Chapter 199 Assassination
Because Gu Ce hadn't made any special effort to conceal his identity, it quickly spread throughout the entire Purple Thorn Island.
Once the news reached those alien races, it was quickly relayed back to their own tribes through various means.
For example...
Within the territory of the demon race.
In the silent starry sky, countless flames, each the size of a star, were scattered everywhere, enveloping this void. At the center of them stood the majestic Sirius Palace.
A gigantic, two-headed serpentine shadow crouched before the Heavenly Wolf Palace, its voice resounding throughout the entire space and time: "Lord of Heavenly Wolf, news has come from our demon race inheritors within the Ancestral God Sect that Venerable Star Sea has been discovered in the Ancestral God Sect's treasure trove."
"Hmph, he's within the Ancestral God Sect, so it's not convenient to make a move against him," the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf sneered.
"No rush, let's wait until the other races react."
At this time, the Lord of Sirius had not yet gone to Ice Prison Star to meet Gu Ce in person, and was unaware of how monstrous Gu Ce's strength was after breaking through to Immortality. He only felt that Gu Ce wouldn't be able to cause trouble for long.
As the ruler of the universe, he would certainly not personally take action against Gu Ce, but he could instruct the cosmic venerables of the demon race on Zijing Island to make things difficult for Gu Ce.
Moreover, the other two races would not stand idly by and watch humanity produce a new ruler of the universe!
……
"The Venerable Star Sea!"
A powerful figure clad in purple armor and bearing the head of a wolf greeted Gu Ce. This was Venerable Jiufeng, a powerful figure from one of the larger branches of the human race—the werewolf clan.
As a cosmic overlord-level powerhouse on Purple Thorn Island, Venerable Jiufeng immediately found Gu Ce the moment his identity was exposed, appearing quite anxious.
Without needing to guess, Gu Ce knew what he wanted to say.
really--
"Venerable Xinghai, you've exposed your identity! Those alien races will not let you off easily!" Venerable Jiufeng said anxiously. "Even though the Ancestral God Sect strictly forbids fighting, there are many ways to circumvent this restriction, such as going to those secret realms, or even sending someone to assassinate you!"
As a fellow member of the human race, Venerable Jiufeng naturally valued the unparalleled genius within his clan and was even more unwilling to see Gu Ce die.
"Don't worry, Venerable Jiufeng," Gu Ce reassured him helplessly.
"Those alien races would have to send at least a Universe Lord to assassinate me," Gu Ce said confidently. "And the Ancestral God Sect will help me hold off those Universe Lords. At the very least, an ordinary Universe Lord can't enslave my soul in an instant, so there's no need to worry about them."
"This..." Venerable Jiufeng was taken aback.
"If it were an assassination attempt by a Cosmic Venerable, even a Cosmic Overlord couldn't kill me," Gu Ce continued with a smile. "As you know, the difference in power between a Realm Lord and an Immortal is 10 times."
Hearing Gu Ce say this, Venerable Jiufeng's mood gradually calmed down.
"Since you know what you're doing, I won't say anything more," Venerable Jiufeng said to Gu Ce.
Gu Ce nodded. Now, it was time to see just how capable the assassins sent by those alien races really were.
At this moment, the main body had already killed that demonic dragon in the Yongluo Secret Realm, which fully proved that Gu Ce possessed combat power comparable to the overlord of the universe. Even Venerable Jiufeng might not be a match for Gu Ce.
After all, Venerable Jiufeng had received the complete inheritance of the Divine General, and his upper limit of strength had been fixed. There was no possibility of further improvement, and he could only be a cosmic overlord for his entire life.
If those alien races think that sending mid-level or high-level cosmic venerables can solve their problems, then Gu Ce can only accept it with a smile.
……
Next, Gu Ce left the treasure land and arrived at the inheritance land.
The land of inheritance was shrouded in a black mist.
The Beast God Inheritance Token given to Gu Ce by the clan, along with the corresponding laws of water and space fusion, is most suitable for Gu Ce's Star Stream Sea clone, although it makes little difference to Gu Ce.
As Gu Ce stepped into the black mist, an incredible power acted upon his entire body. This power was something that even Gu Ce could not resist, nor was there any need to resist. He could simply watch quietly.
"Whoosh!"
Streams of divine power emanated from Gu Ce's body, followed by the emergence of various law runes. The entire law of water-space fusion began to be demonstrated from its most basic level.
The 'Cosmic Model' within his body, a treasure, also began to simulate under Gu Ce's control, adapting to the evolution of this mysterious power. He watched as the law of water and space fusion improved step by step from the basics, interpreting all his insights. As time went on, more and more law runes emerged, and threads of law runes wrapped around him, forming a beautiful world composed of countless law runes.
"The inheritance of the Beast God." Gu Ce opened his eyes and murmured.
That mysterious power has descended once more.
"The fourth level!" A powerful voice resounded directly in Gu Ce's mind.
"I can actually reach the fourth level in the Path of the Beast God." Gu Ce was slightly surprised. It seems that although he gave up halfway, his understanding of the Path of the Beast God and the law of water-space fusion is still comparable to that of the kings and venerables who walk the Path of the Beast God.
However, this is quite normal.
After all, Gu Ce had thoroughly understood the first six diagrams of the Ice Peak Chaos Stele, and later even created a supreme secret technique of the universe that corresponded to the law of water and space fusion, the "Water and Space Sword Qi". Although he never used it again after obtaining the "Five Evolutions Sword Qi", that did not mean that his understanding of the corresponding law had disappeared.
"This Beast God inheritance is still somewhat helpful," Gu Ce thought to himself.
The Path of the Beast God is more accurately described as the Path of Fusion Laws. It simply involves simulating the innate Beast God and comprehending the heart of the Beast God during the cultivation of fusion laws, making it easier to understand the Path of Fusion Laws.
This Path of the Beast God also contains the complete laws of spatial origin. Integrating with the laws themselves is of great help to Gu Ce. He can use it later, whether to create secret techniques or break through to the Universe Venerable level.
After receiving the inheritance, Gu Ce left the place of inheritance.
……
"Hmm? You've moved pretty quickly this time."
After leaving the place of inheritance, Gu Ce returned to Zijing Island and found several pairs of eyes watching him.
"Greedy Wolf Venerable, Lemon Night Venerable, Source Heart Venerable, one cosmic overlord, two high-level cosmic venerables, your three races are quite willing to part with them," Gu Ce said with a slight smile.
The fishing plan was quite successful.
The Source Heart Venerable was a cosmic overlord from the Zerg Alliance who was skilled in soul attacks. The other two were from the Demon Alliance and the Mechanical Alliance, respectively, and were both inheritors of the Beast God who cultivated on this Purple Thorn Island.
"Enough with the nonsense!" Venerable Yuanxin snorted coldly and immediately made his move.
The three cosmic venerables from the three factions are not all in the same group; whoever strikes first will have the advantage!
