition to the Celestial Fox Star Sea, they had almost committed ninety percent of their reserves!

Now, among the old ancestors left in the star sea, there are only three at the Nine-Star Dao Void Realm; their current reserves hardly qualify as a hegemon-level force, and can only be considered mid-tier.

Everyone looked to the highest-status gray-robed old ancestor: "Old Ancestor Tengyuan, what should we do next? We still don't know what exactly happened in the Celestial Fox Star Sea!"

Upon hearing this, Old Ancestor Tengyuan raised his head, his brows knotted into a lump, an expression of incomprehension: "Damn it! Didn't Elder Luosheng say that Everlasting Heaven was trapped? Besides Everlasting Heaven taking action, who else could wield such power to annihilate our Soaring Serpent Clan?"

Just then.

"Boom!"

"Crack!"

"Void Rending!"

"Space twisted!"

Lu Xuan wore a white robe, cradling the little girl, a faint Divine Light shimmering on his body as he slowly stepped out of the void rift; behind him followed Yang Ling'er, Ye Chen, and the myriad Everlasting Heaven Army.

Old Ancestor Tengyuan all raised their heads to look at the void, then directly exclaimed: "Lu, Lu, Lu Lord... Ling, Ling, Spirit Martial Emperor..."
