Book 5: Chapter 199: Destroying the Golden Crows with a Palm, Destroying Stars with a Punch

Warring Nation Immortal Firmament:

Three days later, when Long Zhanguo finished refining the Animal Path Secret Realm, Gu Hai was in a large bookstore, looking at many books.

Long Zhanguo arrived before Gu Hai and waved his hand, preventing people from entering the bookstore. This left the owner of the store gazing at the two in horror.

"You-you-you...who are you?" the bookstore owner exclaimed as he looked at the two.

"What's wrong?" Long Zhanguo looked at the frowning Gu Hai, puzzled.

"See for yourself." Gu Hai picked out some books and handed them to Long Zhanguo.

Legends of the Great Desolate, Tranquil Taiji Scripture, God Loves Mankind, Legends of the Gautama Buddha...

Seeing the titles of these books, Long Zhanguo narrowed his eyes slightly, noticing the strangeness.

"No one else came to your world before, right?" Gu Hai asked.

"None. You are the first." Long Zhanguo nodded.

"Look at these books. There is the Supreme Ascendant, Heavenly Access, Essence Genesis, the Gautama Buddha, the Supreme Singularity, and God. This God should be the initial form of the Supreme Genesis, right? Perhaps their names are different, but the description is more or less the same. The peak characters of the Divine Continent are all here. Look, there seems to be you too," Gu Hai said with some misgivings.

"You, come over. What is going on with the Supreme Ascendant, the Divine Farmer, and the Yellow Emperor?" Long Zhanguo looked at the bookstore owner.

In this immortal firmament, Long Zhanguo was Heaven. A heavenly might pressed down, causing the bookstore owner's expression to change. Then, the bookstore owner fell to his knees, at a loss for words.

"These... These are all novels. They are all novels. They are written by others, simply made-up stories!" the bookstore owner said in horror.

"Made up?" Long Zhanguo narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, made up. They are just stories. However, they are rather well-known and spread far and wide. They are just made-up stories. I-I don't know much, either," the bookstore owner said in horror.

Long Zhanguo narrowed his eyes. Then, he used his consciousness to investigate this world. His consciousness returned after a while. Then, he looked at Gu Hai and said, "They are indeed just stories, a kind of novel. It's just a coincidence, right?"

"Coincidence? Look at this Legends of the Great Desolate. There may be different names, but Sect Master Heavenly Access is the same. Even the Four Immortal Executioner Swords are similar, right? Also, there's this Heaven Splitting Ax that Deity Pan used to split apart heaven and earth; it is the same as yours, right?" Gu Hai said with a frown.

Long Zhanguo frowned and said, "Perhaps because this is my world, my thoughts somewhat affect it. That results in this world having a wisp of my will and bringing about these stories."

However, Gu Hai frowned slightly and shook his head. "I don't think that is the case."

"Oh?"

"You said that you had left this world alone, letting it develop on its own. This means that you had not interfered in it. However, there are still some repeated names and places. Doesn't that prove that this is a necessary phenomenon in the development of an immortal firmament?" Gu Hai asked seriously.

"Necessary phenomenon?" Long Zhanguo gave Gu Hai a confused look.

"For example, what if there is an immortal firmament that is the same as the Divine Continent's? They each developed independently, perhaps with a different order of events or some other variation. However, their starting point is the same, so there will be some events and developments that will be necessary. These events will take place as well. For example, the Divine Continent produced a Sect Master Heavenly Access; in the other immortal firmament, there will also be a Sect Master Heavenly Access. This is a necessary result of the development. It is just like how your immortal firmament has planes, and the Divine Continent has flying ships. It is the same principle. The events are necessary phenomena," Gu Hai said with a frown.

"Necessary phenomena? This is somewhat interesting. However, how can it be exactly the same?" Long Zhanguo countered, still skeptical.

"It might not be exactly the same. They might appear in different forms, just like how those major characters of the Divine Continent appear in the novels of your immortal firmament," Gu Hai said.

