Chapter 6049: The Changes in God’s Era

“I have a plan.

“Elder, you’ll first secretly construct a gu assimilation formation inside your soul, then openly construct a gu eradication formation. You’ll feign resignation and pretend that you’re going to bring down the gu together with Elder Second Daoist. That will make the gu panic.

“Following that, you’ll put on a weak front to lure the gu into your body,” Chu Feng said.

Daoist First Dragon nodded.

He was already at his wits’ end, so he could only follow Chu Feng’s instructions and hoped that it would work out. So, they went ahead to execute the plan.

Daoist First Dragon first secretly constructed the gu assimilation formation inside of him. Just as he finished the formation, Daoist Second Dragon started to lose consciousness.

Daoist First Dragon then proceeded to construct the gu eradication formation and began his act.

“This damned gu! You want to kill my brother and scourge the world? Dream on! I won’t let him become your puppet even if it means killing him myself!” Daoist First Dragon sneered viciously as he activated the gu eradication formation.

Tremendous spirit power gushed out from the gu eradication formation, forming countless sharp blades reminiscent of needles. These sharp blades plunged into Daoist Second Dragon’s body.

Daoist First Dragon looked determined to kill the gu together with Daoist Second Dragon.

The gu suffered immense damage, and its screams grew shrill. If its earlier screams were war cries intended to intimidate, its current screams were out of pain.

Under Daoist First Dragon’s bombardment, it didn’t take long for Daoist Second Dragon to be put on the verge of death. The gu also suffered severe damage as a result.

Pu!

The gu eradication formation suddenly stopped, and Daoist First Dragon crumbled to his knees. He tried his best to hold it back, but he failed and ended up spurting large mouthfuls of blood.

The gu exploited this opening to leap from Daoist Second Dragon’s mouth into Daoist First Dragon’s mouth. It knew that Daoist First Dragon would continue channeling the gu eradication formation once he recovered, and that would spell its end.

Rather than waiting for its death, it would rather make use of this opportunity to occupy Daoist First Dragon’s body.

The moment the gu entered his body, Daoist First Dragon immediately sat down and activated the gu assimilation formation.

Jip jip jip jip!

Screams far shriller than before reverberated in the realm.

The gu realized that it had been tricked. Daoist First Dragon was faking it. He had secretly constructed a gu assimilation formation beforehand, and he was simply waiting for it to leap into his body to activate it.

At the same time, Chu Feng rushed over to the two daoists. He stuffed a huge bunch of medicine into Daoist Second Dragon’s mouth and helped him assimilate it.

Daoist Second Dragon was in a terrible condition. Daoist First Dragon had to inflict severe damage on Daoist Second Dragon to convince the gu to leave the latter’s body.

Clang!

A copper bowl suddenly landed in front of Chu Feng.

Chu Feng looked conflicted. He detected formidable defensive and offensive prowess from the copper bowl, but it was not directed outward but inward.

“Young friend Chu Feng, please cover me with the copper bowl. You can’t let that gu get out and harm others even if I fail to assimilate the gu,” Daoist First Dragon said.

Their plan might have worked, but it would take a long time to assimilate the gu, and there was the risk of failure too.

With a sigh, Chu Feng channeled his spirit power into the copper bowl, causing it to expand to over a hundred meters wide, before placing it over Daoist First Dragon. He then dragged Daoist Second Dragon to the side and constructed a recovery formation for him.

This was all he could do with his limited strength.

Daoist Second Dragon was out cold due to the severity of his injuries, but it was only a matter of time before he recovered. The one who was truly in danger was Daoist First Dragon.

“Brother, l-l-look! Something is h-h-happening to God’s Era!” Wang Qiang suddenly exclaimed.

Chu Feng flitted over to the window to look outside.

The dantian of God’s Era’s humongous silhouette initially served as the entrance, but it later morphed into a mirror that reflected the happenings inside God’s Era.

The mirror had stopped reflecting the situation inside God’s Era. Tremendous spirit power gathered around the mirror to manifest gigantic, translucent chains. These chains were as thick as a smaller realm, and the surroundings would quake whenever they rattled.

Soon, the chains sealed up the mirror.

The remaining spirit power manifested into a humongous incense stick, which was as thick as the chains, above the mirror. This incense stick was translucent too, and it had already started burning down.

“I-I-I have never seen such a huge incense stick! B-b-but what does this mean?” Wang Qiang exclaimed.

“It signifies that God’s Era has closed, and those inside can’t come out now,” Chu Feng replied.

“T-t-that’s for the chains, but what about the i-i-incense stick?” Wang Qiang asked.

“It should be a countdown. I’m guessing that when the incense stick burns down, the chains wrapping around the mirror will either unravel, or those who failed to escape before then will die inside,” Chu Feng replied.

“It’s a g-g-good thing we gave up. We b-b-brothers made the right decision,” Wang Qiang said gleefully.

It was then that the sealed mirror began to project something. It was a relief that the chains were translucent, so the crowd could see through the chains to see what was on the mirror.

The mirror reflected yet another sight of outer space, but the different brightness of the stars suggested that it was a different place. Some stars blazed as brightly as the sun. Some radiated a golden light. Some were shrouded in seven-colored auras.

The stars were surging in the same direction as if they were racing toward a common destination. The one with a massive lead over the others was a star shrouded in seven-colored auras.

“H-h-heavens! What does this m-m-mean? Are they competing over a treasure? How is Jie Tianran t-t-that fast?” Wang Qiang exclaimed.

These stars bore a striking resemblance to the phenomena induced earlier when those in God’s Era ascended Heaven Stairway, so the crowd thought that the stars represented those who had ascended into the spirit formation gate earlier.

“Forget it. We have already left God’s Era. Whatever happens has nothing to do with us.”

Chu Feng glanced at Daoist First Dragon and Daoist Second Dragon.

He wrote a letter and placed it beside Daoist Second Dragon. It was to fill the latter in about what happened after he succumbed to the gu, so that he could get up to date on the situation once he regained consciousness.

Chu Feng was planning to leave this place.

He didn’t have the means to help Daoist First Dragon and Daoist Second Dragon; they would have to overcome this crisis on their own. The other daoists wouldn’t be of help to them either due to the vast difference in their spirit power.

“I’ll first head to the Pill Dao Immortal Sect.”

Having made up his mind, Chu Feng left this place with Wang Qiang.

“B-b-brother, the Totem Galaxy is there,” Wang Qiang reminded him.

“Normal teleportation formations are too slow. I have a shortcut.”

...

Meanwhile, nine figures were standing in Totem Galaxy’s space. They were dressed in the same black robe with a lightning mark, and they carried a black rectangular wooden box on their backs.

They were from the Huangfu Heavenly Clan.

Eight of them were white-haired elders, and they gave off an air of loftiness. One could sense their tremendous strength even without them exerting their cultivation.

It would be foolish to underestimate any one of them.
