Simultaneous travel: My sons all have the qualities of an emperor

Chapter 436 Pili Puppet Show, the People Suffer
Gu Ming transmigrated, bringing with him the strongest righteous system to a martial arts world.

The so-called strongest righteous system is one where the system issues tasks, or the host performs acts of chivalry, and in return, one can exchange them for martial arts techniques from worlds like Wen Gu Jin Liang.

The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Techniques, the Demon Seed of the Dao Heart, the Nine Swords of Dugu, the War God's Manual—a whole host of martial arts techniques are available, leaving one overwhelmed and captivated.

Besides martial arts skills, you can also exchange for the so-called rare treasures in these worlds.

Furthermore, through the system, one can integrate all the martial arts learned into a unified set of martial arts with a single click, making it the ultimate version of a Frankenstein's monster.

Therefore, Gu Ming was all smiles when he first learned that he had a system.

However, when he learned that the place he was in was called the Bitter Realm, and that he was the sole disciple of a fallen sect among the four great martial arts sects in the Bitter Realm, Gu Ming felt a sudden jolt in his heart, but he still didn't think too deeply about it.

Until he inadvertently stumbled into the world of martial arts, just as he was about to perform acts of chivalry, he saw a white-haired man wielding a sword and reciting poetry like a great scholar:

"Half god, half saint, half immortal, a complete Confucian and Taoist is a complete sage. With a mind full of ten thousand volumes of true books, he controls half the civil and military affairs."

With a single sword strike, half of the mountain was dented. Only then did Gu Ming realize that this was the world of Pili Puppet Theater!

At that moment, Gu Ming almost couldn't catch his breath and nearly kicked his legs and died.

In the world of martial arts, in terms of sheer power, it's almost impossible to find a world higher than Pili Puppet Theater.

Even the Shattered Void in Huang Yi's books is nothing more than a junior in the Pili Puppet Show.

The world of Pili Puppet Theater, though described as a martial arts world, is actually no different from a high-fashion martial arts world.

This world has four realms: suffering, origination, cessation, and the path; it is vast and expansive, like a universe.

Moreover, there are countless so-called martial arts masters, whose strength is like that of immortals and gods, and who can even travel through time under certain conditions.

If one achieves a certain level of mastery in the martial arts, moving mountains and overturning seas, astral projection, and creating external avatars are all minor paths. At the pinnacle of cultivation, one can even substitute one's own heart for the will of Heaven, performing acts of world destruction and creation, just like the Way of Heaven.

In addition to humans, there are also demons and monsters, with different races vying for supremacy.

Even more outrageous is the existence of alien forces, and even weapons and tools resembling modern technology.

In short, this world is truly vast, containing everything from martial arts and karma to immortals, gods, demons, and monsters.

In this absurd world, Gu Ming can only rely on the righteous system, and it's even a low-level martial arts version.

Fortunately, the system can even integrate martial arts from the Pili Puppet Show world. Therefore, with the max-level divine skills given by the system, Gu Ming started by clearing out the mobs, and then acquired martial arts and resources. He made quite a name for himself and gained considerable strength.

But then the system started causing trouble again, giving him one mission after another, sending him to fight against one dark force after another, and to become the righteous leader of the martial arts world.

So Gu Ming had no choice but to start running around, getting involved in all the affairs of the martial arts world, fighting demons with swords and spears, upholding justice, helping the weak, and fighting alone across three thousand states, his palms sweeping away all enemies in the world.

He grows stronger through repeated participation, and through the fusion of martial arts techniques and his own talent, he defeats all powerful enemies.

He was thus hailed as the leader of the righteous path, and his charisma surpassed that of Su Huanzhen, the most popular character in Pili Puppet Show. He also made many friends and gained a sense of belonging to this world.

But then another deadly thing happened. As time went on, after preventing the Six Calamities Azure Dragon from unifying the human world, dismantling the Purple Radiance Dynasty, destroying Hell Island, and repelling the calamity of the Demon Realm.

The system has issued a new and final mission: to prevent the birth of the former number one war god of the celestial realm, now the Demon Emperor, the god of destruction and regeneration—the Abandoned Heaven Emperor.

If we cannot stop it, then we must find a way to defeat it and protect all living beings.

When Gu Ming saw it, he was stunned. To put it simply, the difficulty of this mission was like putting Tyson and Taro in a boxing match.

After all, who is the Abandoned Emperor? Don't be fooled by Gu Ming's current strength, which is among the top in the righteous path. When he encounters the Abandoned Emperor, he is like a fragile porcelain doll, easily broken.

The existence of the Abandoned Emperor is arguably the most powerful demon king in the history of Pili. In the original work, his true form never descended to the human world, simply because he was too powerful. Immortals, gods, demons, and even the heavens did not allow it, and the whole world resisted him.

Therefore, there is only one way for him to descend to the mortal realm: to have his demons create a Holy Demon Embryo to bear part of his spiritual consciousness.