"You mean that the different immortal firmaments' development will converge towards the same end?" Long Zhanguo narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes. Because their starting points are the same. It's just like a journey. The starting point and the ending point are the same, but the route could vary with different developments," Gu Hai explained.

Long Zhanguo pondered this.

"I don't believe it. All this is just coincidence. Perhaps it is just my will influencing this world. Alright, it's time to go out," Long Zhanguo finally said.

As Long Zhanguo spoke, he stepped forward, vanishing from the bookstore with Gu Hai. This bookstore owner felt confused, thinking he had seen a ghost.

Long Zhanguo did not believe it, but Gu Hai firmly believed in his conclusion, as it did not happen in just this Warring Nation Immortal Firmament but also on Earth. There were similar people and similar legends. Gu Hai even had seen Laozi.

Every independent immortal firmament has the same starting point. Are the important people the same as well?

The Warring Nation Immortal Firmament is an incomplete immortal firmament, so these characters can only appear in novels and legends.

Earth? Is it an incomplete immortal firmament? No, it does not seem to be. There is the black Go stone that I fused into the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal, the black Go stone that brought me from Earth to the Divine Continent. Perhaps it is Earth's Heavenly Go Stone?

A Heavenly Go Stone from another immortal firmament?

It is not just a myth or legend but something real. In that case, Earth should be a perfect immortal firmament like the Divine Continent.

However, Earth's immortal firmament is just a cage now.

Is the ending point of an immortal firmament all life turning into prisoners?

Gu Hai frowned heavily.

He appeared at the entrance of Lu Ya City's Manifold Deity Palace in the next instant.

Rumble...!

The loud noise coming from the surroundings continued as before; the three battles had not ended yet.

"Your Majesty?" Bing Ji walked over with joy.

"How goes the refinement?" Gu Hai asked.

"The Qian Heavenly Emperor wiped out Lu Ya's consciousness. Nothing can go wrong. It is just a matter of time," Bing Ji said with a smile.

"Alright." Gu Hai nodded.

"Many thanks, Senior Gu!" The humans who used to be in the Animal Path Secret Realm now stood in Lu Ya City. They all bowed respectfully to Gu Hai.

Gu Hai nodded.

Long Zhanguo looked at the Eastern Monarch Palace in the sky. There was still no movement there.

"Humph! Supreme Singularity, you are not coming out yet? That's fine as well. Let's see whether you will come out now or not!" Long Zhanguo said coldly.

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at the nine golden crow crown princes whom Long Shenying and Long Shenwu were fighting.

"Shenying, Shenwen, move aside!" Long Zhanguo said seriously.

"Yes!" his sons responded.

Caw! Caw!

The nine golden crow crown princes immediately charged at Long Zhanguo with ferocious expressions.

"Ten Rising Suns!" the nine golden crow crown princes roared.

Buzz!

The nine golden crow crown princes turned into nine suns, instantly illuminating the sky of Lu Ya City. Intense heat radiated down as though trying to melt everything in the city.

"Supreme Singularity, if you still don't come out, it will be too late!" Long Zhanguo narrowed his eyes.

Then, he raised his right hand, projecting an overwhelmingly massive, white manifested palm that covered the sky. It was like a large net enclosing the region where the nine suns were.

It looked like a large hand holding nine chicken eggs; Long Zhanguo firmly grasped the nine suns.

"What?" The expressions of the nine golden crow crown princes changed.

Far away, Kong Xuan, who was engaged in battle, goggled. "Long Zhanguo?"

"Grasping the nine crown princes in one palm? That's impossible!" The expression of the distant Supreme Genesis changed as well.

Long Zhanguo suddenly glared. "Burst!"

A horrifying force pressed toward the center. The nine golden crow crown princes had nowhere to run, squeezed in Long Zhanguo's palm. It looked like crushing nine chicken eggs.

"No!"

"Ah! Save me! Royal Father!"

"This is impossible! This is impossible! Why is Long Zhanguo so strong? Argh!"

