Suddenly, a divine light streaked across the heavens, like the brilliance of creation, obliterating all gray mist outside the Great Desolation world, devouring it and transforming it into a purple, misty expanse that permeated the Gray Ancestral Origin.
New chains of order clanged across heaven and earth, and the beings of the Great Desolation watched in confusion as their cultivation suddenly dissipated.
Then, their cultivation rapidly ascended again, reaching the peak of the mortal realm in a flash.
The six directions and eight wildernesses, the rules of heaven and earth, tore through time, forging eternal indestructibility.
The scene was too grand, too vast, too magnificent, and too terrifying.
All laws coexisted, yet were distinct.
Rules were eternal, order was immutable.
Heaven and earth, time and space, eternal in a single thought.
Thump, thump, thump!
Heartbeats reached their peak, then abruptly ceased.
Heaven and earth were completely dismantled, and all laws were replayed.
The chaotic immortal light grew brighter, and galaxies hung in the sky like an endless array of runes.
They were arranging and combining, constructing a new world.
Various killing domains and the terrifying pressure emanating from them had long surpassed the limits of the Great Desolation.
At this moment, even if a innate being were to appear, they would tremble and prostrate themselves.
And all of this was merely a new world evolved by Mu Changqing, whose mortal body was in a mortal state.
Crack!
As the heartbeats stopped, the coffin let out a slight creak.
A figure in a long robe with black hair appeared in the sky. He looked like an ordinary person, without any trace of cultivation aura.
Yet, he was like a deity of all realms, with new worlds and new laws constantly unfolding behind him.
All sorts of chaos and primordial energies were being opened, and all sorts of order and rules were being nurtured.
Endless pillars of light shot up into the sky, piercing the heavens and traversing the great realms.
Each ray was terrifying to the extreme, all were the brilliance of creation, suppressing all realms, dense and countless, never to be exhausted.
Within these light pillars, some were like chaotic thunder, capable of easily opening up chaotic primordial energies.
Some were like the calamities of world destruction, capable of easily annihilating a great era.
Some were like sword light that severed eternal years, capable of easily severing the flow of time and disrupting the heavens.
Countless awe-inspiring and earth-shattering scenes.
At this moment, Mu Changqing slowly opened his indifferent, deathly still purple eyes.
In that instant, as if the heavens and earth of a chaotic future had suddenly been illuminated by a ray of light, it was terrifying.
Divine radiance flowed eternally, bestowing infinite vitality upon Mu Changqing's deceased body.
Mu Changqing stood quietly in the sky, experiencing the creation of all laws, with endless anomalies surrounding him.
Below, the beings of the Great Desolation knelt in fear. Even the Red Dust Immortals were no more than ants.
They, who were usually high and mighty, and who had been arrogant just a moment ago, now felt nothing but fear in their hearts.
"Eternity? What is eternity?"
Mu Changqing murmured softly, releasing his restrictions.
There was no earth-shattering aura, no power that shook the universe.
It was very calm, as calm as an ordinary person.
For him, eternity in a single thought, supreme in a single thought, the destruction of all realms in a single thought, was too simple, too easy.
"Eternity... true eternity is... invincibility in all realms!"
Suddenly, Mu Changqing let out a cold snort, and the entire population of the Great Desolation instantly turned into nothingness.
The entire Great Desolation world exploded like a bubble, enveloped by the gray mist of the ancestral origin.
It was instantly devoured and assimilated.
Mu Changqing completed another transformation, possessing his own insights, the creation of laws, and origins.
Although he was like a newborn infant, he had completely broken the rule of the Gray Ancestral Origin and was the true new ancestral origin.
At this moment, where he stood, that was the ancestral origin.
Stepping into the Gray Ancestral Origin once again, Mu Changqing had new insights.
He also understood that his true opponent was not merely the seven great ancestral gods, but the Gray Ancestral Origin itself.
Everything that exists in the world is created by the consciousness of living beings.
Perhaps, why this consciousness of living beings appeared, and its meaning of existence, no one knew.
But it still existed, and having consciousness meant it was a living being, a match for Mu Changqing.
Standing on the Gray Ancestral Origin, Mu Changqing slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky of the ancestral origin.
There, suspended were particles of gray dust, each containing nascent great universes, encompassing billions of galaxies, billions of star fields, and an infinite number of great worlds.
The number of beings had long been beyond calculation.
"Heaven? So... this is the true heaven. The Burial of the Heavens Bead does not bury merely the primordial heavenly dao, but the heavens of all realms, the heaven of origin... the Gray Ancestral Origin."
Mu Changqing murmured to himself, his expression incomparably indifferent.
With a single step, he crossed an immeasurable distance. Mu Changqing needed to settle some old grievances.
Some old acquaintances needed to wither away.
Like his former enemies, they were annihilated in the long river of time and buried by his hand.
Mu Changqing would not let go of his enemies, no matter how weak they were.
Only in death could one truly find peace.
His gaze flickered, and divine radiance flashed, instantly penetrating all veils in the world.
Now, even if Mu Changqing's body stood in the most conspicuous place, even the ancestral gods could not perceive his existence.
Yet, he could sense them, no matter how much time had passed or where in the space-time plane they hid.
A moment later, Mu Changqing turned, looking towards some unknown place.
A hint of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said indifferently.
"I've found you. Let's settle past karma one by one."
As he spoke, his body did not move, but like a bubble, it slowly dissipated.
He reappeared, and Mu Changqing had arrived at an extremely special domain within the Gray Ancestral Origin.
This place was concealed by the patterns of the supreme origin law of the Gray Ancestral Origin, isolating all perception.
It was like a natural sanctuary, undetectable even by ancestral gods.
Before him was a multiverse, nurturing an infinite number of beings.
Outside, endless divine laws flowed, and chaotic immortal light permeated the air. The vitality was hundreds of millions of times more vigorous than in the present heavens.
All of this indicated the extraordinary nature of this place.
Mu Changqing clasped his hands behind his back, as if facing the abyss of heaven and earth, and faced this vast, boundless, and immeasurably long multiverse.
Under his perception, the universe was filled with countless immortals, complete laws of the great dao, and children of destiny could be found everywhere.
"It really is a nice place."
Mu Changqing's eyes moved, and a smile played on his lips as he murmured.
For, in his perception, this place not only contained Immortal Emperor cultivators but also innate beings, and even existences like the primordial heavenly dao.
However, this primordial heavenly dao was not his old acquaintance but a new heavenly dao created by an ancestral god.
And the reason he appeared here was because there was an old acquaintance of his in this multiverse... karma and destiny.
"Choosing another more powerful and terrifying universe to replace the original karma and destiny, continuing your schemes and forging the ultimate path?"
"As expected, you, who come from the same great era as me, are not simple beings."
Mu Changqing mumbled, and with a single step, he directly entered this multiverse.
His aura was imperceptible, otherwise, with Mu Changqing's current power, just revealing a trace of his aura could cause this multiverse, which was powerful enough to instill fear in the present heavens, to collapse and be destroyed.
Mere destiny and karma were not worth Mu Changqing entering this multiverse.
His true objective, besides karma and destiny, was another ancestral god who was dormant within the multiverse, his true body placed in distorted time and space.
