"Today, I obliterate your divine consciousness avatars into mist and smoke; another day, I shall reduce your true bodies and souls to scattered dust and flying ash!"
Gu Qingfeng's arrogant, domineering voice exploded through the air, like the roar of a god or the howl of a demon, akin to the furious cry of a dragon or phoenix, seeming to pierce through endless space and reverberate through countless Desolate Ancient Era ruins.
This statement was neither a warning nor a threat, but a promise.
Gu Qingfeng wanted to tell all those old fellows secretly watching him that he didn't care who they were, nor was he interested in knowing. If they merely watched, he couldn't be bothered. But if they dared to act, he would see it through to the end—a fight to the death.
Such a heroic declaration truly stirred the blood.
Outside the Primordial Chaos.
Changfeng Great Emperor had been watching nervously all along. Earlier, when Gu Qingfeng first unleashed the Qiankun Chaos, he had immediately sent Qianye Immortal King and the others away, then turned back himself, worried that Gu Qingfeng might be in danger and ready to lend a hand.
He had previously clashed with these divine consciousness avatars and clearly understood just how powerful they were—so powerful that even summoning his Azure Dragon Guardian had been futile.
Yet now, dozens of such powerful avatars had been instantly obliterated into mist and smoke by Gu Qingfeng in the blink of an eye.
How could Changfeng Great Emperor not be shocked?
Watching the myriad living beings—immortals, buddhas—paying homage here, and the demon monsters and undead spirits offering sacrifices, Changfeng Great Emperor finally realized that perhaps he was no longer the self from the Ancient Era, and Gu Qingfeng's existence was even more unlike the Gu Qingfeng of that bygone age.
Inside the arena.
Light and darkness intertwined, yin and yang swirled, and the Primordial Chaos continued to transform.
The immortal and buddha beings still paid homage, and the demon monsters and undead spirits still offered sacrifices.
Everything, everything, did not cease just because dozens of divine consciousness avatars had vanished into mist and smoke.
The same held true for the Blood-Sucking Cauldron.
Roar—
The Blood-Sucking Cauldron was no longer a cauldron; it more closely resembled a ferocious beast from the Desolate Ancient Era, shrouded in bloody mist and radiating extreme savagery.
This Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast continuously roared in fury, seeking to devour Gu Qingfeng.
However.
The situation had changed the moment Gu Qingfeng unleashed the Qiankun Chaos, the Countless Celestial Phenomena of Life, and the Countless Infernal Landscapes of Death.
Although half his body remained swallowed by the Blood-Sucking Cauldron, the cauldron itself was also enveloped and suppressed by the myriad manifestations of the Primordial Chaos here.
When the chaotic phenomena paid homage and offered sacrifices, they not only caused the dozens of divine consciousness avatars to vanish into mist and smoke, but also made the Blood-Sucking Cauldron tremble violently!
Each violent roar seemed to vent its rage.
"You think a beast like you can devour me?
Let's see today whether you devour me, or I devour you!"
Trapped within the Blood-Sucking Cauldron, Gu Qingfeng clenched his fists and gave a sudden shake. In an instant, the acupoints across his body opened once more. This time, his acupoints did not transform into chaotic current vortices. Instead, each acupoint became like a black hole that devoured everything—mysterious and terrifying.
"He…
He actually intends to counter-devour the Blood-Sucking Cauldron!"
In the distance.
Outside the Primordial Chaos.
Watching this scene, the demoness muttered in horror, feeling her scalp tingle and her hair stand on end.
For she discovered that although the acupoints across Gu Qingfeng's body had not transformed into chaotic current vortices, they were filled with endless, countless vortices.
In other words, each of Gu Qingfeng's acupoints was like a Desolate Ancient black hole—no!
Not just like one; it essentially was one.
Imagine each acupoint being a Desolate Ancient black hole, and Gu Qingfeng's body, covered in such acupoints, was like an endless multitude of Desolate Ancient black holes devouring the Blood-Sucking Cauldron.
Heavens!
The demoness's mind trembled, and her mental state began to crumble.
