Chapter 1073: Memories of the Final Battle
Qin Yiyao does not trust Gu Ce.
Apart from her master, she had never truly trusted anyone wholeheartedly.
Gu Ce could have easily taken the throne of the God Kingdom himself, but he chose to remain on his own.
If it was Master's will, Qin Yiyao would not hesitate at all, but what was Gu Ce's purpose?
She knew that the reason Gu Ce planned to promote her and offer her such great opportunities and benefits on her cultivation path was not because Gu Ce regarded her as a "prodigy" or because he valued her and planned to cultivate her as a confidante.
No matter how many unimaginable benefits he could gain from usurping the throne, Gu Ce would certainly gain even more!
Even the temptation of becoming the ruler of a dynasty and wielding divine power was not enough to entice Gu Ce. What greater benefits could he possibly imagine? Qin Yiyao felt she couldn't even begin to fathom them.
"This is a rare opportunity, but you'll definitely seize it."
"I am waiting for you in the capital."
"By the way, I would like to tell Her Highness the Nine Heavens that the blockade on the border of the Qinggu Divine Kingdom will be temporarily weakened, which will be enough for her Mo Lou War General to gather the strength of the army and break through the heavy weapon barrier in one fell swoop. However, escaping the territory of the Divine Kingdom is not the end. That Grand Elder only obeys the orders of the Divine Lord, and I cannot command him."
The outline of Gu Ce rippled slightly before gradually disappearing.
He did not mention Gu Heng's name.
This woman always says she has another master, but what kind of master would make her reject the favor of so many important people?
In a sense, Gu Ce always felt that the reason Qin Yiyao used to refuse other supreme experts from accepting her as a disciple was probably Gu Heng.
But she seemed to have no idea who her master was...
He has amnesia, so it doesn't seem like he's deliberately hiding it. It's more likely that he arranged everything before he lost his memory, including his own amnesia. Taking her as his disciple must have been part of a planned scheme.
Gu Ce didn't want to be the one to tell the truth.
If deliberately keeping it a secret from his disciple was also one of Gu Heng's goals, then his presumptuousness would be considered a disruption of the plan.
Let's keep her in the dark.
"...What exactly is your purpose?"
Qin Yiyao withdrew her thoughts from that sea of starry ideas and fell into deep contemplation.
She can't afford to dwell on it too much right now.
Let's tell Qing Yixuan the information first.
……
Gu Heng has returned to the floating palace of Xiaoyao Lue.
Outside the window was the magnificent celestial phenomenon unique to the core realm of the Wanchao civilization, with shimmering energy flowing across the sky like the aurora borealis, but he had no time to appreciate it.
Xiao Bai and Su Jinxi were diligently cultivating for the upcoming ceremony of bestowing titles, as were the other three prodigies of the Baoque Dynasty. Xiaoyao Lue knew that the decision made at the secret meeting was of great importance, especially since the Baoque Dynasty was definitely the one contributing the most money and effort. He had to go back and report the truth, and then leave it to the Baoque Holy Emperor and the Baoque National Preceptor to decide.
The remaining two protectors also kept their distance from Gu Heng. He knew that Xiaoyao Lue must have specifically instructed them not to "tease" him before leaving.
It's quite difficult to maintain that composure.
Gu Heng held the memory fragment tightly in his hand. The fragment was cold to the touch, but it felt as if warm blood was flowing inside, creating a strange resonance with him.
That call from the depths of the soul grew ever clearer.
He needs power and information. Although he is the real Gu Heng, he cannot play the role of "himself" better without understanding his past self.
Now that things have come to this, it's essential to understand the truth!
This concerns not only himself, but also the safety of everyone connected to him.
"Look at me from before."
Gu Heng closed his eyes, his mind slowly sinking in, carefully touching the cold shard.
boom!
It was as if a thunderclap exploded in my mind, or as if a volcano that had been dormant for thousands of years suddenly erupted!
The moment the divine sense came into contact with the fragment, it was as if billions of information torrents were simultaneously crashing against the dam of consciousness. The stinging sensation struck again, more intense than ever before!
Gu Heng groaned, and a fine layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead. His body trembled slightly uncontrollably as a vast, chaotic torrent of information, filled with countless intense emotions, surged into his mind like a river bursting its banks!
No longer the sporadic stings and vague flashbacks of before, this time, it's a real wave coming!
The images brought by memory are fragmented and disjointed.
Gu Heng saw an endless sea of stars stretching out beneath his feet, billions of stars twinkling and flickering, seemingly within reach...
The deafening shouts and roars were filled with the fanatical worship of followers and the terror and despair of enemies.
Once inside that memory, Gu Heng felt an immense power, powerful enough to tear apart the heavens, flowing through his body. It was as if he could reverse concepts and change phenomena with just a thought!
"What terrifying malice."
Gu Heng murmured.
Gu Ce was right; the memory itself was "highly poisonous."
If he weren't the owner of these memories, his consciousness would probably have been completely overwhelmed by this raging torrent just now, turning him into an empty shell or a madman.
Gu Heng "saw" an endless void, with dim stars and a collapsed spacetime.
"This is where?"
"And who are those guys?"
The enormous, terrifying figures stood in the void, surrounded by dazzling yet deadly divine light, which perfectly accentuated their imposing presence.
There were seven such figures surrounding him!
Gu Heng's eyes widened, and he instantly understood.
That's it!
These fragments of memory record the final battle that led to his defeat and disappearance!
He single-handedly fought against seven epoch-making gods!
"So this is what gods look like...not very good-looking."
I have no idea what the true face of the epochal gods looks like, or rather, there are very few people who can see the true face of gods, and it takes qualifications.
He saw seven of them in one go.
Although the gods seemed to be able to conceal their figures with dazzling divine light, Gu Heng could still recognize several of them.
For example, the supreme god of the Dragon Clan civilization, the "True Dragon," with its winding body coiled in the shattered void of the starry sea, is truly representative.
There is also a Buddha figure seated on a lotus platform, surrounded by chanting Buddhist hymns; this must be the supreme deity of all Buddhist civilizations.
As for that divine body engulfed in flames, seemingly capable of supporting the shattered heavens, it must be the supreme god of the martial arts civilization. Gu Heng had heard Wu Zhao describe the appearance of that "Martial Supreme Celestial Venerable" to him, and it matched the description.
And... the Primordial Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Dao Civilization.
As for the remaining three, they were all too abstract for Gu Heng to recognize.
The gods who participated in this siege may all have had an incredibly powerful and prosperous civilization behind them!
In other words.
They must be among the top seven most powerful beings in the highest realm of civilization!