Therefore, Gu Ming hurriedly summoned the heroes of the righteous path and tried every means to stop the demon realm from sending the Holy Demon Embryo into the human world, and also made a great statement about the power of the Abandoned Heaven Emperor.

However, this is an era of great contention. These geniuses and experts, who are rare to come in thousands of years, have all gathered together. Each of them is proud and arrogant, and some even want to see how capable the Abandoned Emperor really is.

Driven by this mindset and the inexplicable forces of Heaven, even though Gu Ming acted like a firefighter, rushing around the martial arts world to stop the demon realm, he still managed to successfully create the Holy Demon Embryo.

On that day, the Abandoned Emperor attempted to control the Sword Pavilion Master, and the world-renowned swordsman Zhao Yunshang used the Red Pavilion Sword Pavilion's divine weapon, the Wheel of Time, to sever the second pillar of the Divine Land located in the Hidden Azure Cloud Land.

The so-called pillars of China are the source that supports the earth and protects it from easy invasion by the outside world.

When this pillar collapsed, the land of China was suddenly split in two, shaking the world and creating a fissure that stretched for tens of millions of miles.

The gate to another world opened, and flames soared into the sky above the earthly demon city, as the god of the otherworld officially descended upon the mortal realm.

At this moment, the world is in grave danger. Feeling that incomparably powerful aura, the righteous figures regretted not listening to Gu Ming's words.

At this moment, Gu Ming felt the extremely powerful aura from afar in the Pan Yin Divine Palace. His face was ashen, and even Su Huanzhen, Yi Ye Shu and the others were obviously silent.

"Brother Gu, all our efforts have been in vain. What should we do now?" Even Su Huanzhen, who was usually so confident, couldn't help but feel lost when facing an opponent like the Abandoned Emperor.

Before Gu Ming could answer, a disciple came to report: "Reporting to all lords, the Abandoned Heaven Emperor has destroyed the physical body of the top expert Xuanmo in the realm of consciousness and eliminated enemies from all sides. He is now heading to the third pillar of the Divine Continent."

"At this time, many experts have already set off, intending to hide on the path they must take to slay the demon for the sake of the common people."

Gu Ming's expression changed drastically: "Brother Su, the Abandoned Emperor is the greatest expert in history, and he is no match for human strength. Please send someone to inform all those who are determined to fight against him not to rush in blindly, but to proceed slowly."

Su Huanzhen sensed the violent demonic energy from tens of thousands of miles away. It was an undisguised and unrestrained aura that proclaimed its power to the world.

It was as if he was telling the world, "I am here. If anyone thinks they can stop me, come and face them all."

“Brother Gu, I understand what you mean, but now that the Abandoned Emperor has lost the third pillar of the Divine Continent, if all the pillars of the Divine Continent are destroyed, then the mortal world will also be destroyed. Now the arrow is on the bowstring and we have no choice but to release it. If we do nothing, all living beings will also face certain death.”

Gu Ming remained silent upon hearing this, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Su, you can trust me. I have a method that might be able to resist the Abandoned Emperor. Although the odds of winning are extremely low, there is still some hope. However, it requires the help of the world."

Su Huanzhen's eyes lit up. He had known Gu Ming for a long time and knew his personality well. Although he was sometimes unreliable, everything he did was for the righteous cause and for the sake of the common people.

"Brother Gu, please speak freely."

"I have had a talent since childhood: the ability to instantly integrate all the martial arts I have learned. If Brother Su can persuade the major powers in the world..."

"The martial arts sects, the three major religions, and the remnants of past dynasties have all shown me their martial arts manuals. Perhaps I will have a chance to fight against the Abandoned Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Su Huanzhen pondered for a moment, then recited the secrets of his martial arts, the essence of his entire martial arts system. If an enemy were to overhear this, they could find his weaknesses and defeat him in one fell swoop.

Upon hearing this, the system immediately displayed a notification sound. Gu Ming focused his mind and shouted in his heart, "Merge for me!"

The next moment, Gu Ming secretly channeled his profound power and split into three, which was Su Huanzhen's three transformations. Then, the three of them each displayed their martial arts: the Nine Provinces Vitality Relying on the Qi of Wind and Thunder, the Method of Exhaling Qi to Form a Sword, and the Eight Trigrams Lost Step.

Su Huanzhen's eyes gleamed with admiration. Indeed, he could master it in an instant, become proficient in a short time, and reach the peak of proficiency in a short time. Moreover, he could innovate and surpass him.

"Brother Gu has such talent, which is a blessing for all the people. In that case, I will go and persuade all the masters to gather the best martial arts in the world to serve Brother Gu alone."

Gu Ming nodded. If possible, he would prefer to develop slowly. After all, if this divination were revealed, everyone would fear and envy him. But now that the Abandoned Emperor is about to destroy the world, he has no time left.

