ROAR—
The luminous Dharma manifestation of the Purification Dragon blotted out the sky and sun. Swinging its massive dragon head, it let out successive roars, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, seeking to tear Gu Qingfeng to shreds. Its blood-red maw gaped open, ready to swallow Gu Qingfeng whole.
"Nine Heavens Immortal Dao, do you think a mere beast like this can erase me?"
Gu Qingfeng neither dodged nor evaded. He charged forward to meet it. As he leapt into the air, he roared angrily, "Get the hell down!"
As his voice fell.
The supreme Absolute Power from his Absolute Body, the supreme Silent Stillness Power from his Silent Stillness spirit, the supreme Killing Domain Power from his Slaughtering Heart, the supreme Life Power from All Beings Pay Homage, and the supreme Death Power from the Blood Sea's devouring flames—all erupted at this very moment!
He seemed to transform into a sharp sword, viciously piercing the dragon's brow. The impact shook the Purification Dragon, forcing it into a sharp descent accompanied by a mournful howl!
ROAR—
The Purification Dragon was enraged to the extreme. It raised its head and roared at the heavens, its Light Power erupting wildly!
At the same time.
High in the sky, a colossal Buddha statue that seemed to pierce heaven and earth abruptly raised its hand and pressed down with a single palm.
This palm was like heaven and earth combined, its Buddha Dharma vast and boundless. It contained countless divine transformations, countless mysteries of the great cosmos, and countless cycles of life and death. This was the Great Compassion Reincarnation Palm. Throughout heaven and earth, regardless of whether you were immortal or demon, regardless of your destiny or how formidable your strength, to be struck by this Great Compassion Reincarnation Palm meant immediate annihilation, cast into the cycle of reincarnation!
Gu Qingfeng, fearless and undaunted, still neither dodged nor evaded. He raised both arms and roared, "Even if you are a Great Buddha, don't dream of using this 'great compassion' to send me into reincarnation!"
The palm descended. Gu Qingfeng stood firm on the Purification Dragon's brow, using his arms to block this Great Compassion Reincarnation Palm unleashed by the sacred Dharma manifestation of the Five Great Wisdom Kings!
Gu Qingfeng, with his supreme Absolute Power, supreme Killing Domain Power, supreme Silent Stillness Power, the supreme Life Power of All Beings Pay Homage, and the Death Power of the Blood Sea flames, stubbornly withstood the Light Power of the Purification Dragon and the Sacred Power of the Five Wisdom Kings' Buddha statues!
BOOM! CRACK!
The heavens madly collapsed, the earth madly shattered, the world madly trembled!
Madness!
Nothing but madness!
His snow-white robes fluttered wildly!
His ink-black hair danced wildly!
Gu Qingfeng's blood-red eyes also boiled with madness!
"With my Absolute Body, I offer sacrifice to the Dao of Absolute!"
Whoosh!
His physical body also began to change wildly at this moment—his skin, his acupoints, his blood vessels, his entire being undergoing inconceivable transformations!
"With my supreme Killing Domain, I offer sacrifice to the Dao of Slaughter!"
Whoosh!
At this moment, the supreme Killing Domain filling the sky also changed wildly—its killing intent, its killing aura, its killing majesty, its killing momentum all transformed!
"With my Silent Stillness spirit, I offer sacrifice to the Dao of Silent Stillness!"
At this moment, the Silent Stillness spirit pervading the sky also began to change!
"With All Beings Pay Homage, I offer sacrifice to the Dao of Life!"
Whoosh!
The myriad phenomena of All Beings Pay Homage also began to change wildly!
"With this evil fire, I offer sacrifice to the Dao of Death!"
Whoosh!
The evil fire filling the sky surged upward, undergoing change!
At this moment, it was no longer merely a contest of power!
It was a collision of Great Daos, a confrontation of Great Daos, a life-and-death struggle of Great Daos!
It was Gu Qingfeng's Dao of Absolute, Dao of Slaughter, Dao of Silent Stillness, Dao of Life, and Dao of Death angrily resisting the Nine Heavens Immortal Dao's Dao of Light and the Western Heaven Buddha Dao's Dao of Sacredness!
"I want this Dao of Absolute to wholly belong to my body! I want this Dao of Silent Stillness to wholly belong to my spirit! I want this Dao of Slaughter to wholly belong to my heart! I want this Dao of Life to wholly belong to my will! I want this Dao of Death to wholly belong to my soul!"
Witnessing this scene.
Su Hua had long been terrified to the point of forgetting everything.
