The power of the new heavenly way sweeps across the universe like a huge wave, sweeping away everything and illuminating the sky.
However, as the Taoist Master turned into a ghost and could no longer guide the New Heavenly Dao, the New Heavenly Dao quickly disappeared and its light dissipated.
The vast starry sky returns to darkness.
And in the starry sky where the new Heavenly Dao swept through, there was no trace of Dao Mingzi.
There is only the ghost girl outside that starry universe, wandering helplessly, wanting to cry but having no tears.
Below, billions of ghosts were also looking at the starry sky, looking at the place where Dao Mingzi died!
At this moment, the actions of these hundreds of millions of ghosts were no longer restricted, but they watched Dao Mingzi's demise, but still stood there stiffly without making any move.
These hundreds of millions of ghosts had endless anger and resentment towards Dao Mingzi, but witnessing his death with their own eyes did not make them feel the slightest bit of pleasure.
Instead, an inexplicable sense of sadness arose in the hearts of the ghosts!
On the other side, the Taoist master's physical body has completely disappeared, leaving only the illusory soul!
He has been completely transformed into a ghost and has become a... ghost of will!
The Taoist Master also looked at the place where Dao Mingzi died. There was no sense of joy on his face, only endless gloom and coldness!
As the saying goes, the dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon. As a ghost hunter, he eventually became a ghost. There is no more ironic ending than this.
"I am the Lord of Dao. Even if I am a ghost, I am the only supreme ghost in this underworld!"
I don’t know if it’s because of his transformation into a ghost, but the Taoist’s voice has a bit more of the coldness of his essential existence, which matches his gloomy expression and illusory body.
This made the Taoist master look like a vicious and evil ghost!
Then, he shifted his gaze to the Hades Lady and spoke again.
"Daomingzi, you alone are not enough. I will destroy all your hopes and obsessions in this world!!"
The next moment, the Taoist master flew straight over, approached in a flash, raised his hand and pressed towards the top of the head of the Hades girl.
Before, the Taoist master had no intention of killing the Hades Lady, so he took great pains and spent a full three thousand years in the Light Ball World to suppress the Hades Lady and seal her up, leaving her for future devouring!
But now the Taoist master has turned into a ghost. He can no longer devour the Hades Girl, or even any ghosts in the underworld!
The monks devouring ghosts is the great rule that evolved after the birth of the new heaven!
All living beings and ghosts originated from the old Heavenly Way. To the new Heavenly Way, they are like a kind of filth, hindering its growth and development.
Therefore, this is actually a method evolved by the New Heavenly Dao using all the cultivators to eliminate all the ghosts in the underworld!
The Taoist master who has transformed into a ghost no longer belongs to the category of cultivators, so naturally he can no longer follow the rules of the evolution of the new Heavenly Dao, and can no longer devour ghosts!
The Taoist master knows the reason behind this very well!
So, he changed his mind!
Dao Mingzi’s death alone is not enough!
Only by completely killing the Lady of the Underworld can the Taoist master calm down his frustration and anger!
Facing the Taoist's palm, the Hades Girl seemed to have not noticed it at all and did not react at all. She was still looking straight at the place where Dao Mingzi disappeared.
However, given the extremely weak state of the Hades Girl now, even if she noticed, she would be unable to resist!
Or maybe she didn't want to resist at all!
Although the Taoist master is in a very weak condition at the moment, the injuries from the Great Dao are still there.
Especially after he turned into a ghost, he was fundamentally different. That feeling of strangeness was enough to drastically reduce his strength!
But he is a powerful man of the fifth ancient realm after all. His strength has long been extraordinary. After a short period of adaptation, he can still barely burst out the power of the fifth ancient realm.
It seemed that his big hand was about to imprint on the top of the Hades' head!
This powerful palm was enough to kill the Hades Girl who offered no resistance at all on the spot!
Suddenly, the will ghosts who discovered this scene roared, especially the two will ghost kings, who rushed out without hesitation and wanted to save the Hades Girl!
However, due to the previous appearance of Dao Mingzi and his death, they were distracted and when they discovered this scene, it was already too late!
