Chapter 264: Chapter 158: If the Mountain Won’t Come to Me, I Will Go to the Mountain!

"Holy shit, what the hell is this?"

After Huang Yanshan left, Gu Shanhai suddenly realized that the entire world had undergone some kind of bizarre change.

He was still here but could sharply sense the unstoppable fracturing and reorganization of his surroundings. He instinctively wanted to peek, but found it opaque, like a layer of frosted glass, impossible to peer through directly.

When everything finally settled down, Gu Shanhai suddenly found himself surrounded by people, the wooden hut gone.

"It’s been a long time, uncle. You were really wiped out, and I could only find you after sixty-five years." Huang Yanshan’s voice came once again, only this time it was full of vigor, not the previous weakness.

"Holy shit! What the fuck did you do?!" Gu Shanhai looked at Huang Yanshan standing beside him, dressed in imperial robes and radiating a terrifying presence.

"Of course, I changed the heavens," said Huang Yanshan as he took out a page from the Time History Book and handed it to Gu Shanhai: "Consider it returned to its rightful owner."

Gu Shanhai took it habitually, then asked, "Okay, you’re pretty strong, but what happened to Dugu Tiansheng?"

"Let’s talk as we walk. I’ve prepared a banquet to welcome and cleanse you from your journey," Huang Yanshan said with a smile.

Along the way, Gu Shanhai listened to Huang Yanshan’s rebirth story and could only say it was utterly preposterous.

Huang Yanshan was reborn at the moment of his birth, immediately started cultivating the "Purple Profound Thunder Skill," and lay dormant for twenty years. During these twenty years, following the plan he had set with Gu Shanhai, he took a wife, had children, passed the civil service exam, and secretly developed his power and martial arts in the dark.

He spent two years mastering the "Purple Profound Thunder Skill" to the point of magnetic field rotation at the tenth layer of heaven, mastered seven strikes of the Purple Thunder and two secret techniques, and even developed the exterminating immortal body, the Purple Thunder Electric Body, and a series of complementary abilities.

In the following eighteen years, he perfected the "Purple Profound Thunder Skill" with "Emperor’s Unrivalled Strategy" and successfully advanced it to the magnetic field rotation at the twenty-fifth layer of heaven, even breaking through the star-shattering realm that Gu Shanhai had mentioned.

Gu Shanhai was a bit stunned at this point.

After reaching the twenty-fifth layer of heaven, he sensed the existence of Heavenly City, but he didn’t act. Instead, he continued to grow stronger.

It wasn’t until later, when he reached the power of the thirtieth layer of heaven, with the ability of psychic induction, that he enabled some people to understand the truth deeply.

After that, he swiftly rose to power, first overthrowing the government to establish his own kingdom, then exterminating Heavenly Sect Demon Gate, and slaughtering the entire martial arts community, by which time Huang Yanshan was thirty years old.

With his tremendous strength, he forcibly dragged down Heavenly City, which was in a different space, along with the entire Heavenly Spirit Seizing Array.

Then, he subjected Dugu Tiansheng to the ultimate humiliation in public, directly pushing him to the brink of collapse. The man is not dead yet, his body desiccated and stuffed into a half-healed different space.

The fates of the Twelve Martial Arts True Immortals weren’t much better; although they weren’t subjected to the ultimate humiliation, they were also drained dry and stuffed into different space.

He melded the Heavenly Persons into misshapen flesh and blood, also imprisoned in different space, and forcefully sealed these people with Heavenly Gate.

Gu Shanhai could only express his shock, even joking about whether the ultimate humiliation was harsh on the eyes. Huang Yanshan replied that it was quite scorching because his original plan was three years, but it took less than three months for Dugu Tiansheng to collapse. Any further provocation was useless, which is why he lost interest in the Martial Arts True Immortals.

In the time that followed, Huang Yanshan started his long reign. During this period, his grandson, the destined protagonist, was born, and he even managed to advance his magnetic field rotation to the powerful fiftieth layer of heaven, reaching the anti-gravitational realm Gu Shanhai mentioned.

His strength also grew to an unmatched extreme.

"That’s more or less what I’ve been up to these years. I owe a lot to you, uncle, for allowing me to make up for my regrets," Huang Yanshan said, no longer mad. His wife and children were alive and well, and he had a successful career, truly a winner in life.

"Next, you can retire and enjoy a peaceful life. How does the treatment of retiring alongside the nation sound?" Huang Yanshan teased.

"I have a strange déjà vu feeling. If I agree, are you going to smash a cup as a signal during the meal and then have eight hundred axe-wielders chop me into mincemeat?" Gu Shanhai made a sarcastic comment.

His words caused the complexion of the ministers who had come along to change, feeling that Gu Shanhai was being too disrespectful.

"Damn~ their expressions changed. You’re not really planning to do that, right?" Gu Shanhai was a bit perplexed at this moment.

Huang Yanshan was exasperated: "Uncle, stop joking. If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t need to hide axe-wielders. With my fifty layers of magnetic field rotation, you wouldn’t stand a chance against me."

"Oh, makes sense. Then why did their expressions change..."

"Maybe they took the wrong medicine," Huang Yanshan casually covered for them, casting a glance at these ministers, indicating there wouldn’t be a next time. If there was, he would have them executed.

"Alright then, as long as you’re happy." Gu Shanhai wasn’t worried about Huang Yanshan harming him. Even the Time History Book’s page had been returned to him; if he wanted to make a move, it wouldn’t be with such fanfare.

Soon, the two were arranged to stay at a palace, surrounded by many magnetic field experts. Huang Yanshan had built the covert palace right in the place they had hidden previously.

"Uncle, I’ve been searching for you all these years. How did you disappear without a trace? Ying Gu has memories of you, and there were even traces of where you lived, but I couldn’t find you despite searching every inch. Also, your memories seem to have stopped at the moment I left," Huang Yanshan asked, curious.
