I have changed my destiny and become an unparalleled immortal.

"Dad! I did it!"

Gu Chengfeng leaped up from the dried-up pool bottom, his dark golden witch-like markings faintly visible beneath his skin.

It exudes terrifying blood energy fluctuations.

"Good lad!"

Gu Yun burst into laughter.

At this moment, Xue Wuyai, who was half-dead from being struck by lightning in the corner, was staring at Gu Yun with a venomous gaze.

"Gu Yun...you destroyed my foundation and stole my sect's fortune...Our ancestor will soon break through his seclusion, and you and your son will not leave the Far Northern Wilderness Tomb alive today!"

Gu Yun's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and a murderous intent suddenly arose.

He was by nature a decisive and ruthless person, and strode forward, ready to smash him into a pulp.

However, just as his fist was about to land...

"Don't kill Xue Wuya, if you kill him, Qianyan will die."

The message on the mysterious jade pendant he had dug out of the snow flashed through Gu Yun's mind.

Gu Yun's fist stopped abruptly half an inch from Xue Wuyai's brow, and the violent force of the punch blasted a large hole in the rock wall behind Xue Wuyai.

"Oh shit!"

Gu Yun gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath.

Although he didn't know what this seemingly random warning was all about, he would never gamble with anything that involved Mo Qianyan's life.

"You're lucky to be alive today, you old bat!"

Gu Yunfei kicked Xue Wuyai hard in the dantian, completely crippling him and knocking him unconscious.

At the same time, the stone walls above the cave began to tremble violently.

Countless terrifying pressures from the Golden Core stage were surging in through the passage; the Blood Fiend Valley's reinforcements had already reached their peak.

"Wind, let's go!"

Gu Yun grabbed Gu Chengfeng's shoulder and, without hesitation, took out the mysterious jade pendant from his storage ring and crushed it.

"Snap!"

An extremely mysterious force of spacetime laws instantly transformed into a silver-white pillar of light, enveloping Gu Yun and his son.

"Boom!!"

Just as the sky was filled with demonic artifacts and spells shattering the dome of the underground palace and crashing into the pool of blood for the Nascent Soul stage, a flash of silver light appeared, and the figures of Gu Yun and his son vanished without a trace.

……

"Whoosh!"

Ten thousand miles away, in a vast snow forest that is covered by ice and snow all year round, space suddenly distorted and cracked open with a silver rift.

Gu Yun and Gu Chengfeng landed steadily on the thick snow.

Gu Yun looked up and took a deep breath of the bone-chilling air.

"This icy, spiritual energy... and that solitary peak piercing the clouds in the distance..."

Gu Yun was suddenly stunned, a look of extreme astonishment flashing in his eyes.

"Supreme Heartless Peak? This is a hundred miles outside the Cold Moon Palace?!"

He stared intently at the jade pendant fragments that had turned to dust in his hand, a storm raging within him. Not only was the spatial teleportation of this jade pendant extremely stable, but its coordinates were also remarkably accurate, reaching right to the doorstep of the Cold Moon Palace.

"Dad, this teleportation talisman is amazing! It sent us straight home?"

Gu Chengfeng moved his powerful body and said excitedly.

But Gu Yun couldn't laugh; his expression was unpredictable.

"Do not kill Xue Wuyai, for if you do, Qianyan will die. After Chengfeng awakens his bloodline, crush the jade pendant and leave. After leaving, take the Hanyue Sect away from their base and find another place to live in seclusion."

The message engraved on the jade pendant was now echoing wildly in his mind.

"Is Qianyan in danger?!"

Gu Yun's heart tightened, and an overwhelming sense of panic surged within her.

He grabbed Gu Chengfeng: "Stop talking nonsense, return to the sect at full speed!"

"boom!"

The father and son transformed into two ferocious afterimages, tearing through the wind and snow, and sped toward the gates of the Cold Moon Palace at top speed.

……

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Gu Yun completely ignored the guards at the mountain gate and crashed into the courtyard of the Supreme Heartless Peak like a cannonball.

"Thousand Faces!!"

Gu Yun pushed open the bedroom door with great anxiety, her breathing becoming rapid.

However, the scene before him left him frozen in place.

Inside the sleeping quarters, the brazier was burning brightly.

Mo Qianyan, dressed in a simple white palace gown, was lounging on a soft couch, flipping through an ancient book in her hand.

Hearing Gu Yun's hurried banging on the door, she frowned slightly, raised her clear, cold eyes, and gave him a disgruntled look.

"You reckless brute, why are you acting like you've been chased by a ghost after just one trip? What kind of behavior is this, shouting and yelling like that? Has Chengfeng's Spirit-Severing Body been resolved?"

Mo Qianyan's voice was clear and crisp, her breathing was steady, and her complexion was rosy. There was no sign of her dying at all.

It couldn't be better.

