"The Azure Heaven is dead! The Yellow Heaven shall rise!"
The overwhelming sound, the all-encompassing sonic might, seemed to come from all directions, sweeping across the heavens and earth, carrying with it boundless fury and resentment, as well as boundless arrogance and domineering supremacy.
That pillar of golden Rainbow Light still flickered.
That vast and terrifying might continued to spread.
The Chaotic Currents here also churned wildly like ocean waves.
Within the currents, Gu Qingfeng summoned his Divine Sense, intending to probe a little. But after careful thought, he ultimately gave up.
It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he didn't dare.
Yes.
He didn't dare.
This commotion, this spectacle, this display was simply too grand. Especially the might that was spreading out not only shook his Heart-Mind but also pressed down on his entire body, giving him a suffocating feeling.
One must know that even when facing the Heavenly Might, Gu Qingfeng had never felt such trepidation.
His intuition told him that some terrifying existence must have emerged, and it was absolutely the kind of terrifying that exceeded imagination.
He could feel it.
"The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise!"
The overwhelming sonic might continued to explode, shaking people's hearts and minds, causing their spirits to tremble.
Gu Qingfeng was like this.
Da Xing the Mad Monk was no exception.
Lady Blackwater, the Old Beggar, Bai Chou, Bodhisattva Shuiyue, as well as the Peacock Great Emperor and the Floating Life Emperor Lord who had previously met Gu Qingfeng once—all were the same. No one was an exception. Even the Divine Sense avatars of those Great Dao Patriarchs from the Desolate Ancient Era seemed terrified.
"The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise..." Da Xing the Mad Monk's complexion was very poor, or more precisely, very ugly. His eyes wide, his face deathly pale, he stared at that pillar of golden Rainbow Light and muttered, "What kind of existence could it be, to possess such terrifying might? Could it really be some Yellow Heaven Patriarch?"
"No!" Da Xing the Mad Monk shook his head. "Didn't all those Yellow Heaven Patriarchs perish long ago?"
"Who is it? Just who is it?"
Suddenly, as if Da Xing the Mad Monk had thought of something, his already pale face tightened sharply. "It couldn't be... him, could it?"
"No! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Da Xing the Mad Monk shook his head again.
"Kid Gu! This old monk thinks we'd better get out of here right now. This one clearly doesn't look like someone easy to mess with. Who the hell knows which terrifying existence has emerged."
Da Xing the Mad Monk was ready to retreat. As soon as his words fell, for some reason, the Chaotic Currents, which had been like raging waves, began to slowly rotate under the powerful might of the golden Rainbow Light, faintly forming another massive Chaotic Current Vortex.
Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, Da Xing the Mad Monk turned tail and ran. Gu Qingfeng, however, did not leave, allowing the Chaotic Current Vortex to draw him in.
He wasn't a person of great curiosity, but this time, he desperately wanted to know which great figure had emerged.
"Kid Gu! Have you grown tired of living!"
Discovering that Gu Qingfeng had no intention of leaving, Da Xing the Mad Monk was frantic with anxiety, his heart also extremely conflicted. His reason told him this place was dangerous and he must leave as soon as possible. But while fearful, he also very much wanted to witness which great figure had emerged, and he was even more curious than Gu Qingfeng.
After much deliberation, Da Xing the Mad Monk gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, stopped fleeing, grabbed Gu Qingfeng's shoulder, and followed Gu Qingfeng deeper and deeper into the Chaotic Current Vortex.
"You old bald donkey, didn't you run off? Why are you dragging me along!" Gu Qingfeng cursed angrily.
Da Xing the Mad Monk did not respond, only holding firmly onto Gu Qingfeng's shoulder.
He dragged Gu Qingfeng because he had something to say to him. Of course, that was secondary. The important thing was that Da Xing the Mad Monk had long realized that ever since he lured Gu Qingfeng into the Primordial Black Hole, his own life was destined to be tied to Gu Qingfeng's.
If Gu Qingfeng lived, he might die. If Gu Qingfeng died, he would definitely die. With no other path to survival, Da Xing the Mad Monk could only cling to Gu Qingfeng, the greatest variable between heaven and earth, to seek a way out.
In his mind, in this ancient and present world, if there was anyone who could give him a way out, that person must be Gu Qingfeng.
There would absolutely not be a second.
Gu Qingfeng's mind was now completely focused on that pillar of golden Rainbow Light with its vast might, and he couldn't be bothered with Da Xing the Mad Monk.
As they sank deeper into the Chaotic Current Vortex, Gu Qingfeng also drew closer and closer to that pillar of golden Rainbow Light.
Even so.
He still did not dare to summon his Divine Sense to probe.
The closer he got to that golden Rainbow Light, the more clearly he could feel the terrifying might contained within.
This might was terrifying beyond his imagination, to the point that calling it a rare sight in his lifetime would not be an exaggeration.
He was also glad he hadn't recklessly used his Divine Sense to probe. If he had touched that golden Rainbow Light and suffered a backlash from its might, the consequences would be simply unimaginable.
Unable to use Divine Sense, he could only observe with his naked eyes.
Fortunately, he had long since honed a pair of fiery golden eyes.
Through the golden Rainbow Light, Gu Qingfeng faintly seemed to see a person.
Perhaps it was a person.
He couldn't see clearly. That person stood like a solitary peak at the very center of the Chaotic Current Vortex, draped in ten thousand zhang of golden light, hands seemingly clasped behind his back, head slightly raised as if gazing at the firmament.
"As long as the Azure Heaven does not die, the Yellow Heaven will not cease!"
"As long as the Azure Heaven is not extinguished, the Yellow Heaven will not rest!"
Suddenly, that person leaped upwards. The golden Rainbow Light exploded open, and the vast might contained within instantly shattered the forming Chaotic Current Vortex. Gu Qingfeng and Da Xing the Mad Monk, who had been caught in the vortex, were sent flying sideways by the shockwave.
Too powerful!
Too terrifying!
Too horrifying!
The feeling was like being annihilated to dust by a flick of a finger, or being instantly crushed by an overwhelming force. Both Da Xing the Mad Monk, who had manifested his Immovable Golden Body, and Gu Qingfeng, whose physical body was incredibly robust, were tormented by this might. Their bones felt like they were falling apart, and their entire bodies were sent flying uncontrollably through the currents.
They didn't know how long it lasted. Truly, they didn't know. Both Gu Qingfeng and Da Xing the Mad Monk had their minds filled with the eight words: "The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise." Like a curse, the words continuously exploded and echoed in their minds, impossible to drive away or disperse.
When they regained their senses and steadied themselves, they looked around again. The golden Rainbow Light had long since vanished. The Chaotic Current Vortex had also long since dissipated. Only the turbulent, roaring Chaotic Currents churned and raged within the Primordial Black Hole.
Ignoring the pain all over his body, Gu Qingfeng flew over, wanting to search. However, after searching for a long time, he found nothing. It seemed that person had truly disappeared, vanished without a trace, as if he had never appeared.
Closing his eyes.
The eight words "The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise" still echoed in his mind. Gu Qingfeng shook his head and muttered in astonishment, "What the hell kind of existence was that? It was way too terrifying."
