Chapter 78 The Great Emperor Wushi, Turning His Back to the Common People! Dark Turmoil!
Tang Hao lay on the ground, his vision gradually blurring.
At last.
His gaze settled on a broken weed.
The grass was entirely green, with dewdrops clinging to its leaves, and it emitted a faint, refreshing fragrance.
In this world brimming with spiritual energy, even weeds contain a faint trace of power.
Without any hesitation.
The once mighty Clear Sky Douluo, now like a wild beast, grabbed a handful of muddy weeds and stuffed them into his mouth.
Chew thoroughly.
The bitter juice burst in his mouth, yet it brought him a long-lost sense of life.
"Delicious... delicious..."
With tears in his eyes, Tang Hao swallowed weeds and dirt while making indistinct sounds.
Miserable.
That's so tragic.
Many people from Douluo Continent turned their heads away at this scene, unable to bear to look.
That man who once sealed the deal and dominated the world.
Now, however, he's in another world, eating grass like a dog.
This huge disparity is heartbreaking and even alarming.
...
The images flow.
The scene shifted from the desolate ancient forest of the Eastern Wilderness to a magnificent and resplendent celestial banquet.
The atmosphere here was completely different from the despair on Tang Hao's side.
Celestial music filled the air, and fine wine and nectar flowed freely.
Shui Bing'er, dressed in a flowing blue fairy dress, stood quietly behind Ye Xian'er.
She was not entitled to a seat and could only serve wine as a maid.
Even so, the shock in her eyes never ceased.
She saw those divine fruits that she wouldn't even dare to dream of on Douluo Continent, casually arranged on plates here.
She saw that even those powerful figures who exuded an aura of world-destroying might be treated with utmost respect here.
And at the heart of it all.
It's that man sitting in the high position.
Gu Changsheng.
Now.
The Buddha Emperor from the Western Paradise was staring intently at Gu Changsheng.
The two of them just had a discussion.
Although Gu Changsheng didn't say much, every word he uttered pointed directly to the origin of the Great Dao, demonstrating profound insight.
For the Buddha Emperor, this was like a sudden enlightenment.
Buzz!
Suddenly.
A burst of dazzling golden light erupted from the Buddha Emperor's body.
Behind him, a vast phantom of a Buddhist kingdom vaguely appeared.
Countless Arhats and Bodhisattvas chanted sutras within, their sacred sounds resounding throughout the heavens.
That is his way, his law.
At this moment, a transformation occurred!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Amitabha!"
"I understand!"
The Buddha suddenly stood up, put his hands together in prayer, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to smooth out, making him look radiant.
The bottleneck that had plagued him for thousands of years actually showed signs of loosening after a few words of guidance from Gu Changsheng!
"The opportunity to attain enlightenment!"
"This humble monk sees hope for attaining enlightenment and becoming an emperor!"
The Buddha Emperor was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.
In this glorious era where great emperors coexist, those who do not become emperors are ultimately just ants.
Even those with a fully accomplished Holy Body, or those at the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, must bow before the Great Emperor.
Only by truly taking that step can one become invincible!
The Buddha Emperor took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the overwhelming joy in his heart.
He turned around and bowed deeply to Gu Changsheng.
This bow was made with heartfelt admiration.
"Thank you for your guidance, fellow Daoist!"
"This kindness will be forever etched in my heart!"
The way he looked at Gu Changsheng changed.
If what came before was merely politeness and probing, now it is genuine reverence.
Just a few words were enough to make him realize something.
Just what level has this ruler of Heaven reached?
Unfathomable!
Danger!
This was the Buddha Emperor's intuition as a top-tier expert.
On the Douluo Continent side, things were in an uproar once again.
"Am I seeing things?"
"Did that old monk just break through to a higher level?"
"He broke through just by listening to a few words from Gu Changsheng?"
"Just who is this Gu Changsheng?"
All the Soul Masters were green with envy.
If only I could be there, if only I could get a word of advice from that person.
Why bother with cultivation then? Just take off!
"That old monk is ridiculously strong; even he has to be so respectful to Gu Changsheng."
"It seems that this protagonist is even more terrifying than we imagined."
Ning Fengzhi looked at the sky, his eyes filled with longing.
Is this the true demeanor of a strong person?
At the Heavenly Court's birthday banquet.
The Buddha Emperor calmed himself down, knowing that the karmic debt he owed was enormous.
If we don't bring out something truly impressive, we probably won't be able to leave the Heavenly Court.
He gritted his teeth and twisted his wrist.
An ancient bell, as black as ink, appeared in his palm.
This ancient bell is only the size of a palm, looks dilapidated, and is covered with patina.
But the moment it appeared.
The surrounding void trembled, and a desolate, ancient, and even somewhat eerie aura spread out.
"This item was obtained by this humble monk on the outskirts of an ancient mine."
"Although it is incomplete and its spirituality is obscured, its material is extraordinary."
"I will give it to you today as a token of my gratitude."
Although the Buddha Emperor spoke generously, he was still somewhat pained inside.
This is, after all, a fragment of an ultimate imperial weapon.
Gu Changsheng's gaze fell on the ancient bell.
His previously indifferent expression finally showed a slight ripple.
He reached out and took the ancient bell into his palm.
His fingertips gently traced the patterns on the clock face.
"The Bell of No Beginning..."
Gu Changsheng murmured to himself.
Although the sound was very soft, it resounded like thunder in the vast hall where one could hear a pin drop.
The Great Emperor Wushi!
He was one of the most brilliant and talented emperors in human history!
At the end of the immortal path, who stands at the peak? A single glimpse of the Beginningless Dao reveals all emptiness!
This is not merely a poetic title, but the highest praise for the emperor's power.
Unexpectedly, this fragment of an imperial weapon ended up in the hands of those bald monks in the Western Paradise.
And...
Gu Changsheng keenly sensed that inside the bell, there was an extremely subtle yet nauseating black aura.
It was an eerie and ominous aura.
No wonder that old fellow Buddha Emperor couldn't refine it; this thing is too hot to handle.
"That's interesting."
Gu Changsheng smiled slightly.
This eerie aura would be highly poisonous to others, but it was no problem for him, who possessed the system.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
The words fell.
A chaotic flame suddenly appeared in Gu Changsheng's palm.
That was his natal imperial fire.
Boom!
The flames instantly engulfed the broken ancient bell.
"Clang--"
A melodious bell rang out without warning, resounding deep within everyone's soul.
The sound of the bell was grand and solemn, yet it carried an endless sorrow.
Immediately afterwards.
A breathtaking phenomenon manifested above Gu Changsheng's head.
It was a vast and boundless starry sky.
A towering figure, with his back to all living beings, sits cross-legged at the end of the starry sky.
Opposite him was an endless tide of darkness, concealing an indescribable terror.
The figure sat alone on a solitary peak, a large bell hanging above his head.
He's suppressing!
He is ruling unilaterally for all time!
Even when the great bell shattered, even when the emperor's blood stained the starry sky, that figure never retreated even a step.
"That is..."
All the guests present, whether human or ancient races, were so shocked that they stood up.
Even the Buddha Emperor, who had just been looking smug, now gaped, his face filled with disbelief.
"The Great Emperor Wushi!"
"That's the figure of the Great Emperor Wushi!"