Half a month later, the greatest masters of the world gathered together, including Su Huanzhen, the number one person in the world, Yi Ye Shu, the sword legend Demon Flow Sword Wind Trace, the sword fanatic Ye Xiaochai, and so on.

Any one of these masters, if they appeared in the world and had no equal to stand in their way, could sweep across the heavens and earth.

After hearing Su Huanzhen's explanation, the experts initially disbelieved him. However, after Yi Ye Shu and Feng Zhihen explained their own martial arts techniques, they saw that Gu Ming had mastered them in an instant, and their doubts were dispelled.

Then he continuously mobilized his connections, summoning masters from all over the world to come here, using the entire world's resources to support one person.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Emperor of Abandoned Heaven discovered that there was no one in the world who could stop him from destroying the third pillar of the Divine Land, and he couldn't help but feel somewhat bored.

Facing the third pillar of the Divine Land, which he had previously needed a divine artifact to destroy before descending to the mortal realm, he now only needed to raise his eyes and strike with his palm, and the pillar of the Divine Land collapsed with a crash.

"Now, there's only one left."

The Emperor of Abandoned Heaven wore a smile on his face, but his heart held no murderous intent, demonic desire, or destructive intent. All he had was the grand ambition to cleanse this filthy world and create a pure land.

Then he looked towards the Hidden Shrine, sensing the aura there. Hmm, it seemed to be a gathering place for all the larger ants in the world.

"Interesting, then let me have a go at you, hahahahaha."

······
Inside the Pan Yin Divine Palace, countless masters took turns explaining their martial arts and their Dao to Gu Ming. Afterwards, Gu Ming's aura visibly increased, making him appear like a grandmaster of unparalleled talent.

"The human world is filthy again."

A lofty, ethereal voice, devoid of emotion, resounded. This voice was supreme and noble, seemingly filled with both endless hatred and disgust for the mundane world, yet also with a profound love for it.

Yi Ye Shu, Su Huanzhen, and the others looked extremely embarrassed. How could they have arrived so quickly? There are so many masters in the world. If they were to explain the essence of martial arts, it would take at least several days.

But now that the Abandoned Emperor has arrived, does that mean they have no time left?

Su Huanzhen immediately stepped forward: "All those who have learned martial arts, come with me to stop the Abandoned Emperor. The rest of you stay here. Our only hope now rests on Brother Gu."

Everyone agreed.

As a large number of experts emerged, in the past, their gathering would have been enough to overturn the world, but now these powerful figures, who once dominated the region, only showed endless bewilderment on their faces and in their hearts.

Then a person stood with his hands behind his back, exuding a profound aura. His appearance was indescribable, possessing both the alluring beauty of a demon and the ability to transcend the demonic realm.

He possesses an indescribable divinity, so stunning that once you see him, it's hard to look away.

He simply stood there, as if he had trampled the heavens and earth, all people, the great principles of morality, and everything else under his feet. He was an invincible person who looked down upon the world.

Su Huanzhen shouted, "Abandoned Heavenly Emperor, you were once the number one Martial God of the Heavenly Realm. Why do you now turn from a god into a demon and destroy all living beings? Do you know what kind of sin this is?"

The Abandoned Heavenly Emperor looked at one after another of the most outstanding people in the mortal world, and said calmly, "Sin? No, I don't think so. On the contrary, I think this is merit. You should thank me."

"Look at the human world, it is full of the darkness and filth of human nature. The beautiful environment has been destroyed by humans. Humans who have no power vainly try to use martial arts to transcend the ordinary and live forever in the world, causing damage to heaven and earth. They are the insects of heaven and earth."

Therefore, my destruction of the world is a meritorious act, a blessing upon you. Of course, some of you are worthy of admiration. Su Huanzhen, I have heard your story and admire you.
If you submit to me, I will allow you to join me in governing the new world that will be created in the future.

"Oh, then tell me, besides me, who else would you be willing to submit to? Why not give us a chance?" Su Huanzhen said.

Immediately, a master in the crowd tried to speak up, glaring angrily at Su Huanzhen, but was quickly stopped by those around him.

The Abandoned Emperor took all this in and shook his head, saying, "I treated you with sincerity, but your heart is not sincere. You want to stall for time. In that case, I do not wish to say more to you."

"Next, I will destroy this last pillar of China, so please do not hold back and use all your strength to please me."

As he spoke, the Abandoned Emperor took a step forward, and his vast true essence was revealed, as vast as rivers and seas, as galaxies as stars.

"Reverse the source of demonic power!"

The ancient and unrefined voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth. The experts dared not be careless and unleashed their strongest techniques to meet the number one demon in the world.

However, under that vast demonic energy, they were like ants.

Su Huanzhen charged forward fearlessly, his expression one of resignation to death, and sighed inwardly, "Brother Gu, it's all up to you now!"
