Gu Xuan's face was as calm as an ancient well.
In his mind, a beautiful figure flashed past.
It was Dongfang Xue.
In the past, when the Burning Sky Sacred Ranking was being held in the Burning Sky World's Nine Heavens of the Sacred Region, Dongfang Xue had learned a cultivation method through an ascension plate.
That cultivation technique was a true taboo cultivation technique! It was called the Great Sacrificial Art! This cultivation method could be used to sacrifice the caster's lifespan, blood essence, and even a part of their body in exchange for great power. It could allow the caster to do things that they could not do by themselves.
To help Dongfang Xue, Gu Xuan had learned the Great Sacrificial Art from her.
However, Gu Xuan rarely used it.
The main reason was that when Gu Xuan used this cultivation method in the Sacred Region to help Dongfang Xue cheat and increase her level of cultivation, he angered the True World's Dao of Heaven and sealed this cultivation method.
Of course, this seal was only limited to the Burning Sky World.
Once they arrived in the True World, the so-called seal was no different from nothing.
Secondly, this cultivation method was too powerful, too easy to use, and too strange.
Its essence was to obtain power through some sort of sacrifice. It could be seen as an exchange contract.
There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Sacrificing a certain degree of oneself in exchange for power was not a long-term solution.
Once one got used to it, it was very easy to get addicted to it. In the future, when they ran into powerful enemies, they would inevitably rely on this cultivation method. At that time, it would be too late for regrets.
To put it simply, this was a cultivation method of drinking poison to quench one's thirst.
Unless he had no other choice, Gu Xuan would absolutely not use it.
But now, he had reached a point where he had no other choice.
His enemy was the Heavenly Dao! Roar! Roar! Roar! Lightning Dragon Tian Fa's head had already crawled into the palace through the door.
At that moment, Gu Xuan had already reached the door.
"You had better get out!"
He lifted his right hand gently and pressed it against Lightning Dragon Tian Fa's head.
A violent power surged out from his right hand.
"You're just asking for death!"
In a certain spot in the distant space-time, the True World's Dao of Heaven let out a cold harrumph as it watched the strange scene in the Dark Light Mirror.
Gu Xuan had actually dared to reach out and touch Lightning Dragon Tian Fa. This was no different from sending himself to his death.
However, the next moment, the True World's Dao of Heaven was stunned.
"How … is this possible?"
The scene of the Heavenly Punishment Lightning Dragon exploding instantly and blasting Gu Xuan into smithereens did not appear.
The Thunder Dragon of Heavenly Punishment seemed to have been struck by a Body Freezing Curse. Not only was it motionless, but even the energy fluctuations on its body had also stopped.
Gu Xuan slowly opened his mouth and chanted incantations.
"I will exchange my five hundred thousand years of life for your destruction! Great Sacrificial Art! "
An even more violent energy erupted from Gu Xuan's body and gathered on his right hand.
A faintly discernible formation seemed to appear and disappear beneath Gu Xuan's feet.
Countless mysterious symbols appeared around Gu Xuan's body, drawing a mysterious trajectory in the air.
At this moment, Gu Xuan was like a fiendgod that had crossed over from ancient times! Once the words were spoken, the law followed! Violent energy surged from Gu Xuan's right hand towards the Heavenly Punishment Lightning Dragon, entering its body without any resistance.
The huge body of the Thunder Dragon of Heavenly Punishment actually disappeared into thin air at a speed visible to the naked eye! No one would have thought that such an unforeseen event would occur.
The Thunder Dragon of Heavenly Punishment that could kill any initial stage saint had mysteriously disappeared into thin air without any reason.
In fact, it did not even leave behind a single energy fluctuation, as if it had never appeared.
Even the tribulation clouds did not react and forgot to continue condensing the third Thunder Dragon of Heavenly Punishment.
An irresistible feeling of weakness assaulted Gu Xuan, making him want to fall into a deep sleep. Even his eyelids drooped down involuntarily.
Sacrificing five hundred thousand years of life in one go was no joke.
After consuming the two fruits of the Deity Tree, his lifespan had already surpassed many saints and reached one million five hundred thousand years! The lifespan of a normal initial stage saint was only one million years! The lifespan of a normal half-step saint was only six hundred thousand years.
As for Gu Xuan, his lifespan was already twice that of a powerhouse of the same realm, which was three hundred thousand years more. This was something that had never happened in the three thousand worlds.
Unfortunately, in order to use the Great Sacrificial Art, he had lost a third of his lifespan.
Even if he still had one million years of lifespan left, which was still shocking, losing five hundred thousand years of lifespan in one go still made him feel physically and mentally exhausted.
Gu Xuan quickly bit the tip of his tongue and felt a sharp pain, which made him sober up a little.
"The Teleportation Array is already operating normally. Let's go quickly!"
Yun Xi's voice came from the Teleportation Array.
When Gu Xuan heard this, his spirit was lifted.
"Great, before the True World's Heavenly Dao can react, let's go!"
Gu Xuan turned around and took a step forward, returning to the Teleportation Array.
Immediately, a dazzling light shone from the Teleportation Array.
Boundless spatial energy suddenly surged in the surroundings. Even the entire palace began to distort at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The True World's Heavenly Dao's Profound Light Mirror could no longer see Gu Xuan's image.
The only thing that could be seen was a palace that was starting to distort.
Only then did the True World's Heavenly Dao react.
"No! I can't let Gu Xuan leave the True World! If he leaves safely, where will my face go? "
The True World's Heavenly Dao was enraged.
It was the dignified Heavenly Dao of a True World, but it had lowered itself to kill Gu Xuan without hesitation. If it failed in the end, what would the Heavenly Dao of the other True Worlds think of it?
Forget about the other True Worlds, what would the Lord of the True World think of it?
She would probably laugh until her teeth fell out, right?
"I would rather destroy the ancient Teleportation Array to the Burning Sky World to stop you from leaving! Even if I have to risk being injured, I will still kill you! Die, Gu Xuan! "
The True World's Heavenly Dao roared endlessly.
It controlled the Disaster Clouds of Heavenly Punishment to turn into a mountain with black lightning flashing around it. Then, it charged straight at the palace where Gu Xuan was! Rumble! Wherever the mountain passed, space would shatter.
The might of that smash could be said to be able to destroy the world! The True World's Heavenly Dao wanted to destroy the palace, the Teleportation Array, and Gu Xuan! Unfortunately, the True World's Heavenly Dao was still a little too slow.
Just as the mountain was about to crash down, the palace beneath it disappeared without a trace amid a wave of spatial fluctuations.
Rumble! The mountain in the Disaster Clouds crashed into an empty space, causing the earth to tremble and the mountains to shake.
After a moment, the palace that had disappeared into thin air reappeared amid a wave of spatial fluctuations, as if it had never disappeared.
Peace returned to the ancient mystery realm.
"Hahaha, what do you think of the person I chose?"
An extremely ostentatious yet pleasant laughter suddenly came from the Profound Gate Mirror in front of the Heavenly Dao.
The Lord of the True World's Heavenly Dao appeared in the Profound Light Mirror, covering her mouth and laughing loudly.
Her face was filled with pride.
The True World's Heavenly Dao clenched his fists, as if he was holding Gu Xuan in his hands and wanted to crush him to death.
"So what if Gu Xuan can live past today?
I have already ordered the Archangel to send him a great gift to the Burning Sky World! In the end, his fate was only death! Absolute! No! Exception! Outside! "