Moreover, they were only half a step into the fifth ancient realm, and it was impossible for them to save the Lady of the Underworld from the Taoist master!
The goddess of the underworld has protected them for eternity and cleansed all their karma. She has long become a god in the hearts of all ghosts.
But at this moment, all the ghosts could only watch the Hades Lady die, which made their expressions ferocious. The sadness in their hearts became stronger and stronger. They roared and wailed, but it was of no use!
But at this moment, a powerful force that also belonged to the fifth ancient realm suddenly erupted in the distance!
The Taoist master's hand was only inches away from the Hades Girl, but with the explosion of that might, this inches became the end of the world!
The Taoist master's pupils suddenly condensed. It was obvious that the woman under his big hand was the Hades. She was within reach and infinitely close!
But suddenly, he felt that this infinitely close thing seemed to exist infinitely far away, so far that his big hand could not reach the head of the Hades no matter what!
"Finally... I caught up!"
A faint voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
Because of this voice, all the ghosts stopped roaring, including the two Ghost Kings of Will, who also stopped and looked at Gu Xiaoxing!
In the center of the ghosts, Gu Xiaoxing, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, slowly opened and closed his eyes at this moment!
Finally at this moment, his will was fully awakened!
Just as Gu Xiaoxing had thought before, as his will fully awakened, after endless years of settling down, his destiny was finally complete!
From then on, his path to the origin of eternal life was ranked among the great paths of the world, and he achieved... the path to the origin of eternal life!
His aura rose wildly, and he finally took the remaining half step and stepped into... the fifth ancient realm!
It was also from this moment that Gu Xiaoxing became completely different. An unprecedented sense of leisurely and carefreeness swept over him!
It seems like he can do anything!
It seems that any restraint cannot be a restraint for him!
It seems that he can do anything!
This kind of leisurely and carefree feeling, this feeling of being omnipotent, is called... great freedom!
On the other side, the Taoist master suddenly turned his head and looked fiercely towards where Gu Xiaoxing was!
This glance made the Taoist's pupils, which were already concentrated, shrink violently again.
If we say that before in the eyes of the Taoist Master, Gu Xiaoxing was just a somewhat special ghost, although he had some strength and even controlled the Tao.
But the avenue that Gu Xiaoxing controlled before was not the original avenue after all, even though this was also a means belonging to the fifth ancient realm.
But he himself was, after all, only half a step into the fifth ancient realm. The huge gap in realm limited him from posing too much threat to the Taoist master!
At this moment, in the eyes of the Taoist Master, Gu Xiaoxing suddenly turned into an extremely terrifying existence, making the Taoist Master feel an unprecedented palpitation!
This kind of palpitation made the Taoist master inexplicably think of those legendary powerful beings in the wilderness!
Like the ancient times, like the floating dust, like the Lord of the Underworld who once ruled the Netherworld!
But these beings have all reached the end of the fifth ancient realm. How can the person in front of me compare with them? !
Gu Xiaoxing smiled slightly, slowly stood up, and then looked at the Taoist master.
The reason why the Taoist master's hand could not fall was because of the thought that surged in Gu Xiaoxing's mind after he broke through the shackles.
One thought spans an inch, one thought encompasses an infinite space!
This is because Gu Xiaoxing used his heart to create an endless and distant boundary between the Taoist Master and the Nether Girl, using this boundary to separate them!
Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for the Taoist master to touch the Hades Girl again!
This kind of thing was something that Gu Xiaoxing couldn't do before, but now it's easy for him!
Under Gu Xiaoxing's gaze, the Taoist's illusory body began to tremble uncontrollably!
"Who are you?"
The Taoist master trembled as he asked this question.
Gu Xiaoxing did not hide it deliberately and replied: "I am just an illusory ghost that walked out of a dream. Like you, I am also in the fifth ancient realm...!"
“But, it’s slightly different!”
Then, Gu Xiaoxing pointed lightly, and a gray dust star appeared at his fingertips.
