Chapter 345: In the end, he died because of greed.
Gu Qing was in a good mood.
He continuously refined immortal pills in the boundless space for three hundred years, refining all the immortal herbs and obtaining hundreds of millions of top-grade immortal pills.
In addition, Gu Qing also gained insights from alchemy, successfully breaking through from the peak of the third level of the Profound God realm to the early stage of the fourth level, resulting in a qualitative leap in his strength.
This retreat can be described as a double blessing.
"So many top-grade elixirs are enough for the Divine Sect to use for hundreds of millions of years." Gu Qing sorted them and put them into several storage rings.
He doesn't intend to leave everything to the sect; he will sell most of it to obtain immortal crystals.
The eternal universe is so vast; he wants to go and see it.
Once I've accumulated enough immortal crystals, I'll ride the time-space shuttle to explore and see what the ends of the universe look like.
And, the extremely mysterious Wuliang Mountain.
According to the memories of those ancient people, Wuliang Mountain is the origin of the eternal universe, the center of the entire eternal universe, and the pillar mountain that supports the eternal universe.
Mount Wuliang is vast and boundless, so vast that even the Celestial Emperor could hardly glimpse a corner of it.
It is said that the primordial deities of the creation era did not perish, but instead continued to cultivate enlightenment in Wuliang Mountain.
There are also rumors that Wuliang Mountain is the only place that leads to a higher dimension and leaves the eternal universe.
The Primordial God disappeared from Wuliang Mountain.
Of course, this is just information passed down from the Starry Sky Dao Sect, and Gu Qing is not sure whether it is true or false.
Gu Qing stepped out of the Boundless Space and looked up.
In the garden, Jiang Yu was holding a three-year-old child, humming a lullaby and gently patting Xian'er's bottom.
"This is bad..." Gu Qing's eyelids twitched.
When I came out of seclusion, Xian'er was already three years old.
If we wait until Zhimeng comes out, won't Xian'er be a grown woman by then?
Zhi Meng is overjoyed to have a daughter; there's no way she could be happy.
Give Xian'er to me!
Gu Qing reached out, wanting to hug Xian'er.
She was able to grow so fast because Jiang Yu sealed her original essence.
Once unsealed and placed in the boundless space for nurturing, Xian'er will still be a young god-demon.
Ages are calculated in ten thousand years.
The mind is like a child's, clear and innocent, growing with age.
"Get out of the way, there's trouble outside, go and deal with them."
Jiang Yu ignored him and continued to coax Xian'er to sleep.
Who on earth is so blind?
Gu Qing walked out of Wuliangtian Palace with a gloomy face and arrived at the mountain gate in one step.
"what is going on?"
Oh no, how did the cult leader emerge from seclusion...?
When Jiao Yanni and the other woman saw that the person who came was Gu Qing, their already pale faces turned even paler.
If it were Mochizuki who came, then they could still be saved, since Mochizuki is a crazy person who never makes sense.
Moreover, Mochizuki is extremely protective of her own, domineering, and rebellious, and she won't listen to a word of reason.
Or perhaps it's a deity from their lineage who arrives; they could still be saved, after all, they've lived together for thousands of years and share a deep sisterly bond.
But it was Gu Qing who came.
"Master Gu..."
The crowd erupted in uproar, their expressions filled with excitement as they looked at Gu Qing.
After waiting for so many years, I finally met Gu Qing. It was all worth the wait.
Even the powerful Xuan Shen, who was sitting cross-legged in the void, could no longer remain seated. He opened his eyes and teleported to the front of the Boundless Gate in an instant.
Yang Shangyun stroked his beard, a smile on his face, and whispered a message to his son, Yang Zhi.
Yang Zhi bowed respectfully, saying, "Junior Yang Zhi greets Master Gu."
Gu Qing didn't even glance at it, and asked with a frown, "What exactly happened?"
Since he came to power, he doesn't seem to have done anything wrong, does he?
Are these two socially awkward people really that afraid of him?
“They asked about the sect’s practice of accepting disciples, and I said I didn’t know,” Jiao Yanni said in a trembling voice.
"Anything else?" Seeing that there was no follow-up, Gu Qing patiently asked again.
“My tone was harsh and I offended Senior Xuan Shen.”
"……anything else?"
"Gone!"
"What are you afraid of without me?" Gu Qing suddenly felt a sharp pain in his liver.
I thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be just this?
It was something that had absolutely nothing to do with him.
Is there any mistake?
Seeing the two people exchanging questions and answers, and feeling completely ignored, Yang Zhi felt a bit embarrassed and at a loss.
Yang Shangyun was seething with anger, but he didn't show it at all on the surface.
Gu Qing's disdain and the offense of these two lowly maids were ultimately minor matters.
