Sacred white radiance, like the great sun hanging in the sky, illuminated heaven and earth, giving birth to all living beings.
Immortals were comprehending the Dao, myriad Buddhas were chanting sutras, and all manner of living beings seemed to be battling in paradise.
Evil black radiance, like the night moon suspended, enveloped the firmament, giving birth to all manner of dead spirits.
Demons were roaring, myriad monsters were howling, and all manner of dead spirits seemed to be slaughtering in hell.
The Immortals and Buddhas were countless, their spirits transforming into endless celestial phenomena.
The demons and monsters were also countless, their dead spirits transforming into endless earthly phenomena.
The Immortals and Buddhas were like progenitors, and the demons and monsters were also like progenitors.
Heaven and earth were as if newly opened.
Gazing upon this scene, the demon monster woman already felt a sense of suffocation, murmuring, "Celestial phenomena of all life, earthly phenomena of all death, and the chaos of Qiankun...
This is truly...
All life, all death, all pagodas; all heavens, all earths, all phenomena!"
The demon monster woman did not know how to describe the shock in her heart.
She knew that Gu Qingfeng had once comprehended a peerless creation called 'All Life Pagodas, All Phenomena Paying Homage'.
This was a creation of the Human Dao. Legend had it that comprehending this creation was almost equivalent to becoming the future master of the Human Dao.
But she did not understand how Gu Qingfeng had further derived two other creations from this Human Dao creation of 'All Life Pagodas, All Phenomena Paying Homage'.
One was the Celestial Phenomena of All Life, and the other was the Earthly Phenomena of All Death.
What kind of creations these two were, the demon monster woman could neither understand nor see through. She only knew they were profoundly mysterious, mysterious to the extreme, encompassing all things like life and death, yin and yang, light and darkness, heaven and earth, and so on, like a mass of chaos—especially when combined with the Chaos of Qiankun that Gu Qingfeng later comprehended.
At this moment.
Although Gu Qingfeng was trapped within the Blood-Sucking Cauldron, he was like a deity.
Yes.
A god.
At this very moment, when he invoked the Chaos of Qiankun, the Celestial Phenomena of All Life, and the Earthly Phenomena of All Death, he was the god of this heaven and earth.
He presided over life and death, over yin and yang, over light and darkness, and over all phenomena of heaven and earth.
If earlier, when Gu Qingfeng invoked the Chaos of Qiankun, he had only caused dozens of Divine Sense Avatars to be trapped within it, then when he invoked the Celestial Phenomena of All Life and the Earthly Phenomena of All Death, those dozens of Divine Sense Avatars were already in dire straits, unable to move an inch.
This chaos—one thought paradise, one thought hell. Whether it was hell or paradise, no one could distinguish clearly.
They only knew that when it was one thought paradise, the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars faced Immortals and Buddhas, an endless multitude of Immortals and myriad Buddhas. The Immortals were like Buddhas and also like Sages—Heavenly Immortals, Heavenly Buddhas, and Heavenly Sages, even Progenitor Immortals, Progenitor Buddhas, and Progenitor Sages. Before these celestial phenomena of Immortals and Buddhas, the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars appeared so minuscule, as insignificant as a speck of dust in the world.
When it was one thought hell, the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars faced demons and monsters, an endless multitude of demons and myriad monsters. The monsters were like demons and also like Sages—Progenitor Monsters, Progenitor Demons, and Progenitor Sages. Before these earthly phenomena of demons and monsters, the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars were even more minuscule, as tiny as ants.
It must be said.
This scene was absolutely breathtaking and awe-inspiring.
At the very least.
The demon monster woman was feeling exactly this way. Gazing upon the Celestial Phenomena of All Life, the Earthly Phenomena of All Death, and the Chaos of Qiankun here, she had long held her breath, her heart like raging waves. She had never felt such shock before, nor had she ever felt so ignorant. This was the first time in her life.
She looked at the chaotic phenomena here, the more she looked, the more incredible it seemed; the more she looked, the more unbelievable it became; the more she looked, the uglier her expression grew; the more she looked, the more her heart trembled.
