The Medicine Sovereign's figure was nowhere to be seen, but his voice carried down: "Old friend Snowy Mountain, I apologize for this unannounced visit."
His voice resounded through heaven and earth, penetrating the Great
"Hahaha." The Snowy Mountain Ancestor laughed heartily as he soared skyward, leaving the Great
Immediately the sky transformed—one half blazing with orange-gold radiance, the other surging with frost and ice, the two forces locked in equal opposition.
But just then, from the west, a mass of pitch-black ink clouds arrived without warning.
The ink clouds churned ceaselessly, spreading with astonishing speed. Their presence was no less imposing than the Snowy Mountain Ancestor's or the Medicine Sovereign's, forcefully carving out a domain of their own in the sky.
Seeing this, Lady Wanshou's expression changed. Her heart sank, and she blurted out: "What— the Centipede Heavenly Lord is here as well?!"
The ink clouds, frost, and orange light surged and roiled in stalemate, dividing the sky spanning millions of li into three separate domains.
The Snowy Mountain Ancestor let out a cold laugh: "Heavenly Lord, shouldn't you be managing your own forces instead of joining in on this spectacle?"
The Centipede Heavenly Lord gave two dry laughs. "Old friend Snowy Mountain, it's merely a trivial Fangcun Mountain. How could it possibly catch your eye? Why not return it to the
Lady Wanshou's face immediately turned ashen. The
The Centipede Heavenly Lord had originally been a rogue cultivator, but ever since the auction assembly, he had been scheming to establish a
But in the next moment, the Snowy Mountain Ancestor threw his head back and laughed, his laughter soaring to the clouds: "Then come at me together! We'll settle this with a fight!"
With that, he shot straight into the sky. With a thunderous crash, the Snowy Mountain Ancestor smashed through the Heavenly Force Barrier and entered the White Heaven.
When Eighth Transformation Gu Immortals fought, their power was vast and terrifying—far too great for the earth to bear. Normally, they would tacitly descend into the Primordial Nine Heavens to do battle, sparing the mortal world from unimaginable devastation.
"If my dear friend is in the mood, then this Sovereign shall oblige." The Medicine Sovereign's gaze flickered, and he swiftly followed.
The Centipede Heavenly Lord paused, then smiled bitterly. "Since you insist, Old friend Snowy Mountain, then this Heavenly Lord must ask your forgiveness for the offense."
All three Eighth Transformation Gu Immortals entered the White Heaven. Soon, thunderous explosions echoed from the sky.
"They're fighting in the White Heaven!" someone among the

Awooo!
Midway through their flight, an ancient wild beast wailed as it plummeted from the sky.
The
"That's a Heaven-Maimed Dog!" The immortals recognized the ancient wild beast's origin, their eyes going wide.
With a muffled boom, the Heaven-Maimed Dog crashed into the ground like a meteorite, slamming into the earth and smashing out a massive crater. It struggled a few times, then went still.
"They knocked a Heaven-Maimed Dog right out of the White Heaven."
"How can the power of an Eighth Transformation be so savage?!"
"Just the aftershocks of their battle, and the Heaven-Maimed Dog died so miserably..."
"Watch out!"
The warning had barely left someone's lips when massive hailstones began crashing down from the sky.
Each hailstone was as large as a mountain peak, the hailstorm covering a thousand-li radius. The bone-piercing cold froze everything in its path to death, forcing the
Crack!
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning's residual energy descended from the sky, grazing the hem of the
Old Calculator screamed in agony, hastily retreating from the blinding electric light. Nearly half his body was gone—he was immediately gravely wounded and on the verge of death.

The higher a Gu Immortal's cultivation, the greater the gap between each transformation. The difference between the Eighth and Seventh Transformations was simply heaven and earth. To rival an Eighth Transformation with only a Seventh had been exceedingly rare throughout all of history. In all the countless years, the vast

Old Calculator had narrowly escaped death and restored his form, his face still etched with disbelief and lingering terror. He kept muttering: "How is this possible? That lightning struck and I couldn't even predict it in advance?"
Bu Feiyan's gaze wavered. Putting herself in Old Calculator's position, she realized that even with her movement abilities, she would not have been able to escape that bolt of lightning. She couldn't help but ask: "Should we continue forward?"
Chen Zhenchi looked up and saw that the sky above had become like a rag stitched together from countless patches. Zones of power overlapped, each covering an area large or small, intertwined with one another. In some places, dark clouds rolled; in others, sinister winds blew, lightning struck down, or hailstones smashed about in chaos.
