From the highest heavens to the depths of the Yellow Springs, I will accompany you!

To have someone like this, who no matter the place or time, is willing to follow you through life and death, Gu Changsheng suddenly felt that death was really not an option!

To take such an evildoer to the Yellow Springs, how many women in the world would be weeping blind!

If by any chance, she screws up, she would become a criminal for eternity!

This is absolutely unacceptable!

Clench our claws, to not become a criminal for eternity, let’s fight!

"Ah!"

Another piercing scream echoed through the sky, from Gu Changsheng’s mouth, a cry from the depths of her soul, the heart-wrenching pain truly tortured her to the point she wished for death, yet it was elusive!

Have you ever imagined such a feeling, one moment you are tumbling and struggling in boiling oil, trying to escape the searing pain, and the next, your wish comes true, freeing yourself from the heat?

However...

This so-called wish fulfillment lasts but a moment, the next you’re thrown into a millennium-old ice cellar, the bone-chilling cold feels like it’s stripping away your breath, from searing to freezing, with no room for respite, nor consideration for your tolerance or feelings...

It’s just mercilessly tormenting, offering no chance of survival!

The faint remaining thread of sanity within Gu Changsheng was solely dedicated to cursing the heavens!

This is truly like being screwed over by a husky!

You say, a bolt of lightning strikes down, with a blazing brilliance through the sun, it is so dazzlingly magnificent. Aren’t you a bolt of lightning? You should scorch people with your heat, you’re at least a blaze!

Yet, why the hell are you freezing people, what is this all about?

Explain to me, where does this icy shackle come from? If you can articulate something meaningful... If you can articulate something meaningful, I’ll still beat you!

Simply unreasonable to the extreme!

Gu Changsheng had never encountered such an unreasonable affair, it was truly torturing her to death!

Truly disrupting the path to the future!

The soul, under this second bolt of lightning and fire, detaches, returns, detaches again, and returns...

Gu Changsheng could already feel herself becoming somewhat disembodied!

The step-by-step crisis is now gone, leaving only the pain of forcibly stripping her soul!

A hazy phantom gradually seeped out from Gu Changsheng’s body...

Then...

Flashing by, it returned to Gu Changsheng’s body...

This spirit body departure caused everyone present to gasp in unison!

In the following moment, another hazy phantom appeared by Gu Changsheng’s side...

The soul, forcibly split in two, then merged, then detached again...

This pain, compared to the physical agony of flesh-slicing bone-carving, was a thousand times worse, Gu Changsheng swore, she definitely never wanted to experience it a second time!

Every time her soul detached, Gu Changsheng faintly felt that she was already dead, leaving behind only an empty shell...

Yet, she was unwilling, unwilling to die just like that!

With this ounce of defiance, she dragged back her soul, stripped away by the lightning bolt and fire...

Once!

Twice!

Thrice!

From one soul being detached, to two souls being detached...

A spirit body appeared, she pulled it back, then another spirit body appeared...

Gu Changsheng was tortured by this pain, her life and death beyond control!

Yet the heavens, delighted by this, continued relentlessly!

Constant detachment, from one spirit body appearing to several spirit bodies appearing, while Gu Changsheng suffered, she was so busy she couldn’t spare any limbs!

Heaven have mercy, if she didn’t pull back the spirit body in time, it would be disintegration of soul!

Nobody understood better than Gu Changsheng what this spirit body detachment meant for her, it was the trial of soul refinement!

The outcome of the soul refining trial directly decided whether she could survive, whether she could walk out alive from this sweeping lightning bolt and fire!

To live is to conquer the realm, becoming a Master of the Primordial Transformative Realm!

To die is total annihilation, disintegration of soul, and the body reduced to dust!

It’s true annihilation!

Legend has it that anyone who dies under the Soul Refining Heavenly Punishment Thunder, their flesh would be struck to ashes, not a single speck remaining, such a fate is beyond miserable!

For someone like Gu Changsheng, who even considers her appearance in death and insists on a beautiful garment, such a death would be unacceptable!

She cannot die!

She cannot give up!

She cannot...

Cannot let her detached soul never return!

Pain, pain from the depths of the soul!

Let it hurt, for now!

Her focus is to pull back the spirit body!

One spirit body detaches, a force of will immediately follows to pull it back...

Another spirit body detaches, another force of will follows to pull it back...

It’s like a tug-of-war!

