Chapter 1039: The Fate of Gu Han

Inside the Heaven-Reversing Treasure Vault, Gu Han from the Infinite Gate and its disciples laughed heartily.
“This is the Heaven-Reversing Treasure Vault! The treasures collected by the ancient Heaven-Reversing Demon Ancestor are truly astonishing—even I can’t help but be tempted!” Gu Han glanced at the countless spiritual veins, divine pills, precious stones, and innate materials inside the vault.
The other twenty-odd disciples of the Infinite Gate also had gleaming eyes.
At that moment, Susan, Sulia, Vitya, and the members of the Huang family were all captured by Gu Han and his men. Restrictions were placed on them, preventing them from moving, leaving only expressions of anger on their faces.
“My second brother will return, and he won’t spare you!” Huang Yi glared angrily.
Gu Han turned back, pinched Huang Yi’s cheek, and sneered, “Your second brother? Hehe, Huang Long is currently in trouble himself. He’s hiding among the Golden Dragon clan, too afraid to leave the World of Mighty Dragons. Once he steps out, he’ll be hunted by the Heavenly Dao Sect, the Corpse Demon Sect, the martial sects, and countless powerful warriors from my Infinite Gate!”
“It’s better if he doesn’t come. If he does, I’ll avenge myself from that day and make him suffer beyond imagination!”
Thinking of how he had been defeated by Huang Long at the Ancient Dragon Ruins and fled in shame, Gu Han’s anger flared.
“Is that so?” But just then, a cold voice rang out.
The sudden voice startled everyone.
Gu Han turned and saw a figure appear in a flash of light inside the vault.
“Huang Long!”
“Second brother!”
“Young master!”
Seeing Huang Long, Susan, Oak, and the Huang family all cried out in joy.
After a moment of shock, Gu Han burst into laughter. “So it’s you, Huang Long! I didn’t expect you to actually leave the World of Mighty Dragons! What? You’re not hiding like a turtle among the Golden Dragon clan anymore?”
Huang Long looked at Gu Han’s wild laughter and then at the Huang family, saying coldly, “Do you have any last words? Speak!”
“Last words?” After being stunned for a moment, Gu Han laughed even harder, his face twisted in rage. “Huang Long, you’re too arrogant! Do you think you’re a sage? After the Ancient Dragon Ruins, with the help of the Supreme Saint of my Infinite Gate, I’ve mastered the Infinite Divine Light to 2,851 levels!”
“Now, my strength surpasses even Qing Cang from the Heavenly Dao Sect!”
“Today, I’ll avenge my past humiliation and force you to kneel and beg for mercy!”
After saying this, Gu Han’s entire body radiated the Infinite Divine Light, layer after layer, reaching 2,851 levels indeed!
Three thousand levels of the Infinite Divine Light was the highest realm!

And this Wuliang Gate’s Gu Han had now cultivated his power to 2,851 levels. In terms of strength, he was indeed stronger than Qing Cang from the Ancient Dragon Ruins back then! In fact, he was no weaker than Huang Long at that time. Gu Han from Wuliang Gate could achieve sainthood at any moment! “Huang Long, die!” Gu Han roared from Wuliang Gate, with 2,851 layers of Wuliang Divine Light erupting from his body. With a deafening roar, wherever it passed, space collapsed as he charged at Huang Long with overwhelming force. Huang Long stood there, looking at the opponent’s fierce and triumphant expression, and smiled coldly. Without taking any action himself, a glint appeared in his eyes, and countless Heavenly Dragons emerged from them, confronting those 2,851 layers of Wuliang Divine Light. These Heavenly Dragons possessed immense dragon power. When they collided with the Wuliang Divine Light, there were continuous cracks, and those 2,851 layers of Wuliang Divine Light scattered like sand in the wind in an instant. Countless innate deities within the Wuliang Divine Light also dispersed wildly. “You?!” Gu Han from Wuliang Gate stared at this scene, his smile freezing as shock filled his face. Huang Long looked at him and slowly said, “You’re right. I have indeed achieved sainthood!” With a surge of his aura, the entire sky suddenly changed color, turning completely golden! Golden dragons swam through the air, and barriers composed of golden scales appeared. The wrath of a sage changes the heavens and earth! A pressure so immense that it made Gu Han and the others feel suffocated radiated from Huang Long. “No, no, it’s impossible!” As Huang Long emitted the pressure of a sage, Gu Han cried out in disbelief, nearly going mad, his soul on the verge of collapse. After returning to the Ancient Dragon Ruins, his strength had greatly increased, and he thought he could avenge himself. But now, Huang Long had achieved sainthood! “No, I can’t lose!” Suddenly, Gu Han, who had been nearly insane, showed determination. His body glowed erratically, and another layer of Wuliang Divine Light emanated from him, even triggering the forces of heaven and earth! Under Huang Long’s pressure, Gu Han was attempting another breakthrough to achieve sainthood! This was a sign before achieving sainthood! Seeing this, Huang Long was somewhat surprised, but his expression remained calm. Countless fire dragons flew out of his eyes, instantly wrapping around the opponent and crushing those layers of Wuliang Divine Light to pieces. Then, Gu Han burned like a sea of fire. “Ah!” Cries of agony came from the sea of fire, sending chills down the spines of the disciples of Wuliang Gate.

“Huang Long, you can’t kill me. Fate has decreed that I must achieve sainthood—I must become a saint!” Yet soon after, a roar of resentment and fury rang out.
Gu Han from the Wuliang Sect fought desperately to resist Huang Long’s holy fire attacks while continuing to harness the power of heaven and earth.
“Is that so?” Huang Long replied calmly, raising his right hand and slapping down.
That slap seemed to make even heaven and earth tremble. Without even seeing any handprint, Gu Han appeared to have been struck by a devastating blow. With a scream of rage, his entire body exploded.
A powerful warrior at the peak of the twelfth era vanished completely from existence!
“Fate has doomed you to never become a saint!” Huang Long said coldly as he watched Gu Han explode.
In the presence of a saint, even the strongest warriors at the peak of an era are nothing but ants—easily destroyed with a mere gesture!
Only after achieving sainthood could Huang Long truly understand the power of a saint.
When Gu Han exploded and perished, the other disciples of the Wuliang Sect fled in panic. But before they could escape the treasure vault, they too exploded, meeting the same fate as Gu Han.
Since Huang Long’s achievement of sainthood could not be revealed, he had no choice but to kill them all.
After dealing with Gu Han and the others, Huang Long turned, raised his hand, and sent dozens of beams of golden light into Susan, Livya, and the members of the Huang family.
All the restrictions placed by Gu Han inside their bodies were removed.
“Second brother, you… you’ve finally achieved sainthood!” With the restrictions lifted, Huang Yi and the others rushed to Huang Long, their faces filled with joy.
Oke, Pi Long, Thunder Beast, and the others also came forward excitedly, bowing before the saint and wishing him eternal life!
Huang Long told Oke and the others to stand up and smiled at Huang Yi. “Mm, second brother, I’ve achieved sainthood!”
“That’s great!” Huang Yi exclaimed happily.
Susan, Livya, and Vitya stared at Huang Long with tears in their eyes—tears of joy!
