I Am the Fated Villain
chapter-863

Gu Changge was sitting cross-legged deep within the Divine Empire, looking like an Eternal and Everlasting Divine God.

The hazy fog shrouded his figure. The silhouette of the River of Time could vaguely be seen behind him before vanishing from view.

The waves churned after being boosted by Immortal Essence. The Grand Flask appeared with three Dao Flowers hovering within it. Every single flower contained a blurry figure who was sitting cross-legged. Each one was exalted through the ages.

Gu Changge had refined the drop of True Blood that the Demon Lord left at the bottom of the Demon-Burying Abyss. It had produced a blood diamond of pure red that contained unparallel secrets, which could be further refined.

This had been left behind by the thoughts of the Demon Lord and Qingyi when they set up their plan to destroy the Mountains and Oceans True World. It contained all of the Demon Lord’s abilities at the time.

No one except for Gu Changge knew about this drop of True Blood, which was an extremely important part of his plan.

During the Forbidden Epoch, the Demon Lord had infuriated the rulers of the Source Realm, and the Demon Lord’s True Body had erased him with a single thought.

It led to him reincarnating, using the abnormal identity of a Transmigrator to escape the karma tied to his deeds as a Demon Lord.

At the time, the Demon Lord possessed the cultivation that Transcended the Immortal Realm. He was truly an Everlasting being. No living being in the entire True World could kill him.

Therefore, Gu Changge planned to combine the three Dao Flowers and unite the past, present, and future selves into one. Then, he would breakthrough. Once he completed refining the drop of True Blood, he would have taken another step towards becoming a Transcendent.

His present cultivation was insufficient for him to gather the timelines and achieve a true Immortal and Everlasting life, one who could disperse all calamities with just a single thought.

Right now, even if he ran into an Immortal Emperor, he could hold his own against such an opponent.

Nevertheless, considering the present state of the Mountains and Oceans True World, it seemed unlikely for an Immortal Emperor to exist, this included the other regions of the Immortal Domain.

Gu Changge had tried to comprehend the various Daos and karma of the Mountains and Oceans True World. He observed how the Great Dao evolved and formed the three thousand Daos.

He could see the Principles of the Immortal Domain and the Upper Realm colliding. It could be said that a reaction was happening all across the world. The barriers of the Upper Realm were changing.

This change was further fuelled by the people from various Forces trying to use the Path of the Primordial Nirvana to find their own opportunity to reach the Nirvana Realm.

Gu Changge shifted his focus back to the task at hand.

As the one and only drop of True Blood of the Demon Lord hovered in the void like a crystal. It seemed to turn into a blood-red fog as Gu Changge refined and absorbed it.

Not only did it contain the abilities of the Demon Lord who was a Transcendent, but it also included the incredible Source of a Transcendent.

It could help Gu Changge truly transcend the Immortal Realm faster.

Apart from the drop of True Blood, the System formed out of Heaven’s Source could also help him.

However, in Gu Changge’s case, the System was simply something that suited the identity of a Transmigrator. He simply used it as an aid in his early days. Right now, the System was more akin to a key that could undo the locks at suitable moments to enable him to regain his past memories.

“To possess all Absolute Detachment Bones before becoming a Transcendent…”

Gu Changge looked within him. He could see strange traces weaving around all 206 of his bones that were faintly suppressing the Great Dao. They were profound, majestic, boundless, and impossible to describe.

The Absolute Detachment Bone was far superior to the Celestial Bone. It enabled a being to survive any calamity. Even if the True World got destroyed, that being would not perish.

Nothing in all of Heaven could destroy a being who was Transcendent.

To be a Transcendent meant that one had transcended all of time, space, existence, karma, Principles, and destiny. A Transcendent possessed might above everything in existence.

A Transcendent lived on a plane entirely different from that of Immortals.

In the eyes of a Transcendent, the so-called True Worlds were merely toys to play with. They could turn everything into a dot or a line. They could freeze time, reverse it, and even move into the future.

They could play with time however they wish without having to suffer even the tiniest bit of karmic consequences.

In the eyes of a Transcendent, even powerful Immortal Emperors were no different from ordinary Humans or even ants. An Immortal Emperor did not exist on the same level as a Transcendent.

That being said, it was impossibly difficult for a Transcendent to emerge. It required unimaginable opportunities and Fortuity.

Even if one had comprehended all the truths and mysteries of this world, one could not become a Transcendent if one did not possess the right opportunity.

The number of True Worlds who birthed a Transcendent could be counted on one hand.

And, in every one of those True Worlds, the Transcendent basically became the supreme overlord. It was impossible to imagine just how powerful they were. Even during the Great Purge, they would have the power to save themselves by hiding within the cycle of reincarnation. They would not be vanquished.

Transcendents were fully aware of the truth of existence. They understood karma and knew the reasons behind the Great Purge. Therefore, they could formulate a plan against it.

During the most flourishing era of Mountains and Oceans True World, the True World where Gu Changge was, no true Transcendent had been born.

Even Qingyi, the True Spirit, lacked the unimaginable opportunity it took to go down that path.

Many supreme experts of the True Worlds deduce that the opportunity was related to Fortuity.

It was hard to ascertain the origin of that strange and mysterious power that could not be seen, but it could anoint people with terrifying abilities.

As Gu Changge observed the Upper Realm, he could sense the changes in the growing Fortuity.

“In times of chaos, unexpected young prodigies would always be born. These young prodigies would not only possess startling Physiques but they would also have shocking comprehension abilities. If they were to be given enough time, this world would flourish even more.”

In many areas, the older generation was exclaiming to themselves. They could sense that this was a golden era. Under the rule of the Divine Empire, the Upper Realm was no longer in decline. Its Fortuity boomed as many young prodigies emerged like the seeds sprouting after a rain shower.

Throughout these years, numerous promising young prodigies emerged across all the ancient worlds and universes. They had the potential to become Immortals.

Some received heavenly signs before they were born. Others broke through certain cultivation realms even in their youth. Their names were added to the Heavenly Dao Stele, and they became known throughout the lands.

One day, Gu Changge suddenly had a feeling. He looked towards the direction of the Saintess Palace with astonishment in his eyes.

“Chuchu has reach the Nirvana Realm?”

Though he was a little startled, after giving it some thought, he did not find it surprising. Jiang Chuchu possessed the best aptitude for she had Nine Immortal Souls Talent. The moment she was born, she already possessed Quasi-Sacred Realm cultivation that made her superior to all her peers.

Over the years, she remained inside the Mortal Palace and focused on her cultivation without giving any attention to worldly matters, so naturally, she was able to rise through the cultivation realms extremely quickly.

Furthermore, due to the unique characteristics of her Divine Techniques, she was able to use the Heavenly Dao Symbol to obtain her opportunity to become a True Daoist more easily.

Gu Changge did not forget about the time Jiang Chuchu risked her life to visit him at the Gu Family in an attempt to see through his real and fake identities.

At the time, the forbidden, mysterious palace within her Knowledge Sea also caused quite a bit of trouble for him. He had to be cautious of it.

Gu Changge withdrew from his thoughts and got to his feet. He took a step forward and immediately appeared inside the Saintess Palace.

Jiang Chuchu was at the pivotal moment of becoming a True Daoist, but she still lacked the final step.

Due to the reestablished connection between the Immortal Domain and the Upper Realm, the Heavenly Tribulations that had disappeared for countless epochs finally returned. However, the Heavenly Tribulation could not descend.

No matter how long Jiang Chuchu waited, the Heavenly Tribulations did not arrive.