She simply couldn't comprehend or understand how Gu Qingfeng had achieved this.
Earlier, his body covered in endless chaotic vortices had already left her bewildered. Now, his body covered in endless Desolate Ancient black holes made her question her very existence—wondering whether she was too ignorant or Gu Qingfeng's existence was too mysterious!
Within the Primordial Chaos.
The immortal and buddha beings paid homage; the demon monsters and myriad dead offered sacrifices!
With each act of homage, each sacrifice, the Primordial Chaos here grew even more chaotic.
Immortals and buddhas were not immortals and buddhas; demon monsters were not demon monsters. Light was darkness, yin was yang. Even homage and sacrifice had become utterly confused.
Moreover, with each homage and sacrifice, the Blood-Sucking Cauldron twisted and blurred further. To be precise, it was no longer a cauldron, but a Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast covered in blood-red fur.
Roar—
The Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast seemed to be suffering unbearably under the suppression of the Primordial Chaos. It roared, opened its massive maw, and devoured the paying homage immortals and buddhas, devoured the sacrificing demon monsters, devoured the myriad living beings and the myriad dead, and even devoured the Primordial Chaos here.
"My chaotic phenomena are endless and boundless! Today, I'll stuff you to death, you beast—you'll never swallow it all!"
Gu Qingfeng's overwhelmingly domineering voice exploded forth. Chaos gave birth to chaos; phenomena gave birth to phenomena. Truly, as he said, it was endless and boundless. No matter how ferocious this Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast was, it could never swallow all the chaotic phenomena here.
Perhaps realizing this, the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast ceased devouring the chaos and instead fixated on Gu Qingfeng, determined to devour him.
Unfortunately!
It couldn't swallow Gu Qingfeng.
If it could have, it would have done so long ago, not waited until now.
Gu Qingfeng was like a nail firmly driven into the tongue of the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast. No matter how hard the beast tried to devour him, he remained utterly immovable.
Not only could the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast not devour him, but under the suppression of the chaotic phenomena, it grew increasingly twisted and blurred.
Was that all?
No.
One must know that while the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast was devouring Gu Qingfeng, Gu Qingfeng was also devouring the beast. Moreover, his acupoints, like endless Desolate Ancient black holes, were devouring the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast.
Roar—
The Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast roared repeatedly, its bloody aura pervading the entire Primordial Chaos. With a bang, Gu Qingfeng's body seemed to burst into raging flames, billowing with thick smoke—a smoke that was also interwoven with black and white, resembling the Primordial Chaos itself.
Within the smoke, Gu Qingfeng's blood-red eyes grew even more crimson, and even his ink-black hair began to turn ash-gray.
Outside the Primordial Chaos.
Watching this, the demoness immediately grew tense.
She could sense a terrifying Original Sin awakening within the chaos.
Only, she didn't know whether this Original Sin originated from the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast or from Gu Qingfeng.
Nor did she know whether it was the Original Sin of the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast awakening, or Gu Qingfeng's Original Sin awakening, or perhaps the Original Sin of both the beast and Gu Qingfeng awakening simultaneously.
If it was the Original Sin of the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast awakening, the consequences were unimaginable.
If it was Gu Qingfeng's Original Sin awakening, the consequences were even more unimaginable.
If the Original Sin of both the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast and Gu Qingfeng were awakening, then the consequences would simply be…
Here.
The Primordial Chaos was changing.
The bloody mist belonging to the Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast was boiling.
The thick smoke belonging to Gu Qingfeng was burning!
The bloody mist devoured the smoke, and the smoke also devoured the bloody mist.
Roar—
The Desolate Ancient Fierce Beast roared and instantly transformed into a bloody black hole.
The bloody black hole seemed to swallow the heavens and devour the earth, as if consuming everything.
"It's either your death or my survival!"
Gu Qingfeng gave a shake and transformed into a chaotic black hole, likewise swallowing the heavens and devouring the earth, consuming everything.
As the two black holes devoured each other, a thunderous explosion erupted, and the entire Desolate Ancient Era ruin was shaken into mist and smoke.