Gu Yunchang let out a long sigh of relief, feeling that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

He strode forward and pulled Mo Qianyan into his arms, then used his divine sense to thoroughly examine her entire body three times over.

There was no poisoning, no hidden injuries, no curses, and the plant was thriving.

"What are you doing? You smell like dirt all over yourself, go wash up right now!"

Mo Qianyan was choked by him and couldn't breathe, so she playfully slapped his shoulder.

Gu Yun released her and looked at her unharmed appearance, but the strong sense of unease in his mind grew stronger and stronger.

He slowly opened his palm, looking at the tiny bit of jade pendant residue in his hand.

He hadn't had time to investigate thoroughly in the desolate northern tomb earlier due to the urgency of the situation, but now that he had calmed down...

What made his scalp tingle even more was that the trace of aura remaining on the jade pendant was clearly his own blood and qi of the same origin.

"This jade pendant... is not some ancient treasure at all..."

Gu Yun's pupils suddenly contracted, and a crazy idea exploded in his mind.

"This jade pendant, was it a gift from me?"

"It was my future self who used the 'Book of Destiny' to reverse time and send me back to the snowy wilderness of the far north!"

Gu Yun gasped, feeling as if struck by lightning, and instantly understood everything.

Why was the jade pendant so precisely buried on his path when he was digging through the snow?

Why did the message on the jade pendant demonstrate such precise control over the situation?

Why are the coordinates teleported to exactly 100 miles outside Hanyue Palace?

Because that's what he himself planned for the future.

"If I hadn't seen this jade pendant and that warning when I was in front of the blood pool, I would have killed Xue Wuyai with a single punch..."

Gu Yun followed this logic and deduced further, his forehead instantly breaking out in a fine layer of cold sweat.

If Xue Wuyai dies in the desolate northern tomb, it could trigger a terrifying chain of events.

Perhaps Xue Wuyai has some kind of vicious blood curse from the Blood Fiend Valley patriarch in his body. Once he dies, the blood curse will descend from afar on Mo Qianyan, who has the deepest karmic connection with Gu Yun.

Alternatively, Xue Wuyai's death might completely enrage the old monster of Blood Fiend Valley, causing him to break through his cultivation and descend upon Cold Moon Palace, thus triggering a cataclysmic disaster that would lead to Mo Qianyan's demise and the destruction of Cold Moon Palace.

Regardless of the possibility, the future self clearly experienced that irreversible tragedy.

Only by paying an extremely terrifying price in lifespan could he activate the "Book of Destiny Change" to reverse time, sending the jade pendant engraved with warnings and teleportation arrays back to the past, thus forcibly severing the timeline that led to Qianyan's death.

"Gu Yun, what's wrong? You look so pale?"

Seeing Gu Yun's unpredictable expression, Mo Qianyan took his hand with some concern.

Gu Yun snapped out of his daze, grabbed Mo Qianyan's soft hand tightly, and his expression became more serious than ever before.

However, the last sentence on the jade pendant was like a sword hanging over one's head.

After leaving, he took the Cold Moon Sect away from their base and found another place to live in seclusion.

The fact that one's future self could leave behind such a warning, almost leading to the entire clan's flight, indicates that Blood Fiend Valley's revenge, or some kind of irresistible and terrifying disaster, is about to befall the present Cold Moon Palace.

"Qianyan, there's no time to explain. You must believe me immediately."

Gu Yun stared intently at Mo Qianyan, his tone resolute and unwavering.

"Immediately ring the highest-level Cold Moon Golden Bell! Summon all elders and inner disciples!"

Mo Qianyan was taken aback: "What happened? Why are you gathering everyone?"

Gu Yun took a deep breath and spoke slowly and deliberately:

"move place!"

"Pack up the entire library, treasure vault, and herb garden! Before sunset today, we must uproot the entire Cold Moon Palace, evacuate the Northern Spiritual Domain, and find a new secluded paradise to live in seclusion!"

"Move? Leave the Cangbei Spirit Realm?"

Upon hearing Gu Yun's resolute words, a look of shock appeared on Mo Qianyan's beautiful face.

The Cold Moon Palace has been established for thousands of years and has a profound foundation, all rooted in this continuous snow-capped mountain and icy plain.

Now that Gu Yungang has just returned, before he can even catch his breath, he actually wants to uproot the entire sect.

"Gu Yun, what trouble have you caused in the Northern Wilderness Tomb? Even if Blood Fiend Valley wants revenge, my Cold Moon Palace, with its protective array, may not be afraid of them!"

Mo Qianyan frowned, her dignified pride as the head of a palace making her instinctively resist this decision that felt like that of a stray dog.

Gu Yun's heart skipped a beat when he saw Mo Qianyan's confident demeanor.

His mind raced, calculating whether there might be an old monster in Blood Fiend Valley.

Gu Yun suddenly turned serious and stared straight at Mo Qianyan.