The difference is, this is entirely a battle of one against many, tugging at the other end of the rope is the blazing light of lightning, striving to strip away Gu Changsheng’s soul one by one...

While Gu Changsheng, enduring the pain of detachment, must do her utmost to pull back her soul one by one!

In past lives, in the military, this kind of tug-of-war during training was child’s play, Gu Changsheng was so familiar with it she could do it in her sleep!

Yet, it was her first realization that here, in this life-or-death tug-of-war, she was so diminutive...

She was indeed played around like a spinning top, wasn’t she?

"You damn master! Have you become addicted to this? Can’t you wrap it up?"

Busy and overwhelmed, Gu Changsheng, no longer able to bear it, finally erupted with a shout!

She desperately pleaded for a moment of respite!

Her consciousness was barely enough to sustain this frantic grappling and pulling; this truly was a desperate struggle for dear life!

"Changsheng!"

But at this moment, Zhou Mu, who had been staring intently at Gu Changsheng, let out an anguished roar, his whole being trembling with anxious horror.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"..."

Boundless thunder and flames ferociously tore through the void, striking down towards Gu Changsheng’s head...

The speed!

Upon hearing the call from her evildoer, Gu Changsheng immediately lifted her head...

And then, she felt a dazzling brightness before her eyes, barely reacting before her whole body convulsed, unable to suppress a cry of pain, "Ah!"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"..."

The third Heavenly Punishment Thunder!

It came suddenly, without any negotiation, abruptly exploding on Gu Changsheng!

"Damn it!"

Gu Changsheng was struck by the thunder so hard that even her curses were unstable!

Her entire body trembled amidst the thunder and flames!

Layers of hazy phantoms swiftly peeled away from her body...

Flashing and flickering beside her...

As if showing off...

"Changsheng! Steady your divine soul!"

Zhou Mu, seeing this, shouted urgently.

However, at this moment, Gu Changsheng could no longer hear his words!

If the second Heavenly Punishment Thunder brought a contrast between icy and fiery realms, then the third thunder brought crushing obliteration, offering no respite!

Gu Changsheng clearly felt her soul being completely torn apart by sudden force!

She clearly sensed her soul hovering beside her, flickering in and out...

Yet, she wanted to pull them back, to pull them into her body...

Only to find that it was all to no avail!

She couldn’t do it!

She truly could not!

No matter how strong the will, under the vast heavenly might, it vanished without a trace!

The third thunder and flames carried overwhelming pressure, as if intending to crush all existence, sweeping Gu Changsheng within...

Crushing!

This was the limitless heavenly might, absolute crushing!

What consciousness, what obsession...

Under this earth-shattering thunder and flames, everything seemed so minuscule, unable to withstand the blow!

"Changsheng!" Zhou Mu looked at the spirit body surrounding Gu Changsheng, his cries filled with despair and helplessness.

"Gu Changsheng! Pull through!" The pallid, sweat-drenched Shi Wujue also mumbled in a panic...

He had done everything he could!

With his own hands, he tore open this flawless sky for Gu Changsheng, bringing about the necessary Heavenly Punishment baptism for her Conquest Realm!

But he could do no more for her...

He couldn’t bear the pain of soul separation in her stead, nor could he rescue her from this boundless sea of agony...

If only...

If only...

Shi Wujue lifted his head, his hands hidden behind him trembled slightly as if poised to close the ripped sky template?

Going Against the Heavens!

For Gu Changsheng, he had already defied heaven three times!

Changing fate against heaven, extending life against heaven, tearing apart this celestial curtain...

Could his already shattered body bear the backlash of a fourth act against heaven?

Life and death, determined in an instant!

Shi Wujue did not know what the consequences would be if he forcibly closed the celestial curtain, interrupting the thunder... 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

From ancient times to today, once the Conquest Realm’s advancement begins, it has never been interrupted...

But...

Without the protection of the Divine Relic Spirit Treasure, how could Gu Changsheng withstand the baptism of three Heavenly Punishment thunders?

She would face Disintegration of Soul!

She would perish!

She... would die!

This was the outcome Shi Wujue could not accept, no matter what!

With trembling hands hidden behind him, his long white hair flowed and danced at his back, his form filled with indescribable desolation and struggle...

A fight to the death?

Gambling with both his life and Gu Changsheng’s?

Should they gamble?

This gamble was undoubtedly larger than Gu Changsheng’s stakes!

But Shi Wujue no longer had a choice...

His hands moved slowly, from the depths of his heart, Shi Wujue had already made a decision...