He must join the Boundless Divine Cult to share in its blessings, and then arrange for his clansmen to enter the Boundless Divine Cult for cultivation.
This matter concerns the rise of the Yang family and their dominance in the immortal realm; no mistakes can be tolerated.
"Master Gu, this junior wishes to become your disciple..." Yang Zhi took a deep breath and bowed again. He didn't believe that Gu Qing was not moved by him at all.
After all, he possessed an exceptional divine physique and had evolved to an extremely advanced level, making him comparable in strength to a holy son.
No matter which sect it's in, it would be highly sought after.
"boom!"
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Qing killed him with a single glance.
What kind of so-called prodigy? In his eyes, they were no different from ordinary people. He could create as many scoundrels as he wanted, like Yang Zhi.
He didn't actually care that the father and son were plotting against him.
Because Gu Qing knew very well that everyone present, including all the beings in the Immortal Realm, wanted his inheritance.
Who wouldn't want to be nurtured by the Boundless Divine Sect?
Who wouldn't want to take advantage of this opportunity to achieve great success and enlightenment for free?
If you really want to nitpick, there's no way you can keep track of everything.
But since this father and son dared to act so arrogantly in his sect, they could not be allowed to live.
"You..." Yang Shangyun, who was still in a daze, was suddenly shocked.
I don't understand what's wrong with Gu Qing, why she would kill his son over a mere disagreement.
His son is an exceptionally talented individual that everyone is vying for.
"You die too."
Gu Qing unleashed a punch, constricting space, and the fist imprint pressed forward relentlessly.
Since breaking through to the mid-stage of the Profound God realm, his understanding of the Boundless Great Dao has reached a new level, and his realm has undergone a qualitative leap.
Although Yang Shangyun's cultivation level was higher than his, theoretically, there was no question of a mid-stage cultivator challenging a late-stage cultivator.
However, Yang Shangyun cultivates a lesser path, while Gu Qing cultivates the supreme path.
The two are like a tiger and an ant; they are fundamentally different, and the tiger can absolutely crush the ant.
Under the constraints of spatial power, Yang Shangyun's body was squeezed and deformed, and his eyes looked like they were about to burst.
Yang Shangyun reacted extremely quickly, unleashing his full power instantly, causing the space to shatter with a sound like a mirror breaking.
He wanted to break free from the spatial constraints, distance himself from Gu Qing, and fight to the death.
It wasn't that he was confident he could rival Gu Qing, nor that he wanted to avenge his son.
Rather, he knew very well that he had no chance of escaping from Gu Qing, who was proficient in the Dao of Space, and that his only option was to fight to the death.
But in the end, he overestimated himself.
Before Yang Shangyun could break free of his restraints, he was punched and exploded, spraying blood mist everywhere.
The Xuan Shen Law is immortal and indestructible, allowing him to instantly regain his physical body, though his strength was greatly reduced and his magical power dissipated.
"why?"
Yang Shangyun roared.
He asked himself if he had ever offended Gu Qing.
Why did Gu Qing kill them, father and son, without cause?
To say that his motives for joining the Boundless Divine Cult were impure is absurd; but who among those present didn't share the same motives?
As for whether it was because of Jiao Yanni and the other person, Yang Shangyun never even considered it.
Because in his mind, all those below the Xuan God are ants.
He didn't do anything to the two of them; they were the ones who offended him.
Logically speaking, Gu Qing should have killed these two people to uphold the majesty of the Xuan God, whose sacredness is inviolable.
"Boom!!!"
Too lazy to waste words, Gu Qing summoned the Mysterious Fire Mirror, enveloping it in world-destroying mystical light.
With his current strength, he can unleash the full power of the Mysterious Fire Mirror; anyone below the Immortal King level will die when it shines upon them.
“It’s over…” Seeing Gu Qing’s indifferent eyes, Yang Shangyun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He treated others like ants, and Gu Qing treated him like an ant too.
I felt my physical body, soul, and the laws of the Great Dao rapidly dissolving under the light of the Annihilation Mystic Light.
A sense of desolation rose in Yang Shangyun's heart: "After experiencing countless life-and-death trials, he still died because of greed."
He still couldn't understand why Gu Qing wanted to kill him.
But he knew that he would die because of greed.
If he hadn't wanted to reap the rewards without sowing, desired a Celestial King artifact, and sought to break through to the Pseudo-Celestial King level, he wouldn't have come from another celestial realm.
With his death, the Yang family will surely perish.
Even without Gu Qing taking action, the Xuan Shen family in his Heavenly Domain would not let the Yang family off the hook.
The immortal realm is a place where the strong prey on the weak, and where natural selection prevails.
The Yang family has seized so many resources; even if they hand them over with both hands, they are still doomed.
They will definitely be eradicated completely.
