Chapter 859 A Battle to the Death Requires a Prize? The Masses Are Stunned!
Hongjun's roar sounded particularly jarring in the deathly silence of the chaos.
The voice no longer contained the majesty and indifference of a saint, but rather pure madness and exasperation to the extreme.
Inside and outside the chaos, every single powerful being watching this place had a strange expression on their face.
They looked at each other, and from each other's reactions, they both saw the same message.
Break the defense.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the one who has held the Heavenly Dao and been high above all beings for countless ages, regarding all living beings as ants, has... completely broken down!
Good guy!
This is truly a spectacle unlike anything ever seen before!
"I have cultivated for hundreds of millions of years and never thought that I would see the Dao Ancestor so discomfitured one day."
"Who can argue with that? This Drunken Sword Immortal... truly is an anomaly!"
"He's more than just an anomaly, he's downright ruthless! Look at him, where's the slightest bit of the demeanor of a strong person?"
"But it's precisely this stubborn and unyielding nature that has driven the Dao Ancestor to this point! No matter how powerful you are, no matter how dominant you are throughout the ages, if he doesn't take the challenge, what can you do? You can't just chase after him and curse him, can you?"
After a brief silence, a burst of suppressed discussion, filled with surprise and amusement, erupted.
No one expected that what should have been a world-destroying battle between saints would turn into this ridiculous scene.
This Sword Immortal doesn't play by the rules at all!
He completely disregarded the so-called dignity of the strong, and cared even less about saving face.
If you can win, then fight; if you can't... no, I'm too lazy to fight, then just run away.
After running away, they would still make a sarcastic remark from a distance.
Who can stand this?
Let alone Hongjun, who was already consumed by rage, even if it were any saint with a perfect state of mind, his actions would probably have made their Dao heart unstable!
Amidst this strange murmur of discussion.
On the other side, in the immeasurably distant chaotic void, a figure once again appeared, swaying and wobbling.
He still had that languid, half-drunk look, and he still wore that spotless Taoist robe.
Holding a wine gourd, Gu Changqing swayed unsteadily, facing Hongjun, who appeared to be insane, across billions of miles of space and time.
He tilted his head back and took another big gulp of the spicy liquor. The hot liquid slid down his throat and into his stomach, making him close his eyes comfortably.
Then, he rolled his eyes dramatically in Hongjun's direction.
A fight with you?
Is your brain filled with chaotic energy?
Fighting is exhausting.
Most importantly, wouldn't that interfere with my drinking?
With this free time, lying on the cloud bed, sipping fine wine, and watching you two old geezers raging here in a helpless frenzy, wouldn't that be one of life's greatest pleasures?
Gu Changqing muttered to himself, then took another sip with a satisfied smile.
He finally understood.
Whether it's Hongjun or the Chaos Ancestor, these two guys are here today to kill me.
That being the case, what else is there to say?
Trying to reason with two lunatics who are determined to kill you?
That's what's truly insane.
Therefore, he never intended to fight them.
Why not run if you can run?
If you can infuriate them, why not just use your words?
"Gu! Chang! Qing!"
Hongjun had clearly also locked onto Gu Changqing's reappearance. His roar traversed endless space, causing the entire chaos to hum.
"You coward! What else can you do besides run away!"
"If you have the guts, then fight me fair and square!"
Hongjun is truly going crazy.
As the founder of Taoism, how could he have ever suffered such humiliation?
The other party is like a slippery eel; you try your best to catch it, but you always miss, and end up getting yourself all muddy and in a sorry state.
That feeling of frustration and helplessness was a million times worse than being defeated outright!
The Chaos Ancestor, standing to the side, was also trembling with rage. He pointed in Gu Changqing's direction and roared at Hongjun:
"Fellow Daoist! Don't waste words with him! This boy is extremely slippery! Let's join forces and seal off this chaotic space-time, let's see where he can escape to!"
"it is good!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Hongjun unleashed his Heavenly Dao authority, unleashing a web of order and laws to completely transform this vast region into a prison!
however.
They were facing a trap set by the two sages.
Gu Changqing's reaction once again exceeded everyone's expectations.
Instead of fleeing again, he looked at them with great interest and even nodded seriously.
"Hmm...that's a good suggestion."
"..."
"???"
Upon hearing this, both Hongjun and the Chaos Ancestor froze.
Even Nuwa, Houtu, and others watching from afar were full of questions.
what's the situation?
Praising the enemy's suggestion is good?
How does this guy's brain work?
Just when everyone was puzzled, Gu Changqing's slow, leisurely voice came again.
"However, I've never liked being told what to do."
He shook the gourd in his hand, and when he heard the sound of water inside fading, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Ugh, we're almost done drinking. What a buzzkill."
His nonchalant attitude completely ignited Hongjun's last shred of reason.
"you wanna die!!"
Hongjun stopped trying to seal off the space, because he knew that it would be futile to do so in the face of Gu Changqing's unpredictable movements.
He wanted to use the most direct and violent method to grind that damned drunkard, along with the space-time he inhabited, into dust!
boom!
The phantom image of the Jade Disc of Creation once again appeared above his head!
The boundless power of the Heavenly Dao converged!
But at this critical moment.
Gu Changqing suddenly grinned, a smile that held a hint of amusement and mockery.
"Fighting with you isn't out of the question."
"Ok?"
Hongjun paused, staring at him suspiciously.
The Chaos Ancestor also looked wary.
What tricks is this kid up to now?
“However…” Gu Changqing drawled, shaking his finger, “fighting is fine, but there has to be a prize.”
"A prize?" Hongjun and the Chaos Ancestor were both stunned.
“That’s right,” Gu Changqing said matter-of-factly. “You two, one an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao and the other a remnant of Chaos, must be rolling in wealth, right?”
"I'm just a poor wretch. I have nothing but a little alcohol."
"If the two of you gang up on me and I accidentally lose, wouldn't that be a huge loss for you?"
"So, offer something as a prize first, otherwise there's no point in talking."
"..."
Dead silence.
The entire chaotic area fell into an eerie silence once again.
Nuwa opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Houtu and Tongtian also looked completely stunned.
Fighting... and you want a prize?
Moreover, at this critical moment of life and death, when two sages joined forces to besiege you, you're asking them for a prize?
Brother!
Are you serious?!
The beings of the primordial world feel that their worldview has been repeatedly crushed, reshaped, and then crushed again today.
They've seen greedy people before, but they've never seen anyone this greedy!
At a time like this, you're still thinking about taking advantage of the Dao Ancestor and the Chaos Ancestor?
What courage this is!
How utterly shameless!