This gray dust star is also the Great Dao, the Great Dao of the Dust Star, besides the Great Dao of the Origin of the Eternal Life of the Lone Little Star!
Although Gu Xiaoxing had successfully comprehended the Great Way of Dust Star before, he had not yet reached the fifth ancient realm, so he was unable to fully display the power of the Great Way of Dust Star, and therefore could not truly compete with the fifth ancient realm!
And now...!
As the Dao dust star from Gu Xiaoxing's fingertip flew out and fell into the Dao Master's illusory body, it immediately caused his body to shake violently and then become even more illusory.
This change, on the contrary, made the Taoist's body stop trembling. He slowly withdrew his hand and no longer looked at the Dark Lady, but only at Gu Xiaoxing.
There was a sense of unwillingness in the Taoist master's eyes, but this unwillingness quickly began to dissipate.
As if knowing that his fate was already determined, all his reluctance turned into a sigh.
Finally, his entire body disappeared into the world along with this sigh!
This scene was just like what happened before when Gu Xiaoxing used the Endless Avenue Dust Star to make many ghost hunters disappear, making them go from life to death!
Perhaps the Taoist master in his prime could still put up a bit of resistance.
But now he was so weak that he was no longer able to resist and eventually died here!
Moreover, the Taoist master’s fall is different from those of ghost hunters.
After entering the fifth ancient realm, his existence itself has transformed into the Great Dao of Origin.
And Gu Xiaoxing completely destroyed its original avenue and killed it!
This also means that everything of the Taoist master will vanish into thin air, including the past, present, and future!!
This is... true death!
At the same time, this was the first time in Gu Xiaoxing's life that he had actually killed someone!
For the first time, to kill a person forever, to completely exterminate everything about him!!
After the Taoist master's death, the only ones left in this dark starry sky were Gu Xiaoxing, Mingnu, Fang Qingyun, and the ghosts!
All the ghosts looked at Gu Xiaoxing and worshipped him again.
But Gu Xiaoxing just shook his head. He neither avoided nor accepted the worship of the ghosts. He just cast his gaze at Fang Qingyun.
Finally, at this moment, Fang Qingyun's hands, which were tightly gripping the coffin, relaxed a little. She met Gu Xiaoxing's gaze, and a smile reappeared on her face.
Gu Xiaoxing also smiled, with infinite gentle light in his eyes, and then he slowly stretched out a hand.
Fang Qingyun immediately understood, then lifted her fair little feet and took a step forward.
The distance between her and Gu Xiaoxing was obviously very far, and with Fang Qingyun's level of cultivation, this one step was not enough to cross such a long distance.
But the moment Fang Qingyun raised her foot, the distance between her and Gu Xiaoxing seemed to be suddenly shortened, so close that she appeared beside Gu Xiaoxing with just one step.
But Fang Qingyun was only slightly surprised and did not ask. Instead, he looked at the big hand that Gu Xiaoxing stretched out, then stretched out his own small hand and clasped his fingers with it.
At this moment, Fang Qingyun's heart was completely at peace!
Gu Xiaoxing just held Fang Qingyun's hand, then turned around and walked towards the Hades.
At this moment, the body of the Hades is no longer as huge as before, and has returned to the size of a normal person.
Because she has no face, it is impossible to see what her expression is at the moment, but one can still feel her endless sadness and frustration at the moment.
"Maybe I can save him."
It was not until a voice sounded behind the Hades that she suddenly turned her head and looked at the two people who suddenly appeared beside her, and finally, her eyes focused on Gu Xiaoxing.
Whether it was because of excitement or fear, the body of the Hades Lady was shaking, and even her voice was trembling slightly.
"You...can save him?"
Gu Xiaoxing nodded and said, "I think it should be possible. This can be regarded as Qingyun and I repaying your kindness!"
Having said that, Gu Xiaoxing also understood that words are not enough, so he directly passed the specific method of saving Daomingzi to Mingnu through divine thoughts.
After reading the divine thoughts transmitted by Gu Xiaoxing, Mingnu shuddered all over, showing her excitement at the moment.
Then, she actually bowed directly to Gu Xiaoxing.