"Royal Father! Royal Father!"

The nine golden crow crown princes screamed in agony.

Boom!

A loud sound came from the massive manifested palm. Then, a bright light shot out between the fingers, illuminating the entire Divine Continent.

After the miserable cries, the area where the nine golden crows were immediately dimmed. Blood splattered as the nine golden crows turned into pulp and fell.

The battles in the surroundings suddenly stopped.

Long Shenwen's expression turned stiff. He and his eldest brother had deadlocked with the nine golden crow crown princes for so long without injuring them. However, their eminent father crushed the nine to death with one palm.

"How can this be?" The Supreme Genesis's eyelids twitched wildly.

Long Zhanguo's strength shocked the Supreme Genesis. Those were the nine golden crow crown princes. Even if the Ten Rising Suns Ritual Array was not complete, it was still one of the top ritual arrays of the Solar Divine Palace. Nevertheless, it got crushed with one palm?

The Supreme Genesis shuddered. The animal spirit kings in the sky appeared shocked as well.

Dong!

Suddenly, a bong came from the Eastern Monarch Palace.

An enormous, dark-yellow bell emerged from the Eastern Monarch Palace's entrance. Ripples came from the bell, like those at the mouth of a spatial tunnel. The other side of the tunnel seemed to be an independent world.

"The Primal Chaos Bell? It turns out that the Primal Chaos Bell is the entrance to the Heavenly Realm?" Long Zhanguo narrowed his eyes.

"Heavenly Realm?" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes as he looked at the independent world guarded by the Primal Chaos Bell.

"Long Zhanguo, how dare you kill my sons?! Do you dare to come here and fight?!" A mighty voice suddenly came from the Heavenly Realm.

The Supreme Singularity felt enraged, but he did not come down. He did not even come to help when the golden crow crown princes got killed. Clearly, there was a trap in the Heavenly Realm.

"The gates to the Heavenly Realm are finally open? Hahahaha! Supreme Singularity, we will come and kill you in a while. Initially, we did not care about these insignificant things. However, we are feeling happy today. I will come after I kill everyone! Hahahaha!" Long Zhanguo guffawed.

As Long Zhanguo guffawed, he turned his head to the Cyclic Star Ritual Array in the sky.

"Sima Zongheng, move aside!" Long Zhanguo shouted.

"Yes!"

Sima Zongheng led the thirty-three armies in immediately retreating from the ritual array.

Then, Long Zhanguo threw a punch at the starry sky.

When Long Zhanguo punched, a massive, azure fist appeared out of nowhere and shot towards the starry sky.

"Oh no! Cyclic Star Ritual Array! Palm of the Stars!" Kong Xuan suddenly shouted in a panic.

Buzz!

The three hundred sixty-one spirit stars immediately gave off dazzling starlight, forming a gigantic net that manifested a huge palm.

The Palm of the Stars had previously torn space when it blocked the powerful attack from the Supreme Wa's Universe Cauldron.

As the Palm of the Stars reached over, it again tore space in countless places, looking like it would block Long Zhanguo's fist.

Kong Xuan and the three hundred sixty other animal spirit kings showed malevolent grimaces as they did their best to drive the energy of the stars.

"Humph!" Long Zhanguo snorted coldly with a ferocious expression.

Long Zhanguo's azure fist crushed the Palm of the Stars. At the same time, it enlarged infinitely and headed for the starry sky.

Boom!

The gigantic net formed by the energy of the stars exploded and shattered. Like the golden crows' light earlier, the boundless starlight instantly illuminated the entire Divine Continent.

"Argh!"

"Don't!"

"That's impossible! My Cyclic Star Ritual Array!"

Miserable cries rang out. Then, everything fell silent, aside from the rumbling.

Long Zhanguo's fist exploded the three hundred sixty-one spirit stars one by one.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"A fist crushing stars?" Gu Hai's eyelids twitched wildly.

What are the limits of Long Zhanguo's strength?
