Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 778: The Great Wilderness Territory, Stop the Foreign Invaders

The blue flame spread out like a curtain, and the flowing flames seemed to weave an indestructible barrier, firmly protecting everyone in the wilderness on the ground.

Those monks from the Lingxiao Realm who landed from the Haotian ship were hit by the blue flames, and their figures were violently twisted in the flames. In the blink of an eye, they evaporated like melting wax, without even a trace of ash left.

Among these people, there are saints of the seventh realm and even true masters of the eighth realm. Their daily gestures can make the heaven and earth tremble.

But at this moment, in front of this deep and blazing blue flame, their bodies were as fragile as thin paper and turned into nothingness in an instant.

This scene was surprisingly similar to the moment when the golden light swept across the wilderness.

Only the offensive and defensive positions have changed and the roles have been reversed.

All the people in the Great Wilderness looked up and saw a green figure standing on fire in the sky, surrounded by flames, like a god descending to the earth, shocking everyone.

They couldn't believe that the emperor who had sacrificed his life to save the wilderness several years ago would appear before them alive in this desperate situation.

After all, even powerful True Lords like Luochuan and Zhao Changying had asserted that the late emperor's soul had long been completely annihilated by the backlash of the Great Dao, leaving not even a trace of the chance of reincarnation.

For a moment, everyone felt as if they were in a dream, and some even suspected that everything before their eyes was just an illusion before they died.

"The late emperor..."

Some people choked and whispered, their eyes filled with awe and excitement.

But they soon realized that "the late emperor" was a term used to refer to someone who had passed away, and it was disrespectful to use it to describe the living being before them.

What should we call it then?

His Majesty?

The Supreme Emperor?
But after thinking about it, it’s not suitable after all.

Just as everyone was hesitating, someone suddenly raised his arms and shouted, "Long live the Emperor!"

This loud shout was like a thunder, awakening everyone from their stupor.

Crowds of people from all directions knelt down, facing the green figure in the sky, and shouted in unison: "Long live the Emperor!"

The sound was like a tide, rolling up and shaking the heaven and earth, as if to spread this endless reverence throughout the sky.

Amid the crowd's cheers, Gu Xu felt the rising incense, which turned into an invisible force flowing towards him.

These forces gathered in the air, like thousands of threads, instantly outlining his skeleton, condensing his flesh and blood, and weaving his skin.

The reshaped body was stronger than his body before death, and it seemed as if it was a work of god, exquisite and flawless.

The power surged through his limbs and bones, vast and endless, as if there was a boundless ocean in his body, with surging tides and endless power.

"It feels so good to have a body." Gu Xu sighed silently in his heart.

As powerful beings in the ninth realm, it is not difficult to become one with the world. They can exist in a purely conceptual or energy form, no longer bound by entities.

Like Taishang Haotian, he exists in the form of a ball of light.

However, Gu Xu was always accustomed to the human body.

For him, having a flesh and blood body not only makes him feel more comfortable and at ease, but most importantly, only by having a physical body can he open his arms and embrace those he loves and who love him.

Because of this, the moment after his resurrection, he rebuilt a body for himself without hesitation.

When he regained his flesh and blood, he immediately felt more clearly the emotions of all living beings contained in the power of incense - there was the relief of surviving the calamity, the excitement of witnessing the arrival of the savior, and the admiration and awe from the heart... These complex and profound emotions resonated with his authority over "all living beings", like small streams merging into a river, blending into each other and becoming one.

This feeling made him more and more convinced that the path he had chosen in the past was not wrong.

The so-called "method of enlightenment" in books is not the only correct answer, and indifference is not the only way to the great way.

To gather the power of human incense and become the true master of the world, one must first live like a human being.

…………

Tai Shang Haotian in the sky watched as the situation underwent a drastic reversal in just this short moment.

Although he had long abandoned emotions, when he saw Gu Xu's resurrection and his plan to destroy the Great Wilderness failed, the golden light couldn't help but tremble slightly, flickering.

He tried to imitate Gu Xu's actions just now, manipulate the rules of the Great Dao, and try to resurrect those dead monks from the Lingxiao Realm.

Among these people, including Tong Changfeng, Tong Qinghe and other generals, many are the backbone of the Heavenly Palace.

Now, they were wiped out by Gu Xu without any effort. Although this was not a serious blow to Tai Shang Haotian, it was definitely a loss that could be completely ignored.

However, Tai Shang Haotian's power was completely blocked by Gu Xu's blue flame and could not break through at all.

Even the projection of the Lingxiao Realm in the sky was dissipating bit by bit. The inverted illusory world was dispelled by the flames like smoke, and finally disappeared silently into nothingness.

"No foreign invaders enter our Great Wilderness territory."

Gu Xu looked at the ball of light transformed by Tai Shang Hao Tian and spoke in a calm but unquestionable tone.

Although his voice was not loud, it contained awe-inspiring power and echoed between heaven and earth. It was as resounding as an oracle and made all things hold their breath.

The moment the words fell, the authority of "all living beings" was activated.

Blue flames suddenly shot up from the ground to the sky, as if injected with life.

Looking closely, clear human faces emerged from the flames - old people, children, monks, and civilians. Each face had a different expression - either pain and anger, or hope and faith.

The human faces transformed from flames seemed to be whispering something, and their voices gathered into a torrent, shaking the universe.

Gradually, these human faces turned into human-shaped phantoms condensed by blue flames. They stood in the void, their eyes like torches, staring directly at the Haotian ship of the Lingxiao Realm, as if all living beings had awakened from the flames and rushed away with monstrous anger.

The blue flame phantom waved its arms, and the flames swept like the sea, instantly engulfing the Haotian warship suspended in the air. Those huge warships that once dominated the void and conquered many worlds crumbled like sand, and eventually turned into ashes all over the sky and disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, the golden light transformed by Taishang Haotian was also surrounded by those flaming humanoids.

The flames kept shrinking the encirclement, squeezing his territory bit by bit. Wherever the blue flames passed, the golden light gradually dimmed and became shaky.

"How did he come back to life?"

"His soul has long been annihilated, and even his body and burial objects have been completely destroyed by me. How could he be alive again?"

"Also, we are both at the ninth level, and I was promoted earlier than him, so why is his power so strong?"

"Why am I almost powerless in the face of his power of the Tao?"

"……Why?"

A series of questions swirled in Tai Shang Haotian's mind.