But Gu Xiaoxing took Fang Qingyun and avoided the bow of the Dark Lady, and then said: "I said, this is a favor, Qingyun and I owe you, no need to thank me."
After he finished speaking, Gu Xiaoxing slowly raised his hand, wanting to press down with Condensation in the air!
“Wait a minute…!”
But at this moment, the Hades Girl suddenly spoke and stopped Gu Xiaoxing from taking the next action.
Gu Xiaoxing glanced at Mingnu and said nothing.
The ghost girl had already turned her head and looked at the billions of ghosts in the distance. Suddenly, she murmured to herself, "I should have returned eons ago. Now I am a little tired of staying here for eons."
"If I can save him, I want to go back with my brother. If I can't save him, at least let my brother take one last look at me!"
As she spoke, the Lady of Hell took something out from her loose sleeves.
It was a very delicately embroidered bronze mirror, like the one a woman would use when dressing herself.
However, when the Hades held the bronze mirror, what was reflected in it was not her own face.
But through the mirror, you can see that underneath the mirror, there is a pair of beautiful eyes, a pair of moon-like ears, a delicate nose, and... a pair of red lips.
Afterwards, the Hades gently crushed the bronze mirror in her hand, and a stream of light immediately appeared from the broken bronze mirror.
All these streams of light flew towards the face of the Hades and merged into it!
Then on the face of the Hades girl, there appeared beautiful eyes, crescent ears, a delicate nose, and red lips!
In a blink of an eye, the Hades Lady was no longer the faceless woman, but had become a stunningly beautiful woman.
Her fairy-like temperament is no less than that of Fang Qingyun, who is born to be unconcerned with worldly affairs.
Finally, after having five facial features, the Hades Girl can show her facial expressions at will.
But the expression she revealed was only one of deep sadness.
Especially when looking at the ghosts, an extremely rich and complex feeling emerged in the eyes of the Hades Girl!
At the same time, all the ghosts saw the face of the Hades clearly. This face was extremely familiar to them. From the moment Dao Yu in the underworld turned into a ghost, it had been engraved in the memory of every ghost!
The next moment, anger and resentment appeared in the eyes of countless lonely ghosts, just like when they saw Dao Mingzi before.
This kind of resentment is their instinct, and it is the deepest hatred that remains in their memories after they become ghosts!
Even those will-ghosts could not avoid this kind of resentment!
But it was still different from the previous time they saw Dao Mingzi!
Even though there was resentment in the eyes of these ghosts, their bodies were not restrained by any force at this moment.
But the ghosts did not make any move. They did not have the crazy idea of ​​rushing up regardless of everything and eating his flesh and blood or even his soul!
Most of the ghosts were just roaring and roaring!
The ghost lady looked at the ghosts and the strong anger and resentment in their eyes. The complexity and sadness in her eyes became even deeper!
Gu Xiaoxing and Fang Qingyun looked at each other, but neither said anything.
It was still the Ghost Lady who spoke first. She said to the ghosts: "Eons ago, I told a lie that deceived you and myself...!"
"I have been living in this lie for so long that I almost took it as the truth, as my long-cherished wish!"
"But lies are always just lies...!"
Having said this, the ghost lady bent down and bowed to the ghosts.
"Today, as the daughter of the Underworld Lord of Daoming Court, on behalf of Daoming Court, the Underworld Lord, Daomingzi, and myself, I apologize to all the living ghosts in the underworld!!"
This bow shocked all the ghosts here, especially in the eyes of the will ghosts, there was a hint of painful struggle.
Suddenly, there were two earth-shattering roars, resounding throughout the universe.
These two roars came from the two Ghost Kings of Will. The painful struggle in their eyes was the most profound.
Then, they knelt down slowly towards the Lady of Hell with trembling bodies!
The pain and struggle in the eyes of these two Will Ghost Kings seemed to be contagious, causing the pain and struggle in the eyes of other Will Ghosts to gradually deepen.
Then these will ghosts let out terrifying roars and knelt down.