Xuanyuan Wan from the Sacred Ground also had a face ashen as death. She knew Gu Qingfeng was mysterious and bizarre, his comprehension peerless, almost unmatched in all heaven and earth.
Yes.
She knew. She had always known.
Yet even so, she could never have imagined that Gu Qingfeng alone had actually set foot upon five Great Daos!
Moreover, each of these five Great Daos was more mysterious, more bizarre, more dreadful, and more terrifying than the last!
The Dao of Absolute, the Dao of Silent Stillness, the Dao of Slaughter, the Dao of Life, the Dao of Death.
These Great Daos were either forbidden Daos or inviolable Daos, all supreme among the Three Thousand Great Daos.
Now they had all awakened. Not only awakened, but Gu Qingfeng had taken the lead, becoming the first to set foot upon them, the first person of these Daos!
How did he do it?
She didn't know.
Xuanyuan Wan truly didn't know. The scene unfolding before her eyes had long surpassed her imagination!
Was it over?
No.
It would not be over!
High in the air.
Gu Qingfeng, standing upon the Purification Dragon, holding up the Wisdom King Buddha statue, raised his head and let out a long roar, bellowing, "I want this Purgatory Flame to burn my entire being!"
Below.
Xuanyuan Wan from the Sacred Ground felt the sky spinning and the earth turning!
She had previously suspected that the Blood Sea flames, containing supreme evil and supreme death, might be the Purgatory Flame.
She just hadn't dared to believe it, couldn't accept it!
Her heart had been praying it wasn't.
However.
What you fear most is exactly what comes!
Now.
She finally knew. The devouring flames of the Blood Sea were indeed the Purgatory Flame!
She didn't know how Gu Qingfeng had managed to refine this Purgatory Flame. She didn't know and couldn't imagine. But one thing she was clear about: if Gu Qingfeng could refine the Purgatory Flame, then in the not-too-distant future, he wouldn't just have set foot on five Great Daos, but possibly six—with the addition of the Dao of Purgatory!
Suddenly!
Gu Qingfeng's furious roar came again: "I want this Gate of Purgatory to open for me!"
Whoosh!
The sky-filling crimson sea of flames transformed into a crimson abyss. The Blood Sea boiled, roaring upward, devouring heaven and earth.
Witnessing this, Xuanyuan Wan felt the sky darken and the earth dim. She had thought Gu Qingfeng had merely refined the Purgatory Flame and would only set foot on the Dao of Purgatory in the future. Now she realized that was merely her own assumption. Gu Qingfeng didn't need to set foot on the Dao of Purgatory in the future, because he had already set foot upon it!
Heavens!
How could this be?
How could this be allowed?
Xuanyuan Wan's body swayed unsteadily. Her mind was in chaos, her consciousness beginning to blur—terrified, or more precisely, unable to accept that Gu Qingfeng had set foot upon these six Great Daos.
"I shall use my spirit to transform into the Avici Endless Evil Asura!"
When blood stained the earth and dyed the firmament, when the Purgatory Flame devoured heaven and earth.
When the Gate of Purgatory opened.
Gu Qingfeng was no longer Gu Qingfeng.
He had transformed into a colossal monster!
Three heads, six arms, nine eyes.
A body surpassing Mount Sumeru, standing upon the Blood Sea.
One head resembled a True Buddha, hands clasped in prayer, three eyes slightly closed, expression solemn—seeming compassionate, yet also pitying. Buddha light shimmered around it, like the light that enlightens heaven and earth.
One head resembled a True God, arms crossed, three eyes slightly closed, expression aloof and proud—seeming disdainful, yet also domineering. It seemed enveloped in divine light, like the light that rules heaven and earth.
And one head resembled a True Demon, arms flailing wildly, also with three eyes slightly closed, expression evil—seeming violent and cruel. Demonic light enveloped it, like the light that destroys heaven and earth.
Gazing upon this colossal three-headed monster, the swaying Xuanyuan Wan could bear it no longer. She completely collapsed to the ground, utterly stupefied with terror, trembling uncontrollably as if she had seen a ghost or a god.
Ghost or god?
No!
At least Xuanyuan Wan knew that what Gu Qingfeng had transformed into was definitely more terrifying than any ghost or god—a thousand, ten thousand times more terrifying!
"Three faces, three aspects of the head; six arms, six aspects of the hands; nine eyes, nine aspects of the realms... This is...
This is the Avici Endless Evil Asura! The overlord who rules the Dao of Purgatory! The forbidden among the forbidden within heaven and earth!"