Suddenly.
The chaos changed.
The Immortals and Buddhas seemed not to be Immortals and Buddhas; the demons and monsters seemed not to be demons and monsters. The Immortals and Buddhas were demons and monsters, and the demons and monsters were also Immortals and Buddhas.
Yin was yang, yang was yin; light was darkness, darkness was light; heaven was like earth, earth was like heaven.
Everything was in disorder.
All was in chaos.
The chaos truly resembled a mass of Primordial Chaos.
The demon monster woman might not know what the true Great Dao was.
However, gazing upon this scene resembling Primordial Chaos, she felt that this chaos might be the true Great Dao. Even if it wasn't, it had certainly approached the Great Dao. She seemed to understand, yet became even more bewildered—within the bewilderment was more reverence and fear.
She did not know where this reverence came from, nor where this fear came from. She only knew that the chaotic scene here made her severely uncomfortable.
"You all..." Gu Qingfeng's voice came from within the chaos. Though only two words, the sound was like heavenly might, vast and majestic, like a hegemon presiding over heaven and earth, like a deity presiding over life and death.
As the voice fell, countless celestial phenomena of Immortals and Buddhas began to pay homage, and countless earthly phenomena of demons and monsters began to offer worship!
"Perish!" One word fell!
The Immortals, Buddhas, demons, and monsters bowed together. This bow caused the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars trapped in the chaos to tremble violently!
"For!" Another word fell.
The Immortals, Buddhas, demons, and monsters bowed again. This bow caused the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars to distort and blur.
"Me!" The third word fell.
The Immortals, Buddhas, demons, and monsters bowed a third time. This bow caused the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars to vanish into thin air on the spot.
In the distance.
Outside the chaos, gazing upon this scene.
The demon monster woman was utterly dumbfounded, hardly believing her own eyes.
When Gu Qingfeng invoked the Chaos of Qiankun, the Celestial Phenomena of All Death, and the Earthly Phenomena of All Death, evolving them into chaos, she had already realized she had underestimated Gu Qingfeng, and realized that Gu Qingfeng's existence was far more mysterious and terrifying than she had imagined.
Although she could not discern what existence this chaos evolved by Gu Qingfeng was, she knew that the existence of this chaos absolutely exceeded imagination.
But no matter how much it exceeded imagination, could it really be this terrifying?
Gu Qingfeng was just trapped in the Blood-Sucking Cauldron, not moving at all. He merely spoke a few words, and the Immortals, Buddhas, demons, and monsters within the chaos bowed to him three times, and then...
And then there was no more then...
Not a single one of the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars remained; all were shaken into nothingness.
The demon monster woman thought she had seen wrong. She probed very carefully—the dozens of Divine Sense Avatars had indeed vanished into thin air, not even leaving a trace of residue.
If she hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes, the demon monster woman would absolutely not believe this scene was real. Even now, having witnessed it personally, it still felt like a dream.
Others might not know the identities of these people, but she knew very well—behind these Divine Sense Avatars were the Great Dao Progenitors of the Desolate Ancient Era!
It was no exaggeration to say that even a single thought, a single wisp of spirit from these Great Dao Progenitors was terrifying to the extreme, let alone an entire Divine Sense Avatar. Consider how earlier, Changfeng Great Emperor, possessing the Azure Dragon representing the protection of the Azure Heaven and the Great Justice Blade representing the judgment of the Azure Heaven, could only barely contend with these Divine Sense Avatars of the Great Dao Progenitors.
And now.
Such powerful Divine Sense Avatars of Great Dao Progenitors had been shaken to ashes by Gu Qingfeng with just a few words—and not just one Great Dao Progenitor, but dozens of them.
Heavens!
What kind of existence was this chaos birthed by this guy?
How could it be so terrifying?
What were those celestial phenomena of Immortals and demons, those earthly phenomena of demons and monsters, and all those chaotic phenomena within it?
Why did they pay homage and offer worship to him?
What were they paying homage to?
What were they offering worship to?
What exactly were they bowing to?
Unknown.
No one knew.