Until all the will ghosts knelt down, the group of lonely ghosts seemed to be affected as well, and they also prostrated themselves on the ground after roaring in pain!
The ghost lady raised her head slightly and stared at the scene in a daze. Her expression was dull because of the ghosts' kneeling.
As the source of this underworld Dao Yu's transformation into a ghost, these ghosts should hate her immensely.
But at this moment, the pain in the eyes of the ghosts was obviously greater than the hatred!
Suddenly, a tear fell from the eyes of the Hades Girl, but a smile appeared on her face!
It was a smile of relief!
Even Gu Xiaoxing and Fang Qingyun, who were standing by, couldn't help but look solemn, complicated and melancholy when they saw this scene.
Of course, the ghosts have hatred in their hearts, endless hatred, but since ancient times, the Goddess of the Underworld has protected the ghosts, purified their karma, and opened the reincarnation for them!
This made it impossible for them to hate the Lady of the Underworld!
Therefore, this endless hatred turns into the greatest pain in the world!
"Let's go!"
The ghost girl spoke softly.
She understood that it was time for her to leave. If she stayed any longer, it would only make the ghosts suffer more as they struggled with endless hatred!
The long-cherished wish that she had forced herself to realize should also come to an end!
Gu Xiaoxing nodded, then raised his hand and brought it down with a bang!
Suddenly, the moment of time where they were located sank instantly and was submerged into the river of time!
This is the Residual Star Sundial Technique!
Under this technique, the scenes in the eyes of the three people kept regressing.
They exist in this moment of time. Gu Xiaoxing is the source of this moment of time. He takes Fang Qingyun and Mingnu, and keeps flowing backwards in time, and sees the scenes that happened before!
But the Taoist master is no longer among them!
Finally, after a moment, the three of them saw Dao Mingzi again!
At this moment, Dao Mingzi is existing in this inch of past time, facing the wave formed by the power of the new Heavenly Dao!
This vast tide wants to completely obliterate Dao Mingzi! !
The wave formed by this new Heavenly Dao comes from the guidance of the Dao Master!
But the figure of the Taoist master no longer exists in the past moment!
Because he is really dead!
Whether in the past, present, or future, there will no longer be a Taoist master!
But obviously, Dao Mingzi is not really dead, so his past self still exists here!
However, Gu Xiaoxing’s Broken Star Sundial Technique is ultimately just a technique to travel to the past, while he is a person of the “present”!
Therefore, to Gu Xiaoxing and others, this passing moment was like a "dead object" and a frozen picture!
If Dao Mingzi had not died yet, he might have been able to sense the arrival of Gu Xiaoxing and others during the past time.
But Dao Mingzi is already dead, and the source of his "aliveness" has disappeared. He who exists in this past time is merely a trace of his existence, and not a real living being!
Therefore, it is difficult for the three people who came from the "present" time to do anything to Dao Mingzi!
This can be said to be a trace of Daomingzi's existence, or it can be said to be the memory of time!
Mingnu was originally a powerful being from the fifth ancient realm, so she naturally understood this point, but she was still excited to see Dao Mingzi again!
"elder brother……!"
With a call, the eyes of the Hades instantly turned red and tears welled up in her eyes.
But in this moment of time, Dao Mingzi did not respond!
Gu Xiaoxing and the other two were clearly standing in front of him, but he acted as if he didn't see them!
At this time, Gu Xiaoxing let go of Fang Qingyun's hand and stepped forward.
Wherever it passed, the tide condensed by the new Heavenly Dao separated itself, and a road was opened up. Gu Xiaoxing walked straight along this road and soon arrived in front of Dao Mingzi.
Gu Xiaoxing stared at Dao Mingzi silently. After a moment of deep thought, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed a finger at Dao Mingzi's brow!
In the beginning, the Three Desolate Turtle once told Gu Xiaoxing that if he had enough power, he could use his extraordinary means to go back to the past, pull out the dead, and let them live in the present.
Gu Xiaoxing couldn't do this in the past, and he can't do it now!
But Gu Xiaoxing always felt that he seemed to be able to do something else!
