I Am the Fated Villain

Gu Changge found that the distinction between immortals and ordinary people was not as crucial as he once thought. Living on the mountain or following the mountain, both were part of the human way, encompassing immortals and mortals alike. Even the highest echelons of immortality couldn’t escape the broader category of humanity.

Through his experiences, Gu Changge realized that the vague concept of “person” gradually gained clarity and definition. As years passed in the Green Mountain Village, children grew into adults, married, and started their own families. Life continued its cyclical nature, with the elderly passing away and new life entering the world.

Despite the passage of several years, Gu Changge and Su Qingge remained seemingly untouched by time. Su Qingge, being a powerful cultivator with an extended lifespan, perceived the years passing in the blink of an eye. Gu Changge, though appearing like an ordinary person, had a blurred sense of time within him. While he could simulate the effects of aging and adapt to the rhythms of mortal life, he wouldn’t genuinely grow old.

The Green Mountain Village offered them a unique perspective on life, providing a real experience of a new life and a complete understanding of mortal existence. Gu Changge and Su Qingge, living as a couple, observed the cycles of nature, from spring to winter, witnessing the ebb and flow of life.

During this time, Gu Changge felt as though he had filled the gaps in his original understanding of Dao. Simultaneously, he sensed a detachment from his initial human nature, allowing him to view himself from a different perspective. The days in the village became a profound exploration of life, revealing its multifaceted nature and timeless essence.

Gu Changge’s experience in the Green Mountain Village was a form of reincarnation, a new life that allowed him to explore the human way from a different perspective. Although he couldn’t undergo every conceivable experience, considering his original vantage point at the end of the way of heaven, it was a profound journey into humanity.

As Gu Changge embraced his newfound humanity, the upper realm underwent significant changes. Powerful beings emerged in various immortal forces, significantly raising the overall combat power in the upper realm. The immortal kings in the immortal domain were awe-struck by these developments.

Simultaneously, efforts were made by strong individuals to communicate with the Immortal Domain to address the turbulent situation. On the edge of a vast battlefield, ancient warships approached, causing turmoil in many ancient universes. The ripple effect spread like a storm, disintegrating worlds.

On the boundary embankment, an old man in white, with a white beard, and a young woman named Shen Xian’er stood. The old man, Ming, had walked out of the sea of boundary monuments. As they observed the chaotic scene, Ming speculated about the appearance of individuals from other real worlds.

Shen Xian’er expressed surprise at the mention of hunters from other realms. Ming pondered whether the appearance of these hunters and the discovery of the Mountain and Sea Realm were mere coincidences or if someone was deliberately orchestrating events. The passage of countless epochs since the war against the heavens fueled Ming’s suspicions, prompting him to question the motives behind these recent developments.

The emergence of hunters in the boundless sea, sacrificing the real world of mountains and seas, and the traces of other real worlds trying to contact this realm led Ming to believe that there might be a greater force orchestrating these events. Shen Xian’er, following Ming’s side and gaining insights into the situation, expressed confusion and speculated that the true spirit protecting the real world of mountains and seas might not have disappeared but faced challenges, making it unable to shield the realm effectively.

In response to Shen Xian’er’s hypothesis, Ming acknowledged the possibility. He considered the idea that the true spirit, responsible for safeguarding the real world of mountains and seas, might have encountered problems, rendering it incapable of providing adequate protection. This notion connected the events unfolding in the realm to a potential issue with the true spirit.

Ming’s face underwent subtle changes as he pondered these possibilities, and his eyes seemed to penetrate time itself, attempting to gain insights into the present circumstances. This line of thinking suggested a complex and interconnected web of forces influencing the fate of the real world of mountains and seas.

Ming contemplated the possibility that the ancient existences constantly being revived could be the result of the True Spirit’s arrangements over the years. This realization weighed heavily on him, as it suggested that the True Spirit might not have fallen but instead orchestrated events behind the scenes.

Acknowledging that something significant was occurring, Ming’s expression grew serious. He speculated that the newly born real world they had discovered had long lost the protection of the True Spirit, leaving it exposed to external influences. This observation seemed to validate Lord Zhuoyou’s earlier conjecture.

Meanwhile, in the vast expanse, an ancient warship of pale blue color traversed the waves, heading toward the real world of mountains and seas. The immense vessel bore a profound aura of antiquity, forged from rare immortal gold and radiating a divine light of order. Chaotic energy enveloped the ship, shrouding it in an aura of mystery and power.

Onboard the warship, armored figures conversed in an ancient secret language, their excitement palpable as they approached the birthplace of a new life. Despite their faces being concealed, their eyes gleamed with cold determination, hinting at their formidable presence and intent.
