The Western Desert, in a sealed space where a primitive mountain range stretched across inside.
Boom!
There was chaos ensuing in a certain canyon. Two powerful figures were fighting and killing without holding back.
One of them was clad in 22-layered Heavenly Flame Emperor armor, and Emperor Flames that seemed to be able to burn the sky was roaring like a fire deity.
The other party was wearing 22-layered Saintly Emperor armor.
At times, the shadow of a great bird could be seen, and at other times, a great fish's shadow could be seen floating as the black and white Yin and Yang powers blended.
He held the Tiankun War Halberd in his hand and attacked the man from the Blaze Emperor Clan crazilv.
They were the Blaze Emperor Clan's Yan Wujie of the Flare Emperor Clan and Demon Alliance's leader, Zhang Hu.
This was a battle that was more or less on the same level. The two of them had all kinds of divine arts. They collided with each other, and the terrifying aftershock of berserk energy caused parts of the canyon to collapse.
"Leader Zhang, you seem to want the Dawn Flower from me so badly. Do you want to use it to save your boss?"
Yan Wujie burst into laughter. The flaming saber in his hand released brutal light that was hundreds of meters long.
Rumble!
The powerful light forced Zhang Hu back more than ten steps.
"If you don't leave the Dawn Flower alone today, you won't be able to go away alive."
Zhang Hu shouted, his eyes intimidating. The Yin and Yang power around him was in chaos. He rushed forward with a loud bang, the halberd in his hand slashing across the sky. The violent Yin-Yang power it poured out sometimes turned into a fish and sometimes into a bird, dominating the entire canyon.
"Here you go! Hahaha!"
Yan Wujie laughed loudly. He didn't want to waste any more time with Zhang Hu, so he threw out the Dawn Flower and flew away.
He and Zhang Hu had wasted a few hours here. If they continued to fight, it would take a few days and nights to determine the victor.
This would delay Yan Wujie from finding other opportunities. It was not worth giving up the entire forest over a single flower.
Moreover, after seeing Zhang Hu caring so much about the Dawn Flower, he dared to be sure that Gu Changqing was already dead.
This was his greatest gain from this trip.
He had finally confirmed that the greatest threat to the universe's races was dead. Next, he could kill the human race.
Seeing this, Zhang Hu did not chase after him. Instead, he flew over and snatched the Dawn Flower that was about to fall to the ground. Its entire body was covered in a dark blue glow.
"Boss, I hope this can bring you back from the dead and drag your soul back from the underworld."
Zhang Hu carefully put the flower away and flew into the sky. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the horizon.
"Haha! So he'S indeed dead! Ahahaha!"
Yan Wujie, who pretended to leave, heard Zhang Hu's whispers and laughed out loud.
"The Dawn Flower can only save creatures that have just died. Seems like your boss has been dead for a month."
Yan Wujie chuckled, then turned around and left, ready to announce Gu Changqing's death.
Once this news spread, it would definitely shake the entire universe.
Core city, on the 600th floor's main office bedroom.
Gu Changqing woke up without anyone knowing and walked over to the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror.
The blood-colored spear mark between his brows had disappeared and turned into an Abyss Imperial Seal that flickered with black light.
The mark then appeared again on his left palm.
This time, his Asura, Qilin, King of Hell, Grim Reaper, Human Skull, and Nezha Divine Runes were all absorbed by the Emperor Dragon Divine Rune.
Therefore, Gu Changqing's current Emperor Dragon Divine Rune didn't have the original 65 layers, but 72.
Its current rank was 22 on Divine level.
An Emperor-level divine rune wasn't easy to evolve. It was impossible to upgrade it without reaching level 80.
Gu Changqing's current body had a lifelike Luo Hou mark on his back and a deep abyss on his chest that seemed to be able to swallow the heavens and the universe.
With a slight thought, the Emperor Dragon Divine Rune on his chest shone brightly and covered his entire body in the blink of an eye. Then, it turned into an incomparably terrifying armor that overflowed with great pressure.
The Half-Dragonized Abyssal Emperor Dragon armor was covered in dragon patterns. Blood-red Asura lines flowed on its body, and the five Qilin elements were embedded in its chest. It looked extremely sophisticated.
The two Dragon Kings behind him were covered in Abyss Dragon armor. On their ferocious heads, a pair of eyes that seemed to come from hell flickered with ruthless and bloodthirsty light.
Other than that, on his left arm was the King of Hell's Totem while on his right arm was the Grim Reaper's mark.
The left eye of the malevolent Dragon Abyss Helmet he wore was as black as an abyss, while the right eye was as beautiful as a sea of blood.
Gu Changqing had truly died once before obtaining this set of divine rune armor.
The power contained within was possibly unparalleled.
Just the imperceptible aura it emitted was enough to make people of the same level lose their will to fight.
Even the valiant Gu Changqing felt intoxicated and infatuated.
He looked at his armor and then went into the bathroom.
After soaking comfortably inside for half an hour, he opened the wardrobe and saw that there was nothing to wear.
Immediately, he saw several black military uniforms with three Emperor Star emblems on each shoulder.
There was no doubt that this was the old empire ruler's exclusive military uniform.
Gu Changqing took out a set and slowly put it on. He found that it was surprisingly suitable as if it was tailored just for him.
The nice-fitting uniform made him look more dignified, domineering, and ruthless.
Gu Changqing observed through the mirror, nodding with satisfaction.
Then, he walked out of the bedroom and went straight to the office.
"Ah! Master?"
Gu Changqing had just stepped into the office when the main optical computer, Xiao Shu's voice rang out in shock, surprise, and disbelief.
The computer on the desk kept flashing.
Gu Changqing sat down on the office chair and picked up the cigarette box on the table. He took out a cigarette and lit it up. Taking a deep whiff, he asked, "How long have I been asleep? What's the current situation on Blue Star?"
Xiao Shu flashed with colorful lights. Other than not having a body, it had all of a human's emotions.
At this moment, he really couldn't use any words to express his excitement.
Gu Changqing didn't speak, quietly waiting for him to calm down.
After a few minutes, the computer's flickering lights slowly returned to a dark gold color.
"Master, I'm sorry. I… I'm really excited that you finally woke up!"
"Because of your temporary death, the previous master recognition info has disappeared. Please let me recognize you as my master again!"
"Master, the uniform really looks majestic and menacing when you wear it!"
In the end, Xiao Shu was like a little fanboy.
Gu Changqing placed his hand on the computer, and in a flash, Xiao Shu's voice rang out, "Identity confirmed. Welcome, Master. I am Xiao Shu, nice to meet you! If you have anything you don't understand or want to ask, you can ask me!"
"As for the current situation, Blue Star now has 1,135,210,000 extraterrestrial creatures roaming on it."
"Because of your intimidation, most of the outer realm creatures don't dare to harm the humans."
"Eight days ago, the planet's first sealed space was opened."
Xiao Shu told him everything that had happened in the past month in the simplest way, "Master, we can't let those outer realm creatures leave with our resources!"
"I can make it so that those who enter and leave the seal can only enter and not exit, and then exterminate them."
