CHAPTER 1001: CHAPTER 770: TOTAL ANNIHILATION (PART 3)

"The All World Alliance is finished. Dispersing and fleeing is the only slim chance for survival. Run for your life!"

Amidst exclamations, many Golden Immortals, carrying space-type and escape-type Immortal Artifacts, had already pierced through the void, intending to take the risk of being trapped in chaotic space currents to push forward and escape through the void.

"Leave? Did I say you could leave?"

Gu Jinlai’s figure moved.

The light of the Void Annihilation Sword spread.

Unlimited Annihilation Sword Qi!

Compared to Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi, although this Immortal Technique was slightly inferior in power, its activation speed was extremely fast.

And moreover...

The so-called slight inferiority only referred to it being less than satisfactory on the level of Supreme Golden Immortal competition. If used against ordinary Golden Immortals...

The record of Xuanyuan Sword Ancestor against nine opponents is the best example.

Now, holding the Supreme Immortal Sword, with Divine Sense Ability reaching the Tenth Rank, Gu Jinlai was much stronger than the Xuanyuan Sword Ancestor of those days.

"Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!"

The sword light spread!

The void around Gu Jinlai seemed to be cut into dozens of pieces.

But this cutting was not like Chi Tianyuan’s Void Annihilation Sword which divides space into portions, but rather a black trail left by tearing through space.

Every extension of the black trail was inevitably accompanied by the annihilation of the Immortal Body of a Great Dao Golden Immortal.

This Great Dao, specifically for slaughter and destruction, exerted its pure Power of Destruction to the fullest.

...

In the distance, the remnants of the Golden Immortal Alliance—Qing Qiong, Lan Kong, and Qing Ye from the Lianshan Alliance—watched those black trails pass through the void like scars, feeling a constant surge of chilliness all over their bodies.

Originally, when the situation looked unfavorable, they had planned to escape.

However, the situation turned unexpectedly. Gu Jinlai, through some unknown means, suddenly seized the Great Darkness Heaven, the Immortal Immortal Instrument, from Yuan Wuji, and immediately unleashed a strike to blast him apart, ignoring the change in his Immortal Technique.

Before they could decide on their next move, a ruthless slaughter unfolded before them.

And the slaughter wasn’t Golden Immortal against Profound Immortal, nor Immortal against mortal, but...

A single Golden Immortal massacring dozens of other Golden Immortals.

This terrifying scene startled the people of the Golden Immortal Alliance, abruptly bringing them to their senses.

They...

Had to make a decision quickly and clearly state their stance.

"Kill! Assist the Ancient Golden Immortal, defeat the All World Alliance!"

"What Ancient Golden Immortal! It’s Lord Gu! Alliance Leader Gu! Alliance Leader Gu saved all our lives! We owe him a debt of gratitude that can’t be repaid. From now on, all of us in the Golden Immortal Alliance are willing to follow Lord Gu’s orders!"

"The brutal rule of the All World Alliance over the Xuanhuang Star Domain should be ended by the Ancient Golden Immortal! Charge! Leave no one alive!"

One by one, Golden Immortals from the Golden Immortal Alliance suddenly made their moves, joining the fray.

With this, the remnant forces of the All World Alliance had no hope for survival.

Even the other Vice Alliance Hierarch, Han Yu, could not evade Gu Jinlai’s grasp and fell under the Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi.

From then on, the All World Alliance could be said to be leaderless.

...

Half a day later.

Gu Jinlai swept his empty hand, bringing an Immortal Artifact into his grasp.

Qing Qiong, Lan Kong, Qing Ye, Dao Yuan, and others watched from afar, not daring to overstep by even half a step.

After Gu Jinlai had collected his spoils, Qing Qiong, as the leader of the Golden Immortal Alliance, came forward and handed over a dozen Immortal Artifacts, including storage-type Immortal Artifacts: "Our Golden Immortal Alliance has annihilated nine Golden Immortals from the All World Alliance and all seized materials are listed here for Lord Gu to inspect."

Gu Jinlai wasn’t courteous with these people from the Golden Immortal Alliance either.

The All World Alliance was no good, but the Golden Immortal Alliance was not necessarily noble either.

Without the Golden Immortal Alliance’s assistance in this battle, he could have, with his own power and the mystery of Universe Light Without Boundary, pursued and hunted them down. He might not have wiped out all the Golden Immortals from the All World Alliance, but more than half would not escape unscathed.

What belonged to him, he would not hesitate to claim.

"The Golden Immortal Alliance is grateful for Lord Gu’s life-saving grace. From now on, we are willing to look to Lord Gu for orders, and hope Lord Gu will accept us."

Qing Qiong bowed deeply.

Not only her, but many Golden Immortals behind her also cupped their hands: "We wish to be the forerunner for Lord Gu and hope Lord Gu will accept us."

Gu Jinlai glanced through the eyes of everyone present.

Although these people one by one claimed they would act according to his orders, many were constrained by the circumstances and might not truly intend to serve him.

And he had no interest in playing mind games with them. He spoke bluntly: "You all have established your Great Dao, and it isn’t easy to cultivate into a Golden Immortal. If you have other plans or intentions to explore the Heart of the Cosmic, feel free to do so. There is no need to force yourselves to serve me. I am now heading to the headquarters of the All World Alliance. After I finish resolving the All World Alliance, consider your options and give me a definitive answer."

With that said, he didn’t linger and directly launched the Star Shuttle, breaking the sky far away.

Seeing Gu Jinlai leave without any hesitation, Qing Qiong, Lan Kong, Qing Ye, Dao Yuan, and others exchanged glances.

After a long while, Qing Qiong, the leader of the Golden Immortal Alliance, finally spoke: "Everyone... what are your thoughts?"

"The Heart of the Cosmic is indeed desirable, but there are many strong adversaries there, and it is at the frontline facing the Evil God, making it extremely perilous. Perhaps there are more opportunities there, but with my current cultivation... I won’t strive with those top-tier Golden Immortals, Supreme Golden Immortals, or even Immortal Dao Venerables. Therefore, I plan to remain in the Xuanhuang Star Domain. At the very least, as long as we don’t have the bad luck to encounter an Evil God, with our cultivation, we are already at the top of this Star Domain."

"Better to be a head among chickens than a tail among phoenixes. I cultivated into a Great Dao Golden Immortal to enjoy life. If I as a Great Dao Golden Immortal have to continue fighting for immortality, cultivation, and status like before, then why did I struggle so hard before? I could have wielded power in a mortal city after I became an Immortal."
